That's right, this stone was at the edge.
The darkness that leaked out from the crack was so shocking.
Compared to the howling cold wind on the mountain peak, this infinitely close to death was the most terrifying existence.
Before the people who were exposed to the snow could recover, their hearts jumped to their throats again.
"This…"
"Hiss hiss hiss!"
The sound of gasps rose and fell, and they were extremely shocked.
At this moment, Su Cang looked at everyone.""Only eight?"
Hearing Su Cang's voice, Ah Ning also reacted. He looked at them and asked,""Where is he? Where were they? Is he buried inside?"
"Quick, quick, quick!"
"Drag him out…"
Soon, the first batch of mercenaries who came out immediately began to search.
Because the ropes were connected together, they were very close to each other.
Not long after, he found one.
Someone could tell at a glance that he had fallen into a temporary lack of oxygen. He slapped him twice and woke him up violently.
If he was any slower, he would have suffocated to death.
"Quick, quick, quick!"
"There are still people. Hurry up, you guys!”
"There's more! Dig them out!"
Ah Ning was very anxious. At this moment, she was relatively close to Su Cang, but because she was leaning against the edge of the big rock, the range she could move was very limited.
However, this time, it took a long time.
He didn't find anything.
Nothing!
"There's no need to look for it!"
At this moment, Su Cang spoke, deciding life and death with a single word.
"He probably didn't hold on to it properly and was washed down by the avalanche.”
"You'll know when you pull out the rope. Didn't the last batch tie the rope around their waists?”
"Yes, sir! Boss!"
Soon, the rope was pulled out.
There was nothing tied to the end of the rope, which also confirmed Su Cang's deduction that he had been washed down.
"Bill and Toles aren't here,"
"They…"
The mercenary looked sad and opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
Two of them had died because of the ice erosion.
The moment the crack appeared, two more mercenaries fell into the Abyssal Chasm.
After the avalanche, another two were washed away.
And now, other than Su Cang, there were only nine people left from the original fifteen.
The crack was about a meter away from them…
In other words, he had fallen into the abyss.
The sudden disaster instantly took the lives of four people in the team.
Even Su Cang's heart was slightly shaken.
"Hmm?"
Then, his gaze caught the end of the rope.
"This fracture…"
Ah Ning saw it too and muttered in shock,""This was…cut by a knife."
"What?"
Hearing this, the surviving mercenaries and the others 'expressions changed drastically.
"Bill, Toles, they…cut the rope?”
"Not bad!"
"They cut it off on their own accord!" Ning took a deep breath.”
"In other words, after the avalanche, when we resisted, they knew that they couldn't hold on any longer. In order not to drag down their teammates, they chose to commit suicide.”
"Because they have ropes tied around their waists. If we don't cut them, more people will be taken away…"
At this point, Ah Ning stopped talking.
The mercenaries fell silent.
As for Su Cang, he understood the moment he saw the broken end of the rope.
To be honest, Su Cang actually looked down on these lazy and arrogant overseas mercenaries.
After all, they had been influenced by liberal values since they were young and did not like to be bound.
For a team, liking freedom was an unstable thing.
Su Cang did not like them because of this!
But not liking them didn't mean that Su Cang didn't respect them.
At that critical moment, when their lives were at stake, they could still cut off their own ropes to protect the people around them.
This spirit…
Perhaps it was the good side of human nature.
"These guys…have guts!"
Su Cang sighed in his heart. At the same time, he said to Ah Ning,"Get rid of the snow on your shoulders. This stone can stand on its cross-section and is stable.”
Hearing this, Ah Ning instantly understood what he meant.
"Okay, Brother Cang, I understand.”
He was too close to the opening of the rift. He had to change his position.
If there was another wave of this inexplicable vibration, it would be over.
So, she shouted to the crowd," Don't move. Grab the rope and push away the snow on your body bit by bit. Then, come up to me."”
"You have to move the snow quickly.”
Seeing that Ah Ning instantly understood what he meant, Su Cang felt relieved and gratified.
Ah Ning was a talent that could be molded!
But at this moment, Su Cang still said,""Wait a minute!"
"Wave after wave, this layer of snow is already a little weak after passing through it. This cross-section can't possibly hold ten of us.”
"The three of you go first. Use the pickaxe to climb up step by step.”
"Go up to the high point in front. The reverse slope behind should be safe. The angle of the crack is not here.”
"Three people in a group, one go!"
"Speed up!"
Hearing Su Cang's order, everyone nodded.
This was the most appropriate way to deal with it!
After a series of operations, the three people at the front collectively reached the cross-section of the boulder glacier.
At this moment, their position was a little awkward. Previously, it was a snowy slope, but now it had become a snowy steep slope, and it was even about to become a cliff.
If he didn't hurry up and hide here, he would die if there were any changes to the boulder.
If he didn't move, he would be waiting for death, waiting for himself to become an ice sculpture.
Time flew by…
In about five minutes, everyone climbed up.
Only Su Cang and Ah Ning were left.
The reason why Su Cang did not leave without a commander was not because he was not afraid of death, or that he wanted to cover for them. That was naturally impossible.
At this moment, Su Cang was weighing the pros and cons.
While everyone was climbing, he took out the compass for the second time and calculated.
Compared to the frenzied spinning from before, the needle was now moving in unison, which was rare.
And the direction that the divination was pointing at was the crack below.
At this moment, the inexplicable cry in his heart became even more intense.
"In the crack…"
"Is this…asking me to go down?"
