Chapter 419: Chapter 186: The Immortal Pharaoh Old Wang_2

Fortunately, Lin Baici was not an ordinary person anymore. With his greatly improved willpower, he managed to rip it off.

"Does this thing require strong willpower?"

Originally, Lin Baici had thought to let each person wear it for twenty seconds, but now he was hesitant to let ordinary people try it.

[Yes, but one can forcibly remove it!]

Eater God commented.

Boom!

As Lin Baici took off the mask, those obedient beetle-like creatures started to go wild again, surging towards the intruders.

The obsidian beetle statues moved even faster.

"Red Medicine, put it on and make these beetle-like creatures back off. Remember, no more than twenty seconds, then you must take it off!"

Lin Baici instructed.

"I’ll do it!"

Fei Xiao reached out his hand. He hadn’t relied on his physical fitness to run ahead; instead, he had stayed with the main group. However, he hadn’t rescued anyone either.

Mainly because he didn’t know how to do it.

Actually, the little insects didn’t have much killing power, but the trouble was their overwhelming numbers, making them hard to kill.

"You can wear it for thirty seconds!"

Lin Baici handed the golden mask over. Fei Xiao, being the Lion King, had stronger physical health and willpower. Lin Baici thought he could endure it for a longer time.

If he couldn’t bear it, Lin Baici would rip the mask off.

Fei Xiao put on the mask and indeed suffered from mental pollution, but after just three seconds he came to his senses and loudly ordered the beetle-like creatures to back off.

Wait a second?

"Can I make these bugs kill themselves?"

Without waiting for Lin Baici to respond, Fei Xiao started to try.

"All of you, kill yourselves!"

Fei Xiao roared.

Boom!

An intense sting assaulted Fei Xiao’s brain, almost causing him to drop dead on the spot from the pain.

This kind of command could be issued, but because it went against the natural instinct to survive, there was some backlash. If it were only a few bugs, it wouldn’t be too bad, but with so many grouped together, the mental damage from the backlash they transmitted in an instant was significant.

This was only because Fei Xiao was strong enough. If Fang Tianhua had attempted it, he would have turned into an idiot on the spot.

However, there were significant effects. The bugs closer to Fei Xiao were more severely affected by the ’order’ and started crashing into the walls.

Because of the sheer number, it made a squishing noise.

Soon, the walls were covered with the remains and fluids left by the beetle-like creatures as they crashed to their deaths.

The ones on everyone’s bodies also left, heading off to commit suicide. This lightened everyone’s load, allowing them to run with more ease.

"Time’s up!"

Lin Baici reminded, keeping an eye on Fei Xiao, ready to strip off the golden mask at any moment.

Fei Xiao used four fingers to grip the forehead of the mask and, like tearing off a plaster, he yanked it from his face.

"Damn, this thing is terrifying!"

The pain was bearable, but the key issue was the addiction.

"My turn!"

Xia Hongyao reached for the golden mask without any hesitation, ready to put it on her face.

"Wait!"

Lin Baici stopped High Ponytail: "Wait until the bugs approach before using it!"

A large number of the beetle-like creatures had died, but another large group was summoned by the beetle statues, swarming towards Lin Baici and the others who had entered the temple.

Once they got close, Xia Hongyao donned the mask, enduring the intense pain, and ordered the creatures to die.

Twenty seconds passed, and Xia Hongyao removed the mask.

"Let me!"

Kim Myungjin extended her hand for the mask.

She didn’t want to be a burden.

Lin Baici didn’t refuse her, considering this a trial: "No more than five seconds, one command, not to kill themselves, but to back off."

"Understood!"

Kim Myungjin strictly followed Lin Baici’s instructions, and after a command, the creatures backed off, buying several dozen seconds for the group to escape.

However, after she used the golden mask, her face turned pale, evidently suffering greater damage than Lin Baici and Xia Hongyao.

"It’s my turn!"

Hua Yue Yu refused to be outdone and was also willing to contribute to the team.

After she finished, Gu Qingqiu reached out her hand.

"You sure?"

Lin Baici eyed the girl. Although she didn’t look frail, she certainly wasn’t healthy, lacking the vitality of the Goryeo girl and the female anchor.

"I want to experience it!"

Gu Qingqiu spoke succinctly.

"Boss!"

Fang Tianhua, who had run ahead taking advantage of the death of a large number of bugs, had come running back.

"What are you doing back here?"

Fei Xiao cursed him without holding back.

"I thought you guys were too slow, came back to check!"

Fang Tianhua still had team spirit, unlike Bian Xiang, who kept maintaining a distance of nearly a hundred meters ahead of the main group but also stopped pushing forward.

Because he was worried about traps.

After Fang Tianhua wore the mask and ordered the beetle-like creatures to retreat, Gu Qingqiu was about to take it from him when suddenly Bian Xiang’s loud shout came from up ahead.

"Come quickly, the bugs have stopped!"

Hearing this, everyone seemed to see the light in the darkness and started sprinting with all their might.

A hundred meters, to ordinary people, takes only tens of seconds.

When everyone rounded a bend and rushed into a corridor, the beetle-like creatures slammed on the brakes as if there was something ahead they were terrified of, all halting in their tracks.

Everyone stumbled over one another, gasping for air, and charged into the hallway.

"Help me!"

A woman’s legs gave out just a few meters from here, and she fell, crying out in terror. Her cries were quickly silenced by beetle-like creatures crawling into her mouth.

Desperate, and just as she was about to give up, Lin Baici rushed over, grabbed the back of her shirt, threw her out, and then swung his torch.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The tail flame from the torch created the illusion of a flaming dragon dancing through the dark corridor, igniting the nearby beetle-like creatures as it passed.
