Lucas Thorne is a bona fide research expert, but he is rather indecisive, wavering when everyone expressed differing opinions.
Crystal Landon had lost all patience and assertively said, "Lucas, as the sponsor of this expedition, I have the right to demand you set up camp here and wait for rescue. All your compasses, GPS, and electronic devices are failing; only my equipment is working. If you want to die, keep moving; otherwise, stay with me."
After she spoke, a flicker of impatience crossed her cold and beautiful face. She removed her backpack and, while the daylight hadn't entirely faded away, began setting up her tent.
Everyone was shocked. Crystal Landon was the sponsor? This field expedition was sponsored by Crystal Landon?
Seeing her decisive attitude, Lucas Thorne finally felt some assurance, nodded, and said, "Quickly set up camp, build the tents close together."
Everyone hurriedly set up their tents. Jagger Lloyd gathered wood around the area, ready to start a fire.
