Capítulo 1675: Chapter 1670: The Art of the Rear Sparrow
“It’s a reasonable estimate.”
Sha Ming’s words were directed at Fu Qian, and though this unreserved comnt successfully evoked fear in the others, causing them to look over.
Fu Qian’s remarks were not without purpose because, at the sa ti, Patch, having answered the question, lost interest in the conversation and reverted back to that vague human form.
Fu Qian did not insist on further discussion, promptly ending the technical exchange and seamlessly transitioning to a discussion with Sha Ming.
“But you’re still not going to do anything?”
Unfortunately, Sha Ming seed unsatisfied with his reaction.
Despite having his escape plan seen through, he remained casual.
Although his previous actions could be construed as bluffing, they still left a distinctly unpleasant impression.
“Still not released… How is this possible?”
Fortunately, not everyone was so calm; Old Master Huang’s gritted teeth and bitter voice successfully made Sha Ming seem less alone.
“So, does Mr. Sha have a way to解除 it?”
Old Master Huang was obviously adept at identifying key points, incredulous, he shifted his gaze to Sha Ming, while the Imperial Qi of Brilliance instantly enveloped his entire being.
“Then you’d better hurry, otherwise—”
“Otherwise, what? Are you planning to commit suicide and take with you?”
Sha Ming directly interrupted him, letting out a cold sneer.
“Not … I know you have a way to block the influence, but what if everyone acted together?”
Unfortunately, despite the oppressive ranking difference, the force of survival instincts could not be completely suppressed.
“Quickly, this is our only chance!”
With the final sentence, Old Master Huang’s voice abruptly rose, shouting at the entire team.
…
In a critical mont, the power of leadership ca into play.
Having just escaped with their lives only to fall into a shadow again, what could have been claid as a collapse in morale was surprisingly pulled back up by a single sentence.
After exchanging glances for a few seconds, not only did no voices of doubt arise, but the golden aura truly began to rise one by one.
Old Master Huang’s intent was simple, once the Bonds remained, death could be transmitted.
One person might be blocked like Huang Zhen before, but a group acting together was another matter.
Since Sha Ming admitted he could解除, it could be used as a threat, serving as the final way out.
This initial plan that emboldened the team to co down truly found its use.
Of course, it was hard to say everyone was ready to et death, but there was a clever point here—
Although under “Bonds,” death would only be transmitted once from the initial source outward, the resulting consequences would not continue spreading; therefore, everyone needed to act together to have deterrent power.
But even if only a handful acted, perhaps they couldn’t defeat Sha Ming, yet the rest couldn’t withstand it.
Once this realized, they knew retreating at the last mont likely ant death, better to take a risk.
Is this the legendary team power?
Admiring in his heart, Fu Qian continued to maintain a spectator’s stance, not moving.
“Alright, go ahead.”
And noticing this, Sha Ming was evidently quite disappointed, so much that his tone worsened.
Old Master Huang’s final gamble was clearly taken by him as a tool to exert pressure too.
And after no results, Sha Ming chose to adopt the sa laid-back stance as Fu Qian, indicating the rescue team could do as they pleased.
…
“Why not act?”
In a deathly silence, Sha Ming even urged them, as if striving to convey his displeasure.
“Not a bad idea, to the point where it indeed brought so anticipation, don’t hesitate.”
“You think we truly don’t dare…”
Old Master Huang clearly didn’t want to lose montum, appearing ferocious like a revived corpse on his dry face.
Click, click…
Just as a new stalemate was about to form, an unexpected change occurred – the sound of shoes upon gravel.
Everyone turned in unison towards the sound, and there they saw Miranda, who hadn’t made a sound since earlier, expressionlessly drawing closer step by step.
This…
Although the Bonds couldn’t be seen now, the team mbers knew she hadn’t been caught up earlier, theoretically having a chance to be exempt.
So even in this situation before them, her actions were clearly irrational.
However, hesitant to speak, ultimately no one offered a warning, until Miranda was close enough.
“Stop!”
Still in the lead, Huang Leji shouted a warning, instructing the new mber.
“Continuing forward will kill you, and everyone else.”
Haha…
Miranda indeed accepted the suggestion, though only during a brief cold laugh.
Her gaze swept across everyone, and even Sha Ming’s face, as a mocking smile erged, her steps resuming.
Plop.
Even with her action, a person finally fell, yet didn’t stop her steps for a mont.
Miranda, who could fall at any ti, appeared not to mind using this thod to accompany them all to the Netherworld.
“Quickly解除—”
Thinking an extra person might increase deterrence, Old Master Huang’s voice undoubtedly betrayed regret, deeply sensing the importance of emotional stability.
Who could anticipate that one of the triad mbers would be the first to emotionally collapse.
And in the throes of intense regret, he hurriedly issued the final ultimatum to Sha Ming.
Unfortunately, to his greater despair, though unexpectedly scrutinizing Miranda too, Sha Ming still showed no intention of acting, even focusing on the enigmatic figure wielding icy power.
Of course, Sha Ming, like Huang Leji, found nothing.
Fu Qian rely watched Miranda with an appreciative expression.
And amidst continuous falling sounds, she displayed astonishing madness, advancing step by step to Sha Ming’s side.
As for Huang Leji’s party, only four remained standing at that mont.
And each fallen one failed to make a decisive final action until death knocked.
Thankfully, easing everyone’s concern, Miranda’s steps finally halted.
“In fact, you’re not entirely without gain.”
Sha Ming evidently wouldn’t allow her any closer to the book, giving a wry chuckle and a word of persuasion.
But his response was, unfortunately, a bizarre detonation.
Like paper at its limit, Miranda’s body at that mont disintegrated into hundreds of pieces, enveloping Sha Ming entirely.
And as the last mbers of the rescue team, including Huang Leji fell in unison, amidst the torrent of blood, a rough rag doll leaped out, instantly lunging towards the not distant “Transcription of Truth.”
Everything occurred in a flash, changes leaving one bewildered.
For instance, as the rag doll nearly reached it, the Golden Canon suddenly flew in another direction.
“It’s yours.”
The thread of blood vanished from his hand, Fu Qian sensed the weight of academic plagiarism, nodding in acknowledgnt amid the gaze.
