Luo Yi pointed his gun at Chen Baohua and roared, "Bullshit! Why would I drug them with sleeping pills?"

"Seeing how anxious you are, doesn't that prove I guessed right?" Chen Baohua smiled mysteriously, knowing he had this kind of young man figured out.

Then he added, "You knocked them out so you could keep all the treasures in the princess's tomb for yourself, hehe, I wasn't wrong, was I?"

Luo Yi frowned. "So what if you guessed? I can shoot you all right now, keep all that gold for myself, and gain national honor!"

"I never imagined that there would be corruption in the national expedition team!" Fu Wenjun, who had just come of age, shook his head angrily.

Chen Baohua shrugged and said, "You can shoot us dead, but without our help, could you even get the stuff?"

"If you could get it yourself, why did you have to transfer us all the way here?"

Luo Yi hesitated before speaking, "After it's done, I can release you. Then bring the gold and come with me on a ship to leave the country."

Upon hearing this, the eyes of the five death row inmates lit up, and then a look of greed appeared on their faces.

Fu Wenjun, being the youngest, couldn't contain his impatience and blurted out, "That's not enough! We also need to share the money!"

Chen Baohua asked calmly, "What's in the princess's tomb?"

"I don't know the specifics," Luo Yi shook his head first, then added, "But according to Captain Guan's initial reconnaissance, they found gold, jewelry, and bronze artifacts, but they didn't go any further inside."

"I can give you a share, but the three chests of gold at the tomb entrance must be mine alone. The rest you can divide equally!"

Upon hearing Luo Yi's words, the five men's eyes lit up even more.

The two young men, Fu Wenjun and Zhao Feng, were so excited that they punched and stomped their feet on the spot.

Even Chen Baohua licked his lips, his eyes filled with unprecedented joy.

Three chests of gold—that must be an enormous fortune.

"Now that everything is clear, let's go. As long as you don't touch the three boxes of gold at the door, I promise I won't shoot."

Luo Yi gestured for the group to continue walking forward.

The five men didn't take it to heart at all. Once they reached the pitch-black tomb, they could smash their skulls in a matter of minutes. Who was afraid of a pistol?

Liu Wang and Shen Chengrui, who sold flour, were the first to set off, eager to be the first to rush into the tomb and move the gold.

Chen Baohua initially wanted to follow, but then stopped and asked, "The ravine is below. Are you sure the princess's tomb is there?"

"Didn't you see my teammates have all come looking for us? They have Captain Guan's route map. The entrance to the tomb is very likely in a ravine. It's possible that both of these mountains are tombs," Luo Yi explained.

Chen Baohua looked up at the feng shui, then nodded and walked forward.

To prevent them from escaping, Luo Yi naturally led the way with his gun drawn, a move that everyone tacitly agreed to be reasonable.

"Let's follow my teammate's direction and go straight. If necessary, we can search along the ravine."

Seeing that Fu Wenjun, who was at the front, had strayed off course, Luo Yi spoke up to remind him.

Fu Wenjun and Zhao Feng exchanged a glance, planning to kill the man as soon as they entered the tomb, and then split the gold bars with the others.

Buzz!

Two hundred meters away from the leopard fire ant, a piercing sound, like fingernails scraping across a blackboard, rang out.

Luo Yi quickly focused his gaze ahead and mobilized his mental energy to rush forward. It was like two streams of water colliding, instantly blocking the damage. When it finally reached Fu Wenjun and the others' ears, they only heard a slightly strange insect chirping.

"Huh? That sound just now, did you hear it?" Fu Wenjun stopped and turned around.

Chen Baohua and the others weren't surprised. "You've never been up in the mountains before, have you? You can hear all sorts of noises in the forest."

Luo Yi, pointing his gun behind him, urged, "Hurry up and go. Once the sleeping pills wear off, my teammates will wake up."

Upon hearing this, Fu Wenjun immediately quickened his pace.

Buzz!

Buzz!

The leopard-patterned fire ants chirped a few more times, but Luo Yi blocked all the mental damage they caused.

At this point, we were only about 100 meters away from the leopard fire ants.

The sound of shoes snapping dead branches grew louder and louder.

Luo Yi glanced at the special watch; his mental strength was still 170, enough to handle the situation.

Fu Wenjun was focused solely on moving the gold, walking at the very front the whole way, his pace quickening as he went, pointing to the distant bushes and saying:

"Hey, that looks like a hole... hiccup!"

He slid sideways toward the ravine, when suddenly a ball of fire the size of a thumb flew toward him at high speed. Its fiery mouth, like an iron clamp, bit into his right neck, and a ball of blue flame, as if burning on paper, quickly spread to his shoulder and cheek.

"Holy crap! Fu..." Zhao Feng, who was behind, was the first to see it and screamed in fright. Before he could finish his sentence, his face was pinched by iron pliers, and blue flames quickly spread all over his face.

"Run! Run..." Shen Chengrui turned and ran, but his body trembled as the back of his neck was pinched by pliers. Immediately afterwards, his back felt hot and he collapsed to the ground convulsing.

Liu Wang and Chen Baohua, who were standing nearby, were also quite frightened. They quickly took off their clothes and scrambled backward while patting themselves down.

Buzz~ Buzz!

A leopard fire ant stood on a leaf, continuously emitting a piercing sound.

Luo Yiren was twenty meters away, taking dough out of his bag.

He only cared about protecting himself from this mental attack and wouldn't care about the two death row inmates anymore.

After only three buzzing sounds, Liu Wang, as if drunk, leaned against a tree to stand up, haphazardly patting his clothes with one hand, then trembled and slumped down against the tree trunk.

As expected of a mercenary, Chen Baohua was indeed physically stronger. He staggered back to Luo Yi, reached out to pull him in front of him as a shield, then trembled and knelt down.

Luo Yi witnessed a fire ant the size of a thumb pierce his forehead and fly out from the back of his head, as fast and hard as a bullet.

Buzz~ Buzz~!

The leopard fire ants on the tree are still chirping.

With its help, the other two fire ants shot in like bullets.

While mobilizing his mental energy to resist, Luo Yi raised his right hand, which was wrapped in dough, and unleashed his maximum speed and reaction speed of 20 meters per second.

boom!

With a single punch, the fire ant and the dough were slammed into the tree.

The tree trembled, and leaves flew everywhere.

The fire ants in the dough were also slapped to death and embedded in the tree trunk.

Noticing another one rushing towards the back of his head, Luo Yi grabbed the dough and slapped it down.

The agile yet resilient leopard-spotted fire ant was momentarily immobilized when its wings were wrapped in dough.

"now you."

Luo Yi looked up at the tree, where the chirping fire ant's voice gradually weakened and became hoarse.

As he stared into the distance, 50 points of mental energy surged forth, knocking down a tree branch in the process.

Luo Yi quickly ran over and covered it with dough.

Actually, you don't need dough to catch it, because it was really exhausted and was lying on the ground moving slowly.

Three leopard-spotted fire ants; one was swatted dead, and the other two were captured alive.

Luo Yi examined the unusual creature on the dough.

It is about the size of a thumb, and its shape is similar to that of an ant, but its skin color is the same as that of a leopard. You can vaguely see a few sparks on the pincers on its mouth.

It's nothing compared to the ball of fire that just burst out. No wonder it's called the first fire; it's like lava. Who could withstand that?

Luo Yi looked up at Fu Wenjun, Zhao Feng, and Shen Chengrui in the distance. These three had caught the first flame and were now completely charred black, unrecognizable as human.

The bite site even exposed the white bone.

After confirming that all five death row inmates were dead, he went to a tree and pried off the leopard-patterned fire ant that was embedded in it.

"This is only level 2.1. Since you're dead, stay here and cover up the lie."

The casualties at the scene certainly need a reasonable explanation.

Luo Yi took out a bag and packed it up.

The two creatures wrapped in the dough were a level 1.9 that had been captured alive and a level 2.3 that had grown tired of barking.

The leopard fire ants are ground into powder, so there's no need to extract their blood essence. One is enough, and he wants to keep the other one as a backup.

"With all the materials complete, we can achieve Level 3 physique and become one of the strongest people in the world."

Luo Yi was in high spirits. After packing his things and confirming that there was no problem at the scene, he dialed the local armed police.

With so many wounded and dead, and only 62 mental energy left, it would be too much trouble for him to carry them back by himself. It would be easier to call for backup.

During his free time, he also accessed the Omniscient System and asked:

What consequences and troubles will my actions today bring?

This problem is expected to take 15 minutes.
