Carl nodded. “Yeah, that goes without saying. You’re driving a sports car, so you’ll move faster. Why don’t you intercept Declan? We’ll hurry over right now.”

“Sure.” Toby accelerated and sped forward once again.

On the congested road, Declan’s driver returned to their procession with a frown.

“Young Master Declan, there are some issues,” he reported with a grim look. “There’s a pile-up in front. I think it’ll take an hour or two before the traffic clears up.”

“An hour or two?” The dissatisfactory answer put Declan in an extremely horrible mood, so much so that even his face contorted. “Why would it take that long?”

“Well, a number of vehicles are involved in the pile-up,” Johnny answered in a defeated tone.

Declan looked to his left and right, and everywhere he stared, he could only see endless lines of cars. The situation was indeed dire for Declan, and the fact that he couldn’t do anything to fix it was excruciating.

Great! Now we’re officially stuck here!

“No, we can’t get stuck here any longer. If not, Toby and Lucius are going to catch up to us soon,” he clenched his fists and hissed.

Johnny agreed with him and asked, “What do we do?”

Declan lowered his eyes and sank into thoughts. Seconds later, he gritted his teeth and declared, “Forget about the car!”

“Forget about the car?”

“That’s right! Our cars can’t move an inch in this traffic anyway. To avoid Lucius and Toby from catching up, we have no choice but to leave it here. Let’s take the mountain road by foot.”

“We’re walking to Misty Mountain?” Johnny’s chin almost fell onto the floor.

Declan shot him a chilling look. “Do we have a choice?”

“But walking on the mountain trail will take too long. It will take at least a few hours to reach Misty Mountain.” Johnny tried to talk him out of the idea. It’s ridiculous!
