Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 539
[Chapter 537 Gift]
“Dream of the Nameless?”
Agatha and Goat’s Head immediately looked at each other when they heard the unfamiliar words thrown out by the captain.
“Where did you hear this word?” After thinking for a while, Agatha asked, “Is this part of the ‘information’ you just got?
” The ‘dream’ that Ya once fell into,” Duncan nodded slowly, “the original source of information may have come from the final missionaries, and then the Annihilation Cultists and Sun Cultists responded to some kind of ‘call’ from those missionaries. If the information If it is correct, this so-called ‘dream of the nameless’ should be something similar to a ‘vision’. It covers many dreams on a large scale, and the elves… seem to be the ones who enter the nameless under certain conditions. The ‘channel’ of the dream.”
Speaking of this, he paused, and then continued: “Those cultists seem to be looking for something in the depths of the dream of the unknown with their own goals. The purpose of the Sun Sect is unknown, but the annihilation The goal of the sect seems to be a so-called ‘initial blueprint’.”
Agatha’s expression became serious with the naked eye: “I have never heard of this so-called ‘Dream of the Nameless’, but it stands to reason that this scale The “vision” of the “vision”… It is impossible that no one has known it for so many years. You just said that the elves will become a “channel” under certain conditions?”
Duncan nodded slightly: “According to those oblivion believers, there seems to be something in the elves. The ‘flaw in the blueprint stage’, which causes their spirits to establish a connection with the ‘dream of the unknown’, should be related to the theory of the creation of the secluded Lord, but there is not enough specific information.” “…Sorry,
Captain , it seems that we can’t give you any useful answers,” Agatha thought for a moment, and finally shook her head apologetically, “But since this matter directly points to the race of ‘Elves’, then we can just Investigate in Breezy Harbor, the city-state of the elves—and here, an elf has just fallen into that dream.”
Duncan hummed, adjusted his sitting posture, leaned back on the chair, lightly tapped the armrest of the seat with his fingers, and his eyes fell on the foggy sea chart: “It is indeed necessary to talk to that tower Master Lan Eyre, have a good chat… go and meet the Bright Star, and it’s time to say hello to Lucrecia.” …
Outside
of Lightwind Harbor, somewhere in the open sea near the “Luminous Falling Object” , the Brilliant Star was slowly patrolling, and the diffuse sunlight covered the sea, making the ship seem to be roaming on fine golden sands.
The gentle sea breeze blows head-on, and the wind carries the unique warmth of the southern sea—however, Master Taran Ayer standing on the deck always feels a bit cold from time to time, and he couldn’t help tightening his coat in the wind , turned her head to look at the “Sea Witch” who was standing on a mast behind her, and shouted loudly: “Are we waiting here?” Lucrezia
looked down at the great scholar on the deck, her eyes The voice was not loud, but it came directly to Taran Ayer’s ears clearly: “We will wait here.” “
Can I go back?” At this time, it’s not good for me to be an outsider!”
Lucrezia said blankly, “Father said, he wants to talk to you.”
Taran Al raised his hands with a sad face: “Then can you Come down and stay with me? I…I feel a little nervous!”
Lucrezia glanced at him condescendingly: “You are an adult and a prestigious university student, you should learn to relieve your stress. “
… Ms. Lucrecia, you are also nervous, right?!”
“Why should I be nervous about this kind of thing? It’s mine…”
The voice from the mast suddenly stopped, and the tower Lan Elton was taken aback for a moment, and was about to ask about the situation, but was suddenly interrupted by a strong palpitation.
It was a warning from spiritual intuition suddenly, it was the instinctive tension of a “scholar” who has been dealing with various dangerous objects and hidden knowledge all year round when the truth is approaching, and Taran Ayer broke out in a layer of cold sweat in an instant , Immediately afterwards, I heard some kind of low-pitched noise, as if the breath of a giant beast came into my ears.
The next moment, thick fog and terrifying light and shadow suddenly filled his field of vision.
In a place close to the Brilliant Star, on the sea that was calm and peaceful just a second ago, thick fog suddenly appeared like a high wall, and the chaotic light and shadow brought by the reversal of the spirit world seemed to swarm from the fog Out, a huge shadow rises from the spirit world and descends from the dense fog—
as described in many terrible sea legends, it is wrapped in darkness and chaos, burning with doomsday flames, as if a nightmare suddenly appeared A body was condensed in the real world, as if an unavoidable fate was crushing on the face, within a few breaths, the majestic Lost Home broke into reality.
Taran Ayer stood on the deck like a stone sculpture. He heard a “gudong” sound from a certain direction, but he didn’t even have the courage to turn his head to look. It took several seconds before he recovered his breath. and feel the strong beating of his heart—the potion that Ms. Lucrezia gave herself before still exerts a strong protective effect, allowing his healthy viscera to continue to be reliable under the severe impact. running.
Then, the scholar gradually came to his senses. He regained the ability to speak, and quickly turned to look at the place where the “witch” was standing before: “Ms. Lucrecia! Your father…” On the
mast There was no sign of the witch.
Taran Al was stunned for a moment, looked around subconsciously, and shouted loudly: “Ms. Lucrecia! Lu…”
“Stop shouting, I’m here.”
An indifferent voice with a hint of warning suddenly It came from a very close place, interrupting the scholar’s yelling. Taran Ayer hurriedly looked back, only to see that Lucrezia had arrived on the deck at some point, with a calm expression on her face. Standing aside, while resting his forehead in a graceful posture, he gazed at the bow of the Lost Home.
“Ah, where did you go just now? As soon as I turned around, you…”
“Shut up,” Lucrezia interrupted the university student with a bad attitude, ” Father doesn’t like people who yell during meetings.” Looking at the big ship that was burning with ghost flames, at almost the same time, he saw a flame appear out of thin air on the deck of the Bright Star—the flame rose rapidly, forming a revolving door, and then, there was A tall figure stepped out of it.
Considering that this was his first visit to the Bright Star, Duncan chose to come alone in order to avoid confusion at the scene.
Now, he finally set foot on this ship——one of the only two surviving ships of the former Lost Fleet, the Brilliant Star.
He also finally met Lucrezia, the daughter of “Duncan Abnomar” in reality.
The “Sea Witch” was wearing a black dress with an adventurer’s style. She hesitated and took a few steps towards him, but stopped a few meters away. Restraint——Although I tried my best to conceal it, I couldn’t hide the tension and hesitation at all.
Duncan couldn’t help recalling some of the things Tyrian revealed to himself before leaving Frost—
“Lucy gives the impression of being indifferent and withdrawn and moody, but in essence it’s because she’s not socially good and can’t express her emotions accurately… …
“She will reveal her secrets when she is nervous, so she always avoids getting herself into a tense situation, which is why the ‘Sea Witch’ always comes and goes in a hurry, and seems to do her own way… “When she is too embarrassed, she is not at all
. Knowing how to speak up, it gives the impression of being extremely impolite, arrogant and eccentric, but if someone is willing to speak to her to break the silence at this time, she will be very happy…” In Frost, Duncan was always in
Tirian He maintains his image of “amnesia due to the influence of the subspace” in front of him. Thanks to this, he can openly ask the other party about a lot of things related to Lucrecia. Now this information can obviously be used .
“Long time no see.” After a moment of adjustment, Duncan showed a faint smile, and he walked towards the “Sea Witch”, “Lucy, I’m back.”
He tried to act well according to the preview in advance and according to his own understanding.” Duncan Abu Normar”.
However, while saying hello like this, a faint emotion that permeated directly from the bottom of his heart quietly emerged in his heart. In this faint and vague emotion, he once again felt the slight nostalgia and… regret .
He is no stranger to this feeling—every body he occupies will have a similar reaction when encountering important people or things in his “lifetime”.
This time, Duncan didn’t try to control and ignore this feeling, but let it flow slowly in his heart, and then slowly fade away.
The expression on Lucrezia’s face changed slightly several times. No one knew what this “witch” was thinking in just a few seconds, so she was stunned for a while. In the end, all The memories and the once intense emotions were all settled into a small voice:
“Dad, you have been away for too long this time…”
Duncan was silent for a while, then stretched his hand into his arms: “I brought you A gift.”
“A gift?” Lucrezia raised her head in a daze.
Duncan stretched out his hand and slowly opened his palm.
A small silver hairpin in the shape of sea waves and feathers lay quietly in his palm.
Lucrezia was a little dazed, she stared blankly at the small hairpin, blinked her eyes as if waking up suddenly after a while, and stretched out her hand hesitantly.
The hairpin is real, with a hard touch and a slight temperature—the temperature of a living person.
The “witch” held this gift, and after a long, long time, she seemed to show a little smile, and said in a soft voice: “…you sent it so slowly, it’s all out of date, it’s been out of date for a century… After a
while, she seemed to take a light breath.
“Thank you.”
