The next second.
Jack swallowed the bun in pieces that Amanda handled to his mouth.
He didn’t even chew it as he directly swallowed it into his stomach.
“Thanks, thank you…”
Jack said gratefully.
Amanda smiled as she said, “Sir, why are you thanking me? I didn’t help you to do anything.”
Jack was stunned.
There was only Amanda’s look in his burning gaze.
People who were in the most desperate and helpless situation would feel like they were shined by the warm sun even though there was only a little bit of sunshine.
And now Amanda gave Jack such feelings!
Even Jack didn’t know why Amanda’s words just now gave him such great motivation and let him wake up suddenly.
When Amanda said the words just now, he felt like the words were suddenly engraved onto his blank mind.
That feeling of empathy made him suddenly stay strong for a moment.
“Sir, you should come here to warm yourself. Here, I will help you.”
Amanda slightly pulled Jack.
Jack shook his head, “I am fine. I can still bear with it.”
However, Amanda wrinkled her nose and showed an angry look as she said firmly, “Sir, you shouldn’t try to act strong. The strong wind and snow of this big snowfield could freeze a human to death. It could even freeze yaks and bears to death.”
“Hey, come in.”
A boy squeezed himself out of the group of children. He pushed Jack into the group of children while he harshly pushed Amanda’s into the group of children.
Then he showed his back to everyone while folding his arms, sitting, and closing his eyes. He looked cold and detached as he said, “Blocking the wind and snow is what a man should do. Amanda, why are you acting strong?”
“Brother…”
Amanda was stunned.
The boy said the words without turning his head back, “It’s fine. Everyone will take shifts to stay in the outer area. My sister was right. Even though we are slaves, we are still alive. If we are frozen to death, we are not even qualified to be slaves.”
Although the children swapped their positions from time to time after Amanda requested.
At the moment, the words that the boy had said still let the group of children feel glad. Glowing light could be seen in their eyes.
The scene in the cage had made Jack look nervous.
He slowly raised his head to see the situation in the two cages at the back. He slightly frowned.
The situation in the other two cages was not as peaceful as in this cage.
They didn’t support each other or stay in a group to keep themselves warm.
They showed a situation that the strongest people would live and they would gather together.
It could be seen that the stronger kids were occupying the most central place while the weaker kids were sitting at the edge. They were suffering the coldest wind and snow as they were directly exposed.
In the strong wind and heavy snow.
Those weaker kids were shivering as they were frozen. Even frost could be seen on their hair and eyebrows. They curled up themselves while clenching their teeth and bearing with it silently.
This scene had clearly shown the cruel situation that the weak people would be the prey of the strong people.
After Jack saw this, his eyes looked confused.
Compare to the situation in their cage, the other two cages were showing another version of “deathmatch”.
However, Jack closed his eyes after a while.
He was clear that he was a prisoner and he couldn’t recover his strength.
He couldn’t do anything to save everyone at this point.
Other than enduring the current situation and protecting Amanda and these children in the cage, there was really nothing he could do.
No. Even he himself had to rely on Amanda and her brother to protect him.
…
The next three days.
For three whole days, Achilles White and three Golden Guards had led 50,000 soldiers from Dragon Cavalry. After receiving Zenith Harol’s reply and orders, not only did Dragon Calvary moved to the bottom part of the Skyline Mountain, they also directly moved from the southern part of the Skyline Mountain to the other end along the road.
