Chapter 435: The Laboratory Exploded

December 3rd.

A little past two in the morning.

Lin Feng, Zhao Xiaoyang, and Liu Erwa arrived in Erdos and checked into a hotel.

In the room, the three chatted for a while and were about to rest when Lin Feng's phone rang.

It was Duan Fei calling.

"What, the Laboratory was blown up!"

When Duan Fei finished speaking, Lin Feng wore a look of surprise.

Besides surprise, there was also delight.

A few hours earlier Liu Erwa had said she wanted to blow up that Laboratory, and unexpectedly it actually got blown up.

Could it be that after Liu Erwa fell into a trap, her mouth was blessed?

Duan Fei gave a brief account of the situation over there.

He first briefly recounted the love story of Cai Hao and Hei Mei Baoshi.

Next came what had just happened.

At that time, Cai Hao avenged his father-in-law Abuzala by killing the culprit, who was also a chief named Yalaxixi.

Yalaxixi's subordinates, refusing to quit, rushed into the area where the Laboratory building stood to avenge Yalaxixi, numbering in the hundreds.

Cai Hao, with Baoshi, and over a thousand tribe members fought back while fleeing.

Then Abuzala's army rushed back from the border.

It also seemed to be a few hundred people.

The battle lasted more than two hours.

The area of the Laboratory building fell into complete chaos.

Because they feared that this tribal war would cause the Laboratory's viruses and such to leak out.

The Laboratory's director ordered the self-destruction protocol to be activated.

Then he left by helicopter with a group of people and the data files.

"Brother Feng, Professor Sun is dead."

Finally, Duan Fei said in a deep voice.

Professor Sun is Qi Yao's teacher, Sun Rong.

Lin Feng's heart tightened, "What happened!?!".

Duan Fei said, "There was internal strife among the people in the Laboratory... By the way, Professor Sun gave me a USB drive and asked me to pass it to a student with the surname Qi."

"Got it."

Lin Feng said calmly.

Duan Fei asked again, "Brother Feng, what should we do now? It's a mess here and probably won't calm down soon. The people here are far too barbaric, they don't speak any reason!"

Lin Feng thought for a moment and instructed, "Tell Cai Hao I'm ready to invest dollars to support... his wife Baoshi becoming the Arutu Tribe chief."

Duan Fei frowned, "The Arutu Tribe's territory spans only a few dozen li, smaller than a county back home, and has no minerals. No need to waste money on that, right?"

Lin Feng laughed, "You fool! That land still has a tribe of gems, a wealth that can't be measured in money.

Think about a place tens of kilometers wide—you could build an airport, skyscrapers, even establish a Guo Jia!"

With money, you can buy weapons, annex surrounding tribes, and the territory will keep expanding..."

After Lin Feng finished, Duan Fei finally understood and exclaimed, "Brother Feng, I get it! I'll go tell Cai Hao right away."

"Brother, what's going on?"

Seeing Lin Feng's solemn expression after the call, Zhao Xiaoyang asked curiously.

Lin Feng said calmly, "The Laboratory is gone, so you, Sister Yao, don't need to go there..."

Lin Feng felt it was a pity about Professor Sun's death.

After all, she was also a talent.

Many of Guo Jia's scientists built the Laboratory there precisely to evade some Guo Ji Treaty.

Behind Sun Rong, Guo Jia might have been secretly supporting.

But such matters can't be displayed openly.

From the fact that the Laboratory's director destroyed it as soon as he sensed something was wrong, the research there must have been extremely important.

Fortunately, Professor Sun obtained the crucial data.

Moreover, Cai Hao didn't tell anyone about this.

When the USB drive ends up in Yao Yao's hands, let's see what she does!

If we want to continue the research, Lin Feng will support it.

If we don't do research, living an ordinary life like now is fine too.

"The mouse caused trouble again!"

Liu Erwa wore a look of iron that hadn't become steel.

Lin Feng laughed, "Cai Hao did well this time! With the operation successful, we can secure a huge territory over in Feizhou."

Liu Erwa said, "That place is terribly poor; with money we could smash out a Guo Jia, right?"

As soon as the words left her mouth, Zhao Xiaoyang slapped her and said, "What the hell do you know! Even if we have money, we're still outsiders. If we want to stir things up there, we need to find an agent, understand?"

December 3rd, 9:30 a. m.

Lin Feng and Qi Yao walked out of the airport together.

Behind them, Zhao Xiaoyang carried a very large, heavy metal crate.

Liu Erwa held two boxes in her hands.

After putting the box on the car, Lin Feng started the car.

Qi Yao just sat in the passenger seat.

Lin Feng didn't start the car right away, but said to Qi Yao, "Yaoyao, I have something to tell you; for you, it might be bad news."

"Huh?"

Qi Yao frowned slightly.

Lin Feng said lightly, "Over at the Laboratory, two tribes fought yesterday…… Your teacher Sun Rong died."

Qi Yao was stunned.

Lin Feng actually felt nothing about Sun Rong's death.

But Qi Yao was different.

Professor Sun was her mentor in college.

If it weren't for Professor Sun, Qi Yao wouldn't have studied forensic medicine.

If she hadn't studied forensic medicine, she wouldn't have been transferred to Yanjing, and then she wouldn't have met Lin Feng.

That's Qi Yao's logic.

Although she felt sad, Qi Yao quickly composed herself and softly said, "I'm fine!"..

Lin Feng also said, "A set of experimental data ended up in my hands; it was grabbed by Professor Sun at a critical moment. I'll give it to you later; you decide what to do with it!"

Qi Yao nodded.

It was past three in the afternoon.

Inside the tent.

Zhao Xiaoyang and Liu Erwa pried open the cave entrance.

Looking at the pitch-black underground cavern, Lin Feng said to Qi Yao, "When the thunder struck, I heard there was space below, so I dug here for over a month.

But after going down, it felt somewhat eerie……

Qi Yao said lightly, "There are no ghosts in this world."

"Mm-hmm! Yes!" Lin Feng nodded in agreement.

Next, Lin Feng and Qi Yao went down into the cave together via a rope.

Of course, both were fully armed, covered head to toe.

Then, the three large boxes were lowered down by Zhao Xiaoyang and Liu Erwa using ropes.

Qi Yao opened the three boxes and took out various laboratory instruments.

No electricity……

Duan Fei and Liu Erwa also lowered down a small gasoline generator.

After powering the instruments, Qi Yao checked the surrounding environment.

Then she took off the oxygen mask.

The cave wasn't stuffy; it only had a faint moldy smell.

Lin Feng also took off his oxygen mask.

Looking at Qi Yao's beautiful face, he felt especially at ease.

There was no strange wind.

Nor was there a gloomy feeling.

"Is your neck cold?"

Lin Feng asked Qi Yao.

Qi Yao shook her head.

Lin Feng said, "Last night, Liu Erwa was wearing the same clothes as me; logically, he shouldn't have felt a cold draft……"

He described the situation at that time.

Qi Yao said lightly, "That's psychological."

"But when going up, the sturdy rope suddenly snapped."

"Maybe it's just a coincidence!"
