Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 412
[Chapter 410 Twins]
Amidst the roar of twin artillery fire, a strange twin ghost ship came in, and rushed across the battlefield under the noses of the two warring parties. Those “fake” warships in the depths of the fog were stunned for several seconds.
Then, he heard Aiden’s voice coming from the side: “Boat… Captain, the one who ran past just now seemed to come out of the fog, shall we… fight?” On the bridge, all eyes turned to
them The captain, because what the captain said a moment ago still lingers in everyone’s minds:
After the war, all new things that appear in this sea area are enemies.
“…Fuck!” After a few seconds of embarrassing silence, Tirian finally opened his eyes and shouted, “Can you catch up?! And you didn’t see the shadow of that ship in the sea?”
Ai Den suddenly shrank his neck, and a flash of light flashed across his bare head. He hesitated and said, “I saw it, that shadow… seems to be entwined with a spiritual fire.
” It came from the depths of the hull of the Sea Fog, and at the same time, the whistle above the deck suddenly sounded—this former main battleship of the Lost Fleet, which was transformed by extraordinary power, seemed to be responding spontaneously, affirming the judgment of the chief mate .
“The ship has sensed too.” Aiden looked up and looked around, looking at Tirian with a complicated expression, “Captain, what did you say about the origin of that ship just now?” “…Maybe it was arranged by my father,” said
Tirian With a serious expression on his face, he said in a deep voice, “Don’t delve into it, continue to fight. In addition, inform all friendly forces, including the Frost Navy, not to block that weird ship… Forget it, estimate the speed…” He was just halfway through
, The sailor who was listening to the radio next to him suddenly received some news, and then he stood up and reported loudly: “Captain! The Frost Navy’s ‘Sea Owl’ came to contact, saying that a ghost ship with an extremely fast speed and a strange appearance suddenly appeared. Dash past them, head straight for Frost Island, and they ask if that is our ship.”
Tirian squeezed the center of his brows hard, and waved his hand after a while: “I can’t tell them about the Lost Country – just say it’s a friendly army, and don’t explain anything else. I’ll go to ‘him’ after the battle situation stabilizes. Confirm the situation.”
“Yes, Captain!”
The artillery roared, and the flames and explosions in the fog did not calm down a little because of this momentary interlude. Among the huge water columns rising into the sky in the distance, Tirian looked thoughtfully. Penetrating through the dense fog in the combat zone, he quietly watched the direction in which the strange ship left just now.
…
“I feel like we bumped into something just now!”
Lawrence hurried back to his desk from the porthole, said loudly to a small mirror placed on the desk, and then looked up uneasily Outside, the sea area outside the porthole is dim and hazy, as if there are countless shadowy and illusory things floating on the sea surface, and it is impossible for people to distinguish which is real and which is phantom.
And the White Oak itself was passing through those phantoms at an astonishing speed.
A black mist surged in the mirror, and a female adventurer wearing a captain’s uniform appeared in the mist.
“We didn’t hit each other,” Martha said with a happy smile on her face, “we just almost hit each other.” “
Nearly hitting it is already scary!” Lawrence picked up the small mirror and walked towards the window He said quickly, “I didn’t find out when there was no reference just now—what speed are we now?!” “
Very fast, very very fast—an invisible phantom that can pass through the waves like the wind,” Martha smiled and looked into Lawrence’s eyes through the mirror, “Do you remember what you said to me many years ago? You said that you would transform the White Oak and Black Oak into the best pioneer exploration ships, Then come with me, skim across the sea like the wind… my love, we are at least seven to eighth level now.”
“I’m a metaphor! A metaphor!” Lawrence’s eyes were full of horror, because just as he opened his mouth, he watched another huge phantom almost brushing the porthole in front of him and skimming backwards. The phantom ship The bridge is tall, the turrets on the side of the hull are pointing far away, it is fighting fiercely with the enemy in another dimension, and the White Oak-Black Oak seems to rush directly in front of the muzzle of its main gun.
After a while, Lawrence raised his hand and tapped his forehead, sighing, “Forget it, as long as you can guarantee safety, what’s the situation outside now?” “
We are crossing the sea area of the war zone.” Martha’s tone was gentle and calm.
“War zone? Who is fighting?”
Martha in the mirror turned her head, as if she was observing the situation on her side, and turned her gaze back after a while: “The Frost Navy in the real world, and the famous Frost Navy The Sea Mist Fleet, and their opponents are the fakes that floated up from the mirror image to the real world.”
Lawrence’s heart sank, his expression became serious: “…The last moment has come?”
“It seems that it has arrived,” Martha said He said softly, “The mirror image is being merged with the real world, and the final ‘inverting’ process has begun.” “
Why so fast? Didn’t you say that this process is not so early?”
“I can only make general speculations, Lawrence— After leaving the ranks of fakes, the connection between me and this mirror world has been weakening rapidly. I don’t know what happened, but it is obvious that someone has consciously accelerated the process of mirror inversion…” Lawrence didn’t speak for a while, just looked
at Looking out of the window, looking at the hazy and chaotic sea and the illusory phantoms passing by, he suddenly asked after a few seconds: “Are we still sailing in the mirror sea?” “Yes,
we are still trapped in this In the mirror world,” Martha nodded, “but the barrier between the mirror image and the real world is blurring—we don’t have much time left.” “What will happen if the
inversion is really completed?” Lawrence asked .
“A city-state becomes a hotbed for the descending of ancient gods. What do you think will happen?” Martha asked calmly.
Lawrence rubbed his temple subconsciously.
“…Damn it, how far are we from Frost?”
“We’re almost there,” Martha raised her hand in the mirror and pointed out the window, “I can already see the lights of the port area from my side, countless Ships are gathering in the surrounding waters, shipwrecks from the past half century, countless replicas – but they turn a blind eye to the Black Oak, at least for the time being.” Lawrence nodded solemnly, and he took the side to use
with The mirror where Martha talked, pushed open the door to leave her captain’s cabin, and asked in a deep voice as she walked towards the bridge:
” What do you need me to do after arriving at Frost?” The power to create and maintain this mirror world lies deep in the frost, and I can feel its general orientation,” the smile on Martha’s face turned serious, she looked into Lawrence’s eyes, and her tone was extremely serious, “And once you start looking for it, the fakes entrenched around the city-state should react immediately, and I will find a way to hold them back.” “…Can you deal with it with just
two ships of black oak and white oak? You As I said just now, countless ships are gathering…”
“We are part of the Lost Fleet, Lawrence,” Martha smiled again, “and we are not the only ones participating in this battle. Lawrence
quickly reacted, and looked out the corridor window thoughtfully.
Those shadowy and huge ship shadows are fighting on the distant sea. As time goes by, the boundary between the mirror image and the reality is further blurring. Soon, including the mirror image frost and the real frost, the entire sea area will be blurred. burn up.
“I understand.” Lawrence nodded, looked away from the window, and continued to walk quickly towards the bridge, “but there is one last question—I can lead the team into Frost, but how should we deal with it? That…’thing’ in the depths of the city-state? If it is, as you said, an ancient god or a part of an ancient god, then ordinary weapons may not be able to deal with it.”
The bridge is here.
Lawrence collected himself and stepped forward to push open the door.
His first mate, second mate, the ship’s chaplain, and his crew were all waiting for him here.
And that weird-looking anomaly 077-sailor—this mummy found a crew cap from the White Oak and put it on top of his head. At the moment, he is also sitting on a certain chair, curious And focused on studying the work of other crew members.
Lawrence walked towards them, and the crew rose to salute him.
Martha’s voice came from the mirror: “You will have a helper.”
Lawrence responded to the greetings from the crew, and when he heard it, he looked at Martha in the mirror in surprise: “Helper?”
“Yes , helper——For many years in the past, they have been fighting in the depths of this mirror world, trying to break through the gate leading to the deepest part of the city-state, but they have never been successful. You don’t need to explain why you are here. They will naturally become your help…probably.”
“Probably?!”
“Because I’m not sure what kind of existence they are, and whether they can communicate with people—Lawrence, you know, although I’m I’ve been wandering here for many years, but I don’t have much freedom.”
“Okay, I see, helper,” Lawrence sighed, and then he couldn’t help but be curious, “I thought we were the only ones around here.” Fakes’ against each other, I didn’t expect there to be other people, who are they?”
“They call themselves…the Queen’s Guard.”
