Chapter 77
In the previous second, Oliver and the three were still in the dark and foggy mountainous area. However, in the next second, they realized they had suddenly stepped into a picturesque, peaceful, clear area.
What was even stranger was that as soon as Oliver and the others entered this area, their minds instantly cleared, and they felt comfortable all over. The initial dizziness they felt had completely disappeared.
At a glance, the fog behind them was like an endless wall that could stretch on forever. In contrast, the scenery inside the fog wall was a wonderland with gentle hills, flowing rivers, tall mountains, and deep canyons. The scenery was idyllic, without the aura of the hustle and bustle of the world outside.
“What… What’s going on here?” Sienna asked Oliver curiously as she looked around. Wayne and Simon were also very surprised. They could never have expected that there was such a beautiful place hidden in the fog:
They wondered how Oliver knew about this and got here
Then, Oliver hurriedly told Sienna, Wayne, and Simon, “Just wait here. Don’t go into the fog again. I will get the rest.”
Sienna and Wayne both stopped him nervously. “No… Let’s go together.”
Oliver shook his head and said, “Don’t worry. I know how to get there and replace them. After all, I did manage to bring all of you here.”
Eventually, the three were persuaded. Otherwise, how would Oliver get here if he didn’t know about this secret location and the way to this place?
Oliver waved his hand, picked up the walking stick, and walked back into the fog. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared.
Looking worried, Sienna stretched out her hand and made a grabbing gesture.
Wayne hurriedly comforted her. “Ms. Kaiserman, don’t worry. When a dozen of us entered this place in the morning, we couldn’t replace our way out for seven to eight hours! When Mr. Eastwood came and led us out of the fog, he took only about ten minutes. He must have his method. So, don’t worry!”
In Enchanting Fog, Oliver followed the green line in his mind as usual to approach the blue dots.
Meanwhile, Isaac’s group would always return to their original point in about one hour but never saw the other two groups. No matter how they shouted, they could not see or hear others’ voices. The four of them were shocked and frightened.
Because Isaac and the other three were frightened, they discussed and agreed to withdraw. But after walking the path several times, they found they couldn’t replace a way out. In fact, they just circled in the same area.
Gunther’s
was group the same. After over an hour, they would return to their original point. Similarly, they couldn’t see the other two groups of people, either.
Hailey couldn’t help but worry about Oliver. After she shouted, she listened carefully but could not hear anyone’s reply.
When Gunther was tired, Louis ordered everyone to stop and rest before huddling together.
Gunther coughed a few times and spat a mouthful of blood.
Instantly, Hailey was terrified. With tears in her eyes, she took the pills and water from the small cross-body bag with trembling hands and fed them to her father.
Gunther took the medicine with some difficulty, and he looked exhausted. Looking at her haggard daughter, he couldn’t help but stroke her hair and said in a trembling voice, “Hailey, I… I didn’t want to bring you here. I actually don’t want to bring you here!”
Hailey choked and said, “Dad, stop it. It’s not your fault. Just take your medicine, all right? We will go back. When we get home, I’ll listen to you. I will marry anyone you want me to. I will always listen to you…”
“Silly girl!” Gunther lovingly stroked his daughter’s head and continued, “I understand now. You have your own life to live and the person you want to be with. I shouldn’t impose my thoughts on you. Julian… He doesn’t deserve you. You don’t need to get married to him, and I know I can’t go back. Hailey, when you return, replace a young fellow you like, date him, get married, and have children. But… Unfortunately, I won’t be able to see that day…”
Gabriel was also in tears. He knew his old friend couldn’t make it back anymore.
Hailey couldn’t help crying on Gunther’s lap, and Louis didn’t know what to say.
Hailey cried for a while before raising her head, tears pooling in her eyes. The fog in front of her was so thick that she couldn’t even see Gunther’s face clearly, making her feel sad and despair..
Suddenly, a hand appeared over her shoulder and rested there. Hailey was startled and turned around but could only see a blurred figure. Frightened, she blocked it with her arm and shouted, “Who’s there?”
“Me, Ms. Fox.” the vague figure in the fog called out.
“You’re… Oliver?”
Hailey couldn’t see clearly, but the voice and tone were familiar, so she blurted the question absentmindedly.
“Yes, it’s me!” the voice replied again, and then someone grabbed her hand.
Because the feeling and warmth from the hand were too familiar, Hailey couldn’t help but clench her hand tighter.
“Is it an illusion or a dream?” she wondered.
As Oliver pulled her and walked, he said, “Everyone! Please stand up and follow me.”
Everyone was overjoyed when they heard Oliver’s voice.
After all, the three teams couldn’t get together or walk out of the fog. Moreover, their leader had become sick and vomited blood again, his health deteriorating rapidly. Therefore, everyone fell into despair.
Fortunately, Oliver suddenly appeared at this time. No matter what the reason was, his appearance, at the very least, symbolized the end of the situation where the people of the three groups could not meet. No matter if they could leave this place or not, the news of Oliver’s arrival was enough to make them feel overjoyed.
Hailey was the happiest and most relaxed person at this moment. She let Oliver hold her hand and lead her forward. She thought, “Even if I have to walk through hell, I would gladly do it as long as Oliver holds my hand.”
However, Oliver didn’t lead her to hell. More than ten minutes later, her vision cleared up, and she suddenly saw a picturesque scenery before her. Immediately after that, she saw the angel-like Sienna, Wayne, and Simon. They all gathered around when they saw Oliver.
As the people behind Hailey came out one after another with dispirited expressions, they couldn’t help being stunned after seeing this beautiful scene.
Oliver let go of her hand and said to the crowd, “We’ll take a break. I’ll get Isaac’s group here as well.”
When Oliver disappeared into the fog wall, Hailey belatedly regained her senses. She reached out and shouted, “Be careful…
Nevertheless, Hailey could not grab Oliver. After turning around, she saw a pair of beautiful eyes staring at her. It was
Sienna’s.
The eyes of the two beautiful girls contained emotions that could not be hidden.
That was especially true for Hailey. She was hiding it before but couldn’t anymore after this day’s life-and-death crisis, where Oliver swooped in and saved her from the desperate situation. Thus, the love for him in her heart had erupted unreservedly.
However, Gabriel and Gunther were too preoccupied to notice the girls’ feelings. In fact, the men were both shocked and curious. How could Oliver suddenly appear in front of them and take them to the clear area outside this fog?
Gunther waved and asked Wayne and Simon, “What’s going on? Oliver… How did he know how to cross the fog area?”
This question was not only what he wanted to ask, but everyone else wanted to know.
However, Wayne and Simon were both clueless. They both spread their hands to signal that they knew nothing.
