Chapter 87 Entering the Tower
“Crack! Crack! Crack!”
With the physical fitness almost at that of an intermediate knight, Shalan quickly climbed up the rough and uneven surface of the Silaya Tower, waving his climbing pick. When he climbed to a height of nearly five or six meters, he finally saw a dark window. Not far from this window , Shalan could see another window appearing on the tower.
“It’s a bit surprising that there are so many window-like entrances at this height.”
While thinking, Shalan quickly took out the rope, steel spikes and hammer from her backpack. After nailing three steel spikes on the tower, the rope passed through the steel and hung down. At this moment, Shalan heard a roar coming from the underground passage. It was obviously not from a human. The gray-white giant snake came out of the passage!
"Hurry, that giant snake is coming!"
Hearing this, Fu and the others immediately sped up their climbing speed. At the same time, Shalan took out the remaining rope and also connected it to the steel spike and let it hang down.
"While the people below are waiting to come up, try to connect those backpacks and resources to the ropes . We can't lose those things!"
"knew!"
Fu was the first to climb up, followed by Guona. At this time, Ailan was about to climb up along the rope, but at this moment two people rushed over, and one of them actually dragged Ailan off the rope and threw her to the ground. The two of them grabbed the rope and climbed up.
I picked up the flashlight and shone it downwards, and immediately saw Gro and Amanda climbing up. Judging from their position, it was Gro who had just pulled Ailan off the rope.
With his eyes narrowed slightly, Shalan suddenly took out a revolver from his pocket, pointed it at Gro who was climbing up, and whispered: "Gro! I give you half a minute to get down and let Ailan come up, otherwise I will definitely blow your head off. Believe me, I can do it!"
Gro looked at the black muzzle of the gun above his head and shuddered. He said with an extremely ugly expression: "Shalan, I didn't offend you, did I? Our family has a great influence in Yukxin City, you..."
"Don't give me any nonsense, you only have ten seconds left!"
"Shalan, do you really want to offend us..."
"boom!"
A gunshot was heard. Gro looked at Shalan who fired a shot into the darkness beside him. He couldn't help swallowing his saliva and immediately slid down the rope. However, the resentment on his face almost overflowed from his face, and there was a trace of strong anger and murderous intent in his eyes.
But Gro was a smart guy. When he landed, he immediately spoke to Ailan earnestly and sincerely, "Ailan, it was all my fault just now. I was too impulsive and too scared. I really didn't mean it. Please believe me and hurry up."
As he spoke, Gro was looking at the darkness behind him. The sound of the gray-white giant snake swimming on the ground was getting louder and louder, accompanied by the hoarse screams of some people who did not have time to come over or were hiding somewhere else. It was obvious that the gray-white giant snake found some people hiding somewhere else nearby and started to bite them!
Ailan didn't say anything to Grodo. Although she was a little naive, she was not stupid. She could tell whether a person was doing something intentional or unintentional, and whether he was well-intentioned or malicious. But now was not the time to talk about those things.
Ailan grabbed the rope and climbed up quickly. After Amanda climbed up, the other teacher from Rosenberg University also climbed up quickly. After climbing up, he helped Shalan pull up the various backpacks and resources tied to the second rope little by little.
Fu grabbed Ailan's arm and dragged her up. At this time, Gro couldn't wait to climb up. It was at this time that a huge shadow appeared in front of everyone. The gray-white giant snake quickly approached everyone!
Seeing the gray-white giant snake coming, Gro cried out immediately, "Help me up quickly, help me up quickly!"
Shalan and Guona grabbed the rope together and quickly pulled Gro up from the bottom. If Shalan was alone, he might not bother with teammates like Gro and Amanda who made trouble at the critical moment.
It was they who delayed the departure time, it was they who were asked to guard the temporary camp but they fell asleep, resulting in the failure to discover the existence of the gray-white giant snake in time, and it was they who pulled Ailan down from the rope after she had climbed halfway.
This kind of person was definitely a big scourge when Shalan was robbing tombs in her previous life. Those with a kind heart would immediately expel such a person, while those with a cruel heart would have shot him to death long ago.
But now it's not just Shalan himself, there are also Fu, Ailan and others. He can't deliberately kill Gro here. If everyone died in that case, it would be fine, but if they went back alive, it would be a big trouble.
However, although Shalan saved Gro at this time, it did not mean that he intended to let Gro leave here alive. He knew very well that Gro must be full of resentment towards him, and his family had considerable influence in the new city of Yuk. Naturally, he would not let a person who had great evil intentions towards him leave this place!
The moment Grola was pulled up, the head of the gray giant snake was right in front of the window. Its eyes, which had almost degenerated and only had very low vision, stared at Shalan and others in the window for a while, then turned and left, disappearing into the darkness, disappearing in front of everyone.
When the gray giant snake left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They had escaped from the snake's mouth. As for those who didn't have time to catch it... they probably died.
After a short rest, everyone simply counted their equipment and resources. They were lucky because Shalan and Fu were carrying backpacks and brought quite a few things. If they used food and water sparingly, they would be enough for them to survive for two or three days. As for things like flashlights and batteries, there would be no problem if they used them sparingly.
After the things were distributed, most of the things, especially food and water, were placed in the backpacks of Shalan, Fu and Guona. As for the other empty backpacks, they were filled with various preparations and medicines. Although Gro and Amanda had some opinions on this distribution method, they still remembered what happened just now very clearly. Due to the gun in Shalan's hand, they did not dare to argue with Shalan at this time and temporarily quieted down.
