Deep Sea Embers

Chapter 288 Touching the Frost

There was a slight storm on the sea.

The cold night wind blew across the sea, and the undulating waves slapped the solid hull of the Lost Home in layers. However, this huge ship still maintained a stable posture, as if ignoring the wind and waves, it continued to move towards the ship at full speed. Sailing North.

The translucent spirit sail was raised high in the night, and there were occasional creaking and tight sounds between the cables and the mast. This living ghost ship sighed happily in the wind and waves, and the new members on the ship seemed a little a little bit at this moment. Preoccupied.

Vanna learned from Duncan the truth about the Frost Rebellion half a century ago, the extremely bizarre Abyss Plan, and the fact that today, half a century later, that terrible plan is still going on. The slightest shadow.

Compared with the devastating fires that Plande had encountered, the Abyss Project in Frost was a horrific disaster on another level - dark, cold, invisible and terrifying things in the abyss. The disaster may be about to happen, or it may have already happened, or it may even be over, but in the cold night, no sound can describe the outline of the invisible terror.

The Black Sun incident in Purland was a blazing and dazzling war, but what happened under the frosty abyss was a silent and twisted nightmare.

According to Tirian, the Hidden Abyss Project has ended, and all the subsequent effects of that year have ended with the death of the Frost Queen, but in fact we have no evidence to prove that a certain extraordinary phenomenon under the frost is really It has stopped working - we don't even know what it is, and the whole thing is completely shrouded in mystery from start to finish. And now Morris has received another letter from a friend. This letter is a signal, reminding us that something wrong is happening in this northern city-state.

Duncan's deep voice rang out in the night wind, and then he paused for a moment, then suddenly turned to look at Vanna: Helena told you about the unusual movement in the northern sea, right?

His Majesty the Pope? Fanna was startled for a moment and shook her head slightly. She didn't say anything. She only said that she wanted me to take the Lost Home, but she didn't actually tell me what I should do.

Didn't she say something? Duncan murmured softly, but did not stop at that topic. Then don't think about it so much. Just adapt to the life on the ship. Tomorrow, I won't give you any embarrassing tasks.

He looked away from the distance again and looked at the twinkling stars in front of him.

I do not mind. Duncan said casually, then waved his hand and walked away without looking back.

Then stop talking nonsense and said casually, looking down at the chart as he passed by, where are we now? What's going on with the Seamist now?

The goat head immediately responded: Got it.

The sound of the undulating waves was heard, and Vanna watched the tall figure move away. Suddenly, she seemed to remember something, and shouted behind Duncan: Captain!

Fanna opened her mouth, and finally spoke after two seconds: I apologize to you - because of my recklessness...

But he did not immediately move his position or touch a cluster of stars in the distance. Instead, he calmed down and carefully observed the lights flashing in his field of vision, sensing the faint aura revealed in these lights.

In the captain's room, the goat head raised its head creakingly and looked at Duncan who was walking into the room: Ah, captain, have you finished comforting the new crew members? Today is an incredible day. A high-ranking priest who leads the Storm Goddess has become your crew. This can also be regarded as some kind of trophy, I think...

Yes, Captain!

Vanna looked at Duncan's actions curiously: What is he doing?

Speaking of this, she suddenly stopped, and then asked a little firmly: Do you mind these behaviors?

Behind her, in the turbulent sea, the wave amulet carved from Purand was stirred up and down by the waves for a long time. It was only at this moment that it was suddenly caught by a cluster of waves and was swept into the sea in an instant. deep.

She raised her head and glanced at the deep night and the mist on the boundless sea in the distance.

affim

Something has really happened to Hanshuang, and it is related to the secret under the abyss. I think Ti Ruian will take action. Staring at him is equivalent to staring at Hanshuang. The conditions here are suitable, so we lurked far away from the Sea Fog.

After thinking for a moment, he approached some of the light spots and cautiously touched a few of them.

At least part of it.

The bedroom door closed behind me.

This is a wave talisman carved by me from Purande. Followers of the Storm Goddess pray in this way when they go to the sea. Duncan explained casually that it is considered to be the favorite thing of the Storm Goddess. Throwing its talisman into the sea symbolizes The ancient act of sacrifice, praying while throwing amulets, also makes it easier to establish a connection with the goddess.

It's late at night, so it's best not to blow too much cold wind on the deck - the sea breeze at night is not very friendly to the body and mind.

As he spoke, he groped around on his body and took out a small piece of wood from his shirt pocket - it was a wave amulet carved from Plande. He put the amulet to his mouth and prayed softly. After a few words, he threw it into the sea outside the ship's side.

Duncan's eyes swept across the dazzling starlight, looking for individuals whose light and life had faded.

After touching a few points of light, Duncanfanna took back her will.

Duncan glanced at the pigeon: walking in the spirit world.

Duncan raised his eyelids and glanced at the goat head: Next time you say that in front of Vanna.

Yes, Captain.

After thinking about it again, he said: In addition, after the Sea Mist stops, lean over and take a look - without being exposed, investigate the location and surrounding environment of Tirian's secret port. This is useful for those who can stay in the spiritual world for a long time. It shouldn't be difficult for the lurking Homeless Number.

Ai's figure emerged from the darkness, and the skeleton bird wrapped in spiritual fire circled and danced around him.

Duncan glanced at Vanna in surprise - you often showed such surprised looks throughout the day - and then nodded belatedly: Ah, okay, thank you.

Ah, of course I don’t mind. As I said, the atmosphere on the Lost Home is more relaxed than you think. Duncan immediately smiled and shook his head. Maurice usually prays to the God of Wisdom.

heat, ease, fuel prices, steam supply, town hall

Don't be exposed for the time being, Duncan said, I still plan to have "enthusiastic contact with Frost's city-state guards."

After a moment, a cluster of normal flickering light suddenly caught his eye.

Duncan stopped and didn't look back: What else is there?

Ah, of course, that's easy, Goat Head agreed immediately, but what do you want to do to investigate this secret port?

Can't beat it.

He once again came to this space filled with countless stars and lines, boundless chaos and darkness.

With that said, he waved to Vanna, turned around and slowly walked towards the direction of the captain's room: I'm going back first, you can rest early.

After the words fell, the brass compass hanging on Ai's chest opened with a snap, and green flames rose from the compass. In the blink of an eye, the scene in Vanna's field of vision had changed!

It’s not him anymore!

I'm going to try and explore the situation in the direction of the frost. If it's not necessary, don't disturb me.

He does not directly occupy the body represented by these light spots, but in this way reads the deep information behind the light spots - emotions, perceptions, and even complete superficial consciousness.

I need a body with destiny to serve as an outpost for gathering information.

Fanna nodded and walked towards her dormitory.

The Sea Mist is still sailing at full speed, but it has fine-tuned its course twice not long ago. Judging from its position, it may be close to the secret homeport of the Sea Mist Fleet. Goat Head immediately replied, we should be able to enter the cold sea before early morning. , and then sail north for five to seven days to get to Hanshuang. Should we drive there directly or go to the distant sea?

Domain covert operations?

Ai Yi, who was resting by the window with his eyes closed, woke up with a start. He fluttered his wings and jumped onto the table. He tilted his head and looked at his master: Going to the hospital or staying in a hotel?

Duncan exhaled softly, came to the table and sat down, moving his slightly stiff shoulders and neck.

Vanna was still standing on the deck, seemingly distracted. Continuing to touch these light spots representing living people may cause a large-scale panic, which may then attract the attention of the city-state defenders. She does not want to deal with the familiar church yet.

The information we have come across so far is enough - just from the information read from these few light spots, we cannot confirm that this star is the residents of Frost.

Sure enough, as the Lost Home continued to move away from Haiximu and closer to Hanshuang, the starlight she saw in this space also changed!

Vanna raised her head and sensed her body on the Lost Home. She looked into the depths of the darkness following her senses, and what she saw was a hazy light spot in the distance.
