Chapter 113: The Escape Route

With herculean effort, Ouyang Jin managed to pull the first camel up to the hill, with the others following his example, each ascending the slope.

The eleven of them, along with their fifteen camels, all made it to the top of the hill, out of breath and exhausted. Not one person sat down to rest, instead staying alert to their surroundings.

They are surrounded by the cries of animals, their desperate wails eerily amplified in the pitch-black night. Even the aggressive howls of wolves sounded helpless. The predators, it seemed, never considered that they, too, could become prey.

On the screen of their drone, they could see that dense shadows have encapsulated the hill. All around, animals were falling, their numbers too many to count. It seems none who enters the circle of predators would survive - a horror more daunting than a pack of wolves on a hunt.

"What do we do now?" Everyone looked at the images that the drone was sending back, their hearts filled with fear.
