Completely oblivious to the commotion on the surface, Leila and her team were steadily approaching the depths of the Mysterious Sea Area.
Under the guidance of the Killer Whale, the faint light gradually grew brighter.
"Look! There's something over there!"
Ao Ke excitedly pointed at the object emitting the bright light ahead. However, Leila, who was at the very front and had noticed it much earlier, was not as thrilled as he was.
"Everyone, stay alert. It's better to be safe than sorry," Leila warned over the comms.
For some reason, Leila felt that their exploration of the Mysterious Sea Area was going a bit too smoothly. Even though their group had discussed the plan day and night, and even rehearsed it in advance—making their smooth progress seem justified—Leila still felt uneasy. She couldn't pinpoint exactly what was wrong, so all she could do was urge everyone to be as vigilant and careful as possible.
"We are about to approach the light source. Stay safe."
