Chapter 133: 86. It’s hard to save a fool.

Translator: 549690339

Noland Lee glanced at the magic wands in the metal box, his brows slightly furrowed.

Something was off with the Bone-mending Wand.

Not that there was a problem with the wand itself, but there was something abnormal with the magic protective shield surrounding it.

Noland clearly remembered that he had reduced the thickness of the magic protective shield in front of the warrant officers at the meeting place.

But now, the magic protective shield wrapped around the Bone-mending Wand had only grown thicker and sturdier than before.

Correspondingly, the Undead Runes on the magic protective shield had become much more complex, doubling in number.

Feeling that the situation was a bit tricky, Noland had no choice but to face his superiors and continue working.

As Noland frowned at the magic wand, Murphy pulled out a cloth bag from under his cloak and handed it over to Noland:

“You need the original text, translation, and rune staff to modify the Undead Runes. I’ve brought them all for you. They’re in the cloth bag. Remove the magic protective shield here. I’ll go lead the Military Intelligence Department personnel away. Act quickly, Jarvis. Division Intelligence Unit Two has sent many investigators, and they’re all after this wand.”

Noland reached into the cloth bag, pulling out the document and the rune staff.

As he looked up again, the swift Murphy had already vanished without a trace, only the spinning mist on the spot proving that she had just been there.

Looking at the translation in his left hand, the rune staff in his right hand, and finally lowering his head to look at the Bone-mending Wand in the metal box, Noland felt like he had become a qualified toolman.

He wondered why such a dangerous task as removing the magic protective shield fell entirely on him.

Moreover, everyone believed that he, Noland, could handle the job alone, without worrying about his personal safety, even if they merely reminded him to “be careful.”

And about these Military Intelligence Department personnel, if they followed the smell of the magic protective shield to the scene, they would only see a Private Second Class messing with the wand.

This Private Second Class would definitely not end well, while his superiors would simply run off and not have a problem.

When the time came, this Private Second Class, Noland himself, would undoubtedly be implicated in the whole incident, and even become the scapegoat.

In that instant, Nolang felt like he had reverted to being a corporate slave.

Before anything went wrong, everyone shoved work his way.

As soon as something happened, everyone washed their hands of the situation and put the blame squarely on the head of the person who had been doing their job diligently.

Before crossing into this world. Noland had experienced this treatment in his

company.

How did it come to pass that, even after crossing over, he couldn’t change this situation?

What was the reason for Noland becoming a toolman…

Noland complained inwardly, secretly grumbling.

Thinking about how Military Intelligence Department personnel might appear at any moment, he couldn’t help but settle down, cast aside his distractions, and focus on the task at hand.

He circled the metal box at his feet a few times, changing angles to observe the magic protective shield, and quickly found a troublesome spot.

If there were a thousand Undead Runes on the magic protective shield, the translation provided by Murphy would only account for about 400 of them, or 40%.

Following her translation to modify the Undead Runes, at most, Noland could reduce the strength of the magic protective shield by 40%.

If he wanted to remove the magic protective shield completely, Noland would have to make use of the teachings from the “Martyr’s Ten Commandments — Summary”…
