I looked up and saw that the compass house in front of me was completely different from the one where the blue armor appeared when we swam over!
This area is basically just a stretch of gravel, and the beach is more like a sandbar.
There were indeed several clusters of stone houses in the distance, but this place was completely unlike the residence of the Blue Armorer that we had found before.
Just as I was about to ask Lei Jijian, a voice in my head was telling me that the driver had made it very clear: we were to go inside.
I understand what he means, but since he's already led us for so long, why not see us off completely? Why make us walk this part of the journey?
"Is it up ahead?"
I smiled slightly, and the driver understood what I meant in an instant. He slowly turned around, and I saw his deathly pale face, clearly showing signs of extreme exhaustion.
However, it didn't seem like just being tired; rather, it was more like the paleness one feels after being promoted.
Before he could even answer, the girls screamed.
Because at that moment, although the driver's face was black, it looked as if there was a layer of skin on it, like a face that had been peeled off someone else's face.
"Don't...don't be afraid."
The driver moved his lips and squeezed out a sentence.
What's wrong with you?
"I work too long, and this happens. Actually, what you see in my body isn't really mine..."
That's why I want to learn driving skills from Lao Liu.
If I drive for even a little bit longer, my whole body will fall apart—my skin, my eyes, my hands, my heart, and everything you can see…”
Every word he uttered sounded so mechanical and empty, like that of a robot.
I even feel that his current state is somewhat similar to when we first entered the shallow layer and encountered those two safety officers.
This is not a state that a normal person should be in.
Or rather, this guy is just a bit of a pervert.
Not only was he a pervert, but I genuinely think he was even more terrifying and creepy than the two security personnel we met before.
But I didn't ask any more questions, because no matter what, our connection with this driver should end here.
Even if his face is terrifying, it's only something that will scare us for a little while.
Although that's what I thought, seeing this piece of skin attached to his face really reminded me of the corpses I saw when I was a child, those slowly sewn on.
I didn't talk to him about his appearance again, but I asked him once more why we were stopping here instead of taking us directly to our destination.
The driver pondered for a moment, then calmly nodded.
"To be honest, that's what I was thinking..."
I feel like I've let you all down along the way...
However, Guopeng told me not to go.
He lowered his head, somewhat embarrassed, after saying this.
I could tell from his expression that he was clearly a little guilty!
Could it be that this guy is really hiding something from us?
I asked again, but this time he didn't have the same guilty look or avoidance of eyes as before. He just faced me directly, then glanced at the girl next to me, and said in a very calm tone, "We only need to walk a few hundred meters to get there."
"And don't you have these wrist guards on your hands?"
I haven't seen this kind of thing much, but it's probably the kind that gets better the more you use it...
If we make good use of him, it can definitely have amazing effects!
After he finished speaking, his eyes were filled with excitement as he looked at my wrist and the girl's wrist.
I don't quite know what to say.
This is kind of funny. Hasn't the thing in my hand already evolved into the shape of a small gun barrel?
When did it turn back into the same wristband that the girl was wearing?
There were some things I didn't understand, but I didn't want to ask about them anymore.
I just felt that the driver's words were a bit abrupt. He said that only after he had seen the wristband on my wrist and the girl's wrist.
Could it be that in his eyes, the gun I just used to wake him up was just an ordinary wrist guard?
Or is it because what he saw was different from what I saw?
If that's really the case, then that would be quite strange!
When Luo Tianhe and I first went to Rabbit Ear Village, we saw Bai Su being surrounded by people. At that time, everyone saw him and we all thought he looked different.
So I wondered if the difference between what I saw and what the driver saw was due to a similar situation.
But what exactly happened? I didn't have time to think about it, nor did I have the energy to ponder it further.
"You can keep walking forward, it should be there in just a few more steps..."
The driver moved his lips slightly and then spoke.
His words even carried a hint of reluctance, coupled with a sense of worry for us.
I was immediately confused. What are you worried about? It's not like we're going, not you...
He told us to keep walking in, and the largest house in the middle with half a piece of broken iron stuck in its roof was Lan Jia's residence.
Upon hearing this, I instantly felt a sense of familiarity, but I also felt that the Blue Armor in that place, namely the Sunken Compass House, was not like this!
