66: Chapter 66 Song Yiqing's Identity Remains Mysterious!
Liang Jingcheng understood her point after listening to her words and arranged for his people to station themselves.
They waited for the complete deaths of Song Yiqing and the others on the livestream.
Not just Guo Xueyan, but Liang Jingcheng as well did not believe that Song Yiqing and his group could truly survive this crisis.
Allowing them to further weaken the Gate-Keeping Beasts before they stepped in to harvest the rewards was the most superior plan.
Many viewers in their livestream chat also began to discuss the situation.
[Smart move!! That Song Yiqing is so cold-blooded; they should definitely be the ones to scout ahead and go to their deaths first!!]
[Exactly, as expected of our Eldest Miss Guo, she is truly wise!! And have you guys noticed? After Guo Xueyan used that potion, her strength is actually on par with Song Yiqing and the others!]
[I noticed it too. Does this mean that as long as we use this potion, ordinary people like us can become like those martial arts experts?]
[Maybe in the future, we can all enter the Forbidden Zones to explore.]
[The ones who truly unravel the secrets of the Forbidden Zones might just be us!]
Within the Flying Tiger Archaeology Team,
After Song Yiqing provided a scientific explanation of the Gate-Keeping Beasts, it unsurprisingly caused waves of exclamations among the team members.
Quite a few people even began to lament that Song Yiqing hadn't joined their team.
However, at this moment, Kang Mo spoke up.
"Everyone's admiration for Song Yiqing is a bit too blind."
"Though he is very special, there are still significant issues regarding him."
"What issues?"
Shi Zhishan quickly spoke up and asked.
Kang Mo then smiled and said,
"Hehehe, Shi Zhishan, I know you have the utmost respect for the First Dean,"
"so you tend to extend that affection to those related to him."
"But in saying these words, I'm not afraid of offending anyone."
"While it's suspected that Song Yiqing is a disciple of Master Yu Lin and a descendant of the First Dean,"
"and those points aren't problematic,"
"he simply knows too much about the Gate-Keeping Beasts!"
"Assuming his explanations are all correct,"
"then as a senior university graduate who has never entered a Forbidden Zone,"
"why would he be so knowledgeable about everything inside the Forbidden Zone right upon graduation?"
"If the information regarding the Gate-Keeping Beasts were fully recorded in the Forbidden Zone exploration logs,"
"I wouldn't have such doubts."
"But on the contrary, there are no records of this information at all."
As he spoke to this point, everyone present felt a sudden sense of enlightenment and realization.
A rustle of discussion gradually rose up.
"Elder Kang's point is actually quite reasonable. No matter how you look at it, Song Yiqing is just a student who just graduated from his senior year."
"It's fundamentally impossible for him to know information that even the Forbidden Zone officials are unaware of!"
"It's too eerie. Why does Song Yiqing know so much? I feel like there's something fishy behind this."
"It really is very strange. Could it be that Song Yiqing has actually been there once? But that shouldn't be possible, right?"
Amidst the discussion, Bai Yao nervously wanted to say a few words in Song Yiqing's defense, but she couldn't squeeze out a single sentence.
At this time, Xue Xingye spoke up quickly as if seizing an opportunity.
"No! Following that line of thought, is there a possibility that Song Yiqing isn't human at all?"
"The Forbidden Zones are bizarre and unpredictable. What if there's some kind of Pseudo-human or something inside that replaced Song Yiqing?"
These words made everyone slightly stunned.
Their reaction gave Xue Xingye a small sense of satisfaction.
In addition, at this very moment on the livestream screen, Zhang Qilin and the others, who were locked in a fierce battle, were being forced to constantly shrink their defensive circle by the vast number of Gate-Keeping Beasts.
Suddenly, he felt like his period of suffering was over and his time to shine had finally come!!
But in the next second, Kang Mo spoke up again.
"What 'Pseudo-human'? Truly preposterous!"
"Uh..."
Xue Xingye was instantly choked up. In his heart, he grumbled, 'You old fogey, I'm trying to help you speak, and you actually refute me like this? What an idiot!!'
He complained frantically in his mind.
But on his face, he squeezed out a smile that looked uglier than crying.
"Hehehe, what brilliant insight does Elder Kang have?"
"Heh."
Kang Mo gave a light chuckle and then said with certainty,
"This Song Yiqing has most likely joined some underground organization, and they undoubtedly have a more in-depth understanding of the Forbidden Zones."
"In this way, the intelligence and information he possesses would be more reasonable."
"It's also for this reason that he refused to join the official Archaeological Team!"
"Because he cannot withstand an investigation!!"
These words caused everyone present to suck in a breath of cold air simultaneously.
Compared to Xue Xingye's rather groundless speculation,
Kang Mo's was undoubtedly very well-founded and perfectly logical.
Everyone looked at each other, not daring to speak.
Because they also had some guesses about the so-called 'organization' Kang Mo mentioned.
Some vermin hiding in the shadows; those fellows had made appearances in other Forbidden Zones before,
creating no small amount of chaos.
And this was putting Song Yiqing on the spot, roasting him over a fire!
Xue Xingye's internal complaints about Kang Mo stopped instantly.
Following that, a sense of high respect rose within him.
'My god! This is what you call professional!! This is being professional!!'
He continued his internal monologue.
Then, he quickly followed up by saying,
"Elder Kang is simply incisive! If Song Yiqing really is a member of that underground organization,"
"and he has already entered the depths ahead of us and found the secret of the Forbidden Zone's formation,"
"this will definitely be an absolute and major crisis!!"
He spoke excitedly, while Bai Yao, who was beside him, hurriedly said,
"Impossible! How could that be possible! How could Song Yiqing be a member of an underground organization!"
"Hehehe, what do you mean impossible?"
Xue Xingye was suddenly full of confidence.
"What evidence do you have to prove he doesn't have a problem?"
"You!!"
Bai Yao was instantly at a loss for words.
Fei Erfeng, who stood at the front of the crowd, also remained silent.
He had naturally had such speculations before,
he just didn't want to believe them.
He looked at Song Yiqing on the livestream screen, being protected by everyone, and murmured,
'Who exactly are you?'
...
On Song Yiqing's livestream screen,
Under the intense battle, the protection circle grew smaller and smaller.
Their ammunition and firepower were also gradually starting to fail at suppressing these newborn Gate-Keeping Beasts.
Fatty shouted,
"Lord Song!! You didn't say there were actually so many of these Gate-Keeping Beasts!"
"Hold your ground!"
Song Yiqing shouted. After taking several large gulps of wine and choosing to carefully consume a few layers of alcohol aura, he picked up several stones from the ground.
Then, he violently flicked them toward the caves he was still uncertain about.
Bang! Bang! Bang!!!
As the stones were thrown in succession, the high-speed stones faintly produced the sound of sonic booms.
When Lin Tianyi saw this move, his brow furrowed, and he exclaimed in surprise,
"Thunder Listening and Acupuncture Point Fixing? Lord Song, you actually know the secret technique of the Xieling?"
