Chapter 745: Chapter 631 The Call of Jiger Mountain
In the study, Rose Madeline, who was imrsed in researching materials, seed sowhat fatigued. She reached out to remove the glasses perched on her nose bridge, but just as she moved, her expression shifted abruptly as if she had sensed sothing, and she quickly turned to look outside the estate.
Beside her, the assisting “Lady Grace,” noticing her mistress’s expression, silently crossed through the wall and drifted out.
After a short while, Grace returned.
She shook her head at Rose, indicating that everything was normal.
Rose Madeline, holding an ancient to, pondered for a mont and didn’t continue to read, instead putting the book down.
As her assistant, Grace had operational authority over many Curios and Defense Forbidden Techniques within the estate. Logically, Rose should have been reassured by her confirmation.
However, for so reason, Rose felt an inexplicable unease.
…
In the Western Federation’s Central Mountain Area, lie the continuous Jiger Mountain Range, sprawling like an unfathomable prehistoric giant beast sprawled upon the earth. Along the starting point of the mountains, one could find more than a dozen small and dium-sized cities.
The main peak of the mountain range is called Jiger Mountain.
This several-thousand-ter-high peak is the most popular mountaineering and skiing Holy Land in the Central Mountain Area.
However, due to a recent spate of disappearances and various accidents, the number of mountaineering and skiing visitors has drastically decreased.
Even so, there are still those who are defiant or uninford venturing into the snow-covered heights of the mountain.
For instance, at this mont, there’s Tang Qi, pretending to be a skier who t with an accident and was trapped in a deep valley.
He was dressed in a very professional-looking winter mountaineering suit, picked out in a particularly bright red. He leaned against a snowmobile that had broken down and turned off, panting heavily, with a continuous plu of white breath as he appeared to be entering a state of near death.
“Help… Help .”
“Is anyone there, save .”
“I don’t have the strength to shout anymore, am I going to die here?”
With a hoarse voice, Tang Qi called out.
In the end, his voice grew weaker and couldn’t even be heard a few ters away.
He collapsed, powerless, a look of despair appearing in his eyes.
If he were an experienced mountaineer and skiing enthusiast, even if the snowmobile broke down, he would not have ended up in the current predicant, nor would he rashly call out for help so loudly.
Therefore, the role Tang Qi was playing at this ti was actually that of a novice skiing enthusiast.
Due to an accident, he was about to be buried in the Snow Mountain.
His performance was undoubtedly very realistic; his cries grew weaker, and his eyelids gradually closed, his body slowly stiffening.
If Tang Qi wanted to pursue a more realistic effect, he could try sothing such as undressing.
After all, so people who freeze to death exhibit similar symptoms.
However, he was rely trying to lure the “targets” into showing themselves. Given the recent frequency of disappearances in this Snow Mountain, it shouldn’t be difficult, so there was no need to pursue any dramatic effects.
As he closed his eyes slightly, the information surfaced in his mind:
“Jierge Mountain, within two months, has seen nearly a hundred people reported missing, a surge several tis greater than the normal case numbers. Correspondingly, the frequency of disasters such as avalanches in the mountain has also dramatically increased.”
“So local villagers have reported to the police and provided information to so tabloids, claiming to have often heard terrifying Roars in the mountain in recent months, and on so nights, saw bursts of illusory aurora-like light columns deep in the Snow Mountain.”
“Five days ago, a ‘survivor’ escaped from the Snow Mountain, claiming to have been abducted by a strange group of ‘mountaineers,’ who intended to throw him into a terrifying cave deep in the Snow Mountain. In a bid for self-rescue, the survivor loudly caused an avalanche and finally escaped alive, with the abductors’ whereabouts unknown.”
“Jiger City, along with several nearby cities, ford a joint search team and searched inside the Snow Mountain for several days, but in the end, nothing was found.”
“Several cities issued a joint warning, advising against anyone going to Jiger Mountain for mountaineering or skiing.”
These were all materials from the real world.
On the Mysterious Side, however, the situation was even more serious.
“Regarding the abnormal situation of Jiger Mountain, the World Tree organization dispatched two Level 6 agents to investigate.”
“The investigation process resulted in the death of one Level 6 agent, and after the other agent returned, they fell into madness and chaos. After so ti of treatnt, this agent regained their sanity, and a week ago, they submitted an investigation report. This agent believes that Jiger Mountain has beco a land of Evil.”
“Many long-deceased ‘mountaineers,’ who were buried within the Snow Mountain, have sohow been Resurrected, becoming so kind of special Extraordinary Creatures, possessing certain Extraordinary Power.”
“They continuously capture humans who enter the mountains and throw them into a place deep in the Snow Mountain, a location they call the ‘Snow Cave’. No one thrown into that place has ever re-erged.”
“These truths were investigated by the two agents while they intentionally pretended to be lost mountaineers, thus being taken by these Puppet-like Extraordinary Creatures to the Snow Cave.”
“To avoid entering the Snow Cave, both agents finally resisted, leading to the death of one agent. After regaining his sanity, the agent who wrote the report confird the presence of an ‘Ancient Monster’s’ shadow within the Snow Cave and the Evil Roar that contaminated him.”
“After the report was submitted, the World Tree dispatched a Level 7 agent equipped with resistance Curios into Jiger Mountain. After spending half a day searching to no avail, it was not until they employed a similar thod that they were taken to the Snow Cave by the Puppet mountaineers.”
