Chapter 1559: There are monsters in the red mist! Desperate shouting!

~7 min read 1,259 words

Now that he saw his people appearing in the live stream lens of the Second Archaeological Team, he had no good way to handle it and could only let the situation develop.

As for what to do later, it all depended on the spontaneous reactions of his people. He couldn't possibly arrange for his people to make corresponding choices at every moment; after all, he was only commanding indirectly right now.

If Mr. Wang were by his side like Xue Long, then Wang Canghai could squander his command authority without any scruples, even if it meant letting them go to their deaths directly.

But the Wang family members were essentially different from those people sent out by Xue Long. Considering this, Wang Canghai had to choose silence for now.

His silence was one thing, but Xue Long in the back was full of surprise.

He knew that the people inside were sent out by Wang Canghai. Although it was also indirect, to Xue Long, this matter was too shocking.

What kind of person was Wang Canghai? As long as it was someone assigned by him, they absolutely had to obey his orders one hundred percent; otherwise, there was only one outcome, which was to die.

But now Wang Canghai suddenly had a feeling of leaving things to fate. Could it be that he was truly no longer interested in the Dust-Dispelling Bead?

However, the next moment Xue Long understood the logic within. This proved that Wang Canghai could not control these people one hundred percent, and he had certain concerns in his heart.

This led to Wang Canghai having to make such a choice now, which was also a choice made under the necessity of yielding to the situation in his own heart.

Xue Long couldn't help but shake his head and sigh secretly, thinking to himself that he had followed Wang Canghai for so many years, and he thought he was that absolute core member.

But when he saw all this, he immediately understood that he was just a joke after all!

He had no value. He originally thought that Jack, Raymond, and Hailong were the sacrifices.

But looking at it now, Xue Long was completely certain that he was also that sacrifice!

The people sent out right now were Wang Canghai's confidants; at least they had the right to choose autonomously.

Even under such circumstances, Wang Canghai hadn't contacted that side to directly command the personnel to make any choices. This was the difference. Xue Long also felt his heart turn to ash, and he no longer held any hope for Wang Canghai.

Now he was even more firm in his previous thought, which came from Zhang Lin. Even if he had taken the Corpse Beetle Pill, his remaining hope was still with Zhang Lin, not with Wang Canghai.

Having figured this out, an exceptionally firm emotion appeared in Xue Long's eyes. But Wang Canghai didn't care about this at all.

How Xue Long performed now had no meaning to him. In fact, whether he killed Xue Long or not didn't have much meaning to him either; anyway, Xue Long had already met Zhang Lin through indirect means.

And Wang Canghai never believed that Xue Long had met Zhang Lin's assistant at the Dragon Pool and hadn't said anything to Zhang Lin.

Even if Zhang Lin wouldn't choose to trust Xue Long, through that subsequent phone call, Wang Canghai could be certain that Zhang Lin might have arranged some tasks for Xue Long.

And the reason Wang Canghai let the other party take the Corpse Beetle Pill to give him a path to survival now was precisely to use this method to infiltrate.

Perhaps when the time came, Xue Long himself would make some brain-dead decisions that went against Zhang Lin's wishes, and then choose to return to his side by betraying Zhang Lin.

At that time, Wang Canghai could also use this to make Zhang Lin suffer a great loss.

Of course, regarding the matter of using Xue Long to kill Zhang Lin, Wang Canghai hadn't even thought about it.

Anyone who obtained immortality had a special constitution, and through the tempering of these years, their skills were far beyond ordinary people. Even Wang Canghai himself had eyes in the back of his head!

Wang Canghai knew that wanting to kill Zhang Lin by assassination was simply impossible, just as it was impossible for someone to stab him in the back.

Looking at the Second Archaeological Team, Yang Lu was still watching those red mists and those villagers running in her direction.

At first, Yang Lu felt she had already determined the situation, but at this moment, she was doubtful again.

In her view, this matter carried certain particularities because these red mists had no toxicity, so Yang Lu wasn't worried.

And they thought the red mist carried high toxicity, so they had to flee. Yang Lu had been firm in this logic at first.

In an instant, she discarded it directly. If it were only because of the effect of the toxic mist, they would certainly have dodged it in time while maintaining their original plan.

So they wouldn't choose to come directly; after all, this would affect their subsequent stalking plan. Yang Lu wouldn't turn back to collide with them.

And their active arrival meant there were other things behind them. Also, could these red mists alone really cause the mountain belly to tremble along with it?

Yang Lu felt this answer was absolutely negative. Having figured this out, Yang Lu took a deep breath and directly picked up her Vajra Umbrella.

Wang Kaixuan said subconsciously: "Team Leader Yang, shouldn't we leave directly now?"

Wang Kaixuan looked at the road behind; at least they still had a road to walk.

But Yang Lu immediately threw an incendiary bomb toward the rear.

What Wang Kaixuan saw was that the original road behind was covered in dense thorns; these thorns were made of stone, meaning they were facing another form of towering mountains and ridges.

Under this premise, it was impossible to travel quickly. But Wang Kaixuan still said: "Team Leader Yang, even if the subsequent journey is slow, we can't collide with them here, right? Didn't you say before..."

Yang Lu didn't wait for him to finish and shook her head immediately: "You should look at the situation clearly before speaking."

The next moment, Yang Lu broke open another incendiary bomb and threw it into the red mist. And the moment it was thrown inside, a roaring sound came out.

This roar carried a gust of wind as it whistled past, rushing toward the faces of the Second Archaeological Team.

And immediately after, that Leng Feng shouted: "There's a monster behind! Let's join forces first, and we'll talk about the rest later!"

For the Wang family, there are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests, especially in this kind of tomb where temporary cooperation is necessary for them.

They could make any sacrifice because these people alone couldn't deal with the thing behind. Under the situation of coordination and cooperation, Leng Feng needed someone with better skills than himself to complete this matter, while he acted as an assistant.

The only person Leng Feng could think of was Yang Lu. If the monster behind wasn't cleared away, no one would be able to walk out of here wholeheartedly, let alone go looking for the Dust-Dispelling Bead; that was completely an Arabian Nights tale.

Leng Feng shouted this at the top of his lungs, without any scruples!
