Chapter 830 - Stealing a Coffin and Returning a Pearl

The cold weapon is still four meters long. If it is on the open ground, it may still be a threat. However, in the underground passage which is not spacious, it is simply a decoration. It is not known whether it can be wielded. Its lethality is almost non-existent. . When they saw Lin Mo approaching with Longinus on his back, the two armed guards with live ammunition did not take it seriously. They still had their M4 carbines slung across their shoulders and intercepted him outside the gate of the vault area in accordance with safety regulations.

However, Mr. Ross, the owner of Scarlett Manor, came to the vault area again at this time.

Hearing the voices behind him, Lin Mo turned around and saw a middle-aged white man with a dozen armed men appearing behind him. There was a secret door on the passage wall about fifty meters away that was quietly closing. .

These people seemed to have just walked out of a secret passage. If not, they would have died in the recent ferocious beast riot.

The middle-aged white man stared at the Longinus gun on Lin Mo's shoulder. He moved his eyes to Lin Mo again and said in a deep voice: "Young man, where did you get this Longinus?"

"Picked it up?"

Lin Mo glanced at the spear in his hand and shrugged.

At that time, the spear was stuck on the ground all alone. Lin Mo took advantage of it, but he didn't expect it to be so easy to use. It was an unexpected gain.

As for the old guy he saved, is there any proof that he belongs to him? This thing belongs to whomever it is in, as it should be.

"Picked it up?" The middle-aged white man looked stunned, a touch of sadness appeared on his face, and his eyes dropped. He seemed to be mourning someone and said to himself: "Claude Dupont, old man, are you going too?"

Although he is hiding in a secret place underground, as the owner of Scarlett Manor, Mr. Ross can still have a general grasp of everything that happens in the manor.

The second monitoring system activated in an emergency can only monitor key core areas. It does not cover the entire Scarlett Manor. Through the camera, Mr. Ross can only see the army brought by his old friend Dupont fighting fiercely with two ferocious beasts. There were heavy casualties, and the huge container truck was overturned. In the end, the life and death of his old friend Mr. Dupont was not seen. The more than one hundred U.S. Army soldiers in the manor failed to save old Dupont's life. Mr. Ross felt chills all over. The products of the military's secret biochemical laboratory were really terrible.

It was not until it was confirmed that the two beasts that escaped had been killed that Mr. Ross took his cronies and family members out of the hiding place and hurried to the vault area to check if anyone was taking advantage of the situation. Unexpectedly, he accidentally saw the transaction he had just made. Longinus' spear out.

"Young man, have you seen Mr. Dupont's body? Or any relics?"

Mr. Ross' eyes gradually became sharp when he looked at Lin Mo. Because he has been in a high position for a long time, he is used to bossing around, and he has naturally developed the aura of a superior who is not angry but powerful.

In order to give an explanation to the old man's family. He must collect the body for his old friend.

Unfortunately, an accident occurred in the underground arena "Crystal Cage". The extremely strong transparent crystal bulletproof glass wall could not withstand the life-threatening impact of biochemical warfare beasts from the military's secret biochemical laboratory. After continuous impact, it exceeded the designed endurance and exploded. There was a big hole. Two ferocious beasts immediately sprang out and started killing, even the senior engineers in the laboratory were not spared.

The arena fell into great terror and turned into a hell on earth. If they had not mastered the backup emergency plan for the underground building complex and transferred from the secret passage, I am afraid that Mr. Ross and Mr. Dupont would have had a great possibility of running into the two ferocious beasts head-on. .

None of the preset intelligent combat robots in the underground passage could block these two ferocious beasts. The two beasts were forced to break out, but they unexpectedly killed Mr. Dupont, who was in a hurry to leave.

If he had known earlier, he should have kept him in the secret passage for a while. He was soft-hearted and allowed old Dupont to leave too much. Unexpectedly, he killed his old friend, which made Mr. Ross feel very guilty.

"Mr. Dupont? Who is it?" Lin Mo shook his head. He himself was coerced and was not familiar with the people in this manor at all.

"How come you don't know?"

Mr. Ross couldn't believe what Lin Mo said. Although the second monitoring system was not so densely distributed, according to common sense, the location of Old Dupont should not be far from the Longinus spear.

Since we were able to pick up the spear, there should be a high possibility of seeing the remains of our old friend Mr. Dupont. Could it have been eaten by a ferocious beast? Mr. Ross's heart tightened, but he reluctantly repeated the appearance of his old friend. As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Mo said: "It's that old gentleman! Oh, it's okay, he's still alive! I guess he was quite frightened?"

"Scared? What? Still alive?" Mr. Ross's eyes suddenly widened, he couldn't help but took a step forward, stared at Lin Mo and said, "Are you telling the truth?"

Lin Mo nodded vigorously without speaking.

"Soren, Hank, you take a few people up, bring Mr. Dupont down and put him in a good place, bring more medical bags, and ask Dr. South to go up with him to see if there are any people up there who are not alive yet."

Mr. Ross turned his head and said seriously, with a bit of hope in his tone.

"Yes, Mr. Ross!"

Behind them, two people from the team came out and hurried away with five or six manor guards.

"Young man, I still don't know what to call you. What's the matter?"

After hearing that his old friend was still alive, Ross, who was originally feeling heavy due to the destruction of the manor and the heavy casualties among his guests, felt a little better, and his attitude towards Lin Mo became friendly.

He didn't know about the grudge between Lin Mo and Zeger, and he probably hated the Japanese who brought terrible disaster to Scarlett Manor. "Mr. Ross, my name is Mo Lin, and I'm here to get what belongs to me!" Lin Mo took out two alloy keys and waved them in front of everyone.

When Mr. Ross saw it, it turned out to be a special key in the manor's vault, and he immediately understood.

Maybe there is something valuable being stored here. Through the special configuration of the dual keys, you can guess that it may be a bet. This kind of thing is not uncommon.

"No problem, please help yourself!" Mr. Ross nodded and said to the two vault guards: "Open the door. I want to go in with Mr. Morin."

"Yes, Mr. Ross, please wait!"

The two vault guards immediately called the duty room in the vault to open the door and performed a series of opening steps.

It didn't take a while. The heavy steel door with a diameter of about four meters was opened, and Mr. Lin Mo and Mr. Ross walked towards the opened door.

The vault door adopts double-layer protection measures, and there is a stronger door constructed of special alloy and composite materials.

Only four confidants with a strong temperament followed Lin Mo and Mr. Ross in. Others stood guard outside.

The real warehouse door on this floor slowly moved to the left and right.

Ding dong!

The two alloy keys in Lin Mo's hands fell to the ground unconsciously, making a crisp impact sound.

Compared with when Lin Mo came a few hours ago, the inside of the vault area had completely changed. To be precise, it has completely changed.

"Is this? What's going on here?"

The dragon knight stared blankly at the interior, which revealed a gray and extremely ugly cement wall, cement pillars, cement floor, and even exposed refractory bricks.

There should have been a layer of fence as thick as an egg blocking the gate, and a thick metal wall dividing multiple areas. However, now it is completely missing, and the view inside has become extremely wide.

All kinds of strange things such as porcelain, paintings, and a small amount of metal products were piled everywhere on the ground.

Alloy walls and alloy floors should be seen everywhere in the entire huge warehouse area. There are also metal plates wrapping the pillars, and almost most of the metal-related decorations are missing. The entire warehouse has become larger invisibly.

The empty hanging light tubes feebly provided illumination to this space that seemed to have been haunted.

"Damn it! What happened here?"

Mr. Ross was stunned at first, then suddenly became furious, "Guard! What on earth is going on?"

"Ah! How could this happen? How could it happen? No. Wait!" Guarding between the two warehouse gates, the guard in the buffer zone looked at the world in the warehouse area in disbelief and rubbed his eyes. Damn it, inside the warehouse area Everything seemed completely unrecognizable, and it was as if there was another alien space behind this door. One of the guards ran back to the duty room in anger. But he was shocked to see that the bright warehouse area full of metallic luster was still on the monitoring display screen. It was a completely normal and harmonious picture. ,

However, compared with the real situation inside the reservoir area that I just saw with my own eyes, the picture on the display screen was a bit strange.

The guard shuddered and immediately realized that maybe the cameras or even the surveillance system had been tampered with. Just as he was about to go back and report, his neck suddenly tightened and he was pulled off the ground. He was dragged back by Mr. Ross's bodyguard.

A threatening warning sounded in his ears: "Be honest, what happened here? Why is this happening? Has anyone else been here?" Apparently the bodyguard thought someone had come to take advantage of the situation.

"No, no, I don't know what happened! I don't know anything."

The guard quickly shouted that he was wronged, but the next second he kept his mouth shut and did not dare to speak. A pistol was coldly pressed between his eyebrows, as if he would pull the trigger at any time and blow his head into pieces. .

"Keep an eye on him, let's go in!"

Ross, who was used to seeing strong winds and waves, quickly calmed down. He knew that even shouting and hysteria could not save the most important vault area in the village from becoming like this.

One bodyguard was left to watch over the guards while the others filed in cautiously following Mr. Ross.

After entering the warehouse area, Lin Mo quickly walked towards the location where he and Zeger kept the safe.

As expected, the isolation walls and safes were gone, but where the technical information and samples were stored, there was a large silver box.

The box was not locked. Lin Mo reached out and opened it. He saw that the "Boyce Hydrogen Oxygen Decomposition Tank" technology verification prototype and technical information including a key-shaped USB flash drive were placed in the box.

Looking at the inexplicably extra box, Lin Mo discovered something unusual.

"Huh?" Mr. Ross, who was inspecting the damage, let out a surprised exclamation.
