"What? This tree isn't the source of the radiation, and there's only residual radiation? "
After the samples were brought back to the laboratory, Shen Qingtang very responsibly gave a conclusion.
"Radiation does slightly alter genes, and any creature exposed to radiation for a long period of time can mutate."
"But I'm 100% sure that this tree isn't the source of the radiation, it's just some residual radiation."
Dang Weiguo slammed the table. He could already conclude that the Bi Fang had escaped with the real source of the radiation.
"You've searched for so long and still haven't found it?"
Another group of people replied: "Leader, we can conclude that the Bi Fang isn't in Shennongjia, we've searched everywhere."
"The satellites didn't find any trace of it either, there's no Bi Fang within a 10 km radius of Shennongjia, and the helicopters have been searching high up in the sky, but they didn't find any abnormal flying objects either."
Dang Weiguo's expression was solemn, and he said with certainty: "At the time, it must have been near us, all of us heard the Bi Fang's message …"
At this time, Xiao Dan walked in covered in blood and said: "Shennongjia is solved, right?"
"According to the investigation team, there's no longer any radiation that can mutate animals there."
Dang Weiguo glared at him, and spoke to him for the first time: "The most important problem hasn't been solved yet!"
"We still haven't found the real source of the radiation, and even a dangerous mutated beast like the Bi Fang has escaped."
"No matter which one it is, it's an extremely important anomaly, but now that we've failed to contain it, what's the point of solving the Shennongjia problem?"
Xiao Dan scratched his head and smiled: "Our mission is to solve Shennongjia …"
"Alright, alright … it's easy to contain the Bi Fang … can't we just ask the director to use that 'microwave oven'?"
Dang Weiguo and the others were stunned, and actually considered Xiao Dan's suggestion.
Shen Qingtang said: "It's indeed feasible, we've seen the Bi Fang before, and we can fully replicate its appearance and create a model. But … that 'microwave oven' has never left anyone alive! "
Dang Weiguo said: "We don't need anyone alive! As long as Bi Fang is dead, with our manpower, we will be able to find it sooner or later! "
"But … I still have to ask the director about this. Only he has the right to use that thing."
Dang Weiguo took out a phone and made a call.
Then, he said happily, "The director agreed! Professor Shen, send the Bi Fang model data back immediately … "
"Okay!" Shen Qingtang quickly organized the data about Bi Fang's body and created a 3D model.
The data didn't need to be accurate, and it didn't even need a 1: 1 ratio to create a model. It just needed to show the target's appearance.
Far away in the Changbai Mountains, there was a huge secret base deep in the mountains. This was the destination of the data transmission.
According to the data, the people in the base quickly created a model. It was a realistic Bi Fang, exactly the same as the one that Lan Mu had transformed into.
The model was delivered to someone, and that person took the elevator down to the depths of the mountain alone.
There were several secret rooms here. He walked to one of the secret rooms numbered [23].
Holding the model, he opened the door of the secret room and walked in. It was a small room about ten square meters, and there was only a microwave oven.
It was a very simple design, and there was even a factory number on it, indicating that it was a product from a company in 2003.
The microwave oven's wires were coiled on the ground, and there were no ports around it.
The person walked over directly, opened the microwave oven, and placed the model inside.
He turned the switch, and the microwave oven lit up. It actually started running, but it wasn't plugged in!
After waiting for five minutes, he heard a ding. The person hurriedly opened the microwave oven, and saw that the model inside was intact.
"Eh? How could this be … "
He baked it in the microwave for another five minutes, and when he opened it, it was still intact.
The person shook his head, took the model away, closed the door of the secret room, and left.
"Dang Weiguo … are you sure the data you provided is correct?"
"Yes, it's like this … Director, what's wrong?"
"The model is intact …"
Dang Weiguo was surprised: "Director, isn't the target too far away?"
The director replied: "Any creature that fits the model's appearance, even if it hides in space, won't be able to escape the microwave oven's lock, and will eventually be melted. We once placed [No. 11] in the South Pole as an experiment, and without exception, [No. 11], which couldn't even be killed by a laser beam, melted within three minutes … "
"There are only two possibilities for the model to be intact. Unless the target is already dead … or doesn't even exist in this world! "
After saying so, the director hung up.
Dang Weiguo was left muttering: "How could this be?"
"When did Bi Fang die? Where's the body? "
He couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he thought about it. He saw and experienced Bi Fang with his own eyes. So the only explanation left was that Bi Fang was already dead.
"How inexplicable, could it have just evaporated into thin air?"
…
"Achoo!"
Lan Mu had no idea that someone was using an anomaly to kill him in the distant Changbai Mountains, he didn't even feel anything.
He had already turned back into a human, sitting in the front passenger seat while Bai Ze drove him to the Blue and White Society's first-generation base.
It was a small inland city in the Gan Province, where there were only a few local powerhouses. The Blue and White Society had developed quite well there, and was currently in the early stages of economic accumulation.
Bai Ze said: "Master, the organization has been developing quite well recently, do you want to give us some pointers …"
"Give my ass! It's not up to me to blindly give orders … right, I have something to ask you "
Lan Mu asked: "You've been with CANC for so many years, how many anomalies do you know? The kind that knows the location of their containment "
Bai Ze immediately replied: "Six! Including Zhang Yang and Shennongjia, that makes four. What? Master, are you trying to cause trouble for CANC? "
Lan Mu shrugged: "There's something I have to fight for, that's all …"
"Among the four anomalies you know, are there any that can modify or mutate living creatures?"
Bai Ze chuckled: "You mean something like Shennongjia? Among the six that I know, Shennongjia is the anomaly with the most mysterious creatures "
"Anything else?"
"There's one more, it's an unmarked island in the Pacific Ocean, about 1000 nautical miles south of Midway Island. It's an anomaly that has been contained by CANC for a very long time, completely isolated from the rest of the world. I don't know the specifics, but I've heard people speculate that there are a lot of prehistoric creatures there, because that island is called the Lost Island, containment number Ω-090 "
"The island is surrounded by three layers of walls, at the same time, the island is divided into three danger zones. The most dangerous zone is the lake at the center, followed by the middle zone and the outer zone near the sea. In the coastal zone, CANC has built many bases and laboratories, at least two special task forces are sent to patrol the area every year, and there are three permanent corps stationed there at all times "
"That island has been studied for many years, I don't know what they've found out …"
Lan Mu narrowed his eyes and confirmed one thing.
"Will that island repeatedly spawn abnormal creatures?"
"Probably? Otherwise, CANC wouldn't be stationed there for so long … "
Bai Ze awkwardly said: "I really don't have the authority to know that much, that island is isolated from the rest of the world and is highly classified by CANC, even the governments of small countries don't know of its existence"
Lan Mu nodded and muttered: "Is that so … Then I'll have to go there myself to find out"
Bai Ze frowned and said: "Master, I really don't recommend you go …"
"First of all, that place is very dangerous, not only is CANC's garrison powerful, but the creatures on that island are also very dangerous. Although master is invincible, there's no need to go against them so quickly! "
"Not to mention, it's an entire island! That's an anomaly zone, not some small anomaly. Even CANC can only seal that place off, not to mention that we can't take it away, even if we could, we wouldn't need it! It's really not worth taking such a big risk! "
After hearing Bai Ze's words, Lan Mu just smiled.
"Don't worry, I'm just going to take a look, if it's not what I'm looking for, I'll just run back."
"I have to go to that place!"
