Ten nautical miles is not too far.

As the speedboat gradually left Titan.

The sea trip became very depressing, the speedboat was pitifully small, and the activity environment was limited. Fortunately, You Wuchang's huge temptation allowed them to endure it.

The person at the helm is called Huyang.

He has a resolute and stern appearance, as still as a mountain, giving people the feeling of a rolling hillside.

But his driving skills are not proportional to his appearance.

Under his control, the speedboat was like a rocking car, as if it had cramps, and its brains were thrown out in the shaking.

Others cursed:

"Old Hu, can you fucking drive?"

"I think it's more comfortable to jump into the sea and swim across than to take a boat."

"Thank you, my kidney stones are healed."

"I'm really impressed. This thing is just like driving. Be more stable."

"Whose stinky feet are hitting me in the face? Get them away, or I'll chop them off!"

Huyang stood in the cab, listening to their complaints, glared at them, and shouted, "Shut up! When have we ever been to the sea? My driving skills saved the ship, so you should thank me!"

Shen Bei did not crowd in the cabin, but sat steadily at the bow.

No matter how it shook, Shen Bei remained motionless.

After all, the armor has adsorption capabilities, not to mention the smooth surface of the bow, which makes the adsorption ability more stable.

Shen Bei held a sniper rifle and kept looking at the sea.

Rock once said a proverb that when a ship sails into the sea, the seabed has already reserved a place for humans.

But more than ten minutes passed and the expected fierce battle did not come. The sea was as calm as a lake. Sitting at the bow and looking down, the surroundings were like still ink.

This kind of calmness does not make people feel at ease at all. It seems like the calm before the storm, which is suffocating and depressing.

"Hey, Shen Bei, are you scared?"

Huyang was shouting in the cab, smoking a cigarette.

Shen Bei looked back and said calmly, "It's too late to be afraid now."

"Haha, I can take you back, but my turning skills need to be improved." Huyang turned the steering wheel.

"Why are you asking me alone?"

"I just wanted to...how should I put it?" Hu Yang considered his words carefully. "Rumor has it, you're not very friendly to your teammates."

Shen Bei turned his head and continued to look at the sea ahead, his tone calm: "Rumors are more powerful than knives, but you can rest assured this time, You Wuchang's methods are very clever."

Huyang seemed to be reassured and operated the speedboat more steadily.

Gradually.

In Shen Bei's sight.

A huge object appeared right in front of the speedboat. It was an island. They had arrived.

The poplar reduces the engine's energy output, slowing the speed of the speedboat's propeller.

Relying on inertia, the speedboat glides on the sea.

"Guys, cheer up, we're almost to the island!"

Then Huyang shouted.

The team members in the cabin cheered and stood up.

It is a blessing to no longer have to suffer.

As the speedboat slowly approached the shore, the cheers gradually disappeared. All that was seen was eight ships of various sizes docked along the coast of the island. The ships were motionless like coffins placed on the sea.

Everyone was stunned by this incredible scene, and exclaimed:

"What the hell! Why is there a boat?"

"This isn't right. Are there other shelters exploring this island?"

"These ships haven't left, so doesn't that mean..."

"Damn, I knew this mission would be difficult to complete!"

"Burp~~You Wuchang is so full of this pancake."

……

The team members chattered for a long time.

Anyone who sees this scene will feel creepy.

The boats parked on the beach were of different sizes, some of which were much larger than the speedboats under the feet of the crowd.

This means that it can accommodate more people.

And since these ships haven't left, it only means that those who previously explored the island will never be able to leave...

Just thinking about it makes one's scalp tingle.

Looking at the island again at this time, a shadow was cast over everyone's heart.

"Shen Bei, what do you think? Should we retreat or continue?" Hu Yang asked Shen Bei nervously with a trembling voice.

Even though Shen Bei is not a person with super powers, Hu Yang and others seem to regard Shen Bei as their backbone.

After all, Shen Bei's combat skills are indeed high, and we have to acknowledge it. There is nothing to be ashamed of.

At this moment, Shen Bei laughed hoarsely and said, "This isn't the energy you used to have when you begged Rock to choose you for the mission. What are you afraid of? When a person dies, the birds fly to the sky. If you don't die, you will live forever."

Shen Bei slowly stood up and spoke again, his voice low and booming: "Our most terrifying enemy is not sea monsters, nor ferocious beasts, nor the unknown, but empty associations."

Shen Bei's few words instantly calmed the team members' emotions.

They began to draw their various weapons without saying a word.

As the speedboat approached the shore.

Shen Bei was not in a hurry to go to the island. He turned around and discussed with Hu Yang and others.

Definitely go to the nearby boat first to see what's going on.

Everyone jumped onto the nearest boat one after another.

Spread out and look.

Shen Bei stepped into the cab.

At first glance, there was no blood or chaos, and there was no shortage of energy in the power compartment. Everything was normal, except for the lack of humans.

"Shen Bei!"

Huyang called out outside.

Shen Bei left the cab and followed Hu Yang to the cabin.

The other team members also gathered here, staring intently at the line of bloody words on the wall:

"Be careful! Don't go to the island, we're on our own!! There's no one around us!! He's trying to escape! I don't want to be! I want to go back to the shelter, it's safe! On the island!"

Various logically different phrases are arranged in a chaotic manner and do not match each other.

It means that the person who left the blood words is mentally abnormal, which makes everyone feel a little creepy.

Although the logic is confusing, one can still get the meaning: this island is not safe.

Hu Yang took a deep breath and forced himself to suppress the shock in his heart: "What do you think?"

Shen Bei ignored him and said calmly, "Isn't this a good explanation that aligns with the actual situation? The island is dangerous. Rock made it clear before we set off, and everyone accepted it."

"If it said: Come and be merry, this is heaven. But that's not right."

Hu Yang was surprised when he heard this and swallowed hard: "You are really good at talking."

"It's just facts."

Shen Bei used the camera function of his armor to take a picture of the bloody words on the wall, then waved his hand: "Let's go, there's nothing to see here."

There really isn't much to see.

Instead of daydreaming here, you might as well go and take a look at other ships.

Everyone left the cabin, separated again, and began searching for other ships.

Still no signs of fighting or blood were seen.

It was as if everyone on board had voluntarily left the ship to go on an island trip and hadn't returned yet.

A few minutes later, Huyang called everyone together.

Everyone jumped onto the beach and officially stepped onto the island.

Hu Yang counted the number of people: "One, two, three... twelve people, all here."

"Let's not waste any more time, let's get going!"

Walk across the beach towards the forest in the distance.

It is called a forest, but there is not a single green leaf. All the hideous branches seem to be covered with a thick layer of rust. All the tree trunks seem to have tumors, with some places swelling up and some suddenly sunken.

Walking in it, you have the illusion of walking inside the human body.

"Everyone, pay attention. If you see anything strange, shout."

Huyang spoke ambiguously.

The strange things refer to two aspects, one is the unknown monster, and the other is the target of this mission.

Although You Wuchang did not give any specific tasks, he just asked them to collect "strange" things in general.

Everyone can simply find something they have never seen before and take it back, and the mission will be completed.

This is also the reason why Huyang asked everyone to keep their eyes open.

Not long after they started walking, a group of scattered footprints appeared on the ground. Seeing the footprints, everyone felt a little relieved. The footprints at least proved that other people had walked this road, so it should be safer.

I don’t know if my guess was right, but the 12 people walked for nearly two hours, and they didn’t see the monster that they were originally frightened of, and nothing unusual happened.

At the same time, no strange objects were seen.

Huyang pressed his hand and everyone began to rest on the spot.

When they gathered a pile of branches and started a bonfire, the aroma of the roasted white bread eased the tense atmosphere a little.

While eating, everyone speculated about what happened to those missing people.

"Which sanctuary do those boats parked on the beach belong to? There's no marking on them."

"Our speedboats don't have any standards. We're primarily active on land, and our access to the sea is limited. Who has the time to bother marking them?"

"You say a monster ate them? Like something from the sea."

"Can things from the sea crawl onto land?"

"Turtle, Turtle can do it."

"Fuck, speak more politely. Someone who doesn't know would think you are scolding us."

"We are all rough people, why are you pretending?"

……

Shen Bei did not join the discussion. He looked around warily. This strange forest was very weird. Apart from the sounds they made, there was no other sound, not even the chirping of insects or birds.

It is undoubtedly strange that there is no danger on this island.

Whether it was rumors, Rock's gossip, or the ships outside.

All of this proves that no island on the ocean is safe.

"Stop chatting. Let's find it quickly after we finish eating. The longer we stay here, the more dangerous it will be."

After hearing Shen Bei's words, the team members stopped chatting, started swallowing faster, briefly recovered their strength, and continued on their journey.

Everyone continued to move forward along that path, but the path seemed to have no end and continued to extend forward.

If it weren't for the sporadic footprints on the ground that kept changing, Shen Bei would have thought he was standing still.

When they had been walking for nearly three hours and their feet were sore, the forest suddenly disappeared and a stone building entangled in brown vines suddenly appeared in front of them.

The building looked somewhat dilapidated from the outside, and it was hard to tell whether it was a temple or a church. The place where the wooden gate should have been had disappeared, leaving only a pitch-black hole.

Everyone was stunned by this scene.

It was as incredible as being struck by lightning.

Hu Yang opened his mouth in surprise, his tone distorted:

"Why...why are there man-made structures on this island?"
