Chapter 423

Chapter 427

Linda took out a marking spray and made a mark on the tree they chose.

An hour later, Larry said in wonder, "Look, the road ahead of us is flat now."

There were no huge trees here, and only some small tufts of grass grew on the ground. The grass curved its way upward, and it looked like a path.

"The equipment seems to be working now." Linda looked at the gadget and the GPS equipment in her hand, both of which were pointing in the same direction. "We should go right up."

"Okay."

The five children at home were staring at the computer screen together.

"James, why can't we see Mommy's location?" Jack asked in an anxious tone.

"I didn't expect the situation in the mountain to be a hundred times more complicated than I imagined." James never stopped laboring at the controls. However, the positioning signal still flickered on and off. Even if it appeared, it would disappear again within seconds.

All five children kept a firm stare at the computer, fearing that they might miss any message Vania sent them.

Meanwhile, the party of four had been following the path for more than an hour. Just then, Linda suddenly exclaimed, "Boss, we hit a dead end."

They looked and saw a cliff standing in front of them, blocking their way. The sun gradually went down, bringing the temperature in the mountains down with it.

"We'll set up our camp here for now. We'll continue in the morning." Hanson observed their surroundings. There was a cave at the foot of the cliff, which was the ideal place to spend the night.

"Awoo!"

As soon as Hanson finished speaking, the cries of beasts immediately sounded around them. The party immediately prepared themselves for battle, scanning their surroundings.

"It might be a group of beasts. We have to get across the cliff ahead of us."

According to Hanson's calm analysis, they mustn't stay here for long. The party immediately pulled out weapons for self-defense and also some lighting devices, then strode forward.

"Ah-"

"Darling" Hanson exclaimed in a low voice. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Find_Nøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

They had just taken a few steps when a dark shadow leaped from the bushes. Without another thought, Vania stood in front of Hanson to protect him.

Hanson grabbed her and pulled her into his safe embrace. He looked at her with a complicated gaze, saying, "Remember, I'll always protect you."

As soon as he finished speaking, he swiftly leaped into the air and delivered a lethal kick to the dark shadow hiding in the bushes beside them.

The dagger in his hand struck forward, and the monster instantly died.

"It's a stone beast."

This type of beast normally roamed the primordial forests, and they liked to live in groups. They also moved around in packs as well.

Now that one had made its appearance, more of its companions would be here soon.

Vania was startled. "Let's go right away."

Even though their weapons were advanced, they wouldn't be able to win against a pack of stone beasts. If they stayed here any longer, they would definitely be under attack.

The others didn't even hesitate as they strode forward with their weapons and lighting device firmly in hand. However, there were continuous rustles coming from the bushes, and it was quite terrifying.

Going over a cliff wasn't an easy feat, especially when carried out in the evening because it would only get dimmer by the hour.

Vania breathed in sharply. Her pants were already ripped from the sharp stones, and now the outcrop was grazing against her flesh. She couldn't help but hiss as she breathed.

"Darling, let me see your injury."

Hanson was at the back, protecting the others. He instantly frowned when he heard Vania's voice.

"I'm fine, don't worry about it. Let's keep going." The top of the mountain was in sight.

At that moment, the four of them were more or less injured. Also, they had been in the mountains for a whole day, so they were completely exhausted.
