Chapter 409: Life and Death

He was the only one standing at the stern of the ship. His mouth was open, and he wanted to cry out for help, but all he could do was make faint squeaking sounds.

“Little Lin, hold on tight. Don’t fall down!” The man shouted amidst the jolt.

It was likely that Little Lin was that person’s name. Looking at his appearance, he was still very young.

“Audrey, what are you doing!” Morris shouted when he saw Audrey suddenly release the pillar in her hand.

Audrey did not say a word. She frowned and tried her best to steady herself as she walked toward the stern of the boat.

“Freeze!” She stretched out her hands and pointed in the direction of the man.

The man who had been struggling to crawl suddenly turned into an ice sculpture. Audrey knew that she could not let the man continue to freeze. Otherwise, he would lose his life. She had to save him as soon as possible.

It was not just the boat. The entire river valley began to shake.

Dead fish and shrimp kept coming up. No one knew what was in the water.

In the current situation, they could only let the boat drift with the current. They had no way of controlling the direction of the boat.

“Audrey, be careful!” Klein exhorted when he saw Audrey’s swaying appearance.

Audrey nodded and focused all her attention on the man who was stuck at the stern of the ship. Although the ship was bumpy, there was a pattern to it.

Taking advantage of the moment when the ship was falling, Audrey approached the stern of the ship step by step.

Under everyone’s nervous gazes, Audrey finally reached the stern of the ship and bumped into Little Lin. She grabbed the man’s hand and chanted a spell in a low voice to untie the man who was frozen.

Just as she was about to pull Little Lin ashore, the ship suddenly shook violently. Little Lin was terrified and suddenly loosened her grip on the stern of the ship.

“No!” Audrey cried out in alarm as she rushed over to grab Little Lin’s hand.

Whoosh!

Fortunately, she had caught it.

However, both of them were in danger now.

Half of Audrey’s body was hanging on the ship, and Little Lin was only a foot away from the valley water. If she moved even a little, she might fall into the valley water.

“Don’t let go,” Audrey said with difficulty as she looked at Little Lin’s tender face.

The boat was still shaking. She desperately tried to grab Little Lin’s hand, but their hands continued to slide, and the distance between them kept increasing.

Bang!

With a loud sound, the boat hit a sharp stone at the bottom of the valley, and the entire boat tilted forty-five degrees.

“No!”

On Audrey’s side, Little Lin’s hand had completely let go of her. Due to the inertia, Audrey was also dragged into the valley.

“Audrey!”

Horrified cries rang out.

Just as Audrey thought that she was about to fall into the water, a pair of hands stopped her from behind and forcefully pulled her back to the ship.

It was Morris.

However, Little Lin, a fresh and young man, had disappeared just like that.

After he fell into the river, the fish and prawns quickly surrounded him. He could not even make a sound of resistance. There was only a faint whimper coming from the water.

Everyone’s faces were filled with a heavy look. Morris had somehow found a long rope and tied the other end of the rope to the pillar.

The other end was tied to his waist, allowing him to stabilize his body.

“Audrey, protect yourself first,” Morris said seriously as he tied the rope for Audrey.

In this place, nothing was more important than one’s own life. It was even more impossible to use one’s own life to protect others. Morris felt that Audrey was too soft-hearted.

Little Lin’s painful sobs continued to ring out. Audrey closed her eyes in pain. The image of Little Lin falling into the valley water just now seemed to have been carved into her mind, and she could not accept it at all.

“Audrey, cheer up! We’re still in danger!” Seeing that Audrey was still in a daze, Morris grabbed her shoulders and forced her to look at him. He said each word very seriously.

Looking at the row of terrified companions standing behind him, Audrey blinked and nodded heavily.

Now that she had watched one person leave, he had to protect the rest.

“Great Snow Goddess, please give me the power of ice and fire!” Audrey stood up and shouted as she looked up at the sky.

For a moment, the red and white colors in the sky surged. Beams of light hit the valley water. The fish and prawns that were still jumping seemed to have stopped for a moment.

The boat gradually stabilized.

Taking advantage of this gap, the man and the rest of the people immediately paddled the boat.

The boat gradually approached the shore, and everyone heaved a deep sigh of relief.

When the boat reached the shore, Audrey urged everyone to hurry down. No one knew what was in the valley water, and it was safer to stay far away.

After Audrey got off the boat, the ice seal behind her was lifted. The reactions of the fish and prawns were even more intense than before.

Not far away, the spot where the small scales had fallen was scarlet red. Audrey took a glance and quickly moved away.

“I’m sorry,” she lowered her head and said to the man.

Upon hearing this, Morris hurriedly walked over and said, “Audrey, this isn’t your fault. There’s no need to apologize.”

The man also nodded and said in a deep voice, “Miss Audrey, you can’t be blamed for this. It’s not your fault. You don’t have to blame yourself.”

They had long since become indifferent to life and death because they had already witnessed too much along the way.
