As I advanced by carefully following the map, I set a personal record for the shortest time getting back to the beach.
Unfortunately, our life raft had been washed away, but fortunately, Meng Qingyu's speedboat was still there.
I checked the time; it was already evening. I swam to the speedboat, found two backpacks onboard, which contained spare sleeping bags.
I guessed that the false Meng Qingyu found these items cumbersome and left them on the speedboat, then they were too busy fleeing to come back for the spare sleeping bags.
I took the two backpacks and quickly returned to the jungle. I remembered someone saying that there were 'beasts' roaming the beach at night, best to avoid them.
Everything had been smooth sailing; I didn't need sleep, so I could march day and night. But no one expected that on my way back, I would encounter something extremely bizarre.
In a clearing in the forest, I was surrounded by a group of creatures that seemed to be women.
