Ten seconds, twenty seconds, thirty seconds...
One minute passed quickly.
The thick-lipped lame woman Su opened her eyes, looked at the long-haired woman Jasmine, and shook her head slightly.
"Didn't find it?" Jasmine asked aloud.
"Nothing." Su replied.
Jasmine's expression was solemn, and she turned to look at the white-haired old man Xizhe wearing a black iron mask.
Xizhe grabbed the small wooden stick that was spinning in crazy circles and pulled it off the ground. He sighed softly, looked over, and shook his head.
Jasmine's face turned a bit ugly. She thought for a few seconds, exhaled a breath, and said slightly dejectedly: "Okay, it seems we have lost. Let's call everyone back."
"Yes." Su nodded, chanted a spell in his mouth, clapped his hands, and a wave of energy quickly spread out with the wind.
Not long after, the four people sent out, "One Eye", "Ice Cube", "Wood" and "Camel", returned one after another. They saw the result of the incident from Jasmine's face and looked at each other. For a moment, no one knew what to say.
The burly Hulk, who was sitting on the stone nearby, came over, his eyes flashed, he leaned close to Jasmine and asked: "Captain, what should we do now?"
"What do you think we can do!" Jasmine glanced at Hulk angrily, "Of course I'm waiting for the other party to come back. Since I haven't found the other party, I can only accept defeat and explore the ancient ruins with the other party and share the profits equally."
Hulk rolled his eyes and suggested in a low voice: "Captain, actually I think that if we deny it, that guy can't do anything about it, right?"
"Huh? What do you mean?!" Jasmine raised an eyebrow and looked at Hulk.
"I mean...that..." Facing Jasmine's gaze, Hulk seemed to feel great pressure, and his words were a little incoherent, "that..."
At this time, Su took over Hulk's words and said slowly: "Captain, I think what Hulk means is that after all, that person only has one seal in his hand. Without him, we can't open the ancient ruins. Without us, he can also open it." We cannot open the ancient ruins. Therefore, if we deny it, if the other party wants to open the ancient ruins, they will eventually have to compromise with us."
Hulk nodded quickly after hearing this, indicating that this is what he wanted to say.
Jasmine raised her eyebrows, tilted her head slightly, looked at Su, and asked: "You mean, I want to throw away my integrity in exchange for the benefits of exploring ancient ruins?"
"Uh, I don't dare, I don't dare." Su shook his head and showed a bitter smile, "Of course the captain's integrity cannot be lost. But, having said that, I think integrity should be reserved for one's own people and not for a stranger. , and it’s not necessary to leave it to a stranger from the Soma Alliance.”
Su's expression became serious: "Captain, you should know better than me. This exploration of ancient ruins is of great significance, not for ourselves, but for many other people. The thing in the ruins is what we must What should we do if we share the proceeds 50-50 with the other party for the sake of integrity and let the other party ask for it? Our exploration of ancient ruins this time is completely meaningless."
After a pause, Su continued: "Captain, in my opinion, we can cooperate with that person, but the initiative to explore the ancient ruins must be in our hands, because we must get the thing in the ruins, which is The key to our next plan.
We can give up other interests, and we can even sacrifice several of our lives for this, but we must never fail. Because this is not related to just a few of us, but to many, many people. "
After hearing this, Jasmine blinked her eyes, as if she was a little touched.
After a few seconds of silence, he said: "Even so, how can we make that person give in? You should be able to see that the other party is not simple. Now that the other party has won the game and has taken the initiative, it is not easy to get the other party to give in again. "
"That's not necessarily the case."
We have a seal, and the other party has a seal. The two seals must be together to be effective. If our attitude is firm enough, we must take the initiative before we are willing to explore the ruins. Unless the other party gives up, they will have no choice but to cooperate. "
After hearing this, Hulk came closer and said: "Captain, let's do this. After a while, the guy shows up, and we will make our attitude clear: ordinary things in ancient ruins can be 50-50 with each other, but we have what we need The thing must be ours unconditionally. If he accepts it, we will cooperate with him to explore it. If he does not accept it, then there is no chance of getting the seal in our hands... "
As he spoke, Hulk reached out and dug into his clothes. Suddenly his face changed, becoming paler than an "ice cube", the blood disappeared, and the sound in his mouth stopped abruptly.
Everyone nearby noticed Hulk's strange state and turned to look.
Under the gaze of many eyes, Hulk swallowed stiffly and kept groping inside his clothes. His expression became more and more panicked, and sweat slowly appeared on his face.
Jasmine raised her slender eyebrows and guessed a possibility. She looked directly at Hulk and asked in a serious voice: "What are you looking for?"
"I... I... looking for..."
"Don't tell me that you lost the blue seal that you kept."
As soon as these words came out, it was like a mountain fell on Hulk, and Hulk collapsed on the ground with a "pop". Her hands were shaking so much that she looked at Jasmine in despair and said, "Princess... Princess, I was wrong. I really don't know why the seal disappeared. I kept it close to me. It's obviously impossible to lose it, but... but..."
Jasmine's thin eyebrows stood up like two lancets. After hearing this, she said sternly: "Do you want to die? Call me captain! I have told you so many times that you can only call me captain! You want to expose me. Identity, kill everyone!?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Hulk said quickly, having completely lost his opinion, "Captain, I was wrong, I was wrong, I will definitely get the seal back, for sure."
After saying that, he put his hands on the ground, stood up unsteadily, and stumbled towards the way he came from, trying to find the lost seal.
"Okay, stop here and stay here honestly." Jasmine called out, calling Hulk to stop, and said rudely, "It won't be possible for you to find what you lost in a month. .”
Hulk froze in place.
Jasmine stopped paying attention, turned to look at Su next to her, and said, "Summon the wind and see if there is anything missing nearby."
"Yes, Captain." Su said, closing his eyes and sitting down on the ground, chanting an obscure spell in his mouth. A weak wind emerged from a few hundred meters away and continued to spread into the distance.
The old man Xizhe said: "Let me help you too."
After saying that, he sat down not far from Su, took out the small wooden stick that he had put away before, inserted it into the soil in front of him, and recited the incantation.
Then I saw that the small wooden stick was spinning crazily like before, round and round.
