Xavier subconsciously wiped the cold sweat from his forehead; this was a fear etched into his genes.
"This is too high, too terrifying!"
And when the others saw that the exit was actually on a cliff face, they were equally terrified.
Fischl gasped, "Oh my god, not only are the waves below so big, but there are also reefs! We'll definitely be crippled if we fall!"
This also expressed the feelings of the others; jumping directly from here would be no different from seeking death.
"Hey, didn't you say you had a plan? How could there be such a huge flaw?"
Kaveh turned to Alhaitham and questioned him.
Alhaitham, with his arms crossed, calmly said, "I never said the plan was perfect, but at least you shouldn't doubt our judgment on the location being wrong."
Itto excitedly said, "So, we actually still have a way?"
"Of course," Zhongli said calmly, "because to escape this island, one thing is very crucial."
"A ship," Shikanoin Heizou added, "Without a ship, it's simply unrealistic to leave this place, and it must be someone else's ship."
Kaveh rolled his eyes. "Of course it's someone else's ship! Are we going to build one on the spot?"
Xingqiu stroked his chin in thought. "Hmm~ I understand. This ship not only has to be someone else's, but it also has to be from the prison side. Otherwise, even if we had a ship, we couldn't leave, and we'd easily be targeted."
"Hehe, so we're going to steal someone else's ship, right?" Venti's spirits immediately lifted.
Zhongli explained, "That's why Alhaitham said the time was almost right. What we need to do next is not go down, but go up."
After hearing Zhongli's words, Xavier looked up and saw that although the area above was also a cliff face,
climbing upwards didn't seem impossible.
Fortunately, everyone here was an expert, and climbing a mountain was indeed not a big problem.
"Our current position is close to the port, and because of the cliff's cover, even if someone is operating nearby, they won't detect our presence."
Alhaitham leaped out of the cave entrance and began climbing up the rugged Shitou.
"So, you mean someone has already come to support us?" Xavier suddenly realized.
"Exactly. So, we must seize the time difference before they enter the prison to suppress the riot, and then drive the ships away."
"This way, they will certainly be unable to catch us in a short time, and our plan will be a complete success."
Alhaitham gave an affirmative answer, which made Xavier give him a thumbs-up.
It could be said that every step of Zhongli and Alhaitham's plan surprised him and exceeded his expectations.
"Great! We really only have one last plan left! Let's go, hahahaha!"
Itto was overjoyed and immediately followed, climbing upwards.
The rest of the people also climbed up one by one. Although there were some dangerous moments with falling debris, no accidents occurred.
Upon reaching the top, they found it was a back slope.
