บท 636: 635. Cliff!

The shortest distance between two points is a straight line.

Walking from one side of the island to the designated location, the fastest route naturally cuts straight through the middle, but in reality, this isn't the best option for the ten people.

"Considering our destination, it looks like it will take three to four days to reach. But crossing straight through might be difficult due to the numerous poisonous insects in the forest, and wild animals come out at night. To be safe, we should still walk along the coastline. What do you all think?"

"Okay, how about this? At night, we find a cave or somewhere similar by the sea to set up tents, and during the day we follow the compass to traverse the forest near the beach."

"I think that's feasible. If we were to follow the coast the entire way, it would take at least two extra days."
