I changed the timeline with the game.

Chapter 587: Mass extinction virus, current world crisis!

Seeing the old man, Su Wen did not act immediately.

Instead, the soldiers belonging to Duke Christopher's guard, armed with real guns, took action first. They stood at attention facing Su Wen and his group and then temporarily lifted their guard.

Then,

Regina, who had been holding the folder and confronting the old dean coldly, finally came forward.

She said to Angelica:

"Miss,
It is said that the dean came here to represent the interests of Wanling College.

He wanted to investigate the information in the ruins, but because of the ownership of the ruins that we and Aurora had determined earlier, he was stopped here by us."

Su Wen quietly turned on the identification perspective and scanned and tested it calmly.

But the final result was actually the same as the scan result of the big guy from the Dragon Research Society in New York State:
Besides four simple words:

[Identification: Level 5 (Gold)]

Other than that,

It's all a series of question marks.

At this moment, even he couldn't help but have a little more praise for Christopher's guards.

To dare to stop a fifth-level transcendent, one does need to have enough courage.

But Su Wen is not completely without any trump cards.

Among the beautiful sirens from Atlantis who were rescued by him and then sent to the Lost Sea, there were quite a few of them at the fourth and fifth levels.

just,

That's his biggest trump card.

Moreover, the impact of the Higgs boson creation experiment is so huge that it may even plunge the entire Origin Century into madness.

Therefore,
Even though he had already established contact with the little mermaid Cece in the Lost Sea, he felt that he still needed to remain cautious.

And Su Wen will be heading to Lawrence Riel College after the Chinese New Year to study the Lost Sea space, which may also be influenced by this factor.

He had already piled up too many problems that needed to be solved by delving deeper into the Sea of Lost.

Whether it is the high-energy space field theory, the definition of the lost sea, or the exploration of ocean tides.

Even the Star Track Project and the Window on the Universe Project need to be implemented one by one.

So when facing the Vice President Carl von Palmer-Williams from All Souls College, Oxford.

He hopes to find a more gentle solution.

Moreover, before entering the ruins, Su Wen had already communicated properly with the EU Aurora Organization and even signed a corresponding ownership agreement.

This is to avoid unnecessary disputes.

in other words,

He can be sure:
The arrival of this fifth-rank old dean must have meant that Oxford All Souls College had encountered some serious problems.

As a psychologist,

Su Wen immediately thought about Dean Williams' purpose of coming, and even how to solve the problem in case of a conflict between the two.

But he didn't say anything.

Because Angelica was by his side.

He understood that although the princess's attitude towards him seemed more intimate and bolder, it did not mean that she had become a weaker girl.

On the contrary,

He understood that the current Duke's daughter was no longer the same person she used to be when it came to professional negotiations.

After listening to Regina's statement, Angelica

She confirmed with Su Wen with her eyes:
Then, without any stage fright, he spoke to the dean with the aristocratic bearing of Grand Duke Christopher:
"Dean Williams,
I already understand that your intention is to enter this relic, which Christopher is not completely unacceptable.

But according to the Aurora Agreement, the ownership of this relic has been confirmed.

If you want to enter it, you need to pay the corresponding fee.

Of course, I think that with the golden rank of Vice President of Wanling College, I will at least give you some compensation that matches your worth."

"As expected of Christopher, the new young Grand Duke." Dean Williams took off his black hat and placed it on his chest elegantly like an old English gentleman.
“If anyone looks down on you because of your age.

I think he will get the retribution he deserves.

But don't worry, I don't mean any harm, it's just an emergency.

After I got the news from the EU that Lesionton was conducting research on Tertiary viruses in the Baltic ruins, I immediately rushed here.

Such actions may have given you a bad impression. "

"Is it an emergency?"

Su Wen caught this key word and asked calmly:

"Dean Williams,
You didn't tell Miss Regina at the beginning what exactly she needed to get to enter the ruins.

But now that we're back here, I need to know more precisely."

Dean Williams, an old gentleman from England, said slowly:
“Within the control of All Souls Academy, our explorers encountered a highly toxic relic virus.

In fact, several students were on the verge of death due to the virus.

Its origin can be traced back to the Third Age, so I want to enter the ruins under your control to find a way to save it."

“Mass Extinction Virus!

I didn’t expect that they actually brought the Third Era Star Field-level Destruction Factor to the present world and used it to start a border war.”

Su Wen said seriously,
"According to my observation, within this 13th non-purified area,
Les Ondon is still in the research stage of this virus.

Consider it from another angle.

They may also have other related Third Epoch civilization relics in their hands."

No wonder they were able to know the information about the Silver Mechanical City in the history of the Third Age civilization.

Su Wen did not say this final analysis aloud, but he finally determined why those guys were able to know so much information in advance.

And hear him say that.

Dean Williams didn't hold back:
"The Phrygian Ruins, the S-level border relic 'Hand of Midas'.

This is the biggest help for them to discover the remains of the Third Epoch civilization in advance."

"The Midas Touch of the God of Gold?"

The old dean stroked his beard and then said slowly:
"right,

The legend of turning stone into gold.

That is actually a real relic from the Third Age.

The Les-Anton expedition had worked with Finland to obtain the legendary relic.

Although the activation conditions of the Hand of Midas are extremely harsh.

But by sacrificing humans or other more valuable items, they can find the location of the ruins door.

And just as the legend of Midas ended, the king eventually melted everything into gold.

Sacrifice,

That's the 'price' of it.

This is also why the 'Hand of Midas' is defined as an S-level border relic, or even an S-level sealed relic."

"No wonder they are so keen on human experiments."

A trace of solemnity appeared in Su Wen's eyes.
"Could it be that:

The transformed humans will be more valuable as sacrifices?"

“There are really few people who can think of this.”

Dean Williams couldn't help but praise Su Wen for being able to keep up with his thinking.
But the old gentleman simply stated the harsher truth calmly:

"It's just like that.
There should be a way to salvage everything.

But according to the secret investigation of the Postman and the Courier.

They must have reached some unknown agreement with California and even with the United States.
