Chapter 968 The Rattlesnake Stole Our Supplies

"Everyone, be quiet and don't speak! Minimize your breathing as much as possible, and set off immediately!"

Gavin glanced around at the eight Dragon Soul elites and gave the order to depart.

Everyone immediately shut their mouths.

This not only saved energy but also helped prevent the moisture from their bodies from evaporating too quickly.

According to their temperature tests, the perceived temperature under the sun was nearly 140°F.

With the dry wind blowing on everyone, the humidity was almost zero.

The only thing they could do was to maintain their body's moisture as much as possible.

They had to reach the other side of the mountain in the shortest time possible to avoid prolonged activity in the extreme heat. Everyone covered their nostrils and mouths to reduce moisture loss and prevent more heat from being absorbed into their bodies.

In such extreme heat, every step was incredibly difficult.

And, the slope of the mountain was very steep.

The first section from the foot of the mountain had a slope of nearly 70 degrees or more.

Even worse, the path up the mountain was rocky and treacherous, with almost no section that was easy to walk on.

A slight misstep would send them sliding straight to the bottom of the mountain.

The soldiers had to practically cling to the rocks as they climbed upward.

The frustrating part was the lack of rocks to grab onto for climbing, let alone any footholds to step on.

It took more than an hour to walk the 0.3-mile mountain path.

Every soldier was almost on the verge of collapsing from exhaustion.

Freya signaled for everyone to stop and rest for two minutes.

Although the surface of the rocks was scorching hot, no one cared about that anymore.
