Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 203
Duncan looked at the old Mr. Morris standing on the first floor in surprise, looking at the other person’s mess and the obviously strange expression on his face.
He came down slowly and greeted the old scholar: “Good day—what’s going on? You look as if you just ran all the way through the wind and rain?” “
Dun…Mr. Duncan,” said Mo Only then did Rees come back to his senses, he put the mysterious blond lady aside for the time being, took off his already soaked hat and walked forward, “I need your help…I don’t know how to ask you Explaining this matter, I don’t know if you are willing to take action, but… I found that there are missionaries of the end of life in the city, and they have tampered with the history of Puland, I…” The old man said, suddenly a little stuck
.
He seemed to suddenly realize how impulsive his behavior of asking for help was, and realized that his behavior of asking for help from an unknown subspace existence was irrational—would Mr. Duncan help? Why would he do this? Is the survival of human beings and the survival of city-states meaningful to him? What threat did the preacher pose to him in the end?
I acted so impulsively because of the friendly attitude shown by this subspace existence before, or because the other party just happened to show concern about certain things last time?
Morris was stunned for a moment, and then he saw Duncan nodded slightly.
“I know.”
The chaotic starlight, the broken mirror, the giant of light and shadow – the skin of a mortal, said to him calmly standing on the stairs.
“You…know?” Morris was stunned, but then he realized that the expression on his face became very strange, “Ah, yes…of course you don’t need me to remind you, I…” The old man put his hat
on Throwing it to the side, raised his hand and patted his forehead, as if he felt that he had made a fool, he muttered: “I’m so confused, I thought you wouldn’t notice the abnormalities in the city-state, then you must I also know that Fanna…”
Duncan immediately frowned slightly: “Vanna? That city-state judge who has a good relationship with Heidi? What happened to her?” “
Vanna…’disappeared’,” Morris froze for a moment, not expecting that Duncan would It was this reaction, but she still subconsciously said, and then quickly added, “I’m not saying that she disappeared, but that she suddenly disappeared in the real world starting today. Heidi forgot about Fanna’s existence, and neither did anyone else. Even in the newspapers of the city-state…”
Duncan walked down the stairs quickly. When Morris was halfway through speaking, he realized that the situation was complicated, and his expression became serious at this moment: “Sit down and talk slowly. Alice, go Prepare hot tea—do you remember how to do it?”
“Okay, Mr. Duncan.”
Morris saw the blond woman with elegant and mysterious temperament get up immediately after hearing Duncan’s order, and he also paid attention to this Every movement of “Miss Alice” is slightly weird-many of her movements are small, with a strange sense of caution and restraint, which is reminiscent of those ancient nobles with excellent education and family inheritance, It also made him more curious about his identity.
But his curiosity gave way to the current state of affairs.
After sitting down at the counter, he immediately told the “antique store manager” in front of him of the abnormal situation he noticed, and at the same time told himself the difficulties and obstacles he encountered along the way.
Duncan listened with a serious expression, without interrupting Morris’s statement throughout the whole process, until after the other party finished speaking, he whispered softly as if sighing: “The final missionaries… are indeed a group of troublesome guys.”
” This group of lunatics who exiled themselves out of the dimension of reality in ancient times will always appear suddenly in the cracks of time. They are committed to destroying the continuity of history and pose a huge threat to the stability of the real world… But they It is rare to have the opportunity to make things so big,” Morris said in a low voice, “under normal circumstances, the protection of the gods will prevent the penetration of the final missionaries, and the fire spreaders will continue to strengthen the historical ‘barriers’, This time those lunatics must have borrowed some other power to break the blockade…”
“Old sir, your tea.” Alice came from the side and put the hot tea on the counter.
“Thank you,” Morris hurriedly thanked him. He has been through wind and rain on this journey, and now he really needs a cup of hot tea to warm his body, but he couldn’t help it just after taking a sip. “Pfft——” Duncan on the opposite side looked indifferent
: “Let’s make do with it. At least she really found where the tea leaves are, although the dosage is questionable.”
Morris turned his head and glanced at the mysterious lady named Alice in astonishment, only to see that she was already leaning on the stairs, trapped A state of mind wandering.
…What is the origin of this mysterious man?
Duncan chewed the tea calmly, confirming one thing in his heart.
As expected, the transcendents of this world have discovered the “non-linear” characteristics of the Final Yan missionaries, and they have targeted countermeasures.
But it now appears that these countermeasures have not always been effective.
He closed his eyes slightly, and in the dark vision, the distant green flame suddenly jumped up at the end of his perception.
Morris looked curiously at Duncan who suddenly began to “close his eyes and meditate”: “Mr. Duncan, you…”
“Don’t worry, Fanna is still alive,” Duncan opened his eyes with a calm expression, “Just…living in this moment outside of the city-state of Purdue.”
“Can you confirm her location and status?” Morris’ eyes widened in astonishment, he was actually here to convey the news of “historical pollution”, and the mention of Fanna’s situation was just incidental After all, from his point of view, there should be no connection between Duncan and the city-state judge, but he didn’t expect the other party to bet “sight” on Fanna.
“I’m paying attention to her. She’s a very good judge.” Duncan didn’t explain anything, just nodded indifferently, and then suddenly got up from behind the counter, “Excuse me.” Morris stood up in astonishment: “Would you
like What are you going to do?”
Duncan was walking towards the stairs, but he stopped when he heard this, and turned his head slightly: “Go and bring Fan Na back—by the way, let’s see what’s going on ‘over there’.”
Then he paused again, looking at the mess on Morris’s body: “Do you want to go upstairs and take a hot shower and change your clothes? I’m taller than you, but you should be able to wear my clothes.”
Here Take a bath in the subspace lair, and then change into the clothes of the evil god? !
These two items are not mentioned in the “Four Major Achievements of Crazy Scholars”!
Morris suddenly felt his scalp tightening, and quickly shook his head: “No, no, no need, I’ll just wait here…” “
Then please do what you want.” Duncan nodded and said, and then walked up the road. stairs.
As soon as he went upstairs, he saw Nina and Shirley standing at the stairs.
The expression on Shirley’s face was a little uneasy, and she immediately came up to meet Duncan: “Mr. Duncan, is… something wrong?” “Why do you say that
?
” The news came,” Shirley rubbed her hands, lowered her head as if she had done something wrong, “Actually, Agou heard about it, saying that the missionaries appeared again in the end, there was also historical pollution, and there was a man named Fan Na’s person is missing? It sounds like a very important person…”
Nina also looked over anxiously, she was obviously more confused than Shirley: “Uncle, what’s the matter?” “
… some small things,” Duncan looked at the two girls who had vaguely sensed that the turmoil was approaching and felt nervous, and after a moment of consolation, he comforted, “You can just rest in the house, if you are bored, you can go to the first floor to chat with Mr. Morris, it’s okay. Shirley
snorted, but Nina seemed a little hesitant. After holding back for a long time, she couldn’t help but stepped forward and grabbed Duncan’s sleeve: “Uncle, I feel…I feel a little scared. Are you really okay?” And what are you… what are you going to do?”
Duncan stopped and looked into Nina’s eyes quietly.
Just like what he noticed before, Nina’s senses are actually very keen – it’s not that she can’t detect anything, she’s just too sensible.
But the current situation is slightly beyond her “sensible” boundary.
“Uncle, I’m actually a very powerful person,” Duncan laughed suddenly, and put his hand on Nina’s head, “It’s just that I can’t explain it to you now…you can stay with Shirley for a while, and when everything is cleared It’s over, I’ll tell you what’s going on.”
With just this level of reassurance, Nina still felt at ease, she nodded obediently, and her voice was very soft: “…Oh.”
Nina and Shirley went downstairs went.
Duncan suppressed the expression on his face, hurried back to his room, and called out Ay the pigeon who was eating French fries on the Lost Country.
“We have to find someone,” Duncan said with a serious face when he saw the pigeon appear
. Loyalty is unspeakable, loyalty is unspeakable!”
Duncan exhaled slightly, and once again sank his mind, perceiving the cluster of distant, beating flames.
That was the mark he left on Fan Na.
What happened to Fan Na was an accident to him, but this accident also brought unexpected gains.
Through the “window” of Fan Na, he perceived something else just now – those flames that he released in Shirley’s “dream” before!
Those flames appeared briefly in the small church in the sixth block, and then disappeared as the curtain closed again. He could only confirm that the flames were still spreading, but he was still unable to locate them accurately. But now…he can clearly Feel the presence of those flames, feel those flames around Fanna!
Although I don’t know how all this happened, there is no doubt about one thing—
Fan Na has reached the other side of the curtain.
And now, this powerful judge who bears Duncan’s “mark” has become a channel for Duncan to intervene in the curtain.
“Walking in the spirit world.”
