After walking along the railway tracks for approximately an hour and a half, the two turned from the northwest to the north direction. There was no forest on the side to block the wind, creating a wind funnel, and a strong gust hit them head-on. This was Shana's first experience of feeling like she was taking off. Lin Wu reacted quickly, squatting and stretching out his leg to cushion Shana's head as she fell.
The two stepped back a few paces, and the force of the wind lessened. Shana recalled the nearby terrain from memory and said, "The crosswind section is about a kilometer. After one kilometer, we will be facing the wind head-on for the entire journey."
Nightmare, though not intending to trap Lin Wu, could trap him unintentionally. She had been traveling from the safe house to Doomsday Fortress, mostly with the wind at her back.
Lin Wu looked back and saw a short tunnel about fifty meters away: "Shana, stay here. I'll give you the incendiary grenades and wolf meat."
