Chapter 243, Chain Bridge
When there is an exhaustion of manpower, the special abilities possessed by these humanoid bones give people a sense of endlessness.
Even if they can't do me lethal now, I can't stand this endless fight.
Once my physical strength is greatly consumed, when my speed and strength plummet, there is only a dead end waiting for me, and it is the kind that dies miserably.
It can't be consumed like this anymore!
With a wave of my hand, I cut the white bones under my feet into pieces, and then glanced at Tang Yuying and the others.
They are still moving forward, but because of the interference of the vines, the speed is not very fast.
At this level, it won't take ten minutes, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to get out of this death zone.
In other words, I think I have to fight them for more than 10 minutes.
After figuring this out, I didn't just defend and counterattack on the spot, but started to walk.
As I walked, I drew in the mass of humanoid skeletons and distanced myself from the crowd.
Try to keep this group of monsters away from them, only in this way, can you be insured enough.
Just because I'm able to fight at a high intensity for a long time doesn't mean everything will go the way I planned.
Because these humanoid bones possess intelligence, they do not blindly rely on instinct to attack, but have a certain strategy.
If they react and know that I'm a hard stubble to gnaw on, and turn on other people, it's definitely not good news for us.
In the face of the flanking attack of many humanoid bones, I can protect myself, and even fight back, but this is only for me.
If the white bone group were to deal with Tang Yuying and them, with my current ability, I wouldn't be able to take care of everyone at all.
After all, self-protection is one thing, and protecting others while protecting oneself is another.
Among them, the difficulty is completely increased in geometric multiples.
Therefore, I can only rely on this method to lure the white bones away a little bit and buy more time.
As I fought, I changed direction and went backwards.
The * in his hand, the constant swinging and slashing, the quick movements, the violent power, at this moment, completely became a slaughtering machine.
Bone after bone was crushed under my sword, and then bone after bone was pieced back together on the ground, and then joined the battle again.
During the battle, I was mentally focused, not only to worry about all directions, but also to be vigilant under my feet and even to the sky.
Because some bones are not only limited to frontal raids, they also attack from underground.
Several times, I was grabbed by the sudden protrusion of a bony palm from the ground.
If I hadn't been prepared, I would have slashed with a knife while being restricted, for fear that I would have to add a few more bloody wounds to my body.
And not only underground, some bones will climb into trees, and then jump down and attack from the air, which can be said to be unguardable.
No matter how cautious I am, there will eventually be areas of negligence.
And once there is a trace, even if only a trace is carried, it will leave a bloody lesson.
Gradually, new wounds began to develop in my body.
Although there is no danger to life, there are many wounds, which will eventually affect the body's function.
Not only did I have a problem with my body, but I also had the * in my hand, which was a little overwhelmed at the moment.
Because of the cutting of too many white bones, there have already been many gaps in the knife edge, and where there are no gaps, they have also been curled.
The shape of the whole knife has begun to bend, and a brand-new knife, after a while, has become tattered as if it had been used for ten years.
I don't know how many bones I crushed, but I can't remember how many I can't remember.
Only the broken steel knife in his hand tells the bloody experience.
The bones are still pouring endlessly, and my physical strength has begun to decline.
"It should be about the same, right?"
I glanced into the distance.
The traces of Tang Yuying and the others have long since disappeared, and I am far away from the road on the mountain before.
I only hope that Song Qian can lead Tang Yuying and them through this death zone safely.
"I'm not playing with you anymore!"
Looking at the dense humanoid white bones around me, I couldn't help but smile coldly, and my body suddenly accelerated back.
I started to run away from the opposite place of Tang Yuying and the others, and my physical strength had already begun to decline, so I had to get out of the fight as soon as possible in order to be safe.
Otherwise, once the physical strength drops to a certain level and affects the speed, it is very likely that you will be trapped by them.
When the time comes, the end will naturally be self-evident.
The only purpose of accompanying them for so long just now was not to want them to go to Tang Yuying and the others for trouble.
Now that I've bought enough time, there's no need to spend time with them.
They can afford it, but I can't.
After making up my mind, I suddenly exerted force under my feet, and my speed increased instantly.
The large number of humanoid white bones behind him began to catch up non-stop, and in terms of number, it was much more than before, reaching hundreds of corpses.
Although there are many more of them, they are not as fast as they can be raised.
In just a few breaths, I had already pulled a long distance from the group of bones behind me.
But they are still tirelessly chasing, and as long as they can see it, they probably won't let me go as a prey.
I'm running, they're chasing, this scene inexplicably reminds me of a joke.
"You chase me, if you chase me, I'll let you hehehe......"
A joke is a joke after all, and it naturally does not match the current scene.
After all, being chased by these things is not as simple as hehehehe.
In order to avoid falling into the hands of these bones, my speed was increased to the extreme.
Soon, a large group of humanoid bones were left behind.
After shaking off all the bones, I didn't go back the way I came, but found a path full of thorns and continued my climb.
Not surprisingly, after walking out of the death zone, Tang Yuying and the others should not be long before they reach the position at the top of the mountain.
And at the top of this mountain, almost all of them are covered by a huge ancient temple.
This ancient temple is so large that you can see part of the outline halfway up the mountain, so you can imagine how magnificent the real ancient temple should be.
When I think of the ancient temple, the statue of the goddess without a head pops up in my mind.
Although there are many believers, it gives me a very evil feeling.
I only hope now that I can meet Tang Yuying before entering the ancient temple.
Otherwise, I really don't feel at ease that they would venture into the ancient temple.
……
If we used to walk on a gentle mountain road, now I am facing a mountain cliff instead of a road.
Ever since I shook off the bones and got out of that death zone, I found myself fleeing into a dead end.
The road is not easy to walk, even if it is forgotten, at least it can be called a road, and I never thought that after a while of going up, I would come to a desperate situation, and there was no road ahead!
Some are just a misty cliff.
Standing on the edge of the cliff, looking down, the abyss was pitch black, the cold wind was whistling, and it was whistling.
No matter how you look at it, it's a dead end.
If I went back the same way, I was afraid that I would run into the bones again, and it would be endless, so I had to follow the cliff and keep walking to the right, hoping to find another way up the mountain.
The actual situation was similar to what Song Qian had expected.
If you want to go up the mountain, you have to go through the buried bones, and if you want to get around, the road is either impassable or more dangerous.
And what I'm facing now is that there is no way out.
This road is not passable, so I can only choose another way, along the cliff to the sides of the search, it is really not possible, the big deal is that I circle around the whole mountain, and then return to the burial place, and then go up.
Of course, I don't believe my luck could be that bad.
After all, if a big mountain is erected, if there are cliffs everywhere and there is only one way up the mountain, it doesn't make sense at all.
No matter how miraculous it is, a single fulcrum can't hold up the entire mountain.
After walking around the cliff to the right for about a moment, I suddenly noticed a bridge not far in front of me.
This is a chain bridge, with a few chains at the bottom, at least the thickness of an arm.
However, the bridge looks old, and the wooden planks on it are already in tatters, and in many places they are even broken, and ordinary people cannot move forward at all.
When I came to the bridge and looked ahead, I couldn't help but frown secretly.
The chain bridge is so long that you can't see the end at all, you can barely see a small part of the front, and the rest is hidden in the mountain fog.
And these mountain fogs are more like the miasma in the mountains in Song Qian's mouth.
It's just that the miasma in the mountains is nothing to me now, the key is whether the bridge will be anything strange.
The chains on the bridge were rusty, and it looked like no one had passed by for a long time.
It's true, it's strange that someone appears in such a ghost place.
Standing at the head of the bridge, I began to study the entire chain bridge carefully, hesitating whether to step on it or not.
If I don't get on the bridge, then I'll have to find another way up the hill, but I don't know how long it will take to waste, and I'm not sure that the other roads will be safe.
But if I got on the bridge, if nothing else, I was skeptical that it would be able to hold my weight.
Don't be halfway through the bridge, and the bridge suddenly breaks through it, and I won't even have time to cry by then.
After much hesitation, I finally decided to give it a try.
I first walked to the chains at the head of the bridge and tugged at the two thick chains at the bottom with my hands.
As I pushed harder, the two thick chains began to shake slightly.
The chains flickered, and the whole bridge began to shake.
The edge of the bridge is fine, but the further you go to the middle, the more it shakes violently.
Fortunately, it didn't shake, but under this moment, the rotten wooden planks laid on the chain bridge began to fall down the cliff in large areas.
Even with the rust on the iron chain, I was shocked and dumbfounded.
Originally, there were two-thirds of the planks left on the bridge, and with a slight shake, I shook it off until only half was left.
Looking at the falling planks, I couldn't help but swallow my saliva, and silently told myself in my heart that it was normal for the planks to fall over time, as long as the chains continued.
To be on the safe side, I grabbed the chain and shook it twice.
With two slight blows, the entire bridge began to shake.
Now, the planks didn't fall much, after all, the broken ones were gone, and the rest were relatively well preserved.
Although the plank did not fall, when it was a chain in the center, it suddenly "clicked" and broke from it.
The hanging chains, still on the edge of the cliff, made a crisp sound, and finally shattered into sections one by one.
Seeing this, I swallowed again.
With the first shake, half of the tattered plank fell, and with the second shake, the middle chain broke again.
What will happen if I shake this third time?
I held out my hand, but I resisted the urge to give it a try.
If I shake it any longer, I suspect that the entire bridge will collapse as a result.
Damn, fight!
As soon as I gritted my teeth, I didn't hesitate at all, and walked directly onto the chain bridge.
In addition to a layer of chains at the bottom, there are two thick iron chains on both sides of the bridge as handrails.
Between these two thick chains and the bottom chains, there are many small chains intertwined into a net.
However, the tiny chains were all rusty, and most of them were on the verge of breaking.
In order to avoid any butterfly effect, I didn't dare to touch the handrails and chains on both sides, for fear that the whole bridge would sway.
Standing on the bridge, I took every step with extra care, extra lightness, and tried not to make any movement.
Because of the stimulation of my body's potential, my control over my body is already perfect, otherwise, I really wouldn't dare to walk on this chain bridge that will break at any time.
Walking on it is like dancing on the tip of a knife.
With each step, I had to keep my body perfectly balanced, not smashing the planks or shaking the chain bridge.
It was a huge test for me.
"Crunch...... Crunch ......"
Stepping on the planks of the chain bridge and listening to the sound under my feet, I couldn't help but feel a little frightened.
Fortunately, all the fragile planks were shaken off by mistake before, and now the planks that can be left on the chain bridge are all well preserved and relatively strong.
Stepping on it, although it crunks, it does not break suddenly.
In this way, I walked carefully on the bridge for a few minutes, and the whole distance was only about 20 meters, and it was estimated that it was less than one-tenth of the length of the entire bridge.
The more I walked towards the center of the bridge, the more careful I became, after all, I was in distress at the edge of the bridge, and I still had the ability to save myself.
I walked forward step by step, and the whole process, I didn't even dare to breathe.
The closer I got to the center of the bridge, the more intense the miasma in the mountains became, even blocking my view.
When I looked back, I could no longer see the position of the bridge, and the miasma had hidden it behind me, turning into a white expanse.
The back is white, and the front is white.
The feeling that wood has a goal and no end in sight gives people an inexplicable panic.
Just as I gathered my mind and continued to move towards the center of the bridge, the chain bridge, which had been stable just a moment ago, suddenly began to shake......
