Sir Ares, Goodnight

Chapter 2446

Cole gritted his chattering teeth and said," Jay, this place might be infested with large beasts. Let's leave quickly."

The nip in the air was terrifying.

Jay saw that Cole's face was turning blue and he could not resist the cold any longer. Even if they saw a beast, they would not be able to subdue it in the state they were in now.

Jay pulled Cole as they quickly left the place.

Back at home, Angeline and Josephine had already prepared dinner and were waiting for them to return.

When Jay and Cole entered the house, Angeline noticed that their faces were unusually pale. She quickly added layers of clothes on them.

She turned on the stove again and brought it to the living hall.

Jay's and Cole's body temperature slowly warmed up.

Zayne asked them curiously, "Where did the two of you go, Jay? Why are your bodies so cold?"

Jay immediately turned his head to look at Cole. "What is that place?"

Cole said suspiciously, "That place is called Oolong Mountain. I used to play there a lot when I was a kid, but it wasn't so cold there back then."

A look of surprise appeared on Jay's handsome face. He said, "It seems that we need to explore that place again."

Cole said to him with lingering fear, "But the temperature there is so low that we can't go far at all. Even if we're lucky and get into the depths of it, what should we do: f we encounter that beast again?"

Jay could not think of a method as well.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

That night, something happened inside the stronghold.

Someone rushed over to Cole in a panic. When he saw Cole, the guy almost immediately knelt down and hugged his leg. With snot and tears streaming down his face, he said, "You're finally back, Young Master! I saw the lights on here, so I knew that you were back.

"Why'd you only come back now? Such a big thing has happened in Yorks Stronghold, but all of you weren't around. The villagers here were stuck without a leader and we had no idea what to do."

Cole touched the young man's face while trembling. He was relieved to feel that he was warm. He breathed a sigh of relief and said to Jay, "He's normal."

Jay questioned him patiently, "Tell me. What happened in Yorks Stronghold?"

The young man wiped away his tears and said while stammering, "I'd have to start from the sixth of last month..."

"The sixth of last month?" Angeline exclaimed in surprise.

Others looked at her curiously when Angeline continued sadly, "Isn't that the date our Robbie left us?"

Jay's heart sank slightly. He then agitatedly urged the young man to continue, "Continue the story."

The young man said, "That

afternoon, we suddenly heard a huge rumbling sound from Oolong Mountain as if the mountain was collapsing. Some people thought t was strange, so they went to find out what was going on.

Unexpectedly, those who went

became the walking dead when they

came back home. They couldn't

speak nor hear anything."

Cole suddenly thought of the deaf and mute old man. He added in a stirred up manner, "Were they cold to the touch as well?"

"Yes, yes!" said the young man.

Cole felt frightened as he and Jay had also gone to Oolong Mountain in the afternoon. He was worried if he would also become a walking dead. He hesitantly felt his body temperature and pinched himself.

Looking at his strange behavior, Jay comforted him. "Rest assured. Since we were able to successfully leave Oolong Mountain, it means we're unharmed."

Only then did Cole feel more relieved. He continued to ask the young man, "And then what?"

The young man said, "Perhaps since such a mysterious and strange thing had happened in Yorks Stronghold, it attracted the attention of explorers from outside.

Recently, a group of strangers came to the village. I could sense that those people shouldn't be messed with."
