Chapter 61: The Funeral Song of Blood and Fire (4)
Jones only felt a pain in his throat, a clear sound of bones being crushed came, he went black in front of his eyes, his body shook once, and then there was no feeling anymore.
Tang Jie's sudden and swift strike was as fast as lightning, not only did Jones not react in time but his Adam's apple was shattered. Even Niya William and the others beside him were stunned, watching as Jones swayed once before falling into the bottomless pit behind him, they didn't come back to their senses!
Tang Jie, due to the sudden outburst just now, his hands left the cliff edge that was supporting his body. After he barely killed Jones, his body began to lose balance and almost fell into the bottomless pit with Jones!
A wave of weightlessness and dizziness came over him, and Tang Jie knew whether he lived or died in that brief instant!
He swiftly snatched the sharp knife from Jones' hand, then with his last ounce of strength, he heavily thrust it into the cliff wall!
With a "ding" sound, the dagger fell off the cliff and the rock couldn't withstand Tang Jie's falling momentum. The dagger pulled downwards for a distance, splashing out a blinding flash of light before finally coming to a stop.
Tang Jie's body hung on the rock wall, gasping violently, he now didn't even have the strength to move a finger.
Niya and the others saw Tangie fall, and they were shocked to cry out loudly. Fortunately, they saw that Tangie quickly regained his balance and hung onto the cliff wall, and for a while there was no danger to his life, which made them slightly relieved.
From Tangie bursting forth and killing Jones in an instant, to his narrow escape from death, all this happened in the twinkling of an eye.
Witnessing all of this, Bar involuntarily took two steps back in shock!
He didn't even dare to approach the cliff to see if Tang Jie was dead or not!
He's too scary...
This guy was on his last breath, like a dying man waiting to be slaughtered, but in the blink of an eye he burst out like a tiger, ferocious as a lion, and brutally killed Jones!
All that echoed in Ba Er's mind was the sound of Jones' hyoid bone being crushed by Tangie, and he subconsciously reached out to touch his own neck, breaking out in a cold sweat!
"It's a good thing I kept an extra eye out and let Jones take the fall! If that had been me just now, I'd be dead...!" Balkhan was as pale as milk, staring at the spot where Tangie had last supported his body as if he were looking at a ghost.
But after a while, Bar discovered that Nia, William and Bill were all leaning their heads to one side, looking at a place with an extremely anxious expression. His heart tightened: Tong Jie, this indestructible guy, was he climbing up?
No way, absolutely can't let him climb up!
The treasure of Atos is mine alone, and you absolutely cannot destroy my dreams!!
Barth himself didn't know that his subconscious mind was extremely afraid of Tangie, and at this time, his longing for the treasure of Atos had also reached its peak.
Fear and greed, these two completely different desires mixed together, turned him into a raging beast.
"The treasure of Altos is mine, no one else can take it away!" Bar's eyes were bloodshot red, he drew out the long knife from his waist and charged towards William and the others with a fierce killing intent, he wanted to settle these former companions first!
"Don't think about stopping me! You can't, Wells can't, and Tong Jie definitely can't. I am the owner of Atos' treasure!!" Baru grinned savagely, his long knife raised high in his hand!
Just as his long sword was about to fall, a cold and hoarse voice suddenly sounded: "Father, are you calling my name?"
Although the voice was hoarse, it was all too familiar to Bar. He shuddered, turning his head in disbelief, his whole body trembling as he stared at a figure with a twisted body and fingers like hooks slowly climbing up the cliff!
This is Wells!
After falling into the bottomless pit, Wells desperately struggled and grabbed onto anything he could, just as he was continuously falling, he suddenly grabbed a protruding boulder.
If it were someone else who fell from a high place, this kind of powerful gravitational acceleration would be far beyond the strength of one's wrist.
But at this time, Wales was on the verge of death, but Barba covered his body, accumulating a powerful force inside, and his physical strength had increased by an unknown number of times. These two points were enough to make him re-support himself on this rock face, and then slowly climb up again!
As Wales climbed up, he had completely lost his mind, his body was already rotten and the Baraba that were originally parasitic on him were constantly falling off. What supported him was his strong and resentful desire for revenge. This terrible idea dominated the remaining Baraba on his body, dominated his physical body, and let him climb up the cliff again.
He wants to kill Tang Jie with his own hands, so he can close his eyes in peace!
Just as he was about to climb up the cliff, he vaguely heard a familiar voice and a familiar name.
That was his foster father who raised him, taught him combat skills, sailing skills, and everything else, Bal!
For Wales, he had always thought that Tong Jie was the person he hated and resented the most, it was this person who took away everything that should have belonged to him.
It wasn't until Wales lost his sanity and was left with only his instincts and subconscious that he discovered the person he hated most in the depths of his mind was actually his father, Bal.
He hates Tang Jei, but he hates Ba Er even more!
It was Bal who abandoned him, it was Bal who molded him with his own hands and destroyed him with his own hands!
At that moment, Wells' body was covered in a layer of constantly squirming white goo, with only his face exposed and his eyes already shattered by Tangie's powerful aura.
He glared with a pair of black and empty eye sockets, smelling the familiar smell that drove him crazy, inching closer to Bal step by step!
Bar was stunned, he watched as Wells lurched towards him, his body twisted and contorted with each step, making a "sizzling" sound with every footfall, leaving behind a bloody footprint, like a malevolent totem of doom.
Ba Er's whole body was trembling, he suddenly let out a loud roar, mustering all his courage, and with great force swung the long knife in his hand towards Wills!
But what makes Baruba so terrifying is that its coverage can defend against all physical and magical attacks in this world.
The blade was like seeing a pile of extremely elastic cotton, and the knife edge bounced up instantly!
"Die, die! Go to death!!" Bar yelled crazily, desperately waving his long knife, but his knife was like scratching an itch for Wells, causing him no harm at all.
Wells stepped forward step by step, and Ball retreated step by step.
Suddenly, Bar felt the ground beneath him give way, and when he turned around, all he saw was a seemingly bottomless abyss behind him, like an open mouth of a demon waiting to swallow him whole!
"Baron's whole body shook, he didn't dare to retreat again. He suddenly turned his head and loudly said to Wells: "Wells, my child, listen to me! I didn't intentionally abandon you, it was all your uncle Jones' idea, listen to me, it was all his idea!!"
Where could Wells have heard this voice at this time?
He slowly closed in step by step, his hands and feet wrapping around Balrog's body like vines. He slowly opened his mouth, revealing two rows of bloody and cold teeth.
"Barr was desperately screaming and struggling, shouting loudly: "Wells, I'll give you half of the treasure, how about it? Or 70%? Fine, fine, take it all, I don't want anything, just don't kill me!!"
The mournful and piercing sound of Ba Er echoed in the huge stone cave, transmitted to the top of the cave, and then shook back into the depths, as if it had been sent far away into hell.
But suddenly, Bar's pitiful begging cries stopped abruptly!
Wells' teeth slowly sank into his throat, tearing through his trachea and biting off his arteries!
Just as Wales' teeth sank into Ball's throat, Wales also swallowed his last breath.
Ba Er's whole body shook, he no longer struggled, no longer begged for mercy, no longer howled, he let out a long breath, as if to exhale all the air in his body.
His throat gurgled with fresh blood, his massive body swayed slightly, and his eyes stared straight into Wells' dark eye sockets, as if reading out Wells' deep resentment: "Father, let's go to hell together..."
Ba Er opened his mouth, wanting to laugh, but he found that he could no longer make a sound. He was like a giant tree slowly falling over, his body tilting bit by bit, and then with Wells, plunged into the abyss of ten thousand feet.
Tang Jie's body was pressed against the rock face, and he could hear everything that happened above him clearly. Just as he felt a huge object falling from the top of his head, his body subconsciously dodged.
Barr had Wells draped over him, plummeting down from his side like a meteor.
Tang Jie saw a pair of familiar eyes in this dark abyss, with a complex gaze flashing before his eyes.
This is Ball.
This gaze was extremely familiar to Tang Zhen. Every time Professor Bai taught Tang Zhen navigation skills and combat techniques, whenever he saw Tang Zhen grasp and comprehend at an astonishing speed, raising one and deducing three, he would reveal this gaze.
It's a gaze that combines admiration, pleasure, jealousy and awe, and it's also the way an elder looks at a younger generation.
At this moment, Tang Jie and Ba Er locked eyes, time seemed to have stopped.
Tang Jie climbed up the cliff with unyielding efforts, his determination, persistence, bravery and wisdom ultimately made him laugh to the end, while Ba Er, who had been cunning all his life, eventually fell into the abyss of greed and desire.
The two of them, one above and one below, were like two suns. The old sun had set, and the new sun had just risen.
Barr saw this forever strong and unyielding man in the moment he fell, and suddenly revealed a hint of a smile.
Kid, I've lost the bet, I've lost everything, my era is over.
The era belongs to you, has begun.
