Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 132
[Chapter 132 Breaking free from the dream]
Duncan looked at the nervous Agou and smiled as kindly as possible—he felt that there might be a little misunderstanding between himself and the other party, and it is better to resolve this misunderstanding as soon as possible.
But just before he was about to speak, he suddenly saw the blood in Agou’s eye sockets flickering—even though he couldn’t see any emotional changes from a bone head, he seemed to feel the fierce and turbulent moment of this deep hound Feeling.
The next second, he heard Agou’s stammering voice: “You…you are the ‘Mr. Duncan’ we have been dealing with these two days?”
Duncan was taken aback, and then glanced at Shirley next to him .
He didn’t see any communication between Agou and Shirley, but it was clear that there was a convenient means of information sharing between these two individuals linked together by chains.
“It’s me,” Duncan said with a gentle smile, “Do you need me to explain something? Or do you want to know anything?” “No!” Agou almost screamed, his whole body
trembling Back off, “We don’t need to know any ‘knowledge’ or ‘truth’, we have no intention of prying into your mysteries!” “…I
always feel that there is still some misunderstanding between me and you, but it seems to be more and more explained I don’t know,” Duncan sighed and shook his head helplessly, “Forget it, let time slowly help us build mutual trust. As for now, I have something to understand.” Agou drooped his head
: “You… please tell me.”
Duncan frowned. He was actually very curious as to why this ghost captain, who was famous in the real world, had such a great influence among Youyou demons, because in his impression, Youyou The deep sea is a “place” that is very close to the subspace, and the demons entrenched in the deep depths should be closer to the “underlying shadows” than the mortals in the real world. Fear and resistance are right.
However, now it seems that those demons who are “dangerous” to humans are as afraid of the Homeless as humans, which makes him quite puzzled.
However, before he figured out this problem, he first focused on the “nightmare” scene in front of him-this came from the depths of Shirley’s memory, and it was very likely that the nightmare of the truth eleven years ago had reappeared.
“I want to know about this dream,” he said, his eyes falling on Shirley. “I know this is a very painful memory for you. If you don’t want to talk about it, you can refuse.” “
… There’s nothing I don’t want to say,” Shirley just shook her head lightly, “I should thank you, you interrupted this nightmare, and I can suffer less… As you can see, this is what I did back then. What I have experienced.”
“Is it a big fire…” Duncan nodded slightly, and then looked at Agou again, “What I saw was the first ‘meeting’ between you and Shirley?”
Agou turned away Face to face: “I was just a ghost demon at that time.”
“Then how did you suddenly get the ‘heart’?” Duncan asked curiously, “From what I saw just now, you almost killed Shirley back then. “
…I don’t know,” Agou was silent for a few seconds, shaking his ugly head slightly, “When I first became conscious of myself, what I saw was Shirley lying on the ground dying. It’s a sight.”
Duncan took a deep look at the deep hound, and then moved his eyes along the chain on the other’s neck, and saw Shirley’s dark, twisted half body that fused with the chain.
“After that, you… merged together?”
“I guess,” Shirley whispered, she lowered her head, hiding her eyes and expressions in the shadow of her hair, “Actually, I don’t remember It’s too clear, after all, I was only six years old at that time, and I lived in a daze for a long time after that… If you are really curious about how I slowly became the relationship I am with a deep demon who almost killed me, Then you can grab a psychiatrist and hypnotize me, maybe…”
“No need.”
Xue Li’s words were suddenly interrupted, and immediately afterwards, she felt a big hand pressing on the top of her head in astonishment.
That palm turned out to be warm.
“Sorry, I don’t want to reveal your scars, I just want to know the details of eleven years ago,” Duncan gently pressed the girl’s hair, he knew that his question was very important to Shirley, who had just escaped from the nightmare. The words were not very pleasant, “You should know that not only the sun shards appeared in the incident eleven years ago, but also countless cultists were active, and the deep hound… Theoretically, it should be the summoning object of the oblivion sect.”
Shirley raised her head in a daze, and she heard Duncan continue to say: “A demonic creature from the deep sea suddenly acquires human nature, which itself is a kind of ‘mutation’, have you ever thought that this kind of mutation may also be Affected by a certain inducement back then?”
Shirley blinked, and said a little dullly: “Sun Fragment?”
“I’m not sure… No one knows what form the Sun Fragment is, or what power it has. In the teachings propagated by the believers, the ‘true sun god’ has no ‘humanity’ or similar authority at all,” Duncan shook his head, “so what caused Agou to appear human may be other than sun fragments… …something.”
“You mean, there may be more than sun fragments that appeared in the city-state of Purdue eleven years ago?!” Shirley finally woke up, her eyes suddenly widened.
“Just a little doubt,” Duncan patted Shirley on the shoulder lightly, and then withdrew his hand, “because I always feel that there is a big contradiction in this matter: the sun shards point to the ‘sacred objects’ of the Sun Cultists. ‘, according to the descriptions of those cultists, its power is actually very simple, and it is only related to the “real sun god” in mysticism. However, in the chaos eleven years ago, only the officially disclosed documents were arrested The cultists arrested already include the Annihilation Cultist and the Final Evangelist, guys who have nothing to do with the “real Sun God” at all… What are they doing?
“Of course, it can also be explained that the sun fragments are so powerful that even people who don’t believe in the sun god are affected, making them go crazy on the same day, but this can’t explain why there are such weird things like Agou. The…’phenomenon’—a demon with frenzied attributes, but suddenly gained sanity during the incident, what is going on? “
Even extending, there are many suspicious things, including but not limited to The curtain shrouded in the ‘fire’, the memories left in your and Nina’s minds, the strange phenomenon in the sixth block… We have always attributed all these things that are wrong to the sun fragments, but now that we think about it, this is really true. Are they all the power of the ‘Sun Domain’? The so-called true sun god is too omnipotent. “
Duncan expressed the doubts in his heart, and some of the doubts actually arose before today. It was only after seeing the change of Agou eleven years ago that he became more firm in his doubts. The fire eleven years ago may have been caused by sun
debris, but there must be something else that played a role in the whole incident!
Shirley is still a little dazed, she is actually not very good at thinking about these complicated things, While in a daze, she heard Agou’s voice rang in her mind: “Xue Li, are you okay? Was he releasing a curse by touching your head just now? Are you sane? You…”
“I’m fine,” Shirley replied in her mind, dumbfounded, “Agou, you are too nervous. “
“Nonsense, can I not be nervous!” You have directly come into contact with pollution sources that are enough to drive ordinary people crazy instantly! “Agou’s voice panicked, “Then how do you feel?” Shirley
thought for a while, and touched the top of her head uncertainly.
In her memory, the last time someone stroked her hair like this and comforted herself softly like a child was many, many years ago Something happened.
“…It’s warm. She
spoke softly in a trance.
Agou was startled: “Xue Li, is your brain really out of order?”
“…you shut up! ” “
Duncan didn’t know what Agou and Xueli had exchanged in this short moment, he just looked thoughtfully at the window that was filled with dim red light, and suddenly asked, “What’s outside?
” Li was taken aback: “Huh?”
Duncan raised his hand and pointed to the window: “What’s outside the room?”
“I…don’t know,” Shirley blinked, suddenly realizing that in this nightmare that kept haunting her, At this moment, it seemed that an impossible option suddenly appeared, “I have never considered this problem, every time I dream, I am trapped in this room…” “But now you broke free,” Duncan
walked At the door of the hut, he turned his head and said softly, those words were like a temptation in the dark, throwing an unprecedented choice in front of Shirley and Agou, “Would you like to try it, when you are awake… to see your dreams What does the edge look like?”
