Chapter 3021

~3 min read 440 words

She was convinced that some things only existed in fantasy, or that all of this was deliberately fabricated by the archaeology team.

The reality was nothing like that at all.

But once she placed herself right in the middle of it, the concept became entirely different.

Su Nan let out a long sigh, thinking that if only it weren't because of Wang Cen, perhaps she would exhaust every ounce of her effort trying to get Yang Lusi to accept her, and then join this team, just like Shen Qiong had.

But now she was very clear that this was completely impossible; even if she accepted the previous cooperation, in Su Nan's view, it would already be extraordinary grace if Yang Lusi could spare Wang Cen in the end.

And in the future they would no longer be able to come into contact with this line of work, but would instead choose a place to hide their identities and continue living; as far as Su Nan was concerned, that would already be very good.

But Su Nan also understood that people like them needed a very long cycle to integrate into normal life, because they had already grown accustomed to fighting and killing.

Accustomed to all sorts of inexplicable dangers within tombs — perhaps this was just like soldiers coming down from the battlefield, who would suffer a long period of war fatigue, carrying that tension every moment.

This state posed no problem at all within tombs, but returning to reality would create a huge deviation, and might even affect the normal people around them.

Perhaps after psychological intervention, three to five years would be enough to recover, but some people could not recover in ten, eight years, or even a lifetime.

They could never integrate into normal life, which was no different from a kind of sorrow.

For a moment Su Nan had already resigned herself to fate, but just when she was certain that all this tragedy was bound to happen, hope arrived once again.

For example, Zhang Lin showing extraordinary grace this time and letting them go — little did she know that all of this was merely an illusion.

It was a hope that Wang Cen had traded everything she had to obtain; as far as Su Nan was concerned, this hope was real, but for Wang Cen, all of this was nothing but a bubble of illusion.

In the end, she would have to stake her own life to complete all of this, in order to exchange it for Su Nan's safety — yet Wang Cen had already accepted all of this with remarkable peace.
