"That makes sense, why didn't you say so earlier?"
The squirrel glared.
"You said we had to wait here."
Wan Qianxin shrugged and sneered.
"Then let's go, let's start searching."
"Should we split up and search?"
Dada asked.
"That won't do. The Sea of Bitterness is dangerous everywhere. You never know when you'll encounter strange memes and be infected and assimilated. You must stay close to me and not separate. At the same time, you need to pay attention to whether one person is missing or an extra person is in our team, understand?"
"Little squirrel, why are you saying such scary things?"
Bao Bao's eyes widened.
"Yes, especially you, memes like to eat cute little children."
"I... I'm not scared. Bao Bao will fight ten memes."
Bao Bao waved his little fists and pouted. Although he was scared, his face was still full of stubbornness.
"This place is too big. The Sea of Bitterness is boundless. Just the side close to the Positive Plane is larger than the entire Positive Plane. Searching aimlessly might not yield a single person even after a year. We need a direction."
Wan Qianxin sighed.
"We came out in a hurry this time, and we didn't bring any distribution maps of the Sea of Bitterness military bases and gathering points. But we still have a way."
The squirrel said.
"What way? We didn't even bring a locator."
The four little ones knew that when coming to the Sea of Bitterness, one had to bring enough things. After all, there was no spiritual energy or energy in the Sea of Bitterness, and there were no sun or stars in the sky.
Here, without a locator and a map, you wouldn't even know where you were.
"We don't need to rely on those things, we can rely on our intuition."
The squirrel was very confident.
"Rely on intuition? Can you come up with a more unreliable method?"
Wan Qianxin glared at the squirrel.
"You little fellow, what do you know? I didn't say rely on my intuition, but on Wan Lei's intuition."
"Wan Lei?"
Everyone looked at Wan Lei, who was stunned, not knowing what was going on.
Then, Fang Xiaoyu chuckled, and Gouzi also nodded sagely,
"I get it."
"No, what do you get?"
Everyone looked at each other.
"Wan Lei has the protagonist's halo. His intuition must be correct. No matter which direction he points, it will be where the contact person is.
After all, this Sea of Bitterness is the world of memes, and the protagonist's halo is the strongest meme."
"The protagonist's halo is on Wan Lei?"
The four little ones were all shocked. Especially when they remembered that they had said they wanted to find the host of the protagonist's halo and kill him to take it away, they felt so embarrassed that they wanted to roll on the ground.
At that time, Wan Lei must have been laughing at us in his heart...
"How do you have the protagonist's halo!"
Xia Yubing shouted with a frown.
"My dad gave it to me."
Wan Lei already knew that Jin Xian Zun was the previous owner of the protagonist's halo, and the protagonist's halo was obtained in a secret realm. It was undoubtedly given by Jin Xian Zun.
"This damn old Xia! He had such a good thing but didn't give it to me, but gave it to you. Ah!!! Does he still have me, his father, in his eyes?"
Wan Lei felt that Xia Yubing would be beaten terribly when she returned.
"Alright, shut up. You are not the protagonist of this era. Even if it were given to you, you couldn't possess it. The protagonist's halo chooses its host on its own."
"You're quite good at comforting people."
The squirrel comforted Xia Yubing and then said to Wan Lei,
"Okay, now, based on your intuition, tell us which direction our target is."
Wan Lei pondered for a moment and then pointed in a direction,
"North."
"...Why north? And how do you know that's north?"
Han Xiaoyun looked at Wan Lei with disbelief.
"Because a lama came from the south, and a mute came from the north. I have a premonition that we will meet a mute if we go north."
Wan Lei said and nodded confidently.
Wan Qianxin was shocked,
"Brother Wan's viewpoint, while not completely consistent with our goal, is entirely unrelated."
"Let's go, head north."
"Why don't we look for the lama in the south? Do you think a mute would be the contact person?"
"The lama might be too strong to defeat."
"Listening to you speak is a waste of ten minutes."
The group had no choice. Seeing that Wan Lei had already flown north, they could only follow.
Now they could only believe in the power of the protagonist's halo.
"I remember my dad saying that the protagonist's halo has great side effects. After fulfilling your wishes, it always brings a series of unexpected accidents to the host."
"Yes, I've heard of that too."
"This protagonist's halo isn't reliable, is it?"
Upon hearing this, Wan Lei chuckled awkwardly,
"Hehe, hehe, the protagonist's halo has always been very reliable, it has never tricked me, hahaha..."
"Then why are you laughing awkwardly?"
"By the way, is this Sea of Bitterness all water? Can this water be drunk?"
Wan Lei quickly changed the subject.
"If you want to die, you can try drinking it."
The squirrel said indifferently,
"The Sea of Bitterness is formed by countless dead universes being discharged into it. Both the Positive Plane and the Negative Plane discharge into the Sea of Bitterness.
It has gravity in the middle. Relatively speaking, heavier things like planetary fragments and celestial bodies will descend, while lighter things like water will rise.
The water in the Sea of Bitterness is wastewater, with many impurities, strong corrosive and polluting properties, and it is full of memes. Do you think this water can be drunk?"
Forget it, no more awkward chat. The more we talk, the more depressing it gets.
Wan Lei shut his mouth, and the group quickly flew north.
"By the way, why don't we fly on a spaceship? Flying all the way is so tiring."
Bao Bao complained dissatisfiedly. He was already tired from fighting continuously for half a year, and now he had to fly long distances.
"We only have Xia Yubing's spaceship, and it's a top-tier spaceship. Anyone who knows about it can see it at a glance. We want to disguise ourselves as criminal organizations and scavengers, so we can't use a top-tier spaceship."
"Oh~~"
Bao Bao drew out his words, expressing his dissatisfaction.
Wan Lei wanted to ask what scavengers were, but he felt that if he asked, he, as the strongest disciple of the Five Elements Hall, would appear ignorant, having wasted half a year in the Five Elements Hall.
"Huh? Look, a ferryman!"
Han Xiaoyun, who was flying at the front, suddenly pointed into the distance and shouted in surprise.
Wan Lei and the others looked up and saw a small wooden boat in the distance, with two people sitting on it. In the sky was a huge scroll, depicting something.
"What is that?"
Wan Lei once again exposed his ignorance.
Look at Fang Xiaoyu, who didn't say anything. Even if she didn't know, someone would ask anyway, so she wouldn't be embarrassed.
The squirrel glanced at it and explained,
"After people die, their souls will enter the Sea of Bitterness, but not every soul is qualified to enter the Ghost Realm.
They will be met by ferrymen, and then, on this Sea of Bitterness, after understanding, they can enter the Ghost Realm.
The Sea of Bitterness is boundless, and there is no shore to turn back."
