Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 308

On the small metal breastplate, the name “Christo Barberi” and the identity of the captain of the Obsidian are stamped with steel stamps.

This badge made the atmosphere at the scene suddenly quiet and weird – in the quiet and open cabin, there was even only the beating sound of the heart.

“His name is Krystal?” After a long time, it was Alice who broke the silence first. She scratched her hair, seemingly puzzled, “But the…’person’ we saw behind that blue door, Did you say his name is Krystal?”

“If this ship came from the frosty deep sea, then everything on the ship might just be a distorted replica, and every pile of twisted things here might be Krystal, or Anyone on the Obsidian,” Duncan said indifferently, and at the same time his eyes fell on the middle-aged man on the ground who was wide-eyed and covering his mouth with his hands, “the key is this… this remains is obviously very special.” “You

suspect Is he the main body?” Fan Na quickly realized and looked at Duncan in astonishment, “But… the whole ship is obviously a twisted copy, how could the main body be here?

” All the cognitions of Tirian are based on Tirian’s limited memories, and even what Tirian knows is only part of the information in the early stage of the entire Abyss Project-the entire Abyss Project has never really uncovered the seabed below a thousand meters. The secrets of these ‘replicas’,” Duncan shook his head, “We know very little about the conditions of the Frost Seabed, and the conclusions about the laws of these ‘replicas’ are likely to be wrong. A fake is the result of dismantling the main body, and it may even be under the deep sea, there is no difference between the fake and the main body.”

Hearing Duncan’s words, Fan Na couldn’t help but glance at Alice next to her.   Alice didn’t think too much, she just looked at “Christo Barberry” on the ground curiously, and

after thinking for a long time, she suddenly asked, “Why is he covering his mouth?”

With that kind of reaction,” Morris said casually, “it’s not surprising.”

But as soon as he finished speaking, Duncan’s voice suddenly sounded: “No, it’s strange…it’s not because of fear.” Morris looked

at Duncan in some surprise, but saw the latter next to the corpse in a strange and terrifying state He squatted down, and even moved closer to his face, carefully observing something.

Plop, plop, plop.

Christo Barberry’s heart beat continuously, as if as Duncan approached, the beating was faster and stronger than before.

Duncan noticed the change in his heart, but he still focused more on Captain Crystal’s face. After careful observation, he suddenly discovered something.

“There’s something in his mouth.”

“There’s something in his mouth?” Maurice was taken aback, and then he saw Duncan stretch out his hand, trying to break the corpse’s hand away from its mouth.

Duncan was taken aback by the resistance in his hand.

This corpse tightly covered its mouth, as if it was still consciously resisting something today after many years of death!

Duncan didn’t use too much force for the first time, but he failed to break the opponent’s hand. He knew that if he really stepped up his strength, he should be able to easily run over the dead man’s obsession, but before continuing to exert force, he seemed to suddenly Thinking of something, he stopped.

“Mr. Barberry, if you are keeping any secret, you can let it go now,” Duncan said in a calm voice, looking at those angry eyes, “Leave the follow-up matters to me.”

Then One hand loosened.

Below is a mouth clenched in teeth – but the next second, that mouth also relaxes.

Fan Na and Morris looked at each other in astonishment, and then they saw Duncan reaching out his hand, groping for something in Crystal’s slightly opened mouth.

A soft and slightly disgusting touch came, and Duncan frowned, enduring the awkwardness in his heart, and took out some kind of lump he felt from the dead man’s mouth.

It was a lump about the size of a thumb, dark in color with slight blue filaments, very soft to the touch, it felt… like some kind of meat.

It’s a bite off of some larger individual.

“What is this?” Alice was the first to come over curiously, holding Duncan’s arm and looking at the motionless, black and blue piece of meat, and then showed some resistance, “Evil …I don’t like this thing…”

Duncan glanced at Alice in surprise, it was rare for this happy lady doll to express her dislike for something so quickly and clearly.

And after Alice’s voice fell, Fan Na quickly frowned: “I feel a very disturbing aura from this thing-it reminds me of some pollution that has risen from the depths of the world to the real world. “

My intuition tells me that it’s best not to stare at this thing all the time,” Morris also said, “This is probably a warning from the God of Wisdom. Don’t you feel it when you hold this thing?” “

Feeling ? No.” Duncan squeezed the meat in his hand, “It feels a bit disgusting, but I didn’t feel the exaggerated reaction you mentioned.” “

Oh, this is normal, after all, your personality is different from ours, There was no surprise on Morris’s face, and he continued, “But one thing is certain, the thing in your hand is definitely not what it should be in the real world. It should be the most important thread in this ghost ship…” he

said Halfway through, it stopped suddenly.

Because everyone could hear that the beating sound from the beating heart in the air was rapidly weakening.

Duncan lowered his head, staring at Christo’s open chest due to corrosion and distortion, and saw that the heart that was still beating vigorously before was now stained with a layer of gray, and the pulsating sound disappeared within a few seconds. It weakened to almost disappear, and then, under his gaze, the heart suddenly burned, and turned into ashes in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, a low, hoarse, somewhat familiar voice suddenly reached everyone’s ears. The source of this voice could not be identified, and it was even as if the whole ship sighed: “Ah, that’s how it is… Fanna

was the first to react: “It’s the voice behind that blue door!”

Duncan looked at the remains on the floor, and saw that the wreck of “Captain Crystal” was melting like wax. The remains that had been eroded by sea water six years ago seemed to be being polished by the past six years, and they turned into bony bones almost in the blink of an eye.

He immediately made a decision, turned around and walked towards the direction he came from: “Go back the same way.”

The speed when returning was much faster than when exploring.

A group of people quickly passed through this strange, open and dead cabin, passed through the chaotic and twisted slope, and returned to the “captain’s cabin” with the blue door in a short time.

The door was ajar, and behind the door, the biological organization calling itself “Christo Barberi” was still quietly stuck to the wooden board.

Fan Na took a step forward, and almost immediately, the mass of biological tissue seemed to sense the movement around it, and its surface wriggled, making a hoarse and low voice: “Ah, you are back.” “…

Krystal Captain,” Fanna collected herself and tried to calm her tone, “we have something…”

But before she could continue, “Krystal” interrupted her words: “I already know, Ma’am—I recalled it.”

Although there was a vague guess in her heart, Fan Na couldn’t help asking at this moment: “You…remembered?” “

If you mean your own death, then I recalled it, Although there is only one part,” Christo said in a low voice, “I am dead, right? I must be dead… The Obsidian has sunk, we encountered a storm and an iceberg, and we sank, sinking into the boundless darkness ——I have no chance of surviving.”

Duncan was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly took two steps forward: “Do you know what happened in the depths of this ship?”

“Deep?” Crystal’s voice seemed a little puzzled.

“Do you remember the details of your death?” Duncan asked again, “Did you ever fight with something? Did anything happen on the ship after sinking into the deep sea?” Crystal fell silent, as if

thinking , and then a slightly regretful voice came from the mass of biological tissue: “Sorry, I don’t remember these details, I just remember… the ship was sinking, it kept sinking, it was a very, very long process, everyone died, I should die too, but I have been wandering in the dark, the surroundings are cold, and my vision is very dark. I seem to be looking for something in the dark. I don’t know how long this chaotic state lasted——When I have memories again It’s time to knock on this door.”

Duncan exchanged glances with the others.

“Captain Crystal” has no reason to lie.

The captain was only aware of the fact that he was dead, but he didn’t remember what happened in the depths of the Obsidian, nor did he know that the “other self” died in the strange space of the bilge, let alone the mysterious piece of flesh and blood. of origin.

The thread appears to be broken.

But Duncan looked down at the palm of his hand—the dull lump of flesh was still lying quietly in his palm.

He has already had a very important harvest.
