Free Web NovelChapter 1048: Chapter 379: Huo Yong Shuts Down, Zombie Enemy
No, since it was said that the customers themselves would have to have an idea for it to be useful, how can it be considered a scam? It could also be showcased as a foreign trade display cabinet.
Wen Yan felt a bit regretful, oh well, perhaps after multiple experiments, they concluded that it wasn’t very suitable for use.
He continued walking around, gaining a fresh perspective.
He initially spotted a golden small cauldron and thought it was pure gold, but upon closer inspection of the label, it turned out to be a bronze artifact.
Wen Yan had heard before that some bronze artifacts have a natural gold color, but over time, a layer of patina forms on the surface turning it green, yet unexpectedly, he saw one in gold this time.
As he walked, he saw a triangular-shaped Black Stone, encased in thick transparent glass, with two symbols on it that he did not recognize.
Wen Yan got there and couldn’t move any further.
He saw the label.
"Black Stone."
"Contains massive amounts of Death Qi and corpse energy, presumed to be significantly related to zombies.
Estimated to be at least over 4000 years old.
If a living person comes into contact with it, they risk being contaminated by the corpse energy and Death Qi, and without timely treatment, there’s a danger of sudden death.
After death, there is a high probability of the body turning into a zombie.
Non-professionals, please do not touch."
Wen Yan frowned slightly, staring at the Black Stone for a long time, not because it was related to zombies.
But because he felt he had seen it somewhere before.
He generally disliked considering anything as an illusion or a misconception, but if he had seen it, there’s no reason he shouldn’t be able to recall it.
After staring at it for two minutes, he still could not remember.
He didn’t understand why he had this feeling of déjà vu, even though he had supposedly never seen it before.
Silently, he picked up the glass case.
He decided to select this as the third item.
Since it was said that professionals could touch it, even if he couldn’t use it, he could take it back to make it a pillow for the little zombie.
Anyway, he still didn’t really know what would be suitable to select; there were too many valuable things here.
He didn’t need much to rely on precision appraisal values to select items now, it was just an auxiliary method.
Another reason for selecting this Black Stone was that precise appraisal couldn’t provide a valuation for it either.
The result displayed by precise appraisal was three question marks.
Wen Yan left the warehouse carrying the glass case.
The Chief Secretary was also waiting there all along; being allowed to pick any item from the headquarters warehouse, within the Scorching Sun Department, was equivalent to earning first-class merit; it was an honor and a real benefit too.
Scorching Sun Department’s current philosophy is that abilities matter, honor can be given, treasures can be given, money can be given, and welfare can be given, whoever can earn it depends on their merit.
As the Spiritual Qi Resurgence accelerates and changes inevitably become more frequent and intense later, this method is the most suitable.
However, upon seeing what Wen Yan took out, the secretary was startled and couldn’t help but take a step back.
There are quite a few dangerous things in Warehouse No. 3, but those that need to be sealed entirely with special glass are few.
The Chief Secretary knew about this Black Stone; it was dug up by a villager back then, who didn’t think much of it and just took it back because it was the right size to press sauerkraut.
Who would have thought that in just a month, nine people in the village died suddenly, and after death, all of them turned into zombies.
When the Scorching Sun Department went to suppress it, there were already more than thirty wild zombies, and at that time, due to insufficient experience, several field agents were infected with corpse poison, and they even invited people from Fuyu Mountain, along with a Black-haired Zombie, to suppress the group of wild zombies there.
The Scorching Sun Department now has experience and technology in treating corpse poison, based on the technology shared by Fuyu Mountain, integrated with modern medicine, developed with high efficiency, and with ready-made portable serum. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
After this Black Stone was brought back, there were also several incidents of researchers poisoning themselves during the research process, and later it was completely sealed and thrown into the warehouse.
But since it’s Wen Yan who took it out, there’s no issue.
If this thing is taken out, it’s likely to be transferred to Fuyu Mountain, so it’s not a big deal.
As for the other two things Wen Yan took out, they didn’t pose any danger, just a roll of a bamboo scroll and a wooden talisman, very restrained.
He had previously heard the General Director sighing, saying that Wen Yan now often likes to read and study, borrowing books and records everywhere, diligently; little did they expect, with an opportunity to select freely, he only chose a bamboo scroll that, apart from not decaying, had nothing special about it.
"Do you want to carry these items with you, or should we send them back for you?"
"I’ll carry them myself; it’s just a few things."
"Okay, but before reaching a safe place, it’s best not to open the glass cover.
According to our experimental data, the Death Qi and corpse energy emitting from it, if not consumed, will continue to spread over time, which is actually quite dangerous.
For convenience, we will custom-make a new box for you and send it over.
Where would you like it delivered?"
"Thank you, just send it to my house."
"Okay, it will arrive tomorrow." The secretary understood, Wen Yan intended to bring the Black Stone back to his home, so this Black Stone might indeed be meant for his little zombie at home.
Considering the situation at Wenyan Family, it indeed isn’t much of a problem.
After seeing Wen Yan off, the secretary met with the General Director and reported on the items Wen Yan took, leaving the General Director a bit surprised.
"Just these three, he’s quite good at wasting opportunities."
