A few hours later, Clark was on the mountain peak, still climbing with his soldiers. This time, they were luckier as they encountered no beast horde, exobeasts, or natural hazards.
After honoring their dead comrades and building a snow grave as a legacy for them, Clark finally led his soldiers away.
This time, he took the Northward direction as the map indicated that the next nearest mountaineers’ shelter was located in that direction.
Through the map, he was finally able to get a preliminary understanding of their current location.
The great peaks of the Himalayan ranges already expanded countless times, during the last century. Currently, their size and territory were at least a quarter bigger than it was in the 21st century.
