"You know how strong Shanshan is. Even though she's young, I dare say that no one in the entire Abyss-Sea, aside from the Gods, can easily harm her."
"Don't forget, she was scared back by an aura. That means whatever's on the surface is much stronger than her. Are you really still determined to go up there?"
Charles thought about it for a long time. He waited until the water in the tub grew cool before speaking up again, "But Shanshan didn't go straight to the surface. Maybe there's some kind of barrier between the Abyss-Sea and the surface, who knows?"
Anna helplessly slapped him hard. "What's the point of lying to yourself like this?"
His voice agitated, Charles sat up in the tub. "You know the Foundation came down from the surface! All the clues from before indicate that everything up there is normal."
"Besides, you've devoured the memories of quite a few humans from the Foundation. You should know that they could all go to the surface as long as they applied."
