However, the situation was not as promising as they had imagined. Xu Huo and the others traveled above the water for hours without finding a way out, as though this expanse of water had completely swallowed the entire instance space.
"Could the City in the Dome be underwater?" Guo Xiaomao suddenly suggested. "With the game's current technology, living underwater would be no problem at all. Besides, the air in this instance space is poisonous. Living underwater might actually be better!"
"That seems pretty unlikely." Keke sounded uncertain as she analyzed it. "This looks more like an abandoned place. Think how much effort it would take to build a city underwater. Besides, compared to living on land, underwater breathing equipment should be harder to obtain, and harder to maintain, too."
"The space is unstable as well. Even setting aside spatial collapses, changes in gravity alone would make land much safer than being underwater."
Guo Xiaomao thought she was stuck in conventional thinking. After all, the districts players had encountered before were places where they could breathe freely, so they naturally assumed that everyone ought to live on land. But this instance space was completely different. Living underwater made perfect sense here.
Besides, this instance was called "People in Glass Tubes," and also known as the "City in the Dome." It could hardly make more sense!
Which raised the question: who was going underwater to look?
"Huh?" Guo Xiaomao hesitated. "Would the sea have a low tide?"
Xu Huo glanced at him. "What do you think?"
Guo Xiaomao took another look at the stagnant sea, then jumped to another subject. "Is this water drinkable?"
"Why don't you go down and try it?" Keke was tired of listening to his nonsense. She was about to say something else to shut him up when
