Chapter Twenty-Six: Descending the Mountain

Twilight stood in front of the stone platform and waited silently with a nervous face, he was in a hurry now, his perception continued to stimulate his sensitive nerves, but he could only wait patiently, the cylindrical pillar on the platform kept rising, and another pillar came up, from here it seemed to be hollowed out, there must be something inside! Twilight thought with certainty.

As the pillar was all raised, Twilight was able to see it in its entirety, the cylindrical pillar that had been hidden in the stone platform was solid from top to bottom, except for the middle section, which seemed to hold something inside, and it must be very important to look at these arrangements.

Twilight quickly reached out and took out the contents and threw them into the storage space without even looking at them, then turned and ran down the steps, glancing at the still calm Deep Blue Reservoir again, and turning around the altar and running out of the mountain.

As I said before, this mountain is like a cup full of water, the dam and the waterfall are the direction in which Twilight Star came, it is the east of the reservoir, and the location of this altar is the west, if Twilight Star returns the same way now, it will inevitably pass around the reservoir, although it has been calm, but Twilight Star does not dare to risk death like this when he knows that it is dangerous, especially he doesn't know if he will cause any accidents if he takes this thing now.

Standing in front of the cliff, Twilight looked helplessly at the undulating mountains in the distance, the edge of the mountain had not been explored before, but it turned out to be a cliff, and it seemed that only the waterfall in the east could walk up.

"Huh?" Twilight Star glanced into the distance, and vaguely seemed to see something, it seemed to be a tall tower? However, it could also be a slightly smaller cliff, too far away, and now that time was urgent, Twilight was not able to tell it carefully, because he had to find a way to get out of the mountain now, and after a little note of the general direction there, Twilight focused his attention on his feet.

Twilight propped her hands on the ground and poked her head out to look at the cliff at her feet, fortunately, although it looked precipitous, there were still many places to climb down slowly.

After choosing a place, Twilight turned his back to the mountains, grabbed the cliff with both hands, leaned down, and then slowly stepped on a raised rock, and stepped on it a little harder to make sure it didn't collapse, shifted his weight slightly, and then reached out again to touch the other rocks and slowly climbed down. It's easy to go up the mountain and hard to go down, that's it, this cliff is quite easy to climb, if you climb up from below, it will be a lot easier, but if you want to go down, it will be really difficult.

"I'm a martial arts department, the main god actually asked me to play adventure treasure hunting, it really deserves to be the main god who encourages joining the group, after all, everyone is good at different fields, this is forcing the apostles to hold a group and develop in an all-round way." Twilight thought to herself as she slowly felt her way down the cliff.

Looking at the bare rock wall in front of him, Twilight suddenly thought of something.

"If this mountain is like a cup, isn't where I am now the wall of the cup?" Twilight's mind suddenly had this creepy thought, so wasn't he now separated from the mysterious monster in the reservoir by an unknown layer of rocks?

Just as Twilight Star was a little stunned, his feet suddenly emptied, and with the sound of rubble rolling, Twilight Star grabbed a piece of gravel that had broken away from the rock wall and continued to fall towards the bottom of the cliff.

Twilight felt the weightlessness coming from his body and panicked, he glanced at the ground below in a panic, and clearly understood his situation at this time, if he didn't make some moves, it was unlikely that he would be smashed into a meatloaf, because the position where he fell was not very high from the ground, but death was still inevitable, at most it was relatively complete.

Twilight forced himself to calm down quickly, he had plenty of battlefield experience, he was just a little flustered by the suddenness of the incident, but after calming down, he quickly understood what he should do.

Twilight summoned the long knife, and the blade slammed down into the cliff, the sharp blade plunged into the rock wall without hindrance, and then as Twilight fell downward, it made a straight cut in the rock wall, and with the sound of cutting, rubble and sparks splashed everywhere.

After continuing to fall down for a distance, Twilight Star controlled the long knife in his hand no longer with a straight edge pointing down, but began to tilt, tilting left and right and sliding down, so as to increase friction and reduce the speed of his fall, after all, this knife is too sharp, don't look at this knife There is no way to take the stone platform on the altar, but it is also a D-class magic weapon, and the sharpness in the face of these mortal things is unimaginable. Twilight kept the tilt in check, and didn't turn the knife sideways, because he didn't know how tough the knife was, and what if it broke? After all, the angle at which the force is applied horizontally is undoubtedly the easiest angle for this type of weapon to break.

Twilight fell some distance again, and as he got closer to the ground, he fell more and more slowly. Twilight looked down again, estimating her distance from the ground. Twilight held the hilt of the knife in both hands, arched his body, his waist was forced, and his feet kicked the rock wall, and the whole person flew backwards, and pulled out the long knife stuck in the rock wall.

Twilight used the force of that kick to pull off a backflip in the air, and landed smoothly on the ground with her legs slightly bent.

At this time, if you come to a knife and return it to the sheath, a whole set of actions is very perfect, if you can score it, it must be a full score, but unfortunately the knife is not sheathed.

Twilight took a look at his surroundings, and the long knife in his hand scattered into dots of light and vanished.

Only then did Twilight take out the items he had picked up from the altar on the mountain and take a closer look. It's a flat object the size of Twilight's palm, and it looks like a completely stone pentagonal shape, some like a medal, and the front is a character that Twilight doesn't understand at all, square, just like the altar, square shape, without any extra lace, looking like a character, this pentagonal thing should be pointed upwards and considered upright. Twilight flipped it over to the reverse side, which was a completely irregular shape, convex in some places, concave in others, and looked very precise.

Twilight played with it repeatedly, and couldn't see what the use of this thing was at all, but one thing was certain, this thing couldn't be damaged, and the corners couldn't work, because its reverse side was too precise, and it wasn't something that any inexperienced Twilight Star could imitate, once this thing broke, even if Twilight found its usage, it was probably useless, but this thing may be the same material as the stone platform, after all, it looks very important, If that's the case, Twilight doesn't have to worry about this thing breaking.

Taking the pentagonal item back into storage, Twilight thought about where she was going next, and finally decided to go to the place she had just seen when she was on the mountain, although she couldn't see it clearly because of the distance and time rush, but she vaguely saw something terrible, anyway, there was nowhere to go, so it was better to try your luck.

After determining the direction, Twilight Star glanced back at the cliff again, it was still calm, nothing happened, even though Twilight had just made such a long hole in the rock with his long knife in order to slow down, causing so much movement, it was still calm.

"Looks like it's okay." Twilight shook her head, turning and walking into the forest.

Before a series of various behaviors, Twilight didn't feel that he was making a big fuss, because he believed in his own perception incomparably, maybe the mysterious creature really wouldn't react, but since Twilight knew it, he should act in such a way, this may also be a defect in perception talent, it is easy to scare himself and make his nerves extremely sensitive.

This is like using apples to ripen other fruits, ripe apples will emit a lot of ethylene, ethylene can be used to ripen most fruits, which is completely harmless, can be eaten with confidence, unknowingly eating the ripened fruit may also appreciate that this fruit is good, quite sweet, but if you know that what you eat is not naturally ripe but ripened, then there will inevitably be pimples in your heart. The same fruit, knowing and not knowing when you eat the mood is completely different, sometimes knowing too much is not necessarily a good thing.
