Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System Chapter 923 883: All Chickened Out
"Look at you all with your dusty faces.
Alright, alright, let's head back quickly. Leave the matters here to me."
Upon seeing Lin Yi's sudden appearance, Leng Yu was visibly taken aback, not expecting him to return so soon.
After hearing Lin Yi's somewhat reproachful words, her pretty face turned bright red.
She wanted to say something, but in the end, opened her mouth and said nothing.
There was no way around it; at this moment, facing Lin Yi, she harbored a very peculiar attitude and feeling.
Her belly was full of things to say, but when faced with the water's edge, she dared not utter a single word.
She really wanted to tell Lin Yi that it was all because she feared he'd be exhausted, she feared Lin Yi doing everything would tire him out, and that she tried to help in any way she could, leading people to assist him. But she didn't vocalize it.
Thus, after Lin Yi glanced around at everyone, he began leading them back to camp.
However, at this moment, they were quite far from camp, and walking back would take about two hours.
As for why they chose to walk rather than ride horses, it was because the terrain was quite wild, not conducive to horse travel. That's why they opted not to ride.
Of course, it's not due to steep cliffs, but rather because the forest here is a primal forest where all plants and animals grow wildly.
The ground was covered in thorns, vines, and towering trees, among other obstacles.
Seeing the slow pace of the march and the dozen people with him, Lin Yi helplessly shook his head. He then simply took out a small transport helicopter from System Space and found a relatively open area for everyone to board.
Leng Yu was fine; she'd taken this thing once before. Though still novel to her, she wasn't overly shocked.
In contrast, the dozen subordinates were experiencing it for the first time. Though they saw it outside last time, they didn't understand what wonders lay within.
After boarding the helicopter, everyone was enthusiastically yelling.
Thankfully, a single look from Leng Yu quieted them immediately.
Though mouths were shut, their eyes couldn't help but dart around, their faces full of excitement.
This was just the beginning. When the rotor started spinning, everyone jumped in surprise, clutching their seats and handles tightly, peering outside as if faced with a haunting wail.
In their understanding, humans couldn't possibly fly into the sky, but now?
Now they found themselves airborne.
Watching the trees on the ground shrink, the rivers become tiny, fear crept into their hearts.
Faced with the unknown, humans are always fearful, especially this sudden feeling of flying into the air — they couldn't help but feel afraid.
And as their fear surged, Lin Yi's voice suddenly came from the helicopter's speakers:
"Everyone settle down, don't panic. You can look around but avoid moving chaotically."
Upon hearing this, everyone just froze, looking at each other, then at Lin Yi ahead.
The Immortal Young Master wasn't looking at them, yet the voice reached each of their ears so clearly.
This sensation was truly extraordinary.
Obviously, they'd already adapted to Lin Yi's unpredictable tactics and his unfathomable methods.
If he couldn't do this, how could he be called Immortal Young Master? For this reason, they adapted quickly to this feeling.
Even though they accepted hearing the voice without seeing him now, the sudden feeling of flying still left them deeply shocked.
So much so that throughout the journey, they continuously looked around, yet their hands kept a grip on anything they could hold, fearing suddenly falling.
Fortunately, upon landing, this didn't happen.
It wasn't until the helicopter gently landed on the ground that everyone breathed a long sigh of relief.
The expressions of narrowly escaping a catastrophe were evident on their faces.
Lin Yi and Leng Yu couldn't help but look on helplessly.
Especially Lin Yi, seeing these guys act as if they barely escaped the gates of hell, he wanted to kick each of them — is it necessary? Wasn't it just a ride in a helicopter? Was it necessary to be so frightened?
Even facing 10,000 Yan Country cavalry, they never showed such expressions. Is this how men should behave?
Of course, while complaining internally, he didn't kick them but rather understood this group of guys.
Just then, those fellows suddenly burst into clamorous voices.
Lin Yi had already put the helicopter back into System Space, thus he heard the noisy conversation clearly.
"Oh my! Where are we? How did we end up back here in just a few breaths?"
"Goodness, what's happening here? Weren't we in the jungle? How did we suddenly return to the town?"
"Come on, Da Niu, punch me to see if I'm seeing things."
"Ouch, damn you, Da Niu, you bastard, you really hit me."
Amidst the commotion, Lin Yi listened, both shaking his head and chuckling bitterly.
Luckily, Leng Yu finally spoke:
"Alright, everyone, stop making noise. Now that we're back in town, you can all go eat. After eating, bring those previously selected to my Border Army Governor's Mansion."
Upon hearing Leng Yu's words, the group responded affirmatively, turned around, and dispersed.
