Chapter 2466: Two Minutes Later! Fatty as If Nothing Happened!

~5 min read 893 words

And before that, who knows, the matter of the Wan Nu King might also be uncovered in the process. When Wang Canghai truly has no other choice, he won't be so stubborn. Zhang Lin is pressing him step by step.

He just wants the other party to voluntarily speak those things out, rather than continuing to hold back and choke on words with him—that would hold no meaning whatsoever for Zhang Lin.

He also hopes Wang Canghai makes this point clear: if Mr. Wang makes this phone call now, even if Zhang Lin picks up, he will absolutely use a perfunctory manner to tell the other party what to do next.

As long as they follow his orders, that's enough. So if this phone call is made, then Mr. Wang's score in Zhang Lin's eyes will drop considerably. Fortunately, in the end Mr. Wang held back.

It seems he is also very clear about one answer: there's no need to dwell on those things now, he just needs to complete his own proper task.

Based on this point, he can put aside everything and simply obey Zhang Lin's orders. This is the answer and response Mr. Wang can think of at this moment.

Looking now at Archaeology Team One, Wang Cen didn't explain too much to his own subordinates. And right now, leading these people forward is also seeking a way out for them.

The next moment, Wang Cen immediately said: "I don't want to explain anything to you, but whoever wants to keep following me, follow me. Whoever doesn't want to follow can leave right now."

Although Zhang Lin didn't have Wang Cen disband the current Wang family members, that was previously just an act put on for Wang Canghai to see. Since Wang Canghai has already made things so clear,

then whether the people around him are present or not, the result is the same. Their existence will only bring more sacrifices. It's not that Wang Cen is truly merciful, but a man about to die speaks kindly. At the very least, he doesn't want to drag more lives into it.

Besides, even if these people die, it won't help him in any way. He is already a man marked for death. Although perhaps the final death will come after Archaeology Team One finishes exploring Tiangong,

or at that final stage, he has no choice but to sacrifice himself—maybe a week or half a month from now—but this outcome of him eventually dying cannot be avoided.

Since Wang Cen has already accepted his fate, he won't explain anything more to his subordinates.

The subordinates looked at each other, not knowing why. At this moment they no longer looked toward Wang Cen, nor did they expect him to give them an explanation. Instead, they all looked toward Wu Tianzhen in unison.

But at this moment, where would Wu Tianzhen have the mind to pay them any attention? Wu Tianzhen and Zhang Tianshi were both by the hot spring, quietly watching. Two minutes had already passed.

Judging by normal breath-holding time, if Fatty doesn't come up now, they'll have to hurry down and rescue him.

If Fatty really drowned here, that result would definitely be unacceptable to everyone. The key issue is that Zhang Lin isn't at the New Moon Inn right now, and they don't know what response to make.

If Zhang Lin were at the New Moon Inn right now, he would definitely give an answer—namely, whether to go into the water to save Fatty now, or what method would be best.

Wu Tianzhen and Zhang Tianshi exchanged a glance, and both nodded at the same time. Zhang Tianshi was just about to dive in headfirst when, unexpectedly, a figure suddenly shot out at that moment, followed by heavy gasping—it was Fatty.

Half a second later in the evening, and both Zhang Tianshi and Wu Tianzhen would have had to go down. Wu Tianzhen's foot had already stumbled. At this moment, he looked at Fatty with eyes full of shock and uncertainty.

He didn't know whether Fatty had truly been detoxified, but judging by the other party's heavy gasping state, the great stone in Wu Tianzhen's heart slowly settled to the ground.

Fatty also swam upward little by little, then wiped his face with his hand and said: "This hot spring is really nice—I bet besides detoxifying, it can cure illnesses too!"

Fatty, like nothing had happened, seemed to have forgotten everything that happened before. Or rather, when he was controlled by the toxin, he didn't remember any of those things at all.

Zhang Tianshi shook his head and said nothing. He was already used to Fatty's kind of reaction. Actually, Wu Tianzhen had long been used to it too, but he still shook his head with a bitter smile.

He thought to himself that Fatty really was a treasure. Things had come to this, yet Fatty still didn't seem to care much about his own life. Perhaps this also fit normal logic—this was Fatty's personality.

Others couldn't change it, nor could they influence it in any way.

Everything continued in this manner. And at this moment, Fatty's focus of attention wasn't on his own narrow escape at all. In his view, as long as Zhang Lin above the New Moon Inn said it could detoxify, then the result was inevitable.
