Before long, this little episode disappeared like a shooting star in the night sky.

At this moment, the most urgent task at hand is to find clues about the merchant ship, rather than arguing endlessly and wasting time here.

So, Yue Yue and Gu Changmu got off the ship without hesitation and headed towards a nearby island.

Although these islands are not large in size, what is surprising is that each island is covered with lush and verdant trees of various shapes and sizes.

The huge treetops intertwined with each other, like giant natural umbrellas, covering the entire island tightly.

Faced with such a scene, the two had no choice but to bite the bullet and set foot on this mysterious land to find out what was going on.

Speaking of this island, it seems insignificant from a distance, but once you set foot on it in person, you will be surprised to find that there is something else inside.

When they set foot on the soft and fine sand, an indescribable shock came over them - the actual area of the island was much larger than it looked!

It really proves the old saying: "Seeing is believing". If we observe many things with our naked eyes, we are often easily deceived by their appearance; only by exploring them in person can we understand their true appearance.

As Yue Yue and Gu Changmu successfully landed on the island, people from other countries also began to prepare to visit other surrounding islands.

Everyone has curiosity and anticipation about the unknown world in their hearts, eager to discover more unknown secrets and surprises in this vast ocean.

In the nearby sea area, there are dozens of islands of different sizes scattered around, like bright pearls dotted on the vast sea.

There are so many islands that they can explore and view them to their heart's content.

The island they are on now is considered to be one of the larger ones in this area.

After stepping onto the island, they walked towards the dense jungle around them without hesitation.

On this side close to the coast, the beach is fine and soft, and the pieces of snow-white sand are formed after years of impact and washing by waves.

It wasn't long before they reached the deepest part of the forest.

As they walked along, the treetops that had once allowed some sunlight to penetrate gradually closed together and intertwined, completely obscuring their heads.

However, at this moment, an amazing scene appeared before their eyes—there was a freshwater lake hidden in the center of the island!

The lake water is crystal clear and sparkling. From a distance, its area is quite impressive.

The long trek had already made them exhausted, and they were extremely hungry. The discovery of such a water source was undoubtedly a timely help for them.

Gu Changmu quickly took out the water bottle he carried with him and carefully walked to the lake to fetch some fresh water.

Immediately afterwards, Yue Yue also swiftly took out the utensils for cooking and boiling water from her bag.

When everything was ready, she skillfully lit the bonfire and poured fresh water into the pot and slowly boiled it.

After all, in such a desolate environment, drinking hot water is more beneficial to the body.

As they stopped their hurried steps, the heat generated by walking gradually dissipated.

The breeze blew gently across the lake, bringing a hint of coolness, blowing on their sweaty bodies, making people feel refreshed and relaxed.

At this moment, they were immersed in this rare leisurely time, temporarily forgetting the hardships and difficulties of the journey.

In the distance, the tranquil center of the lake seemed to be stirred by a mysterious and powerful force.

The lake water began to churn violently, and huge bubbles gurgled on the surface of the water, like boiling water.

Suddenly, the surging water rushed into the sky like a giant dragon, raising a spectacular column of water.

At this moment, the people who were still on the ship witnessed this shocking scene and were all dumbfounded and terrified.

Some people in the crowd shouted in panic: "The volcano is erupting!"

However, the T countrymen around them waved their hands anxiously, jumping up and down while desperately explaining to everyone, "There's no volcano here! We've already carefully inspected this area many times, and this is definitely not in an earthquake zone!"

As the leader of Country T patiently explained, the people on the ship, who were originally extremely nervous, breathed a sigh of relief.

But at this moment, something unexpected happened again - the lake surface surged violently again, followed by a second, even more violent eruption!

This time, the water column that shot up into the sky was more than fifty or sixty meters high, and its impact force was beyond imagination.

At this time, Yue Yue and Gu Changmu, who were by the lake, were in an extremely embarrassing situation.

When the first gushes of water came out, they reacted quickly, running towards a nearby tree like lightning and clinging to the trunk tightly, not daring to let go.

However, faced with such violent natural forces, their efforts seemed insignificant.

With the strong impact of the second eruption, the two were instantly shaken off the tree and fell heavily to the ground.

Fortunately, the lake was higher than the surrounding trees, otherwise the two of them might have fallen directly into the water. With the vibration, they rolled all the way towards the beach.

Finally, the lake stopped erupting, and they stopped. Gu Changmu had held Yue Yue tightly when he rolled over, so Yue Yue wasn't hurt. Luckily, the area was mostly sand, so even someone as tough as Gu Changmu wouldn't have much of an impact.
