Doubt. (Chapter 16)
Having had prior diving experience, Ye Sheng was not as panicked as the last time she saw the giant clam. Instead, she calmly shone her flashlight in the direction she had just come from, wanting to get a clear look.
Now within Gu Luoyu's psychic power range, Ye Sheng knew she wouldn't be harmed.
Naturally, her courage had increased significantly. Of course, it was also because she had witnessed Gu Luoyu in action several times. Although she didn't know where Gu Luoyu had found a miraculous elixir, her strength had undeniably improved a lot!
She has become super strong now!
Even in the ocean, known as a human forbidden zone, those polluted sea creatures were no match for Gu Luoyu. Well, that was limited to shallow waters. As for the deep sea, forget it!
Before Ye Sheng arrived in the wasteland world, the deep oceans of her original world had not been fully explored. However, once the footage of those exploration records was broadcast, it shocked countless people.
The creatures in the deep sea were enormous, as if they had lived for thousands of years.
Not to mention the areas humans where had not yet set foot, which were filled with curiosity, confusion, and fear.
While thinking about these things, Ye Sheng's movements were not slow. However, after sweeping her flashlight around, she found nothing unusual. The blue-black reflection had disappeared, along with the feeling of being stared at.
This made Ye Sheng tilt her head in confusion, a sense of uneasiness in her heart. She always had a bad feeling.
After all, if it were just a reflection, it might have been fish, shrimp, or crabs, which would be nothing unusual. But coupled with the feeling of being stared at intently, it was different. Ye Sheng couldn't describe the feeling she had just experienced. That gaze felt like a burning flame, falling on her and making her extremely uncomfortable.
“Knock knock.”
Just as Ye Sheng was wondering if she should look around again, Gu Luoyu swam over and tapped Ye Sheng's helmet, immediately drawing Ye Sheng's attention back. At the same time, she remembered that they were still on a mission.
It was not free time.
So, she smiled at Gu Luoyu and waved her hand, indicating that she was fine.
If the other party had targeted her, they would definitely appear again later, so there was no need for her to search everywhere. She just needed to wait patiently. However, during the dive, Ye Sheng had already decided to stick with Gu Luoyu and absolutely not leave her side for a single minute!
Never give bad guys any chance!
Fortunately, the second exploration mission ended successfully. This time, not only Gu Luoyu and Ye Sheng had gained something, but everyone else also found some strange items, although their specific value was unknown.
Therefore, when they got ashore, the group who had been exploring by diving were not as exhausted as they were the first time. Instead, they excitedly ran towards Dr. Na Nali, eagerly presenting their findings and waiting for a quote.
However, unlike the excited group, Dr. Na Nali was not very interested.
With the best already seen, who would still be interested in ordinary goods!
If he, Na Nali, wanted to see something, he would look at the best. Thinking this, Dr. Na Nali's gaze turned to Gu Luoyu, his eyes behind the lenses filled with anticipation, wishing he could take away all the good things Gu Luoyu had found.
As the strongest in the diving operation, what Gu Luoyu found was definitely not ordinary, just like the golden pearl she brought back last time.
Although the golden pearl's temperature was too high to be easily researched, Dr. Na Nali was not an ordinary person. Even though the current environment was simple and lacking tools, he still overcame the difficulties and made some unexpected discoveries from the golden pearl.
This was a very good development for the facility!
It would be even better if he could obtain the golden pearl, allowing for more thorough research instead of having to worry about damaging it and being held accountable by Gu Luoyu.
Unfortunately, Dr. Na Nali's gaze was like throwing a charm to a blind man. Gu Luoyu didn't even bother to look at him, directly taking Ye Sheng back to the tent to rest.
Giving the golden pearl she brought back last time to Dr. Na Nali for research was already a very generous act. But don't expect to always benefit from her. After all, Dr. Na Nali didn't have many good things in his hands now.
“AhnYuu, I'm fine. I'm just a little dizzy. I'll be fine after eating something.”
This dive was a bit far. As Ye Sheng swam back, she started to feel dizzy. It wasn't a serious problem, just low blood sugar, but it startled Gu Luoyu.
The resistance in the water will consume more human energy. For a powerful esper like Gu Luoyu, even swimming for tens of thousands of meters wouldn't make her pant. Naturally, she didn't notice this.
Therefore, even though Ye Sheng said she didn't need it, Gu Luoyu insisted on using her psychic power to weave a black long mat, letting Ye Sheng sit on it, and personally pulling her back.
This action shocked the others who were also diving. They were all ordinary people, and naturally, they were extremely tired, only persevering with their excitement. However, looking at Ye Sheng, she had already achieved transportation in the sea, not needing to exert any effort herself.
She could lie back comfortably.
It's truly human nature to compare oneself to others and get angry!
Despite their envy, they did not feel jealous. After all, Gu Luoyu was Erensu, that bloodthirsty madman. If they were to stay beside such a person, they would be disenchanted even if they didn't die.
So, one should only take on what they can handle and not risk their lives.
Those who could conquer a madman were warriors. They always felt admiration, and wished they could ask Ye Sheng for an autograph.
Unaware of her “high and mighty” status in the eyes of others, Ye Sheng immediately collapsed as if she had no bones as soon as she returned to the tent. The fatigue from swimming hit her. Even with casting a healing spell, it didn't help her recover.
Although the physical fatigue and weakness were healed, the mental exhaustion needed sleep to recover.
Gu Luoyu looked down at Ye Sheng's lifeless expression and couldn't help but smile. Her red eyes were filled with tenderness as she gently patted Ye Sheng's back, comforting her, “Rest for a while if you're tired. Next time, we'll use a vehicle to dive, and it won't consume so much energy.”
“Mhm, mhm.”
Ye Sheng nodded vigorously at these words. She finally understood what it meant to be utterly exhausted. It would be foolish not to take the shortcut!
After easily coaxing Ye Sheng to sleep, Gu Luoyu waited for a while before emerging from the tent. The gentle smile she had shown to Ye Sheng had long since disappeared.
She glanced at Ye Hei Ya, her red eyes flashing with a cold light. The other party's gaze was evasive, as if wishing to hide in a crack. However, it was ultimately a dream.
Because in the next moment, Ye Hei Ya heard Gu Luoyu's voice, “I believe your prophetic ability has improved. Now, tell me the follow-up to your last prophecy!”
