Xia Nan did not dare rest for long.
Although he had deduced part of the path to survival, he had too little information, and there was not much he could do right now.
But there was one thing he could do: reach the finish!
At least for now, neither Spider Woman nor [One] could stop him from reaching the summit!
Perhaps the summit held the true memories that [One] had sealed away.
Perhaps the summit was a gateway to the real world.
Perhaps... at the summit, he would encounter the unimaginably terrifying, gigantic Vengeful Ghost Lin Ruonan had mentioned last night.
But whatever the case, he was the only one who could reach the summit now.
Xia Nan pressed on again.
But just then, he suddenly heard a terrifying roar!
"Hiss... aaah!!!!!"
The piercing, shrill roar came from farther down the mountain. Xia Nan was not the only one who heard it; Chen Xin and Wu Tiansheng heard it too.
Was that the Vengeful Ghost [One] had turned into? Chen Xin wondered.
But Wu Tiansheng and Xia Nan both shuddered. From their perspective, only Spider Woman could possibly make such a terrifying sound right now.
The cry echoed through the valley, making its exact location impossible to pinpoint, but it definitely was not far away... a thousand meters at most.
Had someone else been killed by a ghost?
Xia Nan's eyes dimmed, and he quickened his pace again.
Wu Tiansheng also ran uphill faster. Being closer, he heard the cry even more clearly. It was utterly hair-raising!
Fortunately, Wu Tiansheng was a professional athlete with exceptional endurance. Now that he was pushing himself, he was considerably faster than Xia Nan, who had fled toward the summit before him.
But...
*Did Spider Woman make that sort of sound when she killed
