About twenty minutes had passed.
Eugenes, having completed his body wash (approximately three hundred cubic meters of seawater had turned into a "forbidden zone" of life, with two thousand cubic meters of seawater contaminated), donned a multi-layered padded cotton coat and met Han Dong on the deck.
The Coral Ship was crossing the ice floe area, and it would be about three hours before they could officially dock.
Han Dong also told Eugenes about his encounter in the corridor.
The latter's expression did not change much; he merely frowned slightly,
"I didn't expect to be greeted by a 'thing' before we even landed. Since you, Nicholas, encountered it first, it was probably attracted to you."
"Me? And what exactly is this thing? I clearly saw 'it' with my own eyes a moment ago, and had completely locked onto its domain.
I chased after it in less than a second, but it just disappeared... like it evaporated into thin air. I've only ever encountered this with Green."
