Life in Noah City was anxious, and the traces of the Dream Tapir were still being searched. There was no good news from the S City Research Institute that had stimulated Xie Wan to wake up early.
Tan Yue doesn't think about food or tea every day. Seeing her like this, her roommate Xiao Miao simply said: "You can lend me your kitten to play with."
Tan Yue summoned Chenxi Cat and said, "Go play with Sister Xiao Miao for a while."
Feizhao has the ability to eliminate people's worries. Watching Xiao Miao play with Chenxi Cat for a while, Tan Yue felt that the pressure on his heart was relieved a lot.
Qin Heng returned to his human form in the cave. After returning to the ship, he stayed alone for a whole day and avoided people until he arrived in Noah City. However, things would not go his way. When Xiao Miao saw him, she laughed mercilessly: "Hahahaha! You don't know how funny you are when you transform into a dragon, like a little baby who hasn't been weaned!"
Qin Heng's face turned red and he turned around and left without saying a word.
Tan Yue snickered beside him.
Speaking of changes during this period, since the ban on Ghost Island was broken during the cold wave, Tan Yue's system has been upgraded.
This upgrade allows her to remotely control the farm, like playing a game, remotely plan the layout of the farm, remotely feed fish, harvest fruits, etc. On the small screen in front of Tan Yue, you can still see the little people working on her farm. The only drawback is that the supernatural phenomena caused by remote control can scare people.
"System, do you have a way to find the Dream Tapir?"
[The connection between the system and the Dream Tapir was broken tens of thousands of years ago, and the system cannot find any trace of it. 】
Tens of thousands of years ago...?
"In other words, the Dream Tapir left its small world thousands of years ago and wandered to our earth, and never went back until the passage between the two worlds was severed. Will he stay here forever?"
【Yes. 】
Tan Yue murmured: "I always have a hunch that finding a dream tapir won't be that easy."
【Hope everything goes well. 】
…
Tan Yue once again went to sea with the large army, this time because he found the approximate coordinates of the Meng Tapir.
Tan Yue didn't know how Noah City's black technology was achieved. It was said that it scanned the power fluctuations of living things.
"The last few activities of the target mutant creature were at this coordinate." Kaos pointed at a certain coordinate on the chart with his hand. "We have reasonable suspicion that the target mutant creature is at this location."
Tan Yue asked: "Are we sailing towards this coordinate now?"
Kaos replied: "Yes."
Tan Yue always felt that it was too easy to find the dream tapir this time. It should not be so easy to find this little thing.
Sure enough, Tan Yue's premonition came true.
The ship sailed to the designated coordinates, but there was nothing on the sea.
"Nothing unusual happened."
Kaos said: "If there is nothing on the sea, there is only one possibility, and that is at the bottom of the sea. I will let our detection team dive down from here with instruments to find the location of the target mutated creature."
Under the sea?
There is a piece of equipment in Noah City that allows people to survive 800 meters underwater and relieves the pressure on people from the water to the greatest extent. It is also one of the black technologies.
Tan Yue said, "No need to go to such trouble."
She took out a basket of saton fruits from the system space and distributed them to the divers: "You can bring the equipment, but you must eat these fruits."
Kaos's eyes lit up: "Is it that kind of fruit? A magical fruit that allows people to breathe underwater?"
Tan Yue smiled and said, "Even if you don't know how to swim, you won't drown if you eat this."
The exploration team members bit it in disbelief.
Some people ate quickly and finished the food in a few mouthfuls. They even smacked their lips to reflect on the taste: "It's been a long time since I've eaten fruit. This fruit tastes really good."
Tan Yue introduced: "This is called Satang fruit. After eating it, your body will mutate to a certain extent in the direction of marine life. For example, after you go into the water, you will grow gills, which can adapt to the water pressure of the deep sea like a fish. Wait. One fruit lasts for eight hours, please pay attention to safety."
"No problem." The detection team members responded.
In addition to diving equipment, the exploration team members also need to carry combat equipment. After all, they are trying to catch a powerful mutant creature. Noah City specially mobilized a psychiatrist with abilities related to hypnosis, and asked her to use her powers to defend everyone's mental sea. Otherwise, they would easily be attacked by dream tapirs and lose consciousness in the deep sea. Gods would save them when the time comes. not coming back.
…
After the exploration team members entered the water, a few hours passed. Everyone was like looking for a needle in a haystack, with no clue and no gain.
Another dozen hours have passed...
The exploration team members felt like they were on an impossible mission, searching for a creature that was destined to be missing. Some of them even used Sha Tangguo's ability to dive to the bottom of more than a thousand meters and discovered sunken ships on the bottom of the sea. The team member was excited about the result, but the fact was destined to disappoint him - there was no news about the dream tapir in the sunken ship.
Three days later, the divers resurfaced and returned to the cabin. During this period, some of them came up to replenish the saffron fruit, but every time they came ashore, they did not bring good news.
When things got to this point, everyone felt that they were looking for something that was impossible to find. Some of the doomsday knights in Noah City even doubted their own technology and the authenticity of the positioning, and whether they were looking for that one at these coordinates. Mutated creatures.
Morale was unimaginably low.
Tan Yue found Ye Gucheng: "The first time you observed the mutated creature was in the patient's dream, right?"
Ye Gucheng miraculously understood what Tan Yue meant: "I did observe the creature you called the 'dream tapir' in my dream. Just like what you described, it looks like a small elephant with a long The trunk of the elephant. Are you saying that we are looking in the wrong direction?"
Tan Yue said hesitantly: "I do doubt that the dream tapir is not a creature that exists on the physical level, or that it has the ability to disappear from the physical world - I mean, can it only be observed in dreams? Communicate with it.”
Ye Gucheng pondered for a moment, then opened the window, and the salty sea breeze blew in through the window.
He felt the reality of the sea breeze and the real, physical world that humans live in, and asked: "What is the explanation for the coordinates detected by Noah City?"
Tan Yue also walked over and blew the sea breeze: "It can only be found in the dream dimension, but that doesn't mean it doesn't have the properties of the physical world."
"Are you saying that we can search for the Dream Tapir in dreams, but searching at other coordinates is useless. We must search in dreams at specific coordinates in the physical world to catch the Dream Tapir?"
"That's what it means."
Tan Yue concluded: "Actually, we have already succeeded in finding this coordinate. The next action should be to fall asleep, rather than searching here aimlessly."
