Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren)

Chantelle's mouth opened wide as she was about to scream. Fortunately, Andrew reacted quickly and covered her mouth with his hand while drawing his hunting knife to watch the slowly opening coffin lid.

The owner of the bloody hand stood up with a pained expression, muttering, "Damn it! I swear I'm going to kill that monster."

Both of them breathed a sigh of relief as they watched Kevin climb out of the coffin.

Andrew looked at him suspiciously and asked, "Are you injured?"

Kevin's face was grim as he replied, "That monster took two clips from me, and I nearly lost an arm. Luckily, I learned from you and hid in a coffin, which saved my life."

"Kevin, you're pretty quick-witted," Andrew said with a smile.

Kevin snarled back, "Cut the crap, Andrew! The Wright family hasn't gained anything on this treasure hunt, and we've lost more than half our people. Now you're going to figure out a way to get me into that tomb chamber, or I'll blow your brains out!"

Then, he pressed his Desert Eagle directly against Andrew's head with a vicious expression.

Chantelle angrily protested, "Mr. Wright Senior, what's gotten into you? There's an evil spirit right outside! If you fire that gun and attract the Night Hag, you'll die too."

Kevin replied menacingly, "Screw that! If this guy doesn't follow my orders, I'll kill him first and then escape on my own. The Wright family can withdraw from this treasure hunt if necessary, but Andrew, you're going to die!"

With a sharp crack, Andrew slapped the Desert Eagle right out of Kevin's hand.

Kevin could not believe it. "Are you really not afraid to die?"

Andrew stepped forward two paces, getting right in Kevin's face with ice-cold eyes. "Kevin, if you've got the guts, shoot me right now! I

if you pull that trigger. And l

guarantee you'll be the one who dies

the

Wright family's deaths have

absolutely nothing to do with me! Your incompetent rage is just showing that you're responsible for all the casualties your family has suffered."

Kevin's face contorted with intense hatred. He walked over to pick up his gun but

did not dare point it at Andrew again.

"Fine, I won't settle my beef with you

right now since that beast is still lurking outside. So what do you think we should do?" He asked through

gritted teeth while treating the

wound on his arm.

Fortunately, his combat skills were decent enough to escape from the Night Hag's claws.

"There's no way out. Death is our only ending," Andrew stated coldly.

Kevin was stunned and turned to Chantelle. "Ms. Garcia, make him think of something. He's the only one here who knows anything about tomb raiding."

Chantelle looked troubled. "Mr. Lloyd, please try to find a way to locate the others first. We've been separated for so long-aren't you worried about them?"noveldrama

"I drew the Night Hag over here, so they should be safe as long as they don't run around carelessly. So, there's nothing for me to worry about," Andrew replied calmly.

Chantelle was speechless. "What about yourself? Are you just going to wait here to die?"

Andrew sneered and said, "If I were

alone, escaping would be incredibly

easy. The only problem is that you

are a deadweight. So once you two leave, I'll naturally have my own way to get out."

Chantelle became furious with embarrassment. "Mr. Lloyd, are you trying to abandon me?"

Andrew replied coldly, "You've basically ignored everything I've said this whole trip and opposed me at every turn!"
