The Genius Mage Chapter 397 – Sleepwalking

Chapter 397: Sleepwalking

“How could we have made a mistake?” Klein asked in puzzlement, his heart inexplicably tense.

“It probably has something to do with the trees in the forest. There shouldn’t be any major problems. We’ll just have to pay more attention when we leave,” Morris said after some thought.

Audrey had the same thoughts, but the most important thing now was to find the right direction.

She raised her head and looked at the sun. After thinking for a moment, she looked in a certain direction and said, “This way.”

They trusted Audrey very much, so they nodded affirmatively and followed Audrey.

The forest was very wide. They had walked until the sun set, but they had not walked out. Audrey made a rough judgment that they were right in the middle of the forest. They would probably have to walk for another day tomorrow.

After the sun set, the fog in the forest gradually rose again. As far as the eye could see, it was a vast expanse of whiteness. Nothing could be seen at all.

The cold air also fell, and Klein and the others put on thick clothes.

“Let’s rest here tonight. It’s too dangerous to walk in the forest at night,” Morris said. He found a relatively empty place and set up a tent.

At night, they took turns keeping vigil. Audrey and Morris sat beside the bonfire, thinking silently.

At this moment, there was a sudden movement from the tent not far away. Their gazes were immediately drawn over, and Kate walked out of the tent.

Audrey immediately frowned, vaguely sensing that something was wrong.

“Kate, why are you awake? It’s not your turn to keep watch.” Morris did not pay too much attention to it. Instead, he asked indifferently.

However, Kate did not pay attention to him. Only then did Morris sense that something was wrong. He looked at Audrey and wanted to ask her about it, but he found that Audrey had already stood up and walked toward Kate.

“Are you sleepwalking?”

The two of them quickly arrived beside Kate and waved at him. Kate did not react at all and walked forward with a dull look in his eyes.

Audrey did not know what was going on either. She stared at Kate with a serious expression, hesitating whether she should wake him up or not.

At this moment, there was another movement from the tent behind them. Klein also walked out.

Audrey and Morris looked at each other in disbelief. It looked as if they were sleepwalking, but now that both Klein and Kate were in such a situation, something was clearly wrong.

“Why are they both…” Morris said incredulously, a hint of unease flashing in his eyes. He could not help but rejoice that he and Audrey were not asleep.

“Shh, follow them and see where we’re going,” Audrey interrupted Morris and said in a low voice.

Kate and Klein were walking in the same direction, toward the same direction in the forest.

Morris hurriedly packed his things and followed behind Klein and Kate with Audrey.

After walking through layers of thick fog for a long time, Klein and Kate finally stopped. There was no difference in their surroundings, and they were still surrounded by trees.

Audrey and Morris were puzzled. Just as they were puzzled, a few vines suddenly stretched out from their surroundings. Like a pair of hands, they grabbed Kate and Klein and pulled them back at an extremely fast speed.

Audrey’s pupils constricted. She wanted to step forward to stop them, but it was too late.

The thick fog around them made it impossible to see where the vines had taken Klein and Kate.

“What should we do?” Morris asked with an ugly expression.

Audrey’s expression was also very heavy. Now, both Klein and Kate were unconscious. It would be terrible if they were in danger, but now, they did not know how to find the two of them.

“Got it. We’ll pretend to be sleepwalking and see if we’ll be taken away,” Morris suddenly said.

Audrey was stunned for a moment as she looked at Morris in a daze.

Was this method feasible?

She sat up with Morris doubtfully. The two of them walked to the spot where Klein and Kate had just been sleepwalking. Then, they stopped and waited there.

After a while, there was still no movement around them.

Audrey frowned slightly. Just as she was about to give up, she suddenly heard a rustling sound. Following that, a few vines appeared.

Just like how they had taken Klein and Kate away, they wrapped themselves around the two of them and disappeared into the fog.

After being tied up by the vines and flying in the air for a long time, the two of them were finally thrown down.

A sinister aura came from them. Audrey and Morris could not help but shudder. They quietly observed their surroundings and could only see things within two to three meters.

However, Audrey’s sharp eyes still noticed some white bones beside them. Someone had actually died here?

Audrey instantly tensed up. She glanced at Morris. Would the people who had been brought here end up like the white bones on the ground?

This was simply too terrifying.

At a glance, this place did not seem any different from the forest they had entered. However, this area was like a mass grave. It was filled with white bones, and there were some corpses that had not completely turned into white bones.

After confirming that there was no danger around, Audrey got up and looked around, trying to find Klein and Kate.

From time to time, she would kick some white bones under her feet. Audrey’s expression turned uglier and uglier. After taking a few steps, Audrey saw a small hill made of bones not far away. Klein and Kate were also placed on it.

“They’re over there.” Audrey tried her best to calm down and pointed to a spot not far away.

Morris nodded. The two of them looked at each other nervously before walking forward and bringing Klein and Kate to a slightly cleaner spot to try and wake them up.
