Ten years after the failed awakening, I became a god

Chapter 121

No matter what happened before, Lan Yin wanted to go and watch the fun, but this was Federation territory after all, and she felt that what happened was not a small matter, so Lan Yin could only use the old routine to use the space spirit to send the flowing light beads to the innermost laboratory to watch on her behalf.

She slipped into the nearest bathroom.

At the entrance of Laboratory No. 1.

Wu Jie led the group to the entrance of Laboratory No. 1, but was unable to enter due to the access control. He rang the video doorbell and shouted, "Professor Shi, I'm Wu Jie from the investigation team. I've been ordered to retrieve the crystal."

Professor Shi's serious face was heard through the doorbell. Her voice came from the video doorbell: "There's a problem with the crystal. Please report it. This crystal cannot be given out at the moment. Ask them to wait a few more days."

Wu Jie refused to leave as instructed. "Professor Shi, that's really not nice of you. You were the one who sent the message saying the crystal had been tested. After receiving the message, they immediately sent me to retrieve it. I accepted the assignment and rushed here as fast as I could. And then when I got to the lab, you told me there was a problem with the crystal."

It doesn't matter if you play tricks on me, but the higher-ups aren't so easily fooled. You have to let me into the lab to see the crystal's specific condition, otherwise if they ask me what's wrong with the crystal, I won't know anything."

The professor's expression froze as he looked at the video doorbell. "I'll submit a detailed report on the cause of the accident. I won't let you take responsibility for it. Just go back and report."

Wu Jie wasn't convinced. "Professor Shi, you sound so easy. You don't know how hard it is for us men down there. So, let me in first to check out the crystal. I'll take a picture and send it over. Then you can write a detailed report and submit it. That way, they won't think I tampered with the crystal during this downtime."

Professor Shi's expression was somewhat grim, and he didn't say whether he agreed or refused.

At this time, the man in the white coat behind Professor Shi came up again and whispered something in Professor Shi's ear. Professor Shi's expression relaxed and he said, "Open the door."

The heavy steel door separating the two sides finally opened, and the interior of Laboratory No. 1 appeared in the eyes of Wu Jie and his group.

It also appeared in Lan Yin's eyes.

The structure inside Laboratory No. 1 is similar to that of Laboratory No. 2. The middle is filled with various test tubes for research, and there are many small doors closed at the back of the laboratory.

After Wu Jie and his group entered, they saw Professor Shi standing at the door, with the man in the white coat standing beside her. The other researchers in the lab were staring intently at the test tubes in front of them, seemingly oblivious to the large group of Wu Jie and his group.

Quite interesting.

Wu Jie didn't show it on his face. After all, this was his first time inside the research institute, and this was a new laboratory that was said to be able to be rebuilt within a day.

I don't know how much manpower and material resources have been spent, but the order has been given by the higher-ups that we must spare no expense for this laboratory.

Now he can also go in and see what secrets are hidden in this laboratory.

Wu Jie greeted Professor Shi respectfully, "Thank you for your help, Professor Shi."

Professor Shi snorted coldly and turned away.

The man in the white coat next to her said without a smile, "Thank you all for coming all this way. I'm sorry to have wasted your trip. Professor Shi isn't usually like this. It's just that there happened to be a problem with the crystal today, so Professor Shi is in a bad mood. Please bear with me."

Wu Jie also laughed: "We are also doing our duty. I hope Professor Shi will forgive us."

The man in the white coat gestured with his hand, "The lab is quite small. Team Leader Wu, you can come in alone. Otherwise, it will be messy and difficult for us to handle if too many people come in."

Wu Jie winked at the deputy team leader next to him, signaling him to lead his men out of the laboratory.

The crowd retreated back to the door in a mighty procession.

The man in the white coat then smiled and made a gesture to invite Wu Jie in, saying, "Team Leader Wu, please come in."

Wu followed the man in the white coat into one of the small rooms at the back. Lan Yin also controlled his spirit body and sent the flowing light bead into the small room in the same way.

The situation inside the small room could be heard clearly.

The room was very small, with a pillar in the middle. On top of the pillar was a transparent square glass cover containing a grayish-white stone.

Wu Jie was startled: "Crystal..."

Lan Yin was also shocked. Is this a crystal?

It was the first time she had seen a crystal that looked so much like a stone. Of course, the ones they had used to deceive people before didn't count.

Like the two crystals she now possesses, one time crystal is red and the other spirit crystal is blue, their surfaces emit a glittering light.

This is the characteristic of crystal stone, and it is also the origin of its name, because crystal stone looks like various crystals and is very dazzling.

But the crystal in front of him was gray and looked like an ordinary stone.

This is the crystal stone that the higher-ups specifically requested. Why are they so shivering?

Professor Shi interrupted Wu Jie impatiently, not letting him ask the following question: "Didn't you say you wanted to take pictures? The crystal is right here, go ahead. As for the rest, it's none of your business."

Wu Jie didn't know what to say, but the current situation did need to be reported. Anyway, the order from above was just for him to come and get the crystal. Now there was already a problem with the crystal in the research institute. He just needed to report what he saw to the research institute, and what happened in the end would have nothing to do with him.

People who have no power should avoid talking too much.

He has always done this, which is why he has survived until now.

Now that there was clearly something wrong with the crystal, all he had to do was report the matter. As for who would be sent by the higher-ups to take charge or investigate the matter, it had nothing to do with her.

Wu Jie figured it out and quickly took high-definition photos of the crystal stone in the glass cover from various angles. He then raised his smart bracelet to record a video to prove that the professor and the people from the research institute were present when he took the photos.

Of course, he naturally ignored Professor Shi's ugly expression.

After quickly completing all of this, Wu Jie nodded to Professor Shi and the man. "Excuse me, Professor Shi. I'll be back to report now. I hope you'll also submit a written report on what happened to the crystal as soon as possible. After all, I can't hold on for much longer."

Professor Shi snorted coldly: "You've already filmed this much, do you still need to hold on? I told you not to worry about the crystal matter, I have my own arrangements."

Wu Jie nodded repeatedly. "Okay, okay. Professor, please be busy now. I'll be back to report."

Oh my God, who wants to take care of these trivial matters? His hair has turned white from worrying about these trivial matters every day. He would not come unless there was an order from above to do so.

He said it as if it was a great thing, but he didn't even drink a sip of the water.

What a sin.

Wu Jie left the small laboratory at lightning speed and his figure soon disappeared from the research institute.

If Lan Yin had not discovered that Wu Jie's spirit was an auxiliary spirit, she would have thought that the big brother with white hair had awakened the Speedster.

In the laboratory.

Looking at Wu Jie's departing figure, the man in the white coat tactfully closed the small door.

At this time, Professor Shi's tears clearly flowed from her eyes, and she choked up and said.

"Why is Mo'er so impatient? I prepared the best time crystal for him. There's only one in the world. What good would it do if he absorbed this face-changing crystal?"

The man in the white coat hugged Professor Shi distressedly and said, "The child has grown up and has his own ideas. Besides, what happened a few days ago, young people are shy. This matter can't be entirely blamed on Mo'er."

Professor Shi shook his head repeatedly, "You don't understand. Because of the unique structure of the human body, I've studied it all my life, and I can only find a way to allow a person's spirit body to have a maximum of two spirits. Any more and the human body wouldn't be able to withstand it."

The other child in the Shi family was my experimental subject in the early years, and the symbiotic beings I gave him were all spiritual spirits.

As my child, how could Moer choose an ordinary spirit with a changed face?"

The man in the white coat sighed. "It's fate. The crystal has been absorbed. It's too late to say anything now. We can only find a way to pair him with a 'symbiote' with a powerful spirit to minimize the losses."

Professor Shi emerged from the man's embrace and wiped away her tears. "You're right. This child hasn't been raised by me since childhood, so it's inevitable that he's a bit rebellious. I'm sorry I wronged you."

The man shook his head. "It doesn't matter to me. The most important thing right now is to find a 'symbiote' for Mo'er."

Professor Shi narrowed his eyes slightly and thought, "A 'symbiont' is more useful when you know them well. Unfortunately, the institute has been facing difficulties recently, and research has suffered heavy losses. I no longer have any suitable candidates for 'symbionts'."

The man thought for a moment. "What do you think of Xin Sheng? Their spirits share the same origin, so if they were used as a symbiotic being, there would be absolutely no rejection. The only pity is that their spirits would overlap, wasting a space for one spirit."

Professor Shi didn't lower his eyes: "Her? No way."

The man in the white coat was somewhat surprised by the professor's straightforward refusal and asked, "Why?"

Professor Shi raised his eyes. "Because my son's spirit must be unique, even a symbiotic one cannot exist. From today on, there will be no Xin Sheng in this world."

The man in the white coat widened his eyes slightly: "You mean..."
