Chapter 225: Chapter 207: Evil Spirits Linger or Ghost Soldiers Passing?

"Throw away the backpacks! Take the two of them and run!" Sean Knight ordered Elijah Hastings and Lincoln Harrington!

The heavy backpacks slowed down their escape, if they continued like this, only Sean and the others could have potentially survived.

He had no intention of surviving alone!

Elijah Hastings and Lincoln Harrington immediately dropped their backpacks. Then, Elijah picked up Hans Hunter and sped forward, while Lincoln carried Mila Ward and dashed forward!

Even at this time, Lin Harrington didn’t leave behind the bag filled with golden sand.

Sean could imagine that before Lincoln came, he probably didn’t have a good life at home, otherwise, he wouldn’t be so money-bound.

Or perhaps no one would be willing to leave their hometown and gamble with their lives in a place thousands of miles away unless they didn’t have a choice.

Wouldn’t it be better for him to stay at home peacefully?

As Sean thought about this, he did not slow down his steps. Instead, he exerted all his strength to speed up and ran to the jungle, threw his backpack, turned around and ran back, took the backpacks from Elijah and Lincoln, and ran back again!

He could feel the ground under his feet trembling. The next moment it would collapse, quicksand would emerge, swallowing everything!

"Faster! Even faster!" Sean Knight yelled desperately. Since he got the Sky Eye, he felt that he used all his strength for the first time, but it was still not enough!

Finally, Elijah, with Hans, Lincoln with Mila, and Sean carrying the cumbersome backpacks, rushed into the jungle.

At this moment, feeling the trembling beneath his feet lessened, Sean slowed his steps and looked back, witnessing a spectacular sight:

The ground’s changes stopped at an empty square that was about the size of a football field, and when it reached the jungle, it became calm!

Letting out a sigh of relief, Sean nearly stumbled. At this moment, a dark figure suddenly shot in front of him, kneeled down and bowed repeatedly!

Sean was so startled that he almost kicked this figure away. Then he saw that the dark figure was Septimius Coleman!

Sean smiled wryly and gestured for him to get away!

This place might not be safe either, it would be better to move further in.

He told the others:

"Alright, let’s rest here for a bit, we still need to move out. I don’t know if this place will also collapse later."

Hans was a bit dejected:

"Sigh! Who would have thought that a collapse would suddenly occur inside? Otherwise, we would be..."

He had a regretful look on his face: "The gold and gemstones I got, all of them fell into the pitfall, now, I have nothing left."

Sean patted his own backpack and said with a smile:

"We still have some here. At least we didn’t return empty-handed, right?"

Hans didn’t expect Sean to say that, he was taken aback, then laughed and said:

"Yep, Mr. Sean Knight, you’re really generous! Rest assured! These gold and gemstones are loans from you! Once I have the helicopter here, get the engineering team to excavate here, those gold and gemstones will still be ours! I’ll return twice, no, five times! I’ll give you back five times the amount!"

Sean smiled, thinking it probably wouldn’t be that easy!

Just then, unusual sounds came from behind them!

"Look!" Mila pointed at the lake and screamed, "What’s that?"

Sean turned his head and saw that the once empty land had turned into sandy beach and there were fountains erupting from it, but now it was water shooting out!

Like fountains, the thick water columns were blasting the sand into the air then showering it down.

Strangely enough, the water falling on the sand, along with the sand, sank down!

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Three water columns shot out one after another, and the sand continued sinking!

Is this place going to turn into a lake?

Sean turned to look at Hans and found his face had gone pale!

If this continued, it would be impossible to excavate here!

Hans’s expression was like he had just swallowed a fly!

He stared at Sean, his trembling hand pointed at the lake and said:

"How...How can this happen?"

Sean Knight smiled bitterly, he didn’t know either.

"Look! It seems like a person was spouted out?" Suddenly, Elijah pointed at the water column and said, "Is that... Green?"

Sean looked over quickly, seeing a figure falling from the top of the water column.

It looked like it really was Green!

Lincoln suddenly spoke:

"Could it be that they triggered some mechanism, and that’s why the underground palace collapsed?"

No one said anything.

But this was highly possible!

Because after entering the palace, apart from Sean and Hans, nobody else touched anything.

And the two of them, Sean and Hans, were only collecting gold and gemstones, they didn’t touch anything else.

Therefore, the possibility was that Jason and Gessen had touched something they shouldn’t have touched!

This could be a case of shifting blame, but this was what they all thought.

"Forget it, there’s no use discussing a probably dead person." Sean said, "Let’s take a rest and move out further."

The cloud overhead hadn’t drifted away yet, but there was no sand to be seen on the ground, it had all turned into water.

And the water level was also dropping, this place was turning into a big pit of water!

The water was no longer shooting upwards, but was surging beneath the surface.

However, the air was still very humid.

Just then, Septimius suddenly pointed at the "Lake" and screamed!

The others jumped at his cry!

Having experienced many startling events today, they couldn’t help cursing!

However, when they turned to look at the lake, all their mouths dropped open!

Elijah rarely cursed:

"Holy shit!"

Above the lake, a water curtain movie was playing!
