Chapter 666: Suddenly Stopped! Young Master Zhao Slipped Up Again!
【Sure, as long as you can hold it still, anything goes.】
【Wuwuwu! Don't let me down—if something really goes wrong on your end, I'll kill you!】
【If you can't hold out, I'll stick pins in a little effigy of you every single day, damn it!】
Even though Young Master Zhao couldn't see any of these bullet comments at this moment, it didn't stop them from using this kind of threatening way to indirectly encourage him.
At this moment, even the officials watching the livestream were breaking a sweat over Young Master Zhao.
Actually, as an official, he didn't want to see this kind of outcome either, but sometimes this kind of outcome is unavoidable.
If the archaeological team hadn't been so eager at the start and had left a few people up top—for instance, if that Wang Kaixuan had stayed up top—then this kind of situation probably wouldn't have happened.
Everyone says he's a good hand at heavy labor, and that's indisputable.
Even some viewers who like to nitpick think so too—when he was hitting Young Master Zhao, he absolutely didn't hold back.
And at the moment of opening the coffin for the first time, he used the most force.
Under this premise, if the first trigger mechanism had been handed to this Wang Kaixuan, then everything could have been completed.
They only needed to worry about the second mechanism, even though everyone actually wasn't optimistic that Shen Qiong would complete the second mechanism.
But they still held on to that last sliver of hope in their hearts—after all, everything has to start from the beginning.
If Young Master Zhao hadn't made a good start of it, then forget the second mechanism—nothing that followed could possibly be completed.
The first step is always the hardest; under this premise, everyone's hearts were in their throats.
If Young Master Zhao succeeded at this first step, they could still have some expectations for the second step, but otherwise there really wouldn't be a single chance left.
Fortunately, this mechanism was rather considerate of Young Master Zhao—he works out regularly, so his strength isn't bad.
But if this mechanism didn't have the corresponding assistance, the current Young Master Zhao wouldn't be able to hold out either.
Zhang Lin had said before that this mechanism needed to be kept in a balanced state—in other words, there absolutely couldn't be any letting go between the exertion of both arms.
Although there was a difference between the front and back, Zhang Lin hadn't said it out loud.
Because he knew that if Young Master Zhao got this information, he would very likely relax his focus, and under this premise it would lead to the same result.
No one could accept this kind of failure, and no one could take it.
So Zhang Lin simply stated it very firmly—under this rigid premise, Young Master Zhao only had one path, and that was to absolutely persist to this degree.
If there was even a centimeter of slack, it would very likely cause the cage inside the prison chamber to drop directly, and in the end all their previous efforts would be wasted.
At the critical moment, Young Master Zhao could tell what mattered most, and precisely because she saw this point, Yang Lu of the Lusicai Society firmly insisted on letting Young Master Zhao complete this first task.
Just at the moment when everyone was breaking out in a cold sweat, the camera suddenly swung into the prison chamber.
All the cages had now risen into the air, reaching an exact position, maintaining a perfectly parallel state.
From this alone, one can prove just how exquisite the craftsmanship of that time was!
Actually, pulling the cages up required the gear effect—the chains below connected to the mechanisms, and all of this could complement each other.
But the key was that the Prince of Gumo not only had his men build these mechanisms, but under all these mechanisms, everything could be maintained in such a perfect state.
Otherwise, the first shadow mechanism wouldn't have been forcibly required to stay in a balanced state.
At this moment, they suddenly understood the subtext Zhang Lin had been implying.
