Chapter 73: Swallowed by the swamp
"Help!" Chelsie cried out in panic, waving her hands above the surface of the swamp. "I can’t..."
"Elsie, grab my hand!"
Chelsie tried to grab Nalira’s hand, but her hands were too slippery and she couldn’t touch Nalira’s hand at all. Slowly, Chelsie’s body sank into the swamp until she finally disappeared from the surface. "Oh my god, hang on, Chelsie. I’ll help you right away."
Shaan immediately jumped into the swamp and started looking for Chelsie. However, he forgot that it was very dark inside the swamp. It was so dark that he couldn’t see anything around him.
"Damn, what should I do? How can I find Chelsie?"
As Shaan stood in the darkness, he suddenly saw a golden orange light above the surface of the swamp, coming from the boat. At first, the light seemed very small, but gradually it grew larger until he could finally see the situation in the swamp, although it was still vague.
"Good, now it’s my chance to find Chelsie."
Shaan scanned the area around him, but strangely, he couldn’t see anything. Slowly, he shifted his gaze lower, and his face immediately tensed when he saw that Chelsie was at the bottom of the swamp. Her body was completely motionless, and it looked like she had lost consciousness. Realizing this, Shaan immediately swam towards Chelsie as fast as he could.
"Hang in there, Chelsie. I’ll help you right away."
With all his strength, Shaan immediately brought Chelsie to the surface of the swamp as quickly as possible. However, a rumbling sound suddenly came from beneath Shaan, and just a few seconds later, something shot out from the bottom of the swamp.
’Fwoosh’
A burst of water appeared right in front of Shaan’s eyes, turning his face pale like a living corpse. Damn. Luckily, he managed to dodge it just in time. If he had been even a little late in moving, they would both have died instantly from the water blast.
