Chapter 817: Mutual Killing? The Entire Second Archaeology Team Annihilated?
Moreover, based on the situation of Wang Wang Canghai from the first archaeology team, they came up with a bold speculation.
That was whether the Alert Queen was still alive.
【You guys said since Wang Wang Canghai might be alive, then what about the Jingjue Queen?】
【I don't think the two are the same concept. Wang Wang Canghai only has a few hundred years, but the Jingjue Queen is separated by more than a thousand years, right?】
【Since it's immortality, then this time node has no meaning.】
【Not necessarily. Can what is called immortality really let one live forever?】
【Even if their bodies won't deteriorate, they would still be subject to accidents. For example, a shot to the head would kill anyone.】
【Stop making wild guesses. On this matter, apart from Mr. Zhang who can give a reasonable analysis, the rest of us are just talking nonsense.】
Once these words were spoken, everyone chose to fall silent on this topic.
That's right, what they were looking forward to even more was the arrival of evening.
Once Zhang Lin continued his storytelling, perhaps new questions would arise.
After all, having already reached the Ancient Jingjue City was equivalent to opening a door to a new world for everyone.
Under this premise, the doubts that previously came along and couldn't be answered now seemed to be able to receive a corresponding satisfactory result.
The group walked for half an hour, still a stretch of desolation, not seeing any ruined buildings.
Perhaps just as Hu Hu Bayi had analyzed at the beginning, under the settled condition of the Black Gauze Treasure, the full view of the Ancient Jingjue City simply couldn't be seen.
Right now it was buried deep underground.
At this moment Wang Wang Kaixuan suddenly asked: "Captain Yang, you said if that Corpse Fragrance Amorphophallus could really bring hallucinations to people, could it be that everything we see now is an illusion?"
Yang Lu raised an eyebrow, then smiled and said: "Don't overthink it. Although this possibility exists, I think since we have camera livestreaming."
"Although we can't see the bullet comments sent by netizens in the livestream room, even if the Jingjue Queen's hallucination could deceive everyone, this kind of mechanical camera cannot be eroded."
Hearing this, Hu Hu Bayi and Wang Wang Kaixuan exchanged a glance and nodded in succession.
Thinking to himself that Yang Lu was right. If even the current livestream footage could be deceived, then the Jingjue Queen would really be too terrifying.
The key was, in such an extreme environment, how was the Corpse Fragrance Amorphophallus raised?
Could it be that all the people of the Ancient Jingjue City at that time were immersed in this kind of hallucination, and the reason the Jingjue Queen could control them was precisely because of this kind of hallucination?
The answer to this question was clearly negative in everyone's heart.
Because the concept they had formed was that the Jingjue Queen Zhang Lin told them about was a female demon.
She relied on the ability her eyes could create to forge an independent imaginary space.
And the eyeball also represented the source of power and the supreme existence in Jingjue culture.
As long as one knew these things, there seemed to be nothing more to doubt.
The group walked at an unhurried pace. At this moment, a figure in the distance kept running toward them.
It was originally an open area, so even from a hundred meters away one could see at a glance.
But this black shadow had suddenly appeared, and even the sound reached them only at this moment.
【Holy shit, isn't that Young Master Zhao?】
【What's going on? Time travel? How did he suddenly pop out?】
【That's fucking scary. Looks like Captain Yang's analysis just now doesn't hold up.】
Because of Young Master Zhao's sudden appearance, it seemed that all the situations Yang Lu had analyzed before were broken.
At this moment Yang Lu and the others also abruptly turned their heads, seeing Young Master Zhao running toward them with a terrified look.
While running he also shouted at the top of his lungs: "There are ghosts! They're all dead! They're all dead!"
No one knew what he was talking about. Yang Lu quietly waited for him to run up to her.
Young Master Zhao had already lost his strength from this sudden sprint. He subconsciously fell to his knees, still maintaining that terrified look.
Pointing behind him, he said: "Captain Yang, there are ghosts! There really are ghosts! They're all dead! The people are dead! The camels are gone too!"
Yang Lu narrowed her eyes slightly. Seeing that Young Master Zhao was still repeating these illogical words, she immediately asked: "Speak slowly. What exactly is the situation?"
But Wang Wang Kaixuan at this moment didn't allow Young Master Zhao to utter half a sentence, and kicked him right in the chest.
Pointing the military shovel at his nose, he cursed: "You bastard! Playing tricks on me here, saying they're all dead?! If you want to follow just say so, why make up this kind of nonsense to scare people. See if Master Kai doesn't beat you to death today!"
After saying this, Wang Wang Kaixuan, without thinking twice, swung the military shovel in his hand and was about to hit Young Master Zhao.
But at this moment his wrist was seized by Hu Hu Bayi, who gripped it tightly.
"Old Hu, don't stop me. Today I must teach this kid a lesson! He keeps pulling this kind of stunt. I've already endured it for a long time."
Before Hu Hu Bayi could say anything, Yang Lu had actually already realized the situation was off.
She immediately asked: "Young Master Zhao, when did you follow us?"
Young Master Zhao hurriedly said: "Ten minutes, ten minutes ago. I don't know what happened. The other people seemed to go crazy, especially that guide from before. He was the first to make a move, and then the rest of the archaeology team started killing each other."
So Young Master Zhao's talk about ghosts was this situation. The next moment Yang Lu noticed that he actually had bloodstains on his body.
Her heart suddenly skipped a beat!
Yang Lu understood that Young Master Zhao didn't seem to be lying. Had that kind of situation really happened?
And if all this was true, then things were going to be troublesome.
The officials naturally noticed this point, and they directly split the livestream screen.
But seeing the situation on the other half made everyone's eyes pop out.
The members of the archaeology team were still there, and the guide was feeding the camels. Everything was not at all like what Young Master Zhao had said.
The only one missing from the second archaeology team right now was Young Master Zhao.
