Chapter 41 The bottomless crack
"Boom!" A loud noise suddenly came from the ears of the smiling two people, and then their bodies shook a few times. Wuqi and Croyd were stunned, and subconsciously lowered their heads to look at the ground, and couldn't help but breathe a breath of cold air. The top of the mountain where they were sitting was shaking slightly, as if an earthquake suddenly occurred, which scared the two children, who were only 7 or 8 years old, and their faces were as if they were dirt.
"Old De, what's going on? Why does the ground suddenly shake?" Wuqi looked at Croyd in horror. Croyd shook his head blankly, and a solemn expression appeared on his face. "I don't know. Maybe it's an earthquake, let's go down the mountain quickly."
As soon as they finished speaking, Wuqi had no time to ask what the earthquake was, Croyd pulled out of the tent, "Bang!" At the same time as they ran out of the tent, the tent, which was 3 meters high and about 5 meters in diameter, suddenly collapsed as if it had fallen apart. Before Wuqi and Croyd had time to come back from the sudden change in front of them, they fell to the ground by the slight shaking of the mountain.
Even though Wuqi didn't know whether this phenomenon was an earthquake in Croyd's mouth, he clearly felt that the situation was not good, because on a piece of ground not far in front of him, he found a crack more than one foot long. This was the top of a mountain. Even if it was just a hill more than 300 meters high, Wuqi could still feel how dangerous the situation was at this time. However, in order to confirm his judgment, he was still half curious and did not dare to stand up. Instead, he climbed to the position where the crack appeared in all fours in such a steady posture, put his head on the ground, and looked deep into the black crack.
"Well? What are you doing there? Come here quickly, it's shaking violently than here, or is it safer here." Croyd inexplicably crawled towards the more violently shaking position, and said in confusion.
Wuqi did not answer Croyd, but slowly took out a light bulb the size of a little finger from the silver bracelet, threw it into the crack on the top of the mountain, and then leaned his head and stuck his eyes on the crack and observed it carefully towards the depths of the crack.
As soon as the light bulb as small as a little finger entered the crack, it was free fall due to the effect of gravity. Every time it fell down, Wuqi could see the deeper scene inside the crack more clearly. Apart from the dense and hard rocks and yellowed soil, there was nothing left. At first, the light like a firefly was still a fist-sized light in Wuqi's eyes because it was close to Wuqi's sight. But when it fell to a deeper and deeper position, the light was so small that it was almost invisible. It was like a firefly flying in the darkness, so small that it was only the size of a rice grain. Finally, when the light as small as a rice grain was completely swallowed by the endless darkness, Wuqi was shocked by the scene he saw, and his heart beat faster. The depth was more than 100 meters as he had predicted just now.
"Boom!" Just as Wuqi was just shocked by the terrifying crack in depth, the hill that had just been stable began to shake in a distant roar. The intensity was even greater than before. Wuqi, who was lying on the ground, was suddenly frightened by the sudden vibration. He really couldn't figure out what caused this unknown vibration.
Compared to Wuqi, Croyd was not much better at this time. Although his experience in fighting monsters was much richer than Wuqi, how could a child who was only 8 years old suddenly faced this terrifying phenomenon like a natural disaster? Fortunately, the earthquake did not last for too long and then subsided for no reason. Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, Wuqi shouted: "Lao De, are you any light bulbs that are so bright that they can see light more than 100 meters away?"
"Light bulb? What do you want to do?" Croyd asked in confusion.
"You'll know when you come here and take a look."
"Yeah?" With curiosity, Croyd dared not stand up. He also crawled towards the other party with his limbs on all sides in confusion.
As soon as he arrived in front of him, Wuqi stretched out a finger, pointed at himself and pointed at a crack that was one foot long in front of him. Croyd put his face close to the ground in confusion and glanced deeper into the crack. After a moment, he slowly raised his head, looked at Wuqi with even more confusion, and asked, "Isn't this just a bit deep crack? What's so good about it?"
"I just threw a small light bulb in. I arrived at a place almost 100 meters deep, and it was not the end yet." Wuqi said this plainly, but it sounded like a lightning strike in Croyd's ears. This seemingly ordinary but a little deep crack was so deep? He grinned in disbelief and said, "Are you kidding?"
"No. There are only lighting equipment such as light bulbs in my bracelet. You have something brighter, so you can try it. I just want to see how deep the crack is." Wuqi's words were also Croyd's voice. After hearing this, Croyd stopped talking nonsense and reached out to take out a half-foot-long cylinder from his pure gold bracelet. Seeing Wuqi throwing a questioning gaze at him, he explained while pointing the end of the cylinder towards the crack: "This is a laser. It can detect a distance of more than 200 meters. Just press this switch." As he said that, he signaled Wuqi to look at a red button on the side of the cylinder, gently pressed it, and immediately shot a red light as thick as a little finger from it, illuminating the inside of the black crack.
"So amazing! This laser is much stronger than the light bulb I threw down."
"Of course." Hearing Wuqi's admiration, Croyd subconsciously patted his chest, showing a proud look, but before he could enjoy this rare and wonderful moment, he was stunned by Wuqi's next words.
"No way...the laser didn't even hit the bottom."
"You didn't lie to me, aren't you?" Croyd, who was a little depressed by the other party's words, looked at Wuqi in confusion, and then subconsciously looked into the depths of the crack. After seeing it, his heart suddenly sank. He saw that the strong red light had completely penetrated into the darkness at about 200 meters. The position before the darkness was obviously not the bottom of the crack. Could it be that the crack was so deep that it had penetrated the entire hill?
This extremely terrifying thought suddenly arose in Croyd's mind. If his vision is correct, then the hill will not be completely divided into two halves by the increasingly larger crack. The mountain may even collapse. Thinking of himself and Wuqi continuing to stay here, it is very likely that it will become a burial object for the collapse of the mountain. He couldn't help but sweat a lot.
But he was about to pull Wuqi up and run away, but he saw Wuqi staring at a direction in the distance. Croyd subconsciously looked around and almost made his heart jump out, not because of fear, but just the opposite surprise, the surprise of sudden enlightenment and the excitement that would come from the heart when seeing things that yearn for.
In the distance, there were about 5 or 6 miles away in the forest, that is, in the forest where Wuqi and Croyd had fought with the black bear, two huge figures, one black and one white, were dodging and moving quickly up and down, left and right. The two huge figures were moving in the forest from a distance, as if they were not in the forest, but moving in a slightly dense grass. The tallest towering tree in the forest was only at their waists. The huge black bear head and the snow-white wolf head with fangs were recognized by Croyd and Wuqi at first glance, but what really shocked them was not the super huge figure of these two giant monsters, but a small figure fighting with them.
Although the distance is far away, Wuqi and Croyd's vision is really extraordinary. They can be seen clearly between 5 and 6 miles apart. Croyd has received extremely strict training and has almost reached the level of being able to participate in professional selection competitions, so he has this super vision. As for Wuqi, it is entirely because it inherits Qingchengzi's black hole-like eyes.
At this time, in the forest 5 or 6 miles east of the small mountain, while the figures of the two huge monsters, one black and one white, were moving quickly, a red light ball that was only one tenth of their size appeared around them at a high speed faster than these two monsters. The roars in the mouths of the two monsters kept ringing. Every time the red light passed by them, a huge roar would immediately sound. Then, the next moment, the two monsters would appear murderously on the other side of the forest, and carry out the next round of attack on the red light that suddenly appeared there.
But what is strange is that the red light only flashed and moved in the siege of two monsters, but never launched an attack, which made Wuqi and Croyd wonder in their hearts. However, they didn't understand why, and the figure that faintly appeared in the red light made the two of them secretly shocked. It was a middle-aged man wearing a bright red gown and holding a bright red sword. His back was strong and his aura was domineering. Such a familiar figure was not a master-level powerhouse. Who else could Sakai, who was called a master of swordsmanship?
"It turned out to be Teacher Sakai! He is so powerful! He can fight with two level 9 monsters." Croyd couldn't help but exclaim, but the next moment he couldn't be happy immediately, because he saw the huge black bear with his own eyes that didn't slap Sakai's figure with his own eyes, but transmitted a strong aura fluctuation brought out to him so far away from them. The powerful airflow like a typhoon hit violently and made a loud roar on the hill, which had already appeared even more shaky. Croyd and Wuqi only felt that their bodies were about to be blown away by the sudden strong wind. If they hadn't been lying obediently on the ground at this time, they would have been blown down from the cliff by the wind and ended up in pieces.
When the two of them saw that the bottomless crack was suddenly stretched three or four times longer, Wuqi and Croyd suddenly understood why the hill had a sudden earthquake for no reason. After looking at each other, the two turned their bodies in a tacit understanding and climbed quickly towards the path down the mountain.
