For a few days while I was recuperating, I couldn't stop thinking about the thing at the bottom of the sea.
And I had left a marker there before, so I was confident I could find it!
Moreover, this time, I wasn't planning to use the lifeboat again. Rowing back with my own hands last time was truly agonizing.
This time, I brought everyone from the camp onto the ship.
Although it was because I was going somewhere, the honor given was for everyone to go out to sea and have some fun.
This made the savages very excited.
They had long wanted to go out and see the world by boat, but because they didn't understand these things, they could only watch longingly.
Now that they were willing to take them out for a spin, they were overjoyed.
The women, however, were a bit apprehensive. But I didn't take out their boat; I took out the first one.
I had transported all the fuel and such, ensuring we wouldn't be stranded in the middle of the sea due to power issues.
All sorts of food were also loaded onto the ship. This time, I planned to stay for a day and a night before returning.
After all, if all of us went out together, it meant the home base would be unguarded.
Although there were strong walls, so there was no need to worry about anything else, it was better to be safe than sorry.
After making these preparations, we set off that night. Everyone had a banquet on the ship, and then we rested there.
Everyone had a great time. After spending some time together, the savages no longer felt any distance from us, and we all had a lot of fun.
As for me, with Lin Chun's help, I had the ship sail to the location I designated.
To my surprise, the ship's speed was much faster than I had imagined!
It only took about half a day to reach the location I had specified.
However, it was still deep into the night, so I didn't wake anyone else up.
I grabbed a set of diving equipment and jumped into the sea alone.
With this diving gear and my own abilities, I felt I could stay underwater for half a day without any issues.
After diving into the sea, I was still in the same spot.
Quite a few of the seaweeds and shellfish that I had driven away before had reattached themselves. However, this time, I didn't make too much of a disturbance. Instead, I observed carefully.
Looking down from above, it felt like an ancient, dilapidated city, but not as large. This time, I had plenty of time.
So I could observe it closely!
I distinguished it carefully, identified the entrance to this temple, and then descended.
When I landed on the ground, it gave me a somewhat unreal feeling. There was no longer an entrance, and the temple was mostly ruined. Only a rough framework remained.
I didn't know how long this structure had been submerged in the sea. Most of what could corrode had already done so.
As I was thinking, I walked forward step by step.
In a daze, I seemed to see a faint green light flickering within the temple.
I walked forward step by step, crossing the threshold and entering.
The place I was now should be the main hall, but there was nothing left around except for a few pillars that had corroded beyond recognition. There was nothing else.
I walked up to a pillar and observed it carefully, and my expression suddenly changed.
The Shepherd God's power within my body seemed to be pulled by something, surging towards the pillar. In the next instant, the pillar began to emit a green light.
I quickly retreated a few steps.
The surroundings began to tremble violently, as if something large was moving.
The ground also started to shake.
I nervously looked around!
Could it be an undersea earthquake?
Just then, I suddenly noticed that on the ground, which had been corroded for who knows how many years, a huge stone pillar was slowly moving.
Immediately after, an opening over a meter high appeared before me.
Seeing this opening, I paused slightly. I hadn't expected such a mechanism to exist in a place like this.
And this place had been corroded for so many years, yet this mechanism could still be activated.
How advanced was this technology?
I didn't have time to think too much about it. I checked my oxygen tank. I could still last about three hours underwater.
After a moment of hesitation, I walked in directly.
I had expected it to be completely dark inside, but to my surprise, as I entered, I found that I could see the path clearly.
This feeling was exactly the same as when I saw the Tree of Life!
"Could there be something related to the Tree of Life down here too?" I furrowed my brows and walked down step by step.
There was still seawater around, but it seemed that no other life forms existed within.
I walked down step by step for nearly half an hour, and suddenly a faint green light appeared around me!
Seeing this light, my expression instantly changed!
