Chapter 2877: Just Half an Inch Short of Pulling Back the Attack—Is This Even Human?
Everything Su Nan is doing now leans entirely toward Yang Lu, and has nothing whatsoever to do with anyone else.
Yang Lu had originally wanted to see just how much guts this Su Nan had right now, but she hadn't expected the people behind her to actually open their mouths.
Without thinking further, Yang Lu directly gave Wang Kaixuan a look; the latter took the hint, the corner of his mouth curling upward at the same time—perhaps Wang Kaixuan, too, needed a good way to vent the fury in his heart.
Now, following Yang Lu's wishes, she probably didn't want to actually kill Su Nan, so the group that had come with Su Nan was certainly going to suffer for it.
Wang Kaixuan didn't even need to ask—just as Yang Lu had thought, this group's identity was self-evident; judging by their clothing, they were definitely tomb raiders, so they deserved what they got.
Wang Kaixuan, Hu Bayi, and Shen Qiong, without the slightest hesitation, charged straight over, while the people behind them were already dumbfounded; only when they saw the others swinging weapons at them did they half-come to their senses—doom had arrived.
Watching this scene in the livestream, quite a few people sucked in a cold breath, and those whose brains weren't quite up to the task immediately chose to share their opinions.
【No matter how you look at them, this group doesn't seem like Wang family people, so why do this?】
【One look and you can tell your brain doesn't work right—does it really matter whether they're Wang family people or not?】
【How is it not important? If they're not Wang family people, why should they suffer such a fate?】
【First, you need to understand one thing—they're tomb raiders, got it?】
【How can you be so sure this group is definitely tomb raiders? Maybe they're just guides or something.】
【There's really no explaining things to an idiot like you.】
【Agreed. Some people simply have no idea how serious things have gotten and just stand here playing saint.】
【What's that supposed to mean! How am I playing saint?! Wait until Mr. Zhang climbs up to New Moon Hotel, and we'll see whether he has any complaints about this matter.】
【Fine, then we'll just wait and see how you get slapped in the face when the time comes.】
The crowd buzzed with opinions, but that couldn't change the reality of the situation.
Wang Kaixuan led his men in a direct charge, and in the blink of an eye slit the throats of every one of these people who hadn't even reacted yet—this also announced to everyone that the Second Archaeology Team had never been about any womanly mercy.
The reason they showed a measure of mercy in many situations was simply because things hadn't reached that point; but now there was nothing more to say—the outcome was already sealed.
Perhaps the person who had hired this crew never in a million years imagined suffering such a fate. They had been to all kinds of great tombs before, and their hands were stained with lives, yet they still naively assumed that many things would never fall on their own heads.
It was precisely this naivety that cost them their lives, and the death of this group also succeeded in shaking Uncle Ming to his core.
Hiding at the very back, Uncle Ming subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, never in his wildest dreams imagining something like this would happen. At first he had been convinced that even if the Second Archaeology Team was ruthless or willing to act outside the rules, they wouldn't take things to such an ugly extreme.
After all, they represented the official side; if the official face looked bad, the Second Archaeology Team would surely be affected. But this time reality told Uncle Ming that his thinking was truly far too naive.
It wasn't that Yang Lu wasn't ruthless enough, nor that Yang Lu only struck hard at the Wang family—anyone she saw as deserving death, she would absolutely show no mercy.
At this moment Uncle Ming finally truly understood that he had no way out, and that everything he had done before was simply courting death.
