Chapter 110: Towards the Volcano
As the shadows of the island drew closer and the sound of the waves rattling, the steamer sounded three shrill whistles and began to jolt, slowly approaching the Bright Pier.
After a "bang", the steamer shook violently, and Bai Lotian felt that the steamer was leaning against the dock.
In the flickering lights of the steamer, Thomson and his entourage walked to the right side of the deck, followed the suspension ladder, and walked down the dock.
It was a makeshift makeshift pier with a potholed concrete floor covered with sand and gravel, and walking on it was a little awkward, and Bai Lotian's left arm was dangling and aching.
In the distance was a dark mountain, flames and white smoke were constantly rising from the top of the mountain, and the air was filled with the smell of sulfur, and the fog was misty, and Bai Letian's mouth was a little dry and astringent.
"There's Bright Volcano in front of you. Thomson pointed to the place where the flames were rising in the distance and said to Bai Lotian, "Bright will be written into history." Today is a great day. ”
Bai Lotian nodded and looked at his fingers. The Bright Volcano is not very high, and from a distance, it looks like a blazing torch stuck in the depths of the sea.
Grace, who walked at the front, held an outdoor night light in his hand, and walked along the winding mountain road in the direction of the rising flames. The procession up the mountain, following behind the lights, winds like a long dragon, winding for hundreds of meters.
The slopes of the hill are densely packed with shrubs, but there are also towering tall trees with thick trunks, one after the other, and the crown of trees overhead is luxuriant. They walked through the road hidden in the mountains and forests, and the branches and leaves slapped on Bai Letian's face. The thick leaves and fallen branches on the ground crackled beneath him.
Bai Lotian bent down to dodge a low branch, almost fell, and as his body swayed, he reached out to Professor Wind Whisper and regained his balance.
There were cliffs on either side, and Professor Whisper of the Wind instinctively reached out and helped him so that he would not fall, but soon let go of his hand, sighed, and walked briskly forward--- without looking back.
Bai Lotian looked at Professor Feng's familiar back, he was excited for a while, but he felt helplessness and pain when Professor Feng misunderstood him, and a sour taste surged in his heart, thinking that he was now a different strange face, and his heart was relieved.
How can we rescue Professor Feng? How can we stop the implementation of their plan? Looking at the huge team in front of him, Bai Lotian fell into deep thought.
Relying on individual strength alone is more difficult than ascending to heaven, and even with the addition of Paul, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, and there is almost no possibility of success. Perhaps he could take Thomson hostage and command his men, which should be a good way to win more with less. The problem is that it may not be difficult to hold Thomson hostage, but after that, it will not be easy to avoid the well-organized "Future Alliance" and get out of here safely.
Bai Lotian touched the weapon in his pocket, stared at the mountain road ahead, and quickly turned his brain, trying to find a good way to get the best of both worlds, due to nervousness, his chest went up and down, and his breathing was quite rapid.
"Excited, right?" said Grace, turning her head to look at him, excitedly, "Turn around the canyon ahead and you'll see the crater." ”
"It must be a grand scene, right? Do we have time to escape?" asked Bai Lotian.
"Of course, there will be no mistakes in the results, which have been carefully calculated by our scientists. To ensure safety, we have prepared a 'quantum mask'. ”
"Quantum Mask?"
"Yes. It is made with the latest materials that are extremely complex and can withstand the intrusion of volcanic ash and protect the safety of everyone in the organization. Grace continued, "The quantum mask was invented by Mr. Clay, and we are the only ones in the world who can enjoy this treatment." The rest will just die in agony, lol. He let out a shrill laugh, a metallic sound on his face, his expression confident and arrogant.
"Give it a try anyway. Bai Lotian thought to himself, "The necessary risks still have to be taken." He glanced ahead, and saw that there was a narrow valley in front of him, which was difficult for others to approach, and it was suitable for him to control Thomson, and he had not yet figured out what to do after the control.
Walk through a wide valley, along a mountain path lined with dense low trees on both sides, turn a col, walk past a forest with boulders on one side, climb to the top of a small bare hill on all sides, and rush into the sky with white smoke and red flames.
Seeing that victory was in sight, the people forgot their tiredness and cheered excitedly, the sound echoing through the valley.
Bai Lotian took this opportunity to quietly walk forward, slowly approaching Thomson's side, and only when he reached the narrow valley in front of him, he could start his own adventure plan, hoping to succeed in one fell swoop and control Thomson.
Getting closer and closer to the valley that Bai Lotian wanted, he reached out again and felt for the pistol in his pocket, and looked at Thomson, who was only a shoulder away from him, his heart was about to jump out, and he began to get restless.
Walking into the valley covered by shrubs, except for a few night lights that glow like fireflies, it is dark everywhere. I saw that there was a mountain pass, and there were huge rocks on both sides, which was a good place to start.
So, Bai Letian reached into his pocket with his right hand, took two steps forward, and quickly approached Thomson, and his heart was also pinched.
