From this place, Ye Chen glanced over there, and ahead of them, they could already vaguely see the location of the small island. Now, their ship was gradually approaching the island.

Then, as the ship approached the island, it began to change course, slowly moving in a circle here.

The sound of the engine on the ship became quieter, which proved that it was now mostly relying on the sea's waves to slide slowly here.

All around them, they saw dense jungles, and it seemed there were some birds occasionally flying by.

"Looking at it from the surface now, it seems there's not much of a problem, and wasn't it said that all the birds would die up there? But now it seems that there's nothing of the sort."

"Right, looking from the outside, indeed there isn't, and you see all around is very lush, the trees are indeed dense. Even if we go in, I'm afraid it'll be like walking into a jungle. Look around, these four sides, well, here doesn't seem the same."

At this moment, they suddenly noticed a patch of barren grass in this place.

This is completely different from the scenes they saw earlier; here it's practically barren. Looking from here, it's all yellow soil, and there are large stones, with the road surface being uneven.

"What's the situation?"

After saying that, Ye Chen just frowned slightly. He had never experienced such a thing before, so he hadn't studied the island much either.

An island having two completely different situations from north to south seemed indeed a bit strange to him.

"I've never encountered this before, but I seem to remember that when we were in class, this point was mentioned. It's said that this island can be divided into two, and there's some crustal movement underneath it. The movement leads to the island being constantly in motion over the years, meaning what we see now might have been pieced together from elsewhere."

"What do you mean by pieced together? Can I understand it as the chaotic piece we see doesn't originally belong to this island, but has temporarily merged with it due to crustal movement, and may soon separate from it again?"

"Yes, that's what it means."

"Then how do we count this? Besides, if it's like this, if Yaru's father lived on an island with active crustal movement back then, would it be floating back and forth in the ocean, and how would we locate a target then?"

"Don't worry, there's no way they'd place people here, and if they have any common sense, they certainly wouldn't let anyone wander about with the crust, as it would be quite a hassle to pinpoint a target later."

"So, what we're seeing now should be considered a normal natural phenomenon. Since there's no need for specific answers now, that's fine. I've looked all around; basically, it's the same everywhere. Let's find a place with fewer trees and dock the ship there."

After listening, Anying merely nodded, then turned direction and continued heading toward the west side of the island. Seeing the place, it seemed the trees were indeed starting to thin out.

Finally, Anying slowly began maneuvering the bow of the boat toward that direction, inching closer bit by bit.

"Well, don't you say, the scenery on the island looks quite nice indeed. Moreover, the presence of such a small island makes me feel it's definitely not an unknown one."

"Yes, if this island were to be developed, it would be a good place indeed. Besides, why do I feel the further we go in, the sparser the trees become?"

"I was just investigating this issue, and I feel that the surrounding jungle has encircled everything, but the middle position might not be a scene. So, once we enter, we should still be able to see some things."

As they spoke, the small boat had already docked steadily on the shore, and then Ye Chen and Lin Yaru helped each other, jumping off the boat.

Afterward, Anying handed over the suitcase, and finally, all three were off the boat.

Once ashore, Anying dropped the anchor to the ground, and for safety's sake, she also deliberately found a very thick rope, tying it directly to a large tree.

Anying tugged at the place, feeling the small boat was still quite sturdy, at least unlikely to drift away.

"How about it, confirmed there's no issue, right?"

"There should be no problem. Even if the sea breeze gets stronger, I estimate it won't drift away. Unless a major disaster occurs, otherwise, we can likely continue to stay on the island."

"I certainly hope that doesn't happen. I just want to find some clues here quickly, and thereafter we won't have to linger on the island, let's hurry and leave."

"Who doesn't think so! Come on, now we've begun our island life, let's put on our gear first."

While speaking, Anying stopped, then directed them to open the suitcases on the ground, and then Anying found a set of clothes inside, throwing it directly to the ground.

There were three sets placed on the ground, all silver-colored, looking like some form of protective clothing.

"Is this protective clothing?"

"Yes, this is a commonly used protective gear for landing on islands. It's to prevent sudden attacks from insects, so these clothes are essentially airtight. However, there's a tube at the head that can lead outside, ensuring normal breathing isn't affected at all."
