“The tidal patterns here are completely different from those in the original world. At low tide, the reef is exposed for about two meters,” Xi Xi said quietly, looking at the tide table that Li Jinshao had just developed.

This was the first time she had ever seen tidal patterns in a game that were completely different from those on Earth.

Isn't it said that the moon has some influence on the tides? Xi Xi remembers that every night after entering the country, the moon was often clearly visible in the sky.

Her expression changed slightly, and she pondered to herself, feeling that this survival game was somewhat unbelievable.

Chu Zhiqin's voice interrupted Xi Xi's thoughts: "So what's the situation now?"

“It’s high tide now, and the reef is four meters underwater, so we have to wait for low tide.” Xi Xi snapped out of her reverie, peeled a segment of tangerine and popped it into her mother’s mouth, her brow furrowing slightly. “There are less than four hours left, we need to hurry…”

The rest of the voyage was like dancing on a knife's edge. The RV drifted with the ocean currents, and each time it dodged a reef, it was a thrilling experience.

Even with pixel maps that could predict the underwater terrain in advance, Xi Xi still lay on the passenger seat like a human depth sounder, judging the underwater topography based on the shape of the waves.

As the setting sun dyed the clouds a purplish-red, she finally saw the horseshoe-shaped reef.

However, as she approached the reefs, she discovered that the situation was far more complicated than she had imagined.

The area between the rocks is riddled with hidden reefs and whirlpools; a moment's carelessness could lead to being swept into them, resulting in a fatal accident.

As the ship grazed the outer coral reef, Xi Xi seemed to hear the sound of hundreds of barnacles being crushed. Between the setting sun and the storm, the outline of an island reef appeared and disappeared.

Xi Xi glanced at the group of rocks ahead and immediately signaled her mother to stop the car: "Driving straight through like this isn't going to work! Turn around, it's the last bit of road left, let's go across via the bridge!"

Fortunately, the wind and rain around the island were not too strong. After retracting the Magic Melody Retractable Ladder, the mother and daughter, wearing cloaks and holding tightly to the railing, walked steadily along the edge of the cross-sea bridge and soon arrived at the harbor.

The deserted island was indeed calm and peaceful, completely unlike the stormy weather it had been in before.

Xi Xi jumped ashore first, reached out and grabbed Chu Zhiqin. The two then wearily took off their cloaks and looked around the island.
