Chapter 658: They all got their throats slit

A snake as thick as a water bucket, Lin Feng stabbed it until it looked like a beehive.

The fresh blood that flowed out collected in the low spots on the ground, forming a pool of blood.

Of course, the giant snake's corpse couldn't just be left like that.

Qi Yao picked up the scalpel and began to dissect the giant snake.

Ouyang Moli and Tang Mi also ran over to help.

Soon, the giant snake was cut to pieces.

"What is this?"

Ouyang Moli pulled from under the snake's belly two side‑by‑side organs, each over a meter long, from the giant snake's body.

Ouyang Moli and Tang Mi felt uneasy about this; they put on a rough demeanor, clearly trying to impress Qi Yao.

Lin Feng even felt embarrassed to speak of these two women.

Qi Yao glanced at what Ouyang Moli held and said lightly, "It's a good thing; take it back, dry it, and soak it in liquor for your husband."

"Uh~"

Ouyang Moli was stunned.

Then she asked Tang Mi for a plastic bag and put the thing inside.

"What is this, boss?"

Tang Mi asked curiously.

Qi Yao said lightly, "Good stuff!"

Lin Feng would have liked to answer, but since Qi Yao stayed silent, he didn't speak either.

Qi Yao had finished collecting, placing the test tube with the giant snake specimen into the box.

After clearing the Illusion Realm and the giant beast stages, they walked forward along the cave for a distance.

Suddenly the flashlight beam spread out.

Before them appeared a more spacious underground space.

In the cave stood densely packed bronze‑gold alloy statues over five meters tall.

In the flashlight's light, the statues also reflected a golden glow.

Gold really is the most stable metal!

The pure gold parts have not corroded even to this day.

"Wow~ It's all made of gold!"

Tang Mi looked shocked.

Ouyang Moli's eyes also shone.

This bronze‑gold statue weighs at least ten‑plus tons and can yield at least five tons of pure gold.

"How many are there here?"

"One, two, three, four…"

As they walked forward, Ouyang Moli counted.

"What are you counting for! Quickly take out the drone from your bag!" Tang Mi reminded.

Ouyang Moli reacted and immediately put down her backpack.

She took out the drone stored in a metal box.

Strictly speaking, it was a swarm of drones.

Each the size of a thumb, there were thirty‑six in the box.

Ouyang Moli took them out one by one and pressed a button on each.

Next she took out a laptop, opened the control software, and clicked on it.

Thirty‑six small drones flew into the air and then dispersed.

After ten or so minutes, the laptop displayed a diagram of the entire underground space.

The number of bronze‑gold statues also appeared.

Exactly ten thousand and eight bronze‑gold statues.

That's over fifty thousand tons of gold!

"Fifty thousand tons of gold—how much money is that!"

When Ouyang Moli said this, her voice trembled a little.

Lin Feng said lightly, "It might be more; we could extract over sixty thousand tons of gold. At today's price, one ton of gold is forty million dollars—how much money would that be?"

"Two hundred forty billion dollars!"

Tang Mi calculated it right away.

"Over two hundred billion dollars!"

This isn't paper printed by Americans; it's gold.

The funds that could be moved by these tens of thousands of tons of gold are certainly not just over two hundred billion!

Selling this gold directly would be foolish.

Its purpose should be a strategic‑level financial instrument!

At this point Lin Feng even regretted having sold so much gold earlier.

But back then he didn't know he could obtain so much gold!

The drone's footage showed not only the statues; it also revealed a carved stone gate.

"Pack it up! Let's go inside to have a look—there might be something even more impressive."

Lin Feng said with a smile.

Ouyang Moli immediately put away the drone.

This is a huge piece of good news.

Unfortunately, we currently can't communicate with the outside world.

There's a magnetic field inside this mountain; signals can't get out.

Otherwise, the first step should be to send robots and drones in to explore.

The four packed up, walked several kilometers among the dense bronze statues, and finally arrived at a stone gate.

Lin Feng stepped forward and pushed; the stone gate opened.

Pssh~

A blast of cold air rushed over them.

The four's eyes lit up as well.

What appeared before them was a sci-fi scene.

Inside really resembled a space cabin from a sci-fi movie.

It should be called a main cabin.

The cabin is over ten meters wide, with bulkheads on both sides, lined with… sleep pods over three meters tall.

The sleep pods are transparent, with two tubes extending from the pod heads, inside stand giants over three meters tall.

"There really are Witch Tribe members!"

Lin Feng sighed.

There are men and women.

Meichuan's clothing makes one feel rather shy!

Qi Yao took out a scalpel from her pocket.

She opened the first sleep pod near the door and slit the throat of the Witch Tribe giant inside.

The Witch Tribe man whose throat was cut, due to excessive blood loss, quickly drooped his head.

Those not of our kind must have different hearts!

Lin Feng fully understood Qi Yao's approach.

One, two, three…

In total, twenty-four Witch Tribe giants had their throats slit by Qi Yao in this way, losing their lives while asleep.

Ouyang Moli and Tang Mi watched, hearts pounding.

What does "killing without blinking an eye" mean? It's right before our eyes!

As expected of a forensic doctor, this method is truly ruthless!

Seeing the last Witch Tribe member lower his head, Tang Mi and Ouyang Moli both felt an illusion, as if their own necks turned icy cold.

This ruthless person must never be offended in the future!

After checking the entire cave and finding no other chambers, Tang Mi, the fastest runner, went out for a trip.

Next, Zhao Xiaoyang and Liu Erwa brought in a large group of people.

Qi Yao summoned Liu Erwa to the cabin and said, "Burn all these witch demons, but remember not to destroy these things inside the cabin—they're high-tech."

"Yes!"

After Liu Erwa saluted Qi Yao, he went off to make arrangements.

From then on, it had nothing to do with Qi Yao.

In the box she carried, she had collected the blood of each Witch Tribe member.

Originally, bringing back these Witch Tribe corpses would have had greater research value.

But Qi Yao didn't plan to do that, as she didn't want any accidents.

Leaving the cave, Qi Yao and Lin Feng came to the surface.

It was just early morning; the sun hadn't risen yet.

The two stood on a sand dune, blowing in the cool wind, gazing at the moon that hadn't yet disappeared in the sky.

Qi Yao murmured, "There are still more Witch Tribe members on the moon..."
