They could not climb up.
Even if Wayne and Simon used some more tools, they could not climb up after reaching a height of around nine feet ten inches.
This was because there were no cracks in the area more than nine feet ten inches, all of which were glossy stones. There was no crack, no thorns or tree branches, and no place to climb.
In fact, the so-called extreme rock climbing still required certain basic requirements. If there was no crack in the wall, how could a person climb up?
Moreover, it was at a height of 6,500 feet. If there were still no gaps or protrusions at 5,900 feet after climbing 660 feet, they would kill themselves if they wanted to climb 5,900 feet.
After thinking for a long time, Oliver could not see anything unusual on the map. He stood up and observed as he walked along the cliff.
Mount Rockenan, the Alpar River on the periphery, and the Enchanting Fog on the outermost part were like an artificial
mechanism.
Nevertheless, Oliver thought it was impossible. He thought, “How could the humans make it?”
Humans could not make it with such advanced technology nowadays, let alone the ancients many years ago.
When Oliver observed along the foot of Mount Rockenan, Wayne and Simon separated. Wayne followed Oliver while Simon was guarding Sienna.
Gabriel also followed Oliver to observe Mount Rockenan. He exclaimed while observing it, “It is such an extremely skillful workmanship! This mountain looks like it was made by humans, but how can humans make such a mountain full of stones?”
After walking to the right for half an hour, Oliver did not notice anything unusual. Mount Rockenan was completely composed of stones, just like a stone carving.
Then, they walked for another half an hour. Oliver seemed to think of something in his mind. He stopped without reason and said to Gabriel after thinking about it, “Professor Lewis, why don’t we go back and go in the other direction? I feel that this direction is not what we need.”
Gabriel agreed. He shrugged and said, “Okay. I will follow you.”
Gabriel had been here to help Gunther. Seeing that Gunther could not stand it anymore, Gabriel lost his opinion.
Besides, Gabriel was hit hard this time. First of all, the Enchanting Fog made him change his perspectives and gain new insights.
The Enchanting Fog overthrew what Gabriel had learned, and science could not explain it.
Then, the Great Wolf was the second hit. Gabriel could not imagine how the huge Great Wolf mutated.
The third hit was the Alpar River. Gabriel had witnessed the Alpar River which only existed in legends.
The fourth hit was the Nubia Python at the bottom of the Alpar River. He wondered, “How does the huge and fierce creature survive? And how does it grow up?”
The fifth hit was the bridge pier hidden on the Alpar River. Gabriel wondered, “How is it built? If it is built by humans, how can it avoid the fierce and brutal Nubia Python? And what is the material to make the bridge pier?”
The sixth hit was the Nocturna Heron. Gabriel wondered where such a creature who was not afraid of Nubia Python emerged from.
The seventh hit was he wondered why the Nocturna Herons suddenly went crazy and killed each other.
The eighth hit was Mount Rockenan. Gabriel wondered, “If this is where Tristar Treasure is hidden, where would these treasures be? This mountain is formed by pure stones. Is it empty inside? Or there is a passage inside? But there are no entrances and exits. Where is the passage?”
Gabriel could not figure it out, but he felt that Oliver was the ninth thing who hit him.
He thought, “Is it a coincidence that so many dangerous situations that could not be avoided or solved were eliminated and resolved by Oliver again and again?”
Gabriel denied it. There was no absolute coincidence, let alone so many things happened so coincidentally.
Oliver stared at the stone wall and walked back, followed by Gabriel and Wayne.
When they were back to the starting point, Gunther stroked his chest and asked weakly, “How is it? Have you discovered anything?”
Gabriel shook his head slowly. Oliver did not say anything but just stared at the stone wall and continued to walk toward the
left side. Wayne followed closely behind Oliver.
Sienna got better. She stood up and followed Oliver as she walked, “Let me go with you.”
Hailey did not dare to follow him, for fear that Gunther would lose his life in the blink of an eye.
Seeing Sienna leave with Oliver, Simon stood up to follow them.
Wayne glanced at Gunther and Hailey. He said to Simon after hesitating for a moment, “Sim, just stay here and look after Ms. Fox and Mr. Fox.” Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Wayne was not stupid. He could see that Oliver had a crush on Hailey. After they left, only Gunther and Hailey were left here. If there was any accident, Gunther and Hailey could not resist it at all.
Simon hesitated but agreed in the end.
Wayne and Simon were best friends. Simon thought Wayne would not hurt him and must have a purpose to make such an arrangement.
Oliver did not pay attention to these things at all. He stared at the stone wall and walked toward the left.
After walking to the left for more than ten minutes, the strange feeling in his mind became stronger and stronger, so he wanted to go to the place where the feeling was the strongest.
After walking along the stone wall of Mount Rockenan for more than half an hour, they still did not reach the place where Oliver had the strongest feeling in his mind.
However, they saw two people coming. Wayne jumped to the front with one step and then saw clearly that the two people were Louis and Yoseph!
Louis and Yoseph had made a circle. When they saw Oliver and the others, they shook their heads and said, “Have you found anything? We came around a big circle but only saw bare stone walls. It is not easy to find a seam, let alone a cave or path.”
Seeing that Oliver did not look at him and was still walking forward while staring at the stone wall, Louis quickly said, “Mr. Eastwood, there is no need to go ahead. We two came around a big circle and observed everywhere. There are all bare stone walls without cracks. You don’t have to waste time.”
Nonetheless, Oliver ignored Louis and walked forward while looking.
Louis was immediately embarrassed and wanted to say something more. However, Wayne made a shush gesture, motioning him not to interrupt Oliver’s thinking, and then whispered to him, “You don’t have to follow anymore. Go back and guard Mr. Fox. I will go check with Mr. Eastwood.”
Louis nodded and waved to Yoseph. Then, they went back while chatting in a low voice!
They were fine with Oliver’s behavior as long as he wasn’t afraid of wasting his physical strength. No matter how he stared, there were only stone walls.
After Oliver walked for a few minutes, the feeling in his mind became stronger and stronger, just like when he suddenly got the answers when he was doing the question.
Finally, Oliver stopped in a place. He looked at the place about three feet above his head and saw a pit the size of a table
tennis ball.
Louis and Yoseph said that there was no seam. They had obviously missed out on this small pit.
