Chapter 1147: Radiation Levels Are Off the Charts

Zhang Heng had the three women wait by the side of the road. He sneaked into the side room while the workers gathered to discuss what to do next.

This was where the construction workers usually took their lunch breaks. Currently, there were only three people in the room. One was the chef and his assistant, and the other was sleeping soundly on the table. Zhang Heng lowered his body and under the cover of the dining table, quietly slipped into the room to take a few sets of work clothes from the wire bed. He changed into a set first. During this time, he even heard complaints from the chef. Then, he heard footsteps approaching the room.

Zhang Heng quickly looked around and finally rolled under a wire bed by the door.

Through the gap between the bed’s board and the floor, he saw a pair of boots walk in from outside the door. Judging from the style of the boots, it should be the assistant. He came in and mumbled something before walking out again. Just as he left, Zhang Heng rolled out from under the bed.

During the whole process, he had perfectly controlled the strength of his body. With the help of Kries’s Heart, and even though the distance between the two was less than half a meter, the worker didn’t realize that there was someone behind him. Zhang Heng even glanced at the thing in his hand. It was a box of mints.

The chef took it from the worker and opened the box as he continued to complain. He grabbed a handful of mints and threw them into his mouth to soothe his throat.

Five minutes later, Zhang Heng returned to the three women with his work clothes. Master Kui raised his eyebrows. “I now believe that you’re really the number one Simon on the leaderboard.”

On the other side, Besnova had witnessed how Zhang Heng had managed to sneak into the building under the watchful eyes of a group of workers. He then came out with his clothes in his arms. The workers looked as if they had gone blind, completely unaware of his existence. Besnova had no idea how Zhang Heng managed to do it. When she recalled how he had read her mind, she began to believe that Zhang Heng must be the devil himself.

However, Zhang Heng did not seem to feel anything. It was as if he had done something insignificant. He told the three of them, “Change your clothes. We’re going to meet Fu Ming and Bulihanov.”

After going through the Roman dungeon, Zhang Heng’s assassin skill had reached Lv.3. This level of stealth was no longer a problem for him.

In reality, if they had still been wearing their white clothes when they first entered the dungeon, it would have been easier to disguise themselves as workers from the nuclear power plant. However, considering the radiation suffered last night, the players had already thrown those clothes away. Now, they could only settle for the second-best and change into the construction worker’s clothes.

After the three women changed, Zhang Heng and the others passed through reactor No.5 that was still under construction. They climbed over the guardrail by the roadside and entered the nuclear power plant.

“Where is the No.1 Administrative Building?” Master Kui frowned.

“Find someone and ask. Just say that we’re the worker representatives and we’re here to ask if the construction of reactor No.5 is still going on,” Zhang Heng said to Coconut.

The latter nodded and communicated with Besnova through Whispers. However, before the group could find anyone, they saw a figure walking toward them from afar. A tall and strong man, the muscles on his body and the movements of his hands and feet showed he once served in the military.

He opened his mouth from a long distance and said with a serious expression, “You shouldn’t be here. Leave now!”

“Sir, we are the construction workers of reactor number five. We are here to see plant manager Bulihanov to ask if our work is still going on as usual.”

“Since when did reactor number five have female workers?” the person frowned.

“Uhh… actually, we are the management staff of the construction site,” Besnova appeared a little flustered and stuttered.

Fortunately, the person who came did not dwell on this point. He just waved his hand to chase the four away. “I don’t care where you come from, just leave this place as soon as possible. The further the better.”

He waved the equipment in his hand and said with a straight face, “I am S.S. Vorobyov, the director of the Civil Defense Department of the Nuclear Power Plant. I have just measured the radiation value of the nuclear power plant. The radiation here is very strong. In many places, it has exceeded 250 roentgen.”

“250 roentgen?” Besnova was surprised. “Didn’t you say that the measuring limit of the instrument is only 3.6 roentgen?”

“That’s a normal measuring instrument.” Vorobyov looked very angry. “They still have a measuring instrument with a range of 1,000 roentgen, but it’s buried under the ruins. The one in my hand is from the Civil Defense Department, and it has a measuring range of 250 roentgen.”

“That’s great. Did you tell the others about this result?”

“I reported it to Bulihanov, but he said that my instrument had a malfunction, so it’s impossible for it to have such a high radiation value. He also asked me to throw the equipment into the garbage.” Vorobyov shook his head, “He and Fomin have both lost their minds. The situation here is very critical. You should leave immediately.”

“But we haven’t received the order. The workers are still waiting at the construction site,” Besnova pretended to insist.

“Then get them to go home together. The current radiation level is not suitable for outdoor work. I’m planning to go to the DW’s office. I have to warn the others.” Vorobyov displayed the inherent integrity of a soldier.

“But this job is very important to us. I still hope to meet with factory director Bulihanov before I leave,” Besnova pleaded.

“You guys are really…” Vorobyov was a little speechless, but in the end, the director of the Civil Defense Department still gave in. “Alright, I’ll take you to Bulihanov. I know that the radiation at the nuclear power plant is relatively low now, so you will get less exposure if you follow me. But remember, once you meet Bulihanov, call your people immediately, and no matter what he says, leave the nuclear power plant.”

It could be seen that Vorobyov was already starting to distrust plant manager Bulihanov. The conversation between the two parties must have been unpleasant, and this was not surprising. With Vorobyov’s headstrong and stern personality, he was clearly more willing to believe the readings his eyes saw.

Everyone carefully passed through the two buildings in front of them. The explosions spewed fuel and graphite everywhere, not only on the ground, but also on the roof. In addition, they had also caused a few small fires elsewhere. Fortunately, the workers of the nuclear power plant put them out immediately. The players now knew what the black objects on the ground were.

It was the graphite that wrapped the fuel rods. If they were close enough, they could even see the grooves or the holes in the middle of the fuel rods. Without exception, these graphite blocks were quite very radioactive. According to Vorobyov, if you got close enough, the meter would go off the charts.
