The rulers in this shallow layer, what they explored and planned, was nothing more than a piece of land that had already been ruined.
The east lacked the right timing and location to begin with, so forcibly creating a person or place to do so was futile.
It is impossible to achieve true prosperity.
Thinking about this, I even feel that if that city center plan had actually been implemented on Zhou Pangzi's side back then, perhaps there wouldn't have been so many complicated things.
Not only that, if that were the case, Mr. He and Xiao Zhang probably wouldn't have died at all.
There are far too many dirty things going on beneath the surface, and all the bloodshed should be borne by those in charge!
At this moment, I was still looking around at the huge skylight in front of me, but the surrounding scenery really hadn't changed much.
You could even say that the scene before us was almost identical to the route Lao Liu took us back to this security checkpoint.
At that very moment, I also caught a very familiar scent.
This seems to be the taste the girl was describing!
However, upon closer inspection, I realized that this was not the same fishy smell I had experienced in the thick fog. Instead, it smelled like the kind of fishy smell one would expect from someone who had just eaten something and whose mouth was still bleeding.
It has a purely fishy smell with absolutely no sweetness.
After all, that sweetness was something Boss He specifically mentioned; the taste was entirely from the candy he had eaten mixed into that mist, so how could it possibly have any connection to the outside of this shallow safety helmet?
As I pondered this, I carefully sensed the surroundings again. Although the windows were closed, I could still feel the murderous aura, or perhaps a daring idea was slowly forming in my mind.
Could it be sea scabies again?!
The thought of this immediately casts a shadow over me.
After all, when we were in the deep sea at the beginning, we were completely subdued by this thing.
Those guys always travel in large groups, and they're the kind who eat whoever they see.
After all, who would bother to wander around the deep sea? It's not a place for humans.
If the girl hadn't mentioned going to this place in the first place, I wouldn't have come at all.
If this smell really comes from scabies mites that haven't yet appeared yet, then that's terrifying!
This place isn't even as far as Blue Armor yet, let alone deep sea, so I think it's highly unlikely to be one of those man-eating sea scabies swarms.
It's even less likely to be a ferocious adult sea scabies mites.
The only connection that still holds is with that Xiao Zhang from before, and the things he encountered.
But those were decades or even more than a decade ago, how could they possibly happen to us again?
Moreover, this place has now broken free from the sphere of shallow rule.
Could it be that those administrators can extend their reach here, or even deploy a well-trained army of scabies mites?
I was filled with confusion.
"Yiyi, don't you think this feeling here is a bit like sea scabies mites?"
I opened my mouth slightly.
To be honest, I didn't want to tell the girl about this directly, since she was already somewhat upset, and telling her directly might make her feel even more complicated and upset.
This was not a good thing at all, as it would only cause his mental defenses to collapse further. After all, we hadn't even reached Blue Armor yet, and the scenery around us had already made us somewhat mentally broken, which was already quite distressing.
However, after some internal struggle, I still felt I had to tell the girl about it.
After all, if she continues to believe that there are still fake corpses inside, or the same thick fog that Boss He mentioned before, I think she would be even more devastated.
After listening to what I said, she slowly pondered it for a while.
Then it seemed like everything became clear.
"Brother, what you're saying might actually be true!"
As soon as I finished speaking, the girl nodded in surprise.
I was completely dumbfounded.
Just now, she still thought it was likely the scent from inside the white mist, or perhaps the fake corpse had been stealing it.
But now he's gesturing at me with a look of surprise.
Even though the two of us were talking like this behind us, the bearded driver in front of us continued to drive seriously, completely unaffected by our presence.
After the girl nodded, she added, "Brother, the fishy smell is getting stronger!"
I took a closer look, and indeed, it did seem to be the same scent we had smelled before.
I can never forget the smell of those scabies worms; it's not just a basic fishy smell, but also has a slightly sticky feel to it.
At this moment, I also thought of what Fatty Zhou had mentioned to us before, which was about the guy he saw when he went to collect sea cucumbers in that shallow suburban area.
He was completely drained by a swarm of insects of unknown origin.
Although it was Zhou Pangzi who relayed the story to us, it felt like it had happened to us.
It's still so vivid in my memory. Thinking about it now, I wonder if we'll run into something like that around here too?
If that's the case, then I'll pin all my hopes on the bite resistance of this bearded car, that is, this hovercar.
If we get bitten off halfway through, we'll just become a feast for those insects!
Fatty Zhou also mentioned that when he went to that place, he encountered a group of insects. If it weren't for the yellow blessing that Boss He had left him, he might have ended up like that guy and never made it back.
Thinking about this, I was quite taken aback.
The girl instinctively touched the dew-covered branch in her pocket immediately.
Indeed! We have too much stuff on us, and that's what attracts those monsters!
It wasn't just the dew-covered branches on the girl's body, but also my sea marrow—these two things were enough to attract those sea scabies worms!
Whether it's an adult or a marine scabies larva, which one doesn't like this stuff?
In comparison, I think the bearded driver in front of us is surprisingly insensitive.
The girl and the two items I was wearing didn't cause him to sense the slightest energy fluctuation.
There are two possibilities: either the driver genuinely doesn't care, or he simply doesn't understand these energy-related matters.
