Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 546

[Chapter 544 True Appearance]

In the crew area below the deck, Shirley was staying in her room with a gloomy look on her face, sighing at the pile of exercise books spread out on the table.

“So much… when can I finish it…”

“You can never finish it if you sigh all the time,” Agou muttered next to him, “And it’s not much at all. You just drag it out every day. Write what you have accumulated – Miss Alice can even complete these exercises on time every day, okay?” “

Can her writing method of filling in whatever comes to mind into the questions be called ‘completed’?” Shirley suddenly turned over the page. He rolled his eyes, then put his head on the table, and muttered in a muffled voice, “I want to go ashore to play, I want to go shopping in the city, I want to eat delicious food… Nina said, there is something special about Qingfeng Port It’s so delicious, there’s food all over the world…”

However, Agou had gotten used to Shirley’s nagging many years ago. He shook his head and said unmoved in his tone: “The captain said, When will you finish your procrastinated homework and when can you go ashore to play?”

Shirley curled her lips, then faced the exercise book on the table and thought for a moment, then suddenly turned her eyes, with a mischievous snicker on her face, cautiously She bent down and approached Agou who was lying on the floor: “What about that, why don’t you help me, these questions must be for you…”

However, just as Shirley finished speaking, Agou didn’t even have time. In response, a voice suddenly came from a mirror in front of the desk: “I’m watching.”

Shirley suddenly let out a frustrated and exaggerated “Ah——”, raised her head and looked at the figure emerging from the mirror. Agatha’s figure looked like she was about to cry: “Can’t you just stare at others! Why do you always appear in the mirror no matter what I do!”

Agatha in the mirror looked serious: “Because Captain You said, you want me to watch you do your homework.”

Shirley let out a long sigh and plunged her head into the exercise book on the desk again. She rolled her face in the book several times and then suddenly raised her head again: “Then can you Can’t help…”

Agatha did not hesitate: “No.”

Shirley suddenly started to get confused: “That’s not what the story says! The story says that the magic mirror knows everything. As long as you make a request to the magic mirror, the mirror will tell the answer to the person who asked the question. …”

Agatha frowned: “Where did this weird story

come from?” “The captain told it to Nina, and then Nina told it to me.”

It sounds like Shirley is just messing around. After talking, the expression on Agatha’s face suddenly became serious. After thinking for a few seconds, she looked into Shirley’s eyes and asked: “The captain really told Nina a story about the ‘Magic Mirror'” ?”

“Yes…yes,” Shirley didn’t know why the other party suddenly became serious, and she was a little nervous when she answered, “Just what I said two days ago…”

Agatha began to think very seriously, and whispered softly while thinking. She muttered: “He arranged for me to live in the mirror on the ship… Does it have some other deep meaning…”

Shirley didn’t react at all: “Uh… ah?”

However, Agatha did not answer her, trying hard After thinking for a moment, the “gatekeeper in the mirror” raised his head and glanced at Shirley: “Which question can’t you do?”

Shirley thought for a moment and pushed the exercise book forward: “… This one doesn’t work.”

“This one?!”

“Yeah – if it’s too troublesome, I can learn the oral arithmetic part above…” “

Write it yourself!”

Duncan, who had just returned to the captain’s cabin, raised his head in confusion. , as if listening to the sound coming from the distance.

The goat head on the navigation table suddenly turned his attention: “What’s wrong with you?”

“I seem to ‘hear’ Agatha’s voice,” Duncan said casually. Of course, he didn’t really “hear” anything, but this The ship was constantly conveying information about every corner of the Lost Home to him. “She seems to be in Shirley’s room, and she is quite excited.”

“Do you need to go check on the situation? Or call her over?”

“No,” Duncan shook his head, “Everyone who is responsible for watching Shirley’s homework will eventually become emotional, and this can also be regarded as a This kind of tempering of the mind…”

The goat head said oh, and he didn’t know if it really understood the meaning of this complaint. Duncan silently sensed the status of various places in the Lost Home, and stepped to the table. He sat down and breathed softly: “It’s time for Shirley and Nina to go to the shore to get some air. Lucrecia is about to return to Qingfeng Port, so let her give her a ride.” Goat Head

whispered Paying attention to the captain’s actions and expressions, he finally couldn’t help but say, “You seem to be in a good mood?” “

Maybe it’s because you’ve figured out something, or maybe it’s because you’ve let it go for the time being.” Duncan said with a smile. Eyebrows, but Alice’s sunny appearance appeared in his mind involuntarily, and he couldn’t help but bring out a smile on his lips. Then he shook his head, reached out and took out the bag he had received from Lucretia before. That “sketch”.

Now that the annoyance in my heart has been cleared, it is time to study what Master Tallan Ayre drew in the manuscript he left behind after observing Vision 001.

“What is this?” Seeing Duncan’s actions, the goat head immediately turned his head this way curiously, and there seemed to be a glimmer of light floating in the dark obsidian eyes.

“This is a sketch drawn by Taran El after observing the surface of Vision 001,” Duncan said casually. He unfolded the paper and placed it in front of the oil lamp next to it to shine. “There may be possibilities inside.” The true appearance of the ‘sun’ is hidden, but the most critical details were obliterated by Taran El himself.” The

goat head was stunned and let out an unexplained sigh: “…Oh oh.”

” I thought you would immediately remind me of the dangers of doing this, just like you often did before.” Duncan was a little surprised by the goat head’s reaction. He raised his eyelids and glanced at the guy, “What happened this time? Stop nagging?”

“I used to worry about your safety, but now I only worry about the safety of those who try to oppose you.” The goat head immediately complimented, and he was very skillful in wording and sentence making. “A mere sketch will not threaten you. Great Captain Duncan, even if the true face of the ancient god is drawn on this picture, that’s all. What’s more, the person who drew the picture is just a mortal. What could the man named Taran El see? Where’s the truth?”

Duncan ignored the goat head’s obviously flattering nonsense and concentrated on studying the patterns on the draft paper. However, after looking over and over for a long time, he still could not analyze behind the chaotic scribbles. What happened?

He even felt that… those lines that seemed to be just scribbling were like some kind of powerful “seal”. They “covered” the original image on the paper from a mystical concept, and were not just a layer that interfered with the line of sight. of ink.

As his thoughts were ups and downs, Duncan suddenly felt something in his heart.

A “seal” with “power”?

He lowered his head again and carefully observed the criss-crossing lines and large smear marks on the draft paper.

Master Taran El is a senior and experienced scholar, and a devout believer of Lachem, the god of wisdom… Although he has a lot of problems caused by poor work and rest, his attainments in mysticism are definitely the best. Deep enough.

If such a great scholar really detects some extremely dangerous “factors” when observing Vision 001, he will definitely try to use more “professional” methods to control the danger immediately, even at that time His sanity has begun to be affected…

The ink left on the draft paper should not be simply smeared – so using conventional methods, it is never possible to see the true appearance behind these “inks”.

Is this actually a “secret letter” processed with extraordinary power?

Duncan frowned slightly, a vague idea emerged from the bottom of his heart, and then he turned his head and stared at the oil lamp placed next to him.

Under his gaze, the flame in the oil lamp suddenly jumped, and then quickly became a layer of green.

The spiritual fire expanded and burned, even rising from the opening above the lampshade.

After a slight hesitation, Duncan picked up the scratch paper and placed it over the flame formed by the spiritual fire.

In just an instant, the blazing green flames swallowed up the entire piece of paper!

As expected, there is some kind of “disguise” formed by extraordinary power remaining on it.

When the goat head on the side saw this scene, he exclaimed: “How did you burn it?!” “The

spiritual fire only burned the ‘twisted’ parts,” Duncan looked at the fussing goat head calmly. Likewise, a flick of the wrist extinguished the blazing flames on the draft paper. Under the flames, the fragile draft paper was still intact. “This is what it is.” As he said that, Duncan was about to be burned by the flames

. The “processed” manuscript paper was brought in front of me, and I took a look at the pattern that was re-revealed on it.

The next second, his expression suddenly froze.

The goat head immediately noticed the change in the captain’s expression, and immediately turned its neck to look here with worry and curiosity. However, due to the angle, it could not see the content on the front of the piece of paper, and could only yell: “What’s on that?” ? Are you okay? Then…”

Duncan finally woke up from his daze. He took his eyes away from the paper and looked up at the goat head with a strange expression: “…is the true appearance of the ancient god.”

Goat head: “?!”

Duncan did not speak again, but slowly lowered his head and continued to carefully look at the picture on the draft paper – the sphere locked by the double rune ring, the one shrouded in dark shadows, but the surface was covered with ferocious monsters. The bloodshot eyes and lines seemed to be glaring…

eyeballs.

The body of Vision 001 is a huge eyeball enclosed in a dark spherical shell.
