Chapter 636: 635. Cliff!
The shortest distance between two points is a straight line.
Walking from one side of the island to the designated location, the fastest route naturally cuts straight through the middle, but in reality, this isn’t the best option for the ten people.
"Considering our destination, it looks like it will take three to four days to reach. But crossing straight through might be difficult due to the numerous poisonous insects in the forest, and wild animals come out at night. To be safe, we should still walk along the coastline. What do you all think?"
"Okay, how about this? At night, we find a cave or somewhere similar by the sea to set up tents, and during the day we follow the compass to traverse the forest near the beach."
"I think that’s feasible. If we were to follow the coast the entire way, it would take at least two extra days."
This suggestion received unanimous approval from the ten people. So, as evening approached, they changed direction and started heading towards where the sea breeze was coming from.
The terrain in the rainforest was quite complex, almost devoid of flat ground, and they even encountered a not-so-small cliff. To save time, everyone decided to climb. This was a piece of cake for the three professional adventurers in the group, and the others had received some training as well, so it wasn’t too challenging of a task for them.
When Austin, Yin Dong, and another person had climbed to the top of the cliff barehanded, they took out a rope from their backpacks, tied it to a nearby tree, and threw the other end down.
"Everyone, hold onto the rope and come up one by one. Be careful, this cliff is quite slippery."
"Alright, we’ll go up one at a time."
Since there were different numbers of people on each side, they naturally took care of their own teammates first. Lin Yi and Shen Xianglin looked over at the two women beside them.
"You two go up first. We’ll cover the rear, just in case something happens."
Tang Shu looked at Geng Qiuqiu, "Sister Geng, you go first. I’ll bring up the rear."
"This... Xiao Shu, are you sure you can handle it?"
They knew Tang Shu was strong, otherwise Lin Chuan wouldn’t have decided that she must join as a permanent guest. But in terms of combat power, apart from seeing her shoot a few Bamboo Leaf Green Snakes with a sharpened stick, they hadn’t seen her other abilities.
Tang Shu said, "Don’t worry, it’s fine. I’ll bring up the rear."
Seeing this, Lin Yi decided to go first based on her word, "Then I’ll go up first and throw another rope down afterward."
If it doesn’t work out, they could always come back down; it would be a hassle, but no big deal.
Their month-long training really paid off. They climbed up using the ropes with almost the same speed as the other two next to them.
"Not bad, you guys have impressive strength!"
Alina looked over in their direction, her gaze lingering on Geng Qiuqiu for quite some time. As a fellow actress, she naturally held a sense of competition. Seeing that their climbing speed was nearly the same, she quickened her pace as well.
The two women quickly reached the top, and immediately two more ropes were sent down. Owen and his companion also began to climb. After Shen Xianglin’s hands were pulled up by Yin Dong above, only Tang Shu remained below.
"Xiao Shu, I’m holding the rope, don’t exert yourself too much..."
Before Shen Xianglin could finish his sentence, he saw Tang Shu head towards a protruding stone nearby. Lightly stepping on it with her right foot, she jumped up using the momentum, while her right hand grabbed one of the ropes, lightly tapping her feet against the cliff a few times.
In just the blink of an eye, she had reached the top of the approximately five-meter-high cliff!
