Chapter 982

After crossing God knew how many mountains, the sky gradually turned dark. We had yet to find a resting place for the night, so Shannon suggested a little worriedly, "Why don’t we continue forward? There were many human traces along the way earlier, so there must be a village somewhere. If we can find someone, then we'll be able to call for help."

Nina agreed. "If we can find villagers nearby, then we can finally go home. I agree to continue on our journey.”

Everyone else nodded to agree. Fueled by hope and motivation, we were able to move much quicker than before.

When we went over another mountain and saw the lights in the distance, Nina cried tears of joy. "When I get home, I'm going to buy that bag I've had my eyes o n for so long yet never got around to buying. Then, I'm going to confess my love for my crush."

Holly also said while crying, "You should all come to m y place first. I'll treat you to our famous loyal skewers."

"Or you should all come to my place and have hotpot instead. I don't think I'll get sick of it even if I eat it for a week consecutively," Shannon said with a smile.

She was a very beautiful girl who looked exceptionally stunning when she smiled.

Dazaray stopped praying and looked at us, saying, " The reason you survived is that God protected you. You should all start repenting for your sins."

Those words spoiled everyone's mood and left all of us speechless. We merely gave her a glance, having no intention to entertain her.

Shannon looked at me and asked with a smile, "What d o you want to do most when you go home?"

What did I want to do most when I go home?

I fell silent for a very long time before saying, "I might go and see someone I really miss. I'll hug him and tell him that I'm sorry." 2
