292: Chapter 292 Arrival, Unknown Seas
While the two of them were researching their Talent.
china City.
Great Wall of Fire finished bragging to his group members and happily opened his friends list.
Ever since he added the Boss as a friend, he bragged to everyone all day, constantly talking about how much the Boss valued him.
Of course, he kept his mouth shut about the biggest secret and didn't let it slip.
He scanned his list with a smile, his gaze landing directly on the pinned friend at the top.
When he saw the gray avatar, he froze.
He rubbed his eyes, confirmed it repeatedly, and then fell to the ground with a thud.
"Bo-Boss, he..."
Great Wall of Fire's mouth trembled uncontrollably.
After a long while, he scrambled up, his hands shaking as if he had Parkinson's, and it took him a long time to open Samo's chat window.
"Tea-tea-team leader, something ba-ba-bad happened."
Taking a deep breath to steady himself, he continued: "Boss, he..."
"The Boss is fine, don't worry, go get some rest."
Samo interrupted him before he could finish.
Instantly, Great Wall of Fire froze in place.
"What did you say? The Boss is fine? But his avatar is gray."
"It's normal, the Boss went to a world outside the survival game, so his avatar is naturally gray."
Samo shook his head with a smile, "Instead of worrying about the Boss, you'd be better off honing your Talent skills so you can assist him well when he needs you."
"A world... outside?"
Great Wall of Fire's pupils dilated, and he kept repeating the words.
He wasn't the only one.
In other directions, Players in various regions also glanced at the leaderboard inadvertently.
Upon discovering that china had disappeared, they exclaimed in shock.
"Look at the leaderboard!"
"What's there to look at? You're always making a fuss. It's probably just the china God increasing his strength again, nothing to see."
"No, just look..."
"Look at your mother's hammer, stop nagging."
"Holy crap, where is china?"
"Oh my god, don't tell me china logged off?"
"Ah?!!!"
"@District One, why did your Boss disappear?"
"Come out and explain, why is china gone?"
District 1 Players noticed the commotion and opened the regional channel in confusion.
With just one glance, they were stunned.
"Holy crap, where's the Boss?"
"@goddess ship, Big Sister Head, where did the Boss go?"
"Damn it... it wouldn't be..."
"You above, shut your mouth. The Boss is wise and mighty, how is that possible?"
"I... I didn't say anything..."
Luo Li wasn't in a hurry. After chatting with The Five Women in the group for a while, she came out to explain:
"What are you howling about? Shut your mouth for yours truly!"
"The Boss is doing just fine. He just had a round with yours truly, and now he's gone to explore. Everyone do your own thing and stop nagging."
Hearing Luo Li's roar, the District 1 Players breathed a sigh of relief, then asked with some suspicion:
"Does the Boss have such heavy tastes?"
"Wuwuwu, Boss, oh Boss, you have sacrificed so much for our district."
"Boss, you've suffered, wuwuwuwu."
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Big Sister Head is a square, a square! How could the Boss bring himself to do it."
"..."
Luo Li gritted her teeth.
The other The Five Women burst into laughter.
As for the world channel, they didn't bother to explain.
After all, even without Chen Fan, District One was still the strongest region, and what others thought didn't matter.
But the District 1 Players couldn't stand the various suspicions and wailing in the channel, so they took the initiative to explain.
Once they heard that china had gone to explore, the Players curled their lips and dispersed.
...
"Death God, are you sure it's down here?"
Chen Fan looked at the bottomless trench in front of him, hesitating slightly.
This trench lay across the sea extremely abruptly.
What was strange was that despite such a deep trench in the middle of the sea, the surrounding seawater was still flowing normally.
It was just that all the seawater avoided the trench.
"Yes, the City of the Demon Dragon is down there," Death God gave a definitive answer.
"What a headache," Chen Fan shook his head.
This trench not only isolated the seawater but even isolated his Exploration.
Even with the divine staff's bonus, his Exploration couldn't penetrate the trench at all.
"So, are we going down?"
Jiu Jiu leaned in and whispered.
Chen Fan pondered for a moment, "We definitely have to go down, but we can't do it rashly."
"Davian."
"Yes, my master."
Davian thumped his chest, and the Mechanical Dragon began to change its form.
Roar—
After a roar, the giant dragon slowly flew toward the trench.
Chen Fan and the other person observed continuously through multiple cameras.
Five hundred meters.
One thousand meters.
Two thousand meters.
The Mechanical Dragon descended nearly five thousand meters, still without reaching the bottom.
"Come back, no need to go any further," Chen Fan frowned and said in a deep voice.
"Yes, Master."
Davian piloted the Mechanical Dragon back to the sea surface.
After some distortion, it transformed back into the destroyer state.
Chen Fan took a deep breath and looked at Jiu Jiu: "Let's use the same method."
"You mean..." Jiu Jiu's eyes lit up.
Chen Fan smiled, picked up Jiu Jiu, and jumped into the control room of the fortress.
The fortress expanded rapidly, encompassing all the warship.
Unlike last time, they might face turbulence this time, so Chen Fan left a lot of seawater inside the fortress to act as a buffer.
Ready, Chen Fan took a deep breath and recalled all the Crew Member into his space.
After checking carefully and finding nothing left behind, Chen Fan activated the shield and steered the fortress toward the trench.
"Let's go, let's turn up the heat on these creatures in the gutter."
Chen Fan chuckled, and the fortress plunged into the trench, beginning a long free fall.
Jiu Jiu was so scared that she closed her eyes tightly, gripping Chen Fan's right hand with her left.
Chen Fan narrowed his eyes, counting in his heart.
"One"
"Two"
"Three"
"..."
"200"
Boom—
Just as he counted to 200, a loud noise rang in their ears.
Immediately after, there was a continuous gurgling sound.
Seawater passed through the tiny holes in the outer wall of the fortress, pouring in continuously.
The impact pushed the fortress into the deep sea.
"Phew..."
"Two hundred seconds, that's a drop of over ten thousand meters."
Chen Fan let out a long breath and squeezed Jiu Jiu's hand slightly: "We're here."
"Mm."
Jiu Jiu rubbed her throbbing head and also let out a long breath.
The fortress slowly surfaced, and the holes around it opened.
Only then did the two of them clearly see the world around them.
Unlike in the Night Instance.
The sky here was not obscured by fog-like or smoke-like Tentacle Monster.
Instead, it was a pitch-black night sky, devoid of stars or moon.
To the west, south, and north, there was only the vast, boundless sea.
Only to the east stood a magnificent city.
At the very top of the city stood a giant dragon statue.
Just its head was thousands of meters wide, and its wings, when spread, were tens of thousands of meters long.
This left the two of them, who were used to giant objects, clicking their tongues in amazement.
