After that, Frank did not hesitate to return and continued to move everyone up the surface by the pairs.

Still, Tigris saw the look on Lara's face and went up to her to ask, "What's up, Ms. Gold? Is that your first time being carried like that?"

While Lara had to be wary around Frank, she did not have to around Tigris, even snorting, "Don't look down on me. I've had more boyfriends than the number of women you've met!"

Tigris was left chuckling in amusement, while Frank had moved everyone except Sylvie to the surface.

"I didn't know you were this good!" Sylvie exclaimed. "Why bother working as a bodyguard? You could well be the protagonist of a martial arts novel. How wonderful it'd be to live by the word!"

Frank ignored her as he walked up and picked her up before vaulting on the surface.

However, Sylvie remained latched around his shoulder, giggling, "My waist is quite slender, don't you agree? I don't mind telling you-I'm trained in martial arts, and I pack some muscles even if I don't hold a candle to you!" Frank still did not respond, however, releasing her and beckoning for everyone to head back to the camp.

When they did, Sylvie told him, "Well, we made it back in one piece, but that tomb isn't a safe place, so we shouldn't go down recklessly. I'll arrange for a construction team to build better load-bearing structures, but that would take some time, so everyone can take a break for now!"

Frank nodded and gestured for Tigris and the others to return to their tents.
