People can always find the results they want from their self-identified "truth".
Qianye asked most of the people to stay in the shallows and keep a distance from the second island. He only sent three teams of three people to disperse on the beach and go deep into the island.
Although immersing yourself in cold sea water is uncomfortable and may cause hypothermia, it is better to be safe.
Counting Mu Su, 42 survivors seems to be a lot, but once something strange happens, the attrition speed will not be much slower than the second hand.
The first wave of exploration teams had already walked through the brown beach with a width of nearly 100 meters with extended footprints, close to the dead forest, and then sent back a safety signal.
So three more three-person teams set foot on the second island.
Players who logged in scatteredly formed a sparse net, arcing around the dry forest deep in the beach.
The people stranded on the shoal gradually approached the coast. Unexpectedly, the second island was safer than imagined - at least safer than the first island.
It will take time to determine whether it is really safe or whether there are undercurrents surging under the calm sea.
Soon, a team entering the dead forest discovered some kind of indescribable plant near the roots of the dead trees.
"It's like spider silk. It's thicker and tougher. It comes out of the soil like a plant and swings in the wind."
"I feel like a gray line drawn by a pencil."
Although there are lessons learned from "well-intentioned camps" like Eye Zhuhai, Qianye still advises players to avoid them and not touch them.
At the same time, after the team explored and confirmed that the shore was safe, everyone stepped onto the beach.
"I will keep an eye on Mu Su."
Wang Wen asked everything, and then kept an eye on Mu Su - he only planned to stare and do nothing.
What disappointed him was that no matter whether the whole team explored or went deep into the second island Musu, they did nothing.
Hmm... Wangwen Wenqie's excuse for this is: Mu Su will cover up his behavior after being exposed.
Soon the players discovered what the exploration team described as "spider silk" and "pencil thread". They were threads that emerged from the soil and floated in the void, with messy balls of hair like pencil sketches forming at the top.
"Like a dandelion, is that some kind of fruit?"
"It's so scary when the fruit grows like this...who would eat it?" SBD238 would rather chew the eyeballs of an island than eat this sketch of a happy ball of a cat.
"Why do you all look at me?" Mu Su shouted angrily: "This is prejudice! Do you think I will eat this kind of thing just because I am mentally ill?"
"I don't know if mental illness will eat you, but you will." A person named Wuyu Guizhou complained.
"This is slander! Just wait until I send a lawyer's letter!"
When no one noticed him, Mu Su's face quickly turned gloomy.
Damn it, now I can’t even try it...
He knows what it is!
Wang Wen Wen Qie, who secretly spied on Mu Su's emotional changes, screamed in his heart.
After a rough exploration, the players found that the second island is about one-third smaller than the first island - about the same as the first island without broken mountains. The terrain is gentle and there are no strange caves or weird traces.
More importantly, the players discovered an abandoned stone house in the center of the island, a product of the intelligent tribe.
The strange thing is that when they looked at the following islands from Duanshan Cave, they did not find this community of stone houses...
As usual, a team of three is sent to explore the uninhabited stone house community, and then the number of people is gradually increased until it is confirmed that there is nothing in the stone house community.
Literally nothing: no footprints, no doors, no furniture, except the stone house itself.
"I guess the stone house has been abandoned for a long time..."
Some stone houses have collapsed into piles of rubble.
And for some inexplicable reason, the plants that no longer grow make this abandoned stone house look "new".
But as they explored the stone house in depth, a player discovered that in the center of the village, a tall and solid stone house was engraved with vague patterns on its exterior, like a simple mural from the Stone Age.
"A mural? Why not write on it?"
"It should be that the writer is illiterate, which can rule out the work of ape-men in the Stone Age."
"Then you're still illiterate." Mu Su complained from the side.
"Superficial, this is just a data world composed of 1s and 0s." Words that ruined the atmosphere came from Xiao OvO's mouth.
Mu Su suddenly raised his head, a cold light flashed in his eyes. The next moment, Mu Su seemed to transform into a panther. Everyone only saw him bend his legs and bounce up. The next second, he was already pressing on Xiao OvO, and the paddle was inserted into Xiao.
OvO mouth.
"Then do you want to try death? Can you imagine the infinite horror? I have experienced three events. The first one was the Dark Disaster. There were a total of fifteen companions that time, and there were two people who survived two events.
Seniors exist, but do you know the ending? They were all killed in the darkness, only me and one other person survived. Do you want to know what it feels like to be killed by pure darkness? Do you want to see everything around you?
Turn into surging darkness. In the lightless night, have you seen with your own eyes the pain of darkness surrounding yourself? You piece of shit! Do you want to die?"
Wang Wen Wenqie was the first to rush up to control Mu Su, and others helped Mu Su get off Xiao OvO one after another. Xiao OvO got up and rushed up to punch Mu Su while Mu Su was being subdued. He was stopped by his horrified companions, who kicked and yelled at each other in the distance -

Qianye ignored the chaos around him and carefully observed the murals in the stone house, one after another in order——
[The main mission has been updated]
The sudden appearance of the system prompts shocked the players, and the chaotic fight also froze.
Qianye glanced at the updated main quest and rubbed his brows.
"Okay, we made a mistake...the second island is the 'safe house' base arranged for us by the plot."
Qianye cleared away the layers of fog and uncovered the clues.
"Following the normal procedure, when we land on the initial island, we will find the Eyeball Sea and Broken Mountain Cave."
Players will skip the apparently terrifying Eye Bead Sea, and then be attacked by mantis while exploring Broken Mountain Cave. After experiencing a possibly tragic failure, they will have no choice but to temporarily put aside the main mission and jump to the second island - so the first island and the second island
The large area between the two islands is a shoal that can be crossed by flowing water.
This is the normal route, instead of solving the mantis tribe, occupying the magpie nest and occupying the broken mountain cave.
Then--
Qianye raised his clear eyes and looked in the direction they came from.
Two miles away, the broken mountain face of the first island looks like a straight cliff, and the prominent cave looks like a piece of its belly has been hollowed out.
Then they will suddenly discover the cave on the fracture surface, try to explore and find the stained stone, and finally trigger it or eyeball it, completing the first stage of the main plot.
However, this preset "novice guidance" was disrupted by some accidents: they accidentally learned the information and weaknesses of the mantis, accidentally had the illusion that the Broken Mountain Cave was a "safe house", and accidentally received food supplies...
And the root of all this——
The player who realized something looked at Mu Su who looked innocent.
"Are you blaming me again?" Mu Su secretly threw away the oar, pitifully weak and helpless.
