The day passed by excruciatingly slowly in torment while they were filled with fear. However, the time still eventually reached five in the afternoon. The sky turned somewhat gloomy, and it seemed as if it would start to rain soon. Also, the sea waves were reaching higher, wave after wave, which should be caused by a strong wind on the sea.

“Very well, we will wrap up here for today.” Liu Gan had searched for a day, but had not found anything. When he saw the darkening sky, he prepared to return to the prison camp.

“We can finally leave.” The other team members’ expressions all looked as if they had been pardoned from death row, and they were so emotionally moved that they nearly wept.

There was nothing more frightening than the constant threat to their lives, and the threat of dying tragically was even more frightening. Furthermore the most dreadful part was not knowing when the danger would descend upon them, and whether or not it would descend upon themselves. Being continuously filled with fear like this was very tiring for them.

Everyone got into their respectives vehicles to follow the road back to the prison camp. However just when the fleet were on the verge of arriving at the long and narrow exit zone, a muffled ‘boom’ sound suddenly came from the top of the cliff as if something had blown up. Afterwards, several of the boulders on the summit of the cliff broke off, and one after another, they smashed down a hundred or so meters in front of the fleet within the long and narrow area.

Some of the large, broken rocks in the cliff basin rebounded up off the ground. They bounced into the vicinity of the vehicle fleet. If one of the vehicles were to be hit by one of these large rocks, then they would definitely be destroyed on the spot.

Liu Gan called for the fleet to stop. He had a feeling that something was amiss, and once again led the fleet to retreat back towards the fishing village. It was just at this moment that several more booming sounds of explosions came from the summit of the cliff. Even more boulders crashed down from the top of the cliff, and completely sealed off the half-kilometer-wide long and narrow entrance area.

Even more fragmented rocks swiftly bounced and crashed down towards the fleet. Fortunately Liu Gan had promptly retreated in order to prevent the fleet from incurring damage as they evacuated into the safe zone in time. Within these rumbling sounds of toppling over, Liu Gan seemingly heard sounds that were similar to a helicopter, or something reminiscent of mechanical aviation. Yet, when he looked among the sky, he could not see anything, as the cliff sheltered it from view.

“Can the Kingler also fly? Can it shoot missiles?” Liu Gan drove the ATV to quickly escape while asking Treadmill, who was sitting in the back seat.

“It can’t, it has never been seen flying. It also has never been seen shooting missiles.” Treadmill shook his head.

“What’s happening on the hilltop? Have you ever come across this kind of situation before?” Liu Gan proceeded to ask Treadmill.

“No. We have never come across this kind of situation.” Treadmill had a puzzled expression.

The explosions occurred roughly five or six times before halting. No more explosions were heard, and no more boulders crashed down from the summit of the cliff. However, the road to return to the prison camp was completely sealed off by the boulders that fell down. There were scattered rocks of all sizes everywhere.

“We are trapped here!” The six naturalized players saw the distant road had been sealed off, and all of their faces showed looks of alarm and despair.
