The Poison Dragon Butterfly is very beautiful, with purple dragon-patterned wings and a purple-gold body.
Its head resembles that of a Flood Dragon, with huge compound eyes.
It has scythe-like arms and a long tail similar to a scorpion’s.
It flaps its wings, and a purple halo appears.
Purple powder falls in the air, crackling as it descends.
"Congratulations, Poison Dragon Butterfly."
Zhang Lingxue could feel what the Poison Dragon Butterfly was called.
Surprised, Zhang Lingxue discovered that she had freed up a contract position, and she was delighted; such a surprise was truly wonderful.
"Ye Bai, your guess was correct; after the Gray Poison Moth evolved into the butterfly family, I now have two contract positions free, ahaha. <(*￣▽￣*)/"
"Then congratulations, teacher."
Ye Bai was genuinely envious of Zhang Lingxue’s talent, but his own unforgettable memory upon secondary awakening wasn’t bad either.
At this moment, Zhang Lingxue suddenly hesitated a bit, lightly parting her lips: "Ye Bai, I’ve already resigned as the head teacher."
"After the assessment, I will return to Imperial University."
"I’ll pave the way for you first, and then we, as master and apprentice, will be invincible at the Imperial Capital Research Institute."
"I’m not planning to move the equipment here; I’ll leave this research institute to you. Once you graduate, it will belong to Shen Mountain Middle School."
"This was an early agreement I made with the school."
Zhang Lingxue said emotionally, she had been here for a year, and the research institute had been built from scratch.
Of course, this was also thanks to her grandfather’s great support.
Ye Bai shrugged, showing an indifferent expression, but internally he was faintly excited.
Zhang Lingxue was actually giving him the research institute. Although he had to return it to Shen Mountain Middle School after his graduation, the research institute’s area was several times larger than the Cultivation House.
He could conduct experiments unrestrainedly, and he had some secrets he didn’t want Zhang Lingxue to know about.
"By the way, I’ve heard the first wave of the flood peak is approaching. The terrain around your Cultivation House is quite low; do you want to move your pet beasts here?"
Zhang Lingxue seemed to have heard some secret information from the Pet Beast Union and eventually disclosed some of it to Ye Bai.
Dark clouds filled the entire sky, like a huge black cloth.
Raindrops began to fall from the sky, hitting the ground and quickly forming small puddles.
The rushing river water, nourished by the rain, quickly rose, and the once calm river surface started to show violent waves.
Gradually, the sound of the river became indescribably noisy, like thousands of troops galloping in, and the roaring rainwater surged towards the river as if a dam had burst; the originally turbulent river water became much more turbid.
The rain formed a curtain, falling onto the streets, and some of the lower areas were already filled with rainwater.
Some floating debris like dead branches, leaves, gravel, and small stones were washed into the river.
The river water started to rise incessantly, causing President Wang to worry.
"The flood peak hasn’t even arrived, and yet the Jiaying River’s water has risen."
"If there is a breach in the dam, I will be guilty."
As the heavy rain poured, the turbid river water became even yellower.
At this time, Secretary Liang, wearing a raincoat, hurriedly ran over.
"President Wang, something’s wrong."
"Y has sent a new email."
Secretary Liang quickly relayed the content from Y to President Wang. The source of thɪs content is 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵⚑𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮⚑𝓷𝓮𝓽
After listening, President Wang’s expression changed.
"Y predicts a breach in the Qianjiang Section three days later; how is this possible? Our dikes are repaired and reinforced every year; how could they possibly collapse?"
"We have been monitoring these water management projects."
"There must be something fishy here; let’s go check it out."
President Wang stomped his foot and walked, struggling with each step, towards the Qianjiang Section.
By the time he reached the Qianjiang Section, senior water management experts were already there with equipment, inspecting the dike.
Their grim expressions indicated that the situation wasn’t good.
President Wang’s heart skipped a beat again: "Professor Wang, what’s happening now?"
Professor Wang looked at the freshly printed inspection report and handed it directly to President Wang.
"There are Exotic Beasts resembling rats nesting in the dike."
"They dug out a large hole inside."
"The rising river water drowned these Exotic Beasts, but the hole remained, potentially destabilizing the dike."
"It’s strange; three months ago, none of this was happening, so why now?"
The issue with the dike meant that this water management expert would also be held accountable.
"What do you think we should do? The flood peak is about to hit."
"If this section fails, those above us won’t be happy."
"If that happens, we’ll face severe consequences."
The water management expert scratched his head: "I remember you have someone with a skill to solidify earth into steel."
"Let’s have him reinforce those dikes for now, and I’ll think of something."
"Also, summon more Earth Element pet beasts, like Rock Giants and Mud Giants, to form the first layer of defense."
"This way, we can effectively mitigate the risk."
"Even if there is a breach in the dike, we won’t be afraid; the Rock Giants and Mud Giants will seal the gap immediately."
"President Wang, Mayor Jia, I suggest we first relocate the people living in the lower areas."
"This way, we can spend more energy protecting the people instead of searching for them."
