Chapter 568 Six Hundred and Fifty Feet
The sudden voice echoed in the empty secret palace, and Eudora was so frightened that she was out
of her wits.
Turning around, she saw Colbert standing not far away, walking towards her.
Eudora was wearing underwear. Although she was shy, the situation was grim, and she didn't care
about anything else. "What are you doing here?" She asked.
Colbert showed his cell phone, and a faint smile appeared on his haggard face. "I knew you would
come here when I saw the message you sent me."
"Right. When I saw the water you put in the room, I knew there was an underground river nearby, and I
found it here. You see, the water is flowing, which means there must be an exit. I want to dive down to
check it."
She excitedly told Colbert about her finding.
She looked like a child discovering a shocking secret.
"You are very smart."
Colbert walked to her, stood by the underground river, staring at the flowing river, and said, "Last night,
I found it while you were asleep, and there is an exit. But it's six hundred and fifty feet from here. You
can't get out at all."
His were tinged with tenderness, his pale lips twisting slightly, and he said, "I didn't leave because I
wanted to wait for you to wake up and tell you about this, and then I'll go out and get someone."Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
Colbert paused before he continued, "The end of the water is a cliff, and above it is a hole more than
sixty-six feet high. It will take some time to climb up. Moreover, there is no signal below."
"Six hundred and fifty feet?"
It took a professional athlete one to two minutes to swim six hundred and fifty feet, while non-
professional athletes and people with excellent water skills needed five or six minutes.
The position where they were standing was the entrance of the water flow to the undercurrent. That
was to say, after diving underwater, there was no way to breathe, and they could only hold their breath.
Colbert's wound was infected, and his hand was injured. It was extremely difficult for him to swim to the
end and climb to the top of the sixty-six feet hole.
"Even if you go out, you can't climb up there with your hand like this."
Eudora was very worried about Colbert.
"Why? You don't believe me?"
He raised his eyebrows and smiled.
His smile was quite gentle, like the spring breeze bathing Eudora's heart.
He hadn't shaved for two days, and some stubble had grown on his chin, which brought him some
mature sexiness and charm.
"It's not that I don't believe you. I just don't want to see you force yourself. If you die, I may die here
too."
Facing the grim reality, Eudora was not in the mood to joke.
Although Colbert swam to the end last night, and it was enough to show that his physical strength and
endurance were excellent, it was very likely that the extreme physical exertion last night accelerated
the wound infection and caused his high fever today.
Once a person had a high fever, the body temperature would drop rapidly, and the physical power was
nothing compared to normal.
