《Start With Contracting Sprites》Chapter 207: Oh No, The Air Is Poisonous! (First Update)
Advertisement
At night.
Xuan Yue hid behind the clouds, and the stars in the sky were very sparse.
Mole Man, Chubby Man, and Tall Skinny Man left the rental house ten minutes apart from one another, and met at an intersection just a few hundred meters from the laboratory.
This place was remote.
One of the two street lamps by the side of the road was broken, while the other was emitting a dim and yellow glow, like a candle that could be extinguished at any moment.
Even their shadows couldn't be seen clearly.
Looking further ahead, there were no other buildings around. It was pitch-black, with only the end. Light came from the imposing silver building.
It reflected some light to the surroundings.
"Old Li, can we really succeed?"
At this point, the chubby man was a little nervous. "What if the people from the laboratory bump into us?"
He made a gesture of slicing his neck, but his fat palm was shaking a little.
The man with the mole frowned. "Don't kill people. If you kill people, especially people from the laboratory, it will definitely attract the attention of the local associations. Why can we hide for so many years? It's because we've never made a big commotion."
"We'll only take away items that are easy to carry and valuable, then leave Yunhua City and Tiannan Province!
"As for being seen by others?" He shook his head, not worried at all. "We have three elite-levels, can't we subdue ordinary-level guards?"
"Unless that high-level Sprite Cultivator sees us, according to my estimation, he may have more than one elite…"
The chubby man trembled again when he heard that.
He shook so much that the fat all over its body was shaking.
Mole Man Old Li glared at him resentfully and said in a low voice, "But Sprite Cultivators' sprites have never been good at fighting. Their sprites may have developed pretty well, but they don't have any battle experience. They may not even know any unique skills…"
"Once we bump into them, if we can fight, we'll subdue them and quickly snatch their valuable items."
"If we can't win, let the sprites hold them back. We'll leave immediately."
The man with the mole had considered everything quite thoroughly.

If they succeeded, they would be very rich.
Even if they didn't, he had already prepared an escape route.
He had a more complete plan. If the local associations reacted too strongly, or if that high-level Sprite Cultivator had a lot of power and searched them hard… he would throw the lanky man and the fat man out as bait.
He would escape by the water route.
Old Li's words gave the other two tranquilizers.
The three of them put on their hoods, hid under the night sky, and headed towards the laboratory.
Finally, they stopped dozens of meters away.
Mole Man was the first to move. He spread his five fingers, and after a low call, a Six-eyed Flying Fish more than half a meter long with fins like wings appeared in the air and was summoned in front of him.
The tall and thin man followed closely behind and summoned the Night Dream Owl.
The chubby man's actions were a little clumsy, but five to six seconds later, he also summoned his Explosive Mushroom.
Apart from the Explosive Mushroom which looked like a fatty with a height of 180 and a weight of 280, the other two were small sprites.
"Investigate."
The man with the mole whispered to the tall and thin man.
His Six-Eyed Flying Fish flew into the sky silently.
The Dream Owl also followed.
A moment later…
"There's a guard sleeping in the security booth, but his Leaf Blade Warrior isn't sleeping."
The man with the mole paused and continued, "On the left side of the wall, there's also a Superpower Gibbon in the corner. It should be another guard's sprite, but it's asleep."
"Use your Dream Owl to hypnotize the Leaf Blade Warrior. Don't affect that guard, in case it triggers the protective screen."
A bird with a beak and claws in the shape of hooks, with white and black feathers on its body spread out in radioactive patches, flapped its wings lightly and flew onto the security booth.
Its head rose slightly, and its mouth trembled slightly.
A low, almost imperceptible sound spread softly.
Two minutes later, the tall and thin man said to the man with the mole, "Old Li, it's done. That Superpower Gibbon has also been hypnotized. Even if we do anything, we won't wake it up."

"Yes…"
Mole Man nodded slightly.
He then got the Six-Eyed Flying Fish to pull the black bag and cover the surveillance camera in front of the door.
...
Two minutes later, the three of them crossed the Extendable Door and arrived in front of the experiment building.
"It's an electronic door. Forcefully destroying it will definitely make a police report. What should we do?"
"Jump through the window and then enter through the window on the second floor. Let our sprites help us."
Only the chubby man had a bitter look on his face.
However, an Explosive Mushroom with an even more bitter expression lifted him up, and a Dream Owl grabbed his clothes and flew up. The round fat man finally succeeded in flipping through the window of the bathroom on the second floor.
At this moment…
They still didn't make any commotion.
The people in the laboratory slept soundly.
The three of them looked at one another and saw the joy in one another's eyes.
"Let's do it!"
...
On the third floor, in one of the most luxurious suites within the dormitory area.
In the bedroom, Su Hao hugged the blanket and slept until his head had sunken under the pillow.
Not far from his pillow, Butterfly was sleeping peacefully under a small blanket.
Suddenly…
Its big eyes opened and it sat up.
Looking at Su Hao who was sleeping like a dead pig, Butterfly considered and decided not to wake him up.
Instead, it flew out of the bedroom and to the door of the suite.
It pressed against the door and released its perception.
"Gurgle~"
In its perception, those unfamiliar auras made it wary. It used two seconds to consider…
Crack ~
The door twisted slightly, and Psychic power enveloped the surroundings to prevent sound from spreading.
After the door opened and a gap was revealed, one of the spiritual orbs that Butterfly had placed beside its antennae as an accessory flew out of the gap.
It used the power of the spiritual orb to extend its antennae -- this was the further development of Butterfly's spiritual orb.
It extended its antennae and secretly scouted. Ten seconds later…
Butterfly discovered those infiltrators.
Three people.
Three sprites.
"Gurgle(▼へ▼)~!"
It was angry!
Someone actually wanted to steal from its house!
Unforgivable!!
Butterfly really wanted to rush out and throw out a few Energy Balls to blast those people!
But...
There were too many valuable devices in the building. Money… Logic told Butterfly not to fight directly.
It had to be smart.
It thought about it, then flew out of the door gap, closed the door, and locked it from the inside with residual Psychic power.
It flew towards the stairs, its tiny figure disappearing into the darkness.
Only its big eyes became brighter, burning with anger.
...
Elsewhere…
After Mole Man and the others circled the first and second floors, they couldn't find a suitable target, so they continued up the stairs.
"The equipment on the first floor is too cumbersome to carry, we can't move it. Let's go to the fourth and fifth floors, to the experiment area!"
Mole Man Old Li said softly.
The lanky man and the chubby man nodded repeatedly, their eyes filled with excitement.
Everything was going too smoothly!
So infiltrating a laboratory was that easy!
The chubby man seemed to see the cash flying towards him continuously.
He was excited.
He was so excited that his flesh was trembling.
When climbing the stairs, his legs moved a little faster.
"Calm down! Calm down!"
Mole Man said, "In the case that we don't succeed and we don't leave Yunhua City, we have to stay alert."
He commanded the Six-Eyed Flying Fish to fly at the front to investigate.
After confirming that there was no one, he held the armrest and advanced in the dark.
Step ~
Step ~
Step ~
In the darkness, there were only the soft footsteps of three people.
Suddenly…
Bang!
A dull sound came from behind.
At the same time, the chubby man's slightly panicked voice came. "My, my Explosive Mushroom fell!"
"Useless!"
Mole Man Old Li cursed silently and frowned.
He wanted to go down and see what was going on.
The Night Dream Owl not far away also tilted its head and fell from the armrest with a thud.
He felt that something was wrong.
It kept calling out in the contract, but there was no response from the Six-Eyed Flying Fish.
The next second…
A faint light shield suddenly appeared around him, the tall thin man, and the chubby man.
When Old Li saw this, his expression changed and he exclaimed,
"Oh no, the air is poisonous!"

The Successor
The Immortal God Emperor is dead...yet his Successor will one day arise. The worlds had long moved on from the greatest Cultivator of all time. The things that had been achieved and the advances made in the Immortal God Emperor's absence were nothing to turn one's nose up at. And yet, something was always missing. Because Cultivators, no matter the goals they pursue, always bow to the greater power. They seek it, they covet it for themselves, and they serve it with reverence. Shan Kai Lan was born into such a world. Born to two herb farmers whose cultivation did not surpass the Foundation Realm, yet who loved their son more than anything. Kai Lan was a child blessed by the Spiritual Plain, far more gifted and more intelligent than others his age. Yet the more profound his achievements, the greater the likelihood that his happy, peaceful life would be trampled on by those who desired his potential for themselves. The question of Kai Lan's journey becomes not whether he will reach the highest peak of cultivation, but what he will be forced to do to keep his young Clan, and the happiness it provides, at peace. Note to Reader: I am not of an Asian background, but this work is heavily influenced by Eastern stories and concepts. In saying that, it is an INFLUENCE only. Keep in mind that this is a fantasy work, and any butchering of names, concepts or cultural objects/places/subjects are not meant in any way to offend. With that in mind, Happy Reading! - Jelim
