At this moment, number one felt that it was difficult to explain in a few words, and he was deeply afraid that number seven would beat him to it, and he would be left with nothing.
In a moment of desperation, he gritted his teeth and muttered,”
“As solid as a rock, solid!”
As soon as the nine-word secret order was issued, his body flashed with golden light. Number one also jumped down like number seven, obviously prepared to fight with his tyrannical body.
When he fell, he hit the cliff wall and made a few muffled sounds, leaving number three with an uncertain expression on his face. He clenched his fingers so hard that they made cracking sounds.
Mr. Zhou was still screaming at the foot of the mountain. Zhou xueli, who was falling down quickly without any regard for her own safety, felt as if her heart was being cut by a knife when she saw Mr. Zhou’s broken wrist.
“Song Qing Xiao … Song qingxiao!”
Mr. Zhou’s box was nowhere to be seen. His injury was obviously not caused by an accident. Coupled with the gunshot just now, Zhou xueli did not need to ask to deduce what had happened here.
Her shrieking voice was filled with hatred and pain. Number seven and number one, who were still climbing down, heard her and confirmed their previous speculations.
While Zhou xueli was shouting song Qing’s name, song Qing had already slid down dozens of meters, widening the distance between her and the others.
Even with the help of the dagger, this method was too risky. In addition, she was holding the box with one hand, so she quickly lost her balance and fell to the ground.
Along the way, she crushed several trees on the cliff, slowing down her falling speed.
The feeling of weightlessness wasn’t good, but it was a pity that she was in mid-air, and there was nothing worth holding onto.
Song qingxiao felt her body temperature drop rapidly. At this point, she knew that panicking was useless. She could only try her best to hold on to the dagger and the box in her arms while releasing her will.
Fortunately, this didn’t last long. In about one or two seconds, she got used to this feeling and she had already fallen to the bottom of the cliff.
After releasing her mental power, her five senses were enhanced. In addition to the ‘whooshing’ sound of the wind in her ears, she also heard the sound of leaves rustling when the wind blew through the forest.
Her body landed on the top of the treetop, and amidst the endless cracking sounds of the branches breaking, she quickly chanted the ‘Lin’ word.”Draw the ground as a prison, trap!”
She quickly mobilized her mental power to barely surround her. Then, she hugged the box and fell to the ground with a loud bang.
The ‘Lin’ word that was wrapped around her was broken apart from the fall. Her internal organs seemed to have shifted under the impact of this huge force.
Song qingxiao heard the sound of her ribs breaking under the impact. She felt like her stomach was stuck in her throat. She felt dizzy and wanted to vomit. Her heart was beating so fast that it felt like it was going to burst her chest.
Song Qing took a few seconds to recover from the pain before he seemed to regain his consciousness. He forced himself to support his upper body with his arms despite the discomfort.
Such a simple action caused a dull pain in her chest. She endured the pain and sat up. When she fell, she had created a pothole on the ground.
Fortunately, the tree branches had slowed down her speed, and the ‘Lin’ spell had reduced the impact of her fall, so she wasn’t seriously injured.
Song qingxiao looked around. It was a sparse forest, and the ground was full of leg-length weeds.
The surroundings were quiet. Wolf one and the others who had fallen earlier were nowhere to be found. Falling from such a height, even if Wolf one and the others were well-trained, they would probably be in danger.
Time was of the essence, and the other three ability users could arrive at any time. She endured the feeling of her chest turning upside down and climbed under a tree to sit against the trunk.
The backpack she was carrying had been scratched somewhere during the fall, but she had been holding the box she had taken from Mr. Zhou tightly.
She gasped for breath, swallowed her saliva, and looked at the box.
The box was covered in Mr. Zhou’s blood, which had dried up and turned dark red. The other end of the box was chained to one of Mr. Zhou’s broken hands.
Time was of the essence earlier. After she cut off one of Mr. Zhou’s wrists and took the box away, she didn’t have time to throw the broken wrist away and jumped off the cliff with it.
After song qingxiao recovered, she pulled the broken wrist out of the lock without any expression and threw it aside. At the same time, she picked up the dagger and pressed the tip of the dagger against the gap of the box.
Just as she was about to make her move, song qingxiao suddenly remembered something that Mr. Zhou had said.
He had once said that this box was made of a special item, and without a key, it could not be opened.
Even if someone forcefully opened the box, there was a hidden mechanism in the box. If the unlocking method was wrong, the box containing the evolutionary drug was very likely to turn into a powerful bomb, blowing the person who opened the box into pieces.
Although this Zhou guy was sinister and vicious, and his words were not reliable, only five out of ten sentences were true and five out of ten were false. The explosives might not even be true.
However, song qingxiao hesitated.
She was a cautious person and always thought twice before taking action, especially when it came to life and death.
It was better to be safe than sorry.
Mr. Zhou’s other words might not be credible, but what if he was telling the truth about the box?
When song Qing thought of this, he immediately gave up the idea of forcefully opening the lock.
She took a few deep breaths to calm her disordered breathing before she began to carefully examine the box’s appearance.
The suitcase was small, much smaller than an ordinary suitcase. He didn’t know what it was made of, but it felt special.
It had experienced a lot of things since Mr. Zhou brought it down from the ship, but there was no other wear and tear on the box except for Mr. Zhou’s blood.
This added to Mr. Zhou’s claim that the box was made of special materials, and song qingxiao didn’t dare to act rashly.
The box was tightly sealed, and the four corners were reinforced with special metal materials.
There was a small keyhole at the handle of the box, and the numbers on the encryption button had long been messed up.
Whether it was a password or a key, song qingxiao did not have any.
She furrowed her brows. Did she get the box for nothing?
As soon as this thought appeared in her mind, song qingxiao immediately rejected it!
First of all, based on Mr. Zhou’s character, it was impossible for him to keep the key to open the box.
Otherwise, he would not have revealed this secret to everyone. He should have known that on this ‘evil demon Island’, human lives were like grass. Wolf one and the others might not be reliable. The participants were of unknown origin, and it was very likely that they would want to snatch the medicine in his box..
