Chapter 1806 Inspection
Evacuate?
Everyone looked at Fang Heng in confusion again.
“I’ve used a special tool on the corpse. It can produce a special mutation reaction on the corpse when used with necromancy. The level of the corpse is very high, and the strength of the mutated creature will also be greatly improved. With our current ability, we can’t deal with it.”
At this moment, everyone finally understood what the black fragment that Fang Heng had placed into the sarcophagus was.
Nasto asked after pondering for a moment, “Do we need to arrange for guards in advance?”
Lu Yanlong interrupted, “I suggest we don’t. It’ll make us look guilty.”
Nasto thought about it and felt that it made sense.
Everyone gathered around the protruding rock and sat down, waiting for the arrival of the federal team.
The players couldn’t help but feel uneasy.
Nasto wasn’t sure if he could avoid the Federation’s follow-up investigation and get rid of the blame.
Two hours later, the sun rose.
It was not until eight o’clock that Tabio, the head of the Federation’s Mission Department responsible for the special mission in the mausoleum, entered the cave under the lead of a group of federal soldiers.
Nasto immediately stood up to welcome Tabio.
“Sir!”
“Yes, you’re all here.” Tabio nodded at Nasto and said, “I heard from Michaux Game Company that there was a problem with the sarcophagus during the transportation process. I came to take a look.”
The head of the engineering department who came with Tabio said, “Sir! We have no problem with the transportation of the sarcophagus!”
The team from Michaux Company also arrived and immediately retorted, “Officers, the sarcophagus is a special item. It has spatial fluctuations. Due to improper storage during the transportation process, the life form inside the sarcophagus has mutated. There are obvious abnormalities in the data report…”
“The abnormality in the data is because we didn’t arrange it properly? This isn’t good, right? All of our placement procedures are by the predetermined standards. As for you saying that it was affected because of us, where’s the evidence?”
Tabio waved his hand, signaling for both parties to stop arguing.
All along, the head of the logistics department and the team from Michaux Game Company had been arguing with each other.
Tabio had other tasks to deal with, so he didn’t have time to listen to everyone’s banter.
“Alright, that’s it. Professor Pan, you said you have evidence that the corpse in the sarcophagus was damaged during transportation. We can start now.”
“Alright.”
Professor Pan from Michaux Company followed the team. He took a few steps forward and nodded at everyone.
Professor Pan looked to be in his early fifties, and he looked a little old-fashioned.
“Thank you for your trust, Sir. We found some extremely obvious abnormal data when we carried out the second inspection of the coffin. After a series of assessments, we confirmed that there was an abnormality during the transportation of the corpse.”
“Next, I will conduct a live examination of the sarcophagus to prove this to everyone.”
Professor Pan said and nodded at the two players behind him.
The two players from Michaux Company who were in charge of spatial science walked up to the sarcophagus and inspected it, ready to make their move.
The person in charge of the Federation’s Engineering Department glanced at Nasto and gave him a questioning look.
Nasto saw the other party’s questioning gaze and felt a little guilty.
Now that things had come to this, he had to do it!
Nasto pretended to be calm and gave the manager a look that said that everything was under control. Then, he walked toward Professor Pan and the others.
“Wait a minute.”
Professor Pan was about to open the coffin for examination when Nasto stopped him. He frowned and asked, “What else?”
“Are you going to open the coffin?”
Was there a need to ask?
Professor Pan frowned. He didn’t know what Nasto was up to. He felt a little annoyed as he replied, “Yes, is there a problem?”
“It’s best not to. I’m not too sure about your mission, but we can sense that there’s a spatial device inside the sarcophagus. Once the device is triggered, if it causes any fluctuations, the sarcophagus and the corpse may be destroyed.”
Professor Pan was stunned.
A spatial trap.
A large-scale explosion?
What a joke.
He had opened the sarcophagus to check before. When would there be a special explosion that would cause mutation?
Tabio frowned as he listened. The mission lines related to the spawns were still very important to them. If there was a risk, then they really could not open the coffin rashly.
“Professor Pan, is what he said true?”
“Impossible, absolutely impossible.”
Professor Pan only felt that Nasto was finding excuses to buy time. He said with certainty, “I’ve checked the sarcophagus. I’m very sure that this is impossible. I’ve studied the spawns for so many years. I’m very confident about this.”
Seeing Professor Pan’s confidence, Nasto felt a little uneasy.
He hoped Fang Heng was reliable!
Nasto secretly prayed in his heart and took a few steps back. He said, “I’ve already reminded you. If anything happens later, it has nothing to do with us.”
Professor Pan’s heart skipped a beat. He suddenly felt that something was amiss. He immediately said, “Even if there was an accident, we have to analyze it in detail. We have to see if it was caused by your mistake during the transportation process.”
Nasto suppressed his anger as he said, “You… Professor Pan, what do you mean by this?!”
“Enough!” Tabio said, raising his hand to stop the two from arguing. “Professor Pan, if you’re sure it won’t cause any problems, let’s start.”
Professor Pan glared at Nasto and raised his hand to signal his subordinates to open the coffin.
The two players from Michaux Company slowly approached the sarcophagus and tried to erase the spatial traps outside the sarcophagus.
Nasto and the other players looked at the actions of the players from Michaux Company and could not help but reveal a mocking expression.
The level of these two people was a little low.
It was estimated that they had just reached the level of intermediate spatial science.
It took them half an hour to completely erase the spatial traps. Then, they took a few steps back and nodded at Professor Pan.
In the cave, everyone’s attention was focused on the coffin.
“Everyone, I’m going to open the sarcophagus next. I’ll verify it with you on the spot. However, everyone, be careful. Some of the corpses in the coffin have mutated. It might be dangerous.”
Tabio waved his hand.
Two elite Federation players walked forward and stood beside Professor Pan to protect him.
Professor Pan did not realize the impending danger. He reminded everyone in a low voice and slowly approached the sarcophagus until they reached the front of it.
“Ka ka ka…”
The sarcophagus was slowly pushed forward by Professor Pan.
Halfway through, Professor Pan suddenly felt that the sarcophagus in his hand could not be moved, as if it was being suppressed by another tearing force.
Eh?
Professor Pan frowned.
This was strange.
What was going on?
Why was it different from the previous few times?
Why couldn’t it move?
