At this point, the crystal has completely disappeared, leaving only an all-stone platform that is 10 meters high. Mary looked at the red crystal on her chest again, and when she looked up, she saw that the animal had disappeared without a trace.

Coming and going without a trace, Mary seemed to be used to the other party's way. Walking slowly down the only staircase, I glanced at the river that had completely dried up, and gently crossed two meters to the opposite bank.

Redoning her wet undershirt and military uniform, Mary left the cave and went to the river without hesitation. He looked back at the road he came from again and sighed: "Water Spirit Palace, a cemetery from a previous life!

After speaking, he jumped directly into the underground river, and rushed against the current in the direction where he came.

The speed of the whole figure is extremely fast, even faster than ordinary people going down the water.

Less than a minute after Mary left, a drop of water slowly oozed from the top of the stone platform.

"Let's go!" fell on the stone platform and splashed everywhere.

On the ground, the center of Imperial Island is also the highest crown peak on the island.

At this time, Atina was under the leadership of her captain, and the other eight members of the team searched the mountain together. Everyone else's goal is Stone Flower, but Atina has Mary in her heart.

But this did not prevent them from moving forward together, but the storm seemed to show no signs of stopping, and within that day and night, the wind and rain had increased a little more again.

Enduring the intense pressure of the wind and rain, a group of nine people staggered through the mountains and forests.

At this moment, Atina seemed to tremble slightly under her feet, and immediately looked back at the people around her and shouted: "Captain, the ground is shaking, beware of mudslides!"

The other eight people couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this, and each hugged a big tree and nodded quickly. Before everyone could do something again, all of a sudden, they all felt that the ground was really violent.

The captain couldn't help but shout in horror: "Run!"

The whole team immediately turned around and ran down the mountain, and in order to prevent their speed from being different, a total of nine people gradually dispersed completely, and all of them went down the mountain as fast as possible without slipping.

Fortunately, the mountains were rugged and densely vegetated, so they didn't go deep into the mountains. However, even under these conditions, their escape speed is greatly limited.

In less than a minute, they only heard a loud "boom" halfway up the mountain, and the nine people were immediately shaken to the ground.

But at this time, there was no time to think carefully, and the mudslide caused by the heavy rain actually happened. And listening to the loud noise behind him, it seems that there is also a landslide.

You must know that Emperor Island used to dig for jadeite, and there were many mines that have been used or even unused.

Although the garrisons of the past and even the present have often sent troops to fix the pits to prevent collapse in the name of training, it is the first time in decades that the current catastrophic weather has occurred.

Such a fierce wind and rain seemed to have completely washed away an abandoned mine pit on the mountainside.

As for how far away they were, none of the nine of them had the time to look back. It's just a desperate run forward, even if there are some small vine obstacles that have no time to be cleared, they can only let it scratch the skin of their cheeks and arms.

"Boom!" the sound of the torrent behind him was getting closer and closer, but everyone kept it almost the same frequency. Although there is a slight difference in speed, it is efficient and rhythmic.

It wasn't until everyone had rushed out of the dense forest for hundreds of meters and had come to a higher part of a gentle slope that they had time to turn around and look back for the first time. Suddenly, he was frightened into a cold sweat by the scene behind him.

I saw that one or two thousand meters away in the pouring rain curtain, the flat mountain forest that was almost as gentle as the mountain had completely disappeared from sight at this time. It's like a giant with a thousand feet tall taking a big bite on the mountainside of the "cake".

Countless mud soup and broken wood boulders rushed down the water, and they were already less than two hundred meters away.

Seeing this, the captain immediately roared: "Run! Avoid the mudslide and run to both sides!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone immediately followed behind the captain and Atina, one left and one right to the sides and ran frantically again.

Standing on a gentle slope almost exhausted, all four, including Atina, breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the remnants of the muddy soup that "boomed" down the river in front of them, everyone wiped the rain on their faces.

Only then did Atina look at the other side of the mudslide, the five people who were also standing on a gentle slope, and saw that their companions were safe and sound.

He greeted the three people around him: "Everyone is fine, continue the mission!"

"But!" the girl closest to her immediately asked, "Atina, there is already a mudslide on the mountain, and it is too dangerous for us to go up again." Isn't it?"

"Okay!" Atina immediately interrupted, "It's okay if you don't go, I'll go alone." ”

After saying that, he immediately walked away from the place where the mudslide occurred without looking back, and disappeared into the woods up the mountain without looking back.

The other three looked at each other, and finally sighed in unison and followed Atina. At this dangerous moment, Atina can't be left alone, and if something goes wrong, not to mention the mission, even the princess can't explain it.

Although they and Mary have been together for three years, they have no affection for Mary because the princess has been targeting her. Unexpectedly, the princess's attitude suddenly reversed, and after seeing Mary's daughter, she immediately announced that she was going to find Shihua.

Some of them have heard of this term, and the flowers that bloom are blue-gray, and the shape is like a human head with complete facial features, so it is called a stone "head" flower.

As for the function, it is said that after soaking the water boiled from the stone flowers, it can keep the corpse from decaying for thousands of years. But whether this is true or not, no one can say clearly.

Although the captain is leading the team now, if Atina sends a word, it may be even better than the captain's order. Just like now Atina has to go up the mountain a second time, and they have to follow along.

Observe the surrounding terrain first, so as to save the mudslide and no time to escape!

Fortunately, there were no accidents in the future, although the four of them completely lost contact with the captain, they also passed through the main peak of Wangguan Peak safely, and came to a military camp sentry post on the other side of the ridge to rest.

Each had two large bowls of ginger soup in their stomachs, and only after the whole body warmed up did they eat food to replenish their strength.

Just as he was about to set off again, a soldier who was out on patrol at the gate hurriedly ran over: "Report, captain." Dongfang Haiya found a figure, judging from the figure, it was a red-haired woman. ”

"Mary!" Atina got up at once, and rushed into the rain before she could say a word. Seeing this, the three companions had to quickly follow, and the captain on duty also woke up instantly: "Why are you stunned, follow up and save people together!"
