The situation ahead may be more complicated than we expected. The attraction of scroll fragments often also means danger and competition.
Upon hearing this, Mai Xuan frowned and a hint of vigilance flashed in his eyes.
"Is there anyone else like us, planning to intercept other teams at the finish line?"
The competition for this magical weapon is so fierce beyond imagination.
Gao Chen, who was usually taciturn, also spoke up and analyzed:
"The fact that they thought of blocking us shows that they not only possess the key scroll fragments, but also possess extraordinary strength and wisdom."
"This is a battle of wisdom and courage. We must not take it lightly!"
Yun Yang looked into the distance, where darkness and the unknown intertwined. He sighed softly:
"The other party's attitude is unclear. Whether they are friend or foe remains to be seen."
"But no matter what, the road ahead will be full of thorns and challenges."
"We may be facing an unprecedented tough battle..."
Although the future was uncertain, no one in the team had any intention of retreating.
They looked at each other, determination and resolve gleaming in their eyes.
Now that they have come this far, there is no reason for them to turn back!
It’s still unclear who will beat whom!
Without further ado, everyone set off again, taking firm steps and heading towards the unknown coast without hesitation.
The night breeze seemed to be cheering these brave explorers on.
As night falls, the stars disappear beneath the thick sea level.
The destination is underwater.
The five of them were like five determined arrows.
Without any hesitation, he resolutely jumped into the deep and mysterious blue.
The sea water embraced them instantly, and the coldness carried an unknown temptation.
With the sound of "plop, plop" falling into the water.
The five figures were quickly and tightly wrapped in two bubbles made of special materials.
These bubbles are like transparent armor, which not only isolates the invasion of sea water but also retains the necessary oxygen and vision.
Allowing explorers to travel freely underwater.
The underwater world becomes even darker and more mysterious under the cover of night.
The light was dim, as if even time was stretched.
At this moment, Feng Feng took out two flashlights from his backpack as if by magic.
With a light press, two beams of bright light instantly pierced through the darkness, like the brightest stars in the night sky, barely illuminating a corner in front.
As light and shadow interweave, the colorful corals, the swimming fish, and the secrets hidden in the dark gradually reveal their outlines.
Yunyang: “…”
Yunyang looked at Feng Feng, a complicated look flashed in his eyes, the corners of his mouth moved slightly but he didn't say a word.
Feng Feng saw this and smiled heartily:
"What? Why are you looking at me? In this underwater night, doesn't it take some light to dispel the fear? This kind of scene is perfect for a flashlight!"
"We don't have that many supernatural things to deal with this normal darkness!"
It's just an ordinary night. You can't ask him to take out the extraordinary props needed to deal with the abnormal black fog, right?
As he said this, he threw a flashlight into their bubble.
Yunyang caught it steadily, and a smile finally appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Although his expression still seemed a little subtle, his trust and recognition of Feng Feng were obvious.
"You're right, I was overthinking it."
He responded softly, his gaze once again directed towards the unknown territory barely illuminated by the flashlight.
Although his expression was hard to describe, there was really no way to refute it.
The five continued on their way.
The coral sand under your feet is delicate and soft, and every step you take seems to be in silent communication with the creatures on the seabed.
They shuttled back and forth, occasionally startling groups of colorful crabs and fish.
They either fled in panic or surrounded us curiously, adding a bit of liveliness and fun to the adventure.
However, beneath the tranquility of the seabed, there are also unknown crises hidden.
Every surge of water and every change of light and shadow seem to hide danger.
finally.
They stopped on a seemingly ordinary underwater beach.
Here, there are no amazing treasures, nor scary monsters.
, there is only a quiet place surrounded by coral reefs and dotted with marine plants.
Creatures swim leisurely among them.
It's as if time has stopped here.
Jin Shile looked around, his brows furrowed, unable to hide his confusion:
"Are you sure this is the place we're looking for?" His tone was filled with confusion and uneasiness.
Yunyang nodded firmly.
"Without a doubt, the terrain here is exactly as described in the scroll."
"Combined with our previous precise estimate of the intersection distance, the end point can only be here."
There was an unmistakable glint in his eyes.
Gao Chen took over the conversation and added:
"Yes, the reason why we gained nothing yesterday was probably because we lacked the key to unlock all this."
His words were like a key, gently clearing away the fog and making everything become clear.
It turns out that their intuition was not wrong.
What is missing is the key to unlock the secrets of this underwater world.
The key to open it is missing.
Feng Feng closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
After a moment, he opened his eyes, a glint of certainty in them.
"I can also sense that whoever holds the other scroll fragments is nearby."
"They're holding the map to the finish line. They're all there, so there's no way they're wrong!"
Just as the five people were preparing to explore further.
