Chapter 966: Looking for the Netherworld in the Center of the Earth (39)
The deep pit was filled with some kind of invisible smoke, smoke that blocked the light. It was this strange smoke that completely covered the brilliance of the torch. Even if the tiger was so close to his torch, he couldn't see any light!
Not good! So bad! As a result, Albert could hardly see the structure of the stone wall clearly. He could only rely on the touch of his hands to feel out the concave and convex surfaces of the stone wall in the cave, and then climb down!
But he had only climbed a hundred feet before he encountered such difficulties! How should he cope with the remaining nine hundred feet?!
Jump. Jump right down.
A voice sounded in Albert's mind.
That voice was not speaking. It was more akin to direct telepathy, telling Albert "what to do" with commands, rather than letting the tiger understand it in the form of a conversation.
The source of that voice was the Holy White Tiger residing in Albert's body.
"Xiaobai? You tell me to jump down directly?" Albert asked suspiciously: "It's very high here. You know, meow? I will fall to my death!"
(Jump down.)
"But---!"
(Just jump down.)
Albert snorted. Indeed, he did not know the actual depth of the bottomless pit. He could only estimate how deep the pit was by the reverberation of the dropped sticks---and this also failed.
Perhaps it's just some kind of magic that makes the pit look like this, making it look deeper than it actually is.
Maybe the pit is not deep in the first place, but Albert and the others are just scaring themselves.
It should be said that if the pit was really a thousand feet deep, Albert would not be able to climb down after all - his physical strength would have bottomed out before it reached the bottom;
On the other hand, if the pit is really not deep, if you don’t jump out now, you will just continue to waste time.
And Tiger believes that his [Xiao Bai] will not lie to him. The Holy White Tiger resides in Albert's body and has formed a symbiotic relationship with the tiger. If Al dies, the Holy White Tiger will also suffer great misfortune.
.
Therefore, the tiger finally chose to trust his partner.
He let go of his hand and jumped into the bottomless and extremely dark pit!
come down!
come down!
Keep falling!
After falling for about three seconds, Albert began to cry secretly in his heart!
But he's still falling!
An object in free fall will only continue to accelerate during the fall, and will eventually become out of control!
As a cat, Albert would have been able to reduce falling damage to a certain extent. As long as he hit the ground within five seconds, theoretically he would not be fatally injured.
But how many seconds have passed so far?! Ten seconds?! Twenty seconds?!
How deep is this pit, and when will it reach the bottom?
Albert is desperate. It should be said that no matter how deep the pit is, everything has nothing to do with him! At his current falling speed, once he reaches the bottom, he will definitely turn into a ball of flesh and die!
The only thing that could save him was the drop hanging on his backpack----------
(Don’t open it!)
The voice of the Holy White Tiger once again ordered Albert to prevent the tiger from opening the parachute.
"Wha, what?! Are you kidding me?!" The tiger was really anxious at this time. If he didn't open the parachute as a buffer, it might be too late!
(Don't open it!) The Holy Spirit White Tiger "Xiaobai" repeatedly emphasized that Albert was not allowed to open the parachute.
Albert ignored the Holy Spirit White Tiger's advice and reached behind him: "You can't stop me! I don't want to die-------Woo?!"
His hand froze before touching the parachute activation mechanism. There was some force that prevented the tiger from moving the muscles of his arms! The power of the Holy White Tiger prevented Albert from moving his body!
"Xiaobai!" Albert was really angry this time, moving his body with brute force, trying to break the restrictions of the Holy Spirit! But as a [human], his power is very limited, how can he defeat the power of [God]
?
Albert's whole body froze, like a puppet. His body was controlled by the Holy Spirit White Tiger and was no longer the tiger's own.
He plunged down like a diver and continued to fall rapidly! If he continued like this, he would definitely hit the bottom of the pit and turn into a puddle of completely crushed flesh and blood!
Albert was desperate. It was only then that he remembered Bedivere's previous advice. He should not have allowed the White Tiger of the Holy Spirit to possess his body. He relied too much on the power of the Holy Spirit and had no idea how powerful these gods were.
It’s terrifying, and I never thought that one day my body would be taken away by the Holy Spirit!
So, is it over like this? Is this the conspiracy of the White Tiger of the Holy Spirit, to murder Albert so that he can take over the body of the dead Albert?
Or maybe not! ----------Albert felt like he was plunging into something.
It was sticky and thick, like a cloud of extremely dense smoke. That thing did not harm the tiger's body, but instead acted as a great buffer, causing the speed of Albert, who was falling rapidly, to continue to decrease.
However, that thing couldn't completely stop the tiger from falling. He still kept passing through the smoke-like object and continued to fall!
Or is this the only way to get through this smoke?
Bang! The tiger landed.
Once the soles of his feet hit the ground, Albert's body was free again - the Holy Spirit White Tiger continued to control Al's body, but returned the control of the body to Albert.
"Xiao Bai!" Once he regained his mobility, the tiger roared angrily: "Come out! Get out!"
"Mi-----" The image of the Holy Spirit White Tiger emerged from Albert's tail, and it was always in the form of a kitten.
As soon as he saw the Holy Spirit White Tiger, Albert immediately yelled: "What the hell did you do to my body just now?! Do you want to do it again? See if I don't drive you out of my body.
Ya sealed forever!?"
"Mi..." the little white cat made an innocent face, as if he was deeply reflecting on the bad things he had done.
"You can't believe the Holy Spirits." "You are playing with fire." The advice of Bedivere and Grand Duke Hall sounded in Albert's mind again.
"Humph! Forget it...!" Tiger ignored these voices of advice and chose to continue to believe in the Holy Spirit White Tiger--at least temporarily.
When he saw that the little white cat was introspecting and looked very naive, he immediately lost his temper and only gave a formal warning in his mouth: "Don't ever do something like that again! My body is mine, don't try to control it."
It! Did you hear meow?!＂
"Meow meow---" The Holy Spirit White Tiger nodded, immediately retracted into Albert's tail and disappeared.
The tiger then breathed a sigh of relief and turned back to observe the surrounding environment. The strange smoke that blocked the light was no longer at the bottom of the pit. Albert's torch worked as usual, illuminating everything around him.
He first looked up at the cloud of smoke that formed the ceiling. It was very thick and should be some kind of special magic. If one climbed down according to the ordinary method, the person would be blocked by the smoke and unable to penetrate it and fall into the pit.
the bottom of.
The method that the Holy Spirit White Tiger told Albert is the most correct. Jump directly from a high place and use the gravity acceleration when falling to break away the smoke. Only then can a person pass through the smoke smoothly and reach the bottom of the pit.
At least on this point, Xiaobai did not lie to Al. Of course, in retrospect, Tiger still felt very unhappy about having his body taken over just now.
He continued to look around and observe the situation inside the pit.
The roads in front of us extend in all directions, and it is a huge underground maze that is more complicated and difficult to navigate than the volcanic underground palace. This depth is simply like being in the center of the earth.
But Albert didn't care how complicated this earth-centered maze was. No matter how complicated it was, as long as there was the power of the Holy White Tiger, it would be easy to find [that thing] in this maze.
And Albert is the first person to reach this earth-centered maze. He has a long distance from other candidates. Now he can relax and find a way to join his teammates first, and then face this place.
Explore the maze of the heart.
Having said that, how should we notify the two teammates on the pit? Do we have to crawl back along the cave?
The tiger looked at the safety rope around his waist. It was unbelievable! The rope should only be three hundred feet long. According to the trend of his fall just now, the rope should have ended long ago? Isn't the depth of the pit less than three hundred feet?
The tiger didn't think much about it, but grabbed the rope and pulled it twice.
"Huh?!" Elaine was waiting above the pit. He grabbed the other end of the rope and felt the vibration from the rope.
"What's wrong?" Chanel asked instead.
"Two, two times." Elaine replied: "Al said two times is safe. We can go down."
"Wait a minute, give me the rope." The elf girl didn't quite believe in the White Bear Man's feelings. After all, Elaine was clumsy and stupid, and could easily get important things wrong. Instead of trusting the White Bear Man's judgment, it was better to rely on the White Bear Man's judgment.
She makes her own judgment.
She took the rope from Elaine the White Bear Man and held it tightly, trying to feel the vibration coming from the other end of the rope.
Pull, pull. Two consecutive pulls were very clear. This was a signal for them to get down.
Pull, pull, pull, pull. Huh? What's going on with this signal? It's neither two, nor three, but one and three in a rhythm. It's so strange. What on earth is Albert thinking?
Pull, pull, pull. The signals became more and more complicated, and Chanel was confused: "What on earth is that stupid tiger thinking..."
Pull, pull, pull, pull.
"It's hard, does he have something to say?" Elaine came over and asked.
"Maybe. But I can't understand." The elf girl frowned.
"Those idiots..." Albert kept asking depressedly at the bottom of the pit, "Why don't you understand yet? Just jump down!"
But he also knew very well that most people would not risk their lives jumping into a deep pit without any warning from anyone. And with the barrier of the smoke, even if the tiger screamed at the top of his throat, the people above him would not be able to hear it. This is quite annoying.
I have no choice but to climb up and notify Chanel and the others?
