Chapter 76

Gunther also agreed with Gabriel but wanted Hailey in Oliver’s group.

However, Hailey spoke before he could say anything, saying, “Dad, I’ll go with you.”

Gunther nodded. Gabriel was on the same team as him. Among all of them, Gabriel had the most experience and the most comprehensive knowledge. Although he was old, he was a veteran. It made Gunther feel at ease to be with him.

Louis took the initiative to divide the teams. “I will be on the same team as Mr. Fox. Curtis and Jack are with me. Our team has an extra person. The other two will go with Isaac.”

Then, he untied the rope and tied it together again according to the groups. There were six people in Gunther’s team, four in Isaac’s and Oliver’s.

After they were divided into groups, each group had its own formation.

Louis would lead at the front of Gunther’s group, followed by another bodyguard, then Gunther, Hailey, Gabriel, and finally Jack.

Isaac remained at the forefront while Wayne led his group, followed by Oliver and Sienna, and Simon was at the back.

“Let’s go!” Louis said and led the team. The other two groups also set out to different positions.

The three groups had agreed that each leader would cut down a branch and use it as a mark every five steps before they set

out.

In Oliver’s team, Wayne cut down the branches and marked them. It was already four o’clock in the afternoon. The sun above the fog over his head gradually set, and the fog grew larger.

Oliver held Sienna tightly. The fog began to thicken at this time, and even Wayne’s back was concealed. He had to depend on the rope around his waist to locate the others.

“Mr. Eastwood, stop.”

Wayne suddenly stopped and said to Oliver, “Mr. Eastwood, come and see this.”

Oliver, Sienna, and Simon all walked forward. Wayne squatted on the ground to look at a branch.

Oliver and the rest two also squatted down and looked at it carefully. It was the first branch Wayne had marked before they set out with [IV] and [1] engraved on it.

Oliver’s heart skipped a beat, and exclaimed inwardly, “We’re back to the starting point again!”

The others thought, ‘Since we did so, what about Gunther, Isaac, and the others?

If we return to the starting point after setting out, what about the other two groups?

Will they return to the starting point too?’

The four looked at each other, thinking about the same problem.

Then, they listened to the surroundings, wondering if the other two groups had also returned to the starting point.

However, they couldn’t hear anything except a faint gush of wind.

Oliver stopped and shouted, “Ms. Fox. Mr. Fox. Isaac. Can you hear me? Can you hear me?”

After Oliver shouted, his voice echoed into the distance but there was no response.

Sienna shook her head and said, “Oliver, there’s no reply. I can’t hear them!”

Oliver suddenly became anxious and was inexplicably worried about Hailey.

“If everyone will return to the origin after setting out, why can’t we hear the other two groups?” he wondered. Oliver shouted again for a while, but there was still no response. In the end, he panickily called out Hailey’s name. Seeing Oliver’s anxious expression, Sienna instantly felt jealous and wondered, “Is he so worried about Hailey?”

It was impossible for Sienna not to be annoyed seeing her boyfriend looking out for another woman. She snorted and shook off Oliver’s hand angrily.

However, Oliver clenched her hand tighter and didn’t let it go.

The sky was getting darker, and the fog became thicker. Wayne asked Oliver anxiously, “Mr. Eastwood, why don’t we set up a tent now? It will be more troublesome to do it when it gets dark.”

Oliver became more anxious when he saw the thick fog. He stared at the endless fog in a daze.

Suddenly, an identification message appeared in his mind.

[Enchanting Fog is created by Enchanting Array, which causes hallucinations and interference with electronic devices and signals. The affecting area of Enchanting Array is the outer perimeter of Enchanting Hollow which is 0.15 miles wide and 54 miles long, taking the form of a circle.]

The overall shape and safety route map of Enchanting Array were also displayed in his mind.

Oliver was stunned and thought, “I can’t believe there’s an identification message after looking at the fog.”

He had always thought that he could only identify objects but never expected it to also work on the misty fog.

Oliver was stunned and hurriedly read the map of Enchanting Array in his mind.

Instantly, a map of a large circle appeared in his mind. The map had thin red and green lines and many red dots.

There were annotations next to the dots, such as visual hallucination, auditory hallucination, and Enchanting Route…

The red lines indicated routes that could lead to hallucinations and dangers, while the green ones implied safety routes.

However, there was only one line in green, and the rest were all red.

There were also some blue dots that were moving.

The blue dots were scattered in three areas. Two clumps were moving while one was stationary.

There were six and four moving blue dots in two areas, while four stationary ones were in the remaining area.

When Oliver looked at the blue dots, his heart suddenly skipped a beat. He thought, “Aren’t these blue dots us?”

Oliver started walking a few steps at the thought. As soon as he moved, one of the four still dots started to move. When he stopped, the dot also stopped moving.

Oliver then asked Wayne and Simon to take some steps. After that, he confirmed they were the blue dots.

“I understand it now!”

Oliver was overjoyed and hurriedly told Wayne and Simon, “Untie the rope. I’ll lead the way. Follow me!”

Neither Wayne nor Simon knew what Oliver meant but did as he said.

After untying the rope and re-fastening it, Oliver grabbed Sienna’s hand and walked ahead. He looked at the green line on the map in his mind.

The blue dots moved along a green line that was 0.15 miles long. Oliver held Sienna’s hand and crutches in another as he navigated his way out. He was following the green line in his mind accurately.

All Sienna could see was the fog. It was almost six o’clock now, and the sky was dark. She couldn’t see Oliver holding her hand clearly, let alone what was in front or around her.

Wayne and Simon listened to their surroundings closely while they followed Oliver. They would react quickly if anything happened.

Oliver didn’t walk fast as he navigated his way for 0.15 miles. It took him about 15 minutes to reach the end of the green line

in his mind.

When Oliver stepped out of the circle, his eyes suddenly lit up. A scenic view appeared in front of him.

Sienna followed him out, then Wayne and Simon did too. They were taken aback by the bright and clear view before them.
