Chapter 13 de 37 · 9 min para leer el chapter
In Chapter 13, Phileas Fogg and his companions attempt to rescue Aouda, but guards prevent them from entering the temple before her sacrifice. Passepartout saves her by pretending to be her dead husband rising from the burning pyre, and the party escapes on the elephant despite gunfire from pursuing soldiers.
