Chapter 13: The Chase of Life and Death

On top of the steep rock wall, four figures climbed up in the shimmer of dawn. Without any security measures, the four of them climbed with their bare hands as if they were outlaws. Especially the three people below, as if they had forgotten the danger under their feet, they did not hesitate to make onlookers feel their scalps tingle in order to be able to chase the enemy as soon as possible.

Joshua and Joyce still have a relationship with each other, and they are the only ones who can complete their first rock climb on their own. As a beginner, his movements looked funny and dangerous, and he had almost slipped off a cliff several times after climbing the rock for a short time. Fortunately, this time, the [Blood Fury] in his hand really helped, and the blade would always bite the rock wall tightly in a critical moment until the master adjusted his position.

But it has to be said that with his recklessness, he has far surpassed Joshua and Joyce, and has caught up with Laurie on his head. At this rate, he could have stopped the pirates before they entered the vault.

However, the chased Laurie also did not slacken, and he also had a goal in mind that he had to accomplish. Glancing at the madman below who was catching up at an alarming speed, he remembered what kind of opponent he was facing this time. He gritted his teeth, looked at him fiercely, and struck the rock wall with the climbing pickaxe in his hand, and then the large and small gravel fell downward.

"Uncle, this guy is yin enough!" Yu Yi, who could avoid the falling rocks, scolded in a low voice, this evaluation is not just because of piracy at this time. Now, looking at the figure of the brown-haired pirate, he had the illusion in his heart that the pirate in front of him was the same two people he had met in the fishy harbor before.

He had the impression that this brown-haired pirate, whether he was cowardly or not, at least his humble demeanor, words and deeds deduced that he was a person with a bottom line. Look at the current behavior of pirates - to achieve their ends by any means. Maybe it's because of the changes on the island, or maybe that's what this guy really is. If all the previous performances were disguised, then the insidiousness under this performance is really terrifying.

Yu Yi remembered what Ying said, and the inheritance of the Demon King would stimulate the dark side of his heart. So, if it is an already sinister guy, how terrible the darkness in his heart will be. "You can't let this sinister guy get his hands on that wine cup!" Again, he stressed to himself.

Thinking of this, he no longer dodged the falling stones. Directly against the impact of the falling rocks, he hit it upwards, anyway, those falling rocks can only barely cause him '-1' damage except for a little pain.

And with Yu Yi's "standing up", Joshua and Joyce simply don't have to worry about falling rocks. And, following the dents left by the greatsword in the rock wall, their climbing speed also increased.

In this way, the four people on the cliff seemed to adapt to the dangerous environment as you chased me. Eventually, the only ones who will be worried about their situation are those who are waiting below.

Bai Siling looked at the desperate appearance of the deed master, and was so nervous that he was about to pinch the hard bow in his hand. However, she felt the silver-haired woman beside her tap her shoulder, and she looked back to see that the other party did not seem to pay attention to the cliff at all, but stayed in the direction from which she came. So, she looked in the direction of the other party's gaze with doubts.

Before she could see anything noteworthy, she heard the other party say, "Elf, you really rely too much on the wind." Are you so sluggish when there is no wind? Be careful, someone is coming. ”

On the cliffs

"Hey! Stop! You can't run away! Yu Yi shouted at the pirates who were only a few meters away from him, and after a chase, the distance between them was about to be completely zeroed, but the entrance to the treasure house was already close at hand. At the sound of the voice, the pirate turned his head, and when he saw his pursuers not far away, his eyes did falter for a moment.

Indeed, Yu Yi's appearance of bleeding at this time is really daunting to look at. During the pursuit, although the damage caused to him by the falling rocks was not worth mentioning, it was inevitable that he would go up against the falling rocks, and it was inevitable that he would become the bloodied appearance at this time. Under this look, the persuasion just now is extremely powerful.

At this moment, Joyce, who was chasing after her, heard the movement above and shouted, "Laury! Stop being stupid, and don't force me to treat you like an enemy! Come back as if nothing had happened. ”

After turning his head to look at the female pirate again, the hesitation in Laurie's eyes disappeared completely. He turned his head, no longer paying any attention to the three of them, and dragged his body up with a pickaxe after pickaxe.

"I knew it would be like this, and I would die without repentance!" Seeing this, Yu Yi also gave up the idea of saving effort at the end. Climbing again in his own unique way, he was now far faster than Laurie on the rock face after a little habitation. It won't take more than a few minutes to catch up with Laurie a few meters away.

Feeling the shaking on the stone wall getting closer, Laurie became more and more nervous, and he realized that he had unwittingly taken on the role of prey, and the trapper's claws were already on the verge of rubbing against his ankles. It's almost there! He looked at the entrance to the treasury and pressed himself. It's just a little bit closer! The voice behind him sounded again: "If you don't want to fall, just stop honestly." ”

It sounded like the other party could grab his feet with just one stretch of his hand. Laurie listened, and if he continued to climb, he really didn't know what would happen, after all, that madman had just bloodbathed a shipload of pirates.

"Stop your little movements and climb down on your own." The threatening voice continued.

Laurie moves his pickaxe and leans downward. However, the moment the pickaxe in his right hand was raised, he quickly threw it upward, and almost simultaneously the man jumped out.

Yu Yi, who had already relaxed his nerves slightly, was so shocked that he couldn't react for a while. For a moment, he even thought that the pirate was preparing to commit suicide because of the hopelessness of revenge, but after a while, he saw that a rope was fixed to the head of the pickaxe that was thrown, and he realized that the other party's small action just now was actually doing this! The pirates escaped his control by risking their lives, even risking their lives.

He thought the way he was climbing was crazy enough, but he didn't think that this guy had even more crazy ideas. For a moment, he forgot to continue to chase, and only focused on the figure in the air.

In order to prevent him from reacting, the pirate jumped up the moment the pickaxe threw it, and he didn't even know if the pickaxe would catch the rock wall in the end. This height, to say the least, is tens of meters, and if you fall down, the sea water under the cliff will not be able to help.

"Wow!"

The pirate won the bet, and the climbing pickaxe gripped firmly to the edge of the entrance to the vault. With the help of the pickaxe, the pirate swung the rope to a position away from Yu Yi, and with the remaining pickaxe in his left hand and the rope, he climbed up at an unprecedented speed.

"Mr. Warrior! Chase! ”

With Joshua's shout, Yu Yi recovered from the shock. If what I saw before was just a sinister opponent, now this opponent has shown terrifying courage and courage. As a result, as he could imagine, the consequences of the Abyssal Wine Cup falling into the hands of pirates became more and more terrifying. He must be stopped! This time, it was no longer said with the mouth, the voice came from the heart.

Approaching the entrance, it's time for the final sprint! Perhaps under the influence of his opponent, Yu Yi became more and more desperate at the moment, and he didn't even care whether his feet were already solid on the cliff or not, and the movements in his hands had already started one after another.

Ten meters, nine meters...... Little by little, in the final chase, the two racing men kept glancing at the distance between themselves and their opponents out of the corner of their eyes. And in the end, it seems that because Yi is slightly superior, the speed and power that his body can burst out are not at all comparable to that of a small pirate. Of course, there was only one space left between the pirate and the spacious entrance to the vault.

Yu Yi's left hand climbed to the edge of the entrance and exit, and he pushed upward, and his body slowly rose. And as soon as his gaze rose past the edge of the entrance, his eyes saw a dark shadow standing above him, as if looking down on him.

"No, no, no, no......" The ominous premonition rose as he prayed in his heart. At this time, the sky was dark, and he couldn't see what the black shadow was, but ...... He could already feel the hostility from the other side. For a while, he didn't even dare to use his left hand to support his body, his whole body tensed, and after a burst of heat on his scalp, countless cold sweats oozed out.

When the few people below already thought that the chase was over, a scream broke the silence.

"Ahhh

With a long exclamation, the three of them saw that the young man who was about to enter the entrance of the treasure house fell straight from the cliff at this time. With such a sudden change, the three of them were completely caught off guard, and they could only watch dumbfounded as the figure got closer and closer to death. They don't even have time to ask in their heads, "What just happened?" ”

Just as the three of them were looking down at the person who had fallen from their feet, suddenly, a dark red light rushed downward. After being surprised, they realized that it was the great sword that rushed out this time, and it seemed to be chasing its own master with the speed at which it fell. Maybe the idea was a little crazy, but that's the first reaction of the three of them.

When Yu Yi woke up from the moment he had just fainted from being attacked by a black shadow, he found that he was already doing a high-altitude vertical landing exercise. At this time, he could no longer see the things around him clearly, and he couldn't count on anyone to save him. So, he just wanted to give a middle finger to the guy who had just pushed him down before GameOver.

However, with a slight movement of his fingers, he felt that he had touched something. In his trance, there seemed to be a voice constantly calling out to him, making him clench his hands. No longer hesitating, he clenched his right hand tightly. A familiar feeling came, it was the hilt of the sword!

With his grip, the blade of the [Blood Fury] sword plunged into the rock wall, and with a flash of dark red light, the blade was fixed in the rock wall, holding his master tightly. However, the huge force of the fall still caused the blade to slide through the rock wall, but fortunately, the speed was slower, and it finally stopped more than ten meters above the ground.

Resisting the huge impact on his arm, and after his body stopped completely, Yu Yi confirmed that he had actually survived. And what saved him was undoubtedly the [Blood Fury] in his own hands. "Man, you saved my life. I thought it was over this time, but it's good that you didn't give up on me," he said to the Great Sword for the rest of his life, "I owe you my life." Just rush to this, no matter what kind of sword you are, and what trouble it will cause me in the future, I swear - I will never give up on you. ”

This time, the spiritual [Blood Fury] seemed to have failed to understand its master's words, and the dark red light on the blade flickered twice before disappearing.

"Hey, I'm quite arrogant." Yu Yi chuckled. To be honest, when he decided not to use this sword anymore, he had the idea of finding a place to seal and preserve this sword. However, after today's incident, it would be ungrateful for him to do so again.

When he came back to his senses, he remembered the purpose of his climb on the cliff. When I looked up, I saw three figures all stopped there. He hesitated for a moment, and finally opened his throat and shouted, "Don't be stunned! Hurry up and catch up with him! Be careful when at the entrance! ”

Sure enough, his voice not only alerted Joshua and Joyce, but the pirate Laurie also reacted. They suppressed all the question marks in their minds and climbed up with their hands and feet.

But, without a doubt, the first person to enter the treasury was the pirate Laurie. The two people who followed followed were slow for a long time before rushing into the treasure house. But simply, no one fell down again this time.

"What was that?" Slide down a little and retreat to the ground. Yu Yi looked up at the entrance of the treasure house, constantly thinking about who had pushed him down. And why weren't Joyce and Joshua attacked after that? It looked as if the shadow was helping Laurie......

"Hey, are you alright?" A cold voice stopped his thoughts.

Looking back, Bosling and Shadow had already arrived in front of him. The elven girl's face was full of panic, and she stepped forward and grabbed his hand, although her mouth was silent, but her eyes were full of concerned questions.

"Don't worry, it's okay." He touched the elf's head, then looked back at the shadow. It's obviously a word of concern, but when it comes out of her mouth, it looks like she is collecting a debt, but fortunately, he is used to it. What's more, as long as he pays a little attention, he can see the worry that can't be hidden in the eyes of the face woman.

Yes, he has now understood that this is how to get along with the two women in front of him, learning to communicate with each other.

"I'm fine, but I'm afraid I'm going to have big trouble in the future." Glancing up, Yu Yi sighed. He could vaguely predict the outcome of the three-man chase in the treasure house. He turned his head to Bai Siling and said, "Our beautiful mage's magic has dried up and has not recovered, and it is estimated that the battle for a while will only depend on the two of us." ”

As soon as the elf girl nodded obediently in response, a voice came from the woods behind her:

"Brother Yi, don't panic. Isn't there still mine? ”

Looking at the three people who walked out of the woods, Yu Yi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment:

"Aesop?"
