“Waiting my ass! What’s your name? What’s your employee ID? I’ll report you, you believe that or not! I’m giving you 10 seconds, you open this damned thing for me right now. I’ve said it before, this system is completely useless, it only adds to our burden! Can’t you all understand that!”

“I’m sorry, I’m an employee of the security department, I don’t know how to open it…”

“Listen to me, see that door locked on the right? Cut off the external power supply, then enter the password, the password is 1092419!”

“Okay, okay….”

Mo Jiawei smiled obsequiously, giving Fang Heng a gesture that he had it sorted.

Hey! Lucky!

What he needed came right when he needed it!

Mo Jiawei hurriedly ran over, found the internal control button, and disengaged the crisis lockdown.

“Whoosh!!”

The alloy metal door blocking the two of them slowly rose.

Behind the door, a gray-haired old man was spraying saliva at Mo Jiawei, looking furious, “I’m going to find your supervisor! Tell him to completely shut down this damned security system! It just affected my experiment! My precious experiment, half a month of effort all wasted! Does he know that!”

“I also think the boss of our security department is an idiot.” Fang Heng glanced at the old man and asked, “By the way, do you know the Water of Life laboratory on the twenty-sixth floor?”

The old man looked at Fang Heng with some surprise, momentarily speechless. He curled his lips and said, “Twenty-sixth floor, the second to last room on the innermost side.”

Let’s go!

The two ignored the old man and continued to walk towards the twenty-sixth floor.

Compared to the chaos below, the upper-level area of the research institute was very peaceful at this time.

Most of the researchers didn't know what was happening outside and were still calmly completing their work in the laboratory.

Most people didn't even know that the entrance passage had just been closed.

Even if they did know, they wouldn't take it seriously.

The researchers were conducting experiments in the laboratory. When they saw Fang Heng and Mo Jiawei pushing the door open and entering, they didn't even realize what was happening, they just felt strange.

Normally, the security department would never enter the laboratory at will.

The deputy director of the laboratory stepped forward and asked, “Gentlemen, this is a high-level laboratory, who are you looking for?”

Fang Heng closed the laboratory door behind him and took out the metal rod he always carried, “Actually, I took a job in the black market, I’m here to find the Water of Life, would you like to help me find it?”

The researchers looked at Fang Heng holding the iron rod, all feeling inexplicably strange.

“Leave here!” The deputy director of the laboratory frowned and walked towards Fang Heng, “If you don’t leave, I’ll call the guards!”

Whoosh!

Everyone felt a blur before their eyes, Fang Heng instantly flashed in front of the laboratory director, grabbed the director's collar and lifted him up.

In the next moment, the laboratory director was swung up high by Fang Heng with one hand, and with a bang, slammed heavily onto the experiment table.

“Thump!!!”

The entire experiment table was smashed to pieces!

The laboratory director immediately fainted.

“Sorry, I am the guard.” Fang Heng said, looking around at everyone, “Now, I’ll say it again, I’m here to find the Water of Life, who can help me with this?”

Everyone stared blankly at Fang Heng.

“Don’t, don’t be impulsive.”

A laboratory worker met Fang Heng’s fierce gaze, shuddered, and continued, “Water of Life! Yes, Water of Life! I know about the Water of Life, I have it, I’ll take you there, there’s as much as you want, don’t be impulsive…”

The worker raised his hands to signal Fang Heng to calm down, leading him towards the back of the laboratory.

“Everyone else, stand still and don’t move, I don’t want to do anything.”

Fang Heng said coldly, following the researcher into the corridor behind the laboratory with Mo Jiawei.

Following the corridor, they arrived at the second storage room.

The researcher opened the door to the laboratory, trembling.

“Huh?”

Looking at the scene in the room, Fang Heng was stunned.

The researcher glanced at Fang Heng and Mo Jiawei cautiously, and said in a low voice, “Here, here is all Water of Life, take as much as you want, we are just researchers, we don’t know anything else…”

“Ha?”

Bottled water?

The entire room was almost filled with barrels of bottled water.

It didn't look like a research institute, but more like a warehouse for a drinking water company.

Mo Jiawei looked at the scene in the room, his face showing a bit of confusion.

The legendary precious Water of Life?

This thing?

So much?

“You, you can take it all…” The researcher said, swallowing carefully, “Uh, if possible, it’s best to leave us a little, we still need it for experiments…”

Fang Heng frowned, walked to a barrel of Water of Life, opened the lid, and reached out to gently dab it.

A game prompt immediately appeared on his retina.

【Hint: Player has discovered - Water of Life】.

Item: Water of Life.

Description: Water containing a special power, it is said that this water can cure all diseases and prolong life.

Description (triggered through high-level Naturalism): The Water of Life contains a certain high-level natural energy, players can absorb the Water of Life to obtain Naturalism skill experience.

Indeed, the game description was correct, it was indeed the Water of Life.

But Fang Heng vaguely felt that something was wrong.

The overall progress of the mission was a bit too easy, completely mismatched with the SSS-level difficulty.

Moreover, in the item attributes, the Water of Life did not even specify the item level.

It didn't match the word 'precious' at all.

Was this thing really an important tool to open the 'Inner World' teleportation channel?

Fang Heng felt something was wrong.

Mo Jiawei also noticed something was wrong and couldn't help but turn to look at Fang Heng, asking, “Fang Heng, what do we do?”

Fang Heng turned to look at the researcher and asked, “Is the Water of Life very precious?”

“Uh… you shouldn’t have been fooled by the rumors outside, right?” The researcher listened, shrinking his neck cautiously, and continued, “Indeed, this water has a special power that can delay aging and have a positive effect on a large number of diseases.”

“However, curing all diseases and greatly increasing lifespan is a bit of an exaggeration, the effect is not as exaggerated as the outside says…”

“The Water of Life here was all obtained by the technology company from the ruins of the Tree Spirit Clan, I heard that it has all been brought here, we did many experiments in the early stage, and we have never been able to complete the replication, we believe that the Water of Life contains a special energy substance, this substance cannot be detected… so it produces such special effects…”
