This was a winding mountain road, and the road surface collapsed at the final stage of the crossing. What blocked their way was a gap with cliffs on both sides.
"It will definitely be too late to go back the other way."
Zafira shook her head. "If you want to go, you have to take some risks."
"Adventure?" Everyone was looking at him.
"there."
Zafira pointed to a location close to the mountain.
"The collapse could be caused by loose soil, or the snow on top falling down and crushing the road... But there is still a small gap on the innermost side that can be walked on, almost enough to step half a foot in."
Hitzfeld thought he was crazy.
You can only put half a foot on the edge, so you have to lean your whole body against the wall and slowly move your feet sideways to get over.
But who can guarantee that collapse will not happen again?
If it happens again, everyone might be trapped in the middle of the mountain wall, unable to get through or come back!
She expected someone to object, or at least suggest a different approach or something.
but no.
Everyone accepted this method, even Zafira set an example by stepping on the mountain wall and moving towards that side.
At night, visibility is already low.
Coupled with the fog, he needed to hold the flashlight in his mouth to illuminate the road conditions and move carefully towards that direction.
ten minutes……
twenty minutes……
The light of a flashlight appeared in the night fog.
He flashed twice, indicating that he had successfully reached the cliff on the opposite side.
There is nothing more to say.
Everyone started to line up and move forward one by one along the mountain wall.
Hitzfeld's turn.
She kept telling herself not to be nervous. One of her hands was held by Xia Yibing, and the woman walked in front. The other hand was tied with a rope, one end of which was in Mu Ke's hand behind her.
Because of their different physiological structures, she and Xia Yibing could only walk with their backs to the mountain wall.
Try your best to remind yourself not to look below.
When we got to the middle section, everything was fine.
It doesn't seem as scary as I imagined...
Hitzfeld breathed a sigh of relief.
"boom!"
The next second, the mountain shook violently.
Before anyone could react, a huge shadow quickly rose from the bottom of the cliff and slammed the rock wall with an extremely ferocious palm.
"Crash!"
"Wow——"
Large chunks of rubble and snow fell down, and many people were unable to hold on and were knocked into the fog.
"drink……"
Hitzfeld opened his eyes wide and finally saw the appearance of the giant monster clearly.
It is as high as a hundred meters...with its roots intertwined and tangled, like a huge trunk formed by old tree roots entwined together.
This is a giant.
Golem giant.
It is completely different from an ordinary aggregate golem. It has no feet on its torso, and instead has a total of seven irregular arms of varying lengths and thicknesses.
Every arm and every part of the torso is actually made up of a single golem, which results in each part having a golem face.
When it moves, when it swings its arms to attack, these human faces will have pious expressions, constantly chanting the name of the evil god and singing poems and songs praising it.
"Piris..."
"Piris..."
"Flayemendi..."
"Flayemendi..."
"boom!"
Another punch.
A detective was unable to dodge and was knocked into the mountain by the blow.
"Hurry!" Xia Yibing's pulling movements suddenly intensified.
"Faster!"
Debris flew everywhere.
Hitzfeld couldn't see the road beneath his feet at all.
She heard gunshots, screams, and the roar of a monster's grinning mouth.
But the clearest sound was her own heartbeat.
That was the sound of uncontrollable fear!
“Ugh! … Ugh!”
Another tremor shattered a piece of the plank road ahead.
"Jump!"
The woman roared.
His arm was pulled, and Hitzfeld jumped up.
Because she was facing outwards, in mid-air, she saw a huge face made up of countless human faces emerging from the mist.
"Flayemendi..."
“Flayemendi…!”
The giant monster locked onto its target in the air, opened its mouth, and its shadow slowly passed over the girl's head.
A close call.
She felt a hand push her from behind.
"Ok!"
Xia Yibing gritted her teeth and swung her arms. The girl seemed to be flying in the clouds, flipping half a circle in the air, and fell on the other side of the cliff in a very embarrassed manner.
Looking up suddenly, she saw two people, including Mu Ke, falling into the huge mouth.
"Crack!"
The teeth closed together, and the black-haired woman's right arm was also severed.
Chapter 69: Fragile People
"Muko...!"
Witnessing this scene, the people on the cliff's eyes instantly turned red.
"Hmm..." Xia Yibing endured the pain of broken arm, pulled out a shiny silver hook from her waist with her left hand, spun it a few weeks, and then threw it towards the cliff. It fell to the ground with a "ding" sound.
Then her body began to fall.
Keep falling.
"Click!" The silver hook slid more than one meter on the ground, and then got stuck in the rock to hold the weight.
The shadow of the troll rose again from the mist.
Accompanied by screams and exclamations, Xia Yibing wrapped the rope around her gloves several times, pulled it tight, and slid through the giant mouth like a swing.
"Click!"
"boom!"
The sound of the huge mouth closing and the sound of her hitting the cliff were heard simultaneously.
At the same time, the silver hook as a whole began to twist and deform gradually.
"This hook won't hold... Go pull her up!"
Zafira's roar almost broke.
"quick!"
"I have to remind you to pay attention to the above..."
In the back, Ethan in the wheelchair kept looking up at the upper cliff. He shook his head and muttered to himself, and his movements became more and more violent and his emotions became more and more excited.
"Above... above! The snow is going to collapse!!!"
The people standing below looked up in panic, but before they could react, a huge torrent of snow rolled down, and more than half of the people standing on the edge of the cliff pulling the ropes were washed down.
"..."
Hitzfeld slowly got up, his face dull, letting the violent snow and wind blow his hair into disarray, covering his left eye and half of his face.
The situation has undoubtedly reached its most critical moment.
she said to herself.
What should I do...
I have to do something…
Lift your foot and take a step forward.
"Come back! Hitzfeld!"
Ethan's roar came from behind.
"You're not needed there...! Have you forgotten who they died for??"
“…Don’t let everyone’s sacrifice go to waste!!!”
The steps paused.
Then accelerate again.
Exerting all his strength, Hitzfeld ran to the edge of the cliff at his fastest speed. As he ran, he reached into his chest and took out the ink bottle that carried all his hope.
"damn it……"
Xia Yibing stood on the cliff with both feet, holding the rope tightly with her left hand, and was constantly enduring the baptism of snow.
"It happened to be the right hand...damn beast!"
Maybe twenty seconds passed, maybe ten minutes passed, and the unbearable avalanche finally stopped.
She was just about to catch her breath and wanted to follow the pull and start to climb up.
Suddenly, chanting was heard again in the night fog.
The woman closed one eye and tilted her head, her pupils contracted violently.
The seven-armed golem was not swept away by the avalanche just now.
It was hovering there, clinging to the sides and cliffs of the mountain, with its two hands grasping its left and right sides!
"Ruined……"
Zafira and the rest of the people stared blankly at a huge human face rising from below.
They had to hold on to the rope, otherwise Xia Yibing would definitely fall.
