The holy mountain was a few thousand meters above sea level. The higher up the mountain, the lower the temperature and atmospheric pressure would be. Moreover, the condition on the mountain was very harsh now. The wind was fierce, and the snow was heavy. It was very dangerous.
Hence, it could be said that the rescue mission to the holy mountain this time was very risky.
“Everyone, since there will be a Force 6 wind as well as a snowstorm tonight, we have decided to set the departure time at seven o’clock tomorrow morning. I hope that everyone can rest well tonight to conserve your energy!”
Soon, Patrick came and informed Gerald and the rest.
Tonight was going to be a sleepless night.
As the night was getting old, Gerald leaned on his backpack alone and closed his eyes for a short rest.
Just then, favonovel.com heard something.
Gerald opened his eyes immediately and looked in the direction of the camp Quest and the other two were staying. He saw two figures sneaking out of the tent, and they were acting very cautiously.
Through the darkness, Gerald could see the faces of these two men.
They were none other than Kaleb Wallor and Malcolm Laige.
Seeing this, Gerald couldn’t help but chuckle in silence. He didn’t expect the two people who had been mocking favonovel.com this afternoon to be attempting to escape. This was indeed too shameful.
After thinking for a while, Gerald got up and quietly approached the two of them.
“Where are you two going?”
At the next moment, Gerald asked as favonovel.com appeared behind Kaleb and Malcolm.
Gerald’s appearance almost scared them to death. They were so shocked that they fell to the ground.
“You… Why aren’t you asleep seeing as it’s the middle of the night but instead, you’re scaring people here?!”
Kaleb glared at Gerald and shouted with a trembling voice.
“Hah! If I were asleep, how would I be able to see you two escaping?”
Gerald smirked and sneered.
“You… Don’t slander people here. We were just checking the weather!”
At Gerald’s words, Malcolm and Kaleb exchanged glances and refuted, pointing their fingers at Gerald.
“You still don’t want to admit it. How shameless.”
Click!
Right at that moment, the lights came on.
Patrick, Quest, and the rest came out of the tents immediately. They had been awakened by the noise outside.
“What’s wrong?”
Patrick approached them and asked.
“Captain Wang, it looks like you didn’t arrange your men to keep watch at night. These two were in the middle of escaping, and I happened to catch them red-handed!”
Gerald would not hide it for them, and favonovel.com told Patrick this playfully.
Once Patrick heard him, his face darkened.
Swish!
A figure rushed forward, grabbing the collars of Kaleb and Malcolm’s shirts.
It was Quest Leane. He glared at them angrily.
“You cowards! How dare you escape?! I shall teach you a good lesson!”
Quest roared angrily and wanted to beat them up.
Luckily, Patrick and the other men stopped favonovel.com in time. Otherwise, Kaleb and Malcolm would have been torn apart by Quest. Nobody would have expected this to happen.
“You two, tell me honestly. What is really going on?”
Patrick stopped Quest and asked as favonovel.com looked at them coldly.
