The night deepens.
The lights are coming on.
The tall buildings within sight look like a colorful steel forest.
Exceptionally dazzling.
far away.
The leisurely river reflects the colorful lights of the entire city, which looks enchanting at first glance.
But today, Lin Xiao's mind was not on this. His heart had long been filled with uneasiness and a vague fear.
Follow the road and cross an overpass.
The dazzling Pearl Tower is right before your eyes.
Higher than expected.
More than 400 meters.
If this person falls from the top of the tower, he will definitely be smashed into pieces.
"call"
Looking at the tall TV tower, Lin Xiao let out a long breath.
My heart is beating faster and faster.
At this moment, he knew better than anyone what the consequences of mission failure would be.
Climbing buildings without protection is called free solo in the extreme sports world.
The mortality rate is extremely high.
unsuccessful.
Then you will die for the sake of benevolence.
Although there is only one word difference between free rock climbing and free building climbing, the meanings are very different.
If a free climber dies, the most he can do is return to dust and return to nature.
But if a free climber loses his footing, he will die disfigured in front of the onlookers and television media.
They will even block traffic, disrupt public order, become news, become the focus, and become the topic of conversation for the general public and keyboard warriors after dinner.
Of course, even if they succeed, most climbers will be caught and detained for a few days. Who told you not to see the warning sign on the first floor: No Climbing
"Phew! This is really crazy. You must come back alive!"
After a brief struggle, Lin Xiao encouraged himself in his heart.
As a college student majoring in architecture, my knowledge is not detailed, but it is definitely systematic enough.
Therefore, Lin Xiao was not in a hurry to complete the task, but stood where he was, looking up, planning his own climbing route.
The Pearl TV Tower has three spheres: bottom, top and top.
They are located at altitudes of 112 meters, 295 meters and 350 meters respectively.
These are the three cruxes of the climb.
Secondly.
Because the surface of the inclined column is a high-performance plate that has been processed by pressure, it is very smooth and has no grooves, and does not meet the conditions for climbing.
Therefore, to reach the lower sphere, you need to find another way.
However, because it is the peak tourist season, banners are hung on the three slanted columns at the bottom.
A good idea is to use the hanging rope on the banner to climb.
This is an external factor and should not violate the rules.
Go past the diagonal column and you will reach the first sphere.
There are a lot of "little pointers" on it.
(Rock climbing term, as the name suggests, is a fingertip-sized rock hold.)
It can be used as the main support point for climbing.
After crossing the lower sphere, the connecting beam between the three pillars is the key to passing the level.
As long as you pass the crossbar and overcome the header, the space you can maneuver will become larger.
By then, reaching the summit will not be impossible.
"ok..."
After some analysis, Lin Xiao did several sets of warm-up exercises, first moving his fingers a few times, then stretching his arms, and finally doing ten sets of push-ups.
Perhaps it was because he had mastered the rock climbing skills, during the entire warm-up process, Lin Xiao could clearly feel that his limbs, waist and abdomen were full of strength.
At the same time, my body is much lighter than before.
His gestures and movements were more agile than usual.
Warm-up is complete.
He adjusted his breathing, and then while the staff were not paying attention, he walked through a patch of flowers and grass and came to a slanted pillar on the east side of the tower.
A promotional banner was hung on the slanted column.
The top of the hanging rope is connected to the lower sphere.
It's a good climbing path.
Countdown remaining: 1:40:10
I looked at the time.
Lin Xiao swallowed hard, retreated more than twenty meters, put some distance between himself and the diagonal column, then slowly bent down and got into a sprinting posture.
“Here it comes!”
The words fell.
While exerting force, he immediately used his mind to activate the dash skill!
Next second.
The moment the skill is activated, a warm current flows through the whole body.
The whole person was bathed in golden light, as if he had taken a large dose of adrenaline and gained endless power.
Seeing this.
Lin Xiao's eyes changed, and he rushed forward a long distance and started to run.
He is very fast.
Like a gust of wind, it suddenly passed through the crowd and attracted the attention of tourists.
The people nearby were all startled and looked sideways.
"What's going on?"
"Wow, honey, look at that guy, he's wearing a mask, is he performing on the street? What a novel way of performing!"
“You run so fast!”
“Wow, that’s amazing!”
"It's not a ghost, is it?"
"What is he going to do?"
Perhaps out of curiosity, pedestrians in groups of three or four stopped and gathered around.
While they were whispering to each other, Lin Xiao's speed was getting faster and faster.
But in the blink of an eye, he rushed to the bottom of the slanted column of the TV tower.
Immediately afterwards, the right foot took the lead.
Lin Xiao jumped suddenly and flew into the air.
The surrounding airflow penetrates into the airbags of the flight suit, making a whistling sound.
“Tatttatt!”
Relying on the inertia of the running start, after landing, Lin Xiao stepped three times on the inclined column, borrowed the force, flew upwards, grabbed the multiple hanging ropes behind the banner covered with words, and stabilized his body.
The whole set of movements was completed in one go, without any delay.
clean.
neat.
crisp.
The crowd watching saw this scene, all opened their mouths wide and couldn't help but exclaimed!
"Fuck..."
"What does this person want to do?"
"He's not going to climb up, is he?"
"Mom, that uncle was wearing a clown mask..."
“Wow, that’s cool!”
"Young people nowadays are so jumpy all the time, they are really out of tune, so naughty!"
While talking.
The crowd of onlookers kept growing, and now there were more than a dozen people.
At this time, a dark-faced middle-aged man in a security uniform, with a big belly and a flashlight in his hand, ran into the crowd in a hurry and shouted at Lin Xiao:
"Hey! What are you doing? I'm warning you, come down quickly. Didn't you see the sign prohibiting climbing? Come down quickly!"
On the inclined column.
Lin Xiao was holding the banner rope and slowly moving upwards.
At this time, he was about twenty or thirty meters away from the ground.
I looked back at the security guard.
Lin Xiao didn't say anything, just saluted, then turned his head and continued to move forward.
Seeing that Lin Xiao refused to listen, the security guard angrily picked up the intercom and said while evacuating the crowd:
"Hello, security room?"
"Uncle Wang, please speak."
"There's someone climbing illegally in Area 2. Report this to your superiors immediately and have them send more people over!"
"What? Uncle Wang, please repeat it again."
“Squeak, squeak, squeak… Someone is climbing the Pearl Tower!”
On the other end of the intercom was a young security guard.
At this moment, he was sitting at the console, playing Honor of Kings.
"What's going on? Isn't it another kid making trouble?"
However, judging from the tone of the voice, it seemed quite urgent.
In desperation, he still controlled the game character and hid in a bush.
Then he put his phone down, and while muttering to himself, he pointed all the cameras in the scenic area at the bottom of the TV tower and searched the screen carefully.
Looked for a while.
He finally found a "human figure" on a black and white monitor!
Seeing this, the young security guard slowly narrowed his eyes and looked carefully.
Next second.
The scene before my eyes.
He couldn't help but gasp!
