The portable grandfathers that appear are all problematic.

The little witch bombarded her with a barrage of questions.

Xue's Law finally found the deep pit marked by his mother. It was a pool sinkhole, a paradise for cave diving enthusiasts in the nearby area.

But no one expected that several kilometers deep in this cave would be a major root of the sacred tree.

While preparing for the cave dive, Xue Dinglu answered the little witch's question: "In this land, it's not illegal to buy $930 worth of goods for free in one go."

Little Witch: "..."

Ah this...

She was speechless for a moment, and at the same time, she couldn't understand why Xue Dinglu's hometown had such a bizarre law.

She suddenly felt that her impression of Xue's hometown might have been shattered. After all, in her original mind, Earth should be a peaceful, tranquil, and flawless paradise.

This shattered her dream of writing.

"Here, have one. I'll get you a SIM card when I'm done with my work. Then you can use your phone to access the internet as much as you want, and stay in your dorm as long as you like." Xue Dinglu casually tossed her a new phone and took his own back.

Now that I'm back on Earth, I never know what important messages I might receive on my phone.

"But this is filth..."

"The merchants offer zero-dollar insurance, which is surreal, but that's the freedom of American women, especially since we're in Boston, our blue state stronghold. I remember their zero-dollar limit is $1980? Besides, there are 28314 genders here."

Xue Dinglu said a series of things that left the little witch speechless, and she hesitated to speak, yet remained silent.

"Do you want this phone?" Xue Dinglu glanced at her.

"want!"

Chapter 366 Bad News Arrives from the Cave Diving Circle

The little witch's dream of living on Earth has been shattered.

She originally thought that when she learned that there were no demons or evil spirits on Earth, it should be a peaceful, beautiful, and tranquil world, like a fairyland in a dream. Even the air here should not have the smell of demons or evil spirits, but should be incredibly sweet.

Then, as soon as she arrived on Earth, her dream of a romantic life was shattered by her black friend's mysterious jungle camp.

What does it mean that buying something for under $1980 without paying is not a crime?

What does it mean that there are more than 20,000 genders?

I can't tell the difference, I really can't tell the difference.

The girl's beautiful illusions about the other world shattered instantly, and she felt exhausted and thought, "Let's just destroy it already."

"I went to a nearby diving club to find some equipment, and I almost underestimated this underwater pit. I just explored it for a kilometer and still couldn't find the divine tree. Is it hidden that deep inside? How did those mystics in the parallel world manage to dig out this divine tree?" Even the fish that Xue Dinglu transformed from his cursed blood couldn't reach the bottom.

He was genuinely curious about how the mystics from those parallel worlds had found this sacred tree.

It couldn't be that the bad news from the cave diving community was too much, which made them notice this cave, right?

"Oh..." The little witch didn't understand what Xue Lude was saying. In her world, caves like this were definitely haunted by eeriness. She tried to persuade her, "Do you really want to go down there?"

"Just relax and play on your phone. By the way, how's the new phone? Is it good?"

"It's delicious."

Xue Daoli shrugged, turned on the internet for her, and let her figure out how to use the new phone herself.

As for the remaining two phones, he planned to give them to his two daughters. Although the two children were still young, Xue Luding didn't expect them to study much. He would just give them the phones as gifts, whatever made them happy.

Turning my head, I looked at the deep pit.

He is not yet fully adapted to such extreme environments, including outer space and underwater caves more than a kilometer deep; he can only last for a little over half an hour at most.

Unless it becomes demonized, it should be able to adapt to the super water pressure and underground environment with ease once it becomes demonized.

But fearing that his condition would worsen, he gave up on demonizing and decided to find some professional diving equipment so that he could stay underwater for longer.

At this moment, Xue Lude greatly envied the magic called "underwater breathing" in the fairy tale world, where sorcerers could even use this magic to go to the deep sea and fall in love with the Little Mermaid.

A single magic spell solves all the problems of underwater breathing, water pressure, and even underwater motion sickness. Xue's Law can only lament that the magic in fairy tales is illogical.

Unfortunately, this magic cannot be replicated in other worlds.

Xue Dinglu suddenly realized that once he could no longer use the power and cursed blood without restraint, he was merely a half-baked magician and only capable of using the "New Century" ritual under specific conditions.

I have never systematically studied magic, and my magic level is still only at a usable level.

"I should find an opportunity to further my studies in this area," Xue Dinglu thought to himself.

Just as Xue Daoli was heading to the nearest underwater club to get some underwater equipment, a voice suddenly came from nearby.

"Hey buddy, want some professional underwater equipment? I have some in stock, brand new, only 6% off." It seemed like the same voice was ringing in my ears.

Xue Law: "..."

No, your Boston zero-dollar shopping has become an industry chain, right? By the way, do you have to pay taxes after selling items from your mystery shops?

Xue Daolu thought it was just another black guy looting a weird shop to sell his wares, but then he was shocked to see a familiar Greek face in front of him.

"Howard?" Xue asked tentatively.

The mystic who mastered celestial magic in a parallel world, and one of the key figures who laid out the brilliant magic, was a mystic who was forced to work as a male escort in a nightclub after his divorce.

However, those are things that happen in parallel universes. In this world, Howard...

"Hey buddy, do you know me? Got any cash? I haven't eaten in days!" Howard said excitedly, regardless of whether he actually knew Xue Dinglu or not.

Xue Law: "..."

Is Dwight Howard in the real world also doing this badly?

Isn't he an assistant professor at Harvard? How did he end up doing free shopping with his black friends?

……

The nearest KFC.

Xue ordered a lot of junk food: hamburgers, fries, sandwiches, large Cokes, and fried chicken.

Howard was frantically munching on his hamburger like a starving ghost, as if he hadn't eaten for days.

The little witch was also tempted, so Xue Dinglu ordered one as well and threw it into her consciousness space. Anyway, she was a soul, so no matter how much she ate, she wouldn't gain weight or become flat.

"Burp, I'm back to life..." Howard finished his large cup of Coke, let out a burp, and slumped onto a KFC bench.

"Aren't you a teaching assistant? Or a senior consultant at a company? How did you end up like this?" Xue Dinglu knew Howard's identity and thought that Howard from another world was already miserable enough to be forced to go to the nightclub Mygo, but he didn't expect that reality was similar.

Perhaps it's better to go to a nightclub like Mygo.

"Sigh..." Howard didn't know why, but Xue Dinglu looked familiar. He must be a student from his university. But at this moment, he could only sigh with a look of "I vaguely remember the past and my tears are still wet".

“Although I may not know your name, you know I’m a teaching assistant, right? Six months ago, I was a teaching assistant at Harvard and a senior consultant at a tech company… Could you have imagined that I would end up like this six months later?” Howard sighed.

"What happened?" Xue Dinglu handed over his Coke as well, as if to say, "I have Coke, do you have a story?"

Howard, unperturbed, picked up the unopened can of Coke from Xue Dinglu and drank it, saying, "I'm an illegal immigrant now... I'm going to be deported back to Turkey by the president..."

Xue Law: "..."

No, man.

Xue Law remembers that Howard's father had immigrated here a long time ago. His father was a scientist, and he was a professor at Harvard. How could someone with such a background be deported as an "illegal immigrant" by the immigration authorities decades later?

No, where did he get this? Is this still the Earth I know?

“Sigh, because of this, my wife divorced me, and all my assets were awarded to her. She also accused me of domestic violence, so I lost my job as a teaching assistant and senior consultant at a tech company… Sigh…” Howard sighed.

Xue Dinglu felt that if you handed him a microphone, he would start singing "Those days, tears still flow" for no reason at all.

"So now I can only wander around, saying 'God bless you' wherever I go to get subsidies from churches or liberals. If I see any guys doing free shopping, I rush over and grab some valuables. I just have to endure four years. After four years, the next president won't have such outrageous immigration policies," Howard sighed.

Xue Law: "..."

So no wonder that in the parallel universe, Brinton and thousands of other mystics couldn't find you no matter how hard they tried. Who knew you had to go through a lot of trouble, from buying things for free to begging, and even working as a male escort at a nightclub to make it to 2029? You've had a tough time.

Xue Dinglu never expected that this kid would be doing so badly in the real world, and he didn't even have those Greek ancestors who supported him here.

Xue's Law remembers that this kid is a descendant of Hector, right?

Actually, Xue Dinglu wanted to help this kid, but he didn't know how.

The last resort is to find Old Austin in the present world and ask him to help Howard out.

However, Austin was once Howard's teacher, and Howard is now in such a bad situation that he has never thought of going to Austin for help. He probably can't bring himself to do it.

"Ugh……"

A sigh echoed in Xue Luding's mind. Xue Luding frowned and realized that it was not Howard who was sighing, but Su Su.

"Your world clearly doesn't have demons or evil spirits, so why does it seem no better to me?" the little witch complained while munching on a hamburger. "Even though there are no evil spirits, why does this situation feel even scarier than having demons?"

"Eat more." Xue Dinglu tossed her his hamburger as well, and she accepted it all without hesitation. She then nestled in her dorm room, playing with her newly acquired iPhone 16 while munching on the hamburger.

"What are you planning to do next?" Xue Dinglu asked Howard. He was indeed going to help the kid out, after all, they had been teammates in a parallel world, and he couldn't bear to see him in such a miserable state.

"Take it one step at a time, one day at a time, and things will be better in four years," Howard sighed as he drank his Coke.

After letting out another burp, Howard suddenly said, "Hey bro, are you going cave diving? I'm a veteran cave diver, the kind with years of deep-sea cave diving experience. Since you treated me to dinner, I'll contribute my free equipment, and we can go explore that cave together again?"

Xue Law: "..."

You're already starving, and you still want to go cave diving?

"Anyway, this thing won't sell, so we might as well use it. Consider it another cave diving experience. I'm not in great shape, but I can still keep an eye on the navigation line and decompression tank for you in the shallows." Howard didn't know why, but deep down he had a strong belief in Xue's Law.

The two of them then prepared to explore the cave with the diving equipment they had bought for free.

However, only Xue's law entered the cave, while Howard, as the safety officer, helped watch the wires in the shallow water area to prevent them from being damaged by passing people or animals, and also set up some other gas cylinders.

Although this wouldn't have much effect on Xue's law, he still wanted to do it.

Xue Daolu could only shrug and accept it. He only needed to be able to stay underwater for a few hours. If he could open a portal underwater, he probably would have already done so.

Given the water pressure below, if Xue's teleportation portal were to open to the bottom, all the water would probably rush out of the portal.

Although it's a bit embarrassing, Xue's law is basically clueless about underwater situations, especially given the high possibility of an underwater battle.

He has even fought in outer space more than once, and can fight at full power for half an hour to an hour even in a vacuum and oxygen-free environment, but this is his first time fighting underwater.

That doesn't apply when facing Su Su's mother; it's about pushing away seawater.

If conditions allowed, Xue Dinglu really had the idea of ​​pumping out all the water in this entire water storage cave, and then going down to have a proper chat with the Divine Tree.

However, the sea is only a dozen kilometers away from Maus, Indonesia. According to the information sent back by the Bloodhounds, there is a high probability that the cave is connected to a certain trench inside. Therefore, the plan was stillborn.

Therefore, it is impossible for the water to be drained.

Now, the world's consciousness is hunting down and blocking all the roots of the divine trees underground, preparing to eliminate this hidden danger in one fell swoop.

“Let’s start diving. I’ll bring a 3-hour breathing tank. You wait for me in the shallows. If anything goes wrong, get back to shore immediately,” Xue Dinglu said to Howard on the shore.

"Okay, be sure to be careful. Come back immediately when the oxygen is used up by one-third! Be careful with decompression. I will set up a light source and decompression cylinders about 100 meters away."

Howard offered Xue's advice based on his experience.

However, what he didn't know was that Xue's law was not limited to diving to a depth of about 100 meters; he might dive to a depth of one kilometer, or even several kilometers, into the dark underground.

They even had to gobble up a colossal creature that had been on Earth since the Cretaceous period, underwater.

He brought the air tank purely so that he could fight freely underwater. Based on his experience fighting in space, Xue felt that he could last for nearly an hour under conditions of oxygen deprivation and abnormal pressure.

However, if he brought several oxygen tanks, the time could be multiplied several times. If he still couldn't catch the Divine Tree, Xue Luding had no choice but to open a portal back to the surface and flee back in disgrace, struggling against the water pressure as he rushed to the surface.

"Good luck," Howard said to the friend he was meeting for the first time that day.

With a splash, Xue Dinglu plunged into the deep pit cave with an entrance only a few meters deep, embarking on one of the most dangerous explorations on Earth: cave diving.

Even according to Xue's Law, this activity may be more dangerous than physically going into space.

If we really encounter danger, we should demonize ourselves when necessary; it's better to worsen our condition than to die here underground.

The water flow is extremely rapid. This is a world-famous cave, so famous that countless pioneers in the cave diving community have died in this cave.

Furthermore, the cave environment was extremely complex and winding. After descending to a depth of about 40 meters, Xue Dinglu saw a body wearing a waterproof suit sitting in the cave.

The body was long gone, reduced to a skeleton, but the waterproof suit didn't show much signs of corrosion, suggesting the diver had been there for a long time.

Perhaps this was a member of the diving club next door who perished, and Howard might even have known him.

But now, he is just a corpse lying quietly deep in the cave, almost buried by sand and gravel.

Without hesitation, Xue Dinglu continued to dive deeper, and along the way, he continued to discover a large number of corpses.
