Chapter 430: Go around from behind
Li Tian and the other three immediately set off. After all, they had already finished eating and had just gotten over the shock. Just like Li Tian had said, no matter how many people were in front of them, they had to get their hands on the Vermilion fruit.
However, after they had just traveled a short distance, the ghost king gave each of them a pill-like thing.
“There’s miasma around here. If you eat this, you’ll be able to avoid being poisoned. ”
As long as no one went to the primeval forest, there would be miasma. Some of the miasma was relatively light and not fatal. A slightly thicker miasma would cause dizziness, and some could even cause death.
How was miasma formed? it was because there were too many corpses of animals and plants. When they rotted, they formed a strange smell. Those gases carried a large number of viruses. Ghost king had studied miasma in the past. The most common miasma contained more than 300 types of bacteria. This kind of miasma was still bearable for human beings. It was conceivable how many bacteria and viruses were in the miasma that could make people dizzy and die.
Hearing the ghost king’s words, they all ate the pills he gave them seriously, and then the four of them set off again.
After advancing for about five hundred meters, the altitude had reached more than six thousand meters. He estimated that there were only two to three hundred meters left, which was within a thousand meters.
After all, it was impossible for humans to climb the mountain in a vertical line. Instead, they had to walk along the hypotenuse and go in circles. Otherwise, Li Tian would have seen how many opponents he had to face during the break.
“We can’t go up this way. This is the main road. There will definitely be people lying in ambush nearby. We are not strong enough. If we go up from here, we might not even wait until tomorrow. We will be beaten and run away.”
Li Tian looked around and immediately made a judgment.
The situation wasn’t clear yet, but Li Tian knew that the four of them might be the weakest group of people this time. 1–1e couldn’t afford to meet them.
Being beaten and running away was already a light punishment. If they were careless or the other party had more people and their strength was too much higher than theirs, all four of them might die there.
“Sure, but I’m worried that we won’t be able to go up the other roads. Look at how steep this mountain is.”
It was almost a 90-degree slope, which could be said to be quite difficult. It would not be easy to open up a new road.
“I’ve thought about it. We’ll use ropes to climb up. The brat is in front. Every time he climbs 50 meters, he will throw down the ropes and secure them. This way, we can slowly climb up.”
This was the only path that looked normal, and the slope wasn’t that steep. However, the other paths were all 90-degree slopes, just like a straight line. It was too difficult to climb up, and with Li Tian’s current condition, he might not even be able to reach the top. A small mistake would cause him to fall.
If they were to climb in a straight line, they would only be about 200 meters away, which meant that they could reach it after climbing the rope four times.
The little Joker’s Qinggong was better, and he was faster, so it was not impossible for him to complete the task.
“Okay, then let’s go to the other side and climb up.”
The four of them immediately left the main road and walked towards the pile of rocks at the side. Yes, at the top, there were almost no trees to be seen. It was just a pile of rocks. Moreover, the peak was like a huge rock pressing down on the mountain. The rock was huge, about the same size as a 300-story building, but much wider.
The four of them spent half an hour and came to the other side. It was a stone wall with some protruding stones on it. When they looked up, they could barely see the top, which showed how high it was.
Even the most professional rock climber wouldn’t be able to climb up from here, so Li Tian was sure that no one would think of this.
“Do you see that? there are some small trees growing on the stone wall. Brat, try to climb over there the first time and tie the rope to the rock. After we climb up, we can stop at that protruding place.”
The rock was so big, but it was not completely smooth. Some of the protruding rocks looked like they were dozens of centimeters long, enough for a few people to stand on.
“Okay, I’ll go immediately.”
Little ghost put on the rope and gave his backpack to Li Tian. After all, he had to travel light.
Little ghost was like a monkey. As long as there was a gap, he would be able to grab it. Then, he jumped up and crossed a distance of about a meter.
The other three had been observing. After all, there was still danger. If the little ghost accidentally fell, they would have time to react and take some measures to remedy it.
The 50-meter distance took little ghost more than half an hour to climb. When he finally let the rope dovvn, Li Tian even tried to pull it down with all his might, afraid that it wouldn’t be tight enough.
“The monk will go first, I’ll take it, and the ghost king will go last.”
Li Tian immediately drew up the order and placed the ghost king at the end. He was worried that the ghost king’s physical strength wouldn’t be enough to support such a high-intensity climb. Once he and seven were on the top, they could pull the rope up directly, and the ghost king would just have to hold on to the rope.
“Alright, I’ll do it.”
The monk took the lead. Since the monk was heavier, he left all his bags on Li Tian. The ghost king was already in a difficult position, so he naturally didn’t carry anything else.
The monk was already very familiar with this kind of thing. As long as there was a rope, it wouldn’t be a big problem for him. The only thing he was worried about was that the rope wasn’t secure enough and might fall off halfway.
However, it was obvious that the little ghost had put in a lot of effort. Even though they were on the rock wall, the hook on the other side of the rope was fixed very well. The monk’s 200-pound weight did not break.
The monk immediately found a place to stay, followed by Li Tian, and then ghost king.
Perhaps the ghost king had preserved his strength well, as he climbed the fifty meters without anyone’s help. Even so, it took the three of them half an hour. It took them an entire hour to cover the fifty meters. It was possible that they would only reach the top at night. After all, it was already afternoon, and it would be dark in a few hours.
He found two spots where he could stand. The monk stood alone, while Li Tian and the ghost king stood together. After all, the monk was quite big. If he accidentally fell down, who would he tell?
“Don’t remove this rope for the time being. Take the other one in the monk’s backpack. ‘
Li Tian had to give them a way out. If anything happened, it would be much safer to have a rope.
Li Tian took out a rope from Seven’s backpack and handed it to little ghost..
