Chapter 1933: Guide! Heaven-Blessed Bard! Both Indispensable!

Although the external interference would bring them some trouble.

But since Zhang Lin was there to command, there was no need to worry about such trouble — the key lay in the conditions inside the tomb.

Yang Lu thought this way not out of blind confidence in Zhang Lin, but based on all the arrangements he had made beforehand; within those arrangements, most things subtly and deliberately guided the Wang family members toward misconceptions.

And through the subtext Zhang Lin conveyed, they could pick up on different meanings and make different choices — this was Zhang Lin's absolute ability on the Crescent Moon Restaurant.

Using these methods, Zhang Lin was able time and again to lead Archaeology Team Two from danger to safety, and even reap the greatest gains from within that danger.

On the other hand, when this Ake heard Yang Lu ask that question, a clearly unusual glint flashed through his eyes — it was obvious he had never imagined that Yang Lu's group was actually trying to find the Temple of Reincarnation!

But since he was a Heaven-Blessed Bard, he was certainly no stranger to the Temple of Reincarnation.

Perhaps this ability of his was itself connected in some way to the Reincarnation Sect, but Zhang Lin had not told Yang Lu or Xue Long about this.

For them, all they had to do was keep moving downward with this Heaven-Blessed Bard and not bother with anything else.

And if this Heaven-Blessed Bard Ake really did have some problem, Yang Lu would certainly deal with it in time afterward — Zhang Lin was quite sure of this.

Since he was certain of this, Zhang Lin did not need to make too many further arrangements for what came next; in fact, every member of Archaeology Team Two understood this in their own heart — they could not rely on Zhang Lin to give them corresponding instructions at every single step.

The key was that in most situations they still had to rely on their own abilities to resolve many of the subsequent problems; if they could not even solve problems of this level, then no matter how detailed Zhang Lin's explanations of the road ahead were, these people would never find the optimal balance.

And they would not be able to complete what came next — Zhang Lin was more certain of this than anyone.

And under the premise of being certain of this, Zhang Lin naturally commanded both archaeology teams with a very calm attitude; the reason he did so was also because he did not want the viewers in the livestream to notice anything unusual — including the people on the Crescent Moon Restaurant.

What Zhang Lin was now doing was avoiding unnecessary complications; once certain things began to ferment, especially when they had no direct connection to what they needed to do later, Wang Canghai might well use that point to lobby Zhang Lin.

He might even seize certain opportunities to create minor but troublesome problems for Zhang Lin.

Up to now, although Zhang Lin held Wang Canghai in complete contempt, this contempt did not mean Zhang Lin would let down his guard.

And the methods and logic Wang Canghai had always employed were basically well understood by Zhang Lin; based on this understanding, Zhang Lin had managed to make Wang Canghai look thoroughly shabby on several previous occasions.

No matter what method Wang Canghai used, he could not truly achieve victory; since Zhang Lin had already reached this goal, he could continue to use the same approach afterward and handle everything as perfectly as possible — this was Zhang Lin's long-standing habit.

But looking at the current situation, this Ake seemed to have a glint of wariness appear in his eyes the next moment, because from an overall perspective—

Ake had absolutely no reason to serve as their guide, including the long poems and everything else he possessed — these were all his own things, and there was no need for him to help Archaeology Team Two with anything.

In fact, even taking a step back, the saying still held: since Zhang Lin had arranged all of this, there must be a definite reason behind it — but Ake, after all, did not know Zhang Lin.

So he did not need to save face for Zhang Lin; if he had some understanding of Zhang Lin and held a certain admiration in his heart, he would certainly have given Zhang Lin face.

But now there was no time to build such an understanding, and besides, Xue Long had not used threats against Ake.

So in this situation, Ake had many choices, yet he insisted on following them — Yang Lu herself had doubts about this matter.

She also believed that, on the basis of her own doubts, Zhang Lin could not possibly have none; at the very least, Xue Long had already subtly described to her the specific situation regarding this Ake.

And since Ake himself carried so many questions, Yang Lu would certainly treat this matter with great seriousness.

After thinking through all this, Yang Lu would directly make her request to Ake in this manner, because she felt it was not only a matter of time being tight.

There was also the matter of Zhang Lin's side — now each of them clearly knew exactly what they needed to do, and all of this came from coordinated cooperation.

In other words, the moment Zhang Lin ascended the Crescent Moon Restaurant, they had to react immediately; otherwise, the subsequent results were likely to fall out of balance along with it.

If at the moment Zhang Lin made his entrance they had not yet established even the most basic understanding of Evil Luo Sea City and the things they might encounter afterward, then what came next would become very difficult to handle.

That was not the result Yang Lu wanted to see, and even less the result Zhang Lin wanted to see; right now, Zhang Lin's core purpose in guiding Archaeology Team Two through certain methods was to lift the curse upon them — as long as the curse could be lifted, everything else could be ignored.

In fact, the reason Zhang Lin had reached this point today and had Archaeology Team One set out in sync was, although there was an underlying purpose of coordinated cooperation—

Ultimately, if the curse could not be lifted, all other underlying purposes would be meaningless; precisely because Zhang Lin saw this clearly, he was now having Archaeology Team Two prepare step by step in advance.

If they did not find a Heaven-Blessed Bard, did not find a guide, then afterward, relying solely on Zhang Lin's instructions, things would become extremely troublesome — after all, Zhang Lin would not privately communicate too much with Xue Long; in the end, Xue Long was not Wu Ya, and Zhang Lin could not trust him one hundred percent.

Since he could not give the other party one hundred percent trust, regarding what came afterward, it ultimately still depended on how Archaeology Team Two itself responded.
