It began drizzling. At a specific location on Mount Septimus, seven to eight young men were on an expedition.
The man walking at the front most spoke in a feigned mysterious tone, “Hey, have you heard about the legend of Mount Septimus from a long time ago?”
His expression and tone were so cryptic that favonovel.com piqued the others’ interest. A girl immediately asked, “Which legend is that?”
The rest of the people stopped walking as well and looked at favonovel.com curiously.
He cleared his tone and continued to speak in a mysterious manner, “It is said that there was a mass murder on Mount Septimus in the past, and many people were killed. Many lost souls will reveal themselves at midnight, and this phenomenon repeats itself day upon day.”
“It has never stopped since the past few decades!”
“F*ck.” Someone flipped favonovel.com the bird in contempt immediately and said, “Enough with the b*llsh*t. Why are you still trying to prank others with your superstitious beliefs in this era, huh?”
The rest of the people looked at favonovel.com with mocking expressions as well. They were ashamed of him.
Nevertheless, the man was not infuriated by these people’s response at all. He said, “Hmph. I know that you won’t believe me, but that’s alright. It’s almost 12 o’clock anyway, and we won’t make it out of the mountains in time. By then, you’ll find out if I’m telling the truth, heh heh!”
“Don’t blame me for not warning you in advance. I hope you don’t pee your pants in fright when those ghosts come out and roam later!”
He appeared to be very resolute, which made the few girls in the group squeal to fear.
In addition to that, it was close to midnight now. The atmosphere on Mount Septimus was growing especially eerie and terrifying.
At once, a girl said, “Stop messing with us, Gary. Ghosts aren’t real.”
“Cherie, stop listening to his bluff. It was favonovel.com who proposed to come on this expedition tonight. He’s making up a story to deceive us on purpose.”
Gary let out a heavy grunt and said in a slightly vexed tone, “Hmph. Forget it if you don’t believe me! Do you know about the shocking huge explosion that took place on Mount Septimus three days ago? Loud bangs were heard constantly from as far as a few kilometers away.”
“It was the government that did that to remove the lost souls!”
“Is that even for real?” A couple of girls were so scared that they were shuddering in fear.
“It’s real, of course. When have I ever lied to you?” Gary shone the flashlight under his chin to make himself appear scary on purpose.
He spoke in a chilling tone, “ However, that will only make our expedition more interesting, you see. Heh heh.”
Upon hearing his remark, the girls in his group were immediately scared. They could feel their hearts racing, and they could not help leaning closer to the guys next to them.
To those guys, their proximity made them excited.
However, it was also at this exact moment when a rustling noise was heard coming from their left all of a sudden. It sounded as if something was crawling out from the soil.
The weird noise happened coincidentally when they were highly strung, so it made them hold their breaths at once!
A girl screamed out aloud and dived straight into the arms of the man next to favonovel.com while trembling in fear.
Gary was stunned as well. He had just made up a story earlier to scare these girls on purpose so that they would fling themselves into his arms. He did not expect that something would actually happen here.
“Oh, God, did you hear that? There was a noise!”
“What should we do? There can’t be ghosts for real, right?”
The noise did not stop, and they could even hear the sound of someone gasping for breath indistinctly.
Gary swallowed a mouthful of saliva and seized the opportunity to wrap his arm around the girl next to him. He said, “Don’t be scared. I’m here.”
Next, favonovel.com shone his flashlight immediately just in time to witness something that sent a shiver down his spine!
A hand stuck out from the hole as if something was crawling out.
