The moment the sky darkened, a slight commotion rippled through the convoy.
As the wind picked up, a hand materialized from thin air, landing on the shoulder of a person at the rear of the convoy.
Unable to resist, the man glanced back instinctively.
What did he see?
No one knew. All they saw was that in the instant he turned, his eyes flew wide open. Then, he tore open his throat and let out a bloodcurdling scream: "AH—!"
The horrifying shriek echoed through the rear of the convoy, and the crowd instantly erupted into chaos.
This was despite the recent warning from the Escort Masters of the Situong Escort Agency: do not look back, do not speak, ignore anyone shouting, and do not enter the mountainside—just charge forward without stopping.
But human instinct is not so easily controlled. Some people simply lack the willpower. Even if they understood the warnings, they couldn't stop themselves from making a mistake.
