Rescuing Samantha and sending a distress signal are two goals that do not conflict.

Because, the location of the wireless tower is on the way to the Solari base.

Ross was right, the distress signal had to be sent out, because only then would the rescue team come to pick them up and leave.

Although Lu Qiming knew that no one could leave the island until Himiko was killed.

Even if the rescue team drove helicopters and planes to rescue them, they would be shot down by the storm controlled by Himiko.

However, he did not make his point, nor did he dispute it.

He knew that other people would simply not agree with this seemingly absurd fact.

They would never have imagined that Himiko, who had been dead for thousands of years, could rely on powerful magic power to control the storm and seal off the entire island, preventing anyone from entering or leaving.

This has nothing to do with trust or vision, it is simply a collision between the three views and the unknown.

Before witnessing it with their own eyes, they will not believe that this island has supernatural powers that cannot be explained by science...

Since Rose suffered a leg injury and was unable to climb, this important task naturally fell on Lu Qi and Laura.

In order to recuperate from his injuries, and to wait for Reyes and the others to join him, Rose stayed in the bonfire camp.

As for Lu Qi and Laura, after sleeping for a few hours and eating some canned food brought by Lu Qi, they set off in good spirits.

. . .

Bang!

The sharp ice ax blade was inserted into the wind and rain-eroded mountain wall and stuck firmly.

Then, use the ice ax as a fulcrum to find a foothold, use hands and feet together, and climb up...

On the steep rock wall, a man surnamed Lu and a woman surnamed Lao stuck their bodies as close to the potholed surface wall as possible, trying to climb up.

Their ears were full of roaring winds, and their bodies were being washed by the torrential rain. Apart from the strong will in their hearts, the only thing that supported them from falling was the ice axe, an artifact of mountaineering they held tightly in their hands.

Five minutes ago, the two had just walked out of the village not far away, and the long-simmering storm over the island still arrived as expected.

The storm, coupled with the steep terrain and harsh environmental factors, did not shake Lu Qi and Laura's determination to move on.

Originally, Lu Qi's ice ax had already been given to Laura.

If Rose hadn't handed him the ice ax that he carried with him, relying on his own hands and feet, and the skill level of [Climbing Skill LV2], Lu Qi really couldn't calmly climb the slippery mountain wall.

clatter...

Glancing at the mountain waterfall just above, and a wooden bridge standing in the middle of the waterfall, Lu Qi sighed in his heart at the uncanny workmanship of nature while climbing up.

From the forest along the coast, to the temples in the mountains, and then to the current mountain villages, they went up all the way, the altitude was getting higher and higher, but the ancient buildings around them still stood tall.

He couldn't imagine how the Yamatai Kingdom built these buildings in such a terrain thousands of years ago.

And these wooden buildings,

How did you persist until now, and it hasn't rotted yet...

With such messy thoughts in mind, Lu Qi took the lead to climb up the wooden platform beside the waterfall, stepped on the simple wooden bridge in front of the waterfall, and walked to the opposite side of the bridge.

Laura was slightly behind, planning to wait for Lu Qi to pass by before stepping onto the wooden bridge.

Maybe it was in disrepair for a long time, or maybe it was some special reason, the moment Lu Qi just walked to the opposite side, a sudden change occurred!

There was only a "click", and the load-bearing columns supporting the entire wooden bridge suddenly broke.

In the next second, with a bang, the entire wooden bridge began to collapse, and a section of the bridge deck on the opposite side fell immediately.

With only half of the complete bridge deck left, it also began to tilt forward rapidly.

And Laura, still on the bridge!

Seeing this, Lu Qi, who was standing on the opposite side of the bridge, his pupils dilated suddenly, and subconsciously exclaimed:

"Laura!!!"

Appeared!

A must-have passive skill for tomb robbers—where to go!

In the blink of an eye, Laura reacted quickly, and did not choose to retreat, but accelerated her pace, like a sprint for a hundred meters, stepping on the forward-sloping bridge deck, and leaping towards the opposite side of the bridge!

"Ah~~~"

With a low growl, Laura flew out with her whole body.

However, when she flew into the air, Laura realized that with her own jumping power, she seemed unable to jump onto the opposite platform!

Just as her body began to fall, a big hand suddenly appeared and grabbed her arm!

"I got you!"

Listening to the reassuring voice and seeing Lu Qi's resolute face, Laura blinked, and there was only one thought left in her mind:

How many times is this?

Even Laura can't remember how many times Lu Qi extended a helping hand to her...

Although Laura has a very tall figure, her front is convex and her waist is still very thin. However, she is a petite beauty, and her weight is not heavy.

For Lu Qi, he could easily pull him up from the edge of the cliff with one hand.

As soon as Laura was pulled up, Lu Qi's first sentence was the annual death-seeking speech of the straight man of steel:

"It's time for you to lose weight, Laura..."

Laura, who originally wanted to thank Lu Qi, knew that she was joking when she heard this, so she immediately slapped Lu Qi's arm and said coquettishly:

"It's not about the weight! The bridge is too old!"

The straight man who was beaten had a strong desire to survive, and immediately nodded in agreement:

"Yes, yes, I think so too..."

Laura was right.

If the wooden bridge was really due to the weight, then Lu Qi would have collapsed long ago when he was crossing the bridge. Why wait until the lighter Laura got on the bridge and then start to collapse?

This can only be blamed on shit luck, or some kind of special treatment for the protagonist...

Looking back at the empty space, Lu Qi couldn't help shrugging, and then said:

"Looks like we can only keep going..."

As soon as the words fell, the yellow walkie-talkie on Laura's waist, just like a discussion, suddenly sounded Reyes' voice:

"Laura, Lu Qi, are you there?"

"Yes! Reyes, how are you all?"

"Fortunately, we have almost reached the meeting point. How are you doing?"

In the intercom, Laura first said something about Ross, and then went on to say:

"So... we're going to go to the wireless tower and try to send out a distress signal, any suggestions?"

At this time, Alex's voice came from the other end of the walkie-talkie:

"Laura, Lucy, this is Alex. Listen, you need to find the com console, it looks like an old-fashioned switchboard..."

"Okay, I'll tell you when we find it."

Putting the walkie-talkie back on her waist, she looked up at the tower top with the red lights flashing in the distance. Laura took a deep breath, and her eyes suddenly became firm:

"That's right, we can only keep going..."
