Hua Changle took a deep breath, turned around, and stuck out her foot.
The most difficult parts of the cliff are the top section and the middle section.
At the very top, this section of the cliff face is concave, like a half-eaten moon.
The middle section is almost completely vertical; if you get stuck there, neither up nor down, you're doomed.
Hua Changle fell slowly and cautiously.
She wasn't good at rock climbing. The combat department's curriculum included rock climbing classes, but these were mainly for training body control and technique, with limited class time and mostly covering basic theory.
In addition, this is an unknown canyon cliff, completely different from the route specifically chosen in class.
Therefore, Hua Changle put in a lot of effort in the upper section where there were few opportunities to exploit.
Large beads of sweat dripped from her forehead; the sun was unusually strong today.
Hua Changle looked down and, after confirming the location of a semi-embedded safety turret, let go and jumped down, landing on the turret.
The fort provided her with a platform to catch her breath.
She's only gone down one-fifth of the way.
Hua Changle took a breath and continued downwards with renewed vigor.
The gun emplacements, the hollows, the weathered traces, the tree branches... all became her aids as she descended.
She glanced up briefly; the canyon above seemed like the gaping maw of a monster about to close. And she slowly sank into this abyss.
About three-fifths of the way down, everything below became clear.
Hua Changle then realized that someone was standing below, watching her climb down.
