"Well.." Seungmin had a bit trouble describing what he saw once they were a few kilometres away from Elenchomeni.
It was just a desert.
Anywhere they looked was just brown sand, strong winds and practically no livelihood around.
"What if we fail to enter the base?" Jeongin questioned. "Things don't look good around here."
"We can rest under these rocks." Jaeun said, looking around at the huge rocks placed in the sand, some of which are broken down into sand.
"Will they be safe though?" Chan asked.
"Yeah, at most there can be snakes but we can just kill them..I guess?" Hyunjin shrugged.
"Snakes!?" Jeongin's eyes widened.
"We will only find desert snakes here." Hyunjin explained looking at the sand.
"And they are non poisonous." Jaeun added.
"Woah you guys seemed to have prepared well." Seungmin was pretty impressed.
"Well..it was a book I read." Jaeun said , chuckling awkwardly.
"Yeah same. " Hyunjin replied. "It was a BL though."
"What BL has information about snakes?" Chan laughed.
"TGCF; Heaven Official's Blessing!" Hyunjin and Jaeun said at the same time.
"OHMY-" Jaeun jumped excitedly. "DID YOU ALSO WATCH THE DONGHUA?"
Hyunjin nodded aggressively.
"This is the first time I have found someone who had read the books!"
"This honestly feels like we are in the ban yue arc!" Jaeun laughed. "Watch Hua Cheng and Xie lian walk around here with Feng xin and mu wing."
"And the wind god will blow us away!" Hyunjin laughed. " I am so happy!"
As both of them went back and forth about their love for the book and the series, the rest of them watched them in awe.
"And have you read Mo Dao Zu Shi?" Hyunjin asked, they both were in their own conversation for most of the way.
"That was my first! I actually loved watching the untamed and then I saw the anime and then the book!" Jaeun exclaimed.
"SAME!" Hyunjin gasped. "Ohmygod I am ditching Jisung, be my bestfriend Jaeun."
"I can't be slapping your ass, Hyun." Jaeun joked making all of them laugh.
.
"What should we do now?" Felix asked as soon as they reached Australia.
"Die." Jisung deadpanned.
"I know Minho Hyung rejected you but I still want to live." Changbin said, putting his arm around his shoulders.
"Let's check in a hote first." Minho suggested. "We should also inform Chan and Seungmin that we are already here. "
"Yeah..Jaeun would be worried too." Felix nodded in agreement.
"Do that." Jisung nodded. "Changbinnie Hyung, can I sleep on your shoulder while we ride to the hotel? I am so sleepy."
"Of course, Han." Changbin smiled fondly at the younger.
Jisung had wasted all his energy in the plane itself and it was a long flight, exhaustion was starting to hit him.
"Oh? Chan..yeah we reached."
Minho talked over the hand phone , Jisung pretended to not be bothered but he couldn't help and opened an eye, staring at Minho talking over the phone from the passenger seat of the taxi.
"It's a desert? The heck?" Minho's words made everyone curious.
"Ask if Jaeun is okay.." Felix nudged Minho who did the same and put the phone on speaker.
"Bokkie, I am okay." Jaeun's voice felt a bit robotic due to the signal problems.
"HAN JISUNG, I HAVE A NEW BESTFRIEND AND IT'S SHIN JAEUN!!" Hyunjin yelled over the phone, instantly provoking Jisung.
"You are a traitor." Jisung mumbled before snuggling up to Changbin even more.
"Oh? Bitch are you okay?" Hyunjin asked, concerned as to why Jisung wasn't yelling at him already.
"Jisung is exhausted, Hyun." Changbin said instead.
"Oh, take care. I will try calling later." Hyunjin said.
.
"Is this-" Jeongin looked at what seemed like a deserted town Infront of him. "-Elenchomeni?"
"Seems like it." Seungmin said.
What stood in front of them was a huge gate that was closed, all around it was fenced , covered in sand with nothing else around in miles.
"How do we get in?" Jaeun asked.
"We should take a look in first." Chan suggested. " You guys should get on my back and try looking over the fence."
"But-"
"Just do it, Seungmo." Chan smiled assuring them that he will be okay.
Jaeun watched as Hyunjin got on Chan's back and then Jeongin and Seungmin on top of him.
"Do you see anything?" Jaeun asked Seungmin who seemed to have lost his sense once he peeked in.
"Hyung, fast fast!" Hyunjin said, his back had started hurting.
Seungmin jumped down quickly and lead them away, hiding behind one of the rocks to explain everything.
"Everything inside looks so monotone.
"What does that mean?" Chan asked.
"There were men dressed in head to toe in white in weird paramedics kind of suit and they were taking a bunch of people ; also dressed in white somewhere." Seungmin explained. "It looked like a scene from a science fiction."
"How's the security?"
"I didn't see much of them. As long as we can have those white suits, I guess we can make through."
"It's weird that they don't have much security for something as scandalous as this." Jaeun muttered.
"Probably because it is in middle of nowhere and as far as you can see, it's just deserted." Seungmin answered.
"Okay but even if we climb the fence somehow," Hyunjin continued. "How will we even get those suits thingy you are talking about?"
"Yeah and not to mention we all can't go in now either way. The fence is too high." Jeongin added.
The group groaned in frustration , not knowing what to do .
"I guess two of us can go inside first." Jaeun suggested.
"But just two will be too dangerous." Chan shaked his head in disapproval. "Too dangerous."
"Well two of us can sneak in first and make ways for others." Jaeun insisted. " I will go."
"Then I will go too." Seungmin looked at Chan in determination.
"But-"
"Please."
Chan finally agreed because no matter how much danger it will put on Jaeun and Seungmin, they had to go in and this was the only way in. Seungmin climbed on top of Chan, Hyunjin and Jeongin and jumped on the other side.
"Stay hidden." Jaeun said to Chan.
"You too."
Once Jaeun reached the top, she swiftly jumped in and fist bumped with Seungmin. They both had landed behind a pile of huge containers which hid them pretty well.
"I hope they will be okay." Hyunjin prayed as they went back in hiding.
