Chapter 156 Trading (please subscribe!)
In the conference room in the camp, Professor Zhang and Dr. Wang were discussing something around a notebook.

Lin An was sitting in his seat, playing with a light golden metal box in his hand.

This box belongs to Deng Weiming.

Lin An glanced at the time: "It's been almost an hour, and it hasn't been translated yet?"

There was doubt in Lin An's eyes. Professor Zhang and Dr. Wang were both experts in the study of Mora script. Logically speaking, translating a few lines of Mora script should be easy, but this time it took them more than an hour. The time has not yet come to fruition.

Upon hearing Lin An's question, both of them raised their heads and looked at Lin An.

"Mr. Lin, it's not that we don't want to translate, but these lines are too complicated. They seem to be an address, so we have made no progress. After all, the Mora Empire has been too long ago, and many places are correct. Quite a few, even if the names match, they will be different, so it will take us a while to translate them!" Dr. Wang said with a wry smile, his face full of helplessness.

Lin An frowned. He felt that the address on the paper was probably where the Four Saints' secret weapons were stored. However, Professor Zhang and Dr. Wang had not yet translated it, and it seemed that it would take some time, so he All we can do is wait.

Therefore, Lin An could only focus on the box in his hand.

Lin An was also very concerned about this box. According to Deng Weiming, this box was found in the stone platform and should be the most valuable thing in the ruins.

Moreover, when Lin An touched the box, he also absorbed energy points from it. Although there were not many energy points, they were still energy points.

Lin An squeezed the metal box tightly with his fingers, but the box did not change at all.

Lin An frowned and increased his strength again, but the metal box still showed no response.

It wasn't until he fully mobilized the power in his body that the metal box trembled slightly, but that was all.

Immediately, Lin An tried various methods, and even used mental power to detect the metal box, but no matter what he did, the metal box had no reaction.

This made Lin An a little angry, and he was even more convinced that this metal box was definitely a treasure.

But he couldn't open the box at all.

Lin An sighed: "You guys go ahead, I'll go out for a walk."

After saying that, Lin An walked out of the room.

Lin An walked in the open space of the camp and took out the box and looked at it carefully.

He always felt that this box was not as simple as it seemed on the surface, and its special material could not only withstand Lin An's power, but also isolate it from the detection of mental power.

After working hard to no avail, Lin An could only put the box away.

...............

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, three days passed. During these three days, Lin An would spend some time studying the box every day, constantly looking for ways to open the box, but he still found nothing.

Professor Zhang and Dr. Wang have been translating several rows of Mora texts brought by Deng Weiming during the past three days, trying to translate something from them, but unfortunately they have been unsuccessful.

Because they had no map of the Mora Empire at that time, they had no way of knowing the locations recorded in the Mora texts.

In the past few days, Professor Zhang has also contacted some of his friends, hoping to get the map of the Mora Empire from them, but disappointingly, no one has such information.

This made Professor Zhang very anxious, but there was nothing he could do.

Lin An had an idea, but he didn't make up his mind whether to do it or not.

However, after hesitating for a long time, Lin An still made a decision. If he didn't do this, the address would be useless in his hands. Only by translating it could it be put to use.

"Sir, do you really want to do this?" In the room, Zhengzhou was a little worried. After all, the other party is the Special Affairs Bureau, an official extraordinary organization of a country. Cooperating with the Special Affairs Bureau is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger.

"This is the only choice, and as long as I am strong, the Special Affairs Bureau cannot move me even if it wants to. Besides, we are just cooperating, so don't worry too much." Lin An said.

After saying that, Lin An's eyes narrowed. He still had one sentence left to say: "Besides, I don't have any countermeasures."

He has plenty of energy points in his hand. As long as he is provoked, he will at most increase his energy points and raise his strength to the late martial arts level. He would like to see if the special affairs department dares to play any tricks at that time.

Zhengzhou was silent for a moment and then said: "Since you have made a decision, I will not advise you anything. I hope everything goes well."

Not long after, Zhengzhou's cell phone vibrated in his pocket.

"Sir, the people from the Special Affairs Bureau are here." Zheng Li immediately said to Lin An.

"Well, you can bring them here." Lin An said to Zhengzhou.

"Yes." Zhengzhou responded and walked outside.

Not long after, Zhengzhou led two people into the room, closed the door, and stood in the corner waiting for Lin An's instructions.

The visitors from the Special Affairs Bureau were the same as last time, Xu Fuzhou and Huang Lin.

After seeing these two people coming in, Lin An waved to them: "Sit down!"

The two nodded and casually found a place to sit down. Only Zhengzhou was still standing there like a wooden stake. "You two must be curious about why I want to find you, right?" Lin An looked at the two of them and asked slowly.

"I am indeed a little curious. I wonder why you asked us to come here?" Xu Fuzhou asked.

Lin An continued: "I want to ask you for a favor. I wonder if you have a map of the Mora Empire in your hands?"

"This..." After hearing this, the two people's expressions suddenly became hesitant.

Xu Fuzhou frowned slightly: "Why are you interested in the map of the Mora Empire?"

Lin An smiled lightly and said: "I have no comment on this matter. Anyway, do you have any?"

Hearing this, Xu Fuzhou pondered for a moment and replied: "Although we have it, it is a incomplete map. I don't know if it can meet your needs."

"It doesn't matter, something is better than nothing. You can set a price!" Lin An said.

"This matter is of great importance. I can't make a decision. I need to discuss it with the director before making a decision." Xu Fuzhou said.

Lin An didn't mind. After all, this matter was really not something he could decide, so he waved his hand: "Okay, you go ahead and make a call. I'll wait for your news."

Xu Fuzhou nodded and then left the room.

A few minutes later, Xu Fuzhou returned to the room.

He said to Lin An: "Mr. Lin, the director has agreed to hand over the map of the Mora Empire to you. But he wants us to know the purpose of your obtaining the map."

Lin An pondered for a while, then finally nodded and said, "I'm looking for a place. As for why I'm looking for that place and what's there, I can't tell you."

After listening to Lin An's words, Xu Fuzhou did not get to the bottom of it, but continued: "In addition, we also hope to excavate the ruins with you!"

"Relics?" After hearing this, Lin An's face moved slightly, his eyes flashing with inexplicable brilliance. He did not expect that the people from the Special Affairs Bureau were still staring at the ruins. It seemed that they had got some news.

"Sorry, the ruins have been excavated. There is no need to continue digging." Lin An said apologetically.

Xu Fuzhou was slightly surprised: "Has it been excavated? What a pity!"

"But now that you have finished digging, can you give us the ruins?" Xu Fuzhou asked again.

"Okay, but I hope to get the map as soon as possible." Lin An nodded and said.

"Okay, no problem! Just wait a moment and I'll have someone send you the map right away." Xu Fuzhou replied immediately.

Then he took out his cell phone from his pocket and dialed a series of numbers, chatting briefly before hanging up.

Immediately, he looked up at Lin An and said, "Mr. Lin, the map has been sent to your mobile phone."

When Lin An heard this, he immediately took out his mobile phone and checked his inbox, and sure enough he saw a message prompt.

He clicked on it and found a incomplete map inside. Although some areas were blurry, most of the areas were still clear.

After reading it, he nodded, put his phone in his pocket, and said, "Okay, you can leave. You will start sending people into the ruins in three days."

Hearing this, Xu Fuzhou and both of them breathed a sigh of relief, then bowed respectfully to thank them, turned and left.

After Xu Fuzhou and Huang Lin left, Lin An sent the map directly to Professor Zhang and asked them to translate according to the map.

After Xu Fuzhou and the two returned to the hotel, they went to the fourth floor again and met the old man.

"Deputy Director, why did you agree to this deal? It's not a good deal to exchange a map for an excavated ruins." After Xu Fuzhou came to the office, he drank tea and closed his eyes while sitting on the sofa. The restful old man asked.

"Haha! Who said that the ruins have been excavated?" The old man opened his eyes and chuckled.

"Well, Lin An said this personally. Is he lying to us?" Xu Fuzhou asked doubtfully.

"Haha, he didn't lie to you, it's just that he has our people in his archaeological team. Although they are strictly monitored and cannot deliver news or items, they can still hide some things in the ruins without being discovered. ." The old man shook his head and said: "We are not going to dig for ruins, but to find hidden things."

Xu Fuzhou's eyes flashed with strange color, but on the surface he pretended to be suddenly enlightened: "So that's it."

"But before that, we need to do one more thing." The old man said with profound meaning.

"What's going on?" Xu Fuzhou looked confused.

"Deal with the traitor!" Huang Lin on the side suddenly said.
