Chapter 236 The last section of the road, three difficulties!
After Chen Zijin finished speaking, Liu Xuemin frowned.
Then, a bad premonition spread in his heart!
The next second, he frowned and slowly said, "Why do you say that?"
There was a hint of anxiety and doubt in his voice, and his eyes were fixed on Chen Zijin, as if he wanted to read the answer directly from his face.
After looking at him, Chen Zijin shook his head hesitantly.
While thinking, his lips opened slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but the words were swallowed back.
It was not until a while later that he continued to speak: "Nothing, I just feel that all this is going... a little too smoothly..."
Chen Zijin's voice was very low.
After saying this, he and Liu Xuemin looked at each other.
The moment their eyes met, they could easily detect the uneasiness in each other's eyes.
At this moment, Chen Zijin's expression was still solemn, and his brows were furrowed as if deep grooves were carved on them!
At the same time, Liu Xuemin, who was standing by, also fell into endless contemplation.
Their operation went very smoothly this time, and there were almost no accidents!
All the clues seemed to have been arranged in advance, and they didn't have to spend any effort at all!
The lost paddle board, the tavern by the port, the black ship in Portacia Port, the Angel Falls in Venezuela...
These clues are actually very easy to hide.
But Chu Chen didn't do that.
Thinking of this, Liu Xuemin murmured: "So, what you mean is... the clues we found before were actually left by him on purpose?"
His voice was very light, as if he was asking Chen Zijin, and as if he was asking himself.
Hearing this, Chen Zijin nodded meaningfully: "It's not impossible..."
"Why did he do this?" Liu Xuemin asked again, his tone full of confusion.
"I don't know..." Chen Zijin shook his head helplessly, his face full of confusion and confusion.
After looking at each other, the two fell into contemplation again.
The next second, Chen Zijin spoke again:
"I always feel that all this seems to be an illusion he created for us..." His voice broke the silence, but it brought more questions and uneasiness.
"Illusion?" Liu Xuemin asked puzzled.
"Well..." Chen Zijin nodded.
Liu Xuemin didn't quite understand what he meant, let alone what he meant by "illusion".
Could it be that climbing up the Angel Falls was not his seventh challenge?
While thinking, Chen Zijin looked at him deeply, and then continued:
"Do you think that a criminal like him would not think of what we did on the Gaiana Plateau? If he already knew that the outcome after reaching the summit was to fall into a trap, why would he start this challenge without hesitation?"
"Don't forget, he still has a challenge to complete. Based on my understanding of this guy, at this juncture, he will definitely not let his plan go to waste, even if he sacrifices his life! According to this logic, everything he is doing now is very likely to confuse our reconnaissance direction..."
After Chen Zijin finished speaking, Liu Xuemin pondered for a long time without speaking.
What he said really makes sense.
After more than a month of contact, they know what kind of person Chu Chen is better than anyone else.
A criminal like him who relies on his talent and arrogance will definitely achieve his goal by any means as long as he has determined something, even if he sacrifices his life!
He will definitely not give in easily before all eight challenges are completed!
Just as Chen Zijin said, this seventh challenge is likely to confuse their reconnaissance direction.
But based on the clues they have now, this arrest operation is the best solution they can give.
We can't just give up, right?
At this point in the game, this is their only chance to confront him.
If they can't catch him this time, they can only bet on his last crime!
Based on this point, they have to give it a try no matter what!
No matter what his real purpose is!
Liu Xuemin secretly made up his mind.
At the same time, his eyes became firm, as if burning with a flame that never goes out.
The next second, he took a deep breath and said to Chen Zijin in a deep voice: "No matter what, we can't retreat. Even if this is a trap set by Chu Chen, we have to jump in and see what tricks he is playing."
Hearing this, Chen Zijin nodded heavily and said: "Yes, we have no way out."
At this moment, the conversation between the two was seen by the audience in the live broadcast room!
Various comments were constantly flooding the screen:
[Isn’t this the seventh challenge? This isn’t the seventh challenge, what is this? ]
[Good boy, have these two found some key clues again? ]
[As expected of a conversation between big guys, it’s too profound! ]
[I feel like my brain is going to grow if I listen to it any more! ]
[The expert group is now confused by Chu Shen and is in deep self-doubt! ]
[There’s nothing I can do, Brother Chen is too awesome! ]
[Agree! ]
…
…
…
At the same time!
Venezuela!
When the two people in the command room were discussing Chu Chen's action, he was very close to the summit!
After several hours of climbing, his physical strength also showed a significant decline, and his speed was much slower than before.
But his movements were still very solid!
He was extremely accurate in grasping each support point!
The next second.
When his right hand grabbed a rock point, the micro-eye of the sky also gave him a close-up at the first time!
Through the ultra-high-definition live camera, it can be clearly seen that every inch of muscle on Chu Chen's arm is like steel, as if full of endless power!
At this moment, his leg muscles are like a cheetah hunting. Every time he pedals, his trouser legs will be filled, making the blue veins at his ankles bulge high, pushing him steadily to a higher place.
During the entire climbing process, Chu Chen hardly rested.
But his breathing was still steady and powerful.
The whole person's state did not show any fatigue, and he still looked full of fighting spirit, and it didn't look like he had been climbing for several hours with his bare hands!
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you really couldn't imagine that a person could climb to this height in one breath without taking a rest, and with bare hands without any protection!
Seeing this scene, the barrage in the live broadcast room increased again, and they all said:
[Chu Shen's physical fitness is too damn invincible! ]
[Awesome (broken voice)! ]
[I have been climbing for five hours, and my movements are not deformed! ]
[Boss, do you still need a pendant on your leg? ]
[Brother Chen is really awesome, please accept my knee! ]
[I'm not afraid of being laughed at by everyone, I feel that I can only climb five meters at most...]
[I'm not laughing at you, I can only climb two meters at most...]
[This challenge is too suffocating! People with weak psychological endurance must not watch it! ]
[Too amazing! ]
……
……
……
In the live broadcast room, everyone was talking about it!
And at this time, his climbing height had successfully exceeded 900 meters and came to a crack.
Next, as long as you successfully conquer this place, you can enter the last section of the road and start the journey to the top.
After taking a general look at the rock structure here, Chu Chen made a slight adjustment, and then set out on the journey again without saying a word!
He first selected a rock point, then carefully moved his body close to the edge of the crack, stretched out a hand, and tried the rock on the other side of the crack!
Due to limited vision and the interference of the waterfall next to him, Chu Chen could only find new rock points by constantly groping.
At this moment, in the live broadcast!
His fingers were gently touching the surface of the rock, feeling its texture and hardness, until he touched a small bulge on the uneven rock surface, and then held it in his palm!
When this fixed point was confirmed to be correct, Chu Chen immediately moved the center of gravity of his body to one side of the crack!
Immediately afterwards, his feet also left the previous rock points one after another, looking for the next depression for support on the rock wall below.
During the entire movement, in order to ensure that the center of gravity of the body does not shift, Chu Chen's right hand has never dared to relax, and his fingers have always been tightly grasping the protrusion of the rock. Only when the center of gravity is completely over and the left hand finds a suitable rock point, he dares to make adjustments.
"Huh!"
When the body is completely close to the crack, Chu Chen took a deep breath and adjusted his breathing rhythm.
Then, he continued to use the current support and began to slowly move his body, step by step, to the other side of the crack.
His movements were very slow, and every step was very cautious and careful.
At the same time, his eyes did not relax, always staring at the rock wall in front of him, looking for the next support point!
As the height continued to increase.
Every second in the live broadcast room seemed particularly long!
When he made a move, the live broadcast barrage would swipe the screen.
At this moment, after a period of hard work, he was getting closer and closer to the other side of the crack.
Seeing this, Chu Chen began to change his climbing posture and the way of choosing rock points, and directly stretched out his right hand to grab a rock point next to the crack.
Then, his left and right feet moved successively, stepping on the two rock protrusions next to the crack, and found stable support!
At this moment, every audience in the live broadcast room was nervously watching Chu Chen's every move.
Because they were too nervous, their hearts were also fluctuating with Chu Chen's climbing!
Soon, after these three points were fixed, Chu Chen did not delay, and his left hand continued to follow up and grabbed a rock point on the crack.
With this rock point to leverage, his remaining three points also moved one after another, and he easily passed through the crack and successfully entered the last section of the road!
At this time, the straight-line distance between him and the top of the cliff was at most more than a hundred meters.
But if you really want to climb up, it will be far more than that.
Because the real challenge has just begun!
As a rock wall with a very high difficulty level, this section of the road is the most thrilling and exciting level of the entire Lord of Life, and it can even be said that there is no other!
There are three difficult points in climbing this section of the road.
The first difficulty is a crack vertical to the ground, with a total length of more than ten meters. The rock walls on both sides of the crack are very smooth and the rock points are almost invisible. If you want to climb up, you can only work on this crack.
The second difficulty after the crack is a rock wall that needs to be cut across a short distance. Here, a rock climbing technique called "flying + crimp" is needed to complete it!
Flying, as the name suggests, is a leap.
Crip is to grab the rock point with the power of fingers!
The combination is to first fly and then grab the rock point with your fingers!
Flying crimp is a very dangerous action in freehand rock climbing, nothing else.
Even the karate flying kick that many people are familiar with cannot compare with it!
Because of this action, the climber needs to leave the rock wall for a short time, give up all the rock points, and put the body in the air!
In this case, if there is a problem with the subsequent crimp, all previous efforts will be wasted.
Based on this point, no one will use the method of flying crimp in freehand rock climbing unless it is necessary.
The reason why this section of the road is chosen to cross is that the rock wall after the crack is severely damaged by weathering and is no longer suitable for climbing.
If you want to continue, you must cross to the right, cross a waterfall, and grab the rock point on the opposite rock wall!
The width of this waterfall is at least two meters.
Because of the influence of the waterfall flow, there is no place to hold on to around, and visibility is not very good!
It is almost impossible to cross the rock wall.
The only way is to fly over this waterfall and grab the rock point on the right rock wall!
There is no other choice!
Because you can't grab it with your hands.
In the movie "The Thief", the protagonist's teammates were buried in this place!
The second difficulty is the most difficult to operate among the three difficulties, and it is also the most dangerous one!
If you are not careful, all the previous efforts will be in vain!
If it is protected climbing, this is nothing, and you can start over if you fail.
But for freehand climbing, failure means facing death, and there is no chance to start over!
Success or failure is all in a thought!
As for the third difficulty!
It is actually the last level before reaching the top!
What you need to use here is a climbing technique called mantle!
The so-called mantle roughly means a technical action of supporting the whole body with hands, which is a bit like the muscle-up, but not entirely.
This action is usually used by rock climbers to overcome large rocks blocking the way.
The rock wall of Angel Falls is different from ordinary rock walls.
Due to its special geographical location, the structure of the top of the cliff is also very unique, and all the edges are protruding.
If you want to reach the top, you can only use the mantle to support your whole body to flip over.
This is the only way!
