Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 162

[Chapter 162 Another Connection]

In the eyes of the owner of the “Rose Doll House”, the most outstanding puppeteer in the world is a human named Lucrezia Abnomar, who is the famous “Duncan” Captain’s daughter.

As soon as the old lady uttered these words, the entire store was silent for several seconds, and then finally Duncan’s earth-shattering cough came: “Ahem, ahem…”

“Customer, are you okay?” This reaction took me by surprise, just like every elf who has been dealing with short-lived races for a long time, her face instantly showed an expression of worrying about the sudden death of the human in front of her, “Do you need to ask a doctor for help?” “

Ahem …I…cough, I’m fine,” Duncan finally stopped coughing, but it took a while before he waved to the old lady in front of him—because at the same time, he had to comfort her on the Lost Country. The cursed doll who was suddenly frightened by himself, “It was suddenly choked by saliva. What did you say just now? Lucrezi…”

“Lucrecia Abnomar, the hostess of the Bright Star , one of Captain Duncan’s sons and daughters,” said the owner with a look of “this is what happened in recent years, why are you humans so easy to make a fuss”, “the most outstanding puppeteer in the world…”

Duncan It was hard to catch my breath here, but when I heard the old lady’s words, I choked another mouthful of saliva into the leaves of my lungs: “Poof—” At the same time,

on the deck of the Lost Country, the man who had just been startled by Duncan’s violent cough Alice was taken aback by the other party’s “Fuck” again, and the puppet lady who was holding a large basket of vegetables and fruits stared dumbfounded at the captain who was behaving strangely today for some reason: “Are you all right?” “I’m all right

, “Duncan took a breath and calmed down a little bit. After practicing for this period of time, he finally managed to control the two bodies proficiently, but at this time he almost became flustered again. In order to prevent the city-state from acting too It was weird, so he could only wave his hand to the puppet in front of him, “Go to the cabin first, I have something to deal with.”

“Are you really okay?” Alice still looked at this side suspiciously, Duncan’s face was reflected in her lavender eyes, “Do you want me to check your body, tap your back for smoothness or something…”

“Would you do it?”

“No.”

“Go, go!”

“Oh.”

Finally, the Hanhan doll was sent away, and Duncan quickly focused his attention on the city-state of Purand, raising his eyes , looked at the slightly fat old elf lady in front of her very seriously: “That famous Captain Duncan… is the legendary Ship Lost…” “Shhh, don’t say that name casually

!” The chief hurriedly interrupted Duncan, “An ordinary person like you doesn’t know that if you read the name of such a terrible and cursed name casually, you will be in bad luck! Be careful and turn around and that ship will go to your dream!” “…

you That’s right,” Duncan choked, trying to suppress the strange feeling in his heart and nodded, “That captain… not only has a daughter named Lucrecia, but also has both children?” “Yes, one

hundred Years ago, I had seen them both. Their son was Tirian Abnomar. Later, he became a general with the Queen of Frost, but Frost seemed to rebel after a short time. The boy has attracted a group of people to become pirates, and his daughter is Lucrezia Abnomar, the most outstanding puppeteer…”

The old lady babbled, finally paused, and sighed again: “However, this happened many years ago, at least for human beings… Few people in Puland mention their matter anymore, even in the city-state of the elves, everyone dare not discuss it casually Something related to that ship, but what is it actually? The brother and sister are not crazy like their father, and they are still serving as the captain…” “Wait a minute!” Duncan immediately stared

, “You said they are still alive?!”

“Alive, it is said that they are cursed by the subspace, and they can live forever,” the old lady sighed, “I guess they can live longer than me…”

Duncan: “…”

“Guest, are you really okay?” The old lady of the shop owner finally couldn’t help asking again, “I see that your complexion has not been right since just now, do you not like this topic? It’s normal, most human beings don’t seem to I really like to hear what I say, and I dare not listen to it in broad daylight…”

“I dare to listen, I dare to listen,” Duncan immediately reacted when he heard this, and quickly adjusted his expression and sitting posture, almost staring at the person in front of him with burning eyes. Shopkeeper, “Can you tell me a little more about the two brothers and sisters? And you just said…you met them?” “

A century ago,” the old woman said slowly with a tone of reminiscence “At that time, I opened a shop on this street, and my brother and sister came to buy things from me. Lucrezia bought a three-point doll, and Tirian paid for it. They were young at that time, and their father… He is still a normal human being, oh, if you don’t mention him, you can’t mention him.

” Then, more than ten years later, I met Lucrezia alone on the way to Lensa to communicate with colleagues. At that time, she She has become an outstanding puppeteer and mechanism master… The puppet driven by her clockwork is something that even I can’t make…” The

shopkeeper started talking again, talking about things that are very important to most people. For humans, it is already considered history, but for her, it is just a story of life memories.

It seems that no matter what race, elderly people like to talk about it while recalling it. As long as someone starts it, such a topic will always be said Endless.

Duncan’s turbulent mood still hasn’t calmed down, but his expression has calmed down. He listened to every word the old woman said, and took the shocking information into his mind word by word. .For

ordinary people in the city-state, the cursed captain and his cursed sons and daughters a century ago can only be a distant story, but to an elf who has lived here for centuries, many so-called ” Mythin” was only what she had seen and heard in her early years-she said a lot about Lucrecia, and mentioned a few things about Tirian and his “Sea Mist”. But she said nothing about

Tirian and ” The understanding of the “Sea Fog” is obviously not as good as that of Lucrecia.

“Tirion Abunomare’s allegiance to the Frost Queen was half a century ago, not too far from now, and some older humans have heard of it,” the shopkeeper casually said. He said, “But that’s just what I’ve heard. A few decades ago, the city-states on the Lengliehai side were relatively closed, and the dealings with Prand were limited…”

Duncan felt his heart pounding. Who is the Frost Queen? There is even a one-to-one Frost Queen doll jumping up and down in his home, but he never imagined that the queen who was executed by the rebels half a century ago would still be with him in this way. Established another connection – through an “eldest son” whose existence he himself only just knew.

“The Frost Rebellion half a century ago…” he pondered over his words, trying to act like an ordinary gossip guest, “I read it in history books, but it was unclear It’s clear…”

“That matter was originally unclear,” the shopkeeper waved his hand, “It is said that it has something to do with ‘that ship’, who dares to record it clearly?” “

Tirion Ai Did Bunomar lead his team to become pirates after the Frost Rebellion?” Duncan asked again, “Is he still active in the Cold Sea?” “It seems to be,” the shopkeeper recalled, “Anyway,

twenty I heard this from a compatriot who ran a business at sea many years ago.” “

Then…do the brothers and sisters Tirian and Lucrecia still have contact?”

“How do I know?” The shopkeeper posed Waving his hand, “I’m just an ordinary old lady who runs a shop on the streets of Puland. At most, I met them once in the early years, and then happened to remember a little more than you humans. How can I know everything?” “This

… …That’s true.”

Duncan smacked his lips, realizing that his concern about this matter seemed a bit too much, so he wisely didn’t ask further.

But the old woman opposite him seemed to suddenly remember something at this time, and stood up from behind the counter: “Ah, yes, speaking of Lucrezia, I suddenly remembered something that has been kept with me for many years. I wonder if you are interested as a guest?”

While talking, the shopkeeper walked towards a low door at the corner of the stairs, opened the door, and rummaged through the storage room inside. After fiddling for an unknown amount of time, he found a half-meter-long lock from the deepest part of the storage room. Long box, put it on the counter.

“This is…” Duncan looked at what the other party brought out suspiciously.

“A doll,” the old woman smiled kindly, and carefully opened the lid of the box. “Her name is Nilu—remember what I just said? Many years ago, Lucrezia and her brother had I bought a doll from my store, but that doll is actually one of a pair of sisters. The one she took away was the elder sister named ‘Luni’, and the rest here is named ‘Nilu’ .”
