Chapter 983 Sphinx 2
There is nothing else in this place except the "pyramid" in front of you. The so-called king's sword can only be on this tower.
The three of them continued climbing.
Under the scorching sun, the solid and flat stones gradually became hotter. The higher they went up and closer to the sun, the hotter they became.
After climbing up to an unknown number of floors, they stopped to rest. Looking down from a high place, they all laughed when they saw Pan Xiaoxin who was still huffing and puffing up the steps below.
"You kid, why didn't you get out of here?" A tall and thin man yelled.
Pan Xiaoxin stopped, looked up at them, then withdrew his gaze and rested on the spot.
He always kept a distance of more than twenty steps from those three people.
"Hey!" The tall and thin man shouted again with a smile, "Little Guitou, aren't you anxious? If you don't catch up, the sword will be snatched away by us!"
Pan Xiaoxin ignored it and silently took out water from his schoolbag to drink, looking very calm.
This made the tall and thin man very embarrassed. He picked up a handful of gravel and raised his hand to throw it, but was stopped by someone beside him.
"Daniel." A dark-skinned strong man said, "He is just a kid."
"I know." The tall and thin man smiled, "Just teasing him~"
As he spoke, he threw away the handful of gravel in his hand——
Small pebbles rolled down the steps, bounced, and sparsely fell beside Pan Xiaoxin. One or two hit Xiaoxin's back. He looked back at them.
The tall and lanky man named Daniel grinned as if he had succeeded in a mischief.
Pan Xiaoxin frowned, "Childish."
Daniel: "..."
Pan Xiaoxin took out a folding umbrella from his schoolbag, opened it, covered his body, and continued to rest.
Daniel sneered, "The little brat is pretty cool."
He had nothing to do and looked up at the sky. The sun was making his skin itchy and the air was unusually hot.
"If I had known better, I would have brought an umbrella in." Daniel squeezed the empty bottle after drinking water and rummaged through his bag again. There was no sunshade.
"Do you still have water?" Another friend named Miute asked, "I only brought one bottle."
The black man took a bottle from his bag and handed it over, "Why don't you bring more bottles?"
"Who knew we would encounter such a game, and the preparation time was so short..." Mutter raised his head and drank water to relieve the heat. "I think we can slow down later. This tower is too high, the sun is too poisonous, and we have to climb too fast. Can’t stand it.”
Daniel disagreed: "This place is not covered. If you climb slowly, aren't you afraid of being dried in the sun? You'd better hurry up and climb to a place with trees to rest!"
Miute frowned, "But it's still far away from the tree..."
Daniel pointed down and said, "Not a single child shouted."
Mute frowned and looked at the black man, "Bruce, what's your opinion?"
The black man said solemnly: "We don't have much water. Going too fast can easily overwhelm our energy, and it will be bad if we get heat stroke, so we'd better keep the speed moderate. It's noon now, and when the sun goes down, it shouldn't be so hot." "
Matt nodded: "Yes, we can wait until the sun sets before accelerating."
Daniel curled his lips and replied lazily: "Okay, just do this."
The three rested for a few more minutes, packed their bags, and climbed up again.
Pan Xiaoxin always paid attention to them. When he saw them starting to take action, he quickly packed up and climbed up.
It's getting hotter.
The steps made of boulders were hot, and the hazy tree shadows in the distance seemed increasingly out of reach in the heat wave.
The three people in front were inevitably sweating profusely and drank up all the water quickly.
Daniel looked down and found that Pan Xiaoxin was still following them closely, and he couldn't help but feel angry.
"Damn it, why is this little brat still following you?"
He stopped, took off his backpack and took out a slingshot.
"What are you doing?" Bruce frowned, "That's just a kid."
"Although he is just a child, he is still an enemy." Daniel aimed at Pan Xiaoxin below and raised the corner of his mouth, "We will never cause any further trouble, isn't it good?"
