Chapter 657

Because the matter was of great importance and would affect the direction of everything that followed, the officials relaying the message would not overlook a single detail.

They couldn't see the broadcast to begin with, so if there were even slight changes during the relaying of the message,

it could easily lead to a situation where a tiny error snowballed into a massive mistake!

Moreover, this piece of news had been passed through two hands, which made the two people in the middle even more cautious.

Therefore, at this point Wang Kaixuan did not doubt the words themselves; he only felt the matter was becoming increasingly difficult to handle, and ultimately still couldn't quite grasp Zhang Lin's specific meaning.

Upon hearing this, Yang Lu shook her head without hesitation and said, "Mr. Zhang usually likes to keep people in suspense, and he might even crack a joke, but at a moment like this, he definitely wouldn't do something like that."

"Captain Yang, I don't mean to question Mr. Zhang's words—I'm just even more worried now," Wang Kaixuan said without hesitation.

The situation above was already very clear at this point; even though he wasn't the team leader, many people were already mulling over candidates in their minds.

What Yang Lu had said at the beginning wasn't wrong either—no matter how difficult the mechanism, one had to try it before anything else.

One couldn't always think of retreating when faced with difficulties.

These people weren't trying to prove how amazing they were; unlike Young Master Zhao, most of them were simply thinking about doing their own job well.

Living up to the wages they received.

The reason Wang Kaixuan subconsciously assumed Zhang Lin was speaking in riddles was entirely because, deep down, he harbored such a hope.

He actually didn't want everything Zhang Lin said to be true, because if it was as Zhang Lin said—then what came next would be even harder than stepping on every single floor tile.

Wang Kaixuan didn't even dare imagine just how difficult it would have to be for Zhang Lin to offer such a reminder.

If it really were that way, then their attempt might not even have a thirty percent chance of success.

Originally, after hearing the relayed message,

Zhang Lin's explanation of the first trigger mechanism caused the expressions on their faces to shift from solemn to relaxed.

Because no matter how difficult the first mechanism was, it still relied on strength to hold it up.

As long as a person's strength was brought out in such a situation, they might be able to unleash the greatest potential of their body—even someone like Young Master Zhao was no exception.

Although he had no proper demeanor and kept causing trouble, precisely because of this, he had to try twice as hard.

If this person were cavalier about the trip, not even caring about the direction the Luo Pan pointed, and all those other matters, it would actually make people even less at ease.

So upon hearing about the first mechanism, basically everyone instinctively thought of the same candidate—Young Master Zhao.

They had no one else to choose either; if that guide were a little younger, had some brawn, and wasn't so superstitious and cryptic,

everyone would have immediately dismissed the idea of choosing Young Master Zhao.
