Chapter 1589: Everyone is a marionette! Do you think this is scary?!

At this moment, Wu Ya used sign language to express some things to Zhang Lin. This was what Zhang Lin had told her yesterday—to learn sign language simply and transmit information over.

Especially when Wang Canghai might call, it meant that the other party had likely infiltrated some things.

If these things were exposed by Wang Canghai, then Zhang Lin had to know immediately.

After seeing what Wu Ya wanted to express, Zhang Lin was a bit amused. He hadn't expected Wang Canghai to have reached such a point.

He had indeed thought in his heart before that these Sixteen Diagrams of the Exiled Immortal had their corresponding functions.

But if placed in the present, this was simply nonsense.

And for the other party to want to accomplish some things through such things only showed his ignorance. Zhang Lin couldn't possibly agree to the other party.

If it didn't involve that mechanism, agreeing to this matter would be fine. Even if Wang Canghai didn't keep his word in the end, it wouldn't be a problem.

It wouldn't be any loss to him, and the same went for the Second Archaeological Team.

Winning this matter would be the icing on the cake, and losing would just mean maintaining the current rhythm. Since there was no impact, Zhang Lin simply went with the flow!

But now, the impact was huge. If they didn't blow up the things in the Ming Tower, then forget about getting the Dust-Suppressing Pearl; they wouldn't be able to move an inch inside King Xian's true underground palace.

King Xian set up this biggest mechanism on top and reinforced it through the method of... 【text missing/garbled】... using the current... 【text missing/garbled】.

This Ming Tower was the hub of all mechanisms. Destroying it would cause most of the mechanisms, especially the most dangerous one, to fail.

Even if they encountered certain difficulties afterward, it would be much simpler than rushing in directly. Under the premise that they didn't destroy this place, this King Xian tomb was more dangerous than ten Jingjue Ancient Cities combined.

And at this time, someone thought of the words Zhang Lin said earlier and immediately raised their hand to ask, "Mr. Zhang, you just said this is the core point of the mechanism. Then what exactly is the most dangerous mechanism it carries?"

Zhang Lin wanted to use sign language to pass a message to Wu Ya below, but now that someone had asked, he simply used this method to tell Wang Canghai his reply directly.

Zhang Lin immediately said, "Very simple, marionettes!"

The crowd was stunned. They understood these four words, and they understood this vocabulary.

But when linked to King Xian's tomb through Zhang Lin's mouth, they couldn't understand it.

In the next instant, Zhang Lin continued, "Imagine, if they reach King Xian's underground palace, as long as they reach a certain core point, their bodies will lose control."

"It's like someone is using strings to pull their arms to make actions, and what if this kind of force and control method gets stronger and stronger?"

The crowd subconsciously swallowed their saliva. The person who asked earlier asked again, "Mr. Zhang, is it another hallucination like the Corpse-Fragrant Konjac?"

Zhang Lin shook his head and said, "Not a hallucination. Marionettes maintain their own consciousness; it's just that the body is out of control. To get rid of this thing, there is no antidote. It's like they have strings on their hands, and these invisible strings are constructed by the witchcraft of the Ancient Dian Kingdom and... 【text missing/garbled】... together!"

"You can understand it as a traction made by ropes constructed of microorganisms, and these ropes have no form at all. They are equivalent to silk threads formed by air; there's no way to destroy them."

The crowd gasped. They finally understood why Zhang Lin wanted to transmit the remaining information in this way and told them they must resolutely destroy this place.

Some things even exceeded their original imagination. No one dared to imagine what the result would be if the things Zhang Lin mentioned happened. This was even more terrifying than inside the Jingjue Ancient City.

A person in a hallucination would at least lose self-consciousness, and then the things they did would be out of control. At the very least, after waking up, many irresponsible people would still look for excuses.

But if it were like a marionette, the consciousness is clear, they can still speak, and they can still maintain all behaviors of autonomous spirit, but the body is out of control, then there wouldn't even be an excuse.

They would watch themselves fight with their teammates, then fight until they were bloody, and finally, only when everyone was dead would these mechanisms stop triggering. ===== CHAPTER 1590 =====
