Chapter 475 - 475: Global Shock! Gold Worth 840 Billion! (1)
“We’re still a fair distance away!”
They had unearthed another gold bar.
Luo Feng glanced towards the military stronghold they had left behind. It was approximately twenty kilometers away. The gold bar found in this place likely did not belong to that stronghold. It probably belonged to another military stronghold.
“We should be close!” Luo Feng murmured inwardly.
The next moment, his ears perked up slightly. They could see a fierce Northeast Tiger, about thirty meters away, watching them as if they were its prey. And it was not the only one. Another was also there, eying them with predatory intent. They were being encircled.
“Damn, we’re screwed!”
“Those are huge tigers!”
“Even if it’s ten thousand tons of gold, we won’t live to enjoy it!”
“From this distance, I can sense their kingly aura!”
Luo Feng slowly rose to his feet, stowed away the gold bar, then drew his Jungle Blade. He stared intently at the kings of the forest.
“Everyone, stay calm. Don’t run around!
If the enemy does not move, we do not move!”
“As long as we do not back down, they will not dare to come over!”
Tigers, or any other ferocious creatures, were like that. As long as you put up a brave front, they would hesitate to approach. After all, humans were not a part of their diet. Perhaps humans had instilled fear in them over the generations. Unlike when they saw lambs, they did not charge without thinking. That was a
prey ingrained in their genes, something they could overcome without getting hurt.
For anything else, tigers would observe first.
Indeed, Luo Feng could have killed these two tigers with a swing of his knife. Without a weapon, Luo Feng was not confident about facing two tigers. But with a weapon, it was rather effortless. Yet he did not wish to kill them, he would rather scare them away.
“Looking at them, they seem rather arrogant. We should not stay still either. Let’s advance towards them, considering we outnumber them, the tigers will consider that too!” Luo Feng began to speak.
If a tiger did not consider numbers, it would flee when confronted by a charging herd of cows.
“Luo Feng, should we really approach them?”
“Isn’t that a bit risky?”
“We shouldn’t provoke them!”
“Trust me, slowly move towards them, nothing will go wrong!” Luo Feng spoke softly. Due to their numerical superiority, although they were scared, they were not too terrified. They mustered up their courage and slowly moved towards the two tigers.
As expected.
As the humans advanced, the two tigers gradually lost their nerve. Whether in society or nature, those who are good are often taken advantage of, a true adage. As long as you are not cowardly, others will be.
One’s aura must be strong. When encountering situations, one must not always yield. Otherwise, one might be perceived as weak for life. Of course, this does not mean you should act recklessly, but you must not let others trample over you.
The so-called good guy persona, no one cherishes it. They will only continue to take advantage of you, seeking more benefits. They will never appreciate your kindness and be grateful.
“Whoa, whoa, whoa!”
“Whoa, whoa, whoa!”
Upon seeing the tigers flee in fear, several of the men even began to whistle. They laughed scornfully and joyously at the retreating tigers. Of course, the women reminded them not to shout, fearful that the noise might lure the tigers back. However, the human clamor seemed to only make the fleeing tigers more terrified, causing them to run even faster. “Damn, watching this livestream almost gave me a heart attack!”
“Can you all not make it so intense?”
“I felt like if the tigers pounced then, for all of you, it would have been like a wolf among sheep!”
“Exactly! All of you are just treasure hunters with no firearms, only sticks.
Tigers are still powerful creatures!” “You’re overlooking the host’s combat abilities.”
“But these are two full-grown tigers!”
Luo Feng paid no heed to the discussion in the live chat about his combat abilities. It was all quite extreme. Some worshipped him, comparing his prowess to that of Bruce Lee in his prime, suggesting he could even take on Mike Tyson in a one-on-one fight. Yet those who disagreed, or perhaps were a bit more rational, maintained that Luo Feng, being a human, could not possibly win against tigers.
“Initiate a Level Three Scan!”
With the matter of the tigers resolved, Luo Feng led the group forward. Upon the completion of the scan, a treasure marker spread across approximately one kilometer appeared five hundred meters ahead. Given its size, it seemed to indicate a military stronghold.
Luo Feng gave a sly grin. This treasure was easy to find, much easier than hunting for ancient tombs. Given enough time, Luo Feng could unearth all the gold here.
Meanwhile, not far into the Changbai Mountains, there was a group of over twenty people equipped with a full set of gear, advancing into the wilderness. They were part of the official team from the Land of the Cherry Blossoms, on a quest to find the Russian gold. Of course, even though these people knew the approximate location of the old military stronghold, after so many years, the exact location was no longer discernible. If someone did know it precisely, the gold would have been long discovered and taken.
In other words, if both Luo Feng and this team were relying solely on the information they had.
Without his cheats, the others would always find the treasure first and Luo Feng would be left empty-handed. However, Luo Feng had the ability to continuously scan his surroundings….
