My Beauty Collection: Starting from Banshee Town

Chapter 155 Watchtower
Carly and Dahlia reacted quickly, pulling the struggling Jesse into the woods.

Ethan gritted his teeth, and fired the last two bullets in the magazine with anger.

The two people holding bows and arrows were killed one after another.

Every time a gunshot rang out, someone's head would explode.

Even though these people were mentally retarded, they felt the terror, and they were frightened and threw themselves to the ground.

Ethan also took this opportunity to run up the hillside.

He was extremely fast, and in a short while, he ran to the front of the woods.

When he entered the woods, Ethan stopped and looked down the hillside. The cannibal mountain people lying on the ground were whipped by the furious man with the long whip in his hand.

Ethan opened the cylinder of the Python revolver, knocked off the shell casing, took three bullets from his pocket and stuffed them into them.

He closed the magazine, scratched the neck of the strong man with long hair like weeds, put the pistol back in his waist, turned around and burrowed into the woods.

The afternoon sun was fierce, but the woods were shady.

In the shady woods, there were a few people running profusely in sweat.

Climb over the dirt slope, and struggle over the boulder.

After a long time, several people stopped in their tracks.

Ethan stood beside a rock and looked towards the way he came. The pursuers had long since disappeared.

Along the way, he took advantage of his physical strength to harass the pursuers twice, successfully slowed down their pace, and then quickly caught up with Dahlia and the others.

After walking through the mountains for two hours, everyone except him was exhausted and could only stop to rest.

Both Jesse and Carly leaned against the rock, panting with dull expressions.

Seeing the two of them, Dahlia pulled Ethan's trousers worriedly.

Ethan turned his head and jumped off the rock.

He didn't know how to comfort these two people. After a good trip, all three companions died unexpectedly. The two of them have not collapsed yet, and their mental quality is already very good.

He sighed, untied the backpack from his back, and took out the whiskey inside.

Ethan unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip of wine, handed the bottle to Carly and said:
"To Francine, Evan and Scott, may they find their own peace."

Carly took the bottle, closed her eyes and took a long gulp.

"To Francine, Evan and Scott."

The wine bottle turned around, and the faces of the two of them finally regained some vitality.

Ethan took out the food in the backpack and divided it among several people.

After eating and resting for a while, Ethan looked at his watch.

"It's getting late now, we have to leave quickly."

Carly murmured, "Where can we go?"

Surrounded by tall trees, the forest seems to be endless, and I don't know when it will end.

"We need to find out where we are." Ethan looked up.

Jessie stood up, she pulled Carly up hard, gritted her teeth and said:
"Go to the ridge line, the view from above is the best, maybe you can see the road or the town, as long as we have the direction, we can escape, we want to avenge Scott and the others."

Carly nodded, she said seriously:

"We must escape, and those bastards must be punished."

"Most definitely."

Dahlia stood up now too, and put her arms around them both.

"what are you waiting for?"

Seeing Ethan standing aside, Jesse beckoned to him.

"Come here and give us girls some power."

The corner of Ethan's mouth curled up, and he stretched out his arms to hold the three of them tightly together.

Several people encouraged each other with a few words and continued to move up the mountain.

Along the way, Ethan picked up a few dead branches, chopped them a few times, and made them into simple trekking poles.

With the help of tools, their speed has been accelerated a bit.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Ethan, who was walking in the front, stopped, and Dalia, who was walking behind him, didn't pay attention, and bumped into his back.

Carly walked behind her and quickly steadied Dahlia.

"what happened?"

Jesse quickly asked in a low voice.

Ethan raised the simple trekking pole in his hand high and pointed forward.

Behind the treetops ahead, a tall watchtower appeared.

The watchtower is framed with logs, with a wide wooden platform on top and a cabin above it.

Everyone was overjoyed immediately, and ran forward with high spirits.

Under the watchtower, which was framed by logs, Dahlia stopped. She looked disappointedly at the wooden ladder entwined with vines.

"I don't think there will be anyone up there, and it looks like no one has been here for a long time."

Ethan stepped forward, "It doesn't matter, maybe there is a radio on it, and there are supplies."

He grabbed the ladder and shook his hands vigorously a few times.

The ladder didn't move at all, and it looked extremely solid.

Jesse said expectantly: "This is the highest point nearby, maybe you can see the road."

Ethan reached out and grabbed the wooden ladder rail, and took the lead in climbing up.

This lookout building is six or seven stories high, about 20 meters high.

A mountain wind blew, and he seemed to feel the watchtower swaying with the mountain wind. He knew that the wooden ladder under his feet was stable enough, but his feet still felt weak for a while.

Ethan hugged the wooden ladder tightly with his hands and looked down.

Dahlia, Carly, and Jesse climbed up the wooden ladder in turn, following closely behind him.

The three of them are all wearing tight vests, and from their own perspective, the scenery is unique.

"Hurry up, I'll show you when I take it off later."

Dahlia was a little afraid of heights, so she hurriedly urged.

Carly chuckled and puffed out her chest.

Ethan smiled shyly, and continued to climb up.

The tops of the nearby trees were already parallel to him, and Ethan went up a few meters to the bottom of the wooden platform.

A small aisle was paved with wooden boards in this place, and a small wooden door was installed on it from the aisle to the middle of the bottom of the wooden platform.

Ethan observed carefully, there was a trace of smoke on it, and the sliding wooden door could be opened from top to bottom.

Ethan pushed open the wooden door and turned over.

Above the wooden platform was a small wooden house, the glass of the window was punched through a hole, and the mountain wind came in, blowing the paper on the table beside it.

There was a radio station on the table, and an ax was chiseled into the radio station.

He walked over and picked up the ax vigorously, and the internal parts of the radio had been split in two by the ax.

Footsteps sounded next to him, and Jesse walked up to him.

She glanced at the radio and said helplessly, "I bet you a hundred dollars, this thing must be broken."

Ethan shrugged, handed her the axe, and then walked to the side. Carly and Dalia were standing by the window, looking into the distance.

Dahlia turned her head and leaned on his shoulder.

Carly also hugged Ethan's arm silently at this time, and whispered:
"We're all going to die."

Looking out from the window, wherever the line of sight goes, there are mountains and forests, and there is no sign of human activity.
