After going into the sea, I met Miss Witch

"Come on, Big Silver, let's go in together."

Ryan patted the silverback shark's fin and said with a smile: "Don't worry, if you get hurt, I'll continue to treat you."

This cave under the cliff made Ryan think of the words "hidden map".

This is a game term.

Generally speaking, there must be extremely precious things in the "hidden map".

Of course, the danger level is also very high.

As if it understood Ryan's words, the silverback shark jumped around in a circle and then swam towards the entrance of the cave.

Soon, one man and one shark entered the cave.

To Ryan's surprise, the passage in the cave was not dim. Under the glimmer of an unknown algae on the rock wall, the light was bright, even giving people a dreamlike feeling.

After going nearly fifty meters deep, the silverback shark stopped again.

It looked at the stone sculptures about three meters high standing on both sides of the waterway in front of it, with fear in its eyes.

Ryan looked at it intently.

Those were two bronze statues with eagle heads and halberds in their hands. Their eyes seemed to be inlaid with some kind of red gemstones, which appeared scarlet in the dim light. They were like the most loyal soldiers, guarding this place and not allowing anyone to enter.

Ryan frowned.

He felt a strong threat from these two statues with eagle heads.

If he broke in by force, something bad might happen.

Recalling the corrosive wounds suffered by the silverback shark, Ryan's eyes fell on the eyes of the statues, thinking.

He stood up, jumped from the back of the silverback shark to the stone path on the side, and waved his hand: "Big Silver, go!"

"Don't panic, I will treat you if you are injured!"

The silverback shark looked at Ryan, and his eyes did not seem to be looking at a person, but rather at a beast.

After a few seconds of silence, the silverback shark's eyes gradually became firm.

"Splash..."

The silverback shark increased its speed to the limit and swam wildly towards the depths.

Ryan looked at this scene with a nervous expression.

Although he had some guesses about the attack methods of the two human-body eagle-headed statues, it was just a guess before he saw it with his own eyes.

He would not take such a risk.

Wouldn't it be great to let the silverback shark be a "pathfinder" to test the waters?

Of course, this was mainly because he had the means to quickly treat the silverback shark, otherwise the latter would not take this risk.

Under Ryan's gaze, the silverback shark soon came to 20 meters in front of the human-body eagle-headed statue. At this time, the human-body eagle-headed statue's eyes were red, and the two human-body eagle-headed statues on the left and right simultaneously shot four red rays at the silverback shark.

"Sizzle!"

A strong corrosion sound came, and the silverback shark shuddered, and quickly swam to Ryan's side with its tail wagging, with fear in its eyes.

At the critical moment, the silverback shark "brakes" for a while, but even so, its fins were injured by two red rays.

"Woo... Woo..."

Looking at the aggrieved silverback shark swimming back to him, Ryan quickly reached out to comfort it, and then evenly applied the pre-ground "Abundant Pearl Powder" to the wound.

Under the effect of the "Abundant Necklace" and the powder, the silverback shark's wound healed quickly.

Putting away the remaining "Abundant Pearl Powder", Ryan looked at the two statues of human bodies and eagle heads.

He noticed that after emitting red rays to attack the silverback shark, the red light in their eyes became much dimmer.

"Insufficient energy? Or is it that there is a fixed number of uses, and it takes a certain amount of time to recharge after use before it can be used again?"

Ryan guessed in his heart.

And the method of inspection is also very simple.

"Big Silver, go one more time."

"They don't have much energy."

The silverback shark looked at Ryan in disbelief, and was silent for a few seconds again, and finally chose to charge.

Ryan looked at it intently.

This time.

The red line of the human-body eagle-headed statue shot out again, but compared to the previous one, not only was the brightness lower, but even the speed of the shooting was much slower.

Therefore, this time the silverback shark was only scratched by a red ray.

Even the "Pearl of Abundance Powder" was not needed. After just applying the "Abundance Necklace" for a while, the wound of the silverback shark was scabbed.

Looking at the human-body eagle-headed statue whose red light in the eyes had completely dimmed, Ryan smiled.

Counting the previous one that seriously injured the silverback shark, the human-body eagle-headed statue launched a total of three attacks. I think this is their limit.

"Let's go in."

Ryan jumped back on the silverback shark, and what greeted him was the "resenting" look of the silverback shark.

Ryan pretended not to see it.

Complaining, the silverback shark still swam forward honestly.

Ryan looked serious.

Although it was inferred that the human-body eagle-headed statue was no longer able to emit red rays, it was only a guess after all, and he was ready to activate [Shelter] to resist the attack at any time.

The silverback sharks swam forward and soon came to the attack range of the human-body eagle-headed statue. This time, they only had a slight flash of red light in their eyes, but did not attack again.

Seeing this, Ryan breathed a sigh of relief, and the silverback sharks under him also showed great joy.

After swimming along the waterway for dozens of meters, the silverback shark stopped.

It was not that it did not want to swim, but that the depth of the waterway was already very shallow here, and if it went any further, it would be stranded.

Ryan looked forward, and what appeared in his eyes was a gradually rising ground.

"Leave it to me next."

"If I find something suitable for you, I will bring it to you."

Ryan patted the silverback shark's fin, then jumped down and continued to go deeper.

The silverback shark was a little unwilling, but there was nothing he could do. He could only stare at Ryan's gradually disappearing back.

...

Holding a long sword, Ryan moved forward cautiously.

Thanks to the faint light emitted by the algae on the stone wall, his vision was very clear.

To his surprise, he did not encounter any danger along the way.

Finally, Ryan came to the entrance of a cave.

Looking at everything inside, he showed astonishment in his eyes.

Stone table, stone chair, stone shelf, stone bed and even the stone pot placed in the middle...

Has anyone lived here?

With shock in his heart, Ryan walked all the way to the stone table and his eyes fell on a thick sheepskin-covered notebook on it.

There was only this thing on the entire desktop, neatly arranged. Obviously, this was left by the owner of the notebook before leaving.

With curiosity, Ryan opened the notebook.

Ryan couldn't understand the words recorded on it, and a large part of it was deliberately blacked out.

Fortunately, the gray font appeared in front of Ryan at this moment.
