Whether it is the discovery of unknown ideals and beliefs, or the greed and desire to make a lot of money, that drives adventurers to succeed is really a question worthy of study and consideration, but for the current Duan Qing, they have no time to think about questions like this, because since they discovered the second stone pier, what has unfolded in front of them is more and more stone pillars that extend up the hillside, and the bright future that may be discovered along them.

Just as what drives players to survive in this world is a lot of equipment and a lot of money.

The black part of the mountain was not long, because not far ahead was the main body of the Falling Star Mountain, which was straight into the clouds, so they didn't have much to walk, but this journey also took them a long time, in addition to the steeper and steeper road, and the fact that they found more unnatural objects that resembled stone pillars soon after discovering the second stone pillar.

They even found the bones of many animals next to a certain fallen stone pillar.

"What does this mean? Could it be that some monster went crazy and broke this stone pillar? ”

"No, look at the bones...... It's clear that there is a pattern. Somebody must have killed these animals and put them here. ”

"What? Could this be the legendary ......?"

"Sacrifice."

Duan Qing clapped his hands and stood up: "Yate, do your clansmen have such a habit?" ”

"No, but ...... The people of the tribe believe in the feelings of the Heavens, so if they encounter something that makes the Heavens angry, they will sometimes use some ways to please the Heavens, hoping that the Heavens will appease their anger......"

"It seems...... That's it. Duan Qing pointed to the collapsed stone pillar and said, "They thought that the collapse of the stone pillar was because the heavens were angry, so they used this way...... Prayer. ”

"Your people are very superstitious." In the latter's somewhat confused head-scratching movements, Nan Tieshan tilted his head and looked at the young man of the Nosr tribe: "And it is very climbable." ”

"Regardless, these things prove one thing, and that's ...... Indeed, as Art claims, this is the place where their ancestors once discovered. Duan Qing looked at the top of the black rock group, where there seemed to be more stone pillars hidden in it: "Since there are so many 'Divine Shadows' here, then ......"

"It's a long way from when we find out...... It shouldn't be far off. ”

The rest followed his gaze as they looked at the stretch of the rugged ridge, and the spark of adventurer's greed reignited in their eyes. Only that young man who was different from the others had a different look in his eyes.

"Finally...... Is this true? ”

"See with your own eyes." Duan Qing dropped this sentence, and then took the lead to walk up the mountain.

The steeper and steeper mountain road has completely departed from the scope of normal walkable roads, but relying on the physique beyond normal humans, several people still insist on continuing to climb, rushing towards higher altitudes. Severe snowstorms and low temperatures, as well as dangerous situations, have replaced them as their biggest obstacles at this time, but there are still many useful discoveries in this short journey.

They found more stone pillars...... of the wreckage.

"Here...... Has there ever been a collapse? ”

"I don't know!"

The interference of the wind and snow, the frozen hands and feet, and the snowflakes that kept pouring into the mouth when they spoke, made everyone who shouted loudly frown, and what was worse was that they could not find a place to rest, and at the same time had the opportunity to share each other's thoughts, so that they were scattered on several huge rocks, and they could only communicate with each other by shouting loudly. Luckily, there was no snow in the place, and there were no monsters, so they didn't need to be wary of the disaster that such a shout could bring, but even so, they tried to communicate with each other, because the unnatural wreckage in the middle of the stone crevices was really worthy of their attention.

"This must have collapsed, right?" Duan Qing shouted loudly: "These stones are not natural......"

"We can't understand anything anyway." The answer to him was the naturally loud voice of the black-armored man: "In our eyes, these things are no different from ordinary stones. ”

"You can't go in the wrong direction." Snow Spirit Phantom Ice shouted on the other side, "This is the instinct of an adventurer...... Art, can you keep up? ”

A faint shout of a young man could be heard from below.

"Looks like that kid isn't quite good." Nan Tieshan picked up a boulder and looked down: "I'll go and carry him up." ”

"Do you have enough stamina?"

"I'm a power player...... At least much better than you, a female gamer. ”

"......" Xue Lingphantom Ice didn't reply, but just signaled that the other party could jump.

"Whew...... Boom! ”

"That's amazing." Duan Qing also looked down, then shook his head and said in surprise: "It's rare to see such a tough player recently." ”

"That's because you don't see much." There was a hint of a woman's unique fragrance in the wind and snow, which was the breath of the figure of the woman in the black cloak jumping over the rock mass next to him: "Now those powerhouses of more than forty levels are basically superhuman. ”

"Aren't we the same now?" Duan Qing shook his head while looking for the next climbing point.

"Remember what I said to you?" A woman's voice came from above: "Every time the attribute value passes, it reaches a new realm, not to mention that they also have a lot of legendary equipment bonuses...... What are your current attributes? ”

"Twenty points of strength have passed." Duan Qing replied casually, "So I'm strong now." ”

"It's really inexplicably confident, but ......" The woman's voice was still cold and indifferent: "Your performance is stronger than expected." ”

Although he didn't see the other party's expression, Duan Qing could also imagine the entanglement in the woman's heart at this time, he used his hand to pull himself to the rock: "Don't be arrogant, you are also very strong." ”

On the rock, the eyes under the hood were looking at him, he didn't care, and looked up and down the body of the woman who was blown up by the wind and snow: "I suddenly found ......"

"You don't seem to have changed your gear."

"In the past time, I have been busy upgrading...... Something to do with preparing for the game. The woman didn't hide it, but said generously: "So there is no time to get the equipment." ”

"Of course, I don't need it anymore."

"Hey, you can't just lose your enthusiasm as a player." Duan Qing shook his head, and then walked to Xue Ling Phantom Bing's side: "I know that you are a new professional player, and you have not had any outstanding results in the past two years......

"You investigate me?"

"Check out a lot of this thing on the alliance's official website, okay?" The man shook his head: "Women are sensitive ......"

"I don't need your understanding or sympathy." The woman turned back and walked to the next rock: "I said it at the beginning, and ...... Now there is no need to repeat either. ”

"I didn't mean that, I'm encouraging you, okay?" Duan Qing spread her hands, but the woman who had turned back couldn't see it: "The affairs in your guild are your family's affairs, I don't want to get involved with these, I just ...... I don't want to see you just give up. ”

"And because of those ...... Troublemakers. ”

The woman stopped.

Although the top of the mountains was beside them, and they needed to continue to climb for an unknown amount of time, the two people in the wind and snow stood quietly on the rocks with thousands of high cliffs on both sides, looking at each other without saying a word, looking like they were about to fight on the top of the mountains. It wasn't until a loud shout came from below them, and a flying shadow fell over their heads, and then fell beside them, that the two of them woke up from this strange confrontation and looked in unison at the black-armored man who had climbed up from the edge of the rock.

"Whew, whew...... You really should go and practice your body, and I'm going to throw you up...... Hey? What are you two doing here? ”

“...... It's nothing, it's just that the road above is not easy to walk, so I want to discuss it. ”

"Isn't it good to go?" Nan Tieshan's fist set up a pergola on his forehead, looking at the higher place: "Hmm...... It's really hard to see the damn weather. ”

"From what we have, there has been a collapse here." Picking up Yat, who was thrown up, Duan Qing explained unhurriedly: "So we are suspicious...... There used to be an orthodox path in this place. ”

The woman looked at him curiously, wanting to see what else he could choreograph.

"The rocks may have weathered in the strong winds for a long time, but the contents of the crevices are still there, proving to us what happened here." Pacing slowly, Duan Qing walked to the right side of the rock, and then looked up at his front: "According to my guess...... It was supposed to be a piled up road, but it was destroyed due to its age, so these fragments were left behind. If I'm not mistaken, the direction indicated by the remnants of the ruins...... I guess this way. ”

He stretched out his finger and pointed to the air of a straight cliff not far away.

"What are you talking about, why didn't I understand." Nan Tieshan looked over there for a long time, and then asked with some confusion, "Isn't that the cliff of Falling Star Mountain?" ”

"I don't know what's on this mountain, but it must have something." Duan Qing retracted his gaze and said to the other three people: "Anyway, let's go up first, and when the time comes...... You should be able to see it. ”

It wasn't long before they saw it.

The towering Mountain of the Fallen Star was now in front of them, but from where they were, they could not find anything superfluous except for the cliffs that went straight up and the clouds that hid the peaks at the top. But that didn't mean they hadn't found any clues, as the rubble at their feet, and the unnatural part of the rock that visibly jutted out from beneath their feet, were telling them what this place used to be.

"These wrecks ......" the bold Nantieshan squatted on the edge of the cliff at the highest point, examining the protruding stone: "It must have been left over from the past." ”

"And there's more to come." Duan Qing stood a little further back and gestured to the others for a moment in front of him—there was a straight and smooth cliff face, which made people feel a little dizzy when viewed from here. It's like standing next to the windows of a tenth-story building that's more than a dozen stories high, looking at the outer walls of this tall building.

They did, however, see that there were still traces of what had been embedded in the walls.

"Was there anything here, stone staircase?"

"Maybe, but I certainly don't know." Duan Qing expressed his helplessness with movements, but the next moment he began to rub his hands: "If you want to know......

"Let's crawl over and find out."

"Damn, isn't it?" Nan Tieshan was shocked: "How can this climb past?" We won't fly again......"

"See those little grooves that remained?" Duan Qing pointed to some inconspicuous holes in the "wall": "This should be left over from the previous staircase construction, let's ...... along here."

"No, no, no, it's crazy." Nan Tieshan waved his hands continuously: "Besides, how can you be sure of what we will see in the past, in case nothing is ......"

"yes." Xue Lingphantasm Ice on the side also mentioned: "And what about Yat, I'm afraid he won't be able to climb over......"

Duan Qing looked at the young man who was hiding behind the three of them, who was already sitting on the ground because of his weak legs, completely unable to move.

"I said, you're ......"

Duan Qing walked to Yate's side, and then ...... Slowly squatted down.

"I really don't want to put you in the category of being a burden."

Art's face lowered.

"But we've taken you all the way, and we've brought you to this place, and you can't ...... I didn't do anything at all, so I just admit it. ”

He patted Art on the shoulder, like a teacher who taught earnestly.

"The adventurer's discovery of the treasure is bound to be fraught with danger, I thought you were aware of it when you made your decision before, but now it seems ...... It seems that your enlightenment is not enough. ”

He looked into the other's eyes: "You still lack some...... The courage to place bets. ”

Art's body shuddered.

"It got to the point where we needed to place a bet." Duan Qing was talking to himself, but listening to his subdued tone, it was as if he was saying it to everyone: "Do you just turn around like this, or do you ...... Go in the direction that is possible. ”

He stood up, walked towards the cliff on his right, and then, in full view of everyone, jumped into the air beyond the cliff.

"I'll bet first!"

The body of the man in the wind and snow swayed in the air above the abyss-one of Duan Qing's hands grabbed the small hole in the wall, and then moved slowly towards the outer end of the cliff.
