Chapter 428
However, the roars of the stone beasts behind them seemed to grow closer and fiercer. They had probably found
their dead friend and were now getting revenge.
"Oh no, they're catching up."
Larry glanced down the mountain to see the stone beasts with glowing green eyes running in their direction. The
four-legged beasts could run much faster than the human party.
His words startled Linda, who accidentally slipped and began to slide downward. "Ah—"
Fortunately, Vania acted quickly as she grabbed Linda. "Hold on."
Because of gravity, Linda's entire body was dangling in the air. Just then, Larry and Hanson came over together and
grabbed her. "Hold on. Don't move. We'll pull you up."
Luckily, Linda wasn't too heavy, so they heaved her up within minutes.

Despite the cover of her clothes, her arm was grazed, and her skin began peeling. "I'm fine, Boss. Let's keep going."
She could feel that it was just minor injuries, and none of her insides were damaged.
"Awoo!"
However, at that moment, an abrupt howl sounded behind them. It was as if the beasts were saying, 'Want to
leave? Not so fast.'
Hanson and Larry immediately stood in front of Vania and Linda. "Don't panic. Hold on to your belongings."
They could still fend off the beasts with their weapons, and it would be ideal if they could scare the beasts off.
"The one at the front is their leader. We'll be safe once we overpower it."
As soon as the leader succumbed, their subordinates definitely wouldn't dare to come forward. At that moment,
they were already aiming all their weapons at the leader.
"Awoo!"
With another howl, the stone beast began to slowly advance on Hanson and the others. Hanson planted his feet on
the ground. When he caught the timing, he whispered, "Ready… fire."
Under his command, the four of them began throwing daggers and spraying anti-beast sprays, among other
weapons, all at the pack of stone beasts.
At the sudden attack, the pack of stone beasts froze on the spot for a while, their glowing green eyes trained on
Vania and the others.
If this had happened in broad daylight, Hanson would definitely have had a chance to escape. Because it was pitch
black right now, they could only fight.
However, before they could fire their second wave, a stone beast suddenly went berserk and pounced toward
Hanson, ignoring its leader's commands.
"Awoo!"
The four aimed their attacks at it, but this stone beast ignored them, bent on bringing at least one of them down

Vania was shocked. "Hanson!"
Without another thought, she stood in front of Hanson yet again, waving the thing in her hand and flinging it at the
stone beast.
But now, they no longer had the energy to defend themselves. The other stone beasts, more than ten in number,
pounced on the humans immediately.
"Hanson…"
"Darling…"
Because Vania was standing in front of Hanson, she was pushed off the cliff by the stone beasts. Hanson grabbed
her and fell along with her. Larry and Linda couldn't hold their fort and were shoved off the cliff as well.
However, no one had expected the other side of the cliff to loom even higher above ground. Instead, it looked like a
gaping hole leading into the abyss.
The instant they began plummeting down, they lost consciousness.
Three days later, Vania cracked open her bleary eyes as she looked around her in confusion.
"You're awake." Before she could make sense of her surroundings, she heard a soft and childish voice speaking.
