Chapter 996: Fierce Battle for Ziyan (30)

Hal opened the inventory as he stretched out his hand to his friend: "Husky, can you lend your spare dagger to Hal Meow?" "These two Wangs?" The canine boy took out two daggers from his waist. These were the weapons they had scavenged from the dungeon's storage room, but they had been rusted and crudely made to be a spare piece of goods that had worn out other weapons and were used as a last resort.

What the hell did Hal want to do when he asked Husky for this garbage-like weapon?, the canine boy wondered.

After taking the two rusty heads, Hal also took out two blood-red ropes from his inventory. He sat on the ground and, by the light of the fire, tied the dagger to his little feet with those ropes.

"I see. Calvin looked at the leopard boy's feet. Hal attaches the blade of the dagger to the footboard, revealing the tip of the dagger from the front of the foot, and using the tip of the claw, he can hold the foot in the slippery stone crevice.

The human body just has a lot of inconveniences, the claws are not sharp enough, the muscles are not developed enough, and the body does not have the fur to remove the sword and slash. But humans have an advantage, they are good at using tools. With the help of external conditions, humans can also climb difficult cliffs with the same ease as orcs.

Human beings use tools better than any other race, and use them better than any other race.

Their Uncle Arthur once said: Humanity is both the weakest and the strongest. Maybe that's one of the reasons?

"Hal is about to start meowing. When everything was ready, the Leopard Man Boy tried to challenge the slippery ventilation duct once more.

"Be careful. If it really doesn't work, just change to Husky. The canine boy instructed.

Hal nodded, stretched out his hands, and stabbed the two daggers into the stone wall.

Click! He climbed up the hill. The tips of the daggers on the soles of the two feet also pierced into the gaps in the stone wall, and there was no more slipping.

It works.

As long as you move patiently and carefully, and climb up little by little, you can always climb up.

Hal raised the dagger in his right hand and thrust it higher.

With the support of his right hand, he moved his left foot upwards and stabbed the dagger bound to his foot into the crevice in the stone higher.

With each move up, he moved only one hand or one leg.

Left hand, right foot, right hand, left foot. In this way, the cycle continues, and the body slowly moves upwards.

That's the foundation of rock climbing. When a climber moves up, there must be at least three fulcrums attached to the wall, which is enough to be stable for climbing.

If only two fulcrums are responsible for the weight of the body, if one of them slips, the climber will lose his balance and risk falling off the cliff.

Hal had never been properly instructed and relied solely on his instincts as a cat to climb, so he often failed to climb any of the swamp trees with his bare hands.

But this time, it seems that something is secretly guiding the leopard man, and Hal learns as he crawls, and gradually grasps the knack.

Why, it's so simple. As long as you have enough physique, patience and concentration, it is not so difficult to climb even the steepest cliffs. It's less than five yards away, and it's about to reach the top!

Just as the Leopard Man Boy thought this—"Howl, watch out for Wang!" suddenly shouted Husky, who was watching a qiē below.

"What's that?!" the leopard boy suddenly found that the cliff on his left foot was loose. That's right, it's in disrepair, and it's on the verge of cracking with dampness and mold. The tip of the halba dagger stabbed hard into the crack in the stone, speeding up the process of disintegrating the stone even more!

A big hole opened in the stone wall, and the whole stone fell down, and Howl's left foot sank down!

"Woo!" the leopard boy struggled to hold himself! He was climbing up, the dagger in his right hand had just been pulled out of the crack in the stone, and was about to pierce into the wall higher up. But his left foot is now empty, and he can't borrow from it, only the support points of his right foot and left hand! Hal is even more shocked by the collapse of the rock wall on his left foot, and begins to lose his balance!

"No!--" Husky exclaimed, ready to take a position below, he really intended to catch the fallen leopard-man boy!

Hal was shocked, but the next thing he thought about was how to keep himself from falling!

No! Twenty-five yards from here! That's a fatal or at least seriously injured height for a leopard boy! Worse, if Hal landed on Husky, it would have crushed the canine boy - and even if it wasn't fatal, Husky might faint from the impact!

And Husky, who is unconscious, will also be attacked by that nightmare!

You can't fall! No matter what means you use, you have to stop yourself from falling! Thinking of this, Hal couldn't help but take a deep breath, and launched a [powerful dash] at the moment when his body was completely unbalanced, and his feet were full of strength, and he kicked up!

Touch! His powerful trampling shattered the stone wall where both feet touched at the same time. But he also took advantage of this powerful reaction force to jump up a certain distance!

And that's not all! He pushed himself in the opposite direction of the wall, and this upward leap only allowed him to get farther and farther away from the wall of the ventilation duct! If he couldn't land on the wall again, Hal would fall down after all!

Or maybe not! Hal then remembered that he was in the ventilation duct, and behind him was the other side of the inner wall of the ventilation duct, and there was a wall as well!

In that case, it would be easy to do it with a qiē! He twisted his body, trying to make himself a backflip. This qiē can only be done in a very short time, otherwise Hal will immediately crash into the wall behind him before he has time to turn over!--Fortunately, he is petite, and the ventilation duct is wide enough, Hal still flips over in time! His whole body rotates about three hundred degrees, and his feet touch the wall behind him at the same time! Hal did not hesitate, and immediately kicked hard!

The leopard man flew up and jumped a yard again, and he stabbed out his two daggers at the same time, just in time for himself to hang on the edge of the upper layer of the ventilation duct!

"Woo woo woo woo!" The leopard man boy exerted all his strength, kicked and stepped on his feet, and his hands kept pulling himself up, and finally climbed up!

"Hah!" the leopard man boy climbed up with a bang, and then gasped for breath on the ground with exhaustion.

Husky had just watched his friend's circus-like triangle jump, and he was already dumbfounded. Seeing that Hal had finally climbed up, he hurriedly cleaned up his mood and asked, "Howl, are you okay on it?" "Yes, meow!" The leopard man boy poked his head out of the cliff and looked down: "Wait a minute, Hal will put the rope down and meow!" When Husky and Calvin climbed up the upper level of the ventilation duct along the rope, the canine boy realized how steep and slippery the wall of the ventilation duct was - it was a shame that Harl could juggle on a wall like this!

"Anyway, we're coming up. Husky rubbed his soiled hands on his clothes a few times, not realizing that his clothes were actually just as dirty: "This should already be the second floor, let's move on?" "Before that," Calvin deliberately lowered his voice and said, "There will be chapters patrolling this floor, and if you talk loudly, we may be discovered." From here on, we have to be careful not to make a sound, especially in the dead of night. "When, of course Wang. Husky said helplessly, learning to keep his voice down.

"Also, put out the torch in your hand. The fish-man prince glared at the leopard-man boy again: "Do you want others to find us through the vent?" "But, if there is no lighting at all-" Before little Hal could finish protesting, the fish-man prince hurriedly interrupted: "It's okay, this ventilation pipe is a straight way up, and it is impossible to get lost." If you want light, there are vents every ten yards, and the light coming in from the outside is enough to illuminate. Hal then snuffed out the torch, but asked suspiciously, "The road can barely be seen, but we can't see each other, and we may be separated." Calvin sneered, blatantly reached out and grabbed Husky's tail: "Let's go one by one, just grab each other's tails." "But you don't have a tail to meow ......." "So, little black cat." Calvin smiled treacherously: "You go first, then the puppy, and then Calvin behind." Thinking that you are a little black cat that brings misfortune, this prince will never scratch your cat's tail, so ...... So it was decided. "You must be joking with Husky. The canine boy muttered dissatisfied.

"You can also tie us together with ropes," Calvin added mischievously, "but that's not convenient for emergencies." "Whew... Husky knew Calvin had a point, but he was still psychologically repulsed: "Okay Wang! Just, please don't take the opportunity to pull Husky's tail Wang!" "Hey, hey, hey...... No, Prince Ben will love your tail well, puppy. A chill spread across the canine boy's back, reaching the tip of his tail. In retaliation, Husky also grabbed Howl's kitten tail with one hand - fluffy, hot, and fluffy. Is this the cat's tail? Husky suddenly felt that it wouldn't hurt to take this opportunity to catch Howl's little tail?

"Meow!" While his cat's tail was being grabbed by Husky, Hal also felt a strange cold on his buttocks: "Anyway, let's keep going, meow." "Perhaps it's because the orcs retain a bit of their beastly nature, and when their tails are caught, Hal always feels uncomfortable, as if his fate is also in the hands of others.

But the truth is quite the opposite: this time, Hal leads the way. Every decision he made determined determined the fate of the team, and in particular, the fate of Husky.

Is this really no problem?--The leopard man boy became more and more worried.
