Chapter 1837 - 1836: There’s Actually a Magic Artifact!

Soon, an unusual sound came from within the cave, along with flickering lights.

"What’s going on? Is there anything happening inside?"

Someone asked worriedly.

Green Corpse waved his hand and said, "It should be those glowing butterflies and insects inside, frightened by the Big Poison Bee and wanting to escape, hence the bright glow."

"And what’s with the ’sizzling’ sound?"

Someone asked again.

"This..."

Green Corpse rubbed his chin, unsure how to explain, finally waved his hand and said, "Relax! There are at least over four hundred Big Poison Bees inside. No matter how tough those three are, they can’t handle the Big Poison Bees. We just need to wait here."

"That’s right. No matter what’s happening inside, they can’t possibly deal with so many Big Poison Bees!"

"..."

Everyone was absolutely confident in this.

After all, this place is different from the outside world; any magic is ineffective here.

Time passed little by little.

The cave slowly quieted down.

The effect of the Magic Artifact Blood Spider Web gradually faded.

"It’s been almost an hour, right?" Green Corpse said, "Seems like the three of them are done for inside, hehe..."

"The Blood Spider Web is about to disappear, let’s hide first and wait for the Big Poison Bees to fly away before entering." Kuang Long said.

Everyone immediately hid to the sides of the cave.

Soon, the Blood Spider Web at the entrance disappeared.

Hiding at the sides, Green Corpse and the others couldn’t help but be puzzled.

"Huh? Where are the Big Poison Bees?"

"Could they still think the entrance is sealed?"

"..."

Finally, Green Corpse and Kuang Long exchanged a glance and said, "Why don’t we go take a look?"

Kuang Long also found it odd, "Alright!"

The two got up and headed to the entrance.

Unexpectedly.

Just as they were about to go inside, three figures suddenly emerged from within!!

"What?!!"

As they clearly saw it was Qin Feng, Ding Lan, and Shuang’er, Green Corpse and Kuang Long’s pupils shrank immediately in shock!

"Hi!"

Qin Feng smiled and greeted them, "Two of you, what kind of expressions are these?"

"Uh, uh..."

The two were completely bewildered, rubbed their eyes hard, confirmed it wasn’t an illusion, and asked in astonishment, "You, you didn’t die?"

"Die? Why would we die?"

Qin Feng spread his hands.

"But weren’t there four hundred Big Poison Bees inside!!"

The two pressed on.

"Yeah! But now they’ve all been exterminated." Qin Feng shrugged, then took out a Qiankun Bag with a smile, "Each Big Poison Bee has ten Poison Needles, altogether 4,320 Poison Needles, all right here."

"What?!!!"

The two were stunned again, "How did you do it? Just relying on the strength of three people, you exterminated those over four hundred Big Poison Bees??"

"Thanks to your antidote."

Qin Feng smiled and said, "To be honest, over four hundred Big Poison Bees shooting Poison Needles simultaneously, it’s impossible not to be poisoned. Fortunately, we had your antidote, which allowed us to hang on, then use the Thunderstorm Pearl to wipe them all out at once."

"Thunderstorm Pearl?!!"

The two were hit by a shock like a bolt from the blue.

No matter how they calculated, they didn’t foresee them having such a large-scale destructive Magic Artifact!

Which meant the plan was completely gone up in smoke!!

"How did you think of purchasing Thunderstorm Pearl?!" Green Corpse was almost in tears.

In his understanding, a Thunderstorm Pearl costs one million Spirit Stones, while killing one Big Poison Bee earns only ten thousand Spirit Stones. Without using this "attracting monsters" method, using Thunderstorm Pearl to kill Big Poison Bees is a huge loss; only a fool would spend one million Spirit Stones on Magic Artifacts like Thunderstorm Pearl.

Unexpectedly, Qin Feng and his team actually bought it!!

Of course.

This was also their fault; they hadn’t considered the "attracting monsters" method, only intended to "attract monsters" to deal with Qin Feng.

"Got to say, thank you so much!"

Qin Feng smiled again, "Thanks for finding such a cave that can hold over four hundred Big Poison Bees. In my plan, using one Thunderstorm Pearl to eliminate two hundred would’ve satisfied. But trapping them here, exterminating over four hundred at once, saves time and effort. Now it’s a true profit."

"..."

Green Corpse, Kuang Long, and the over two hundred who followed were completely speechless.

Each one’s face turned ashen, unable to utter a word.

Qin Feng took a step forward at this moment, squinted his eyes, with a sharp aura completely different from the previous smile, and said, "You all look like you’re not happy to see us come out! Or... were you planning to use Big Poison Bees to eliminate us?!"

Upon this remark, Green Corpse and the others felt a chill inside, hurriedly shook their heads and waved their hands: "No, no, no, how could we?? We absolutely didn’t have such thoughts! We, we... just admire Lord Qin for being so incredible, to earn so much at once!"

"Yeah! That’s a profit of over four million Spirit Stones right away, excluding the one hundred Spirit Stone cost of the Thunderstorm Pearl, netting over three million!!"

"..."

Qin Feng squinted his eyes even more, then said in a deep voice, "But, why did you all escape just now, leaving only us three inside?"

Green Corpse, Kuang Long and the others were drenched in cold sweat, trembling and said, "Well, that’s because, because... we thought you would use the Invisibility Talisman to escape like us..."

"Oh? Is that so?"

Qin Feng raised an eyebrow, "We agreed to fight Big Poison Bees together and collect Poison Needles, how come you thought of escaping?"

"Th-this..."

Green Corpse had no idea how to explain, hurriedly looked at Kuang Long.

Kuang Long even more clueless about what to say.

If they really fought, Qin Feng could totally beat them half to death, then throw them onto Ti Yun Peak, then it would be them who would die...

Everyone was frantic, unable to think of a reason.

Just then, Qin Feng’s tone suddenly changed, grinned, and said, "I think I remember now, did you guys whistle when you left? Wasn’t that the signal to retreat from the cave?"

"..."

Green Corpse’s legs went soft, sweat dripping from his forehead.

If only they had let Kuang Long whistle.

There’s no choice.

Green Corpse couldn’t hold out, wanted to admit and apologize.

Just at this moment.

Qin Feng suddenly "Oh"ed, then said, "I was dumb for not hearing your signal, so it’s not your fault."

"Ah??"

Green Corpse was stunned.

Kuang Long was stunned too.

The others were all confused and clueless.

"Oh? Wasn’t it?"

Qin Feng asked.

Green Corpse realized, face beamed with joy, hurriedly said, "Right, right, right, we whistled back then as the retreat signal, already informed you!"

"Exactly, really wasn’t us escaping ourselves, also because of you!"

"..."

The stone in everyone’s hearts finally eased a little.

They weren’t foolish.

Realized Qin Feng was possibly giving them a way out.

Whether truly giving a way out or not, finally, they managed to keep their dignity...
