As Maddox switched gears to locate Joana's position, he circled around her but found nothing out of the ordinary.
Meanwhile, Joana heard another strange noise.
She remembered the online reports of fatalities in these mountains, and her eyes welled up with tears, on the verge of crying.
The cameraman quickly comforted her, “Don’t worry, I'm right here with you. Plus, the production team has arranged for a bunch
of folks to look out for us nearby. We'll be just fine.”
Joana sniffled, “Last tMr. Maddox had people on that island to protect the guests, but someone still managed to sneak
poisonous snakes onto the island!”
The cameraman was at a loss for words. While he was about to speak, a bizarre sound cfrom not too far away.
Braver than most, he snatched the flashlight from Joana's hand, flicked it on, and shone it into the distance, only to see a shadowy
figure dart past.
Online viewers were freaking out-
[Dude!!! Someone's there!!!]
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt[Holy cow, was that even human? Did you see how fast it moved? Could it be something supernatural?]
[Why am | watching this alone at home? Scared the hell out of me. That didn't look human... right?]
[I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me, but it seems I'm not the only one.]
[Am | crazy, or did it look like it was floating?]
[Chicken nuggets! This is getting too weird for me. Where's Astrid? | won't calm down until | see her.]
[People said this place was haunted, with all those unsolved mysteries. | don't get it. How can Mr. Maddox be so chill about
choosing this spot for an adventure?]
[I'm so freaked out, damn it!]
[There's the light, it's Astrid!!!]
[Believe in Astrid for eternal life, | beg you Joana, stick with Astrid from now on!]
[Damn it, Astrid, save the kid, | was scared to death just now!]
[Chills! Ahhh!]
This was the first tJoana had ever been so relieved to see Astrid. She jogged over and clutched at Astrid's sleeve, "I'm so glad
you're here."
Astrid was taken aback by her clinginess and gently tried to pry Joana's hand away, "Joana, what's with the waterworks?"
But Joana clung on, "There's something really weird in these woods. Just now, both the cameraman and | saw and heard it. That
sound... it was like something gnawing on bones, and it cfrom the direction you all disappeared to. Didn't you see anything?"
"Gnawing on bones?" Parrish's mouth twitched slightly, "Who's out here munching on bones in the middle of the night? Are you
sure you're not just hearing things because you're scared?"
Clyde nodded in agreement, "We didn't see anyone or even any animals on our way here, and we didn't hear anything odd either."
Hearing them say this only convinced Joana further that she had encountered something unholy. She started praying to the
surroundings, "I'm sorry, | didn't mean to offend anyone. Please, | didn't mean to disturb you. I'll light candles and offer prayers for
you when | get back, just please don't cafter me."
The more she apologized, the more the online viewers were convinced something eerie was going on.
Astrid frowned slightly and touched Joana's forehead, "You're not feverish. You're an educated person, let's not get carried away
with superstitions, okay?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJoana retorted, "Easy for you to say with Mr. Lampard protecting you. With his strong presence, you have nothing to fear, but | do!"
Astrid was taken aback. How did the conversation turn to ELampard? And what about having a strong presence?
Suddenly, a chilling cry cfrom above, as if something swooshed over their heads like a gust of wind from behind!
Then, Joana's scream pierced the night sky.
