2903 Is It Safe to Drive So Fast?
However, Gu Ning could only see the area around the island. Because it was covered in fog, she couldn’t see what was inside.
Seeing the thick fog, Gano and Billy were both extremely disappointed.
“It seems our trip is meaningless,” Gano said resignedly. Although he was mentally-prepared, he was still sad.
“Yea, I’m afraid we have to go back now,” Billy said.
“Mr. Leng, Mrs. Leng, I’m very sorry.” Gano apologized to Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning. He had explained to them before and they didn’t care, but he felt it was necessary for him to apologize.
“Mr. Tilar, there is no need to apologize. If this little fog can be a difficulty, I wouldn’t have agreed to help,” Gu Ning replied. She didn’t think it was a problem at all.
Hearing that, Gano and Billy agreed with Gu Ning, but they felt that she was too confident.
They didn’t doubt her abilities, but they wouldn’t be convinced until Gu Ning proved it to them.
“I know you’re doubtful. It’s understandable. We’ve just met, but it’s unavoidable to take risks since we want the treasure. Do you dare to go inside with us?” Gu Ning asked. She didn’t think it was wrong that Gano and Billy doubted her abilities. It would be weird if they didn’t!
It wasn’t a good thing to easily trust strangers.
Gano and Billy remained silent for a few moments, then Gano said, “Of course, let’s go inside together!”
“Since we’re already here, we must give it a try. No one knows what will happen if we don’t go inside,” Billy said. He was panicked too, but he was reluctant to leave right now.
He was an adventurous person, so he was willing to take the risk.
Moreover, Gano and Billy had learned some fighting skills. They weren’t extremely skilled, but they were better than most people, so they were braver too.
“If so, let’s go inside right now! I don’t want people nearby to see us, since it will cause unnecessary trouble. Let me drive this time,” Leng Shaoting said.
Upon hearing that there were people nearby, Gano and Billy let Leng Shaoting drive the yacht.
Gu Ning also exchanged seats with Billy and sat in the front passenger’s seat.
None of them was surprised that there were people nearby, because not only they were aware that there was treasure on this island.
Since there was treasure, it naturally attracted many treasure-hunters.
The next moment, Leng Shaoting directly drove into the thick fog.
Visibility in the fog was very low, only three or four meters in radius, so ordinary people wouldn’t dare to enter, but that was the visibility for ordinary people. For Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting, the visibility was about ten meters. Even if the visibility was low, their spiritual consciousness wasn’t worse than their eyes. In some cases, it was better and more useful than vision.
Just like the situation they were in right now where they couldn’t see where the island was. If it wasn’t far away, they could use their spiritual consciousness to sense the surroundings and figure out where it was.
With or without obstacles, the sound and direction of the wind and waves were different.
However, obviously the island was still far away, so Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning couldn’t sense it yet.
Because the fog was dense, Gu Ning couldn’t see the island with her Jade Eyes, but they could go forward at a fast speed. They didn’t need to worry about hitting anything.
Although they weren’t sure the destination was in front of them, they at least wouldn’t lose their way.
However, Gano and Billy were astonished by the speed at which Leng Shaoting was sailing the yacht. They were extremely scared. It was even scarier than racing a car on twisting mountain roads.
“Mr. Leng, is it safe to drive so fast?” Gano asked. Because he was really scared, his voice trembled a bit.
“Don’t worry. It’s fine,” Leng Shaoting replied.
Gano and Billy were still nervous and felt like they could die at any moment, but since Leng Shaoting said it was fine, they didn’t doubt him again.
Shortly after they went into the thick fog, another group of people reached the edge of it. They stopped at once, and hesitated to go inside.
They could find a way out after going in, but it would be really difficult.
If the yacht was filled with fuel and they had enough food, they wouldn’t be afraid, but what if they ran out of gas and food, then got stuck inside?
After hesitating for a while, they still decided to go inside. Before they came here, they were aware that this place was covered in thick fog almost constantly. It was nearly impossible to visit here without the fog.
Since they wanted the treasure, they had to take the risk. Anyway, they were fully-prepared for the adventure before they came.
After going into it, they became very slow.
Gu Ning, on the other hand, soon saw the island after driving in the fog for about seven minutes.
However, only Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting could see it, while Gano and Billy could see nothing.
As they approached the island, Leng Shaoting slowed down. At the same time, they sensed the faint magical power in the air.
It wasn’t strange. Normally, places isolated from the world had some magical power.
When Leng Shaoting slowed down, Gano and Billy were confused. They thought that something went wrong, but they soon saw land.
Was it the island?
“Have we arrived?” Gano asked excitedly. He couldn’t believe that it could be so easy. After all, he could hardly do that on his own.
It seemed that Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning were a lot more useful than he thought.
Meanwhile, they were still anxious.
They felt lucky that they turned to the right people for help, but they were afraid that Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting might want to keep all the treasure. If so, it was impossible for him and Billy to fight back.
