04. The title is really starting to get serious

There is nothing more fitting than the name Dead Sea.

It has a frown-inducing bitterness and fishy saltiness. As long as it is more than one finger deep, it is as deep and unfathomable as the bottom. There is no living thing, no vitality, and the mark of the abyss is engraved. Day after day, year after year, I look at the sea.

Cliff.

It was approaching 10 o'clock in the morning in the main world, and the sanity value was restored to full value. Transparent Bridge and others moved the planks to the boat and prepared to set off.

Some of the onlookers recognized them and suggested sailing together, but they were declined by the transparent bridge.

The more people in a voyage, the better. Although more people can reduce the sanity value and reduce the speed, and even prevent the sanity value from decreasing or even recovering, having too large a target is a big trouble.

Small fish passing by may not be too lazy to open their mouths. A large group is another story.

And there is no guarantee that players will follow instructions.

Lord Grim was a little dissatisfied with her refusal. In his opinion, more people are always better. As for causing trouble... who can cause more trouble than Mu Su?

The wooden plank was placed on the bow of the boat, and with the push of Blazing God, they stepped onto the boat. The two boats swayed side by side and drifted away from the beach.

The undulating sea surface was clearly pushing the ship toward the shore, but the two ships were still moving in the same direction.

Tens of meters offshore, Transparent Bridge and others discovered that the last wooden boat was following it out to sea and crashed behind it not far away.

"They are following us." Wen Xiang noticed the boat not far from the shore behind him.

There were six players sitting on the boat, following at a slightly slower pace.

Chi Shen didn't even look back: "My legs are on them, so just follow them if you want."

Lord Grim was even more happy, finally no longer having to be in the same boat as Mu Su.

Before boarding the ship, the seats were reassigned. Lord Grim and Transparent Bridge exchanged seats.

It's definitely not about averaging IQ.

After a hundred meters from the shore, the wooden boat gradually turned to the left and forward until the bow pointed directly east.

What followed was a peaceful and boring journey. However, the boat behind didn't think so. After half an hour of sailing, there began to be faint sounds of quarreling.

At the same time, at the end of the line of sight ahead, mist appeared on the sea.

Compared to the first panic, everyone was much calmer and more in the mood to observe the foggy sea area.

With the fog as the boundary, a dividing line appears between the offshore sea and the sea of ​​fog. On this side of the dividing line, the Dead Sea has slight waves. Although it is lifeless, there is always some sound of waves.

On the other side, the water is as dark as an abyss, calm and waveless, and a quiet mist covers the sea.

It belongs to another world.

As they got closer, the commotion in the boat following them became louder. It was obviously the first time they saw mist there.

Lord Grim had an inexplicable sense of superiority, and even straightened his back a little. He turned his head and looked behind him, only to see Mu Su on the boat next to him looking at him with a teasing smile. His eyes seemed to say: I

We all know what you think.

He blushed and turned around to sit stiffly.

"Tell me...how deep is this water..." Wen Xiang lay on the edge of the boat, stretched out his palms, touched the sea water with his fingertips, and followed the boat to draw the dividing line.

Mu Su responded casually: "You might as well ask what's in the water."

"Eh?!" Wen Xiang was so frightened that she retracted her hand and asked timidly, "Is there something in there..."

"There are little monsters in the temple and strong winds, but there are many bastards in the shallow pool. It's at least several kilometers down here. Do you believe that there is nothing?"

"Is it a fish or..."

Mu Su shrugged: "Who knows, it's dark down there, I'm afraid it's not just for fun."

In view of the credibility of what Mu Su said, neither Transparent Bridge nor Blazing God spoke out in defense. This undoubtedly fueled his arrogance, and he kept clamoring to tell stories.

Transparent Bridge suddenly raised his eyebrows: "If you are not honest, I will tell Karen your address."

This worked better than anything else. Musu immediately covered his mouth and made a zipper motion.

"Ah...? Are you talking about me?" The sleepy Kallen looked up in confusion.

The episode passed, and silence returned to the sky above the boat.

In silence, in the mist, the two ships were side by side. Their wakes silently made ripples outward.

The transparent bridge serves as a guard. Every once in a while, you have to scan for a week and pay attention to whether there is anything in the surrounding area that will accelerate the decline of the sanity value.

Another small boat may still be following behind, but they can no longer see it. The mist envelopes the surroundings, and the visibility is less than fifty meters.

Mu Su, who couldn't take any time off, took out the door latch and paddled in the water out of boredom.

Floating forward in silence. Feeling the idle transparent bridge supporting my chin, I subconsciously cast my gaze on the moving door latch in Musu Water, and moved with it.

until--

Mu Su, whose hands were slippery, lost his grip and the door latch slipped into the water, disappearing in an instant without even splashing.

"Hello..." An uncontrollable cry came from Transparent Bridge's throat. The corners of her lips twitched slightly, and her eyes slightly curved with a smile.

Then he saw Mu Su looking at him with dead eyes.

The smile faded slightly, Transparent Bridge said: "You don't want to blame me, do you?"

"Hey..." Mu Su looked like he was seen through, and took out the Fujiang ax from his waist.

【Let’s chop something!】

While Fujiang Ax was cheering, Musu picked it up and leaned out of the boat's edge.

"Do you want to use an ax to fish out the door latch?" Transparent Qiao asked curiously. Following Mu Su's way of thinking, she thought of this possibility.

"Are you awake?" Mu Su looked like an idiot and shook the Fujiang ax in his hand: "Use the ax to fish out the door latch? Can you give me a try?"

[Musu Musu, I’m a little dizzy]

Transparent Qiao twitched the corners of her lips, calmed down slightly and asked: "Then what are you going to do?"

Mu Su went back to the outside of the ship and used a Fujiang ax to carve a hidden mark on the side of the ship where the door latch fell: "The door latch fell from here. As long as I carve a mark on the ship, I can find it when I go into the water to fish it out after the shore."

Already."

"..."

Transparent Bridge hesitated to speak, and hesitated to speak. In the end, he could only watch Mu Su triumphantly finish carving and put the Fujiang ax back on his waist.

Forget it. He didn't want to jump into the sea to find the best result.

Transparent Bridge comforted himself like this, looking around to check his surroundings.

When looking forward, the sanity value suddenly changed.

It's not a sudden decrease, but... the rate of decline in sanity points is picking up.

What's going on?

The first thing she thought about was whether she had met other players. Then, the ship's hull shook violently, which stopped her thinking.

The other boat was exactly the same, as if it hit something, ripples spread out from the bow of the boat to the bottom of the water.

The remaining people, who either dozed off or cut out the game, woke up and looked around in panic. Then their eyes fell on the transparent bridge lying on the bow of the ship, reaching out to touch it.

Her short hair hung down, and there was no reflection in the Dead Sea. The transparent bridge's palm dipped into the cold water and slowly moved downward. When her wrist was about to sink in, she touched something solid.

It's a rock.

"What did you touch?" Wen Xiang asked softly, and she saw the transparent bridge's arm stagnate.

"Rock." Transparent Bridge breathed out, propped himself up and looked ahead.

The sea of ​​fog is still dead. There are no shadows looming in the mist.

She thought for a while, then slowly moved her body to the bow of the boat and dipped her feet into the water.

"Wait..." Wen Xiang was anxious and was about to speak out to dissuade him.

He saw that Wen Xiang had already stepped on the water with his feet, and slowly stretched his hands to both sides to maintain balance.

Her body completely left the wooden boat and stood in the water.
