Captain Zhao's eyes were filled with surprise and disbelief as Zhou Lin appeared.
Everyone was overjoyed and astonished to see Zhou Lin emerge.
"I'm alive and well, no need for you all to worry for nothing."
Zhou Lin said with a smile, then walked over to Huo Qi.
Their eyes gleamed with relief.
"Is it true you promised me five hundred thousand?"
Zhou Lin asked Huo Qi expectantly.
Huo Qi: ...
The Professor of Metaphysics: ...
The Mercenaries: ...
The Students: ...
Their earlier concerns about Zhou Lin's safety were now replaced by speechless amusement.
Had he only heard that part?
"Professor Zhou Lin, we clearly saw you fall from above, how are you alright?"
One of the students asked, puzzled.
"That was a fake, just to fool this Ghost Eye. If I didn't go down, would he have been satisfied?"
Zhou Lin replied nonchalantly.
Everyone suddenly felt their brains weren't enough. So, Professor Zhou Lin's fall earlier was just for that evil spirit, and they had been deceived?
"You were quick enough to become a fake and appear like this?"
The Professor of Metaphysics exclaimed in disbelief, his eyes wide with surprise.
"This is the most basic. As a Taoist priest, how can one survive without good martial arts?"
Zhou Lin's words echoed through the entire space, leaving everyone speechless again.
They felt...
It made a lot of sense.
In the live broadcast room.
"Wuwu, the great god is alive, that's wonderful. I thought he wouldn't appear again, wuwu, you scared me to death."
"I thought the same. I thought I would be a widow. Fortunately, the great god is still here, it's truly wonderful."
"I have to say, the great god is truly awesome. Such skill! We've been watching the great god in action all along, and we didn't even notice he had switched to a fake."
"Where are the people from Sakura Country who said the great god was doomed? Come out, I promise I won't beat you to death. Come on, come out."
"You didn't mention it, and I almost forgot. Where are the people who said the great god wouldn't make it? Come out, let's see if my saliva can reach you. Come on, I'll curse you to death."
...
In the Dean's conference room.
"Phew... only money can make Zhou Lin speak up."
Professor Hu's mouth twitched. His previous concern instantly vanished with Zhou Lin's behavior.
He had thought it was a pity for someone so young to be gone, but in the next second, it turned out like this. Truly...
"Uh... as long as he's alive, nothing else matters."
Professor Wen also felt extremely speechless after seeing the scene before him.
The Dean and the other professors and experts also twitched their mouths. Being greedy for money wasn't bad, at least he was alive.
As long as he's alive, nothing else is important.
"By the way, has the curse been resolved?"
Professor Wen suddenly remembered something and hurriedly asked.
"It should be. After all, the Ghost Eye has been dealt with, and the Queen is gone. It should be resolved."
Professor Hu added from the side.
Everyone felt it was likely resolved and breathed a sigh of relief.
On the internet in Great Xia.
Hu Hu Sheng Wei App: Shocking!!! The ultimate secret of the Demon Kingdom is revealed, the Queen was merely a pawn being manipulated???
Xiao Ming Has Something to Say: The novelist concealed his actions and successfully resolved the crisis.
Bai Ke Bai Jia: The Ghost Eye of the Demon Kingdom actually needed an eye. Then where did the novelist's 'eye' come from? Why didn't the Ghost Eye discover this secret?
Han Dou Video: How was the Dragon Eye obtained? What other secrets does the novelist possess that others don't know!!!
More comments appeared below the video section.
"The great god's abilities are vast and profound. He could even obtain the Dragon Eye and trick the Ghost Eye. Isn't that amazing?"
"Exactly, the great god is my idol. I'm a man, otherwise, I would want to marry the great god and have him support me."
"I'm a woman, but I'm rich. As long as the great god is willing, I'm willing to support him for a lifetime, mainly if he's willing."
"You guys saying this makes it sound like the great god is a kept man?"
"Others might think that, but if it were the great god, I wouldn't think that way, absolutely not."
"Haha, me too. But I think someone like the great god would never be in such a situation. He'd rather starve to death than do that."
...
Overseas.
Eagle Country:
"This, I'm speechless. It's the first time I've seen such skill. I admit, our Eagle Country can't compare, at least we don't have that Dragon Eye."
"Come on, just because it's called a Dragon Eye means it is one? This Ghost Eye is blind, maybe it was mistaken. This eye must have been manipulated by Zhou Lin. How could it be natural?"
"These things can all be explained by science, not as magical as the legends say."
Sakura Country:
"We don't believe in any Dragon Eye. We're only concerned if our professors can break the curse. Great Xia should be responsible to us. If the curse isn't broken, you'll have to compensate us."
"That's right. Now we're only concerned about the safety of our professors. So much money was spent on this trip, there's no reason for the money to be gone and their lives too, right?"
"Great Xia has acquired a lot of good things this time. You shouldn't be short of money. There's no reason for you to want money and also want lives?"
Great Cold Country:
"You guys are just jealous. People from Sakura Country, you're sour because you can't have it, right? The people of Great Xia peacefully resolved this problem this time because they are capable, not something you guys can compare to."
"But I think Great Xia should share the spoils. This tomb is a huge harvest, and we've all watched with great interest. Shouldn't there be some rewards? Consider it as paying for water armies."
"That's true. Great Xia isn't short of money. There's no reason to just let us watch. After all, this can be considered a shared gain."
Great Xia:
"People from Eagle Country, your narrow-mindedness is inherent. You lack vision and can't learn even if you try. Even if you were born a hundred years earlier, you wouldn't have seen such things, so we understand your blindness."
"People from Sakura Country, you're concerned about your professors now? Why weren't you this excited before? If you're so capable, why didn't you participate in the archaeology? Don't say Great Xia wants money, even if it's lives, you have to watch and endure, understand?"
