Chapter 31 - Chapter 31: The Bright Light

That is to tie the rope to his body, and then jump out of the stone pillar, let those people pull the rope together, slowly pull him into the basket, he can also be rescued.

Mallory felt that this latter way more reliable, than the rope tied to the legs of the bed is much more reliable.

Of course, there are certain risks, he must take advantage of the wind direction did not change, the body quickly tied to the rope to do, or the wind direction changed, he has not yet tied, only half tied, it is likely to be pulled directly to the rope next to the stone pillar to fall to his death.

But what if it succeeds?

Success, he will be completely free from this damn stone pillar, and no longer have to go to the show will become a wax figure.

Worth the gamble!

Just as Mallory was about to attach the rope to his body, the wind at Stonehenge changed direction once again, and a strong, strange wind blew, pushing the hot air balloon hard in the direction of Stonehenge.

This time the hot air balloon close to the speed, Mallory watched the basket so straight into the stone pillar, can not help but incomparable panic, the narrow space on top of the stone pillar, he simply can not dodge.

This is not a rescue, this is a collision ah!

The pilot of the hot air balloon also realized that it was not good, and hurriedly increased the firepower to quickly pull up the height of the hot air balloon, in order to avoid the basket hit the stone pillar. But I don't know if it was because of the wind direction or his operation error, the basket under the balloon suddenly swayed and tilted very much, and finally still hit the stone pillar.

Mallory just quickly into the bottom of the bed, lying on the other side of the top of the stone pillar before the incomparable thrill to avoid the basket of this impact.

However, the basket itself is not so lucky.

After the impact with the top of the stone pillar, the basket was knocked askew, there are two people inside did not hold on, from the basket was thrown out, they screamed and fell from a height of more than a thousand meters.

After the two people were thrown out, the weight inside the balloon was out of balance, and the pilot of the balloon was just increasing the fire power to rise, and now the balloon quickly rose away from the stone pillar under the dual effect of the sudden increase in buoyancy and wind.

However, under the impact just now, the hot air balloon connecting the gas tank and the engine in the basket of the hose suddenly broke, the high-pressure gas inside the tank spewed out and met the flame above the engine and exploded, the basket in a moment into a sea of fire!

Several people in the basket screamed out loud, some people jumped out from the basket with their whole bodies on fire, and several others just kept screaming as the hot air balloon flew higher and higher.

Mallory, who crawled out from under the bed, watched as the balloon soared higher into the sky with black smoke, then the ball broke up and plummeted to the ground with the burning basket.

"Why is this happening?"

"They were just trying to save me!"

"FUCK!"

Mallory was in immense pain.

These people were trying to save him before they came closer, but they didn't expect this to happen!

Not only did they not save him, but they were all killed!

He was the one who killed them!

Mallory felt in his heart that the deaths of these people were not accidental.

Just like the last plane crash.

It was as if a mysterious force was behind it.

This mysterious force does not want Mallory to be saved.

People who tried to go near the stone pillar, it seems there is only one outcome.

That is death.

Although the hot air balloon enthusiasts were not able to save Mallory, but gave him a very valuable thing.

That is a bottle of mineral water.

Just a moment when the basket crashed over, Mallory although extremely nervous, but when dodging the basket, a hand still tightly grasping the bottle of mineral water, did not let the bottle of mineral water in the impact accidentally dropped.

This is a bottle of life-saving mineral water.

If the helicopter still does not come today and tomorrow, and the weather continues to be hot, this bottle of mineral water will probably be his only hope to survive until the next performance.

The value of this bottle of mineral water is much more than just the 600ML mineral water inside.

Mallory's days without water at the top of Stonehenge will be long in the future, and this bottle of water, even if it runs out, can help him store some drinking water on rainy and snowy days, allowing him to last longer between each performance, which also gives him a much better chance of surviving in this cruel world of acting.

Even in extreme cases, so that he can use it to catch his own excretion of water in order to recycle.

Mallory is reluctant to do this until the last minute.

The psychological barrier is really hard.

Of course, when it comes to that time, he has no choice.

A stunned Mallory carefully sat down on the edge of the crumbling bed.

He unscrewed the precious bottle of mineral water.

Then, took a small sip and quickly capped the bottle.

It felt so good to drink water.

I really want to drink this bottle of water in one gulp.

In the end Mallory held back.

One more sip before going to sleep, and then leave it for tomorrow.

Tomorrow will become more difficult.

To prevent the mineral water bottle from accidentally falling, Mallory stuffed it into the tattered quilt, and then rolled up the quilt stuck between the bed rails, this situation, the general shaking is impossible to shake it down.

...

Night.

Mallory was awakened by an extremely blinding bright light.

There was also a rumbling sound.

He didn't know what time it was.

He had gone to sleep after dark anyway, and after waking up in the night, he had no way of knowing what time it probably was.

But it shouldn't be too late, he felt like he hadn't slept long after he fell asleep.

The blindingly bright light was from the black helicopter.

Mallory was surprised to see the huge figure of the black helicopter in the night.

This is to pick him up to go to the film city?

He even wondered if he was dreaming.

How come they came late at night instead?

Is it a night scene?

Fully awake, Mallory was convinced that he was not dreaming, and then climbed up the ladder from the helicopter, and was pulled to the cabin with the ladder.

Mallory struggled to climb into the cabin, and then quickly rushed to the cabin placed in the box, open the box after taking out the bottle of drink inside, turned around and ready to throw the drink back to the top of the stone pillar.

Unfortunately, the hatch of the cabin closed quickly, not giving him the opportunity to achieve all this.

It looked like the plan to get himself an extra empty bottle of water storage while at the top of Stonehenge was not going to work.

The distance between the helicopter and the film city seemed a bit far.

After eating the bread and cookies from the box and drinking a drink, Mallory lay down and soon fell back into a deep sleep.

...

The helicopter landed in the same place as last time.

It was still on the tarmac next to the beach.

It seems that after each actor comes to the film city, the landing place may be separate and fixed.

Of course, this is only Mallory's guess, two samples are not enough to draw precise conclusions.

Unlike last time, it was late at night when the helicopter brought Mallory here.

After getting off the helicopter, Mallory ran straight towards the film city.

After arriving at the street, despite his hunger, Mallory did not rush into the restaurant, but first ran to the terminal on the street.

Opened up and checked his account, then waited to see if any newbie quests or the like popped up.

If there was, you could earn 10 points!

It was comparable to a gig.

Unfortunately, there wasn't.

After waiting at the terminal for a while, Mallory went to the restaurant anyway.

The time on the restaurant wall was 10:30 pm.

The countdown was only half an hour, and it looked like Mallory had to be on set by 11:00.

A late night shoot.

What kind of film could it be?

Mallory had a bad feeling about it.
