Chapter Eighty-Three: Ellie's Awakening
"I don't believe it, I can't open it!"
Seeing that the situation was getting more and more critical, Karl's face was hideous, he raised his head to the sky and shouted angrily, his waist shook violently, and a huge force was concentrated in his right foot, as if it would explode at any time.
In a second, before the words had completely fallen, the iron-like legs slammed into the surface of the skylight with the power of ten thousand jun.
Open it for me!
Smack!
I saw that the originally unbreakable skylight suddenly made a crisp cracking sound, and then, like a domino effect, it shattered in an instant.
It's done!
Carl was overjoyed, and after more than a dozen attacks with his right foot, the skylight finally couldn't support it and shattered like glass.
However, suddenly an ominous feeling clouded my heart.
Carl looked down and looked down, and suddenly his face changed drastically, only to see that the gray fluid suddenly caught the trajectory of the iron chain and immediately attached to it, and the rest of the gray fluid began to crawl upward like maggots attached to the bone with the help of this bridgehead, which made Carl's scalp numb.
Gotta jump on!
Carl was determined, and after the chain shook several times, he saw the opportunity, like a flying squirrel, released the chain in his hand, and flew out, grasping the edge of the skylight.
Fortunately, Karl didn't grasp the shards of glass that remained on them, otherwise a pair of white and tender hands would have been cut to blood.
Carl looked down again, and the gray fluid had climbed to the height of a building, and his expression suddenly became extremely solemn.
What a speed!
His heart was shocked, the gray fluid had actually crossed the height of one story in an instant, didn't it mean that if he didn't leave this strange place quickly, he would be caught up by it?
Damn it!
No way!
I have to go faster!
Carl's gaze returned to the skylight, his hands moving like a clip, but his stamina would eventually run out, and besides, he might be crushed before he could run out.
"Ellie!" Carl shouted to the little girl who was hugging him behind him.
"Card ...... Brother Carl, what's wrong? At this time, the little girl Ellie was also frightened by the scene under her feet as if she had lost her soul, her face was as pale as winter snow, and she heard Carl shouting, and it took several seconds to come back to her senses.
Carl took a deep breath and suppressed all kinds of discomfort in his body before he said slowly: "Ellie, you climb up first, otherwise my brother can't bear the weight of the two, the climb just now has consumed a lot of my brother's strength, and now there is not much left." ”
Hearing this, Ellie was stunned for a moment, looked up at the broken skylight, and then looked at her feet, so she swallowed a mouthful of spit and said in a trembling voice: "But...... But, Brother Carl, I'm afraid. ”
Her head was pale, and the height of the three-story building had made her natural fear of heights begin to produce the oldest human emotion - fear.
Ellie thought that if she slipped her hand, she would definitely die if she fell from a three-story height, and even if she didn't, the gray fluid entrenched underneath would pounce on her, twisting her tiny body into meat sauce.
It's terrible!
She trembled and thought, beads of sweat pouring out like rain, wetting her back.
Carl sighed and said seriously: "Little girl, let me tell you, fight, there is still a glimmer of life, but if you don't fight, you must be ten deaths, even if it is nine deaths, it is an opportunity...... So, you choose that? ”
"Ellie, my brother is also from here, let me tell you, failure is not terrible, the terrible thing is that you don't even have the courage to try, this is the most frightening thing......"
Karl breathed a sigh of relief, and as he spoke, the height of the gray fluid increased a little, and it seemed that he was about to step into the position of the two.
"I believe that your father's thoughts are the same, I hope you can overcome everything you are afraid of, some things are not a problem at all, it just depends on whether you have the courage or not, that is, many people often say that the difference in thoughts, I don't know if you have the courage?"
With that, he paused and waited for her answer.
Ellie bowed her head in a daze, she has always been cowardly, and she has disappointed her father many times, every time her father wants to cultivate himself into a person who has the courage to face difficulties and fears, but she always relies on her father not to force herself to do things hastily.
So much so that now, there is no chance......
She thought gloomily, looking at her thin body, and she remembered that her father faced the group of predators watching them alone, when her father fought bloodily, but she herself could only hide and tremble, if it weren't for Brother Carl's invincible attitude to save them.
I'm afraid her body is already lying on the ground and stinking......
However, she really couldn't stop the fear that came out of nowhere! Even though she plucked up her courage many times, it didn't take long for it to be extinguished, like a deflated balloon.
But......
Do you really want to be so weak? Can't you really face the world like a boy? Don't you really want to get rid of the title of drag oil bottle!?
"Brother Carl......" After a long time, she opened her eyes and said a word.
"Little girl, have you figured it out? Have you finally overcome the fear in your heart? Carl was overjoyed and hurriedly asked.
"I'm sorry ......"
Ellie said, hearing this, Carl also sighed, too, she is a little girl after all.
But......
"I won't be weak anymore, I won't give up anymore, because, if I give up, even Brother Carl will be disappointed in me......" Ellie bit her lip and said suddenly.
She felt as if there was a powerful force behind her that was encouraging her, it was her father, her sister, and Carl's brother.
Hearing this, Carl smiled and said, "Little girl, it's good to think like this, you can go with confidence!" Brother Carl will always be watching you from behind, and as long as Brother Carl is still there, he won't let you fall! ”
Hearing this, Ellie, the little girl, became more confident, originally she was still a little apprehensive, worried that she could really do it? Will you die after failure? Will I live up to my brother's expectations of me?
However, Di didn't have to worry about this now, because, even Brother Carl didn't care about these anymore, what else was she worried about? Just do your best, and Brother Carl will protect her from behind!
Well, that's it!
Ellie's eyes lit up with a bright light, and her heart clenched her fists, and finally, with unprecedented courage, she began to climb up alone.
Actually, it's not difficult, just half a meter height is very easy for Ellie, in the end, it's just the fear in her heart that is at work, as long as she takes that step, half a meter height is like eating and drinking water for him.
Soon, Ellie crawled out.
"It's my turn, too." Carl said to himself.
