86: The four characters on the door read: "Intruders shall die."
[Heh! That was outside, but it might not be the case now. If Ye Bai wants him dead, he'll have to die here. Status means nothing here.]
[Exactly. With that kind of attitude, how can things be good once they get out? His fans will all be gone. He's just an ungrateful idiot. Is there no one left in the entertainment industry? They brought them out just to make fools of themselves!]
Seeing that they were all safe, the viewers' bullet comments flashed rapidly across the screen.
Meanwhile, the professors from the School of Biology who were following them also breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Ye Bai's skills were extraordinary; otherwise, they all would have died here.
"Ye Bai really never disappoints."
"It's lucky that Ye Bai is so capable. If it were anyone else, I'm afraid they wouldn't have made it."
"You mean those celebrities? They'd just be waiting for death, especially Cai Xukun. He's completely brainless. Can't people in the entertainment industry have some brains nowadays? This is a Tomb. Even we, who aren't part of the Archaeological Team, know how dangerous it is. Don't these people stop to think?"
As the professors thought about Cai Xukun's various antics, they felt a deep disgust for these so-called little fresh meats.
They hadn't done anything useful this whole way; all they did was cause trouble.
They were so cowardly, only knowing how to blame others without ever recognizing their own mistakes.
Professor Han, Xiao Song, and the others also had their brows furrowed. How did these entertainment companies find such people? What could they possibly achieve with this kind of behavior?
At this moment, the management agencies for Zhang Dada and Cai Xukun were also in a frantic state.
They had originally thought that by getting them onto this show, their popularity would soar. Now, instead of the scene they had hoped for, they were watching them make fools of themselves.
Not only was there no positive buzz, but their follower counts were plummeting. Their popularity on Weibo and Douyin had dropped, and even previously signed contracts were being canceled.
Cai Xukun's manager had a massive headache. This kid was truly useless and never ceased to cause worry.
Just then—
The manager's phone rang. Seeing the number, the manager's heart skipped a beat.
Cai Xukun was in for it now; the big boss was calling.
With a trembling hand, the manager pressed the answer button.
"Look at the person you're managing. What kind of trash is this? He's truly an embarrassment to me."
"Boss, this might be a misunderstanding. After all, Kun Kun has never experienced anything bad before. He was just frightened this time."
Cai Xukun's manager hurriedly tried to smooth things over.
"A misunderstanding? His previous contracts are all being canceled now, and you're still telling me it's a misunderstanding? If Cai Xukun continues to act this brainless, we'll terminate the contract immediately."
Without letting the manager speak again, the other party hung up the phone.
The manager became even more anxious.
Things weren't any better for Zhang Dada; his manager was facing similar pressure.
After all, Zhang Dada's behavior had already caused him to lose fans. Although most of his followers were anti-fans, how could he survive in the entertainment industry with only anti-fans?
Now that this had happened... just thinking about it was irritating. Zhang Dada's manager began to regret letting him participate in this event.
Inside the Tomb.
The group arrived at the entrance of a Passage, which happened to correspond to the area behind the High Priest's chair.
However, on the side of the entrance, four large, bloody characters appeared. In the already eerie Tomb, these four characters had appeared out of nowhere, dripping with fresh blood.
Anyone who saw them would feel a sinister chill.
Wu Jing, Yang Mi, and the others all shivered in unison. Although they couldn't read them, they could tell from the shape of the characters that they weren't saying anything good.
They might even be words of threat.
"Ye Bai, what do these four characters mean?"
Reba looked at the four characters timidly, then turned to look at Ye Bai.
"Death to Intruders!"
Ye Bai explained calmly.
When the group heard those four words, they were stunned.
An inexplicable chill even surged from the soles of their feet to the tops of their heads.
Did they really have to enter this door?
These four large characters were clearly etched in their minds; it was hard to ignore them.
"Um... do we really have to go in? Can we just not go?"
Zhang Dada stood up, terrified. This journey had been just like a sci-fi movie; the more he thought about it, the more scared he became. If they really went in, he feared they would encounter things even more terrifying than what they had seen before.
"Yeah! Isn't this a warning to future generations? It's forbidding us from entering. Why don't we just wait for the Archaeological Team and the Search and Rescue Team?"
Hua Chenyu also nodded repeatedly. After all, they weren't a professional Archaeological Team. Why were they here taking risks?
"Right, right, right, Hua Hua is right. Let's just wait for the people from the Archaeological Team."
"Mhm, mhm."
Huang Zitao and Cai Xukun also nodded hurriedly. There was no absolute need to go in.
Wu Jing and Yang Mi also began to hesitate. Perhaps they shouldn't go in, since they weren't part of the Archaeological Team... Reba, Bai Lu, Meng Ziyi, and Yang Chaoyue all gradually huddled closer to Ye Bai, as if they only felt safe by his side.
This was the only way to survive.
Ye Bai felt the girls drawing near and felt helpless inside.
What is all this?
Could you not hold on so tight? Bai Lu, don't press your body so close to my arm!!
The viewers in the Live Stream Room were temporarily in no mood to focus on the celebrities' situation; instead, they were all staring at the four characters on the door.
[Holy crap! This is simply terrifying. I looked up and saw those four words, and it gave me a fright.]
[Young brother Ye Bai said those four words mean 'Death to Intruders.' That means there might be other dangers ahead. This isn't just a hint; it's a warning.]
[Then why go in? Don't go in. You might encounter other dangers if you do. It's better to wait. This time, I think Zhang Dada has a point.]
[Yeah! It's not because I'm scared; I just feel bad for young brother Ye Bai, having to carry a bunch of dead weight all by himself—and several of them are pretty useless!]
[Let's not talk about that now. I think it's better to wait for the Archaeological Team. When the Search and Rescue Team arrives, at least they'll have weapons for protection!!]
Just as the viewers were agreeing with the little fresh meats' decision, a familiar bullet comment appeared at the top of the screen again.
[I am Professor Wang from the Archaeology Academy. Our Archaeological Team has already set out. According to the information we've received, many Tomb-robbing organizations have already headed for the Forbidden Ground. You may enter the interior of the Tomb at your discretion; we will rush there as quickly as possible.]
The red bullet comment appeared in the Live Stream Room, and when the viewers saw it, everyone was shocked.
Before they could even recover from their shock, the Production Team also sent a message.
[Considering the safety of the guests, the Production Team has already invited a team of Mercenaries to help the guests explore the Tomb and prevent other forces from damaging cultural relics or taking away the treasures of the Great Xia Tomb. You must hold on, but it's best to go in and take a look, as time is very tight.]
