135: Chapter 135: Not cooperating with the official authorities was truly a rather irrational decision.

When Lu Ziliang mentioned the Kyoto University of Archaeology, Shi Yao sighed, "Sigh, but some things cannot be prevented just because someone is pulling strings behind the scenes."

Shi Yao's thinking was very stubborn, with quite a bit of a 'ten cows couldn't pull him back' attitude, "With his level of strength, if he really wanted to join our official Archaeological Team, he would only need to make it known. How could there be a situation where he couldn't join? When it comes down to it, he just isn't of the same mind."

"Stop bickering, it's giving me a headache."

Lu Ziliang told the other party to shut up with a headache, and at the same time, he was following the map from the 'Queens Palace murals' to find the passage to leave the side hall.

[Holy cow, Song Yiqing actually refused again?? His temper is really tough!]

[But honestly, refusing is fine, what's up with this Shi Yao? Targeting him on purpose, right? Just because he didn't agree, you're here fuming? It's truly ridiculous!]

[But it has to be Wang Xianzhi! She's too honest, she couldn't stand the anger and just drew her sword; at worst, we'll just have another fight.]

[But I still feel that Song Yiqing's choice this time was a bit too impulsive. He must still have some grudges against the Archaeological Team because of the Kyoto University of Archaeology incident, but actually, such things aren't a big deal, right? Still too childish.]

[To the person above, try being a human for once! If you had the strength and intended to serve, but then someone came and snatched your spot, wouldn't you be angry? Do you really think everyone is a saint?]

[Classic! Classic!! Don't use the standards of a saint to judge others here. Song Yiqing is a human after all. Furthermore, what he is doing now, what difference does it make whether he joins the official team or not? Don't engage in moral kidnapping!]

[Exactly, is it necessary to have some official supervisor pointing fingers and giving a bunch of useless opinions just to solve a Forbidden Area? It's been so many years, and only Song Yiqing and his team have wiped out a Forbidden Area! This is the best proof of their capability!]

Inside the boardroom of the Xue Group, Wei Chengjun sat at the head of the table, watching everything on the live stream screen, and let out a faint chuckle, "Separated? This actually gives them a great opportunity."

"Them?" Xue Heng was on the side, occasionally reporting on the current situation of some experiments and the sales of the potions, so he was also watching the live stream. Now, hearing Wei Chengjun's words, he narrowed his eyes slightly and guessed, "Elder Wei, could it be that you mean to say that Zhe Ningchuan is the means you left behind?"

"Hehehehe," Wei Chengjun did not answer but just shook his head slightly, "Keep watching, the good show has already begun."

"This..." Xue Heng wanted to say more but hesitated; in the end, he nodded and turned his gaze back to the live stream screen. However, he received a message in his pocket, which was also displayed on his watch, [Target has escaped, only a note was left in the rental room, with a line written on it: 'You are doomed to lose'.]

Meanwhile, on the Wild Wolf Archaeological Expedition live stream, their group was still looking for the way. However, because of the map, it was a bit easier to find. "Hehehe," Shi Yao laughed at this time, "Elder Lu, it seems they haven't caught up yet; they must have taken the wrong path. Not cooperating with the official team is truly an unwise decision."

"..." Lu Ziliang glanced at him, "They were the ones who discovered the map. Why would you think they can't find the correct path? Perhaps, the path we are looking for is the wrong one."

"Uh..." Shi Yao hesitated, "That shouldn't be right, isn't the map's route like this? This corridor should be the path deeper in, right?"

"Hard to say, we need to study it further." Lu Ziliang did not give a definitive answer but was rather ambiguous. At the same time, he looked at the map more carefully, trying to find some clues from it.

And at this moment, Ding Sixing suddenly spoke up, "Strange, why have Zhe Ningchuan and the others disappeared?"

"Hmm?" Lu Ziliang frowned. He also realized that Zhe Ningchuan and the others had been missing since just now. For a moment, a bad thought arose in his heart.

Suddenly, a relatively intense sound of fighting came from afar. "Oh no!! Quick!! Everyone!! Quick!!" Lu Ziliang shouted loudly, and then he was the first to rush in the direction they had come from.

[Ahhh? What's the situation? Could Zhe Ningchuan and the others be people from Penglai? So their disappearance now actually means they went to kill Song Yiqing and the others?]

[Damn!! If that's really the case, the possibility is very high!]

[I knew these three people of unknown origin were a bit wrong. Now that I think about it, it's true!! They are definitely not right!!]

[Let's not talk about that foreigner for now; the combat power of this Zhe Ningchuan and Li Jun is quite fierce, not a bit weaker than Wang Xianzhi! And now that Song Yiqing has no way to fight, then could it be that...]

[Damn! Stop talking, person above! If you keep talking, my head is going to split open!]

Meanwhile, where Song Yiqing and the others were, they were originally resting in place, and Song Yiqing was digesting the rewards he obtained after killing the monster.

[Challenge Task: Kill the Shadow Demon Beast, completed, obtained SSS-level reward Senro Bansho]

This skill belongs to the mental category and is currently the only active attack skill in Song Yiqing's hands. Casting Senro Bansho can cause the target object to become mentally confused and occasionally experience various hallucinations.

But the real wonderful use is not just making it experience hallucinations, but causing its cognition to change. This depends on what level the caster can achieve.

It was just when Song Yiqing was digesting this ability that, from all directions, three-inch Blue-faced Buddha Men suddenly sprang out. However, this was different from what was seen on Guo Xueyan before.

These Blue-faced Buddha Men seemed very low-intelligence, only knowing how to attack continuously, but it had to be admitted that their lethality was also quite fierce.

Wang Xianzhi and Zhang Qilin were also finding it hard to fight so many opponents with their own two hands; the increasing number of Blue-faced Buddha Men was making them more and more exhausted.

However, Song Yiqing was not panicked. He was still waiting, waiting for the real good show to appear. As for these Blue-faced Buddha Men, he couldn't help but have some guesses; perhaps in this Black Sand Great Buddha Temple, he could solve the mystery on Guo Xueyan.

And just at this moment, Lu Ziliang's voice immediately rang out, "Protect Song Yiqing!! Protect Song Yiqing!! Absolutely cannot let him get hurt!!"

Immediately after, the special forces soldiers quickly began to enter the scene. Although their individual combat power was relatively limited, they were still able to achieve firepower suppression with their guns and ammunition, and invisibly surrounded Song Yiqing in the middle.
