Chapter 715: Six Difficult Days, the Team Finally Arrives! Part 1
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Time was nonexistent in the chilly mountains.
The New World’s atmosphere was changing day by day as countless disasters brewed in the silence.
However, Su Mo and his team traveling in the mountains had almost no perception of the happenings outside.
After losing the internet, electromagnetic waves, and a series of communication tools, even someone naive would have realized by now that returning to Earth was a dream.
Compared to the unrealistic Earth in their dreams, the wasteland under their feet gradually became their reality.
Human beings had returned to their primitive era where time was no longer relevant and passed by quickly.
As dawn and dusk passed by, the team traveled and climbed countless snow-capped mountains.
The Doomsday Calander quietly arrived at Month 5, Day 6.
…
On this day.
In the center of the mountain range, a snow-capped mountain that no one had set foot on for a long time finally ushered in their first travelers.
They were different from the caravans that would merely pass through in the past.
Although the group of travelers wore uniform clothes, the wear and tears on them were particularly noticeable upon closer inspection.
Their formation was a little disorganized and scattered. Most of them were worried that their feet would suddenly give out and fall directly into the deep valley below.
Footsteps were tired and heavy. Every step left a deep footprint on the snow, making one fear that they would not be able to lift them again;
There were countless traces of sewing repairs on the waistband used to link the whole team together, which seemed like it could break any time soon.
Regardless of the angle, the team looked exactly like refugees forced to leave their “homeland” in a panic because of the disaster.
Half an hour later.
Despite the occasional dangers, the team still crossed the mountainside and gradually picked up their speed with pure determination.
A platform at the peak of the mountain where they could rest was discovered.
The group reached the small platform of the snow-capped mountain just before the hottest noon sun.
Upon arrival, the difference between the team and the refugees gradually showed.
Most refugees would collapse to the ground and try to “cherish” the time they had to rest as much as possible.
Not thinking about defense, anyone who had the consciousness to think about what to eat later was considered one with strict discipline.
However, this team was different. Although they staggered as if their physical strength had reached their limits, they eventually found their footing and stood their ground firmly, maintaining the entire group formation.
After they removed the waistbands tied around them, it only took less than 30 seconds for them to set up a simple, 60-meter radius defensive circle along the place where they were setting up the camp.
Completing these two initial steps, two men with hunched statures and unshaved beards walked out of the team. They lay on the ground to inspect, then walked up to a high slope where the next mountain could be seen in the distance.
After a while, they turned around, ran back to the campsite, and shouted excitedly like wild men.
“Shelter leader, the last two rocky mountains are right ahead! We’ll be able to reach Origin Territory after we climb them!
“Finally, we’re almost there!”
The two almost exhausted all their strength after they shouted.
Their voices echoed through the valley as if a celebration was happening.
The other people below seemed to have been revived upon hearing their shouts.
Hands no longer unsteady.
Legs no longer trembled.
The previous exhaustion they had disappeared with the news in an instant.
It was like a miracle!
“Oh?
“There are only two mountains left? Are you sure you this time?”
A voice sounded, and a figure walked out of the team.
Upon a closer look, who else could it be other than Su Mo?!!
“We’re sure about it, shelter leader! I can guarantee!
“You can take a look over there!”
Liu Jie, who was in front, patted his chest and could not hide the joy in his voice even though his articulation was slurred.
Su Mo looked in the direction he pointed.
In the distance, some sunken potholes of considerable size could be vaguely seen among the mountains.
After careful observation and Guan Yuan’s confirmation, Su Mo’s body trembled as he knew the hardship was soon coming to pass!
Going up the mountain was difficult. Climbing down the mountain was hard, but it was much more complicated to climb snow-capped mountains.
In the past six days, although there were no major accidents, the team had only managed to climb five mountains on the way to the center of Great Mountain.
The process of their journey was extremely difficult.
On the first day, the team climbed over the last two mountains of Eight Peak Mountain.
The terrain was flat, and they had no accidents despite being fatigued due to their accumulated experience.
They had no casualties, and none of their expected dangerous situations occurred.
It was so smooth that everyone, including Su Mo, subconsciously ignored the possible obstacles they might encounter later in the journey.
At that moment, Su Mo even made a planned itinerary. According to their speed of two mountains a day, he expected the team to arrive near Origin Territory at noon of Month 5 Day 2.
However, their nightmare was just about to begin!
