Chapter 1648: Chapter 1643: Open for Business on the Spot
That’s why you should never underestimate a person’s survival instinct.
As for everyone’s reaction, Fu Qian naturally wore an appreciative look.
Unity in the face of adversity has its prerequisites.
First, the difficulty cannot lead to despair; second, the team can replenish their blood bars.
But unfortunately here, the rules only allow decrease, not increase, turning the blood bar blatantly into a single-person attribute.
Every drop lost clearly signifies a diminished hope of survival.
Simply consuming stamina is still manageable, but once it involves conflict, the foundational ability of six people to form a team is no longer there, only a slight inertia remains.
Of course, even this bit of inertia is now teetering.
“Do you think we don’t know the difference between importance? If we don’t deal with you first, being backstabbed by you later will only make the chance of escape slimr.”
Even with Le Zhan trying hard to salvage the situation.
“Makes sense, so go ahead.”
Fu Qian had no intention of arguing, casually made an invitational gesture.
…
The imagined thunderous rage outbreak didn’t occur, Le Zhan rely glanced behind and quietly withdrew his urging gaze.
Because not a single person acknowledged it, they subconsciously looked elsewhere.
Ms. Miranda, standing nearby, involuntarily kept a little distance from the rest of the team, again confirming the previous suspicions about the team atmosphere.
It was apparent that she had lost confidence in Huang Lezhan’s persuasion power and was no longer willing to do the superficial work.
Though this didn’t an Huang Lezhan’s words didn’t make sense.
An irreversible peril, a suddenly appearing stranger, especially since there was already soone missing before, the threat here deserved any level of attention.
So theoretically, eliminating this risk indeed had its significance, for everyone.
But the only issue is, if really wanting to push forward sothing good for everyone, Brother Le Zhan needs to take the lead.
A substantial demonstration capable of breaking the equilibrium is quite necessary at this ti.
Unfortunately, this Red Stick did not draw the stick after all.
“So how long have you been digging?”
Given this, Fu Qian casually intensified his inquiry, directly consulting for more details.
“About… half an hour.”
This ti, with a deeper understanding of the current situation, the people finally did not remain as silent as gold like before.
The one Fu Qian had his eye on, who was busy in the deepest part of the cave earlier, gave the answer after only a mont’s hesitation.
There was even no move to seek help or consultation from the surroundings.
Aside from being covered in dust, this person was holding a tool resembling a double-layered wheel.
The two wheels could be moved misaligned, if not mistaken, he was pressing it against the rock, exerting special force through vigorous rotation, shattering the rock like tofu.
Clearly an Extraordinary Item, skilled at moving mountains and relocating ridges.
Earlier, the group was probably taking turns operating it to dig for a survival path, since it operated relatively quietly, not producing exaggerated noises.
This already shows significantly the preparatory work the rescue team did as ntioned before.
Yet simultaneously, the ongoing inadequacy of preparation is equally evident.
For instance, the most direct observation— the wheel’s diater is clearly the standard for bicycles of children under ten.
Perhaps suitable for simple wall-breaking, but for seriously digging a path through rock piles, it’s far from being unrestrained.
Of course, most critically, there’s one point that doesn’t even need to be ntioned—
Even if the direction is correct, and there are no special spatial anomalies, it’s hard to say they wouldn’t encounter so unseen obstruction halfway through the digging.
This pessimistic expectation is too easy to envision, which is likely why, despite being in action, there’s still little hope reflected on their faces.
“Well, your progress is decent. So you passed through that room full of mirrors earlier?”
Acknowledging their work enthusiasm, Fu Qian continued to inquire.
“Yes, to increase efficiency, the team chose to explore separately within a certain range.”
“Unfortunately, we didn’t expect to suddenly enter that place, and with no way to retreat, we could only gropingly find our way here.”
As the saying goes, after the first ti, it gets easier.
The guy holding the excavation tool didn’t even hesitate much this ti, swiftly revealing the team’s secret.
As expected, Huang Lezhan’s glaring only lasted less than a second before he withdrew it, without even putting up a harsh word.
Just as no one believed he would take the initiative to risk his life for the team’s hazard elimination, no one believed he would waste his blood bar on disciplining team mbers either.
…
Sounds like those uniformly dressed Saints didn’t even make an appearance to greet this group?
Though one’s dazzling charm indeed surpasses them by far, this treatnt varies too distinctly, doesn’t it?
“You’ve been hesitating here for quite a while.”
Amid the musings, Fu Qian didn’t forget to show concern for the survival team’s thought process.
The reasoning is simple; reaching this point shouldn’t take too long, and their survival passage had only been dug for half an hour, leaving the remaining ti seemingly spent in hesitation over the predicant.
The subsequent responses from the team mbers confird this guess.
Everyone remained silent, with no intention of denying it.
“So, do you have a better idea?”
Among the slightly awkward atmosphere, the only lady in the team, seizing the opportunity, finally broke the stalemate.
This mysterious person, though indifferent and ruthless, wasn’t wrong in what he said.
Most importantly, he was clearly in the sa predicant as everyone else.
Just as he reminded everyone verbally not to get hurt, he himself also wouldn’t want to be hurt, and likewise wanted to escape.
Oh?
Unfortunately, although he turned his head upon hearing, Fu Qian’s response to her was rely a smile.
“…I am Miranda.”
After taking a few seconds, she finally seed to realize sothing, responding to the previously unanswered inquiry.
“Very good.”
Fu Qian was finally satisfied, nodding and answering the previous question, even glancing back at that long staircase while speaking.
“Although the situation indeed doesn’t look too good, I still think your thod has a low success rate.”
…The so-called ‘I don’t have a solution, but I still think your solution doesn’t work’ kind of nonsense logic?
Is this the ti to be pulling this kind of crap logic?
Despite the slightly awkward atmosphere, everyone, including Miranda, driven by their survival instinct, was all ears, unwilling to miss a single word from this mysterious figure.
And precisely because of this, Fu Qian’s reply evidently stirred a strong reaction.
“Of course I have a thod, so what price are you willing to pay to obtain it?”
Before they could express their indignation, Fu Qian casually supplented, entering swindler mode.
