Patroclus parted the crowd and said, "Please step aside."
Patroclus placed his hand on the wall, and a few moments later, the Celestial Deva Spear appeared in his hand, and he fired a shot at the wall.
GN Force slowly hit the wall, followed by another shot.
The gravity inside the room had increased to more than twenty times, and Wang Tong couldn't move at all. He had to focus all his energy on defending himself, and even breathing became difficult.
Wang Tong had no choice but to activate his Tactics of the Blade, but the gravity was getting stronger and stronger, and he felt like his internal organs were about to explode.
The protection of his GN Force was no longer enough to defend him from the gravity.
Wang Tong's Primordial Spirit finally moved when the pressure had reached a point where he could no longer breathe. A faint light enveloped Wang Tong and connected with the whole room. His Primordial Spirit continued to resist the heavy gravity, but Wang Tong's body was still under great pressure. All Wang Tong could do now was to hold on.
He had to hold on, even if it was just one more minute.
Outside the room, Patroclus' Celestial Deva Spear had turned into a dazzling silver ray.
Boom!
A huge hole was blasted open on the outer wall of the Gravity Chamber, followed by a violent explosion. Fortunately, the crowd had been evacuated, and the fire brigade had put out the fire. Meanwhile, Patroclus was already inside the Gravity Chamber.
Wang Tong was rescued, but the incident had caught the attention of the entire Battleship, and a special team had been formed to investigate the incident. Obviously, this was not a simple malfunction, and it was a blatant provocation to have such a thing happen on Noah's Ark.
Bolten had seen the entire process, but he wasn't too worried. His arrangements weren't flawed, but they weren't as thorough. Originally, he could only raise the gravity and seal the area for ten minutes, but the entire process took more than half an hour. Furthermore, there were some things that he couldn't have done, and he couldn't have done them. Doing those things would be equivalent to telling others that it wasn't an accident. Bolten wasn't that stupid, but who could have done it?
It seemed like Wang Tong had a lot of enemies, but it was a coincidence that Wang Tong had the same idea as himself.
However, he had to reevaluate Wang Tong's strength after this incident. It was strange that Wang Tong was still alive. Unless he was an Martial God, he would definitely be killed under such circumstances. However, Wang Tong was still alive.
Damn Patroclus, he was the one who always poked his nose into other people's business. Wang Tong's death was actually a good thing for him. The Ivantians were really stupid.
Wang Tong spent his weekend in the hospital again.
Ma Xiaoru and Zhou Sisi were standing next to Wang Tong when he opened his eyes. Wang Tong smiled when he saw their teary eyes and said, "Don't worry. I told you, I am a lucky man."
"You're still joking at a time like this? Do you know how dangerous it was this time? If Patroclus hadn't broken through the gravity chamber, you would've …" Xiaoru's eyes reddened again.
"I'll tell the others about this." Sisi rubbed her eyes and ran out.
On this day, there was a big investigation on Noah's Ark. The police were everywhere. It was such an obvious and stupid plot. How could they not give an explanation?
The Templar's disciples wouldn't let this matter rest. If they didn't give a proper explanation, it would definitely cause a mess. Kaost didn't expect such a thing to happen when everything was going smoothly and they were all well-behaved.
It was extremely easy to investigate. Some places were too obvious, and it was obviously done by someone. However, there were indeed many people on Noah's Ark, but who did it?
Koster was having a headache. According to the traces left behind by the investigation, Patroclus's hair was found in the sealed passageway, and his fingerprints were also found in some places.
This was a difficult problem to solve.
After all, the evidence was not enough to prove that Patroclus was the culprit. Plus, Patroclus was the one who broke through the gravity chamber, and he was the only one on the battleship who could do that.
But even if he wasn't the culprit, he still found the traces.
Regardless, it was a difficult problem to solve.
Patroclus had his reasons. He was not happy about losing to Wang Tong, and it was possible that he would seek revenge. As long as Wang Tong was dead, he would still be the most powerful man in the world, and no one would suspect him. However, he didn't expect Wang Tong to survive.
This was just a guess, but it was also possible that they had deliberately framed Patroclus to reap the benefits. For example, Li Shiming. It was said that before the incident, Li Shiming had just left. If he had been a moment later, he would have been locked up in the prison.
The struggle between the aristocratic families had always been unscrupulous, and it had never stopped in the past hundred years. The reason why Kaost suppressed their arrogance at the beginning was also to make these audacious fellows restrain themselves. But now it seemed that it was useless.
The other party was smart, and it was obvious that he couldn't investigate this matter anymore. Coster had to suppress it.
Samantha was furious when she received the news. She rushed to Coster's office.
"Captain, if this is the result, we can't accept it!"
"Hehe, Samantha, have a seat." Coster was still smiling.
"Captain, everything shows that this was premeditated. You can't just say that it was an accident!" Samantha said coldly. She didn't want to go overboard because of Coster's authority as a captain. However, if she didn't do something about it this time, there would be a next time.
"Hehe, have a seat. I know that. But what do you want me to do? Arrest Patroclus? Just based on these suspicions, you can be convicted. What if someone deliberately framed you? "
"But I can't just let it go. As my subordinate and my student, I can't just ignore this." Samantha was still cold. Since she had already said it, she might as well make it clear to Coster that she would protect Wang Tong! "Hehe, Miss Samantha, don't be angry.
I'm deeply sorry that Wang Tong was involved in this. Fortunately, it didn't lead to any irreversible consequences. However, there are some things that we shouldn't push too far. Our mission on Ark One is very important, and if we start to fight, we can't do anything about it. Therefore, the investigation can be carried out in secret, and you will be in charge of it. However, we can only explain to the public that it was an accident. As for Wang Tong, I'll leave it to you as a supplement. However, I have to make one thing clear: he can't join the combat unit! "
Coster said meticulously. He seemed to have made some concessions at the beginning, but the latter part of his sentence seemed to have another meaning.
"Why?"
"Sir, I'm still the captain, and I will carry out the orders. You may leave now!"
The atmosphere suddenly became tense. From this moment on, there had been a rift between the two of them. Politics was a compromise, but because of Wang Tong's incident, a huge rift had appeared at the beginning of the trial.
Samantha left the Captain's Room, and her emotional expression gradually returned to normal. She let out a sigh. She knew that the situation was hopeless, but she pretended to be angry in order to change Wang Tong's situation.
However, it was only half effective. She didn't expect that Coster would still not allow Wang Tong to join the combat unit. Obviously, there was someone else behind the scenes.
It seemed like the problem was Wang Tong's identity. His identity as the successor of the Blade Guild had more disadvantages than advantages!
To be honest, from the perspective of power, Wang Tong's identity as the successor of the Blade Edge would be the icing on the cake if he were to be at his prime. However, right now, he was being hated by many people, especially some powerful forces. No one would be willing to give him a chance to grow.
The support of the Templar would only make things worse. Everyone in power was worried that Wang Tong would use the influence of the Templar to grow into a force that could threaten them.
Although she was the chief of staff, the troops on Noah's Ark only listened to Coster. She was only the chief of staff appointed by the higher-ups, and she didn't have any actual power.
She shouldn't have done it, but she didn't know why she did it when Wang Tong was involved.
Samantha didn't feel remorseful at all. Instead, she let go of the knot in her heart. If she didn't do it, she wouldn't be able to get past herself. Since she had already laid her cards on the table, it was a good opportunity for her to confront Wang Tong. Coster was actually trying to shirk his responsibility by handing the matter to her. Just like he said, no matter who the culprit was, and which family he had offended, he wouldn't be able to survive in the Earth Alliance.
"Wang Tong."
Wang Tong slowly opened his eyes as he heard a crisp voice. It wasn't Ma Xiaoru's voice, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Sister Jin, how come you have time to visit me?"
Zhang Jin put the flowers into a vase and sat down beside Wang Tong. "You are smiling, I think you are doing well."
"Haha, I am an optimistic person, but this time, the doctor told me not to use my GN Force for a month. Don't you think I am in a miserable state?"
Wang Tong said.
"You must have heard a lot about it. I am here to tell you that Papa didn't do it, and I can vouch for him. If you trust me …"
Wang Tong waved his hand and smiled. "Sister Jin, I trust you. I have to thank Patroclus for saving my life."
"Oh, although the investigation showed that it was an accident, I believe you have heard some news." Zhang Jin said. There was no such thing as an impenetrable wall, not to mention that the forces on Noah's Ark were complicated.
There was a lot of evidence pointing to Patroclus.
"Maybe it's a man's instinct. Tell Patroclus that I will buy him a drink if I can get out of bed."
