Chapter 978


    The girl was right. It was dangerous for us to walk in the mountains at night. When we first entered


    the mountains, we could still find traces of humans having been here before, but they were no


    longer visible at this point. That meant that the probability of us encountering beasts was much


    higher.


    If we saw footprints of the beasts during the day, we could still think of a way to avoid them, but it


    was hard to see footprints of beasts at night. Hence, it was best to find a cave to rest for the night.


    Shannon stopped in her tracks and looked at us. "Let''s find a cave and call it a night. We’ll continue


    our journey at the stroke of daylight."


    We were probably in God’s favor because we saw a cave less than 300 feet away. Although it was


    not very big, it was enough to amodate several of us.

    It had been a long day and coupled with the constant walking, all of us were famished. However,


    none of us brought anything with us when we escaped into the mountains, so we could only endure


    the hunger.


    Apart from Shannon, I did not know the names of the four other girls. Since none of us could sleep,


    we started introducing ourselves to each other.


    All four girls came from different ces. One of the girls was the tallest among us, and her name


    was Nina Fameli. She was from South Riverton. Another girl was a ssic beauty called Holly


    Consel from South Tinkertown. Her face brought the word ''beauty'' to mind.


    The two other girls were from South County-Thaddea Zameus and Dazaray Timber. These two


    ladies wereparatively less attractive than the previous two girls but were considered stunning


    among ordinary girls.


    I had no idea why those people captured these young and beautiful girls if they were not doing it for


    the money.


    We chatted for about half an hour and nned to take a rest. Just as I was about to fall asleep, I


    heard someone praying.


    I opened my eyes and saw Dazarey praying.


    Although she was praying softly, the forest was eerily silent and frightening. Most importantly, this


    could easily attract beasts.


    Nina and Holly looked at her with fear written all over their faces, but they did not say anything.


    Shannon could not help but say, "Missy, if you want to pray, can you at least pray in your heart? Do


    you know that what you''re doing can easily attract beasts?"


    Dazaray opened her eyes to look at Shannon and said with a face full of displeasure, "God will only


    protect u s and not hurt us."


    Shannon was extremely speechless. She rolled her eyes at her and said no more.


    We all thought that Dazaray would stop praying, but she started praying again.


    Shannon finally could not stand it anymore and scolded her angrily, "Go out and pray to attract the


    beasts all you want. Let’s all die here together."


    Dazaray nced at her and mmed up.


    The other three girls remained silent the whole time with their heads bowed. Thissted until dawn.


    The sound of birds chirping in the forest was particrly crisp and clear. When I woke up, only


    Shannon and I remained in the cave.


    Shannon was still asleep, so I woke her up.


    She opened her eyes and looked around her in a daze.


    I thought she looked really beautiful. Her face was tiny and delicate. Perhaps she hadid on her


    side for too long, one side of her face was crimson, which made her look even prettier and fairer.


    I stood up and dusted my clothes, saying, "It''s dawn."


    Shannon nodded and yawned, asking, "Where are they?"


    I pointed to the outside of the cave and said, "They all went out."


    Shannon smiled but did not say anything. She got up and prepared to go out.


    Perhaps she had been lying down for too long, her legs felt a little numb. She fell to the side when


    she got up
