Chapter 298 - Explosion

n

n

n

nAfter the Federation discovered the blue crystal mine and the

n

nMeteorite Company’s former secret base, they had a discussion.

n

nAs they had not triggered the pre-mission, they were unable to crack the laboratory’s internal password to obtain the crystallized form.

n

nTherefore, the Federation decided to temporarily put the mission on hold and send people to guard it 24 hours a day. When the time was right, they would think of a way to obtain the crystallized form and mine the blue crystal ore.

n

nUnexpectedly, Night Owl obtained the laboratory’s password in advance and took the lead in taking action against the blue crystal mine.

n

nAfter discovering Night Owl’s movements, Zhang Zhe immediately received the authorization and rushed to the desert to take charge of the operation to deal with Night Owl.

n

nHis initial thought was to directly eliminate Night Owl and obtain the crystallized form from them through interrogation.

n

nUnfortunately, he was one step too late.

n

nThrough the player’s special talent skill, the Federation had discovered that Night Owl had already planted a large number of explosives inside the iron mine.

n

nOnce they sent people into the iron mine, Night Owl only needed to detonate the explosives, and it would be mutual destruction.

n

nNot only would the federal team suffer heavy casualties, but the crystallized form that was inside the iron mine would also be affected.

n

nThe crystallized form was very valuable for research. It would be a pity to destroy it.

n

nThe most serious consequence was that if the explosion did not kill the crystallized form, the crystallized form would be freed by accident and absorbed the energy of the blue crystal ore without limit…

n

nAfter consulting his superiors, Zhang Zhe decided to let Night Owl’s men take away the crystallized form in the laboratory directly.

n

nThen, he would wait for Night Owl to come out of the cave before capturing all of them in one fell swoop! Annihilate them in one shot!

n

n“Captain, they’re out!”

n

nZhang Zhe gripped his guns tightly.

n

nIt had been a long time since he had been this nervous.

n

nHe looked up and saw a group of masked players walking out of the cave.

n

nAt the end of the team, a few players were carrying a heavy crystal coffin.

n

n“Sir, should we do it?”

n

n“No, wait a little longer. Wait for them to enter the encirclement.”

n

nZhang Zhe said in a low voice as he stared fixedly at this group of players.

n

nOnly when he saw his party retreat from the entrance of the cave and enter the encirclement did Zhang Zhe suddenly wave his hand and shout.

n

n“Quick! Move out!”

n

nThe elite party of the Federation that was lying in ambush in the surroundings took out their guns and crossbow arrows at almost the same time and quickly surrounded the Night Owl players from all directions.

n

nThe sudden encirclement caused a momentary disturbance in the team.

n

n“It’s the people from the Federation. Don’t panic!”

n

nLiu Keyi raised her hand, indicating for the team to calm down and stay in place quietly.

n

nZhang Zhe’s heart skipped a beat.

n

nThey didn’t resist?

n

nWhy did they look so calm?

n

nZhang Zhe held a double-barreled shotgun in his hand and quickly walked forward, walking in front of the leader, Liu Keyi.

n

n“I suspect that all of you are related to the anti-federal organization, Night Owl. Put down your weapons and follow me back for investigation.”

n

nLiu Keyi surveyed her surroundings as she raised her hands high.

n

nThe other players hired by the Night Owl organization also raised their hands.

n

n“Bang!”

n

nThe crystal coffin landed heavily on the ground.

n

nLiu Keyi knew that there was a high probability that the Federation had already noticed their movements, so she was not surprised by this attack.

n

n“Captain Zhang Zhe, I’ve heard a lot about you. There are many comrades in the organization who have fought with you. They all say that you’re a hypocritical and cowardly person.”

n

nZhang Zhe stared at the masked Liu Keyi. “Who are you? Take off your mask and tell me everything you know. I can give you a way out.”

n

n“The crystallized form in its infancy evolves and grows by devouring and absorbing the blue crystal. The entire process is relatively slow, but if the crystallized form accidentally comes into contact with the T-virus while absorbing the blue crystal’s energy…”

n

nLiu Keyi was unmoved and continued to speak in a provocative manner.

n

n“Captain Zhang Zhe, why don’t you guess what kind of wondrous chemical reaction it will have?”

n

nZhang Zhe’s pupils constricted slightly.

n

nThe Federation’s research on crystallized forms was far less thorough than the Night Owl organization’s.

n

n“What will happen?”

n

n“A high-intensity mutation in a short period of time. The strength of a mutated creature can reach Tier 3 to Tier 4, and there’s even a small chance that it can reach Tier 5.”

n

n“Their evolution will become unusually unstable. During the process of evolution, they are extremely easy to explode. They are also very easy to be affected by explosions, resulting in a chain of explosions.”

n

n“The explosion will also stimulate the crystallized form to a certain extent, allowing them to evolve at an unimaginable speed.”

n

nAs Liu Keyi spoke, she opened her hand, revealing the explosive detonator in her hand.

n

n“Be careful!!!”

n

nTang Chu shouted.

n

nThe Federation soldiers all took a few steps back at the same time, pointing their guns at Liu Keyi.

n

nZhang Zhe stared at Liu Keyi. “Are you threatening me? What do you want?”

n

n“Threatening? No, we, Night Owl, never negotiate with terrorist organizations.”

n

nLiu Keyi’s eyes were secretly filled with anger. As she spoke, she fiercely pressed on the remote control device in her hand.

n

n“Go to hell! This is just a little bit of interest!”

n

nTang Chu shouted, “Get out of the way!!”

n

nThe well-trained elite team of the Federation instantly spread out in all directions.

n

n“Boom!!!”

n

nIn the next second, a violent explosion resounded throughout the Gobi Desert.

n

nA thick cloud of smoke and dust rose up from the central area.

n

nThe crystal coffin instantly exploded, along with the explosives buried within the cave!

n

nNot far away, feeling the tremors under his feet, Fang Heng raised his head and drank a bottle of coffee to calm himself down.

n

nWhat a guy!

n

nNight Owl was really a group of ruthless characters.

n

nSacrificing a small life to give a ruthless blow to the Federation.

n

nIn fact, Fang Heng had just learned from Deng Xin about Liu Keyi’s follow-up plan.

n

nThey placed bombs on the crystal coffin and their bodies.

n

nIf the plan went smoothly, they would take the crystal coffin to the nearest Federation shelter.

n

nThen they would self-destruct.

n

nIf there was an accident on the way, they would self-destruct.

n

nAfter the mission was completed, Night Owl would give a generous compensation to this group of hired suicide players.

n

nMo Jiawei also gulped and exclaimed, “Night Owl… They are all a bunch of lunatics. It’s better not to deal with them in the future.”

n

nThe dust gradually dispersed.

n

nFang Heng took out his binoculars and looked into the distance.

n

nThere were seven or eight light red worm creatures crouching on the ground.

n

nTheir bodies were already nearly two meters long.

n

nAfter taking a closer look, Fang Heng realized that the worms themselves were not light red.

n

nA series of scales-like red crystals grew out of the originally white skin of the crystallized worms. White teeth were exposed from its mouth.

n

n“Crystallized form, currently at larva stage.”

n

n“Special mutated creature (Tier 4 mutated creature, can be advanced).”

n

nMo Jiawei covered his left eye, narrating the information about the crystallized form obtained from the skill.

n

n“Unknown creature, living creature with a DNA structure similar to the primogenitor virus.”

n

n“Slow movement. Currently, it can absorb the energy of the crystallized form, and it also has the preliminary devouring ability. Through devouring flesh and blood, it can also evolve and improve, but the devouring efficiency is relatively low.”

n

n“The current crystallized form has enhanced crystallized scales that can absorb damage. The white fangs have a lethal tearing effect. It can devour 99% of matter.”

n

n“The living body currently only possesses the lowest-level intelligence. It can devour flesh and blood through perception.”

n

n“Unknown creature. Player needs to increase level to obtain more information.”

n

nAs he spoke, Mo Jiawei put down his hand and turned to look at Fang Heng.

n

n“It evolved to a Tier 4 mutated body just like that? It rose by 4 levels?”
