Chapter 163 Red Sea 2
The next second, Ruo Yi understood.
The fatty's eyes were a little dim, possibly due to the lack of this power; he felt he lacked the confidence to protect them anymore.
"Don't worry, young master's arrangements won't go wrong."
Ruo Yi comforted him.
Hearing the words "young master's arrangements," the fatty also felt a little more confident.
After another day, the fatty's injuries gradually recovered. With Ruo Yi's support, he could stand and walk, but his speed was still slow. He had to rest after every few steps.
Lewandowski broke a thick branch off a tree at the entrance of the cave and used it to make several torches. He wrapped rags around one end of the torches, and Daqi's spare fuel was evenly poured onto the rags.
Lewandowski was very satisfied with his work. He said, "These torches are enough to provide us with light for more than twenty hours without a source of fire."
Lewandowski held up a torch and walked into the dark depths of the cave. Ruo Yi supported the fatty, following behind Lewandowski and Daqi.
This could be said to be the most pathetic state the team had ever been in since the fatty and Ruo Yi were dragged into the missing expedition team incident.
A savage led the way, followed by a cripple (Daqi), with a woman who had basically no combat experience, and finally dragging along a seriously injured patient.
If they really encountered any danger, they could only rely on their own luck.
The four walked more than five hundred meters, resting seven or eight times in between, mainly because the fatty slowed down the entire team's progress.
But no one complained, after all, the fatty's injury was caused by saving someone. The person who was saved wouldn't say anything, and those who saw the fatty's injury with their own eyes wouldn't say anything either.
After walking another five hundred meters, the slope of the passage inside the cave suddenly increased, and the structure of the rock also changed, gradually changing from the original quartzite to marble.
Further ahead, the marble gradually turned into warm and smooth jade, and the degree of transparency also greatly increased.
The fatty walked with difficulty, supported by Ruo Yi, and asked Lewandowski at the same time, "Lewandowski, old brother, have you ever seen the scene in front of you in other places before?"
Lewandowski raised the torch to see the situation in the entire space clearly. After repeated confirmation, he said, "I have explored many caves here. To be honest, this is the first time I have seen such a structure."
The fatty coughed up another mouthful of black blood. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said to Lewandowski, "According to...the rules of the simulated world, the distance we have traveled has already exceeded the preset size of the simulated world, right? Unless we have been going in circles..."
"It is impossible to go in circles. The slope of our passage and the angle of deviation to the left and right are within reasonable error values. Even if we are really 'going in circles', we are going around a very large circle. The distance we have traveled now is just a small arc."
Lewandowski used his own experience to deny the "going in circles" hypothesis. Then, there was only one answer.
Combined with their last memory in the torrent of the Black Bridge, they were sure that the space they were currently in was different from the simulated world.
The most direct evidence was the Red Sea.
The reason why the simulated world is called the simulated world is that everything in this space is exactly the same as the natural world on Earth, and everything has a reference in the real world.
But the Red Sea and the creatures in the Red Sea have completely subverted everyone's cognition. These creatures cannot be found as samples in the real natural world.
The fatty was thinking that if they were still in the skyscraper at this time, then the position they were in now must be getting closer and closer to the core of the skyscraper.
The further they went, the more transparent the rock structure of the cave passage became.
The warm and smooth jade rock was gradually replaced by transparent crystal blocks, and the entire cave became a transparent passage.
When everyone looked out through the crystal blocks, they discovered the mystery of this cave.
The cliff where the cave was located was surrounded by an endless Red Sea. The Red Sea at this time was like a pot of boiling red stew, and the creatures in the Red Sea were completely different from the creatures in ordinary oceans.
At this moment, a giant Red Sea creature suddenly rose from the bottom of the sea and floated to the surface. Its head was like a platypus, with a fusiform body like a fish, but without fins. The fins on both sides had evolved into webbed hands, and the tail had also evolved into webbed legs. Overall, it looked like a combination of a human and a fish.
The fatty roughly estimated that the monster in front of him was at least tens of meters long. If it were placed in the real world's ocean, it would also be a behemoth.
The mermaid monster repeatedly beat the water on the sea surface, but without any regularity, its two webbed hands frantically slapped its body.
Seeing this scene, everyone was wondering what the mermaid monster was doing.
Suddenly, the mermaid monster's body exploded with a "bang." Countless small fish poured out from the cracks in its body. These small fish had eaten all of the mermaid monster's internal organs and all of its meat. When the fish swarm dispersed, only a skeleton remained of the mermaid monster.
Although it was unknown how these small fish got into the mermaid monster's body, or how they ate it in such a short period of time, the scene in front of them was enough to shock everyone and let them know the disordered food chain rules of the Red Sea.
The larger the creature in the Red Sea, the less it necessarily had no natural enemies. There was no simple and direct food chain like "big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimp" in the Red Sea.
The skeleton sank to the bottom in the red stew-like Red Sea in a short while.
"Stay away from the Red Sea." - was everyone's inner thought.
