Everything had been going smoothly before, but it was a pity that at the last moment, Lady Luck was not on his side.

When he saw the dial on the clock tower starting to rotate in advance, Mustard Soup knew that he would not be able to pass this level, not to mention the appearance of avalanches and zombies... In this case, don't hurt your teammates anymore.

"I don't care, come up here!" Jiang Niao kicked the mustard soup onto the cart and ran forward crazily.

But he forgot that mustard soup is a cook.

I have a knife, silly bird... Mustard Soup squeezed out the last bit of strength, took out the knife, and cut the rope.

There was suddenly no weight behind him, and Jiangniao staggered and fell to the ground.

The ice sheet collapsed, and Mustard Tang, who was almost too sleepy to keep his eyes open, waved at the backs of Gu Chi and the others, then closed his eyes with peace of mind, and fell into the darkness with the cart.

Cold system text emerged.

[Player Mustard Soup died, mission failed, number of remaining players: 6]

The river bird did not look back.

He clenched his fists, bit his lip, got up and continued running.

Ahead, Lingmao's eyes were red, but she knew that now was not the time to vent her personal emotions. She had to follow Gu Chi closely to ensure that the man who was opening the way ahead could receive treatment as soon as possible after being injured.

"Bang, bang bang!"

While running, Gu Chi pulled the trigger again and again, while dodging the white bear coming from the side. His expression only changed slightly the moment the system announcement appeared, and then became calmer.

"Boom!"

The ice sheet was collapsing faster and faster, as if there was an invisible giant mouth that was constantly devouring their retreat.

Led by Gu Chi, the three people who shuttled among the zombies and white bears accompanied by the sound of gunfire were getting closer and closer to the rising bell tower.

Until the last five meters are left.

Gu Chi calculated the distance, threw the pistol into his backpack, and suddenly jumped with force——

Boom!

His body hit the clock tower with a dull sound. With the blessing of Stone Skin Technique, Gu Chi's left hand directly scratched the wooden wall under the dial. After sliding down for a distance, it hung firmly outside the bell tower.

Lingmao and Jiangniao arrived one after another. They didn't have strong hands like Gu Chi, but fortunately the bell tower had sharp edges and corners, so there were many places where they could put their hands on each other, and the two of them quickly stabilized themselves.

"Tick tock."

The hands on the blue dial completed its thirty-eighth revolution.

"Buzz!"

The speed of the bell tower's ascent suddenly accelerated, almost throwing the bellcat away.

"Hold on tight!"

Gu Chi yelled from above.

Under their feet, the last piece of land in the ice sheet collapsed, and countless zombies and white bears roared and fell into the abyss.

"Tick tock."

Circle thirty-nine.

Time has come to the end.

But Jiangniao had no idea what to do.

Only when he actually posted it on the clock tower did he realize that the two dials were much larger than he imagined, and even the second hand was thicker than his arm. How could he take it apart?

Fried?

"Jiangniao, come up and help me!"

Since it was difficult to dismantle, he would not dismantle it. Gu Chi made a quick decision and decided to directly reverse the blue dial.

Leave the yellow dial to Bellcat.

"Lingmao, you find a way to fix its pointer and don't let it go to six o'clock!"

"good!"

The two received the order and acted quickly.

The bell tower had already brought them up in the air at this moment, and the river birds who were afraid of heights did not dare to look down. They just climbed up desperately, letting big beads of sweat streak across their cheeks.

But when he was almost climbing to his destination, he suddenly stopped.

Gu Chi sensitively sensed something was wrong, and he followed Jiang Niao's gaze and raised his head.

On the eaves at the top, there was a white bear looking at them with a fierce look.

Gu Chi fell silent.

After playing the game so far, he had vague answers to many puzzling questions in his mind. The rhythm of the dungeon advancement was basically under his control, and this white bear was the only thing that completely exceeded his expectations.

matter.

Jiangniao said nothing, then climbed up, and soon reached the same height as Gu Chi.

He is on the right and Gu Chi is on the left. On the blue dial between them, the hour hand is approaching the end point.

Gu Chi's Adam's apple squirmed as he calmly thought about ways to kill the white bear safely.

But Jiangniao didn't give him time and directly took out the elephant hunting gun.

He has never been a good-tempered person, has little patience, and is not very polite when he is excited.

However, he also has his own advantages - at least Jiangniao thinks so.

In reality, he can compromise with life, bow his head, and be submissive. He does not dare to help an old man who has fallen on the roadside, and does not dare to help those who are bullied. Even if someone bullies him, he can only swallow his anger and bear it silently.

Available in the game...

Sorry, he Jiangniao doesn't like this.

This team can be without him, but it cannot be without Gu Chi.

If Gu Chi is gone, he and Lingmao will also be finished. Rather than the three of them dying together, it would be better for him to die alone.

Or maybe, in his heart, he has always longed to be a hero. He is very handsome, isn't he?

Anyway...a smelly white bear also wants to block their way?

Doesn't exist.

"I'm going to find that damn fat guy, come on," Jiang Niao said to Gu Chi.

As soon as he finished speaking, a look of ruthlessness emerged in his eyes, he raised the muzzle of the gun, pointed it at the white bear, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

"You bitch, you will die!"

Bang!

The deafening sound of gunfire pierced the night sky and lingered for a long time.

The powerful recoil instantly knocked the river bird away. The white bear also let out a wail, fell from the roof, and was buried with the river bird.

[Player Jiangniao died, mission failed, number of remaining players: 5]

The bellcat below still didn't know what was going on. In the few seconds it took Jiangdiao to shoot, the blue dial had completed forty revolutions, the pointer stopped at eleven o'clock, and the yellow dial began to accelerate.

In order to stop it, Lingmao grabbed the hands on the dial with both hands and hung her whole body on it.

The sharp needle blade cut her palm, and bright red blood flowed down her wrist, which was shocking.

The bone-piercing pain in her heart left Lingmao with no time to care about anything else. She looked in pain, but never let go. She didn't even urge Gu Chi, because she believed that this man would never let her down.

Gu Chi put aside the complicated look in his eyes and looked at the blue dial again.

He asked Jiang Niao to come up. He originally wanted to move over slowly and see if the pointer could be lifted by the weight of two people.

If not, you can move it back and use other methods.

But now that Jiang Niao is dead, he has no choice.

Can only jump.

Gu Chi took a deep breath, used the protruding grid pattern of the bell tower as a springboard, jumped up, grabbed the hands of the blue dial with both hands, and pulled down heavily with the force of the fall!

"Buzz!"

The entire clock tower suddenly burst into dazzling light, and the abyss beneath them turned white. The hands on the dial seemed to be blurred. Gu Chi and Lingmao lost their grip and fell from the sky. At the same time, the hands on the blue dial began to reverse direction.

, and it turns faster and faster.

The falling two people were quickly engulfed in white light, and the backflow of air slapped their faces painfully, but it erased the wrinkles at the corners of their eyes. Their skin returned to smoothness silently, and their gray hair gradually turned black.

In the white light, scenes of hazy pictures and images quickly regressed.

Riverbird and Mustard Soup cuddled up next to each other and fell asleep.

Bellcat, which had been sleeping on him all night, rolled to the floor when he got up.

Neil held his golden retriever and stood outside the door looking at the villa reluctantly.

William rushed into the hospital with a gun and never came out.
