In the woods late at night, Kelvin continues to walk with Lucy. The forest at night is not easy to walk through and is very dangerous. There were thorns everywhere and the ground was full of holes.
After walking for quite a while, Lucy felt her arms ache. Although the basket was not too heavy, over 20 catties, his arms would not get used to it after lifting it for a long time.
"Give me the basket". Kelvin stretched out his hand and said.
"It's okay, I can still hold on". Lucy shook her head and said.
Kelvin said, "Give it to me. If you carry that basket again, you probably won't be able to raise your hand tomorrow".
"Thank you for your concern". Lucy gives the basket to Kelvin and soon feels much more relaxed, but he takes the torch and turns it on for Kelvin.
The two continued walking in the forest, yet they did not meet the mark left behind by Nora anymore. Maybe they missed it.
Lucy watched from time to time. He lived like a year, feeling that every minute and second was very long. He just wants to find his sister now.
Gah!
Gah!
Suddenly, there was a strange howl in the sky. These sounds are scary.
Lucy looked up at the sky, she was a bit worried.
"Don't be afraid. It was just the screams of some birds. That's not dangerous". Kelvin looked up at the sky and comforted.
Lucy shook her head slightly and said, "I'm not afraid because my mind is full of Nora".
"You guys are really good sisters". Kelvin.
"My mother and my sister were six years adrift. Our parents died early, so my sister was almost raised by me." Lucy says.
Kelvin was a little surprised. Although he was familiar with both of them, he had never heard of these things.
Lucy continued: "When I was eighteen, Nora was only twelve years old. That year, our parents died in a car accident, leaving behind a company that was about to go bankrupt, as well as debts. I raised Nora and took over the company. Unfortunately, no one could understand this heartache."
"You're a really strong woman". Kelvin sincerely admired him.
He took over his parents' company at the age of 18. However, Lucy's family's condition was excellent, so her starting point was extremely high. Even if the company was going bankrupt and owed a lot of money, and a different circle of contacts, Lucy was different from the common man.
It's similar to the farmers. Even if they live well, they only come into contact with the land, cows and sheep in their families. It is impossible to make a lot of money, as they have no contact with finance and have a blank understanding of social development trends.
However, the son of a wealthy merchant family was different.
They had fun because they had been in contact with him since childhood.
The two chatted while walking. Kelvin deliberately searches for some topics to distract Lucy, so she doesn't worry too much.
After walking through several large trees, Kelvin felt his legs soft. The ground here is relatively soft, and it should be the edge of the swamp. If he continued walking forward, it would definitely be extremely dangerous, because once he fell into the swamp, he would drown even to death in the swamp.
"Let's turn around". Kelvin.
"Good". Lucy nodded and was about to twist, but she suddenly looked at the ground and said, "Sprints, these are Nora's footprints".
Kelvin looked down. These were indeed Nora's footprints, as there were rows of cylindrical objects in her soles. This was the only previous structure of sports shoes. Later, this type of shoe is not produced, but some mountaineers still like to wear this type of shoe because it is anti-skid. And some people who practice martial arts also like to wear these shoes.
"The land here is relatively soft, so it leaves Nora's footprints. If we follow these footprints, we might be able to find them". Kelvin.
"Good". Lucy nodded
Because as long as he followed the footsteps, he might be able to find his sister.
Because there was a swamp nearby, Kelvin did not walk quickly and carefully observed the surroundings.
He hoped to get through this area early, otherwise it would be very dangerous.
Nora's footprints on the ground deepened, as the ground grew softer. Fortunately, today there is no rainstorm, otherwise it is more dangerous.
Because when there is a rainstorm, the swamp area will increase, and the miasma will also appear, and the miasma is toxic, once this gas appears, it is easy to make people fall into madness or coma.
"Be careful". Kelvin suddenly looked forward and reminded, as the front was a dark pond.
The water in this pool is very dark, probably due to a lot of black mud.
As for how big the pool was, it could not be seen clearly because it was night time.
The swamp terrain is very complicated. There was mud and a large and small pond. Once they fall into the pool, they will fall directly into the mud.
Because under the layer of water on the surface there is actually thick mud.
"The water is very dark, and it smells". Lucy wanted to cover her nose.
"The mud in this kind of place has bred countless bacteria for at least thousands or even tens of thousands of years, so it's only natural that it smells. Let's go around here and move on". Kelvin said indifferently.
"Kelvin, look, sign again". Lucy suddenly pointed not far away, There was a sign there, and it was left behind by Nora.
Kelvin took two steps forward. When he saw the sign, he looked serious.
Lucy also looks serious, as this is a sign of danger.
They have discussed that if there is a danger, it will give an additional stone on the triangle sign.
In front of them, there just happened to be one more stone. This was Nora's reminder to them, reminding them to pay attention to the nearby danger.
"Quick away". Kelvin stands up and prepares to get Lucy out of here quickly. In this hellish place, any danger would be extremely terrifying.
Bluk bluk!
Suddenly, Kelvin heard a movement behind him, as if something was approaching them.
He turned back to look, and his face was suddenly startled, as a pair of tentacles actually appeared in the dark swamp in the pond behind him.
This pair of tentacles quickly extended, one towards her and the other towards Lucy.
Crazy one! What kind of monster is this? Kelvin's never seen it before. Could it be that octopus lived in the swamp mud?
However, this world was huge and there were many strange monsters, and what one would normally know was only tigers, Lions, Wolves, and Il.
But many things that grow in the shadows are rarely seen and never heard.
"Be careful". Kelvin reminded anxiously.
