Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 167
During this period of time, Duncan wrote down the known information one by one on paper, and connected them with lines according to the degree of connection. Among these clues, Nina and Shirley’s dialogue The memory of the fire, and their apparently alienated “dreams”.
And after listing all the clues, Duncan added another line at the end of the chart. He frowned and fell into thought, and wrote a few words in his thoughts-first, in this world, everyone except
Asia Outside of space, everything can be “polluted”.
Second, the reality of this world is built on an unstable foundation, space is unstable, time is unstable, and even reality is not necessarily as unshakable as people perceive.
Third, the forces of the warp have invaded Prand! The vision in the small church in the sixth block is the evidence—the sun fragment eleven years ago is probably not the most critical link in the whole incident at all. From the perspective of personality…the subspace is more likely to contribute to Prand’s current situation. The exception!
Duncan put down the pen in his hand, and looked at the three items he had written—these three items were not clues, but “premises” and “conclusions” that had a great relationship with Prand’s current situation.
His eyes fell on the first one, the shortest one, which was the basis of everything, and the “inspiration” for this one came from a sentence he overheard when he went to the City State Bank to open an account.
Thoughtful, he picked up the pen next to him and drew a line from this content, which connected to one of the above clues—the church in the Sixth Street Block that was locked in time and space.
The pollution starts from the church. Its appearance is the superposition of space-time disorder and different “world lines”. The pollution level is quite high. Visually, even the Storm Goddess’ monitoring of reality has been affected… So what is this pollution like? How is it achieved? The polluted…is it really just the church itself?
He remembered what he had said when he said goodbye to Shirley—this matter should be a big deal, but it is not enough for ordinary citizens to report it.
While thinking about it, Duncan showed a smile on his face, then turned his head and looked at the pigeons who were pacing up and down on the window sill.
The pigeon stopped immediately and stared straight at Duncan: “It’s murderous!”
Duncan ignored it at all and snapped his fingers.
A cluster of dark green flames spewed out from the compass on Aiyi’s chest. The compass opened and the pointer rotated. The boundary between reality and illusion instantly became blurred. Duncan had already entered the state of walking in the spirit world with a flash of his eyes. The dark and chaotic space and the billions of stars filling the space appeared in the eyes.
He stood still in the depths of the darkness, took a light breath to calm himself down, and then followed a subtle perception, moving closer to a little starlight not far away.
He came to the side of the starlight, and without actually touching it, he could already clearly perceive the mind of the young judge—the opposite of this cluster of starlight was Vanna’s mind.
Compared with the first time he discovered this starlight, Duncan could clearly feel that the connection between himself and Fanna had become much stronger-the last time she and Heidi visited the antique shop, the connection between them was strengthened, And those strengthened connections can now come in handy.
Duncan turned his head and looked at the darkness beside him. Ai in spirit form was circling in mid-air boredly. When he noticed the “Master”‘s sight, the bird immediately moved closer: “Who is calling the fleet?” “
Remember How did we connect Xueli’s mind last time?”
Ai Yi thought for a while, then tilted his head: “We need to pay more!”
“This time it will indeed be a little more difficult. After all, the other party is a devout saint, and his mind should be stronger than Xueli Li is firm, and may attract the attention of the Storm Goddess,” Duncan nodded lightly, but still stretched out his fingers slowly, and approached the cluster of stars a little bit, “But now the connection between me and Fanna has been obtained. Reinforcement, if there is only a shallow communication without any damage, it should not be a big problem.
” After all, this is just a righteous complaint from an enthusiastic captain. “
The next second, his fingertips touched the starlight.
Layers upon layers of illusory ocean waves sounded as if they came from a boundless and distant place, but they were fleeting. Before Duncan even noticed the existence of the ocean waves, he felt that he had established contact with a mind.
…
Fan Na rubbed her eyes, lowered her head, and saw that she was holding a thick file in her hand, she raised her head again, and saw that she was sitting in the room, in front of her was her dressing table, the top of the dressing table In the mirror, his slightly tired face was reflected.
A momentary trance rose from the bottom of her heart, but soon she shook her head, recalling what she was doing.
She was continuing to investigate the heretical worship materials of the Puland city-state before 1889. After leaving the archives, she borrowed some documents from the old priest who was in charge of the care and did not have time to check them carefully. back home.
When she was in the archives, she and the old priest discovered the anomalous phenomenon of missing documents in 1885, but in the end they were unable to find those missing documents. This unusual incident aroused her vigilance. As a judge who specializes in investigating heresy, this matter will become one of the focuses of her next investigation.
Arrange for civilian priests to read the files in several other archives of the city-state, go to the city hall to extract the security report of the corresponding year, arrange for the guard team to visit and monitor the places where heresy worship occurred in that year, and report to Bishop Valentine Discuss to see if I can get further instructions from the goddess…
Fanna already has a rough follow-up arrangement in mind, and before this series of actions starts, she must first complete the analysis of all heresy worship incidents between 1886 and 1889 summary.
She glanced at the sky outside, and saw the creation of the world hanging high in the night sky, and the pale glow spread across the city-state.
She lowered her head again, and saw that the thick file in her hand had just been flipped through halfway through. Perhaps the reading time was too long and her eyes were tired, so the text on it seemed a bit blurry.
Wait, no!
Fan Na suddenly came to her senses, and then suddenly closed the file in her hand, and turned her head to look out the window.
Now it is midnight, the moment when the creation of the world has the strongest influence—reading books at this time is an extremely dangerous behavior, and even specially trained treasurers will avoid reading any text within one hour of midnight, not to mention, What she is holding in front of her is a very dangerous historical document borrowed from the archives!
Professional priests will not make this kind of mistake… This is not reality, it is their own dream, a dream that is being affected!
Fan Na’s eyes flickered, and the moment she realized that her dream had been invaded, she began to look for the intruder’s trace in the surrounding environment, and in the next second, she saw the existence of the intruder – on the dressing table in front of
her , in the elliptical vanity mirror surrounded by patterns, a gloomy and majestic man was standing quietly in the darkness, and an illusory green flame was quietly burning on the edge of the mirror.
The figure looked at Fan Na calmly through the mirror, and only after seeing Fan Na looked up did he show a faint smile, and a low voice came from the mirror: “Ye An, Fan Na, it’s the first time we met—but I have already I have been watching you for a long time, you can call me…”
“Captain Duncan!” Before the words in the mirror fell, Fan Na suddenly realized, and immediately the well-trained judge jumped two meters At the same time, she kicked away the round stool that was in the way, and just as soon as she landed, she forced her concentration again, and out of thin air, she drew out her giant sword that she never left her body in the air, and swung it directly into a jumping chop. !
Duncan: “…?!”
With a loud noise, the entire dressing table was shattered, and the mirror was directly smashed into fragments by the huge force. Duncan’s phantom turned into scattered lights and shadows before Fanna’s eyes.
Fine shards of glass fell to the ground, and Fan Na clenched the giant sword in her hand, looking around like a lioness in a battle state. At the same time, she began to pray in a low voice, and tried to use The mental self-control skills trained on weekdays are used to break free from this polluted dream and force myself to wake up.
However, just when she felt that she was about to touch the real world, the deep and majestic voice sounded again——into her ears repeatedly:
“Your reaction surprised me.”
Fan Na’s eyes widened suddenly. She looked in the direction where the voice came from, but what she saw were the shards of vanity mirrors scattered all over the room.
On the surface of each fragment, illusory flames began to rise quietly, and inside each fragment, there was a Captain Duncan standing quietly in the darkness.
This legendary terror, the mobile natural disaster on the boundless sea, is looking helplessly at Fanna who is fully alert.
“Relax, kid, I just want to talk to you about something,” came the voices of thousands of Captain Duncan, shaking Fanna’s will, “It’s about Prand…” “Is it a mirror…”
This A young judge suddenly whispered to himself.
Duncan: “Huh?”
Fan Na didn’t answer, but suddenly dropped the tip of the giant sword obliquely to the ground, and then punched the sword suddenly!
A loud bang exploded, and the powerful impact turned into controlled sound waves, which reverberated wantonly in the room. In the next second, all the smooth mirrors in the room were turned into powder, and there was no mirror left behind!
The room fell silent, Fan Na exhaled lightly, and slowly stood up straight.
She saw Captain Duncan standing quietly in front of her.
No matter how she blinked or moved her eyes, Captain Duncan stood quietly in the center of her vision, watching her eyes.
“You’re not quite right. It’s not the mirror, but everything that is as smooth as a mirror.” Captain Ghost’s gloomy and majestic voice came directly into her mind. “Now, I am in your lens.” (End of this chapter
