Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System Chapter 877 837: The Fear of a Chocolate Bean

At first, Lin Yi didn't think much of it, but as he listened, it became increasingly nonsensical, until he was utterly bewildered; though he faintly began to suspect what was going on.

He just wasn't completely certain this was exactly as he'd imagined it.

That's why he asked the little eunuch about when the roaring noise happened.

What the little eunuch said next made Lin Yi feel both amused and helpless.

At the same time, Lin Yi confirmed his suspicion was true, realizing that these people had mistaken the sound of his helicopter for heavenly punishment.

The most ridiculous part was that the You King actually believed it.

Not only did he believe it himself, but he even brought out the Celestial Mirror, letting that so-called Daoist Wu interpret it.

Moreover, this guy was something else, managing to trick the You King, deceptively connecting these events with heavenly punishment.

According to the little eunuch's recounting, Lin Yi also learned about what role Daoist Wu played in all of this.

If he really thought about it, this guy should be thanking him instead; if it weren't for his helicopter flying over, if it weren't for that roaring sound, he wouldn't be in this situation.

Lin Yi also realized that this guy might be getting ready to pack up and flee?

However, what he hadn't expected was due to later events, Daoist Wu changed his mind, even though he was prepared to take all the money and run, he actually took out half to genuinely perform a sacrifice.

No matter how you see it, this situation is filled with entertaining drama.

Of course, this is how he saw it; looking from society's viewpoint, everything seemed reasonable.

After all, the height he viewed things from was unmatched by them; he could say he was observing them from a superior vantage point.

He could see clearly what many of them couldn't.

"Hero. I've told you everything I know, please spare my life."

At the end of his story, the little eunuch once again kowtowed desperately, pleading for Lin Yi to let him go.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi snapped out of his amused mood, looked at the little eunuch, thought for a moment, and nodded, saying:

"Don't worry. I always keep my word, so since I promised to let you go, I won't renege. But before that, I have one more thing I need your help with."

Upon hearing this hero needed his help, the little eunuch became unexpectedly excited, quickly nodding and agreeing, eager for Lin Yi to use him.

As long as he had use to this hero, his life would be somewhat assured, at least for now, Lin Yi wouldn't get rid of him.

Seeing the fellow's attitude, Lin Yi was quite satisfied.

And the other's cautious survival instincts were genuine, reassuring him that this guy wouldn't betray him.

As long as the guy's life was in his control, he definitely wouldn't do anything foolish.

But as someone with experience, Lin Yi knew an important thing: without absolute certainty, you shouldn't pin your hopes on others.

That means even if this guy was extremely scared of dying, even if there was a 99% chance he wouldn't betray him, he wouldn't risk that 1% chance.

Thus, abruptly, Lin Yi flipped his hand, revealing a black pill in his palm.

Once the pill appeared, Lin Yi handed it to the eunuch, coldly saying:

"Swallow this."

Under the faint moonlight, the little eunuch saw the black pill in Lin Yi's hand, his face instantly turned pale.

At the same time, he secretly thought this wasn't good; was this hero going to kill him right off?

Seeing this guy hesitate, Lin Yi knew he must have misunderstood something, so impatiently he said:

"Relax, eating this won't kill you immediately."

Upon hearing this, the little eunuch breathed a sigh of relief, quickly reaching out to take the pill, but suddenly he thought of something.

Then he hastily raised his head, looking at Lin Yi in terror, stammering:

"Hero! After swallowing this pill, it won't kill me instantly, but how long can I live? When will it take effect?"

By the end, his voice was trembling, and the desperation in his eyes left Lin Yi somewhat helpless.

But he went on to explain:

"Don't worry, within twenty-four hours, you'll be fine. As long as you behave, I'll give you the antidote."

After saying this, Lin Yi pulled down his mask.

Not to look cool, but because he couldn't hold it in.

If he didn't lower his mask in time, he worried the guy might see his uncontrollable smile.

As for why he was laughing, it was because of the black pill he gave the little eunuch, which anyone from the future could easily recognize.

That's right, it was a chocolate bean.

Regarding poison, it was definitely a joke, although Lin Yi carried many weapons, he didn't use poison.

And the reason he used this chocolate bean as a poison was solely to threaten and intimidate the guy, eliminating any chance of betrayal.

Only by instilling pure fear in him, continuously fearing him, could he better control him.

Laying eyes on the guy emitting a sinister glow, the little eunuch shivered.

Then, terrified to ask further, he hastily threw the black pill into his mouth, swallowed it without chewing.

But since the chocolate bean was rather big, the little eunuch choked while swallowing it.
