Chapter 296 - The Locked Crystal Coffin

"Forget it."

Fang Heng shrugged and put the researcher's notebook back into his backpack.

"It seems that this is a research laboratory for crystallized forms, but this thing doesn't seem to have anything to do with zombies?"

Mo Jiawei agreed, "Yes, and there doesn't seem to be any strange mutated zombies here."

While speaking, Mo Jiawei suddenly made a discovery.

"Fang Heng, Lucia, come and take a look at this!"

Fang Heng and Lucia walked over.

Crystal coffin?

In a corner of the laboratory, there were five crystal coffins neatly arranged.

The crystal coffins were covered with dust.

Fang Heng tried to wipe off the dust on the coffin lid.

"What is this?"

There were more than ten white worms inside the coffin.

They looked like the larvae of some creature, about the length of a finger.

They lay quietly inside the coffin as if they had been dead for a long time.

"Eh? Look, it's moving!"

Under the watchful eyes of Fang Heng and the others, the worms slowly woke up.

At the same time, they slowly moved toward Fang Heng.

Fang Heng subconsciously dodged backwards.

Lucia and Mo Jiawei both turned back to look at Fang Heng curiously.

"Fang Heng, what is on your body that attracts them?"

Fang Heng thought for a moment and immediately thought of the blue crystal ore and crystallized form recorded in the notebook just now.

"Let me try."

Fang Heng took out a blue crystal raw ore from his backpack and placed it on the white glass cover of the coffin.

"Chi Chi Chi!"

As soon as the ore was placed on the lid, the worms immediately had a bigger reaction.

They frantically swarmed towards the blue crystal raw ore that Fang Heng placed on the lid, trying to break free from the crystal coffin's restraints.

Fang Heng was even more confused.

"They are crystallized forms?"

"Let me take a look."

Mo Jiawei felt that it was time to prove his worth.

He covered his left eye with his hand and looked at the young worms in the coffin.

Rows of information appeared on his retina.

"Crystallized body, currently at larva stage."

"Special mutated creature (Tier 0 mutated body, can evolve)"

"Unknown creature, a living creature with a DNA structure similar to the primogenitor virus."

"Living creatures can evolve by devouring the blue crystal raw ore and other blue crystal ore products."

"After entering the growth stage, they can devour all lifeforms to absorb nutrients for self-evolution."

"In theory, crystallized forms have unlimited possibilities of evolution."

"Unknown creature. Player needs to increase his level and obtain more information."

Mo Jiawei put down the palm covering his left eye, his expression somewhat incredulous.

What a joke!

His talent skill was S-level!

In the past, he could easily obtain all kinds of data and information even for a Tier 5 creature.

But now, he had a pitiful amount of information about crystallized forms.

"That's all?"

"Yes, that's all."

Fang Heng stroked his chin and sized up the worm in the coffin.

This worm didn't look very strong no matter how he looked at it.

It could evolve infinitely?

Could it be that Night Owl's target this time was this thing?

"Fang Heng, why don't we bring it back? Qiu Yaokang should be able to analyze something, right?"

As Mo Jiawei spoke, he tried to knock on the coffin lid.

The lid was very hard, making a 'bang bang bang' sound.

"It's quite strong."

"Hum..."

This knock seemed to have triggered some mechanism, and the entire coffin suddenly lit up, emitting blue light.

Mo Jiawei hurriedly raised his hands, indicating that he had nothing to do with it.

A line of small words appeared on the coffin's surface.

[Hint: Please enter the password.]

Fang Heng took a look and explained, "It's an electronic lock. The shaking caused the automatic trigger."

Mo Jiawei heaved a sigh of relief. "I told you, it has nothing to do with me."

"Let's look at the other few coffins."

The five coffins were arranged side by side, separated by three to four meters

Fang Heng walked forward again and checked the remaining four crystal coffins.

Three of them were intact, and the inside was also filled with white worms.

Only the last crystal coffin was damaged and the outer layer of the glass crystal lid was broken.

"Eh? The worms inside were taken away?" Mo Jiawei felt strange and looked at Fang Heng. "Is there someone who came here faster than us?"

"It doesn't look like it."

Lucia squatted down and examined the broken lid.

"Fang Heng, judging from the cracks, the lid seems to have been broken from the inside."

Mo Jiawei was shocked.

"What the hell? The worm broke the lid and escaped from the inside?"

Fang Heng also felt confused and confused.

The worm in its infancy didn't have any attack power, so theoretically, it couldn't break the lid.

"Whatever, I'm already here. Take the entire coffin back to the shelter. I'll let Qiu Yaokang analyze it then."

As he spoke, Fang Heng casually walked to the side of the crystal coffin that was still intact. He reached out and touched the bottom of the coffin, trying to lift the entire coffin.

"Huh?"

Fang Heng was surprised.

Only then did he realize that the entire bottom of the coffin was embedded in the bottom.

"Beep Beep Beep..."

A faint alarm sounded from the coffin.

[Hint: Please enter the password. Forced movement, destruction and power customization will cause the self-destruct program to activate.]

[Hint: This item is a special item. It cannot be stored in a backpack.]

Password? There's a self-destruct program?

Fang Heng frowned and silently withdrew his hand.

The dead crystallized form most likely had no research value.

Mo Jiawei glanced at the other side of the laboratory that was sealed off by the Meteorite Company and asked, "Fang Heng, do you think Night Owl's people have a password?"

"They..."

Fang Heng nodded and said, "That makes sense. I'll go and ask."

He turned on the survival radio and sent an urgent message to Deng Xin.

Fang Heng: "How's your situation now?" How long do you need to excavate before reaching the central laboratory?"

Deng Xin: "We're still excavating round-the-clock. If everything goes smoothly, we'll be able to excavate it by tomorrow afternoon. In addition, I received news from Liu Keyi that the Federation has encountered some trouble.".

Fang Heng: "There's no need to pay attention to the Federation for the time being. Have you heard Liu Keyi talk about crystallized forms, coffins or passwords?"

Deng Xin: "I think so. She must have some special password. I haven't heard anything else. She's very vigilant and she doesn't seem to be worried that the Federation will find out about this operation."

Fang Heng looked at Deng Xin's response and turned off the survival radio.

"There's still nearly a day left..."

Fang Heng muttered to himself. He looked down at the coffin under his feet and suddenly had a good idea.

Almost in the blink of an eye, he had another bad idea.

If he succeeded, he could probably trick the coffin back.

"Fang Heng, what do we say?"

"It's okay. Let's go back and clean up the ores outside. Don't let the Federation and Night Owl's people find out. I'll leave this place to you for now. I have to go back and bring some people to help."

Fang Heng turned to look at Lucia. "Lucia, the situation has changed. I'll go back to the shelter with you."

Lucia said happily, "Good!"
