~6 min read 1,056 words

"The Lost Continent?"

"Li Yao, you can't go to the Lost Continent now!"

Hearing Lingxin's anxious voice rang out.

"In the past, one could say the Lost Continent was a paradise for insect swarms, a killing ground for insect swarms."

"But recently, a super-strong species appeared on the island."

"On the entire island, only their group remains!"

"Even the island itself has been more than half devoured by them!"

Hearing this, Li Yao frowned slightly.

If he wasn't mistaken,

the species Hearing Lingxin spoke of should be the Demon Insect race led by Xiao Bai.

When he left,

only Xiao Bai had the ability to devour all the insect swarms on the entire Lost Continent.

But,

when he left,

he had clearly told Xiao Bai:

If not necessary, leave the A-grade insect swarms, let them develop to S-grade on their own, and then devour them!

And besides,

what the hell is devouring half the island?

Even if Xiao Bai were hungry, it wouldn't devour the island, right?

Could it be that

something happened on the island?

Forcing Xiao Bai to devour all the insect swarms?

Or perhaps,

the super-strong species in Hearing Lingxin's words wasn't Xiao Bai at all, and even Xiao Bai's Demon Insect race had been devoured by that super-strong species?

Li Yao asked in a deep voice: "Hearing Lingxin, can you roughly describe the appearance of the super-strong species you mentioned?"

Hearing Lingxin thought for a moment and said, "I'm not too sure, I heard it from the Big-Mouth Porpoises."

"Those guys have extremely loud voices; even during normal communication within their group, it can spread for over a hundred 'frown-fish' distances in the sea."

"For small groups in the Endless Sea like us, most of our news sources come through them."

"I only heard that the species on the Lost Continent is pitch black, some look like dragons, some look like beetles."

Hearing this, Li Yao could already be certain:

The super-strong group Hearing Lingxin spoke of was the Demon Insect race!

Something must have happened on the island

that forced Xiao Bai to devour all the insect swarms.

Thinking of this,

Li Yao couldn't wait to head to the Lost Continent to find out.

"Hearing Lingxin, we must set off now."

"But..." Hearing Lingxin was still hesitating, very worried about Li Yao's safety. "The creature that could eat all the terrifying insects on the Lost Continent must be even stronger than the Cleaner group inside the Flame-Seat Crab!"

"I suspect that since the Lost Continent has had no abnormalities for so long, the species that appeared out of thin air was likely placed there by some powerful existence."

"To let them scavenge the resources on it!"

"Yes! That must be it!"

"The Lost Continent has the Life Tree, after all!"

"Hearing Lingxin, I have reasons I must go."

"Don't worry, once we reach the Lost Continent, I will have Xiao Na send you back to your group."

"No! I want to go with Li Yao!" Hearing Lingxin was very resistant and repeated earnestly, "Since Li Yao must go, then as a friend, I must accompany you!"

"Last time, the old patriarch said there are two ways to get to the Lost Continent."

"The Flame-Seat Crab and the Ark."

"If relying on the Flame-Seat Crab, we need to wait for it to dock at the shore, which is about a month away from now."

"Use the Ark," Li Yao said.

Hearing Lingxin could sense that Li Yao's time might not be that abundant.

"What is the top speed of this Ark?"

"Four thousand kilometers per hour," Li Yao replied.

Hearing Lingxin's expression was somewhat blank.

Shang Shang Yana, who had been listening quietly, suddenly spoke up: "Eight thousand 'frown-fish' per hour."

"Oh! Then I know!"

Hearing Lingxin continued to ask: "Does it have attack or defense means?"

"Yes, but the consumption is very high," Shang Shang Yana replied.

"Looking at it this way, this Ark is likely at a low-to-medium level."

"If navigating on the sea surface, it cannot pass through the Medusa Airspace."

"It can only find a Ferryman and navigate on the seabed."

"Medusa Airspace?" Li Yao couldn't help but be puzzled.

Hearing Lingxin, however, said very solemnly: "Li Yao, in the absence of a high-level Ark, if you want to go to the Medusa Airspace, I will absolutely, absolutely stop you!"

"That is the most dangerous area of the Barowika Continent, bar none!"

"That airspace has no living creatures; any creature that steps into that sea area has never come out alive."

"Even seabed creatures that poke their heads out of the sea will instantly be cursed and sink to the seabed!"

"Wait."

Li Yao suddenly remembered:

on the Abyss Bestiary,

every area had a black shadow, which seemed to be a projection of some kind of monster.

Li Yao's judgment at the time was:

the projection of the strongest creature in that area.

"Xiao Na, give me paper and pen."

"Here."

Li Yao roughly sketched the outline of the Barowika Continent in his notebook,

and then roughly circled an area in the blank space representing the Endless Sea.

"Hearing Lingxin, is the Medusa Airspace here?"

"Yes! It's right here!"

Hearing Lingxin widened its eyes. "Li Yao, have you been there?"

"Of course not, I just saw it in a document; it's specially marked here."

It seemed he hadn't guessed wrong.

That projection on the Abyss Bestiary

was the Medusa in Hearing Lingxin's words.

The most dangerous and strongest creature on the Barowika Continent,

even stronger than the strongest demon of the Demon race, the Darkin Blade Aatrox!

"Can we bypass it?" Li Yao asked.

"Bypassing is possible, but doesn't Li Yao want to save time?"

"The Medusa Airspace is quite large; bypassing it is not as good as navigating on the seabed!"

"Then let's go by seabed."

"Since that's the case, we have to find a Ferryman."

"That's simple, as long as there is enough food!"

"How much is enough?"

Hearing Lingxin rolled its eyes and thought carefully. "Under normal circumstances, three 'frown-fish' weights would be enough, but the Lost Continent is relatively dangerous now, so preparing four 'frown-fish' weights of food will be foolproof!"

Li Yao suddenly reached out and lifted Hearing Lingxin entirely out of the water vat.

"Li Yao! What are you doing!"

"How presumptuous!"
