Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 510
[Chapter 508 The Popes of the Four Gods]
When the storm comes, mortals will flee in all directions because of the roar of thunder—but the thunder itself does not care about the attitude of mortals, its roar is only due to its own existence, just like the loss of homeland The existence of the number itself is enough to interfere with the order of the entire boundless sea.
Under this premise, it seems meaningless to consider whether that “Captain Duncan” would care about being regarded as a heretic by the mortal church. Thinking about it, the image of the Lost Homeland itself in the eyes of the civilized world seems to be no better than “heretical”…
“I will discuss this matter with the three popes, Helena, Banster and Fram,” Lu said. En said to Morris, “There will be voices of doubt and panic among the bishops, but the attitude of the four of us should soon be unified-regardless of the source, at least the ‘warning’ itself needs to be taken seriously. “
“I knew you would look at this rationally,” Morris said with a hint of relaxation in his voice, “You are still the same as before.” “You are very different from then
, Morris,” said Lune There was an exclamation in the tone, “When I heard that you fell into a trough, many people sighed because of it. I didn’t expect you to recover so quickly, let alone your recovery… to become a member of the Lost Country. Seriously, there are very few things that have shocked me for thousands of years, and this is the one thing that shocked me the most.” “
Life on board is actually pretty good—it can even be said to be better than life in the city-state.” It’s okay here, although life at sea brings some troubles, but here, I see new things almost every day, and deal with various things that I have never heard of before…” “You sound like
a ship for yourself now Proud ‘crew’,” Luen couldn’t help but say, “I’m really curious, what are you doing on that ship?”
Morris was silent for half a minute.
Many things came to his mind—teaching lessons for deep demons, cursed dolls, and demon contractors, sailing in the spirit world, eating deep-sea children, reading books with the sun fragments, and watching the latter burn all kinds of things from books every day. The heresy and filth that came out…
“…positive and healthy academic research.” Morris said seriously.
“Oh, it sounds very good,” Lu En nodded, but he couldn’t help reminding, “But I still want to say, you should be more vigilant, maybe as you said, that ‘Captain Duncan’ has really regained his strength.” Human nature, but as a mortal, living on the Lost Home and getting along with a subspace shadow day and night is a dangerous thing in itself. You should be careful to touch all unknown things to avoid affecting your spirit and cognition…” “Thank
you Your reminder, teacher, but please rest assured, you know that I have always been a cautious student—even when I was conducting the most dangerous research in the academy, I would definitely be fully prepared. An accident.”
Lu En, who had returned to his seat behind the desk, fell silent after hearing this.
But the elf old man couldn’t help recalling the time when Morris was studying in the Academy of Truth many years ago.
Cautious… There are indeed many cautious students in the academy, but everyone’s understanding of this word is not so similar.
There is a kind of student who will immediately try to isolate and seal the books when they see dangerous classics, and avoid touching them far away. This is called caution.
There is also a kind of student who immediately pours half a catty of mixed potions into himself when he comes into contact with forbidden knowledge, hangs amulets all over his body, and then prepares three pistols of the largest caliber—they also call this prudence.
The second type of students has a high chance of sudden death, but as long as they survive, they will often have high achievements. The most outstanding legendary scholars in the School of Truth are often like this.
But even the most legendary group of people, none of them can reach the height of running on the Lost Homelander to chat and laugh happily with a warp god.
After a long silence, the old elf behind the desk finally broke the silence softly: “Morris…”
“Teacher, tell me.”
“…You are doing great things.”
“Thank you for your expectations.”
“No, what I mean is, if one day you make too much trouble, please tell me in advance, you can help me Just help, I can run ahead if I can’t help.”
“…”
The connection established by the psychic communication was broken, and the resonance between thinking and perception also receded like a tide, Lu En narrowed his eyes slightly, Feeling the departure of his former apprentice, he didn’t completely relax until he confirmed that Morris’s consciousness was safely out of the psychic channel.
And a faint, eerie noise that seemed to be whispered by countless people still lingered in his mind, and it took a long time before it gradually dissipated.
Feeling the impact of the noise on his own mind, Rune couldn’t help sighing softly.
“…permanent madness critical, but still maintain rational sobriety… This is really an incredible situation. Is this also the influence exerted by that ‘captain’?
” The knowledgeable old elf shook his head, and then sat quietly at the desk, as if waiting for someone to visit.
He didn’t have to wait long.
The illusory and fuzzy sound of sea waves suddenly appeared in his mind, and gradually merged into clear and continuous waves, followed by calls of flames and death. Rune sighed during these calls, and then glanced at the table next to him, which was still reacting After confirming that there are enough remaining substances in the container, he gradually sinks his mind—
this study is the “sacrifice ground” where he held the psychic communication ceremony. All the simple and solemn bookshelves, classics and desks here The alchemy devices on it are all items needed to perform the ritual.
Darkness surged, and then dispersed like fog. At the end of the deep and dark passage, the figures of the three popes of the deep sea, death, and fire bearer emerged.
Lu En walked through the passage and came to the three old friends. He greeted them with a slight nod, and said before they opened their mouths: “It seems that you have also received the news.”
“Banster and I have received letters from our saints,” Helena, the Pope of the Deep Sea, said, pointing to the silent and tall figure opposite her, “Frem just arrived, we just got in time Tell him the general situation.”
The tall figure called Fram nodded slightly.
He is the leader of the fire bearers, the endorsement of the eternal burning flame “Tarijin” in the world. From the appearance, he may be the most striking one among the four popes – an unusually tall body, as gray and tough as a rock His skin and the metallic texture on its surface indicated his race.
He is a strong Sen’jin man, wearing a dark gold robe representing the identity of the Pope of the Firebearer. He has short gray hair and a sharp-edged face. He looks taciturn and extremely serious.
For some time in the past, the pope, the flame spreader, has been patrolling the borders of the civilized world with his own patrol fleet, rarely participating in gatherings between the four, and this is the first time he has recently appeared.
“I haven’t fully understood the situation yet,” Fram said, his voice so low that it sounded like it came from a stone, “I haven’t had any saints abducted to that ship yet.” Helena who was next to him heard the
words Suddenly he frowned strangely, and said in a low voice: “Our saints were not kidnapped…” “
They contacted Captain Duncan, they were wary of Captain Duncan, they agreed with Captain Duncan, they joined Captain Duncan,” Frey said. Mu glanced at Helena, the expression on his face was still like a stone, “I think it was turned up.”
Helena: “…”
The tall, thin and old-faced Pope Banster saw this , coughed twice: “It’s not the first day you know Fram, he’s always been like this.
” To discuss the matter of ‘saints being abducted onto the ship’, what we want to discuss is the warning from the Lost Home.”
Lu En raised his head: “Do you have any questions?”
“Yes,” Helena said immediately, her gaze fell on Luen, “I want to know what happened to those huge biological tissues under the city-state? From the description, it looks like it supports the church The ‘Leviathan’ monsters of the Ark… are they the same thing?”
“The four church arks were all built by the Institute of Truth, including the technology to ‘resurrect’ and control Leviathan, and you also came up with it,” said Ben Ster also immediately looked at Rune and said, “But you never revealed where you found the ‘corpses’ of those ‘Leviathans’, let alone those Leviathan monsters and the bottom of the city-state. The connection between the structures… We have reason to believe that the Academy of Truth holds some special ‘truths’.”
Fram did not speak, but kept his face like a stone sculpture, calmly staring into Rune’s eyes.
However, in the face of these three stressful gazes, Lu En just spread his hands frankly.
“I don’t know what’s under the city-state.”
“You don’t know?” Helena opened her eyes slightly, “The Academy of Truth has ‘resurrected’ four Leviathans, but you say you don’t know what’s under the city-state’ What’s going on with Leviathan?”
Lu En just asked calmly: “Gomona, Goddess of Storms, is the Queen of Leviathan—as the favored servant of Goddess of Storms, do you know more than me?”
Helena frowned, but didn’t speak.
“I believe that you should have tried to ask the giant Leviathan that hosts the Cathedral of Storms, and it must not be able to give you any answers – because even they themselves don’t know about their own species.” Lu En
sighed He took a breath and shook his head slightly.
“The history of our world has been shattered. Even giant beasts from ancient times cannot clearly recall the events before the Great Annihilation. Did you know that ‘Captain Duncan’ even gave this phenomenon a special mention? The name…
“He called it – the ‘horizon limit’ of the time dimension. “
