Chapter 2927 Internal Problems
"The clan sensed the threat from the Black Mist Game and invited us, the Western Federation, to join the alliance to jointly deal with the spread of the Black Mist and the Seed of Ouroboros."
"As for the many special clauses in the alliance, for us, at least for now, the West District Federation as a whole believes that this is beneficial, so as you can see, after the discussion and voting, the West District Federation chose to join the clan alliance and build the star map."
"but……"
Augustine changed the subject, a sharp look flashing in his eyes, "Joining the alliance does not mean that we have to surrender to the clan. Only when we truly master our own power can we have a say. Otherwise, we will gradually become puppets and playthings."
"So we focused our attention on the Seed of Ouroboros."
"The Ouroboros Seed can make the Familia so fearful, so its potential is self-evident. We want to try to gradually control this power for our own use. Therefore, while we are carrying out the mission issued by the Familia, we are also trying to collect the Ouroboros Seed cocoons for investigation."
"Ahem," Zoran coughed lightly, and continued with Augustine's words: "This matter has passed the resolution of the Western Federation Central Council. The development of the cocoon is under the responsibility of our military. However, in actual operation, the military encountered difficulties in the research of the cocoon, so we asked for help from the Black Mist Crisis Management Office."
"It's just some research within our capabilities. The military will place the collected cocoons on the ship, and we will jointly conduct research and development to try to control the power of the Ouroboros Seed."
"Before, the relevant cocoon collection and research and development work had been proceeding in an orderly manner, until yesterday, when we encountered trouble."
Augustine glanced at the Minister of Supervision who was following the team and continued, "Have you heard of the Deputy Minister of Supervision, Emery?"
Fang Heng's heart moved.
Recognize.
He had met this guy on Giselle's ship just a few days ago.
"After the disappearance of the ship's crystal worm and the subsequent cocoon incident, Emery entered the test area to investigate with the Central Council's investigation team."
Augustine looked solemn as he continued, "During the investigation, the cocoons suddenly became abnormal and gathered into mutant creatures that attacked the research institute and then escaped from the research and development room."
A player frowned and asked, "Are you saying that the chrysalis mutated and escaped?"
"Yes."
"Where did you go?"
Augustine took a deep breath and said, "Black Mist Game."
Everyone looked at each other, feeling confused.
What do you mean?
Wasn't the cocoon already in the Black Mist game?
"In fact, through some exchanges of interests with the clan, we got some information about how to use the Black Mist Game."
"Simply put, through the clan's black fog technology and the black fog pillars, we can enter and exit some of the existing black fog crystal games in a physical way."
"You are now in the underground black fog crystal area of the Star Chart Network Control Center. The place where you are standing is the fixed transmission hall area."
"We later found out that after the Zerg incident broke out, Emery from the Federal Supervision Department sent a transfer request."
"After the teleportation was completed, the traces left at the scene showed that the teleportation hall area was also attacked by alien insects."
When everyone heard this, they fell silent.
The trouble is big.
All the players present, except for the federal personnel, have conducted in-depth research on the Seed of Ouroboros and are clearly aware of its strength.
Even if it is just a damaged Ouroboros Seed, once it enters the real world...
The whole world will be shrouded in the shadow of eternal natural disasters.
In the silence, a young female player asked: "I have a question, what is Emery's purpose in doing this?"
"It's still under investigation." Augustine said solemnly, "We believe this incident was premeditated. We have investigated Emery's background and identity in detail and found that his recent behavior is somewhat abnormal. We infer that he is most likely a spy from other regional federations or even the Central Federation."
"This matter has not been concluded yet, Augustine, it is better not to make any further assertions." The Minister of Supervision Zachli stepped forward and said, "I know Emery. He cannot be a traitor brought in by other forces. There must be something fishy about this matter."
Zachli looked at everyone. "We have offended many people in the Supervision Department, but we have absolutely no regrets. Being able to enter the Supervision Department, the internal review is stricter than any other department. The Supervision Department does not recognize Emery as an external spy."
Charlene interrupted the two people's attempt to blame each other and asked coldly, "What does the Western District Federation need me to do?"
"Today, everyone here is an expert who knows a lot about the Seed of Ouroboros. We invite you to come and assist us in the investigation. We hope to find the cause of this incident and where Emery went."
Augustine nodded and said, "We can now confirm that Emery has come here. This is the first scene. Let's take a look and see if there is anything we can find."
Upon hearing this, everyone dispersed and carefully observed the traces left on the ground again.
Fang Heng came to a corroded floor and squatted down to take a closer look.
A light green mucus remained deep in the trace.
Mucus has extremely strong corrosive properties.
It looks like the Seed of Ouroboros has completed its evolution.
Very weird.
In the cocoon state, the Ouroboros seed should be in a stable state.
It will not evolve into polymers.
So someone must have used some method to allow the cocoon to wake up and evolve.
Was it Emery from the Supervision Department who did it?
Fang Heng thought about it and slowly stood up.
Captain Zuo Lan stood beside Fang Heng and asked in a low voice: "How is it? Fang Heng, did you find anything?"
"Well, the cocoon was transformed by external stimuli, and it has partially merged with the external life form. The main body has been strengthened. It is basically certain that this is not an ordinary laboratory accident."
Fang Heng paused and continued, "It can be confirmed that the traces were left by the fusion of the cocoon and the unknown creature."
Sharin appeared on Fang Heng's right, nodded and added: "The Ouroboros Seeds in the initial fusion state are generally not very strong. The ability of the Ouroboros Seeds alone cannot break through the internal defenses of the laboratory. To cause such damage, there must be assistance from internal personnel."
Another middle-aged man wearing black glasses added, "In addition, even if the damaged cocoons are revived, they will only have extremely low intelligence for a long time. They will only follow their biological instincts and spread their species. They can't be smart enough to open a teleportation station and be sent there."
"What is that place?"
A woman suddenly pointed to the passage on the right and said, "The traces of the Ouroboros fusion lead there."
"That is the biggest secret of the Star Map Control Center - the core area of the black fog."
Augustine spread his hands and walked towards the right passage. "Let's go. We'll take you to the Black Mist Core." (End of this chapter)
