The unknown is terrifying, but it is also very attractive.
Some people choose to shrink back in the face of the unknown, and this shrinking back can be seen as awe. However, some people choose to challenge and explore the unknown, which is a kind of fearlessness.
Reverence and fearlessness are a powerful combination, a belief we must all hold. In different situations, we need to make the best choice based on the actual circumstances.
A new world, a new home—this world doesn't offer newcomers much choice. Here, pioneers need fearlessness; if you only have reverence for the world, you might already be buried at sea, or become food for some deep-sea creatures.
Fear? Of course she was afraid. Even Gu Xi, after walking in this deathly darkness for half an hour, couldn't excuse herself for being completely unmoved.
As time went by, her heart pounded faster and faster. She still hadn't reached her next goal, a state of aimlessness that would cause many to give up. She didn't know the meaning of perseverance, or where the distant shore lay.
At times like this, she needed something to keep her going. So she decisively turned on the light screen.
The light from the light curtain instantly filled the darkness. Although it was only a soft light, Gu Xi still felt that the light was too beautiful.
Of course, this self-encouragement wasn't enough; she still needed to add some new fun. So she started humming a little tune again.
Although these actions could easily put her in danger, she felt that if she didn't get out of the current "danger" now, she would really be in danger.
After walking for about ten more minutes, Gu Xi finally stopped.
"Finally, finally it's over!"
This joy and excitement wasn't the ordinary happiness of "finding a new path after a long and difficult journey." It was more like finding a guiding light in her life, illuminating her entire existence with extreme pleasure.
She could sense that there was a gigantic gate in front of her. Although she could only perceive it with her mental power, she could tell that the gate was over ten meters high. Moreover, there were various strange runes and giant chains on the gate.
Such things are usually either treasure troves or the sealed locations of some kind of thing, although she didn't know if the concept of seals existed in this world.
But none of that matters. What's important is how she's going to get in. After all, she's already at the door; she can't just turn back now.
Although she had a strong desire to enter, she was well aware of her own limitations and knew that she did not yet have the ability to forcefully destroy the door.
Gu Xi paused for a moment, thought for a while, and then took out a pickaxe from his backpack and started digging the ground.
Since she couldn't get through from the top, she decided to dig a tunnel; surely she could get in underground.
She raised the pickaxe and slammed it down hard, the pickaxe striking the ground with a clang and sparks flying. However, this mining pickaxe was ineffective on the ground here.
With that one strike, the pickaxe in her hand was destroyed, and then the game notification came immediately.
[Game Hint: Special artifacts; do not destroy or mine them.]
This kind of thing...
Although she had anticipated difficulties in ground mining when she took out the pickaxe, she hadn't expected it to be completely indestructible. What was this thing? Could it be the island's foundation stone?
That's impossible. If the foundation of a personal boat can be destroyed, then the foundation stone on the seabed should be able to be destroyed as well.
Gu Xi stroked her chin, deep in thought. Although she appeared to be thinking, her mind was a complete blank.
"Okay! If you can't figure it out, then don't think about it for now."
Learning without thinking is futile; thinking without learning is dangerous. She is still in the learning stage and is simply thinking, but without enough information, clues, or fragments, wild speculation is also useless.
