Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 457
[Chapter 455 Information Flow]
A dark green flame rises in the captain’s cabin, and the skeleton bird covered with spiritual fire flies out of the fire, and the swirling flames form a door like a vortex behind it. After the door is opened, Fanna, Alice and Morris stepped into the cabin.
As soon as the dizziness caused by the light and shadow replacement subsided, they turned to the nautical table not far away, and bowed to Duncan who was sitting behind the table studying the chart: “Captain.” “Find a place to sit and rest for a while,
send It’s easy to fall when you walk around afterward,” Duncan said without raising his head, and then confirmed a few points on the chart, then heaved a sigh of relief, straightened up and looked at Morris, “Did you bring the book?” “
Yes Yes,” Morris nodded quickly, then took out the dark-covered and untitled “Book of Blasphemy” from his arms, got up and handed it to Duncan, “here.” Duncan reached out to take the book, and Fanna on the
side Then he couldn’t help but said: “Now Morris, Alice and I are back on the boat, and only your avatar is left on the city-state… Is it okay?” “There will be no more
big troubles in the city, and Tirian will Become Frost’s new consul, with him and Agatha maintaining the order of the city-state, there is nothing to worry about,” Duncan said with a smile, “For you, the work in Frost City has been done, and there will be follow-up finishing , my avatar can handle it.”
As he spoke, Duncan sat back behind the nautical table while holding the thick black book, and he placed it next to the chart, with a serious expression on his face stand up.
This is the “Book of Blasphemy” obtained by Morris and Vanna from the little leader of the Annihilation Cultists. It records the content about the Youshen Lord, and it seems to refer to some events before the creation of the gods and the time of the Great Annihilation. secret.
Just from the outside, apart from the dark cover and no title, there is nothing special about this book, and there is no extraordinary aura exuding from it.
Fanna, Morris, and Alice have already approached curiously, and except for the heartless Alice, the other two keep a certain safe distance, not daring to cast their eyes directly on the book .
The goat’s head wood carving on the edge of the nautical table also creaked and turned its neck, turning its head curiously to the big book in front of Duncan. After reading it for a long time, it finally couldn’t help but say: “What is this? A book? It’s worth it. Are you so serious?”
“Theoretically, it is the missionary manuscript of the Annihilation Cultists,” Duncan said casually, “It seems to record something related to the creation of the gods. Although it is the crazy theory of the cultists, part of it is The content… makes me very concerned.”
“The record of the creation of the gods?” Goat’s head was taken aback for a moment, and then his tone changed subtly, “The ‘Deep Lord Creation’ of those lunatics? With all due respect, In my opinion, their theory has no reference – if you can fabricate a history of the birth of the world without rigorous evidence and reasoning, then any drunken playwright can explain the foundation of our world , and there is even an absurd play claiming that our world is made out of a pot of stew…” “
But Morris was mentally polluted while reading this book, and even attracted the attention of the four gods,” Duncan raised his eyelids unhurriedly, “You should know what this means.”
There was a “crack” sound under the goat’s head’s neck, and he didn’t speak for a long time.
After an unknown period of time, it choked out a sentence: “The closer you are to the truth, the farther you are from reason…” “Yes, the
first rule of anomalies and visions—the closer you are to the truth, the farther you are from reason,” said the side Morris nodded in a serious tone, “The more likely an item is to cause serious mental pollution, the more likely it is to record the true attitude of the world inside, so at some point, scholars will even read some ancient books based on what they are reading. The credibility of the content of the ancient scroll can be judged by the degree of mental damage after the scroll.” The
goat head shook his head in place, and after thinking for a long time, he couldn’t help but said: “But huge distortions and pure supernatural power can also cause mental damage. Pollution, in which case the facts point in the opposite direction—the more damaged the mind, the more deceived it is.”
Speaking of this, it paused, and added: “I’m serious, Morris and your industry have a lot of unlucky people who died here, and the group of people who didn’t die mistakenly thought I know the truth, and now most of them are listed in the heretical arrest warrants of the major churches—of course, you are on this ship now, and if you want to be serious, you are actually in the arrest warrants…” The goat
head The painting style is weird, but after getting along for so long, it is obvious that it still has some sincerity towards the members on the ship. Its words are not pleasant, but the concern in it is not fake.
Of course Morris also knew this, so he didn’t mind, but sincerely said to the goat head: “Thank you for your concern, you are right, this world is very good at fooling mortals, and curiosity often leads us in the opposite direction— —That’s why, now it’s time for the captain to take final control.”
“Captain…” Goat’s head was stunned, and then he noticed that Duncan’s hand was already on the cover of the big black book, and it seemed that he was about to open it , “Ah? Are you sure you want to see it?” “Otherwise?” Duncan raised his head, “I asked
Morris to bring this thing on board to serve as a base for you?”
Swaying: “Actually, it’s not impossible…”
Duncan didn’t care about this guy’s obvious act of playing tricks. He was already prepared, and finally took a deep breath to let his energy gradually concentrate.
A faint green flame rose from the body, turning the body into a spirit form in an instant. After confirming that he had completed the transformation, Duncan opened the first page of the big black book.
At first glance, he saw that there was no writing on the page.
With a second glance, he saw boundless darkness suddenly gathering from all directions.
In an instant, the light and shadow changed, and there was no time to react—just like when he used the spiritual compass for the first time, Duncan’s consciousness suddenly “falled” into a boundless darkness.
He raised his head in astonishment, and saw that all the familiar objects in the captain’s cabin had disappeared, including Goat’s Head, Morris and others, and he didn’t even know the big black book he was reading a second ago. where.
He stood in the dark, frowning and thinking for a few seconds.
The situation wasn’t right—it wasn’t the same process as Morris described.
After opening this book by myself, a completely different change happened when Morris opened the book!
And at this moment, something suddenly appeared in the corner of his eye.
Zhou Ming looked subconsciously, and saw the tiny white light and shadow floating in the mid-air not far from him. He focused on distinguishing it again, and finally found…it was words.
The text became clear—
“After he opened the book, a completely different change occurred from when Morris opened the book.”
Zhou Ming was suddenly stunned.
He stood there motionless, quietly watching the line of words floating in mid-air, for a moment he even forgot to breathe and think.
After some time, he suddenly remembered something.
He remembered that he had seen similar places, he had visited the same darkness as here, and saw words in the darkness – that was in the subspace… “It was in the subspace, sailing in the
subspace On the dilapidated Lost Home, push open the door leading to the captain’s cabin, there is a dark place, words emerge from the darkness, depicting…” The
pale words quickly appeared in the mid-air, but soon gradually faded away. subside.
Zhou Ming stopped suddenly—he was controlling himself, trying not to think wildly, which was very difficult, but after filling his mind with a lot of messy numbers, words and meaningless scenery memories, the things that appeared in front of his eyes The text in the dark literally disappears.
Afterwards, he worked hard again, restraining his thoughts while calming his pounding heart.
what is happening? What is this darkness? What are these words emerging from the darkness?
They seem to describe “myself”… Are they really describing “myself”? What does this “description” mean?
Is this some kind of mind-reading process? Or some kind of “reflection” phenomenon at the soul level? The last time I saw a similar dark space was on the Dilapidated Lost Home in the subspace, but this time it was after opening that book—why does that book have such a “power”?
Various thoughts could not help appearing in his mind, and almost at the same time, new words appeared in the darkness.
But this time, the text is not describing “himself”, but a few words without beginning and end-
“Realization…transformation into reality…real…”
Zhou Ming frowned, subconsciously approaching After reading the new line of text, he stretched out his finger and tried to touch it.
His fingers passed through the phantoms, and there were only slight ripples in the darkness.
And in the shaking of the ripples, he actually vaguely saw that there seemed to be other words hidden behind those words!
He only hesitated for a second, then stretched out his hand, and continued to fiddle with the handwriting that was like the reflection in the water, making the ripples expand, making the overlapping words reveal their true faces, and making other information hidden in the dark depths emerge. In his field of vision——
suddenly, he saw a few intermittent lines of text emerging from the darkness, they were shaking, extending and moving downwards.
“The source of the letter—Queen Leviathan—the situation… is not optimistic, and the critical state is accelerating…”
“The source of the letter—the Lord of Fire—is there a new record?”
“The source of the letter—Bartok—— —Bad news…the feedback from the nodes is vague…it is suspected that the cluster controller has begun to replicate itself…or has completely lost control…” “
…the source-LH02-relevant information.” “
…specifically?”
“… LH-02——An individual with the characteristics of a cluster controller was observed approaching, suspected to have a mental mutation, and suspected to be able to communicate with me.” “The
source of the message-Queen Leviathan-amazing information! Follow-up?”
“The source of the message- LH-02 – No follow-up.”
“The source of the letter-Bartok—?”
“The source of the letter-LH-02——the suspicious individual sent a dog’s head and left.”
