Chapter 345: The Top of the Phantom Mountain: Falling Heaven
"What the hell is this! This doesn't want us to live at all! "Some of the players seem to have been broken through the psychological defense, standing in place and scolding angrily and stomping their feet; The rest of the team seemed to be on the verge of collapse as they scrambled to the last of their senses to observe the two forks in the road ahead, as if trying to find out which way they had come from.
There were a lot of rockfalls and small stones on the ground of the tunnel they walked through, and they should have left a little trace of how many people walked through it one after another, but why didn't they leave any traces on the first two roads? Could it be that neither of these roads was the same path they had taken when they came?
And only Gong Piqing looked back at the exit of this tunnel; Countless burning stones fell from the sky, just like a program he watched in the Xiguan Renai Mental Hospital, it was a film about the extinction of dinosaurs, he didn't know if it was a real documentary or a movie, anyway, he just remembered that the natural disaster that made the dinosaurs extinct at that time was also like this, the sky was fiery red, the earth was fiery red, and between heaven and earth were countless burning meteorites, these meteorites were like the anger of a certain god in the world after his anger, smashing the earth to the ground.
At that time, he was thinking, nature is really powerful, dinosaurs are so powerful that they can be extinct in such a disaster, but human beings are still polluting the environment by various means...... But now, he really realized the fear of the dinosaurs when they faced the fire meteor in the sky, but to put it bluntly, he was not so afraid, maybe because the real disaster had not yet come, maybe because he knew in his heart that he couldn't hide, so he saved the fear of death, and it was better to wait for death with peace of mind.
If he was the only one in the team, he might have done so, taking a blanket out of his backpack and spreading it on the ground, this tunnel was lukewarm, and his bag also had his favorite strawberry cake and egg tarts, and it was a good choice to lie down and face death honestly.
But he can't do it now, because he still has teammates, even if he wants to give up resistance, there must be people in their team who don't want to give up resistance, and he is reluctant to let others give up resistance, after all, I am a spineless and ambitious psychopath, you are not, after returning from this mission, you will definitely get a lot of rewards from the Mill Institute, you have only walked on the real peak of life since then, and the good show in your life has not yet begun, You can't just give up your resistance......
He was also reluctant to Zhang Yuemei, originally Zhang Yuemei was not as good-looking as she is now, it was after he helped Zhang Yuemei awaken her bloodline that Zhang Yuemei became like this, you look so good-looking, if you die in this mission, it must be God blind, right...... If I were Lord Yama and I saw you come to report to me, I would definitely send you back to the world, saying that you are so good-looking that you can't die......
"Right...... I can't die either......" He seemed to realize something from his heart, and the people at the Mill Institute also said that they would hold a wedding for him and Zhang Yuemei after he returned, wouldn't that be the pinnacle of his life? His life is not over yet! He can't be a spineless and aspiring psychopath! After he goes back, he has to cooperate with the treatment to cure his mental illness, otherwise how can he let Zhang Yuemei marry a mental illness!
Right...... He can't give up, he can't fall, now they are alive, and to live is hope!
"Come brothers, find a way! Find a chance to give him this illusion to rot! We'll be able to get out! He suddenly became enthusiastic as if he had been beaten suddenly, and then gave a "follow me" order with a gesture, and trotted in at a random fork in the road.
The team members are also cooperative, they have been running behind him, after turning a few corners, they can't see the scene outside, but it is estimated that the meteor shower outside is getting bigger and bigger, the ground under their feet has been shaking to varying degrees, occasionally there will be a loud noise on the mountain, presumably a big meteorite fell, they don't know how long the mountain they are on can last, and they don't know if this kind of mountain can let them survive this natural disaster, They can only look like a swarm of ants to survive in the midst of a catastrophe where there should be no chance of survival.
But they actually know in their hearts that everything at the moment cannot be regarded as a natural disaster, because this is a trap set by the enemy for them, and they now know that this is an illusion, and they have to find a way to destroy this illusion as if they were in that forest, destroying the illusion is the only way to end this catastrophe, and it is also the only possibility for them to survive!
Yes, that's right! This is the only way for them to survive, this world-destroying natural disaster is not uncontrollable, and the only way to stop it is to destroy the illusion!
But the question arises again, they are not professional illusion mages, how can they destroy this illusion? In the illusion of the last forest, Gong Piqing burned down the forest with a power comparable to the mythical fire god Zhurong and finally broke the illusion, where the forest was their enemy, and destroying the forest was equivalent to destroying the illusion, but now? Their enemy is a meteor shower in the sky, a whole mountain group, could it be that he wants to destroy this world?
But before he could hold back the answers to these questions in his heart, the despair in their hearts suddenly increased by the scene in front of them, because the tunnel in front of them was not the unfinished dark passage they had walked through when they came, but a great uphill slope; No one knew where this uphill led to, but when they first came, whether it was the unfinished dark passage or this tunnel, the whole was very flat, and there was no uphill or downhill at all, and now that they saw this big uphill, it means that they were going the wrong way.
The meteor shower outside seemed to be a prelude to the destruction of the world, the ground under their feet shook more and more, the tunnels were full of small rockfalls and dust generated by the shaking of the mountain, and the tunnels around them frequently made the sound of stone cracking, as if the mountain would not last long.
But the question they now face is whether to continue down this wrong path.
Before Gong Piqing could think clearly, there was an unprecedented loud noise above their heads again, which sounded as if an oversized meteorite had fallen directly on top of their heads, and in an instant, the entire tunnel was covered with dust after some stones had been shaken, and at the same time, the tunnel also echoed from an unknown place The sound of rolling thunder came from somewhere.
It is estimated that if this mountain takes two or three more such heavy blows, the whole mountain will be crushed.
It wasn't long before they finally learned where the thunderous noise was coming from; The loud bang just now seemed to have smashed down the top of their mountain, and the tunnel seemed to extend from the top of the mountain, and that burst of sound was actually the sound of those broken boulders rolling down the tunnel!
When they saw it, many big stones rolled down towards them like a flood that had burst the gates, no one knew how these boulders rolled into the tunnel they were in so coincidentally, and fortunately, those boulders had a lot of edges and corners so the speed at which they rolled down was not too fast, all of them subconsciously turned around and ran back, and even the mage on Gong Piqing's back saw that the boulder was rolling down and pinched Gong Piqing so hard that he could run quickly......
Exhausted, they burst out with unprecedented strength again, and the group immediately ran along the same path, and soon returned to the fork in the road that had put them in a dilemma......
So the fork in the road suddenly became the spiritual pillar of all of them, and when they ran to that position, the rolling stones behind them were already chasing after them, everything was as accurate as if someone had calculated it, and when they turned into the fork in the road, the rolling stones behind them also rolled past where they were a few seconds ago, and they stopped in the fork in the road and gasped, thinking that if they went a little further, they should be able to see the unfinished tunnel, and they would have escaped from this catastrophe......
After dodging the rolling stones, their speed slowed down, and they walked along the road under their feet, probably because no one paid attention to some details around them when they came, this fork in the road was still very strange to them, but no matter what, as long as they could see the unfinished tunnel, it was considered a success, but on the contrary, God seemed to be joking with them, after all, they still did not wait for the unfinished tunnel to appear in front of them, but waited for a new round of despair and fear......
