Successful Return

There are many green crystals in the cabinet containing level 5 crystals. Tom took three level 3 crystals and five level 2 crystals. On the other side of the corner, there were also some red crystals, and Tom rudely took two level 3 ones and four level 2 ones.

The large red crystal is wrapped in black cloth to prevent it from being reflected off by the surrounding lights and attracting the attention of others.

Tom uses 4.5 times the arm strength of level 3 amethyst, with 90 points of strength wrapped around level 5 amethyst, to pass through the stairs, open the iron door, and ascend to the rooftop.

The reason for using level 3 crystals instead of the level 5 crystals held in your hand is because these level 5 crystals are too large. Once activated, the red light emitted by such a large object at night will turn into a lighthouse, making it easy for others to notice.

Then he went back to restore and close the double iron doors in their original state in the warehouse, to prevent others from seeing any clues.

Returning to the rooftop, Tom carried the level 5 red crystal onto his back and walked to the eastern edge.

A two-story office building is located to the east of the warehouse building, and a 12 centimeter high wall is nearby, separating the security courtyard from the outside.

At this moment, Cheng Fuhua was driving a car from the internal affairs department parked below, waiting for him to come down.

If level 3 crystals are activated to enhance leg strength, he can jump up to 45 centimeters high. If it is level 4 or even level 5, it will be even higher.

Jumping from low to high is possible, and jumping from high to low is also possible, but this is in a normal state.

Now Tom is carrying a heavy level 5 red crystal on his back. Even if he activates this crystal and jumps down, the heavy burden will bring about gravitational potential energy that will break his spine. So you need to hold it with your arms in order to bear it.

As for the parachute, at such a low altitude, there is no chance for the umbrella to fully open, resulting in a true free fall.

But the strength mode for strengthening arm strength and the speed mode for strengthening leg strength can only activate one at a time.

For this reason, Tom put on a specially made metal handguard, which was adorned with a glass bottle.

The R&D department of the shelter created a jade rabbit shaped armor based on the awakening armor blueprint provided by Tom, and one of the techniques surprised Tom. That is, they mixed a liquid with alcohol, and the activated crystal enhanced energy surprisingly achieved temporary storage in these liquids.

The crystal energy temporary storage technology invented by Lin Meiqi is to place thoughts in the crystal, release them, and activate abilities by meeting the crystal.

This alcohol temporarily stores the psychic effect obtained by activating the crystal, which slows down the transmission speed when passing through the liquid.

The former's temporary ideas can be stored in temporary crystals for a long time, while the latter only delays the effect. The delay time is related to the amount of liquid.

By relying on technology, the shelter has created crystal bombs with timed effects and shortened the cooldown time for awakeners to switch abilities.

Before returning to the shelter, Tom poured the liquid from the Jade Rabbit Type II armor into a water bottle and quietly brought it back. So when Liu Lian had a headache for Tom about how to carry such a large crystal down the fourth floor, he naturally thought of that bottle of liquid.

He used this liquid as a hand protector, which naturally slowed down the activation of power.

The temporary storage crystals that were previously installed on the handle of the deformed large knife were kept at Ouyang Haotian's home and were not brought into the factory with the large knife. When making the hand guard for delayed power, it's perfect to use.

Two level 3 red crystals, one tied to the leg and the other placed on a hand guard with a delayed liquid bottle.

Tom first infused the idea of strengthening his power into the temporary crystal, and then disconnected the connection between the temporary crystal and the handguard. After waiting for three seconds, the cooldown of the ability switch was completed, and then the switch was turned on. The thoughts stored in the crystal were transmitted to the level 2 red crystal on the hand guard.

The red crystal on the arm emitted a red light, but the ability that affected the arm was temporarily intercepted in the alcohol bottle.

When the time came, Tom immediately activated the explosive speed mode of his legs, picked up the crystal and jumped high out of the edge of the roof, crossed a two-story building next to him, and jumped towards the outer wall of the security courtyard to the east.

In mid air, the ability flows through the liquid bottle and reaches Tom's arms, giving his hands 4.5 times the strength of their arms and 90 points of strength.

The landing time was very short, and Tom's legs increased their explosive power, landing steadily on the ground. And with the help of the protective liquid, his arm still maintained a 90 point strength, firmly holding onto the level 5 red crystal, buffering off all falling movements.

He jumped right in front of Cheng Fuhua's electric van, but he startled Cheng Fuhua sitting in the car.

Cheng Fuhua pushed open the car door and jumped out of the car, exclaiming, "Mom, Brother An, you're like Iron Man landing on the ground. You're so handsome."

Tom nodded and looked around to make sure if anyone saw him. Cheng Fuhua smiled and blew a whistle before pulling open the back carriage. "Don't worry, Brother An, Xiao Gao is staring around. The east side of the security department courtyard is remote, don't worry, everyone is going to the town center square to watch the excitement during this time. There's no one around," he said

After Tom stuffed the red crystal into the van carriage, Gaudi Sheng ran back from the intersection across the street. He gasped for breath and said, "Ang, you jumped too fast, I can't even see you landing. I've been keeping an eye on the surroundings and haven't noticed anyone passing by. Everything is safe."

"Get in the car, let's go!" Tom said briefly before getting into the passenger seat.

The car drove out from the east courtyard wall of the security department, passed the intersection, took a turn, and accelerated forward. Cheng Fuhua follows the route planned by Liu Lian, avoiding the crowds and the route of the Zhongyuan Festival float parade tonight. They need to return to the ant colony as soon as possible with the least number of witnesses. After all, with such a large crystal in the car, if someone stops you halfway, it's impossible to hide it.

Cheng Fuhua drove the car with seven turns and eight turns, specifically circling around the road with few people. Gao Disheng sat in the back compartment, turned on his flashlight, and looked at the large piece of red crystal in surprise.

"Brother An, this thing is still very valuable before we shrink it down. I mean, even if it doesn't give people superpowers. These twelve faces are so smooth, the color is so pure, and the surface is so smooth. Hey... Brother An, if this thing is accidentally broken, is it still useful?"

Tom shook his head and said, "The shattered crystal cannot resonate and cannot be used, which is regrettable, so it is necessary to ensure the integrity of the crystal."

"If there is overall coherence, then there must be structures inside that are coherent that we cannot see with the naked eye. And it also contains energy. Nature is really amazing."

Tom gave a bitter smile and said, "This is probably not the credit of nature."

Cheng Fuhua drove in agreement and said, "Yes, Brother An, I don't think it counts either. Damn it, these gods and Buddhas all over the world don't have the ability to kill most of the people on Earth and turn the rest into such a small volume."

"Aliens?" Gaudi Sheng pondered on his cheeks. "Perhaps the gods and Buddhas in our mythology are actually aliens. They are the kind that can grow bigger and smaller. You see, Sun Wukong will undergo seventy-two transformations, including becoming bigger."

Tom chuckled, while Cheng Fuhua turned around and glared at him, "Xiaogao, what kind of mess are you thinking about... What's the point with Sun Wukong... I'll wipe it off."

Before he could finish speaking, he stepped on the brake and Tom stumbled along with Xiao Gao.

"What the hell is this? How could the float come here?"

I saw rows of brightly lit floats driving across the road, with people dressed up and playing various roles.

"Oh no, how could the float take this road?" Xiao Gao stood up in the back and stared at the flowing river of cars. "There are many people at the intersection, what should we do?"

"Reverse, go back!" Cheng Fuhua said decisively, then pulled up the gear to prepare for reverse, but Tom shouted, "No, there's a car behind you."

Cheng Fuhua turned around and indeed saw three electric cars appearing behind him. "Damn it! It must have turned out at the intersection we just passed by. How could there be a car at this time?"

The car behind was a bit impatient, honking its horn twice. It seemed like it was in a hurry to go ahead and see the float. And for the sake of concealment, they all took small paths. Now that this path is too small, if the car turns around, it needs to be moved several times before it can be turned.

"Brother An, what should we do?" Cheng Fuhua asked.

Tom poked his head out and saw that the patrolling security personnel who were maintaining order at the intersection noticed the situation here and were looking around. He said, "Get out now. The people behind you will definitely make a fuss if you turn around now. If it catches the attention of the patrolmen, it won't be good. Xiao Gao, cover the crystal and pile up the miscellaneous items."

Although the shelter has established a security maintenance agency, it is not a government department. In order to avoid suspicion, the names of patrol security officers try to avoid words such as police. But everyone is still used to calling the people who maintain patrol security patrol officers and the security personnel of the internal security department criminal police or police officers.

Although Ouyang Haotian is a member of the temporary search team and has not been promoted to the security department, he often works for the security department's security department due to his extensive communication and flexible mind, and is also considered a half patrol officer. Of course, before the miniaturization disaster, he should be called an auxiliary police officer.

Upon hearing Tom's command, Gaudi Sheng's voice trembled slightly as he responded with "Hello, Ango!" It seemed that he was quite nervous.

Liu Lian had considered the issue of encountering people, so he asked Cheng Fuhua to install some wires, boxes, etc. in the car as a disguise, so that when someone looked inside the car, it was easy to cover it up.

So Cheng Fuhua stepped on the accelerator and slowly drove the electric van towards the intersection. He didn't dare to be too fast or too slow, otherwise it would easily attract the attention of others. These level 5 crystals are too large in volume, even if there is something to cover them up, it is easy for people to notice.

The float was not moving fast, and the passersby cheered excitedly amidst the festive music. So Cheng Fuhua's car eventually reached the intersection and was stopped by the patrol officer.

"The logistics department's car? Is there still work after that late?" the patrol officer asked.

Cheng Fuhua leaned out of the car window and answered with a smile, "Asir, I'm bringing my friends to watch the excitement with the Flower Racing Team."

"How many people?"

"Three of them."

"Let me take a look," the patrol officer said, poking his head into the car window to look around, but Cheng Fuhua was quite frightened. And Gaudi Sheng sat in the carriage with one hand behind him, tightly gripping the black cloth covering the crystal, with an unnatural smile on his face.

"What did you pull?"

"It's nothing more..." Cheng Fuhua's heart was about to jump out. Fortunately, the car behind him became impatient and beeped twice. The patrol officer waved his hand to signal them to leave quickly in order to avoid traffic congestion.

"Huh... it scared me to death." Cheng Fuhua wiped his forehead and stepped on the accelerator to accelerate through the intersection.

The avenue is quite wide, and the large floats only occupy a quarter of the width. Cheng Fuhua's car can easily pass by.

Behind the float, several cars followed, one of which got off and a person stopped Cheng Fuhua and others on their way.

"No, it's Liu Shanmin." Cheng Fuhua recognized the person.

This guy is a subordinate of Zhang Chengjiang, who runs the black market. Last time, he had a conflict with Tom and others because of Zhao Yingying.

"Old Cheng, what do you mean by your special horse sneaking out in the middle of the night to block traffic? You're still driving a car from the logistics department."

Cheng Fuhua muttered softly, "It's none of your business." But he still poked his head out and answered loudly, "We're just passing by."

"If you don't look at the float, are you running around? If there's a problem, let me see what you've installed. It shouldn't be something stolen from the logistics department. Hurry up and run." Liu Shanmin strode towards the back of the car.

"Ange, what should we do?" Gao Disheng asked in a low voice.
