Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 634
[Chapter 631 Academy Ark]
There are countless threads there, emerging from the sea like clumps of hair, floating in the air without weight – and they are still increasing, more and more.
Alice’s eyes widened, looking at this scene in confusion and astonishment, and then, there was a flash of green fire in her eyes – the same fire flashed in Duncan’s eyes, so only the puppet The visible “line” also appeared in front of Duncan’s eyes.
“Are these…people from Qingfeng Port?” Alice was stunned for a long time, and finally broke the silence by muttering, “They are gone, but the thread is still there?”
Duncan did not speak, he just looked at it with a solemn expression. Looking at the densely packed thin lines floating in the air, although he could not confirm it visually at once, he could vaguely feel that there were too many “threads” – even if five lines could be extended from one person, they represented The number far exceeds the population of elves in Qingfeng Port. It is as if…the soul threads of elves from all over the world are gathered here.
The huge number makes these continuous lines look hazy. They flutter slightly in the wind amorphously, like a lingering mist hanging over the sea area of Qingfeng Port, with a dreamlike feeling. So… wonderful.
And the creepy weirdness.
At this time, Alice had recovered from the initial fright. She curiously observed the threads on the sea, like a cat seeing countless yarn balls, showing her uncontrollable but hesitant expression. She still remembered what the captain usually told her, so she carefully put her hands away, trying not to touch any of the threads around her, but her eyes kept darting around all the time, wanting to grab it but not daring to.
Of course, this couldn’t be hidden from Duncan’s eyes.
“Captain, I’m just going to touch them a little bit, I won’t scratch them… I want to see their ‘condition’…” Noticing Duncan’s gaze, Alice immediately said cautiously and stretched out her hand to make a small gesture. , to show that “a little touch” is really a “little touch”.
Duncan nodded silently, while carefully paying attention to the movements of the puppet’s hands.
Of course he trusted Alice – but he didn’t quite trust Alice’s reliability.
The doll received permission and immediately looked happy. Then he carefully stretched out his hand and touched the invisible thread closest to him.
The next second, she let out a low exclamation and quickly let go of the thread.
Duncan immediately asked about the situation: “What’s wrong?”
“…Strange thing.” Alice looked at the thread blankly and murmured in confusion.
Duncan frowned when he heard this: “Strange thing?”
“I don’t know what it is, but it is different from the ‘threads’ I have come into contact with before,” Alice said hesitantly, as if trying to think of herself The feeling is transformed into words, “I feel a… very, very huge thing, hidden at the other end of the line, but that thing is vague and seems to be constantly changing… “
As she spoke, she raised her hand and pointed to the deepest part of the yarn-like mist.
“It seems to be hidden in there, but I can’t see it.”
Duncan frowned and looked at the hazy “white mist”. He didn’t see the “strange thing” Alice described, but he knew What is that “weird thing”?
Silantis has begun to gradually condense a mental entity into the racial consciousness of the elves.
After a slight hesitation, he reached out to a hazy thread in his field of vision and touched it cautiously.
He felt nothing – but that wasn’t surprising.
After all, his ability to “see” invisible threads at this moment was only “borrowed” from Alice through the connection of flames, and of course he would not be so handy when using it.
“Goat Head,” after a slight hesitation, Duncan called from the bottom of his heart, “Can you feel anything?” “
No,” the voice of Goat Head came immediately, sounding a little confused and panicked, “I’m sorry. Captain, I…”
“It doesn’t matter, this is not your fault.”
Duncan interrupted the goat head. At the same time, he stepped to the edge of the deck and stretched out his hand outside the side of the ship.
A green spiritual fire condensed in his hand, and then fell into the sea like water. The flame spread silently on the sea, and flowed towards the floating invisible lines.
However, the next second, the flame passed through every invisible thread, and Duncan did not feel any “feedback” coming from him, as if… those threads were in a completely undisturbed dimension.
Duncan frowned and watched this scene, but he was not too surprised. He just muttered thoughtfully: “…It seems that it is not that easy after all.”
At this moment, a melodious whistle came from the distant sea. His thoughts were suddenly interrupted.
Duncan immediately looked in the direction from which the voice came.
He saw a towering silhouette emerging on the distant sea accompanied by the sound of a whistle. It was as if a curtain suddenly opened between the sky and the sea. The behemoth that looked to be the size of a quarter of a city-state was there. It “popped” out of thin air and moved this way, slowing down.
Then, he gradually saw the appearance of the behemoth – its edge was as steep as a cliff, high white walls surrounded its base, and buildings of varying heights were located on the high ground within the walls, among which It can be seen that the bell towers, spires and high buildings, those buildings with white exterior walls and blue roofs do not have much religious atmosphere. Instead, people can’t help but think of the famous city-state university in the center of Qingfeng Port City-the two are similar in style. Vaguely the same.
And around the behemoth, Duncan saw the silhouettes of other ships – all of them were cutting-edge and advanced main warships, but in front of the huge Ark ship, their silhouettes were particularly inconspicuous. Duncan had just At first I almost ignored them.
At this moment, another burst of white mist rose from the sky above the huge “mobile city”. The top of the college building it carried on its back spewed out a huge stream of steam, followed by a melodious whistle. Across the distant sea, it reached Duncan’s ears again.
The second whistle was a signal of some kind, vaguely friendly.
Duncan has already realized what it is –
it is the “Pilgrimage Ark” of the Academy of Truth and its escort fleet!
He had seen the Deep Sea Church’s patrol ark before, and was deeply impressed by the huge “mobile city”. He knew that the Four Gods Church had its own giant ark, and the size of all the arks was almost the same—— The behemoth that appeared on the sea in the distance was comparable in size to the “Storm Cathedral Ark” he had seen in Purland, and the architectural style of the upper floors of the ark revealed its ownership.
“Captain!!” The goat-headed voice suddenly came to mind, interrupting Duncan’s thinking. There was obvious surprise and a hint of nervousness in the first mate’s voice, “It’s the church’s patrol ark!” “I saw it
. ,” Duncan replied calmly, “Why are you so panicked?”
“That’s the church’s patrol ark!” The goat head obviously didn’t understand why the captain could be so calm, “That thing is hard to deal with – that thing is really It is directly protected by the gods…”
“Why should I deal with it?” Duncan replied casually, “I didn’t start a war with the Four Gods Church.” The
goat-headed voice still sounded very panicked: “But Qingfeng Harbor is gone. Ah! Such a big Qingfeng Port is gone now!”
Duncan felt confused: “I didn’t destroy it.”
Goat Head: “…”
The poor first mate seemed to be suddenly stuck logically. Not knowing how to continue speaking, there was only a burst of chaotic thoughts with unknown meaning. Duncan ignored this guy, just turned and walked to the bridge on the stern deck, and personally took over the Lost Home.
The huge ghost ship came to life in an instant, and the sail of the spirit body quickly filled up out of thin air. Then the huge sail warship turned with an incredible dexterity and sailed straight towards the small city-state on the distant sea. “Pilgrimage to the Ark”.
Duncan didn’t hesitate at all.
The goat head was startled by the captain’s unhesitating move: “Captain?”
“Go over to say hello and share the situation. They obviously didn’t pass by here – it should have been a distress signal from Qingfeng Port. Here comes the Pilgrimage Ark of the Academy of Truth,” Duncan said casually as he controlled the Homeless Ship to move forward. “I know what you are nervous about. The Homeless Ship has indeed had some unpleasant experiences with the four major churches in the past century, but you have to Look at the problem from a development perspective.
“We have had a lot of dealings with several city-states and churches. I personally think that this kind of active and positive communication is very effective – remember what Lucretia mentioned before situation? The Four Gods Church issued a notice to the city-states, ordering each city and church to actively cooperate with the actions of the Lost Home Fleet. This shows that they have realized the enthusiasm of the Lost Home Fleet to protect the civilized world…” The goat head was stunned by Duncan’s words
. He was stunned, but he quickly reacted and reminded with concern: “Then…what if? We have not dealt directly with the patrolling ark of the Academy of Truth, and the situation in Qingfeng Port is still the same. The fleet’s intention is unknown, so we just get close to it, in case there is a misunderstanding…” Duncan did not speak, just
smiled He shook his head.
The spiritual fire burned on his body, making his body as illusory and transparent as cast by light. The Lost Home sailed through the waves in the “mist” intertwined by countless “silk threads”, heading towards the distant land. The Academy Ark, and under the undulating sea surface, is the hazy and illusory reflection of the Lost Home – that reflection is gradually being wrapped in the green flames, and the strands of flames are flowing and spreading in the fine waves like water. , causing the entire sea area to gradually be filled with a layer of green fire.
“If there is no misunderstanding, then there is no misunderstanding. If there is a misunderstanding, then it is not a misunderstanding – so in short, there will be no misunderstanding.” ”
