Mo Fan's words sounded ridiculous to everyone at the start, but after hearing his explanation, most people started to believe his speculation!

Ai Jiangtu in particular was convinced, as he had entered the illusion together with Mo Fan. They had both witnessed how Miyata had killed herself just to prove that she was innocent. Such a strong-willed woman would never speak such a ridiculous lie, which meant there was something fishy about the island!

”I'm thinking that maybe the night was misty, and the creature was simply too enormous, and so Miyata did not notice it was a living creature. Since she had only moved to Xixiong City quite recently, she wouldn't think it was strange that there was an island there, so she went onto it... Although I don't know why the creature would just sit there, but I think the only explanation as to why I saw the island was because it had reappeared in the same spot.”

”What exactly is it? How did it manage to sneak past into the safe zone with such ease, not to mention that it was big enough to disguise itself as an island...” Jiang Shaoxu was now utterly convinced that Mo Fan was speaking the truth.

If they had not seen the shadow in the Pacific Ocean, they would never have believed that there existed a creature huge enough to be mistaken as an island. Mo Fan's speculation was indeed the only viable explanation for Miyata's statement!

It was not an island, but a living creature, one that could enter human territory freely, a gigantic sea creature that was either harmless to humans, or believed that humans were simply unworthy of its attention!

”So the alarm at the Twin Guardian Towers last night went off because they detected the creature?” said Jiang Yu.

”Even though I have no clue what you all are talking about, there was indeed a gigantic creature present last night. It left soon after we detected its presence. It's obvious that the creature did not wish to fight us,” Mochizuki Chihaya confirmed.

”But why is the creature following us? Osaka is around the middle of Japan; are you telling me that it had traveled half of Japan just to stalk us?” asked Nanyu.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

None of it made any sense. If it was trying to harm them, it would have done so in the Pacific Ocean.

If it was harmless, there was simply no reason for it to be following them. If it weren't for the tight security at the Twin Guardian Towers, it was likely that Mo Fan and his team would still be unaware that the creature was following them.

”I'm starting to feel uneasy; a creature of that level can easily swallow a river, destroy a mountain, and overturn the lakes and seas,” said Jiang Yu.

”What should we do now?” asked Jiang Shaoxu.

”We'll proceed with caution. Maybe I was just oversensitive; it's only a mere speculation. After all, we still haven't seen the creature yet,” said Mo Fan.

”Mmm, it's good enough that we are aware of its existence, it's not like worrying about it will make any difference,” said Ai Jiangtu.

Mo Fan had made the whole group uneasy.

Luckily, they were currently inland, quite a distance away from the coast. There was no reason for them to panic now.

Not long after, the bus pulled onto a highway. They could see houses along the way, implying that they had entered a safe zone under protection.

The journey was rather tiring. After all, it took them some time to travel from Osaka to Tokyo by bus, even though they were taking the highway...

”I'll bring everyone to somewhere fun when we arrive in Tokyo,” promised Jiang Shaoxu when she saw that everyone was low in spirits.

Ai Jiangtu immediately poured a bucket of cold water on her. ”Jiang Shaoxu, we'll be heading straight to the maritime battlefield after we arrive in Tokyo.”

”Why the rush? It wouldn't matter if we are a day late,” Jiang Shaoxu wheedled in a seductive tone.
