Chapter 2154 Guarding Oneself While Stealing


    "I''ll say it again. There''s not much time left. Think about it carefully."


    As they spoke, scattered spatial crystals condensed around Ji Haiting and the guards.


    "Whoosh!"


    In a sh, Ji Haiting and the others disappeared through spatial transmission.


    Fang Heng looked behind the metal door, then turned to look at the researcher, Eidrd, who was hiding in the corner of the stairs with his ears covered.


    Eidrd felt bitter.


    What the hell!


    What did he just witness?


    Thepany''s director and Fang Heng were chatting amicably, while he was ying the role of the traitor?


    Heaven!


    He was doomed!


    Eidrd saw Fang Heng''s gaze and shook his head in fear, "What? What was that? What did you all say just now? I''m deaf. I didn''t hear anything. I don''t know anything!"


    "Stop talking nonsense. Get up and lead the way."


    Eidrd saw Fang Heng''s expression turn cold and immediately felt a chill run down his spine and straight to his head. He quickly got up from the ground and led him into the open passage ahead.


    Soon, Eidrd brought Fang Heng to the secret Research Laboratory No. 3.


    In theboratory, two stones were ced behind ss walls on tworge consoles, almost like exhibits.


    Therge instrument was still running automatically, analyzing the data of the Niam alloy.


    Fang Heng stepped forward and observed through the ss wall.


    The alloy stone was not aplete piece. It had been cut into small pieces the size of a fist and ced on two consoles.


    Fang Heng pressed his hand on the ss wall and pushed it gently.


    "Bang!!!" n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om


    The ss wall shattered.


    Fang Heng continued to walk to the side of the experimental table and reached out to touch the stone.


    A game notification appeared.


    [Hint: The yer has obtained item-Niam alloy]


    [Hint: The yer does not possess the relevant skill and cannot analyze this metal alloy. To analyze this item, you need to be at least Level 550 in the research room.]


    Swoosh.


    The metal stone disappeared into his backpack.


    [Hint: The yer has obtained the Niam alloy*2.]


    [Hint: Hand this item over to the tree spirits to obtain the tree spirits'' favorability, arge number of camp contribution points, and tree spirits'' contribution points (It is rmended to choose this mission line to greatly reduce the difficulty of the mission and increase the efficiency of the missionpletion).]


    "Done!"


    He had to get his hands on the Niam alloy before the tree spirits!


    As for what happened next...


    Fang Heng narrowed his eyes and looked at the game notification that shed past him. He lowered his head and thought for a few seconds.


    At the moment, the tree spirits were still fighting against the OmniTech Company and the Federation in the research institute.


    The tree spirits didn''t know that he had sneaked into the research institute and obtained the Niam alloy.


    However, they would naturally notice the abnormality when they arrived.


    So...


    Fang Heng couldn''t help but look at Eidrd behind him.


    "Hey, Eidrd."


    Eidrd''s body tensed up.


    "Are these the only two pieces of Niam alloy?"


    "Yes, I heard from my colleagues that the Niam alloy is very rare. Don''t look down on these two small pieces of wreckage. Thepany actually spent a lot of effort to get them from the spawns."


    Fang Heng curled his lips and asked casually, "What is Ouroboros?"


    Eidrd was stunned. He did not expect Fang Heng to suddenly ask apletely unrted question. He took a moment to react before answering, "I''m not sure. I''ve only read some information. It''s said that it''s an unconfirmed special race."


    Fang Heng muttered to himself, "Race... What''s the specifics?"


    "This race is born with a natural disaster attribute. ording to the spawns, the appearance of Ouroboros represents the arrival of a natural disaster. After the appearance of Ouroboros, 99% of the species in the world will be destroyed because of them. After that, the Ouroboros race will disappear, and all the souls in the world will be revived. ording to legends, Ouroboros is a snake that goes around in a cycle, symbolizing the reincarnation of the world."


    Fang Heng rubbed his chin and frowned.


    That was strange.


    Ouroboros represented an unknown race?


    Then how did it get in touch with him?


    "Where can I find detailed information about Ouroboros? Is there any in the research institute?"


    "The relevant data is ssified as A-level confidential. Normally, it could be essed, but during the recent attack on the research institute, all data was automatically erased. You won''t find it here."


    Eidrd shrunk his neck as he spoke, "If you need it, you can try your luck at the ck market. Although there''s very little information about Ouroboros, it''s not considered a top secret."


    "Alright, onest thing. After you''re done, help me find a ce to hide. I don''t need to teach you what to say or not to say."


    "What is it?"


    "Wait, disguise this ce. Remember..."


    Fang Heng whispered something into Eidrd''s ear.


    "Ah, you..."


    Eidrd looked at Fang Heng suspiciously.


    He had already taken the Niam alloy, so why would he need to disguise himself? Did he really think that OmniTech Company was stupid?


    "Hurry up and go!"


    Hearing this, Eidrd felt a chill run down his spine and quickly ran away.


    Fang Heng looked in the direction that Eidrd ran off in and closed his eyes on the spot. He sensed the Lickers and worms inside the research institute.


    When he opened his eyes again, Fang Heng immediately made a judgment.


    Leave first!


    ...


    Once again, Fang Heng left the research institute through the secondary space projection.


    Outside the research institute, the Lickers were still dealing with the Federation''srge war machines that would asionally arrive at the battlefield through spatial transmission.


    Arge number of Lickers continued to pounce on the war machines, using their bodies to withstand the bombardment of the beam weapons and forcefully scratch the war machines to cause damage.


    Fang Heng nced at the game notifications that kept refreshing.


    [Hint: The yer''s zombie clone (fusion Licker form) deals 1,244 damage to therge war machine (Spider Armor V-88).]


    [Hint: The yer''s zombie clone (fusion Licker form) has destroyed arge war machine (Spider Armor V-88). Obtained 73 tree spirit contribution points.]


    [Hint: The yer''s current mission-clearing war machines has beenpleted at 52%.]


    Not bad.


    Fang Heng was somewhat d.


    Fortunately, before entering the World of Forests, he had modified some of the Lickers'' original devouring body forms and strengthened the Lickers'' damage output. Otherwise, he really wouldn''t have had a good way to deal with these iron skins.


    As transition light spots outside the research institute continued to elerate, the speed at which the war machines appeared increased.


    Relying on the Lickers, he could stillst for a while.


    Thinking about it carefully, he could still farm the tree spirit''s mission contribution points for a while longer.


    But now, Fang Heng had no hope of increasing the friendliness of the tree spirits.


    He looked behind him.


    The tree spirits had now firmly upied a circle of entrances outside the research institute.


    Due to their size, therge number of tree people outside could not enter the research institute area, so they could only stay outside to deal with the war machines that the Federation sent overter.
