Chapter 232 231: Completing The Death Race
Imagine a sky that was once a canvas of icy serenity is now interrupted by an otherwordly spectacle. From the heavens, a colossal golden pillar descended like a divine messenger. Its towering presence rivaled the mightiest mountains, and as it neared the frigid wasteland, the very ice below quaked in fear.
With a thunderous roar, the colossal golden pillar made contact, and the world trembled. The ice, once unyielding, was now fractured and splintered like fragile glass. Each crack sent crystalline shards spiraling into the frigid air, catching the glint of the falling pillar's golden surface.
The impact reverberated across the frozen expanse, creating a breathtaking display of nature's power and the enigmatic arrival of this celestial artifact, forever altering the tranquil icy terrain.
It started with a thin line, almost like a small cut at the hem of a beautiful dress. And just like how a small and unnoticeable cut is usually the precursor to the destruction of a beautiful dress. This thin line was the precursor to the destruction of the icy landscape.
Corey, Divine, Rosa, and Fatty Black Bonez had baffled and awe-filled expressions as they looked at the gigantic golden pillar that stood atop the frozen land like an unshakeable pillar to the heavens.
"What the hell is that?"
Fatty Black Bonez asked with an incredulous expression as he gazed at the golden pillar. His eyes glanced at Divine briefly before moving towards the golden pillar.
"I don't know. This is my first time seeing something like this."
Divine shook his head, and Fatty's lips curled up slightly.
"I thought you knew everything."
Divine gazed at Fatty with an expressionless face. Seeing Divine's expressionless face, a scene appeared in Fatty's mind, and his heart started to beat in panic.
"Do you want a beating?"
Fatty Black Bonez hurriedly shook his head, and Divine nodded.
"Better."
Fatty Black Bonez's lips twitched, and Divine turned around to look at the golden pillar.
His eyes glowed, and then he looked at the sky, and he realized that the golden pillar went beyond the skies.
'What is this?'
Divine's brows furrowed slightly. Then he looked at the base of the golden pillar.
'Should we check it out? It could be a peerless treasure, or it could contain treasures.'
Divine rubbed his chin as a greedy glint flashed in his eyes. Just as he decided, he saw something on the icy floor.
lightsnοvεl.cοm He squinted his eyes, and a few seconds later, his eyes widened in shock and horror.
"ROSA! DRIVE! QUICKLY!"
Rosa looked at Divine with a baffled expression. This was the second time she would hear Divine scream in panic. The first time was when they encountered the army of Hastur, and rightfully so. Divine had a reason to be worried and fearful.
She could not help but wonder the reason for Divine's current panic.
"MOVE! MOVE! MOVE! THE ICE IS BREAKING APART!!"
"Shit."
The instant she heard Divine's words, she could not help but curse. She instantly started the ignition and drove at the fastest speed possible without using nitro. She looked at Corey, and just as she was about to speak, Corey spoke:
"The portal is directly in front of us. Just keep on moving straight."
Relief appeared in Rosa's eyes as she heard Corey's words.
How funny and rage-inducing would it be if the portal was behind them?
"Oh great and frightening Lord of Bones, please grant me your grace, and don't let your faithful servant die. I promise to sleep with more beautiful women. And I also promise not to put myself in danger anymore."
Fatty Black Bonez had a solemn expression as he muttered a very strange prayer with his hands clasped together and his eyes closed.
The colossal golden pillar was the epicenter of the impending disaster, and the ice around it was breaking apart at an alarming rate. Fractures snaked through the frozen landscape, creating a web of cracks that expanded outward. The tremors grew more violent, and the air was filled with the sound of shattering ice.
Corey, Divine, Rosa, and Fatty Black Bonez clung to their vehicle as Rosa skillfully navigated the treacherous terrain. They raced away from the advancing chaos, desperately trying to avoid the fractures that threatened to swallow them whole. The once serene landscape was now a chaotic battleground between man and nature.
Divine's heart pounded as he watched the cracks chasing them. His sharp eyes could see the golden light emanating from the pillar playing a pivotal role in the devastation. The source of this celestial artifact was a mystery, but its connection to the ice's destruction was undeniable. As they sped away, Divine tried to analyze the situation.
His eyes darted around, and he could notice an abnormality. He could see the crack running through frozen ground, which did not go near the frozen colossal ancient ship.
Usually, he would have used the frozen ship as a safe zone, or he would have included it in his plans. But his intuition warned him of the ship.
He trusted his intuition, and although he didn't know what was on the ship, he decided to abandon his plans regarding the ship.
'We can only depend on Rosa to take us to the portal safely.'
As they raced away from the ever-expanding fractures, Divine spotted something on the horizon—a black whirling portal. It was perched precariously on a floating ice platform.
The instant the portal came into the sights of the group of four, relief and happiness came over every one of them.
They didn't care about its current location. They only knew the distance between them and their freedom was 200m.
With bated breaths, they waited for Rosa to reach the portal. Only 100m was left.
PUCHI
To the shock and horror of Rosa, Divine, Corey, and Fatty Black Bonez, two ice spikes protruded beneath the ice. And like knife-piercing butter, the ice spikes pierced Racing Wolf's tires.
SCHRREEECCCHHHH!!!
Racing Wolf spun furiously, and Rosa struggled to keep the vehicle from tumbling.
But,
A few seconds later, the ice around them started to fracture, and the ground shook violently. The fissures widened, and the icy floor broke apart, revealing a chasm that seemed to continue forever.
Rosa tried to maneuver Racing Wolf, but it was not enough. The loss of tires was going to be the end of them.
The ground beneath them started to crumble, and the vehicle began to slide towards the abyss.
Corey gritted his teeth and tried to think of a way out of their current predicament. Just as he thought all hope was lost, Divine acted.
Divine's eyes glowed with a blue light, and he raised his hand. An ice platform appeared beneath Racing Wolf, and the vehicle landed safely.
The platform lifted them in the air, flying them towards the portal, and with a whoosh, they entered the portal.
