Online Fortune Telling: Your Son Has Another Dad-Chapter 345 - 343: Continuing the Mountain Search

Lu Heng smiled faintly, seemingly indifferent.

Director He and Group Leader Qi exchanged a helpless glance.

If they weren’t seeking help from him, why would the two of them endure such frustration?

Never mind, let’s discuss after returning to the country!

After swallowing his anger, Director He said, "Old Daoist, the Eagle Country has dispatched another investigation team, along with a special security squad."

"In yesterday’s meeting, the countries decided to continue the mountain search tomorrow."

"Once a vampire zombie is found, don’t act alone; make sure to lure it into the ambush circle."

"If capturing it is not possible, it will be executed on the spot..."

Director He briefly recounted yesterday’s meeting room discussion.

This time, because of Minma’s government’s proactive involvement, not only did they secure several armed helicopters, but they also sent over a dozen tanks and armored vehicles.

Moreover, in order to support this operation and avoid a repeat of Leonard’s tragedy, the Eagle Country government has even temporarily dispatched a fleet.

From this, one can see that the Eagle Country is determined to capture the vampire zombie.

"Old Daoist, prepare for tomorrow; we’ll be joining the action as well."

Group Leader Qi looked at Lu Heng and said politely.

The viciousness of the vampire zombie was evident to all.

After all, it even drained Leonard of the special forces combat team to a dried corpse.

Aside from some light weapons temporarily provided by Feng Shun, their emergency response team lacked everything.

Not to mention any special forces bodyguards.

Thus, the present Taoist Zhenyuan naturally became their last protective figure.

This is also why, even after Zhenyuan revealed the "Spiritual Qi Revival," they remained amicable and didn’t act out.

"Rest assured, young friends!"

"As long as I, the old Daoist, am here, not a hair shall be harmed upon you by that demon!"

Lu Heng smiled slightly, his voice resolute.

"We’ll trouble you, old Daoist!"

Hearing this, Director He secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

In his heart, although this old Daoist had many annoying traits, he was a man of his word.

As long as a promise is made, one can rest assured.

As for doubt?

How could it be?

If Zhenyuan were not a man of his word, how could he take a newly acquainted little Daoist around the world to cure his incurable disease and fulfill an old promise?

They admire such promise-keeping, oath-abiding people the most.

Beside him, Group Leader Qi was all smiles as well.

Having been scolded by the director this morning, he held back his anger—for what?

For this very assurance!

After seeing off Director He and Group Leader Qi, Lu Heng summoned the Shadow Beast, instructing it to take on Zhenyuan’s appearance and remain on guard here.

Meanwhile, he activated an Invisibility Talisman, sneaking out of the area unnoticed.

He planned to scout out the "ambush circle" Director He mentioned.

To know oneself and the enemy is to ensure victory in every battle!

Strive to stir up another major incident tomorrow or the day after!

...

At nine in the morning the next day,

The international investigation teams began to gather in the area as planned.

This mountain search operation was centered around the site of Leonard and Wu Tingjue’s encounter last time, gradually expanding outward.

Du Danmin, who had been confined for days, was also brought out by the Eagle Country investigation team leader, Mark.

"Group Leader Mark, I suspect Dr. Danmin is connected to that vampire monster."

"Bringing her along might not be the best idea for this operation, right?"

On the mountaintop, Feng Shun approached Mark, frowning.

"No, having her with us is perfect!"

Mark, hearing this, turned to look at Feng Shun with a smile.

"But..."

Feng Shun wanted to continue.

"Mr. Feng, there are no ’buts’ in my book!"

Mark maintained his smile, saying, "I too suspect she is related to the vampire monster."

"Precisely because of their connection that I brought her along."

"Don’t you think she makes an excellent bait?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Shun immediately thought of something.

He glanced at Du Danmin, who was silent and standing midway up the mountain, and gently nodded.

"Alright, Mr. Feng, don’t worry about too much."

"We just need to find that monster, draw it into the pre-set ambush circle, and all our problems will be solved!"

Mark patted Feng Shun’s shoulder confidently.

Feng Shun could only muster a forced smile in response.

Truth be told, he wanted to warn him not to underestimate the vampire monster.

Yet, seeing Mark’s stubborn demeanor, he swallowed his words in the end.

Meanwhile, the international investigation teams began the mountain search.

The Dragon Country investigation team was tasked with searching the southwestern mountain forest.

This forest was dense with vegetation, complex terrain, various wildlife, and occasionally insects popped up unexpectedly.

"Do you think we can find that vampire zombie this time?"

A tall male team member asked.

"Don’t know!"

"But I hope we don’t find it!"

A female team member shook her head plainly beside him.

"Why don’t you want to find it? If we do, we could be heroes!"

The male member said, visibly surprised.

The female looked at him as if he was naive, then replied, "That vampire zombie is so powerful, even the Eagle Country people couldn’t withstand it!"

"Do you think we’d be able to escape alive if we found it?"

The male member laughed, shaking his head, "What’s there to be afraid of?"

"We don’t need to engage directly; once we see the black coffin, we just call for backup."

"I’m afraid if we find the coffin, we won’t have time to call for help!"

A chubby young man beside them spoke quietly.

"No way?"

"Isn’t it fine if we don’t disturb it?"

The male member asked curiously.

"The key is, how do you know if it’s asleep?"

"What if it’s always awake?"

The chubby young man retorted.

"It’s a zombie, a monster."

"And you’re just an ordinary person."

"What makes you confident you can find it first without it noticing you?"

The female member also chimed in.

"This..."

The two of them, going back and forth, left the male member speechless.

He pouted, his gaze suddenly catching sight of Zhenyuan by Director He and Group Leader Qi.

Suddenly, his face lit up with joy as he smiled, "Don’t we have Taoist Zhenyuan with us?"

"With Zhenyuan’s abilities, he’ll surely keep us safe!"

This time, it was the chubby young man and the female member who fell silent.

As members of the Religious Affairs Bureau, they had some understanding of Zhenyuan’s capabilities.

Though Zhenyuan might not be able to eliminate the vampire zombie, he should be able to protect them.

"I think I see that black coffin!"

Just then, a voice filled with terror suddenly came over the radio...
