Act 54: The Road to Azure, the Trial of the Mountains III
The glacier moved at an alarming speed. Brando's first reaction was to run to both sides of the valley, but his body had already reached its limit. Every time he took a step, he felt severe pain as if his whole body was falling apart, and his speed was not as fast as usual.
One-tenth of his unyielding talent only allowed him to survive, far too late to escape from the avalanche area that was dozens of miles wide.
The ground roared and trembled under his feet, making it even more difficult for him to stand firmly. Soon the rolling roar came behind him. Brando glanced back and saw that the ice wall that looked like a snow line in the distance turned out to be unexpectedly close to him.
Forming a glacier waterfall nearly 100 meters high.
This waterfall swallows everything in its path, and is mixed with countless sharp rocks. The fate of a person being sucked in is probably not much better than being sucked into a meat grinder. But Brando turned around again,
Only then did he realize that he was at least several miles away from the nearest high ground on both sides of the valley, and his heart suddenly sank.
"Are you going to die here?"
He did not expect that he would not die in the hands of Madara's skeleton, nor in the hands of Eruin's rebels, nor in the hands of the Silver Queen, but that he would die in a trial.
This is the road that person once walked, the trial of Chongshan.
The azure knight challenged the mountains, and the biting cold wind cut his face, but he was determined and unyielding, as if nothing could stop him. He finally conquered everything and gained the recognition of the mountains.
That is a story in a myth, a hero in a legend.
Brando couldn't help but shook his head feebly. He was still too far away from the legend. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but it was because the difference in strength was too great.
He took a few heavy breaths.
He could almost feel the bone-chilling chill of the ice chips hitting his body behind his back. Although it was strange, logically speaking, he should not be able to feel the concept of temperature in his undead state. This thought flashed through his mind.
, then he grabbed his cloak with his backhand. He ripped it off with a strong tug and threw it away.
Throwing away his cloak, Brando accelerated a few steps with all his strength, and suddenly jumped forward. A dark rock protruded from the snow in front of him. He rolled and climbed in the snow and firmly grasped the rock.
Brando still didn't intend to give up until the last moment.
Although there is little hope
The next moment he felt a heavy blow on his back.
He had a body of silver, but the huge force still squeezed him so hard that it was difficult to breathe. He let out a muffled groan. His vision went dark and he almost fainted.
But fortunately, his unyielding talent was powerful enough, allowing him to maintain a trace of clarity in such situations.
Then came the overwhelming ice and snow foam that came crashing down on him. Brando could only close his eyes tightly, as if he was in a stormy sea, and hold on to the rocks with his hands, never letting the moving glacier take him away.
.Because he understood that once he let go, there would be no chance of survival.
The duration of the unyielding talent is still several times longer than its original state after several enhancements. But it is still not too long. If you are buried under hundreds of meters of ice, it is absolutely impossible for the duration to end.
Self-rescue was successful before.
He gritted his teeth and still let the violent force pass by him without wavering at all. Because he was so focused, he didn't even notice that his fingers were inserted into the rock.
The loose front part of the icefall quickly washed away, and the dense second half composed of rocks and broken glaciers followed. After Brando spent the initial relaxing period, he immediately encountered another
Got into new trouble.
The rocks mixed in the broken ice didn't matter whether he was the King of the Earth or not, let alone he wasn't. Several rock formations as big as a tabletop suddenly hit his back. If such an attack was normal for the silver body,
It seemed like he was scratching an itch. But here, Brando heard a series of crisp sounds from behind him, and then a sharp pain swept over him.
He immediately understood that it was the sound of broken ribs, but before he could let out a scream, the huge force pressed him to the rock like an ant. Brando had no room for resistance, and the air quickly
All of it was squeezed out of his lungs. If he didn't need to breathe due to his indomitable talent, this one blow would be enough to kill half of his life.
But it was this blow that gave him hope of survival. Brando soon realized that the most difficult moment had passed, and physical damage was not enough to invalidate the unyielding talent. Even if he suffered more injuries, he would not be able to survive until this moment.
Even after the wave glacier passes, he can use the Angel Heart Vase to recover as before.
As mentioned before, although this trial replaced his equipment and status, the backpack and props did not change. The Thunder God's Belt, the Commendation Horn and even the Thunder God's Belt he got from the Tilmose people were even given by Miss Tata.
His suspended celestial sphere is considered equipment, but the Angel Heart Vase is a genuine and usable prop, and it currently rests safely in his pocket.
In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the Angel Heart Vase couldn't restore his physical strength, his previous trek wouldn't have been so hard at all.
Although he did not feel the speed of the glacier slowing down, the unyielding duration was still very long. The avalanche was too fast and it would pass by here soon.
But what Brando couldn't have imagined was that just when he thought he had escaped, the rock he was leaning against suddenly swayed slightly, and then tilted in the direction of the glacier.
Brando's heart thumped, and he suddenly hit the bottom. He had never expected that the rock he was relying on would be the first to fail.
If it is carried away by the glacier, all bets are off.
Of course, he couldn't allow such a thing to happen, and immediately tried his best to mobilize the power of his laws. He understood that only the laws of space could save him at this time, but what made him despair was that just like before, the elements of space and time seemed to
As if frozen by the severe cold of this world, there was no response to his call at all.
After half a year of trekking in this extreme world, he had already exhausted his last bit of physical strength and elemental power.
But Brando still has a way.
"Abandon professional level."
"Give up the elementalist career level!"
He ordered categorically. On his system panel, the elementalist levels disappeared quickly, almost instantly, disappearing from his career list. He gave up professional levels to gain experience, and then converted the experience into order points. Because of this
This transformation is irreversible, so almost no one in the game will do it.
But Brando had no choice.
Even if he understands that the professional level he converted will still be counted on him in the end, and his part-time penalty will also be calculated, it will never be canceled or reduced in any way.
But now he had to do this.
The level of the elementalist was burned out, but the order points he obtained were still not enough for him to mobilize the laws of space. Brando was cruel and cut five more levels from the Templar Knight, finally being promoted to the fifty-level Templar Knight profession.
Suddenly he fell back to level 45.
But this time, he finally got enough power, and the silver thread of law once again lit up around his body. It was a pity that he couldn't obtain the power of order from this world, otherwise he would have perfected his body and wouldn't need to use himself at all.
The power of the elements.
While Brando cursed this hellish trial in his heart, he mobilized his power of law to stabilize the rock. His power of space recovered quickly with the order point, and soon extended to the rock.
roots.
At this moment, Brando thought he had almost seen hope.
But unfortunately, God failed to fulfill his wish. At the last moment when he spread the laws of space all over the rocks, the glacier hit him hard from behind with a huge rock wrapped around him.
Before Brando had time to react, his vision went dark, and the string of laws that had finally been stabilized suddenly collapsed. "No!" He screamed, and felt the whole world spinning, and the rock in his hand was loosened.
Then he rolled forward with him.
Brando's last thought was when he saw the mountain-sized rock behind him crushing towards him.
…
In the hills of Anzeruta, Haruze was staring dumbfoundedly at the necklace floating from Ms. Medusa's chest. It was a beautiful necklace, made of star-like metal and sparkling.
, like a fleeting meteor in the night sky.
If he remembered correctly, that substance should be mithril, a rare and expensive metal that Master Tamar and his teacher taught him.
But what is truly eye-catching about this necklace is not its chain made of mithril, but the pendant. The pendant emitting black light is causing the entire necklace to float into the air.
"Miss Lesmeka, what is this?" Haruze couldn't help but ask, "What were you talking about just now?"
But no one answered his question.
Lesmeka and Kaya both stared at the pendant in mid-air with serious expressions. The latter also looked at the former, while the former looked struggling. She finally stretched out her hand to grab the pendant.
But unexpectedly, Kaya grabbed Lesmeka's hand.
The dark elf girl shook her head firmly at her.
"The kingdom is overthrown, the earth is suffering, and the creatures are suffering in this fire, and there will be no light forever," she said to Lesmeka in underground language.
"No," Lesmeka shook her head: "This is our most precious treasure. That prophecy can't be true. We can't believe in these illusory things. Kaya, you understand its value. You can only give it to
Only those who truly understand its value can get what we want. Don’t you want to go back?”
But Kaya was unmoved. She stared into Lesmeka's eyes and said: "I am the priest of Drokasha. I know that the prophecy must be true. Look, Lesmeka, the glory of the ancient kings."
It has penetrated the clouds and shines on the earth. A voice is calling for the king, but the world turns a blind eye to it."
