They had to take the Brave Rapids ride at 11:19.

Wu Jin fed the exchange voucher into the machine and soon obtained a single ticket. The ticket time: 12:05.

Wu Jin was stunned.

At the entrance to the channel, Wei s.h.i.+ gestured silently.

Jingyi would arrive in less than 5 minutes.

Wu Jin waited another minute.

He used another exchange voucher.

Ticket time: 12:06.

The youth suddenly bowed his head.

His mind was buzzing with thoughts. The pa.s.sage of time in the pyramid was the same as real time. They would have to wait 11 hours for the next correct time for the Brave Rapids, but based on the design of the instances, that was impossible. Unless time went against the current

Time going backwards.

Wu Jins shoulders stiffened.

The Ferris Wheel moved backwards in time because the pointers didnt rotate while the clock surface moved clockwise. In other words, manipulating the clock itself allowed them to modify the time. If he wanted to reverse the time for this clock

Wu Jin thought of the first clue from the clerical temple.

The priest had added water to the water clock container.

The water level rose, and time reversed.

!!! Wu Jin quickly tossed the rest of the exchange vouchers from the

to the big boss. Then, he scooped up half a cup of river water with a military cup, hung it on his waist, rolled up his sleeves, and climbed up along the wall to the water clock at the top of the secret chamber.

The previous climbing through the channel had already consumed most of Wu Jins physical strength. This journey was very difficult for him, and the most he could do was ensure that he kept up a steady pace. At this time, there was less than three minutes before Jingyi would arrive at the chamber.

Wei s.h.i.+s gaze swept around and he quickly found several stones, preparing to impede teh others to help Wu Jin get more time.

On the chamber wall.

The vivid, lifelike murals on the tomb wall accompanied Wu Jin all the way up.

First, the red crane came to the Nile Valley, leading the king of the land to become the embodiment of the Nile G.o.d.

Wu Jin gasped for breath. The wall was steep, and the footholds were thin. It took almost all of his strength to continue climbing. Wu Jin took a look at the top of the water clock, then carried his gear with him and continued up.

Another mural. After his death, the king arrived at the reed plains where the G.o.ds were located in a small boat and faced each trial he was given fearlessly.

There was a sudden noise from the channel!

Jingyi made their way up first, followed by Raphael. Wei s.h.i.+ didnt say a single word as he kicked a stone down the channel. Ming Yao howled in the corridor, and the 16 year old Wei s.h.i.+ stood still, holding two arrows between three of his fingers and aiming it straight at the dark exit of the channel.

On the chamber wall.

The mural at the very top. Anubis, the jackal-headed G.o.d, took out the heart of the dead for judgement. If it was lighter than a

feather

, the judged would live forever after death. If it was heavier than a feather, they would become a

sacrifice for Anubis

.

Wu Jin reached out and was finally able to touch the highest point of the water clock.

The youth darted up two more steps, his legs balancing against the water clocks frame as he pulled the military cup out of his backpack. He touched the rough scale and poured water into the water clock container, What time is it now? Wu Jins palms were sweating, and he spoke as fast as he could.

Wei s.h.i.+ fed a voucher into the ticket machine, 10:52.

Wu Jin nodded and scooped out some water.

Wei s.h.i.+s heart rate had also accelerated, 11:10.

Wu Jin finally had a rough understanding of the scale. He squinted at the water level and scooped out a little more.

Wei s.h.i.+ used the fifth voucher, 11:09.

Theyd met the time conditions. The chain in the waterway creaked and s.h.i.+fted. The boats for the Brave Rapids ride were about to set off!

Inside the channel, the other two teams of players had also arrived. Caesars loud whimpering could be heard from the backthe stones that the big boss had tossed down had b.u.mped and bounced and finally smashed into Caesar, who was at the very back.

Ming Yao, whod been the first to poke his head out, hadnt even had a chance to see the situation clearly when two arrows were shot straight at him.

A sharp sword, ever triumphant.

Be careful! Zuo Botang suddenly reached for Ming Yao.

At the entrance to the channel, beside the ticket machine, Wei s.h.i.+ had another two arrows loaded and ready to go. The mans expression held a rare youthfulness and was flamboyantly reckless as he insisted on holding the last line of defense for Wu Jin. He would never take a step back.

On the other hand, Wu Jin was panting for breath.

The Brave Rapids ride had finally been activated. Even if he and the big boss could hold down the defense line from their height advantage, they would miss the boat. However, if they had to wait until he climbed back down from the top, they would miss this round

Wu Jin suddenly spoke up, Get on the boat.

The 16 year old Wei s.h.i.+ paused and looked at Wu Jin who was still quickly climbing down. The youths small curls were damp, and it was unknown if it was sweat or water from the river. At this time, Wu Jin was at least 16 meters of vertical distance away from the river. The path of the Brave Rapids boat would pa.s.s the wall where Wu Jin was just before it rushed down

Wei s.h.i.+ nodded, and his long legs moved swiftly towards the boat that had been shaped like a human coffin.

Without Wei s.h.i.+s suppression, Zuo Botang and Raphael both poked their heads out from the channel at the same time!

The Crosson Shows live stream room.

The camera lens cut to the pyramid instance once again.

Ying Xiangxiang looked at the scene for a few seconds before saying in astonishment, Little Witch is going to jump into the boat? Can he make a 16 meter jump?

Blood Pigeon zoomed in on the virtual map and highlighted a spot, The point where the Brave Rapids pa.s.ses by Contestant Wus location is where the dive in the tracks begins. That means that after Contestant Wu jumps down the boat will begin the drop and enter weightlessness at the same time. With double weightlessness as a buffer, he can make the jump, its not a problem.

But, looking at this track, the safest alt.i.tude is still within 7 meters.

In the middle of the screen, Wu Jin scurried down the wall.

At the moment when Jingyi popped up from the channel, it was as though Wu Jins brain waves were connected with Wei s.h.i.+s. The youth suddenly turned around with the help of the wall.

The sharp arrow in his hand was set in place.

Wu Jins brow was stern, and his arms trembled slightly from too much climbing. His hands were pale from the force he used to stabilize the bow. The long arrow howled as it flew towards Zuo Botang!

The Jingyi sniper was caught off guard before he could stand stably. A moment later, Wei s.h.i.+ had already jumped onto the boat and accurately took over the attack, replacing Wu Jin.

Great! In the live broadcast room, Blood Pigeon was also praising Wu Jins arrow. In this game, its hard to pinpoint why, but Little Witchs state seems to be worse than before. Blood Pigeon pondered, His strength isnt sufficient, like hes recovering from a serious illness. However, during that attack just now, the power and accuracy was perfect.

Blood Pigeon concluded, Little Witchs tactical foundation is now very solid. I can see that he has made much progress.

At the top of the pyramid.

The boat began to move slowly.

Seeing that there was no hope of getting onto the boat, the two teams didnt hesitate to aim at Wu Jin who was still holding onto the wall. However, Wei s.h.i.+s hands didnt leave the string as he sent out a volley of attacks, forcibly creating buffer time for Wu Jins safe descent.

The chain turned.

The human-shaped coffin boat began to accelerate.

In the live broadcast room, Blood Pigeon shook his head slightly, 12 meters. Contestant Wu can only make the drop from 12 meters. He almost used up his strength with the arrow just now, so his climbing and movement speed has become very slow.

Ying Xiangxiang hesitated, 12 meters

Blood Pigeon spread his hands, Itll be dependent on luck. Or Contestant Wei can help catch him from the boat. However, the skill required is too high. Even professional players cant be certain about a catch with this level of difficulty.

A 12 meter vertical jump wasnt at the upper limit of human ability, and there were acrobats who could achieve it.

However, the body fat ratio of trainees was lower than that of ordinary people, and the corresponding risk was higher.

The boat was about to reach Wu Jins jumping point.

There was a clicking sound from the track.

The entire boat was ready to dive down the track, and the helm of the boat hit some turbulence, splas.h.i.+ng out a huge spray of water.

Wu Jin was trembling, but he had to jump even if it was an impossible jump; if he didnt jump, hed be shot by Jingyi like a static target, and when the program team peeled him off the wall later, theyd still see a Wu Jin outline amidst the messy arrows

Inside the boat on the Brave Rapids.

Wei s.h.i.+ suddenly stood up and stared hard at Wu Jin.

Originally, hed thought that Wu Jin could climb down to 7 meters, but the current 12 meter jump far exceeded his estimations. The little shortie couldnt be considered a genetically modified human with improved body functions, and his ability to balance was a mess, however he had no choice but to jump

Both of Wei s.h.i.+s arms were shaking.

At this time, the 16 year old youth from Wei s.h.i.+s consciousness had instinctively forgotten about the existence of the life-saving capsule. In fact, the blood in his entire body was moving rapidly, and his arm muscles were practically spasming from excessive force.

There was a ringing in his ears, just like that day when the two of them had escaped from the R-Code Base. Half of his consciousness was torn, while the other half spoke in a deep voice, Go back.

The 16 year old Little Wei s.h.i.+s eyes were red, Why?!

The other half of his soul spoke haughtily, Because I can catch him.

In mid-air.

Wu Jin jumped.

The candlelight of the entire pyramid seemed to swirl like fireflies. Wu Jin felt that hed really made a mistake this time, and he hadnt calculated his loss of strength after pulling the bow.

In his field of vision, countless murals depicting death flew by due to his free fall.

Wu Jin made one last s.h.i.+ft.

At this time, he would probably turn into a ball upon landing The only concern was whether or not the life-saving capsule would hit the cub, and whether or not the cub would become the only player whod been knocked out by a life-saving capsule in the entire history of the Crosson Show

At the moment of landing.

Wu Jin hadnt yet had time to push Wei s.h.i.+ aside when a powerful arm suddenly caught and held him tightly, skillfully providing a buffer.

The mans heated, hormone-filled scent was overwhelming as it surrounded him.

Wei s.h.i.+ gave a low laugh, Sit tight.

The boat that carried souls swooped down.

The water splashed out in waves, and murals flew by in their field of vision.

Water overlapped with light and shadow, and countless legends about death were connected together in the murals.

After the death of King Osiris of Ancient Egypt, the queen exchanged her

mourning wails

for the Kings rebirth.

After Nefertaris death, Ramses II often came to visit late at night with a candle lamp in his hand, carving poems to mourn her on the stone walls.

An asp was wrapped around Cleopatras back, the woman calmly waiting for death. After this final Queens reign came to an end, n.o.bles were no longer willing to listen to the myths of Ancient Egypt, and accept their words and G.o.ds.

The pyramids, temples, and hieroglyphs were all sealed up on the banks of the Nile.

Their field of vision suddenly lit up!

The two of them rushed straight out of the Sphinx at the top of the pyramid and sped down the slope of the structure

The splas.h.i.+ng water was getting more and more intense.

Wei s.h.i.+ casually took off his combat jacket and blocked the incoming water for Wu Jin.

There was a crash.

The boat had reached the bottom of the Brave Rapids.

The intense water mist and foam spray blocked the view of the cameras.

Wei s.h.i.+ bowed his head and bit Wu Jins neck as though swearing sovereignty.

Juurensha: Yaaaaay, go Little Witch!

xiin: Because I can catch him MY HEART
