Tom who was in the water could not breathe properly, wanted to sigh to just complain could not make him even more upset. They all had to retreat because the preparations failed. But it is not that easy, just because you want to retreat also need to fight again. Just getting back to the surface takes courage, hard work and a life gamble.
Luckily they were able to climb back up thanks to three people who did not enter the water. So that it can help one by one who is in the water and when it manages to save one person, the saved do not rest and immediately help the others to go up. Thanks to that cooperation, they managed to return to the surface.
Their plan failed miserably, even for a simple plan could not be done. Though they thought it would work, because only that simple plan they thought could work with the equipment they currently had.
"The water's too strong, we can't do this with just our current numbers" Teo said feeling a lot of water getting into his nose and pain.
"How many more people do you want?! we've had this much!" demelza.
"Looks like we need more help!" said Tan with red eyes.
Everything is now shaking in the cold, even those who help from the edge get wet from the big waves of water suddenly come in large numbers.
"Almost I thought it wasn't a river but a beach" Teo said, inviting laughter as their lips turned bluish.
"The wood we carry is dragged down by the flow. . We can't help it" Dallas said.
"It looks like we also have to tie the wood that we will use as a barrier" Parish said.
"What do you mean?! we have no more rope, and even two of us have to share one rope. We're almost doomed if there's no rope" Dallas said, holding a rope tied to his stomach.
"It's the only way!" tan said he agreed with Parish.
"Of course you're on her side .." complained Teo inwardly.
"Let'soooooooo!" Teo began to shout again suddenly, "ANNOUNCEMENTS TO THE ENTIRE FORCE OF 89 GALLAGHER TO GET HERE ALL HELP!!!!"
"You're crazy, aren't you?! 29 Of us are so many!" demelza said he didn't want to add any more people.
"After all they didn't hear either ..." said Mertie.
Teo felt like he wanted to run back to the camp for help but was unable to because it was too cold. They had to warm themselves first, in order to try again.
Osvald was quickly able to start a fire with the branches and branches he had collected earlier.
"Well, you were great Osvald .." said the other boys praising Osvald's speed and skill.
"Even in snowy weather he can survive .." Tan said in a heart of admiration for Osvald.
29 people now surround a bonfire that Osvald has built. The fire helped them a lot against the piercing cold.
"Again .. again! this fire is very warm .. It seems there is something here" Teo said through the Alvauden Network to feel that there is something mystical at the camp site.
"Or .. we actually just need too much warmth so this fire feels like a big help" said Tom no longer willing to associate with Mundebris and just think logically.
The amount of water is increasingly visible, the longer they stay resting.
"It looks like it's raining up there" Dallas said.
"It's not like it anymore but it's like that .." said Tom.
"If we had grown up, we could have done this a little easier" Tan blamed her age.
"Even adults may not be able to survive ..." said Osvald did not want their spirits broken.
"Let's try again!" Teo screamed like he was using all his strength.
"Just be surprised!" Osvald.
"Ck!" Teo was upset that Demelza was commenting on him again.
Although annoying but the sudden scream from Teo was stirring up their spirits again. Again they gathered wood to be used again as a barrier. This time they sacrificed the rope they used as a safety rope to prevent the wood from being dragged back down again. But because of that some of them had to share one rope together.
"My life is with you" said Parish laughing at Tan who shared one rope with her.
Tan could only laugh as well with the sentimental words from the Parish.
"We must work with each other with the couple who share the rope with us. If anything happens, we have to help each other" Dallas said, again, making the atmosphere even more strange.
"Oh, I get goosebumps hearing that! get across there!" said Teo.
"We're leaving!" tan said that followed by Parish, Dallas and others to walk to the top of the river again to cross with the wooden bridge that was there.
Fortunately, there was a wooden bridge so they could cross without having to bother swimming again. That is why they also do not feel that the treasure hunt mission is not that impossible.
But their expressions all changed after getting to where the wooden bridge was located, "Corrupted!" Dallas could not believe what he was seeing.
"Do we need to go back and tell them?!" ask Parish.
"No, we have to carry out each mission well and one of our group's missions is to cross!" said Dallas.
"No, it's better to go down the river to cross in a quiet stream" Tan said, preferring safety as essential.
"But it will take a long time, we have to go down and then cross the river below which it is not known if the current will be different from here as well or worse. Even if we make it across, we have to climb again to get up here" said Parish would rather take the risk of using a bridge that has been half broken adrift the rushing water rather than buying time.
"Hiswa we are more important, my friend! I don't care how much time we miss, if it can keep us safe it doesn't matter" Tan said patting Parish on the shoulder.
"In that case, we need to go to the bottom of the river .." Dallas said.
"No problem, let's run! sports can save time! plus it can warm our bodies" Tan said with a smile.
"Hahh .. you and your positive thinking ..." Parish laughed.
The right side of the river had to run down to the bottom in order to cross safely.
"Where are you going?!" shouting Tom.
"The bridge above is broken." said Tan still running not stop to explain in more detail.
"Well, they're very professional. Without asking for our help, instead choose to seek other alternatives so that the mission succeeds without disturbing us" the Left River Group said.
"It's been one of their duties to cross, so they have to solve it themselves no matter what" Demelza said.
"Then 4 of us have to help them! after all they were carrying heavy wood and it was not a matter of whose mission it was. But we're all working together" Teo said.
4 Of them volunteered and began to pursue Tan's group. Initially they split 13-13 and two favors for Tan's group while Demelza helped Teo and Tom.
"Now, our numbers are few" Demelza complained.
The deft Teo and Tom who had more energy than most other children were chosen to pull the treasure box. But with their numbers dwindling, all of them looked less excited anymore.
"Don't worry, we can. As long as we work together, even the mountains we can move." Teo said he did not intend to make jokes but still laughed at.
