At least for now, it seems that the driver has no intention of harming us.
Moreover, the conditions Lao Liu gave him, plus the constraints he is currently under, are definitely enough to make him suffer.
We can't let him keep going in circles here with us.
Moreover, I think there is some credibility to what he said, because although the navigation looks very accurate.
But that's only from the perspective of us laymen. From his perspective as a true expert, it might seem like there's some danger or that the course has already deviated from its course.
If that's the case, then this guy might have really discovered some danger?
I also noticed that the red dot on the navigation was always moving towards the stone house, which is the location of the blue-armored figure.
To be honest, although our location is quite far from us, it doesn't seem that far on this navigation app; it looks like it's right in front of us.
But at this moment, that place seemed to be being pulled by something, tilting towards a sea area diagonally behind it.
The edges of the screen were still flashing wildly, glowing with a red light and emitting a piercing beeping sound.
The hovercar's speed suddenly slowed down, completely different from before.
The driver had been using his hair to increase the car's speed, but now it seems the car's speed has decreased significantly.
In other words, the speed in this place is clearly no longer what it was just now.
And I noticed that the blue light of this energy field started to flicker through the car window, and the scenery outside suddenly changed.
What was once a somewhat open, muddy area has now vanished, replaced by a dense thicket of seaweed.
The seaweed grew so tall, it was as tall as a tree, which really surprised me.
"Master, look, this seaweed isn't in a normal shape at all!"
Lei Jijian was the first to notice this situation.
He quickly reminded me, because if he didn't tell me at this point, he might be afraid I wouldn't have noticed.
At this moment, the dark green leaves, covered in pale purple slime, slowly drooped down from the outside, even brushing against the windows of our hovercar, before slowly sliding down.
A rustling, scraping sound was heard, like a zombie gnawing on glass.
My heart skipped a beat, and I quickly looked around, but I found nothing there.
At that moment, even with the windows closed, I could clearly feel the fishy smell in the air getting stronger once again.
This doesn't taste like sea scabies at all.
It was the putrid smell from the excessive saltiness of the seawater.
"Could we have already reached the deep sea here?"
Why is there so much seaweed?
My heart sank, and I glanced at the map Zhou Pangzi had given me with my left hand. It clearly marked Haicaoju, which was in the opposite direction of the Stone House.
It's a place where the management stores some items.
Holy crap!
We've already arrived at this place...
My heart sank. I felt that the danger of this place was even greater than that of sea scabies!
Those guys were absolutely ruthless!
I had an important message for the driver, and he slowly drove off.
At this moment, he moved slightly, raised his hand and pressed his chest, and the blood hole in his chest slowly began to heal.
It was perfectly fine just a moment ago, but now, it's started bleeding profusely.
His face was deathly pale, but the driver remained remarkably calm.
He was muttering to himself.
"It seems... we really need some energy now! Otherwise, we'll veer off course!"
Although he spoke in a low voice, I heard him very clearly.
What kind of energy?
Holy crap...
My heart sank, but just as I was about to ask him, the girl spoke first.
"The energy you're talking about..."
The girl pressed for answers, but the guy ignored them. Instead, he reached out and slowly pulled the small note out of his work clothes pocket.
Holy crap! So that's what it was!
My heart skipped a beat.
I never expected this.
That note was the one we first saw, the one he had been clutching in his hand.
But now he has completely spread the note out in his hand, and I see a red mark drawn on it.
On the back are several lines of yellow writing.
It's like some kind of talisman.
The note was now wrinkled and stained with his blood; it had been perfectly clean just moments before.
But now it looks like the edges are all very wrinkled, almost frayed.
I couldn't make out the writing on it. Although I saw many similar things from my grandfather when I was a child, I couldn't understand this at all.
All I saw was the driver, who was holding a piece of paper in one hand and turning the steering wheel with the other.
But in an instant, he freed his hand and grabbed a small metal part on the passenger side; his movement was so fast I didn't even have time to react.
That speed was like someone who had practiced for a long time; it was completely beyond the speed of a normal person. To be honest, if I hadn't been watching his hands the whole time, I probably wouldn't have caught that little movement.
Immediately afterwards, he tightly wrapped the note around his little finger, and I noticed that his little finger was quite unusual.
His other men all had calluses on their hands, but his little finger was the only one that looked tender, as if it wasn't even his finger.
Normally, it's quite common for a driver to have calluses like that, but his little finger was so smooth and delicate; I simply couldn't believe it.
He simply wrapped the thing around his little finger three times, inside and out, and tied a knot at the base of the last nail.
The movements were so skillful and practiced that it almost made my heart ache.
"Master, what is this guy up to? I think he's going to cause some more trouble!"
Is he going to rip his own heart out? Didn't you just see some blood on his chest?
This guy is absolutely terrifying…
The lightning sword was something I was thinking about in my head, but I didn't say it out loud.
