Chapter 214 The Buried Seed
As the time goes,
The twelve members of the investigation team on the ground stood up one after another.
They rubbed their temples, looking somewhat dazed, seemingly having no recollection of what had just happened.
Brandon was the first to recover. He looked around, his gaze sweeping over Lin Fan, Domingo, and the members of the Vatican, and his brows immediately furrowed.
"What...what just happened?"
"You guys almost stepped into a pit just now, tripped over some loose rocks," Lin Fan casually offered an excuse without changing his expression.
Upon hearing his answer, Brandon looked down at his knees. Sure enough, there were traces of dirt on them, and his knees were also slightly sore.
Therefore, he did not doubt Lin Fan's words too much.
At this moment, Lin Fan didn't give him a chance to ask too many questions, and gave Domingo a wink.
The latter immediately understood, took a box from his pocket, walked up to Brandon, and handed it to him:
"Mr. Brandon, here is the information you need."
Brandon, still a little confused, looked at the amiable Domingo with a puzzled expression, and subconsciously took the box. He opened it and found several yellowed booklets inside.
For a moment, he was somewhat puzzled.
"This is……"
"Here is what you need; some of the research records left by the Vatican are here."
Domingo began by introducing,
"This is the foundational training theory for all things awakened."
Of course, the core technology is in the hands of the Pope, not on paper, so we can't help you with this information.
Ok?
Upon hearing Domingo's words, Brandon couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Although it was a good thing that things were going smoothly, for some reason, he always felt that something wasn't quite right.
People from the Vatican...
They're actually so easy to talk to?
Brandon flipped through a couple of pages with some confusion, but his brows gradually relaxed when he saw the contents.
The content looked quite professional, at least much more detailed than what they had seen before.
Of course, the true value of this information still needs to be assessed by experts.
He still felt it was a little unreal that he could get these things so easily.
What he didn't know was that while this information might be incredibly attractive to others, it was utterly useless to the Vatican, merely a facade to deceive people.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Seeing the other party's cooperation, Brandon was only happy and had no mind for anything else. He then looked at Lin Fan and said calmly,
"Mr. Lin Fan, it's a pleasure to meet you..."
"It's a pleasure to meet you all."
Lin Fan waved his hand to interrupt them, "You've got the goods, so please leave!"
Brandon paused for a moment, then nodded.
"Then we won't bother you any longer."
After saying that, he turned around and beckoned everyone to leave. But after taking only a few steps, he suddenly stopped and turned back.
"By the way, Mr. Lin Fan, there's something I'd like to remind you of."
"explain."
"Vatican disaster videos have spread all over the world. Although governments around the world are currently suppressing public opinion, the truth will eventually come out. We won't be the only ones coming after you in the future."
He paused for a moment.
"Some people...aren't as reasonable as us."
After saying that, he left with his men without any hesitation.
Reasoning?
Lin Fan found it somewhat amusing to watch the group's retreating figures.
Only after watching the three helicopters take off and gradually become black dots on the horizon did he turn his gaze away and couldn't help but ask in his mind.
"Big Crow, are you sure you've planted the seed?"
A wave of satisfaction emanated from Da Wu's spiritual sea, meaning, "Big Brother, you can rest assured that I've got things done."
"Won't it expire in a few days?"
Upon hearing Lin Fan's question, Da Wu sent a complex emotional message, as if it were throwing a tantrum. It took him a few seconds to decipher it.
The general idea is that unless confronted by a spiritual force of equal or even higher level, this deeply implanted alteration and seed will not disappear.
Moreover, as time goes on, the seeds and thoughts become more and more integrated, until eventually even they themselves can no longer distinguish which ideas are their own and which were implanted.
"good."
Lin Fan nodded in satisfaction.
Starting today, Brandon Hawke, Deputy Director of the Special Operations Division of the U.S. Department of Defense, Lyon, representative of France, and ten other elites from various countries...
They all became devout followers of the Great Crow.
They will return to their respective positions, continue their work, and continue to get promoted and receive raises.
But one day, when Lin Fan needed it, all he had to do was send a signal through the giant crow…
These people will carry out his orders without hesitation.
And they might even think it was their own idea.
Domingo.
"exist!"
"How's the moving going?"
"All major assets have been moved to a safe location. We can take them with us at any time."
"OK."
Lin Fan stretched, his joints cracking.
He looked up at the gray sky and squinted.
"Then let's pack up and leave."
Domingo was taken aback: "We're all leaving?"
"Isn't that obvious? This place is already in ruins, do you really want to rebuild it?"
"Forehead……"
Domingo looked around at the ruins...
reconstruction?
It's probably impossible!
He immediately nodded and said, "I'll arrange it right away!"
After saying that, he turned around and went to call for others.
Lin Fan stood alone at the edge of the deep pit, looking at the ravaged landscape before him.
The wind blew, stirring up sand and dust...
What a tragedy! Such a beautiful place has been ruined like this!
Originally, he intended to use this place as his base, but now it seems...
It's ruined!
Although he felt a little sorry for him, he felt less sorry after he noticed the symbols on the back of his hand.
The symbol was still faintly glowing at this moment.
He could still sense the group of tombstones in that void.
The three tombstones have developed cracks, and the cracks are slowly widening.
Especially the first one, the tombstone engraved with dark gold patterns, the cracks were so large that they could let in a clear light.
Lin Fan had a premonition, deep down.
What will come out when that tombstone completely cracks open?
He didn't know whether it was good or bad.
But he knew one thing... that moment wasn't far off.
Suddenly, he remembered Brandon's last words before he left.
Some people aren't as reasonable as they are.
That's quite a coincidence.
He has never been a reasonable person.
Just like before our eyes, a two-thousand-year-old empire of faith has finally become a white wasteland.
……
Meanwhile, on the helicopter where the investigation team was leaving.
Brandon eagerly flipped through the documents in his hands.
His expression was normal, his thinking was clear, and his memory was intact.
However, he was unaware that in the deepest part of his consciousness, a pair of vertical pupils were quietly gazing into the darkness.
Waiting to be awakened.
Of course, he wasn't the only one; the other eleven investigators on the plane were in the same situation...
