Chapter 2899 Repulsive Force

When Zeke arrived at a spot around thirty meters away from the Apex River, he found it hard to move forward due to the strong wave of energy.
It seems like it's going to be hard getting near the river. However, something weird is going on here. Why is it so easy for Squirrel to go near the river? It seems like nothing is stopping it from getting near the river. Is it because Squirrel is a local in the ancient sector? Could Apex River be sentient and capable of repulsing certain beings? That could be it.
Right then, Quinlan arrived next to Zeke.
