After entering the small house, everyone seemed to have entered another space. There were various forks in front of them, like they were in a maze with no direction at all.

Yu Wei was abandoned outside, and Yu Chen came in last. Professor Gao's face was calm, but his palms were soaked with sweat. He looked at Yu Chen warily and accused: "Why did you abandon Yu Wei?!"

Yu Chen said calmly: "As the captain, he did not have the ability to protect the team members and did not inform the team members of the situation here. He was both incompetent and derelict in his duties."

"Why should I risk being killed to save him?" Yu Chen changed the topic and pointed the finger at Professor Gao: "As far as I know, there is no archeology professor named Gao in XX Academy. So, may I ask Professor Gao, How did you appear out of thin air? Why did you join our expedition team? What is your purpose?"

Professor Gao had cold sweat on his forehead. He didn't expect that his identity would be revealed so quickly.

No one in the expedition team is a fool. When Yu Chen said this, the eyes of others on Professor Gao became unkind.

"No matter what his purpose is, if he dares to lie to us, he must be prepared to be beaten by us!"

"Yes, he definitely didn't mean well. He was looking at my girlfriend lustfully before!"

A successful smile appeared on Yu Chen's face, but Gu An saw it clearly. He silently walked away from Yu Chen and carefully observed the surrounding scene without any intention of participating in it.

"Everyone, calm down," Yu Chen said in a calm voice, "Now is not the time to worry about this. Let's work together to get out of here. It won't be too late to deal with him when we get out."

"Yu Chen is right, let's let him go for now."

Yu Chen added: "My brother is probably in danger. The expedition team cannot be without the leadership of the captain. I consider myself to be quite capable. If you have no objections, then I will temporarily lead the expedition team. Don't worry, I will definitely guide everyone and get out safely!"

It makes no difference to the players who is the captain. When Yu Chen said this, they naturally agreed.

Only a few people felt that something was wrong with Yu Chen, but now they could only obey the majority, otherwise they would be dissatisfied with Chen.

Yu Chen smiled with satisfaction, then withdrew his smile and said coldly: "Now, throw the gas mask to the ground."

Everyone was confused, what does that mean?

Yu Chen said with a cold face: "Can't you understand people?"

Professor Gao retorted in a low voice: "But if we take off the gas mask, we will..."

"Professor Gao," Yu Chen looked at Professor Gao with a threatening look on his face and said, "You talk too much."

He looked at everyone and said in a deep voice: "I originally didn't plan to tell you about this, but if I don't tell you now, I'm afraid you won't be willing to take off the gas mask."

Facing the curious eyes of everyone, Yu Chen said: "Actually, there is no so-called miasma here. It's just that they can't adapt to the air here, which leads to allergic reactions."

Yu Chen took out a box of red pills from his pocket and said, "I brought these pills from outside. They can fight allergies anyway. If you think wearing a gas mask is easier than taking this pill, just pretend I didn't say that."

Everyone was a little moved. Yu Chen's eyes narrowed slightly. He poured out a pill and put it into his mouth. After the pill entered his abdomen, he threw the gas mask in his hand to the ground with a bang.
