Chapter 88 Hatching
Shalan only pulled back a rope hanging outside the tower, and left a rope connected to the steel spike hanging outside, considering that if someone survived by chance, they could also climb up through the rope to avoid the gray-white giant snake.
With their heads slightly lowered, the group of seven walked inside. Since they had already entered the Silaya Tower, they might as well explore upwards and try to find the entrance and exit on the top floor of the Silaya Tower to leave.
Walking to the end of the passage, Shallan shone the flashlight down and immediately saw an empty hall. On the walls around the hall , there were a large number of sculptures of people, both men and women. Each sculpture had a strange expression of pain and glory on its face, just like a real person. On the naked bodies of these sculptures, there were a large number of carvings of strange snakes drilling into the bodies of these men and women, which immediately reminded Shallan of the male teacher at the University of Birona who was penetrated by a strange snake.
He used a flashlight to illuminate the ground and confirmed that it was just a smooth surface before he nailed two more steel spikes to connect the rope, slid down the rope, and landed on the ground below.
Fu and others followed closely behind, sliding down the rope from the passage one by one.
After landing, Fu and Guona almost immediately came to the wall next to the hall, looked at the reliefs and words on the wall and began to think slowly.
Shalan walked around the hall and finally found an exit. Looking inside the exit , Shalan could see a spiral staircase built between the back of the hall wall and the body of the Silaya Tower. This should be able to lead to a higher level of space.
After returning to the hall from the exit, Shalan was just about to call others to go up with him, but suddenly he found that Gro and Amanda were gathered together, using a small knife to carefully pick up a black gem on the wall.
Shaking his head helplessly, Shallan turned to look at the black gems inlaid irregularly on the wall beside him. Suddenly, he saw a few dents on the wall, and the black gems that were supposed to be inlaid on it were gone.
With an eyebrow raised slightly, Shalan's first thought was that someone else might have been here, so they took away the gems on the wall. But then Shalan felt a little strange. If someone really came here and took away the black gems, then why didn't they take more and leave? This thing is not too heavy, wouldn't it be better to take more?
Shalan walked forward and wanted to carefully examine what these black gems were made of, but at this moment, he suddenly heard a slight clicking sound under his feet. Looking down at the ground under his feet, Shalan immediately saw half of a black gem that was cracked by his step.
Reaching out and picking up the half black gem, Shalan realized that it was not just half a black gem, but a completely black eggshell-like thing, but the material looked very similar to a gem.
"eggshell……"
Muttering to herself, Shalan suddenly thought of those strange snakes and looked up at the reliefs on the wall. There were many spherical carvings under the feet of the men and women, some of which were intact, some had cracks, and some were completely split. A strange snake swam out of them and drilled into the calf of a woman.
With her eyes wide open, Shalan finally understood what these things that looked like black gems were. These black gems inlaid on the wall were actually some strange snake eggs that looked like black gems!
"Don't touch those black gems. They are the eggs of those strange snakes!"
After hearing Shalan's words, Fu, Guona and others who had not touched the snake eggs that looked like black gems were fine. They just moved away immediately and stopped sticking to the wall to study something. However, Gro and Amanda, who were just taking the snake eggs off the wall one by one, were stunned for a moment and looked at the snake eggs in their hands that looked like black gems in disbelief. They were reluctant to let go for a moment.
"This, this is clearly a gem. Don't be so ignorant. Or do you want to keep this thing for yourself?"
Looking at Amanda who was speaking, Shallan sneered and said to her directly: "You can take those things, but don't follow us. If you want to die, at least don't drag us down."
"Gero, and Amanda, you should throw the things away quickly, otherwise it will be too late if you really encounter danger."
Gro and Amanda had never seen a strange snake, so they naturally had no fear of it. However, after hearing what Shalan and Ailan said, no matter how greedy they were for the snake eggs that looked like black gems, they finally chose to put down the snake eggs temporarily to save their lives.
Putting the snake eggs on the ground casually, Gro looked at them reluctantly and walked towards Sala and others. But at this moment, he suddenly found that Amanda was not following him. Turning to look at Amanda, Gro found that Amanda was holding the snake eggs in her hand with a troubled expression, and it was obvious that she did not want to give up these snake eggs that were like black gems.
"These... these are clearly gems, clearly gems. Did you make a mistake? How could these be snake eggs? If I take these things out, even if I only take two or three, it will be enough to make me a huge fortune. I don't want to give up. I want to take them back. As long as I can take them back, I will immediately get enough wealth. I..."
“Crack…”
Before she could finish her words, under the influence of Amanda's body temperature, the strange snake baby in the black gemstone-like snake egg finally revived and hatched under the temperature of Amanda's palm that she was reluctant to let go of!
The black gem-like eggshell cracked open, and strange snake larvae with no eyes and mouths evolved into mouthparts crawled out of the eggshell, swimming slowly around Amanda's body with their mucus-covered bodies.
Seeing that the black gem had indeed turned into snake eggs and hatched a bunch of strange black snakes, Amanda was stunned for a moment in disbelief, and then immediately swung her arms to try to throw out the strange snake hatchlings that were wrapped around her palms and wrists. But when Amanda screamed and swung her arms, the strange snake hatchlings opened their four-petal mouthparts, tore Amanda's skin and drilled into her body.
No matter how Amanda tried to grab the snakes with her hands, she was helpless against the thick mucus on their bodies. She could only cry and watch as the snakes drilled into her body!
