My different world is game mode.

"Your current condition is due to your fusion with Zoroa's petrification field. In essence, it is not death, but an abnormal change of the body."

The man's soul remained silent about Lindsay's judgment.

He could understand the meaning of the young man's words - the other party wanted to free himself from the petrified state and even return to the real world.

But it has been sleeping in the Lost Sea for tens of thousands of years.

He had already accepted his fate and ending.

The things he occasionally saw in spirit form also confirmed to him that it would be impossible for him to leave.

"..."

"My friend, I am very grateful for your kindness."

The man's soul wanted to refuse politely, but was interrupted by Lindsay:

"Listen, I have a potion."

"Whether it's caused by a knife or an axe, or physical damage or even limb loss. As long as it's a physical problem, drinking this will solve it all."

“It’s useless.” The man’s soul continued to shake his head. “Even if there is such a magical potion, my body cannot use it. After all, you can’t make a stone statue speak…”

"Pfft-"

Before the man's soul could finish his words, he was attracted by the clear laughter at the side.

He turned around and looked.

He saw the girl who had woken him up, standing beside him and laughing softly with her hands covering her mouth, as if she had just heard something very interesting?

And then.

Gudong Gudong——

The man's soul turned his head sharply.

The next second, he witnessed a magical scene with his own eyes.

Right in front of the stone statue of her own body, Lindsay took out a bottle of potion and handed it forward.

[Potion: Flesh Restructuring Potion]

[After drinking the potion, the drinker's body diseases and negative influences will be immediately cleared, and the broken limbs will be reassembled to restore the body to a complete state; this potion cannot restore the essence or save the dying wounded. ]

[Precious body repair potion, high value. ]

"..."

The man's soul looked stunned.

Lindsay did not pour the potion into the statue, nor did she put it into its mouth, so the petrified body naturally did not move at all.

But it is just such a 'passing' action.

The potion in the bottle disappeared out of thin air, and a powerful attraction came from his body.

"what?"

The man's soul had no time to react.

His eyes went dark and he was instantly absorbed back into the soul-hungry body.

……

After a few seconds, the man's vision gradually returned to normal.

His breathing, heartbeat, and the feel of the ground beneath his feet were all transmitted to his nervous system in an orderly manner.

"My...body...is stone..."

There was still a trace of confusion in the man's eyes.

But now he has bid farewell to the peculiar perspective in the soul state.

What reappeared before his eyes was the heart of the evil beast from the deep sea, which was illuminated by the lantern!

"..."

"Ka...Ade..."

After being in the spiritual state for a long time, the man has long forgotten how to control his body.

He opened his mouth and tried to speak, but could only utter a few incoherent syllables.

Fortunately, Lindsay and Walla Walla were both using the [Gamer] skill. By turning on the corresponding linguistics, they could roughly understand each other's meaning.

"I…thank you very much…"

Lindsay shook her head slightly:

"No need to thank you."

"The information you provided us alone is worth more than this bottle of potion."

Having said this, Lindsay opened her bag.

He took out about a week's worth of daily supplies from his stockpile and left them to the man in front of him:

"Next, we have to find a way to solve the problem of the [Capital of Law]."

“These supplies are stored here.”

"If we successfully open a passage back to the real world, you should know how to leave?"

The man who regained his life nodded vigorously.

After Lindsay and Wala Wala confirmed the situation, they also prepared to leave.

At this moment of farewell, the man controlled his unfamiliar body and stumbled after her.

He grabbed Lindsay's arm:

"I...you...this."

The man's words were stuttering and not fluent, but he still forcefully stuffed a small stone tablet into Lindsay's hand.

[Accessory: Expedition Certificate]

[After equipping, all attributes will be slightly increased; obtain the status of [Expeditor]. ]

【“Friends from the future.”

"Then just keep moving forward, stepping on our corpses."】

[The long years have caused most of its strength to be lost, and its value is moderate. 】

"..."

Lindsay accepted the [Certificate of Expedition], and the man in front of him continued stumblingly:

"Friends... go to the bottom of the sea."

"There... the end of the ocean... all the way down... we'll get there sooner or later!"

"You...have a safe journey."

The man who had regained his body also knew that the man and woman in front of him were about to embark on a more dangerous journey.

He gave the final hint before relaxing and sitting on the ground.

He watched the two of them leave with respect.

On the other side, Lindsay and Walla Walla returned the same way, and the latter did not forget to joke:

"Lindsay, the bottle of potion you just used must be worth a lot of money, right?"

"As far as I can remember, only the potion made from the extremely rare Phoenix Grass can have a similar effect."

Lindsay just smiled softly:

“For whatever it’s worth — now, it’s being used where it’s most needed.”

Walla Walla also laughed.

The emotional artist girl naturally expressed her feelings about this brief encounter:

"A story from the distant past that no one knows."

"An ordinary person joins an expedition team. At the last moment, he chooses to gamble on a tiny possibility, giving up his own life to show the way for those who come after him..."

Lindsay nodded and said:

“He has been very helpful to both Augustine and us.”

Wala Wala also affirmed:

“I want to spread this story!”

"There is a huge gap between awakened people and ordinary people, but the noble choice is the same!"

At this point, Lindsay suddenly remembered a question they had forgotten.

"By the way, why did these ancient explorers come to the Lost Sea?"

Wala Wala was also stunned.

When Lindsay reminded her, she also remembered the problem that the two of them had forgotten.

However, the girl did not hesitate for too long. She gave a solution in an optimistic tone:

“This problem is easy to solve!”

"Once the battle here is successfully concluded, we will go and ask him again!"

Lindsay nodded naturally:

"Okay, we'll see you again."

"..."

Following the breathing path of the deep sea beast, the two returned all the way back to the top of the island.

The cold sea breeze still blew over the gray island.

But Lindsay and Wala Wala's goals are completely different from when they first arrived.

They walked straight to the seashore and looked down at the water.

——The waves in the lost sea are still strong.

The dead silent world was disturbed by this little story.

Lindsay and Walla Walla stared down at their feet.

The sea water that the two had tried their best to avoid contact with before symbolized the end of all things and had been flowing like it does now for millions of years.

At this moment, it has become their target to be conquered.

"Lindsay, we have to think of a solution."

"After being in contact with the water of the Lost Sea for a long time, even if we are quite powerful, we will definitely be affected - huh? Why are you taking pictures of me?"

While Wala Wala was still thinking about what to do, she felt Lindsay pat her shoulder.

The girl turned her head and looked

As Lindsay made this move, magic patterns in the shape of water droplets appeared on her body.

Lindsay equipped the water element's [Mark of the Origin] to Wala Wala:

“Don’t worry about the seawater.”

"You put this equipment on, and I will use the [Ecosphere Radar] myself."

"This way, we can all move freely in the Sea of Lost Paths."
