Chapter 918: Tomb-guarding beast abnormality! Three seconds late!
Zhao Young Master hurriedly looked at the abdomen of the tomb-guarding beast according to what Shen Qiong and Yang Lu had just said.
As a result, Zhao Young Master gasped, seeing that there was nothing on the abdomen of the tomb-guarding beast.
Nothing at all?
This tomb-guarding beast was the farthest from here; no one would have anticipated such a situation. At the beginning, Zhang Lin had already given that judgment.
But he didn't say the copper emblem was in the place where it seemed it should appear. Regarding the first point, Yang Lu guessed correctly, but Zhang Lin was not a god; he couldn't predict a situation he hadn't seen at all.
Even relying on past experience, Wang Canghai himself set up these three statues and the remnant formation; he wasn't clear about this matter and could only infer based on his impressions of everything.
There was also previous experience as a consideration. Under this premise, he couldn't give the most precise answer for everything.
If that were really the case, then the suspicious gazes of everyone would fall on Zhang Lin!
Regarding all the dangers that would appear in the tomb, and regarding this mechanism, Zhang Lin could give corresponding judgments, but as for this key, looking at the situation right now, it could only rely on Zhao Young Master to find it himself.
And at this time, inside the Crescent Hotel, everyone looked at Zhao Young Master, who was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan in the lens; perhaps in another dozen seconds, the main force of the Second Archaeological Team would be able to reach that entrance.
If the corresponding copper emblem still couldn't be found before this, then everything would be wasted.
However, there was at least one piece of good news: as long as Zhao Young Master expressed this matter in time, perhaps they could give up on the key.
Even if the road ahead became very difficult to walk or they couldn't find the exit, at least under Zhang Lin's guidance, perhaps they could still open a path connecting to the imaginary space.
It might be possible to escape in a roundabout way at that time.
However, Zhang Lin was indeed frowning deeply right now. He said immediately: "Look at the back! Why don't you look at the back?"
This Zhao Young Master's brain was indeed not working well in his anxiety; if it was on the statue, since it wasn't in the front, it must be in the back—what was there to ask?
If it weren't for the critical situation, perhaps Zhao Young Master could have thought of this point, but right now he was just spinning around, then staring fixedly at the abdomen of this tomb-guarding beast, shouting incessantly.
Yang Lu was really too far away; they could only use hand signals, and only Shen Qiong could hear his shouting.
And at this time, Shen Qiong did not pass the words to Yang Lu, but instead cupped her hands around her mouth and roared immediately: "Look for it on the statue, it must be there!"
Shen Qiong's words finally served as a reminder to Zhao Young Master. At this time, he also put away all his panicked emotions and hurriedly searched up and down.
And just at this moment, he finally discovered a copper emblem on the back of the statue, and everyone inside the Crescent Hotel also breathed a sigh of relief.
They thought to themselves that this Zhao Young Master finally didn't make the mess particularly big. If he really couldn't find the copper emblem, time would pass second by second.
The final result would only be that they would all die without a burial place.
And just at this moment, the main force of the Second Archaeological Team, led by Wang Kaixuan and Hu Bayi, finally walked to the end of the suspension bridge and arrived at the location of the cave entrance.
Seeing this situation, Yang Lu, who was farthest away, hurriedly used hand signals; this was what they had agreed upon before. Shen Qiong also raised her hand at this time and looked at Zhao Young Master simultaneously.
Zhao Young Master raised his left arm without hesitation and held up a thumb to indicate he was ready.
After seeing this signal, they counted a number in their hearts, and then they began to act; this was the plan set before.
And immediately after, Yang Lu twisted the copper emblem without hesitation. With a *click*, the copper emblem on the first node was twisted off directly.
Shen Qiong followed suit and did the same. Just at this moment, the ground trembled, even affecting the suspension bridge.
The next moment, Yang Lu ran towards the position the Second Archaeological Team had passed before without hesitation, starting to run wildly.
She always felt that this situation was not quite right. According to Yang Lu's estimation, there should still be a minute and a half left, but in the current situation, the first suspension bridge had already collapsed!
And the blue firelight above was hot and intense, as if it wanted to swallow everything.
Although she didn't know what had happened, it could be seen clearly through the live stream lens.
This reason still came from Zhao Young Master; when he turned the copper emblem, although he didn't hesitate, even so, he was still three seconds late.
This reason came from the eyes of that tomb-guarding beast!
Shen Qiong and Yang Lu actually both encountered similar situations. The moment their hands touched the copper emblem, the tomb-guarding beast itself, which was in a state of squinting, suddenly became wide-eyed.
And green light emitted from its eyes!
Just the next moment, before the suspension bridge moved, the tomb-guarding beast collapsed as a whole and turned into ashes.
But both of them were busy running and didn't have any concerns. However, Zhao Young Master's hand was relatively slower; when he turned the copper emblem, the tomb-guarding beast's eyes opened just then.
And just at that moment, he felt as if his hand had been electrocuted, his whole body numb, and only then did he react to take off the copper emblem.
Precisely because of this, three seconds of time had passed!
So just as Zhang Lin said, right now they didn't have a minute and a half left; half a minute was about right.
At this time, Zhang Lin inside the Crescent Hotel couldn't help but sigh and shake his head.
Once again, it was Zhao Young Master's "more than enough to fail, less than enough to succeed," but this time it seemed no one could blame him.
Since Zhang Lin couldn't predict some things, how could Zhao Young Master?
But even so, there were still incessant curses in the live chat.
They didn't care what the real situation was; their eyes just told them that it was Zhao Young Master who made a mistake, which was why this situation occurred.
Otherwise, it should have been a happy ending where the key was taken and everyone escaped to heaven.
Since the facts were not so, they certainly had to point the finger at the person who was most prone to mistakes here.
Zhao Young Master took off the copper emblem, and although he realized his mistake, he didn't think much at this time. He hurriedly ran onto the last suspension bridge, running like a madman toward the direction where the Second Archaeological Team was.
When Wang Kaixuan and the others ran onto the suspension bridge, the several suspension bridges in front had already collapsed.
Seeing this scene, he raised his hand without hesitation and slapped Zhao Young Master directly in the face.
Zhao Young Master spun three times on the spot, feeling a bit dazed!
And at this time, he had no anger, because he felt that this slap didn't seem undeserved.
But holding his face, he still explained: "I didn't mean to, just now that..."
