The helicopter's engines slowly descended, then the doors opened, and a man in a bulletproof vest jumped out and ran quickly toward the back of the helicopter.

With a series of mechanical grinding sounds, the rear cabin of the helicopter was slowly opened.

Then several fully armed soldiers slowly pushed a handcart out from inside.

The group carefully pushed the cart, which carried a two-meter-long box wrapped in layers of protective gear.

"Slow down! Be gentle! You mustn't bump into anything!"

Finally, after a large box was loaded onto a vehicle, the helicopter pilot nodded to the lab director: "The supplies have been delivered! Let's head back! Let us know when you're done using them!"

The lab director nodded quickly, saying gratefully, "Thank you! Please thank Master Long for me!"

The other party waved his hand: "I can't see Master Long! You should go and say this yourselves! But Master Long has something he asked me to pass on to you!"

"Oh, what did Master Long say?"

"You'd better watch yourselves! I've already repaid the favor I owed you!"

Then, the other party waved to the team members behind him, and everyone returned to the plane.

The black armed helicopter flew directly away from the nuclear power plant.

When the large box was transported to the underground research lab of the nuclear power plant, Wang Qin's face showed excitement.

"Haha! With this, won't we be able to unlock the secret of that mysterious stone?"

The lab director didn't know what to say: "Um... I think it should be fine! By the way, send a message from Master Long!"

"Hmm, what did you say?"

He said... "He advised us to behave ourselves, and that we've already repaid the favor we owed!"

A cold smile flashed across Wang Qin's face: "That bald guy dares to talk to me like that! I saved him from a difficult situation back then! Now that he's in middle management, he really thinks he's someone important! Ignore him! The stuff has been handed over to you! Hurry up and get it done!"

The other party nodded, and then began to arrange for people to extract the Earth's core crystal.

Because the energy contained in the Earth's core crystal is extremely violent, all protective measures were taken before the Earth's core crystal arrived to ensure the safety of the laboratory. In addition, in order to prevent the Earth's core crystal from causing an explosion during the reaction, this place has been sealed off. In the event of an explosion, this place will be sealed off immediately.

As the layers of packaging were removed, the dimensional crystal placed on another experimental table suddenly began to shimmer with a bright light, as if catalyzed by something. If Lu Yuan were here at this moment, he would definitely exclaim in surprise, because this reaction meant that the upgrade of the dimensional crystal was about to begin again.

The dimensional space, which has been upgraded three times, has been more than a year since the last upgrade. During this time, although the dimensional crystals occasionally emit light, they are all for land expansion. Lu Yuan basically looks for them when he has time and ignores them when he doesn't.

However, when faced with an upgrade, they would drop everything to search for it. Now, they never expected that what they called the Earth Core Crystal would actually be an upgrade item for the Dimensional Crystal. It's just that this crystal core is a bit big, and its shape is similar to that of the Dimensional Crystal. Its surface emits colorful light.

"Phew! This thing was obtained from the Earth's core. Each one takes millions of years to form. This thing is really too precious! We must make good use of it!"

Looking at the unpacked Earth Core Crystal, the lab director's face twitched slightly. This thing's power was ridiculously strong. The catalyst minerals that had appeared all over the world before were caused by the fluctuations in the Earth's core caused by this crystal, which altered many rocks. Later, in order to study this thing, various countries discovered the existence of this crystal in the ground tens of thousands of meters deep.

However, after these crystal nuclei were removed, the catalyst minerals on the Earth's surface began to slowly disappear. Before people could even react, all the catalyst minerals were gone. At the time, no one knew what was going on because very few people knew about this. Later, in order to prevent the Earth's core from being damaged again, countries signed an agreement to prohibit the continued extraction of these crystal nuclei from the Earth's core.

Therefore, the crystal nuclei collected worldwide are currently kept in high-level environments and are not typically released. However, research on these crystal nuclei is ongoing. As for their exact function, there is no definitive answer yet. It is only known that these crystal nuclei can generate a large number of catalysts without limitation, allowing various organisms to reproduce in large quantities.

Once all the layers encasing the crystal core were removed, the dimensional crystal on the distant experimental table emitted a dazzling light, just like the sun.

"Phew! It seems to really work! This stuff looks similar to the material inside the Earth's core! It reacted so quickly!"

The director, standing in the laboratory observation room, trembled slightly. If the secret of this dimensional crystal were truly cracked, would even more mysterious secrets be discovered? No one knew. Wang Qin, through his connections, had learned that the food Lu Yuan and his family had been eating recently was inconsistent. Although they frequently bought meat and even ran a farm, this only fooled those who were unaware. However, observant people would still discover some secrets.
