Chapter 414 Fluorescent Coatings
Jin Lingsu's mouth gaped open in amazement as she stared at everything before her.
"I never thought we'd have such an unexpected find this time, if we can move these items out, they'll be worth a fortune."
Chen Yu immediately rolled his eyes.
Speaking of which, with Jin Lingsu's current assets ranked globally, how could she still be so obsessed with wealth?
He didn't ask any further questions but simply followed a narrow path forward for a few steps, and soon he came upon a large door.
Jin Lingsu caught up as well.
"Could there be more treasures behind the door? Can it be opened?"
Chen Yu nodded, as the system had already downloaded all the mechanisms in the area into his mind when he entered.
The large door in front of them employed a spiral mechanism, concealing numerous crossbows, any careless move might result in being shot to death.
Chen Yu was not afraid of these; he simply pressed lightly on the walls nearby, and the large door slowly opened.
Inside there were no treasures, but a multitude of coffins, and next to each coffin were several small chests filled with gold and jewels.
Jin Lingsu immediately became excited and was about to move a chest.
"Don't touch anything, all these items are coated with poison. Just one touch, and you'll die on the spot."
Jin Lingsu immediately stepped back several paces, her face growing dark.
"Those guys really, even in death they claim these treasures, not leaving anything for the living."
Chen Yu looked around and then pulled Jin Lingsu out of the hall.
"This place was designed with two layers, the gold set out on the outside is meant to bribe those who come later, to take the gold and leave, not touching the things inside."
Jin Lingsu nodded again and again, grabbed handfuls of gold, and walked toward the entrance.
Luo Sanpao was distributing food outside with several people, but when it came to Jin Lingsu's turn, he found the tunnel empty, except for a smaller hole nearby.
"Sister Jin, Brother Chen, where have you gone?"
Luo Sanpao shouted and was about to crawl into the small hole.
"What are you shouting for?" Jin Lingsu emerged from the small hole somewhat impatiently, scattering the gold in her hands on the ground.
"Seal this place up, make a mark, and we'll dig out the gold inside when we come back from the ancient city of Mutuo."
Luo Sanpao couldn't help but widen his eyes; he hadn't expected a seemingly inconspicuous ruin to hide a treasure beneath.
"My God, there's gold inside? How much?"
Chen Yu followed out of the small hole: "Enough for you to build another castle anywhere in the desert."
Luo Sanpao was thrilled, such a find was truly unexpected.
As they were talking, a sudden, tremendous noise came from outside.
Your journey continues at empire
Luo Sanpao's eyes widened, and he hurriedly rushed out.
For some reason, a large number of troops were moving around the outskirts of the ruins, but it was unknown to whom they belonged.
This ruin was exceedingly hidden, and to reach it, one would either have to take a long detour or travel through the Sea of Death.
"What in blazes, where did these people come from?" Luo Sanpao was utterly bewildered.
However, he didn't dwell on it and immediately ordered his men to take positions.
Chen Yu crouched there with his eyes slightly narrowed.
When he had come, he had scouted all the paths, and there were no other teams at all, unless they had followed them here along the Sea of Death.
The route in that place was calculated by him through the system, outsiders couldn't possibly know it.
That is to say, there was a traitor among the team!
Chen Yu adjusted his breathing slightly, and immediately, a blue-white glow was released from his body, and the brain information of everyone present instantly appeared in his mind.
Before long, he locked onto a thin man.
This guy had an extremely wicked appearance, so just by looking at him, one knew he was no good, and while everyone else was energetically unobstructed, he was actually hiding behind a small hillock, holding a signal transmitter, ready to release it at any moment.
Chen Yu didn't care about that, he directly followed to the small slope.
The man was startled when he saw Chen Yu.
"Mr. Chen, how did you come here?"
Chen Yu's mouth curled up slightly, and after sizing the man up, he stepped forward and directly grabbed his collar, ripping it violently.
A large amount of secret fluorescent paint fell off the man's body.
This stuff was not ordinary paint, once on the ground, it could last a very long time.
Even in sandy terrain, it could ensure it wouldn't immediately deform.
"I remember telling everyone to carry a large amount of food when we set off, why do you have so much fluorescent paint?"
The man was scared out of his wits: "It's easy to get lost in the desert, sometimes you have to make marks, this is what Brother Sanpao taught us."
Chen Yu didn't care about that, he directly pressed the man to the ground and pulled a communication device from his waist.
The frequency set on it was three more than the frequency used by the motorcade, it was obviously used for contacting the outside world.
Chen Yu's eyes slightly narrowed, and he directly tore off the communication device, then, grabbing the man by the back of his head, he brought him in front of Luo Sanpao.
"We have a traitor in our team, this guy has been in contact with the Lakato Family all along!"
When Luo Sanpao saw the man, he was stunned, this guy had been loyally following him since he was a child, and such a person had actually betrayed him.
After taking a moment to regulate his breath, Luo Sanpao directly grabbed the man's collar.
"You little rascal, I raised you with my own hands, why would you betray me?"
The man's breathing became extremely rapid.
"Luo Sanpao, you have so much wealth in your hands, why not go to the big cities? Why must you nest in the desert? Do you want your brothers to spend their whole lives in this godforsaken place?"
Luo Sanpao was taken aback, he was not interested in the outside world, nor did he like those flashy places, they only blinded people's eyes.
He had thought that these children who grew up in the desert deeply loved the land beneath their feet, but unexpectedly, they were still enamored with the outside world.
"It seems someone has promised you something!"
Luo Sanpao sighed deeply, then grabbed the man and threw him out.
The man didn't falter, raised his hands high, and ran towards the other side.
As he ran, he was still shouting the slogans they had agreed upon.
But he hadn't expected that the people of the Lakato Family didn't care about his life and death at all, and a car came crashing over, sending him flying with a single blow.
Then, a middle-aged man with a very distinctive outfit got out of the car, took off his gloves, raised his hands, and slowly walked towards the ruins.
