"Although the methods weren't ideal, it was better than waiting to die. Fortunately, it was just in time."
"But will these bullets be effective against these children? Will this work?"
"No matter what, it's stable for now. We'll figure something out later."
...
Inside the tomb.
However, this situation only lasted a few minutes. The mother of the child being threatened could no longer control herself. Her fingernails instantly grew sharp and she lunged towards the captain.
Just then—
"Ah, luckily my shears were fast enough, otherwise, someone would have been killed."
Zhou Lin's casual voice instantly arrived, bringing a strong sense of security to everyone's minds.
The biologist, Old Tang, the Taoist priest, the Olympic champion, the gymnastics champion, and the historian all turned their gazes towards Zhou Lin.
The terror and tension in their eyes instantly melted away.
"Little friend Zhou Lin?"
Old Tang called out excitedly.
Zhou Lin turned around and gave a cool glance.
He hadn't made a move earlier because he was selecting suitable weapons on the electronic page and carefully recalling how this situation came about.
He hadn't expected to see such a scene when he came back to his senses. Fortunately, everything was just in time, otherwise, many people would have died.
"Mr. Zhou Lin..."
As the captain watched this scene, his eyes were filled with hope.
"Sorry to have scared you all. Old Tang, if I were to make a move, how much do you think would be a fair price?"
Zhou Lin turned to look at Old Tang, a smile on his lips.
"Two million. After it's resolved, I'll apply for it for you. What do you say?"
Old Tang realized for the first time that even when Zhou Lin was being greedy, he was still reassuring. If these people could be saved for two million, it would be worth it.
Nothing was more precious than them.
"Deal."
Zhou Lin first glanced at the children, who were starting to open their mouths and cry, which was truly annoying.
Then he thought of the drum he had seen earlier.
Zhou Lin gritted his teeth and spent five hundred million to exchange for this red drum, which also came with two drumsticks.
It then appeared before everyone as if by magic.
Before anyone could be surprised, Zhou Lin, without a second thought, picked up the drumsticks and began to strike.
Dong dong dong!!!
The three beats of the drumsticks struck the red drum, and the sound echoed throughout the stone cave.
The children, upon hearing the drum sound, stopped crying abruptly. They stared blankly at Zhou Lin before them, and with their short legs, they walked towards Zhou Lin.
The women who had been worried about their children suddenly tensed up as they watched their children approach the enemy.
They tried to wake them up internally, but it was all to no avail.
"You don't need to think about it. This drum is called the Heavenly Spirit Drum. Among all things in the world, children have the greatest spirituality, so they are used by me. Even if you are the birth mothers of these children, it's the same, it's useless."
Zhou Lin saw them anxiously trying to call out and took the initiative to explain.
Zhou Lin ignored the way the women looked at him and then looked at the children beside him, who smelled foul and had been nourished by the hearts of many.
If they grew up, they would surely be a disaster.
"Go away, don't come near me."
Zhou Lin kicked one of the children away in disgust. The child fell to the ground but did not cry.
The women opposite them had their eyes red and looked at him with murderous intent.
It wasn't just the women who were angry; even those standing behind them were shocked.
The student who had his heart taken earlier was an accident, but Zhou Lin was doing this intentionally.
The netizens who saw this also felt a tremor in their hearts.
"Holy crap, that scared me to death. Isn't the boss doing this on the verge of death? This is truly terrifying. Will these women kill the boss?"
"Don't say it. I still can't forget the scene just now. Who wouldn't be terrified seeing this?"
"The boss is too brave, this is a direct confrontation."
"Is the boss fully prepared, which is why he's so brave?"
"Probably."
...
Inside the tomb.
The child sitting on the ground seemed unfazed and continued to approach Zhou Lin.
Seeing this, Zhou Lin cast a triumphant glance at the women.
"Your umbilical cords look disgusting. Cut them off, won't you?"
After Zhou Lin finished speaking, the drumsticks in his hand sounded again.
Dong!!
As the drum sounded, the children bared their teeth and reached out to take their umbilical cords, about to bite them off.
The women opposite became frantic.
They all looked at Zhou Lin, no longer caring about the previous threats, their fingernails growing longer.
They swarmed forward together, flying towards Zhou Lin.
Seeing this, Zhou Lin took out the large shears he had earlier.
"You'd better be quick, or I'll hit you later."
With that, Zhou Lin rushed forward with the large shears towards the women opposite.
Zhou Lin exerted force with his feet, leaped forward, and cut off the fingernails on the women's hands one by one.
The sound of "kaching kaching" instantly echoed, along with the sound of fingernails falling to the ground.
Old Tang and Professor Lin and the others behind him looked at Zhou Lin and then at the fingernails on the ground.
Each of them was black and shiny, with a cold glint surging on them.
"Little friend Zhou Lin is truly amazing. The speed at which these shears opened is incredible. If it were me, I'm afraid I would have been killed by these fingernails before I could even open them."
Old Tang's eyes were filled with shock and surprise as he watched this scene.
The Taoist priest, historian, and others behind him agreed, especially seeing the fingernails being cut off, which was very satisfying.
It was these fingernails that had killed their students before, and seeing them now filled them with hatred.
The children's sharp teeth bit off the umbilical cords from their bellies, and then they lay on the ground motionless.
Having lost contact with their children, the women's eyes were filled with rage, and they looked at him with great resentment.
"Yaaah..."
The women screamed wildly. Their white clothes had now turned red, their bloodshot eyes instantly became blood-red, and their mouths began to sprout teeth.
And they were extremely sharp.
Zhou Lin felt the change in the women's emotions, sneered, and took a few steps back,
standing in front of everyone.
Then he saw that the women were no longer hanging, but were dressed in red, their black hair extending to their chests.
Their eyes flashed with a cold, red glint.
