So he did not continue to insist.
Gauss tied one end of the rope around his waist, while the other end was bound to a sturdy jagged rock.
"Then my safety is in your hands." Gauss said with a smile.
"Rest assured," Serdur promised solemnly. He grasped the middle of the rope, ready to slowly release it in coordination with Gauss.
He took a deep breath.
Encased in the Gauss Force Field, Gauss took a big step towards the "magic quicksand" area.
The moment his foot touched the ground.
The sand beneath seemed to undergo some magical transformation, as if his toes passed through a layer of water, entering a new world.
Then his ankle, calf, thigh, and finally his entire body was submerged in the vortex of quicksand.
The quicksand vortex did not disappear.
There was only a thick rope gently swaying at the center of the vortex.
Completely submerged in the quicksand, Gauss hesitated for a moment, then opened his eyes.
