Chapter: 1828
Raegan's goal was to catch the attention of the rescuers with these movements.
Now that she glimpsed a chance for rescue, Raegan naturally refrained from recklessly attempting to climb the vines. Given the vines‘ exposure to the elements, there was no certainty they would hold her weight.
On the ground.
Mitchel and his four agile guards were searching through the area.
It was still a dangerous zone, not easily accessible to the public.
Search and rescue teams were on the mission.
Mitchel had come to search here guided by Misael. Misael had diligently kept track of the direction in which Raegan had been swept away, refusing to forget even for a moment.
The search area was vast.
Others had already gone to search elsewhere, and Mitchel was considering changing his search spot.
Just as he was about to leave, he noticed slight movements in the vines on the ground. He thought it was the wind at first and almost ignored it.
Meanwhile, Raegan, no longer hearing any rescue voices, felt engulfed in despair.
The rain had loosened the soil under her, making her stance increasingly precarious. She realized she couldn't stay put. The ground was about to collapse.
Feeling the vines’ sturdiness in her grip, Raegan decided to act. At that moment, she made a decision and wrapped the vines around her wrist securely.
Placing her trust in the vines to hold her, she prepared to ascend.
But as she started, a loud noise announced the falling rocks.
The earth split beneath her, creating a wide gap.
Raegan slipped downward, screaming as she fell.
The ground she had been standing on just moments before vanished.
With no other option, Raegan bit her lip, swayed her body to find footing, and attempted to stabilize herself against the wall.
Though she had seen Erick rock climb, she had never done it herself.
