Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 553

[Chapter 551 Afternoon]

Faced with the power of the words “witnessed by the four gods”, Sarah Mel finally reluctantly agreed with Lucretia’s judgment.

No matter what the nature of the stars mentioned by the sea witch is, no matter what the true way of existence of Duncan Abnomar is today, at least, the leaders of the Pilgrimage Ark who can directly communicate with the four gods have made a decision to deal with the lost homeland. No. “cooperate”, then this decision itself is a very powerful “evidence”.

Or to put it in a more extreme way – if even the judgments and instructions given by the four gods are wrong, then there is no such thing as a disaster. The “four gods making mistakes” itself is the biggest disaster.

“We know very little about subspace. All the laws in the real world may be subverted in that area.” Lucretia turned her head and looked through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the office, as if looking at the sea in the distance. , and said unhurriedly, “When the Homeless Ship ‘returns’ to our real world from subspace, a series of changes will inevitably occur. You must know that it only suffered a little impact at the beginning, and the Brilliant Star and the Sea The foghorn has become what it is today, but what about the Homeless Horn that has been immersed in subspace for a century? Where is my father? “

There are many things that should have been expected. “

She withdrew her gaze from the window and turned her head to look quietly into Sarah Meyer’s eyes.

“Frankly speaking, I don’t even care now how much of his ‘essence’ is the original Duncan Ebb. Nomar – Even if there is only one glimmer in the starlight that belongs to him, I will be willing to meet him for that glimmer. As long as he still stands on the side of ‘mortal’ on the whole, that is enough. “

Listening to the witch’s calm narration, Sarah Mel’s eyes changed several times, and finally she sighed: “Yes, at least it is a friendly existence, which is much better than a real subspace ghost. “

Lucrecia didn’t speak anymore, just nodded slightly.

“What’s the situation like with Scholar Tallan?” Sarah Meyer asked after a moment of silence. “It is said that he fell into a ‘dream crisis’ and that you and your father solved it together?

” Yes, I’m about to say this next,” Lucretia immediately adjusted her expression and said quite seriously, “About the so-called ‘dream’ that Master Taran El fell into, there is probably more to it than you imagine. It’s more complicated. My father confirmed some information related to those heretics…”

In the next ten minutes, she told the governor in front of her everything she knew, including the purpose of annihilating the cultists and what they were doing. The situation of the children of the sun seen in the dream.

After that, she incidentally mentioned the information coming from the city-state of Puland – about the fourth long night mentioned by the “Preacher of the End” and those “sermons” that were blabbering.

Sarah Meyer listened carefully with a serious expression and did not interrupt from beginning to end.

It wasn’t until Lucretia finished speaking and the office was quiet for more than ten seconds that the consul with rich life experience slowly nodded.

“The Dream of the Nameless One… There is indeed no such term in the elven cultural system, but it sounds really reminiscent of the ‘Dream of Creation’ of the demon god Saslokar,” Sarah Meyer said thoughtfully Said thoughtfully, “But if there really is such a huge ‘dream’, why has no one discovered its existence for thousands of years? Those pagans said that elves are the ‘channel’ leading to this dream, but As far as I know, something like Taran El has never happened before.” “

We have also discussed this, and the most likely explanation is that the appearance of the Dream of the Nameless One is also approaching the ‘Fourth Long Night’ One of the signs and evidence.”

Sarah Meyer reacted immediately: “It means…”

“The dream of the Nameless One may have only appeared recently, or ‘appeared’,” Lucretia said seriously, “It may have been in a dormant state, or in a ‘suppressed’ state, so no one has ever noticed its existence, but as the fourth long night approaches, it gradually becomes active…”

Sarah Mel did not speak. He frowned, then slowly raised his head, looking at the bright sunshine outside the window – the “sun” locked by the double rune rings was crossing the highest point in the sky and would soon arrive. It’s late afternoon.

After an unknown amount of time, he finally broke the silence softly, but he was repeating the “sermons” of those final evangelists as if talking to himself – “…

Dusk is approaching, the sun begins to become ‘miler’, so those What was once exiled and erased began to return to this world…”

…

At the gate, Nina carefully checked what she was wearing and what she was going to bring.

The temperature in this southern city-state is much higher than that in Puland. Even though it is the cooler late autumn, she still has to wear light clothes when going out. She put on her favorite skirt and paired it with a new one. Light sandals make you feel happy.

When I went out, I brought my keys, change, and map with me in my small bag. Following Ms. Lucretia’s reminder, I also brought mosquito repellent tablets and potions, so I should be fully prepared.

Finally, there are friends to take with you when you go out.

Nina turned her head and looked in the direction of Shirley.

Shirley was still wearing her favorite dress. She was squatting on the ground and buckling the straps of her sandals. She noticed the glances from the side and raised her head: “What’s wrong, Nina?” Nina laughed

. : “Have you decided where to go?”

Although they were so shocked when they tasted the “local specialties” that the two girls even had the urge to go back to the ship, in the end Nina and Xue Li still hasn’t turned this impulse into practice.

This is a rare trip to shore during a long sea voyage, and after all, it cannot be wasted.

“I don’t know where to go.” Shirley stood up and patted the dust on her skirt. “Didn’t the elf uncle recommend that there is a market two blocks away? Just go there – anyway I don’t want to go to the so-called ‘food court’.”

Nina nodded, and then glanced at the small bag on the other person’s waist: “Have you brought mosquito repellent? There are many more mosquitoes in this city than in Praland. .”

“Well,” Shirley patted the small bag on her waist, “Agou reminded me.”

Nina showed a bright smile: “Okay, let’s go~”

The two girls walked down the door. But at this moment, the door behind them suddenly heard the sound of the door lock opening and the door shaft turning.

Shirley was startled for a moment, and when she turned around, she saw a tall and majestic figure standing at the door, and she suddenly became nervous.

“I…we want to go out for a walk…” Before Duncan could say anything, Shirley had already spoken in a panic, “I’ve already told Mr. Morris…” “

We won’t go far,” Nina said Smiling brightly, “Just go to the nearby market.”

“I know.” Duncan just nodded lightly, and then walked up to the two girls, his eyes falling on Shirley.

The latter shrank her neck almost reflexively, and held it in for several seconds before speaking cautiously: “I…or I won’t go…” “Take it.”

Duncan interrupted her, and then handed over a few pictures. banknote.

Shirley stared blankly at the banknotes that had been delivered to her, unable to react for a moment.

“Aren’t you going to go to the market?” Duncan’s voice woke her up from her daze. “This is today’s pocket money – don’t spend it all at once. Nina has already given you.”

Shirley was still stunned. It wasn’t until Agou’s reminder came in her mind that she suddenly reacted and hesitantly took the banknotes, which were actually not that big in denomination, and then turned her face, as if to deflect the embarrassment. He muttered as if: “I thought you were going to take me back to do my homework…”

Duncan didn’t care about the other party’s reaction. He looked at the two girls in front of him and casually reminded: “Don’t come back too late, try not to come back too late.” If you go to another city, call me if you get lost, and I will send Aiyi to pick you up…”

“Hey, I know,” Nina waved her hands repeatedly. Although her tone sounded impatient, the smile on her face remained the same as before. It was very bright, and then she came over and took Shirley’s arm, dragging her towards the intersection, “Then let’s go! We’ll be back before evening!”

Shirley was dragged over in a daze, In the middle, he looked back at Duncan and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end nothing came out. He just suddenly smiled and waved in this direction while being pulled away by Nina.

Duncan watched the two girls disappear at the opposite intersection. After another moment, his eyes returned and fell on the open space not far away: “Back from the city hall?” As his words fell,

that Lucretia’s figure suddenly appeared in the empty clearing – like a mirage turning into reality, she walked out of the phantom with a little surprise on her face: “So you have discovered me? Duncan

nodded: “I saw it from the beginning.”

Lucretia turned back and looked at the direction where Nina and Shirley left just now.

At this moment, the expression on her face suddenly changed in a complicated way, and there seemed to be many thoughts floating in the depths of her eyes – perhaps mixed with past memories, perhaps mixed with inexplicable emotions, but in the end, she restrained herself After all the changes in his eyes, when he turned to look at Duncan, there was only a faint smile on his face.

For some reason, Duncan suddenly felt that the “witch”‘s mood suddenly improved – very, very good.

“Talan El has left?” Lucretia suddenly asked.

“He left half an hour ago. He said he couldn’t worry about his research laboratory.” Duncan nodded, and then asked, “What did you talk about with the consul at the city hall?” “The church sent a notice to every city-state

. , the warning you sent to the world is now beginning to have an effect…”
