Chapter 320: The Fifth Layer
A moment later, Wuqi hugged Julia, Rhodes carried Nakolulu on his back, McCarthy and Charlie each put one of their gloves on the rope sleeve, and Balk grabbed Hughes's waist with one hand, and a group of eight flew towards the white mist in the sky in this wonderful way like swinging.
It didn't take long, only a few seconds later, everyone was completely buried in the mist, and when Wuqi looked up, the joy in his eyes was replaced by undisguised admiration. Julia glanced at Wuqi suspiciously, and then looked up at the sky with Wuqi's gaze, and the confusion and incomprehension that had always existed in her eyes immediately disappeared, replaced by a thick joy and suddenness.
After entering the clouds, Balk looked up at the sky for the first time, and after a look, he understood why the blue light rope in the hands of his eight people could fly them together, it turned out that above the clouds and mist was not the sky, but the roof.
When he saw that the end of each blue light rope was firmly tied to the yellow rock wall above his head like nails, he finally couldn't help but feel the admiration in his heart for Xius, and he smiled and said, "I really didn't expect you to be on the edge of the cliff, so far away you can see the situation inside the clouds! ”
Hughes didn't speak, he just smiled and glanced at Balk as an answer, and Balk wanted to thank him, but at this moment, something suddenly came to his mind, and he put the thought of gratitude behind him for the time being, and at the same time raised his eyes to look ahead of the clouds.
At a glance, it seems that a layer of thick white mist has been paved on the ground, like snow, the white clouds are the ground, but the sky is not, only the rock wall above the head is like a ceiling, infinitely wide and infinitely long, but it is very beautiful.
But just a second later, Balk's face suddenly sank, he looked at the bottom of him except for the white clouds, his heart suddenly felt empty, and he asked with some concern: "Is there a place in front where we can stay?"
Xius shook his head silently, Balk's worry immediately turned into a heartbeat that accelerated dozens of times, his face suddenly turned pale, and he just wanted to speak again, but he suddenly felt that the speed of his flight forward did not know what to do, the speed suddenly slowed down, and after a while, before he could react to what was going on, he was startled again by the sudden sharp decrease in speed.
Startled, Balk couldn't help the nervousness in his heart, and asked urgently, "Hughes, what's going on?"
Hughes didn't answer, he just shook his head silently, but this time, it was slightly different from the previous one. He didn't just shake his head in response, but when he answered, his right hand quickly wiped in front of him, and an afterimage suddenly looked like a meteor, and after a flash in front of his eyes, four more feathered arrows immediately appeared in his hand.
At the end of the feathered arrows were four ropes that glowed with a pale blue light, four of the remaining eight feathered arrows he had stuck in his waist at the beginning.
Balk did not understand the intention of Hughes, and he was about to ask, but at this moment, he suddenly felt the speed of his flight suddenly pause, as if time had frozen in an instant, and no longer moved forward, but after a pause, began to move slowly backwards.
"Oh no! we should have reached the limit!" McCarthy's panicked roar suddenly came from a short distance to Balk's side.
When Balk heard this, his heart sank again, and he subconsciously glanced at everyone on the other three ropes.
At this time, Julia was just like a frightened little hedgehog, curled up in Wuqi's arms, although she didn't look at herself, but Balk could see very clearly, her sister's face was very pale at this time, and her body was trembling because she sensed the crisis at this time.
Wuqi was constantly comforting Julia by gently patting her on the back, and his expression was relatively calm, but Balk could see it clearly, and Wuqi's face was as pale as snow at the moment. But even so, they are much better off than McCarthy and Charlie Ren's.
"Captain, think of a way!" McCarthy's voice came again, and he was panicked like a helpless child, yelling and screaming. ,
"Forget it. Looks like it's time for me to meet the unicorns. "Charlie Ren next to him is much calmer than McCarthy at the moment, but Charlie Ren is obviously not much better. Although he didn't yell in panic like McCarthy, there was a clear sadness on his face, an expression that would only come after he had completely despaired of his situation.
Compared to their group, Rhodes's group is the quietest.
Nakolulu, who was carried by Rod, had been in a coma, so she wouldn't understand how dangerous it was at the moment, and she wouldn't be nervous and scared. As for Rod, he was originally a taciturn person, except for talking a little more in front of Wuqi, his indifferent temperament completely felt like an ice sculpture, unapproachable.
So at this time, his state is also like his temperament, he can't see the slightest panic, even trembling, and even his face is not pale at all.
It's just that no one knows that Rhodes is actually very nervous at this time, and even faintly has more and more uneasiness, after all, he is just a person. It would be frightening for a person to fall from such a height, or to swing back into the dense herd of demonic beasts like a locust from this rope like a swing.
The reason why Balk didn't see the uneasiness in Rod's heart was only because Rod's always indifferent expression covered up this uneasiness. Of course, if you look closely for a while, you can still see a faint trace of worry on his face.
But just imagine, a person who has a straight face all day long, as if you have some deep hatred with him, who would want to take a few more looks?
So Balk didn't find anything, but Wuqi saw it clearly. He knows Rod, and he cares about Rod's friend very much, otherwise he would not have killed the other party's master in order to save Rod. It's just a pretend, but that's all for later.
Due to the extremely fast swing speed of Wuqi and the others, everyone felt very cool at the same time under the strong wind, however, when they were keenly aware that the swing had reached the highest point, and was about to fall and return to the original terrifying Jedi at a faster speed, everyone's faces suddenly changed at this moment.
Even Wu Qi, who already had the state of mind of stopping water in the mirror, couldn't help but open his mouth at this moment, and asked in a roaring way: "Brother Xiusi, think of a way!"
Of course, unlike Balk, Wuqi said this only to remind Hughes, not to suspect Hughes. Although the tension was inevitable, he still trusted Hughes as much as ever. But Balk was different, and although he was ashamed of Hughes, he still did not have the courage to trust a person wholeheartedly without any reason.
Therefore, seeing that his rope had begun to show signs of slowly reverberating, he still shouted nervously in his heart: "Xius!"
Xius still didn't answer this time, silence after silence, but the movement in his hand was faster at this time, and almost in the blink of an eye, he put the four feathered arrows with the tail line open on top of the Soul Breaking Bow with a stroke of the void in his right hand.
The next moment, after hearing a "stretch" suddenly spit out from his mouth, the Soul Breaking Bow on his left hand was like a rubber band with excellent elasticity, and it actually extended wildly to both sides on its own, and the length of the Soul Breaking Bow was extended dozens of times in almost an instant.
When he saw that the dark green bow was all in front of everyone, Hughes suddenly took a deep breath and shouted at his loudest volume, "Grab the light rope in front of you!" Let's go!"
After finishing speaking, with the slight release of Xiusi's right hand, the four armor-piercing arrows immediately seemed to flash like meteors in the sky, "whoosh", and in an instant, I don't know how much distance they had crossed, almost just in an instant, the light suddenly dissipated, and at the same time, the blue light rope that continued to extend forward with the green light in front of him suddenly stopped. Wuqi, Rod, McCarthy and Balk did not hesitate to follow Hughes's instructions.
The eight figures immediately escaped from the unsolvable crisis at the same time. Almost instantly, everyone's faces once again showed unconcealable surprise and indescribable admiration for Theseus. ,
In the next minute, the eight of them continued to move forward and forward in this way, like a gibbon swinging in the jungle. Although there were only four blue light ropes left at the beginning, but later, under the careful consideration of Xiusi, in order to allow everyone to fly in the air for a longer time and get closer to the hope that rose in his heart, he advanced the last four arrows in the way that everyone shared an armor-piercing arrow and tied the light rope to the soul-breaking bow.
In the end, it turned out that Hughes succeeded.
"Look, what's that black thing in front of you?" Wuqi, who was no longer nervous on the swing and was completely accustomed to it, suddenly looked ahead with bright eyes, and said.
"That's ......" Balk's eyes froze suddenly, and a look of doubt gradually appeared on his face, but after a moment, a look of surprise immediately appeared on his face, and he excitedly announced to all the members of the Soul Breaker Bow, "That's the ground! Everyone, hurry up, let's go down together!"
"Wuqi!" Balk suddenly glanced at Wuqi.
Wuqi suddenly nodded in understanding, and with a move of his right hand, he immediately threw out the nameless scroll, like a blade, and swept it on the blue light rope that tied the Soul Breaking Bow, and the group was suddenly like a meteorite falling from the sky, under the powerful effect of inertia, like a cannonball, it fell heavily towards the black land that was getting closer and closer to everyone.
After a loud "boom", Wuqi and his party finally managed to land on a new land, which is a huge platform, after several exciting and dangerous swing trips. Before they hit the ground, they could see the general landscape of the black land, which was surrounded by all kinds of flowers and trees, except for the black ground.
From a bird's-eye view from above, it is very beautiful, and it feels like you have arrived in an ancient forest, and there are no magical beasts and dangers. Although everyone cautiously surveyed the surroundings after landing, but in the end, when they found that there were no traps and magical beasts here except for flowers and trees, even Rode, who had always been vigilant, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Wuqi even relaxed and climbed directly to a small tree that was not tall, reclined and took a nap, and said: "It's so comfortable! I haven't been lying down for a while for a long time! This fifth layer is really special, it seems that it is specially for people to rest......
But before he could finish his words, he was suddenly interrupted by Balk's words, only to hear Balk's voice suddenly come in a low voice, "No." This is not the fifth floor. The jungle we are in now is the sixth layer. The large empty area just now should be the real fifth layer, but the fifth layer fell off like the stone that fell off the cliff on the fourth floor. ”
