Chapter 705 A Scientific Look at Magical Creations


The old man nodded, agreeing with his nephew’s judgment.


The circle of rocks didn’t look quite right at first glance, and it was strange that the young man’s tracks disappeared here.


It can’t be… a special secret base, can it.


The old man’s curiosity was increasing.


Some idlers were like this. When they saw something strange, something they didn’t quite understand, they would try to figure out what was going on.


Otherwise, it would feel uncomfortable like an itch they couldn’t scratch.


The middle-aged man first installed the hidden camera, and then picked up a stone on the ground, hitting the rock wall hard. After hitting it for a while, many fragments broke off of the stone in his hands, and there wasn’t even a scratch on the rock ma.s.s.


“It’s so hard.” Finally, the middle-aged man pulled out his phone and took a picture of the rock ma.s.s. “I know a friend who studies geology, I’ll have him see what it is.”


The old man agreed and said, “It’s getting interesting. That kid must be keeping a secret.”


“I think so too.” The middle-aged man scratched his head. “And the potted plants… Uncle, you said he brought a lot of potted plants over, but I didn’t see any of them.”


“Could it be behind this stone door?” The old man pointed to the front of himself.


The middle-aged man’s eyes glowed. “That kid dug a cave out here, and then brought a lot of potted plants in-is it used to convert oxygen? Then where would the light come from? Converted from electricity? And where does electricity come from?”


Some people had a wild imagination… and it just happened to be quite reasonable.


The old man shook his head. “Not sure, maybe there’s another use for it. Now that the cameras are installed, let’s go.”


“Okay.” The middle-aged man held out his phone. “I’ll send the picture to a friend and let you know when I hear something, Uncle.”


“Sorry to trouble you.”


“That’s fine, I was rather curious anyway.”


The two left the area.


For the next few days, Roland was either getting intimate with Andonara or learning etiquette in the game.


And in reality, after buying the flat, he hired someone to decorate it and purchase furniture.


Since the place was intended to be used as a teleportation point, the decoration and furniture were only used to spruce up the place.


It was as simple as possible and only cost him about ten thousand yuan. The simple renovation didn’t take much time, but even so, it took Roland nearly twenty days.


At this point, the older man and his nephew, once again, came to the rock formation. There was an additional fellow with them.


He was a svelte, thin, middle-aged man wearing gla.s.ses.


This man was a friend of the fat middle-aged man, a geology expert.


“Geology isn’t for studying rocks. Studying rocks is just a skill we have. The pictures you showed me don’t look like anything valuable,” the middle-aged man with gla.s.ses explained seriously. “Like the mountains here in our little town, there’s nothing left to study. Old Tai, let me tell you, it’s not for you ordinary people to say whether a stone circle is weird or not because you haven’t seen many weird rocks in geology, most of them are… What the h.e.l.l is this.”


At this time, the middle-aged man with gla.s.ses also finally noticed that something was wrong.


The stone circle in front of him was too strange.


He went up and touched it: “Well… it’s smooth, not like it’s been weathered, but like a synthetic rock slab.”


The old man asked next to him, “What is a synthetic rock slab, and what is it for?”


“A building material, for the most part, brought to the local brick pavers.” The man in gla.s.ses kept touching the rock ma.s.s in front of him. “I just haven’t seen such a strange synthetic slab of stone.”


The middle-aged man had retrieved his camera, and he asked, “It looks synthetic to me too. What’s the difference between a normal synthetic rock slab and this?”


“The materials are relatively fixed. Synthetic rock slabs are made with only a few varieties of materials; I can tell just by touching them.” The man with gla.s.ses said with an odd expression, “But this is completely different. I need to take some back and study it.”


“Can’t chisel it, it’s hard.” The fat middle-aged man put his camera away and said, “Why don’t you bring a perforating machine next time.”


“That works!” The man with gla.s.ses touched the rock circle, and some light rose in his eyes.


The old man laughed. “If you figure something out in your research, tell us, okay? Little Tao.”


Continuing to touch the rock body, the man with gla.s.ses gasped. He was curious but didn’t care too much about it. He just wanted to know what material it was made of to synthesize it.


The three men left the mountain.


By the next day, the man with gla.s.ses took two students with a perforating machine, dug out a piece of rock as big as a fingernail, and then drove for three hours to the geological inst.i.tute in the provincial capital.


He went to an acquaintance and had the slab that was as big as a fingernail sent directly to the examination room.


Then he sat and chatted with his old friend.


“Haitao, I heard that you’re doing geological research on ancient tombs of the Ming Dynasty in a small town in the south. Did you get this stuff from an ancient tomb?” the old friend, who was already bald, asked with a smile.


“No, it’s a very strange rock ma.s.s found on the mountain,” said the svelte man with gla.s.ses. His real name was Zhao Haitao. “We took two portable perforators up there at the time, the kind made in Germany, and it was only logical that the needles should be hard enough, but the needles of both perforators were brokenone snapped and one went crooked-before they dug out this bit of rock fragment.”


Those who could work in the geological inst.i.tute had a level of achievement, and the bald middle-aged froze when he heard this. “That hard? It’s not a special synthetic rock slab, right?”


Zhao Haitao shrugged. “Who knows! Let’s see the test results.”


The two then chatted for quite a while, and about two hours later, the results came in.


A certain researcher, with an odd look on his face, handed the two men data sheets, one for each of them.


After reading it, the two men were stunned.


Touching the top of his smooth head, the middle-aged man of the inst.i.tute was completely baffled. “Could it be a mistake! This is all a very common clay composition. How can it be compressed into a stone slab? And what’s more outrageous is that this hardness is almost on the level of diamond; impact strength and fracture toughness are also high, and all together, this is close to the special tungsten-chromium alloy, right.” “The two German-made perforating machine needles are made of tungsten-chromium steel. If the data is combined, it is even harder than tungsten-chromium steel.” Zhao Haitao took a deep breath. “No, Old Huang, immediately dispatch a few people to go with me and get that rock back. This thing may change our understanding of materials.” “I understand. I’ll go with you.”


Two small cars, a bus, and a truck then headed directly for the small city where Roland lived.


It was supposed to be a three-hour drive, but they managed to rush there in two hours.


Then a bunch of people jumped off the bus and truck with tools and went up the mountain in great numbers. Under the leaders.h.i.+p of Zhao Haitao, they found the rock body and dug out the two-meter-diameter, two-meter-long cylindrical rock.


It was only two meters long because Roland used this to seal the door, and the long pa.s.sage at the back was all turned back into normal mud.


Several researchers with detectors also probed the mountain for a while and found nothing special. There were no metals detected, just what seemed to be a small hollow.


On the southern border, there were many underground caverns, and they were a hundred meters deep underground and had no impact on the environment, so no one paid attention to them.


Nearly thirty people surrounded this cylindrical rock body dug out from the mountain and struck it, every one of them amazed.


These geologists had seen many things.


But it was the first time they saw such a strange rock ma.s.s that was harder than special steels. “This stuff is definitely synthetic.”


Zhao Haitao circled this stone pillar a few times and concluded, “It is difficult to form something so perfectly shaped and so strange. I just don’t know if it was made by the ancients or by modern people.”


“Test it.” The bald Old Huang patted the stone pillar. “Such a big piece, it’s at least eight tons. Fortunately, we got a truck. Otherwise, it really couldn’t be transported back.”


“Now I’m wondering how we can get it down the mountain without tools.” “This thing is round-push it down the mountain?” someone joked.


“Do you want to get people killed?” Zhao Haitao said angrily. “This thing weighs nearly eight tons, and rolling it down, the potential energy converted to kinetic energy, with the ruggedness of the mountain, the speed can definitely break more than more than twenty meters per second. Not to mention touching people, they’ll shatter on the spot-even a building would be penetrated.”


The person who spoke smiled embarra.s.sedly and said, “I was just kidding.”


“You can’t just joke around when you’re doing research,” Zhao Haitao grumbled. The other party wasn’t his student or his subordinate, so he couldn’t say much. “Go ask the professional excavator to come over, get the stuff down the mountain, and then transport it back to the geology bureau and test it slowly.” At nearly nine o’clock in the evening, the cylindrical stone was finally brought back into the geology bureau.


Then a large group of researchers carried out various tests on it.


More astonis.h.i.+ng data was laid out in front of them.


“This thing is simply a miracle.” Zhao Haitao covered his head. “Its composition is the soil and minerals that are very common in our area. The composition is so varied that no matter how you look at it, it should just be a clump of dirt, but it is bonded into a rock. There seems to be a force that made it look like this.”


Bald Old Huang brought two cups of coffee and placed one in front of Zhao Haitao. “Drink first, I guess we’ll be up all night today.”


“Has it been reported?”


“It’s been reported… Our boss (meaning the leader) called the higher-ups and explained the data. The people above were baffled and questioned whether we took the data of special steel by mistake.” Speaking of this, Old Huang laughed. “After the boss repeatedly a.s.sured that this is true, they said they’d immediately fly here overnight. I reckon they’ll arrive in the hours of the early morning.” “Anyone who looks at this data will be baffled.” Zhao Haitao took off his gla.s.ses and took a sip of coffee. “I was originally just curious, but I didn’t think that I would actually catch a big fish.”


“How did you find this thing?” Old Huang was a little envious, regardless of whether the research afterward would have anything to do with Zhao Haitao or not.


“An acquaintance said there was strange stuff for me to look at…”


Zhao Haitao suddenly remembered something and took this opportunity to call his friend. “Old Tai, are you asleep? Didn’t you tell me before that there was a young man who acted oddly, do you remember what that young man looked like?”


“I haven’t seen him, just my Uncle, and he was just curious, afraid that young man was doing something bad over there.”


Zhao Haitao continued, “I remember that you set up a hidden camera. Didn’t you get a picture?”


“No, it seems he hasn’t been to the mountains since I talked to Uncle that day.”


“Really, so you can’t find him?”


“I remember Uncle saying that the young man seems to have bought a penthouse in one of the neighborhoods near the park. When the time comes, you can ask Uncle to take you to look for him and maybe you’ll run into him.”


“Okay, thanks.”


After hanging up the phone, Zhao Haitao was a bit puzzled. “I wonder if that young man has anything to do with this rock.”


But he soon put it behind him and continued to study the rock.


Researchers had an inexplicable mania for such discoveries.


It always felt uncomfortable when they couldn’t figure out what was going on.


For that reason they were willing to eat less and sleep less, just making sure that they had enough calories for thinking and that they wouldn’t die.


But Zhao Haitao didn’t study the rock for long before it was secretly sent to the general bureau of geology in the capital.


Without something to study, Zhao Haitao felt lost, and then he found his friend Tai Moumou who connected him to the nosy, curious old


man.


The two then spent three days staking out the neighborhood and finally saw Roland.


At this time, Roland was carrying some food towards his new house, and then in front of the entrance to the building, he was blocked by the two men.


As soon as Roland saw the old man, he started frowning, thinking how annoying it was that this man was chasing after him when he wasn’t even going to the mountains anymore.


Looking at Roland’s annoyed look, the old man smiled and said, “Young man, it’s not me who is looking for you. It’s this professor who is looking for you.”


Zhao Haitao did have the t.i.tle of professor.


As the old man spoke, Zhao Haitao was a little surprised as he surveyed Roland.


He had taught several cla.s.ses of graduate students and knew a thing or two about young people. He had a feeling that this young man in front of him seemed to have a very unique aura that fascinated him, yet he didn’t dare to get too close.


Roland turned his eyes to Zhao Haitao, his face full of suspicion.


“Sorry, let me introduce myself. I am Zhao Haitao from the geology bureau of this city, and I heard from old Mr. Tai earlier that you seem to have something to do with a strange


rock?”


“What rocks?” asked Roland, full of confusion.


His mental power was now so strong that it was easy to control his emotions.


“This.” Zhao Haitao took out his phone, opened the picture, and handed it over. “Oh, this thing.” Roland nodded. “I’ve seen it several times when I was playing in the mountains. Isn’t it the decorations made by those workers who were contracted for the construction of the park?”


Zhao Haitao kept his eyes on Roland’s, and when he saw that the latter spoke with an even tone and a solid and direct gaze, he felt that Roland was probably telling the truth.


“Sorry to bother you.” Zhao Haitao put away his phone.


He then turned to leave. The old man felt a little unconvinced but followed.


Roland turned around and went into the building


On the way back, Zhao Haitao received a call from Old Huang: “Haitao, something big has happened. The testing from above has come up with the result that the strength of that rock ma.s.s can replace deck plating!”


“What!” Zhao Haitao, who was driving, hit the brakes abruptly, then immediately pulled over to the side of the road and shouted into the phone, “There is no mistake, right.”


“No mistake. Orders have been given from above to search that mountain with all our efforts to see if we can find a second rock ma.s.s like that.”
