1497 Fishing People out
Shan Fucai opened the folder he had just received and began to flip through it. He then said, “In the ruins of the manor in the suburbs, we found an energy reaction higher than A-level. Our 7th Division has already taken over this matter and investigated it in detail, so tell me, what exactly happened?”
Seeing Ruan Ziying nod at him, Fang Heng roughly explained.
“I discovered an anomaly in natural energy fluctuation during my cultivation. I followed the source of the fluctuation to a wall, and behind the wall, I found a hidden room. Then, I found a tree inside.”
Shan Fucai and Ruan Ziying looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.
It was not because of the tree, but because of Fang Heng!
Shan Fucai looked at Fang Heng with a sharp gaze.
Who was this guy?
Shan Fucai knew that Ruan Ziying had bought a manor. Due to Edoma Cervantes’ special identity, he had personally followed her to investigate, but the result was the same as Ruan Ziying’s.
Yet Fang Heng found the secret room on the first day?
Ruan Ziying also opened her mouth and asked, “And then? What kind of tree is it?”
Fang Heng thought for a moment, then gestured and described, “The tree is not tall, about three meters tall, but it is very thick. It requires more than 20 people to surround it to hug it. The leaves are in the shape of catkins, and they are purple. I have never seen this kind of tree before.”
Fang Heng suddenly paused and shifted his gaze to Shan Fucai.
Recalling the entire incident, he suddenly realized that he had neglected a very important thing.
Occult!
In essence, absorbing energy from trees was related to the occult.
He knew the occult.
In the skill panel, he had Level 2 basic occult.
Thinking back, when he first came into contact with the occult, it was also to understand the strange ritual on his body.
At that time, he sought help from Mo Jiawei’s uncles, Mo Yunxiao and Mo Jianghe.
After some basic training related to meditation, he triggered the occult imprint on his body and learned basic occultism.
However, the subsequent cultivation of the occult was very troublesome. At that time, he could only increase his experience points by reading.
After reading a few books in Mo Yunxiao’s house, his occult level was only raised to Level 2.
That’s right!
Thinking about it carefully, there was another important point.
He was able to obtain academic talent experience points in the process of learning academic skills because of the existence of the occult.
Fang Heng suddenly had a feeling that this game world might have something to do with the occult.
Shan Fucai listened to Fang Heng’s narration and looked at Ruan Ziying, asking, “You know more about natural science. Have you heard anything about this tree?”
Ruan Ziying nodded and pondered, “I’m not sure. From the description, there are no plants that meet the standard. It’s very likely that it’s a special species that Edoma Cervantes has cultivated.”
Fang Heng came back to his senses and looked at the two of them curiously. He asked, “Edoma? Who?”
“The previous owner of the manor. She was also a naturalist.”
“Oh.”
Shan Fucai continued to shift his gaze to Fang Heng and asked, “What happened after that?”
“Then, I tried to get close to it, thinking of using natural science to see if there was anything strange about this tree. Then, I sensed a strange energy fluctuation. Yes, the energy fluctuation that seeped out from under the tree. I felt that it was not good, so I wanted to leave. Just as I left the room, I realized that the fluctuation was getting stronger and stronger, so I sped up and left the manor.”
Shan Fucai flipped through the information in his hands.
“What you said just now is roughly in line with the report analysis given by the Occult Investigation Joint Committee. The report believes that Edoma Cervantes is conducting occultism experiments below, and it is related to the unknown plant in your secret room.”
“Your arrival broke some sort of balance and triggered the protective device, so it exploded.”
Shan Fucai took out another cigarette. He didn’t light it, but put it in his mouth and took a sip. He continued, “I suspect that it might be some kind of bizarre object. We need to make sure that the bizarre object didn’t spread and died in this explosion. As for the manor, it will be sealed by the committee for the time being. Don’t go near it.”
Fang Heng looked at Ruan Ziying and scratched his head, “Sorry, I blew up your house.”
“As long as you are okay.”
Ruan Ziying yawned.
Until now, she had not taken the explosion to heart. She only thought that it was a coincidence.
It was just an accident.
As for the fact that Fang Heng could sense the changes in the room…
Given that he was a World Lord, even though she was surprised that he had such a special ability, it made sense.
Shan Fucai looked at Fang Heng.
Years of investigation experience told Shan Fucai that Fang Heng was hiding something.
Of course, everyone had their secrets, and it was very likely that it had nothing to do with the incident itself.
“Hello?”
After he picked up the call and hung up, Shan Fu’s face revealed a thoughtful expression.
Ruan Ziying noticed the odd expression on the face of Shan Fucai and asked curiously, “Leader? What is it? Why do you look so pale?”
“Something has happened. We found traces of high-intensity pollution sources at the scene. The pollution has the possibility of spreading. The current source of pollution is already being tracked.”
It was actually pollution!
So that tree was very likely to be the source of pollution?
Ruan Ziying’s expression changed and she turned around to look at Fang Heng.
Shan Fucai also shifted his gaze to Fang Heng and said in a deep voice, “Fang Heng, you’re the person who has been in close contact with the source of pollution. It’s very likely that you’ve already been contaminated.”
“Hmm?”
Fang Heng looked baffled.
Pollution? What did he mean?
“You are directly involved in this incident. In theory, I can ask you to assist in the investigation before the investigation of this incident is clear. I also need to ensure that you don’t leave my sight 24 hours a day. However, considering the existence of pollution and the high risk of the current investigation, I can’t guarantee your safety.”
“I’ll send you back to the pollution control center now. After everything is settled…”
Ruan Ziying quickly interrupted him, “Wait, Fang Heng is my friend. I guarantee that we can take him to Cole’s place first.”
Shan Fucai thought for a moment and shook his head, “No, it’s too dangerous. With an A-level energy reaction coupled with a pollution reaction, the pollution spreads very quickly. If he’s really contaminated, he’ll also become a transmitter of the pollution. We might be in big trouble, so isolation and protection is the best choice at the moment.”
Fang Heng listened to the argument between the two of them and was extremely confused. He could not help but ask, “Cough, cough. You guys have been discussing this for so long. What exactly is pollution?”
