The Greatest Village Doctor In The World-Chapter 2045 - 2044: Return
Just as Zhang He was extremely tense, his fists clenched tightly, Ling Feng finally moved.
When he reached out to lift the lid of that box, a sharp-eyed staff member exclaimed, "Oh no, Mr. Ling’s protective suit is torn!"
As soon he said this, everyone saw it too; a puff of white vapor sprouted from Ling Feng’s shoulder!
Under the underground high temperature and high pressure, that protective suit ultimately couldn’t withstand.
Everyone was anxious upon seeing this scene, yet they were helpless, without any ideas!
So everyone’s gaze focused on Zhang He’s face.
"Why are you all staring at me!"
Zhang He suddenly got angry, and shouted, "I can’t do anything right now; all I can do is pray he’s okay!"
Honestly, he was indeed very nervous; after all, it was his brother, he didn’t want Ling Feng to be harmed by this incident!
If anything happened, Zhang He thought to himself, I would feel guilty toward many people!
Nervously watching the screen, he was indeed quietly praying in his heart, chanting all sorts of deities like Amitabha Buddha, Holy Mary, and Allah!
Ling Feng actually knew his protective suit had issues.
He noticed it when it started to crack.
But being bold with his high skills, he didn’t care at all about the damaged suit, with his attention all on that stone box.
Earlier, when circling the box, Ling Feng wasn’t wasting time; he was seriously observing and found that the patterns on it weren’t just decoration but meaningful.
When he figured out the way to open it, he pressed the protrusion on the pattern.
"Hiss!"
A muffled sound rang out as the lid of the stone box slowly rose, a stream of air instantly rushed in.
Ling Feng didn’t exert any force; the box lid was completely supported by some kind of mechanism, opening slowly.
"People say time can erase any trace, but unexpectedly, a box from millions of years ago can still open automatically like this, truly amazing!"
As Ling Feng thought to himself, his Divine Sense had already probed into the box.
As expected, there was indeed a corpse inside.
Seeing the corpse’s appearance clearly, Ling Feng’s eyebrows furrowed!
Because although he saw limbs and a head similar to humans, it was clear this wasn’t a human!
The figure reached three meters, the head was shriveled but still much larger than an average human’s head.
This corpse was entirely pitch-black, already turned into a desiccated corpse.
As the lid fully opened, Ling Feng could clearly see the corpse with his naked eye.
After pondering for a moment, Ling Feng reached out, touched the gigantic box, and had a sudden impulse!
Then, the box disappeared into thin air, leaving only four huge chains.
At the same time, scorching heat came, and the immense pressure made Ling Feng’s breath catch!
The protective suit on his body was completely destroyed, losing its protective layer.
Ling Feng sensed it; although the sweltering heat and pressure were uncomfortable, they weren’t intolerable, so he simply took off the protective suit!
Thus, in the command room, a group of people witnessed an embarrassing scene!
Ling Feng stripped off all his clothes!
Many female staff members blushed on the spot.
But only a few were too shy to keep staring and secretly turned their heads; the rest of the women watched Ling Feng, faces still flushed.
At this moment, his figure already crossed the massive chains to the other side. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
That area was where Zhang He’s project team had not yet set foot, and in the blink of an eye, Ling Feng’s figure was no longer visible, so everyone turned back to look at him!
"Everyone, get to your tasks, Ling Feng’s thick-skinned, it seems he’s fine!"
Zhang He exhaled and said to everyone.
Everyone felt the same way; Ling Feng was so deep underground and yet appeared unaffected, it seemed this project should have brought him in long ago!
Some even felt that since Ling Feng arrived today, the mysterious relics buried deep underground from millions of years ago might finally be unearthed completely!
...
...
As time passed second by second, although confident that Ling Feng could complete the task smoothly, Zhang He couldn’t help but become anxious.
By now, the energy in that underground space had faded, and all equipment was under maintenance and restoration; yet because Ling Feng took off the protective suit, wireless communication equipment still couldn’t reach him.
Thus Zhang He was anxious, feeling like his heart was in a frying pan.
It’s been four hours since Ling Feng crossed the chains to reach the opposite space.
Zhang He couldn’t sit still any longer, stood up, and said, "Immediately bring the elevator up at full speed, let’s go down and see what’s going on!"
"Yes!"
Everyone was just as worried, not wanting anything to happen to Ling Feng underground, so upon hearing the order, someone quickly ran to the control room.
Just as the elevator started, someone saw a blurry figure on the screen and shouted loudly, "It’s him, it’s Mr. Ling!"
Upon hearing the shout, everyone turned their heads.
As the image switched to the huge screen, people indeed saw Ling Feng.
At this moment, his skin was red all over, as if he was on fire!
His hair was gone too, leaving him bald.
Seeing Ling Feng stark naked yet walking as if there was nothing amiss, Zhang He finally let out a sigh of relief, "You brat, nearly scared me to death!"
Watching Ling Feng cross the chains and return to the other side, the people in the command room cheered loudly!
Zhang He also smiled, thinking to himself, this meal is inevitable, he must properly treat Ling Feng and wondered if he’d make unreasonable demands!
But on second thought, he silently mused, even if Ling Feng wanted to eat dragon liver and phoenix gall, he’d offer them at the cost of everything, because of the credit Ling Feng earned!
Thinking of this, Zhang He smiled silently.
Ling Feng entered the elevator, pressed the ascend button, and then sat cross-legged, entering a meditative state.
Even though Zhang He tried talking to him through the elevator communication system, Ling Feng didn’t respond.
The elevator couldn’t ascend too quickly either, so after waiting nearly three hours, many people had run to the elevator entrance, preparing to welcome Ling Feng.
But a kilometer from the exit, Ling Feng suddenly opened his eyes: "Everyone, don’t crowd the door; I’m carrying radiation; please clear away and arrange for someone to clean my body!"
"Quick, everyone back off!"
Zhang He shouted loudly upon hearing this, then immediately called out, "Chemical defense team, prepare!"
"Yes!"
Personnel responsible for preventing radiation pollution immediately responded loudly.
A few minutes later, Ling Feng returned to the surface, and as soon as the elevator doors opened, people in protective suits rushed forward.
Ling Feng raised his hands and stayed still, letting everyone apply cleansing agents on him.
Half an hour later, his skin returned to its original color, and Ling Feng, wrapped in a blanket, arrived at the command room.
