Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

Chen Zhao went to the headquarters of the Supernatural Association.

The strength of the people in the association has improved a lot.

As the saying goes, the leader plays the decisive factor.

If a weak person becomes the leader, he will not be recognized by the members.

But when a strong person is the leader, it doesn't matter whether the members want to recognize the leader.

It’s about whether the leader will recognize this member.

With Chen Zhao's current prestige in the association, no one questions whether he has the qualifications to serve as president.

What they need to worry about is whether Chen Zhao will find him inappropriate as a member of the association.

"President, the magic level of all members of our association has reached D level."

"What's the use of having magic power alone? It can't improve your actual combat ability."

West was also helpless. When they were fighting, Chen Zhao didn't even see them.

And every time Chen Zhao needs to take action, it is basically a big trouble that cannot be solved.

For example, in the last crisis in Irvine, it's not like they didn't take action.

But facing Abaddon, they were all killed instantly.

In fact, their actual combat capabilities are quite good, as long as they are not facing monsters like Abaddon or the source of corruption.

Since Pamela led the Evil Spirit Group, if the members of the association did not have tasks every day, they would fight and train with the Evil Spirit Group.

So each of them has very rich experience in fighting evil spirits.

At this moment, Qiurage and Batilu ran in front of Chen Zhao.

"President, we have improved the magic power testing instrument again. Now we no longer use pointers to express values, but use electronic numbers, which can more effectively and intuitively obtain magic data. Moreover, we have raised the upper limit of this magic value to Five thousand, I will definitely be able to test your magic data this time."

Both of them were very excited, and they were both committed to the work of calculating Chen Zhao's magic data.

However, the first two tests ended in failure.

The threshold of the first initial version of the magic test instrument was 500, and the second time was 1500.

The results of these two tests showed that Chen Zhao's magic value far exceeded the threshold on the meter.

So this time, after research and experiments, they finally completed this magic testing instrument with a threshold of 5,000 magic values.

"Oh? Where is the instrument? Didn't you bring it with you?"

"In our lab."

"Okay, I'll go take a look. I also want to know what my magic value is."

West also followed, in fact he was not the only one.

After learning that Chen Zhao was going to test the magic value again, even Erdos ran to the laboratory.

Everyone at the headquarters crowded at the entrance of the laboratory.

"Where's the instrument?" Chen Zhao asked.

"Here, that's the one." Qiurage pointed to a nearly two-meter-long instrument placed in the corner.

This instrument is very similar to a height and weight measuring device, but there are two cylindrical spheres in front of it.

"President, just stand up, hold the two spiritual stone wooden handrails, and release your magic power."

"So big?"

"There is no way. In order to increase the upper limit of magic power capacity, more complex circuits are needed, and larger spiritual stone and wood transmission are needed."

Chen Zhao stood on the instrument and reached out to hold the two spiritual stone wooden armrests.

"Okay, let's release the magic, President."

Chen Zhao's magic power was released.

In an instant, the electronic meter numbers on the magic testing instrument soared.

Finally, all the numbers turned into 0,000, and then everyone smelled a burning smell.

"Stop...stop quickly, President, stop the magic output." Qiurage was shocked.

But it was too late, the circuit of the magic testing instrument emitted electric sparks, and then burned.

Chen Zhao quickly stepped down from the instrument. Qiao Lin Nash went up and directly released a cold air to extinguish the fire on the instrument.

But by this time, the instrument had been destroyed. Although the fire was extinguished, many lines had been destroyed.

Jurag was about to cry, but he and Batilu worked together to create this.

"Why are you crying? It's just an instrument. Just sit on it again."

"President, I asked someone to buy these two pieces of spirit stone wood from overseas. Each piece of spirit stone wood costs 200,000 US dollars."

Chen Zhao's eyes widened: "In other words, you just destroyed 400,000 US dollars?"

"President, you destroyed it." Qiurage said: "In addition, including the research and development of the instrument, it cost almost half a million US dollars."

"Fake, if you hadn't pulled me to test my magic power, this wouldn't have happened. So in the final analysis, it's your fault." Chen Zhao argued: "In addition, West, your experiment on Jurag Is the budget of the laboratory too loose? It cost half a million US dollars to make an instrument that is not used. Do you think our funds are sufficient this year?"

"President, we do still have a lot of funds left. In addition, our superior department has reduced our budget for next year."

"Reduce our budget? You told our superiors that next year our budget will be doubled, at least more than 10 million US dollars, less than 10 million US dollars. Then if we encounter a situation like the Irvine incident in the future, we will Let them handle the counter-terrorism part by themselves. In addition, next year's budget must be paid within this year. If it is not paid, we will go on strike temporarily."

"ah?"

"Ah, what, do my words not count?"

"All right."

"In addition, this year's budget should be used up this year. How much money does our association still have on its books?"

"Two and a half million dollars."

"It's almost the end of the year. Calculate the year-end bonuses of the association members, organize a trip by the way, and spend the money that should be spent."

"The president is wise," Erdos shouted.

"President Yingming..."

It’s the year-end bonus, and it’s organizing a trip.

The members of the association had no reason to refuse, except that West, who needed to go to negotiate, had a bitter look on his face.

Everyone is excited and their work has been very fruitful this year.

They can also be tough and ask their superior departments for funds.

Who gave them a tough president.

It’s okay not to give them any funding. If something goes wrong, they will solve it on their own.

"President, where do you think the organization has been traveling?" West asked.

"Go wherever you spend more money... The first two times I went to New York and San Francisco, I didn't let you have a good time. I will compensate you this time. If you want to have fun, go to the expensive ones, stay in the best hotels, and eat the best food." Good food, except for whoring and gambling, all normal expenses are paid by the association.”

Erdos stopped talking, because he had a good time playing both times, and of course, he didn't mind playing a third time.

"President, I love you so much." Pattaya shouted excitedly.

"President, there are only so many people in our association. No matter how much we spend, we can't spend more than two million U.S. dollars."

“Isn’t it okay if the year-end bonus is higher?”
