Tomb Raider: Evolution of the Red Dragon, Starting from the Ancient City of Jingjue

Chapter 197 Prehistoric Salamander, Nine-Story Demon Tower

Fatty Wang asked, "Is there an underground river underneath?"

Hu Bayi said: "The underground river system of Kunlun Glacier is well developed. It is normal to have underground rivers. I have seen unfrozen springs in Kunlun Glacier before. It is really a wonder."

Chatting and laughing, everyone left the cave and came to a river.

This underground river blocked their way.

Jiang Hua also knew that there was a prehistoric salamander in this place!
Very fierce!

"There really is an underground river. We have to wade across it now."

Fatty Wang said.

Chen Wenjin shone the flashlight around and suddenly saw some words on the wall!
"Look!"

When everyone looked at the words on the wall, they found that they were like scribbles and were completely incomprehensible.

Only Hu Bayi and Wang Pangzi glared.

Fatty Wang said, "Old Hu, why do I feel that this text looks so familiar?"

Hu Bayi said: "This is ghost cave writing!"

Fatty Wang immediately understood.

So Hu Bayi asked, "Master Jiang, what exactly is inside this cave?"

Jiang Hua said: "The end point is just across the street, go over and take a look and you will know."

After saying that, Jiang Hua took the lead and walked into the water, and then began to walk to the other side. When everyone saw that Jiang Hua was fine in the water, they hurried to follow.

"Hey, this is a thermostatic one, it's very warm down there."

Fatty Wang said in surprise.

Hu Bayi said: "Sometimes, floor heating may not be a good thing.

Fatty Wang said, "What does this mean? Is it a good thing that the water is icy cold?"

Hu Bayi: "If you feel comfortable, other things will feel comfortable too."

At this time, Jiang Hua said: "Everyone who can hurry up, get to the shore, there is something in this underground river."

After hearing what Jiang Hua said, Fatty Wang and the others didn't dare to delay any longer and quickly sped up.

Soon, Jiang Hua was the first to go ashore.

Everyone looked around and went ashore one after another.

However, soon everyone discovered something!

"Zhao Shui is missing!"

Luo Que said in a low voice.

Zhao Shui is from the Crescent Hotel. Now it seems that there are only five people left in the Crescent Hotel including Luo Que, which means there is indeed one person missing.

Hu Bayi asked, "Did anyone see it?"

Jiang Hua said directly: "Let's go! It's too dangerous!"

Now, the people from the Crescent Hotel were unhappy. One of the young men said, "Mr. Jiang, our people haven't been found yet, how can we leave?"

After a pause, he looked at Luo Que: "Brother Luo! We are cooperating with him, not being cannon fodder. Why didn't he even look for our people when they disappeared?"

"Shut up!"

Luo Que shouted coldly: "Who do you think you are? When we come here, we have to listen to Mr. Jiang in everything!"

The young man had a grim look on his face, gritted his teeth, and prepared to turn back to look for the missing person.

However, at this moment, bubbles appeared on the water surface. Then, a huge head emerged from the bottom of the water and opened its mouth to bite the young man.

"careful!"

Luo Que's face changed. He grabbed the young man's shoulder and dragged him back, thus avoiding the mouth of the giant beast.

"Boom!"

The giant beast fell to the ground, and everyone looked and found that it was actually an extremely huge lizard!

It was the prehistoric salamander.

Everyone gasped.

"Zhao Shui was eaten by this thing."

Luo Que said in a low voice.

He saw the rag beside the lizard's mouth, which was exactly the clothes Zhao Shui was wearing!

The young man who was rescued by Luo Que looked at the lizard with a pale face.

If Luo Que hadn't pulled him back in time, he would have been eaten by this thing just like Zhao Shui. They finally understood why Jiang Hua wanted them to leave quickly!

It must be Jiang Hua who knows that there is something in the water!

"Go quickly!"

Hu Bayi and his companions didn’t dare to stay here because of such a big thing. They shouted and retreated.

The prehistoric salamander obviously didn't want to let them go, so it chased them and bit them.

Hu Bayi and his men were about to shoot, but Jiang Hua shouted at them, "Don't shoot!"

Behind them is the Nine-story Demon Tower, which is full of fire beetles. Once the gunshots are heard, the fire beetles will surely be alarmed, and then these people will not know how they died.

After being scolded by Jiang Hua, they didn't dare to shoot and quickly retreated.

Jiang Hua took a step forward, jumped up and kicked the prehistoric salamander on the head.

"Ow!"

The prehistoric salamander screamed miserably, its head was bleeding, and it didn't dare to chase anymore, so it quickly returned to the river.

"Kuixing kick fight!"

After Jiang Hua forced the prehistoric salamander to retreat, he retreated and said calmly, "Let's go."

The crowd left the river and came to a cave. Jiang Hua stopped and looked into the depths of the cave. He said calmly, "The Nine-story Demon Tower is ahead. Now there are some things I must make clear."

He turned and looked at the others, his eyes falling on each of them. The others were fine, except for a few people from the Crescent Hotel who lowered their heads in guilt and shame.

Jiang Hua said: "I didn't invite any of you here, nor did I force you to come. I, Jiang Hua, have no regrets about anything I have done. I have no obligation to guarantee the safety of any of you. Every step forward from now on will be extremely dangerous for you. It's not too late for you to withdraw now. Get out now."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone fell silent, especially those in the Crescent Hotel. The young man lowered his head tightly.

He now understood that the reason Jiang Hua asked them to leave quickly was to save them.

With Jiang Hua's strength, the big lizard couldn't do anything to him!
Luo Que took a deep breath and said to Jiang Hua, "Master Jiang, my people didn't know how to talk before and offended you. I brought him to apologize to you. I'm sorry! This kind of thing will never happen again in the future!"

"Boss!"

The young man shouted, and then said to Jiang Hua: "Master Jiang! I'm sorry! I was the one who bit Lu Dongbin before, I was wrong! Don't worry, I will definitely behave myself in the future and will never go against your wishes!"

Jiang Hua said nothing, turned around and continued walking forward.

Fatty Wang and Hu Bayi looked at each other and hurried to catch up.

"Master Jiang, is the Nine-story Demon Tower really located here?"

Fatty Wang asked.

Jiang Hua stopped and pointed ahead: "Look for yourselves."

Hu Bayi and the others also stopped and looked forward. They shone the flashlight on the front and saw that the road ahead had opened up. Under a huge hollow cave, a majestic and strange monster building appeared in front of them!
The Nine-Story Demon Tower was finally found!

In this empty cave, a nine-story building filled with mummies appeared in front of them.

Not only was it filled with mummies, it also emitted a faint blue light, making it possible to see clearly even without a light source in the entire cave.

When Chuyi saw this scene, he knelt down and kowtowed to the Nine-story Demon Tower, muttering some Tibetan that Jiang Hua and the others could not understand.

Hu Bayi whispered, "Turn off the flashlight. Don't disturb the blue dots on the mummies!"

Luo Que and others obediently turned off the flashlight.

Fatty Wang asked, "What should we do now? There are so many bugs on the Nine-story Demon Tower. We probably can't go up."

Jiang Hua didn't say anything, but he was already walking forward.

The others looked at each other and quickly followed Jiang Hua.

Soon, everyone arrived not far in front of the Nine-story Demon Tower. The closer they got, the more they could see its grandeur. The mummies on it looked hideous and hideous, with fire beetles lying on them. Occasionally, one or two fire beetles flew out and landed on other mummies.

The first floor of the Nine-story Demon Tower is very spacious. There is a coffin in the middle, and some mummies are hung around it, looking like pendants.

Of course, there are also many burial objects.

But these burial objects are all very large.

Jiang Hua said, "The Nine-Story Demon Tower has nine floors. The higher up the floor, the more precious the person buried there is, which means they are above all other living beings. The crystal corpse we are looking for is the Ghost Mother Crystal House, who has supreme power in the Demon Kingdom, so the Ghost Mother's crystal corpse should be on the top floor of the Nine-Story Demon Tower."

When Uncle Ming heard that the crystal corpse was on the top floor, he quickly said, "Then let's go to the top floor!"

Jiang Hua said, "Don't worry. There is also a coffin here. Let's see if there are any good things inside."

Although the high-level Guge Silver Eye is said to be in the Nine-story Demon Tower, the Nine-story Demon Tower is so big, who knows where it is?

What if it is inside the coffin in front of me?
It would be such a shame if we missed it.

Fatty Wang was overjoyed: "Haha, Master Jiang is wise."

Fatty Wang’s goal is not to miss any coffin that can hold burial objects. Wherever he goes, no grass will grow!
