Chapter 145: Mountaineering (Part II)
The wind was raging in the darkness, and the fire was blazing, and Achilles was now hiding behind a rock, extinguishing the torch.
A few dozen meters ahead, a black giant eagle and a bighorn deer with a fire all over their bodies were facing each other, from time to time a few splashing sparks or a few black feathers were scattered.
Achilles' face was a little ugly, not because he was afraid or anything.
That's what the pavers said!
It didn't lie to itself when it said that.
Looking at the sky, Achilles was a little anxious again, and made sure that he would not alarm the two monsters in front of him, Achilles quietly retreated and then turned around and ran.
The pavers were right, the path was the way up the mountain, but Achilles was delaying too much time now.
Back at the intersection and running towards the path, Achilles was already at full speed.
There was so much time on the road just now.
Achilles held a flickering torch in his hand, illuminating the area around him.
The path was quiet, and Achilles didn't feel any danger, but after he had been running for more than ten minutes, there seemed to be a faint sound of water in his ears.
Achilles listened as he ran, and the sound of the water grew louder and louder, as if there was a river in front of him.
Rounding a bend and passing through a grove, Achilles had to stop, for there was indeed a large river in front of him, about twenty meters wide, that lay in front of him.
Don't panic, there is a river and a bridge, otherwise how can you go up the mountain?
Achilles comforted himself, and then walked around with torches to find a bridge.
But the result disappointed him, he looked for the left and right sides of the river, but not to mention the bridge, not a single log or rope was found.
"What does it mean there is no bridge?"
Achilles grabbed his hair and thought about it, and suddenly remembered that a distance of twenty meters was impossible for him, but for Charon, it might not even be a small ditch, and people didn't seem to need such a thing as a bridge.
"He's really, he knows that I can't get by, and he still wants me to go to the top of the mountain, what do you mean!"
Achilles couldn't help but sit down and complain, he hadn't eaten breakfast now, he was really a little tired and hungry.
Achilles sat down and rested for a while, and when he was sure that he could not cross the river, he immediately turned back and walked down the mountain.
He decided to go back to the cave first, take two sips of the moon fruit, and then lie down on the bed to catch up on sleep.
It is a waste of time to work hard when you know you can't do it.
On the way back to the cave, Achilles couldn't help but be angry at the fact that Charon had asked him to climb the mountain.
A mountain wind blew and blew through Achilles' body, suddenly calming him down.
Like a bolt of lightning in his mind, the words that Caron had spoken as he left echoed in his ears as they were.
"Go along the widest road, don't worry about getting lost. ”
By the way, what Charon said is indeed the widest road. But it was a path that I walked.
Achilles couldn't help but think, as a world-recognized heroic mentor, would Charon make such a low-level mistake?
No way!
Since Charon said that it is the widest road, it must be the widest road, even if it is the road down the mountain, it must have his reason.
After figuring it out, Achilleston slapped his thigh, and he walked right at the earliest!
Looking up at the sky, it had been about an hour since Achilles came out, and the sky had some signs of whitening.
But now that he has a direction, even if there is only one minute left, it is impossible for Achilles to give up.
Closing his eyes, he opened them again, and a golden light crossed Achilles' pupils.
The source power that had never been deliberately cultivated since taking the Seagod's Tears surged again.
The golden source power poured into his legs, and the speed that had been a flash in the pan on Achilles that night on the island of Aegina last summer exploded again.
The source qi of Pingdasi Mountain is dozens of times thicker than that of the outside world, and now Achilles can faintly see the golden air flow undulating like a small python between his breaths.
A golden light and shadow crossed, and the torch in his hand pulled out an old elder's flame in the darkness.
The warnings that Aeakos had given him had been forgotten by Achilles, and he didn't want to think about the trouble he would cause by using the source power at this time, he just wanted to appear in front of Charon before the first rays of sunlight reached the top of Pondath Mountain.
His body was running at full speed, and last year on the island of Aegina, at such speeds, Achilles felt his lungs burn in just a minute or two, but now, he has been running for ten minutes and still does not feel any discomfort.
And it was like a warm-up before a decisive battle, and Achilles could indeed feel his body getting hotter and hotter.
It wasn't the kind of heat that had nowhere to vent, but a kind of burning heat, and he felt that he was in better shape than ever.
Turning a horseshoe bend, not far ahead of the original fork in the road, a golden light and shadow flashed, and Achilles instantly crossed the road.
"It's unexpectedly fast. ”
On the top of Pondath Mountain, Kajon crossed his arms over his chest and looked down at the bottom of the mountain, his brown eyes under his messy hair seemed to penetrate the darkness and clouds, and he didn't know what to move.
Behind him, a faint silver glow shimmered on a round, flat rock, and dense silver streaks of light flowed like mercury.
"Maybe this kid can really come to the mountains earlier than the sun. ”
The corners of Charon's mouth suddenly showed a smile that was not easy to find, "The Styx Divine Body, it's really a surprise. ”
After two more glances, Charon suddenly raised his head, as if to the air, and said, "You all go back." ”
And at this moment, down the road, several legendary-level giant beasts sounded this sentence in their ears.
Several giant beasts glanced at each other and disappeared into the darkness.
In the position closest to Achilles' position, a pair of black giant eagles and flame bighorn deer who were fighting suddenly separated, and they unexpectedly left each other behind, and in the blink of an eye, they went their separate ways.
"Boy, I've given you a lot of opportunities. ”
Charon muttered, then closed his eyes.
......
Achilles didn't know that Charon had reduced the difficulty for him, jumping over a huge rock, a pair of giant beasts not far away before had now disappeared, and now the enthusiastic Achilles didn't care about these details at all, he just wanted to run faster and faster......
The sky was getting whiter, and Achilles' physical strength was beginning to fade, and the most embarrassing thing was that the road was indeed heading down the mountain.
Achilles didn't know how to get to the top of the mountain, and all he could do now was spread his legs and never stop!
