Chapter 41 On the Road

It was already three days later when Lu Lie was woken up.

It seemed as if under the Kun Lei Beast, countless noisy voices came from all around, and the sounds were all suppressed to the extreme, but they contained many complex emotions such as anger, surprise, fear, and despair. Even Kun Lei Beast, this huge giant beast, was trembling slightly, not knowing what they were afraid or excited.

Lu Lie opened his eyes in a daze. He saw Li Yuan sitting cross-legged on the ground, leaving only a lonely and thin back. Lu Lie moved his limbs that were sleeping slightly, and the sound made alarmed Li Yuan in front of him. He turned around, looked at Lu Lie, put his finger on his lips, and made a silence posture.

Lu Lie didn't know what was happening outside, he just looked at Li Yuan with curious eyes, as if asking: What happened?

Li Yuan lowered his voice and said softly: "When entering the depths of Huangquan Kingdom, the gods encountered a terrible enemy. Now, they are fighting under the Kunthird Beast."

Lu Lie was stunned: "What kind of enemy is that? We need help."

He was curious about what happened outside the Kunthluo Beast. He could not see the scene below, but from his perspective, he could only hear the voices of those gods, but could not hear any sounds made by the enemies fighting against them.

"No, I don't recommend you go down and help. I don't even recommend that you see a scene on the battlefield, which may harm your body and mind." Li Yuan said, "Just sit here and wait quietly. The gods can handle these things well. All we can do is wait."

Gradually, the sound of golden swords and iron horses outside the giant beast slowly faded away.

The shouts of countless gods also stopped, as if all the enemies fighting them had been eliminated.

Lu Lie, who was sitting on the back of the Kunthird Beast, felt that the Kunthird Beast stood up from the ground and moved forward again.

Gradually, Lu Lie fell into a deep sleep again.

From beginning to end, he did not poke his head out to take a look at the outside world. He didn't know what the monsters fighting against the gods were.

...

He slept in peace and silence for three days. Lu Lie was so tired, so tired that he dreamed of countless old friends in his dreams, Su Wen, Yang Wei, the man-eating owl, the rose tiger, the little dream, the three heads, and the places he had been to along the way, the mysterious city, the vanishing walkway, the country on the tree, the Yunxu port, the bronze altar, and the top of the giant tree.

Life is like a long climb, and no one can be freed. And at the end of the climb, the only thing that is rewarded to the tree climber is death.

The only thing worth celebrating is that Lu Lie's current climb is almost at his end.

Lu Lie was woken up from his sleep again, and this time it was not the sound from outside, but a faint stench. The smell was like eggs and pork that had been put on for ten days on the cool day, and it was like the smell of countless fly spawning places. It was not particularly frightening, but it was definitely not good. Lu Lie dreamed that he was climbing alone on a giant tree, and every time he almost climbed to the top of the tree close to him. Countless covered flies passed by his head in black, and countless unknown filthy objects fell beside him. He smelled the smell that seemed real and illusory, felt fear in his heart, let go of his hands tightly grasped on the tree wall, and then fell off the cliff, watching his destination disappear in front of him.

He tasted such falls and fears in the cycle of reincarnation again and again. As he became more and more likely, Lu Lie also began to doubt. He gradually realized that he was dreaming, and then he woke up from the dream.

The first person Lu Lie opened his eyes, he still saw Li Yuan's back. However, this time the other party stood up, stood on the edge of the back of the Kun Lei Beast, frowned and looked down, not knowing what he was thinking about in his heart.

The Kunthluo Beast stopped moving forward again. Lu Lie could feel that because the earth no longer bumps, the blue stars in the sky no longer move backwards.

"What happened?"

Lu Lie asked.

"After entering the restricted area of ​​Huangquan Kingdom, the team that the gods protected us was attacked by a group of even more terrifying dead creatures. They were wiped out, and even the Kunthread beast was killed by those creatures."

"We are trapped here, we cannot move forward or retreat."

After receiving Li Yuan’s reply, this was obviously a terrible and sensational news, but for some reason, Lu Lie couldn’t help but feel any turbulence in his heart, but instead he was a little tired.

He was too lazy to stand up and walked to the back of the Kun Lei Beast to take a look at what the dead creatures attacked the gods were.

"Those creatures won't kill to attack us for the time being, right?" Lu Lie just asked this question.

"Not for the time being." Li Yuan said, "These gods are very trustworthy. They fought hard to deal with the death to severely damage these monsters before they died, causing them to retreat temporarily. Moreover, the Kun Lei Beast also launched a barrier before they died to protect us hiding on its back. Even if these dead creatures make a comeback, they will not be able to break these barriers for a while."

"It seems that these guys are really betting on everything in order to be able to leave here." Lu Lie sighed.

He asked next: "So what should we do now? Should we walk away from the Kunthluo Beast?"

"No," Li Yuan said, "This is no longer a forbidden area for death that can survive by relying on human power. A grass, a tree, and even the stones under our feet are deadly poisons for us humans. The moment we fall from the back of the Kunthluo beast, we may die."

“The only thing we can do now is wait.”

"Oh." Lu Lie said perfunctorily. I don't know whether it was to agree with Li Yuan's point of view or just want to end the conversation.

He closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep again.

After a moment, Li Yuan took his eyes back from the distance of Huangquan Kingdom. He turned his head and looked at Lu Lie's sleeping look. A trace of apologies slipped across Li Yuan's eyes: "I'm sorry, Lu Lie."

"I lied to you."

"All of this, from the beginning, was a scam. And the center of this scam was you."

"And now, it's time for this scam to close. You have no use value and will no longer exist in this world."
