Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 50

[Chapter 50 Two Approaching Dark Clouds]

The gods live in the kingdom of God far away from the real world. The world believes that that special dimension is the cornerstone of the world. Unlike common sense, this “cornerstone” is not located at the bottom of the world, but at the bottom of the world. vertices in all dimensions.

The ancient Kingdom of Crete described the structure of the world they knew in the remaining classics: the

cornerstone of the world is at the top, guarded by eternal truth and order, and the Kingdom of God is in the cornerstone, which exists forever

; Downward from the country is the reality where all living beings live. All living beings in this world can enjoy the afterglow of order in this layer and can survive in a relatively stable and rich real world; downward from reality is the spiritual

world that gradually deviates from mortal cognition. Among them, the blessings of the gods have been thinned out, and twisted and grotesque forces have begun to gain the upper hand;

from the spiritual world down, there is a deep sea that is no longer suitable for living creatures and is dominated by strange forces, which can no longer be counted as the material world. It is more like a reflection of nothingness;

beyond the deep sea, it is the bottom of the world—the depth of the subspace where the shadows of all things are entrenched, and the bodies of extremely dangerous ancient gods and all kinds of sinister things are entrenched in the subspace middle.

In the records of the ancient Kingdom of Crete, the gods made a contract in the cornerstone. This contract is the source and yardstick of all the laws in the world. , and as the “depth” continues to decline, the power of order will begin to weaken, and will gradually be dominated by the subspace—the “cornerstone” where the gods live and the subspace are like the upper and lower endpoints of the world. ” then flows in one direction between these two endpoints.

This is an ancient gift left to the world by the brilliant civilization that pioneered the deep-sea era 10,000 years ago. In the long years, countless scholars have studied this “hierarchical structure” exhaustively, but they have not found this model. Now, it has become the “world standard model” recognized by the world.

In this standard model, mortals in the world will fall into a deeper place, but few people can return to the “shallow layer” from the “deep layer”. It has never been heard that any existence against the sky can reach the “cornerstone” dimension where the gods are located from reality.

It is precisely because of this that the Lost Homeland, which returned to reality from the subspace, became the most outrageous vision in the world—its return flight violated the world’s perception of the standard model of the world.

But on the other hand, the existence of the Lost Country is in line with the classic statement about anomalies and visions: the law of permanent misalignment of anomalies and visions.

But no matter what, Bishop Valentine and Vanna didn’t think that Captain Ghost had the ability to avenge the Storm Goddess—even if he had the heart, he couldn’t do such a thing.

Because the “cornerstone” is not continuous with the real world, it is not like the relationship between reality and the spiritual world, and the spiritual world and the deep sea, where there is a relationship of continuous falling and material intercommunication. So far, no scholar has found the “cornerstone” and reality. Evidence that the world can be directly connected, and even the gods can only indirectly lower their influence through methods such as projections and metaphors. How can a ghost ship… how can it counterattack the kingdom of the gods?

Since it is impossible to seek revenge from the Goddess of Storms herself, the only remaining option is of course the Goddess’ followers in the world.

The Cathedral of Storms, the headquarters of the Church of the Deep Sea, is a “Pilgrimage Ark” that sails hiddenly on the boundless sea. It comes and goes without a trace. The Pope who sits on the ark has the power to control the storm on behalf of the Lord, so it is not a good start. Target.

Then the Puland city-state, which is fixed on the sea, has obvious goals, and is open to the outside world, is naturally a better choice: 80% of the people in this city-state are believers of the Goddess of Storms.

Vanna has already determined that the ghost captain came for revenge—after all, the Lost Homeland crashed into the subspace in a storm a hundred years ago, and she couldn’t think of any other reason to explain why it disappeared After so many years, the Lost Homeland will suddenly return to the real world, and point the finger at the city-state of Prand.

But what exactly is the ghost captain going to do?

Fan Na frowned, and said slowly while thinking: “Bishop Valentine, do you think…the Lost Homeland has something to do with the recent changes in the city-state by those Sun believers?” After she finished speaking, she

paused , and added: “In the dream last night, I saw the Burning Sun and the Lost Homeland appearing together in Purland. The simultaneous arrival of the two disasters may be the omen given to me by the goddess…” “But do

n’t Forgot, in the underground sacrificial site, the polluted ‘sacrifice’ killed the priest of the dark sun, that was a baptized ‘messenger’,” the bishop shook his head, “at least in that sacrificial site, the Lost Country The position with the Black Sun seems to be hostile.”

Fan Na didn’t speak for a while, but fell into deep thought because of the bishop’s words, and the old man opposite her continued after a short silence: “As for those believers who worship the Dark Sun, today I In the morning, I got some reports from the city-state of Lunsa…”

Fanna raised her head immediately: “Information?”

“The sun heresy is not just revived in Purland, they have changed in many city-states recently, a large number of sun heresies Recently transiting through the ports of Lensa and Moco, they are gathering in Pland, and some of them have been arrested,” the old bishop nodded, “During the interrogation, those heretics mentioned ‘shards of the sun’.” “Shards of the sun…

those Heretics claim the ‘true sun god’ peeled off after the disintegration?” Fanna suddenly reacted, “They think there is a piece of the sun hidden in Prand?” “It seems to be the case at present, I don’t know where those heretics got it from

. Intelligence, or maybe the ‘revelation’ they got in their madness, in short, now they firmly believe that part of the wreckage of their ‘lord’ is hidden in this city,” Bishop Valentine said with a calm expression, “and they regard this as Hope for the revival of the dark sun.”

“…those lunatics,” Fanna couldn’t help cursing in a low voice, “how many lives have they killed in order to revive that dark and blasphemous sun!”

“The dark sun is what we call it. The sun god in their minds is radiant and represents the most real order—you can’t expect those irrational cultists to have any conscience when their hands are bloody. “Valentin shook his head, “They firmly believe that what they say and do is justice, and there are only two languages that work best when dealing with them, one is the caliber and the other is the pound.” Listening to the bishop, this is quite deep

. The corner of Fan Na’s mouth couldn’t help trembling when she spoke in the church style: “It seems that we have to be busy.” “The

boundless sea is never peaceful, and the city-state is also in the boundless sea,” Valentine said, “The captains will Facing the storm in the ocean, we have to face the storm brought by the fools of the world, judge, get ready, the city-state of Puland may face a challenge.” “Two challenges,” Fanna said

seriously He corrected, “In addition to the believers of the Black Sun, there is also a mysterious and terrifying Captain Ghost – if the Lost Home and the Black Sun are really not the same, then our troubles will change from one to two.”

Valentine The bishop pondered for a while: “Perhaps there is another possibility—according to the situation in the sewer sacrificial field, the Lost Home may fight with the followers of the Black Sun?” “…

The two troubles have merged into one.” Destroying troubles, Bishop Valentine,” Fanna looked at the old man who had obviously started to think differently, “The ghost ship returned from the subspace and a group of cultists who were scrambling for sun shards fought in the city-state of Purand. Get up, and there may be a dark sun descending in the middle, I can’t think of a worse situation than this.”

Valentine sighed and admitted that Fan Na was right.

“In short, work together with the sheriff’s troops first to arrest all the sun heretics that have infiltrated the city-state, and eliminate the threat of the black sun before the situation becomes serious. This is an easier goal to achieve,” Fan Na said. After the Lost Homelander interfered with her mentally and entered her field of expertise, her thinking was obviously active, “As for that ghost ship…we don’t know what it will do next, so we have no way of doing it for the time being, so we can only do it first. Good for monitoring the spirit world and the surrounding waters of the city-state…”

Speaking of this, the young judge couldn’t help but shook his head, with a serious and helpless expression: “Damn, who knows what a ghost captain will want to do next…”… “

I

want to add some tomato sauce…” Duncan He waved to Nina who was across the table, “Just pass it over and I’ll make it myself.”

Nina immediately passed the ketchup and said, “Okay

, Uncle Duncan .” Lunch in the kitchen, the food in the antique store is very simple – a kind of salty pancake, a local specialty of Praland, served with tomato sauce or hot sauce, and vegetable soup. It is not a delicious meal, but whether it is Duncan or Ni Nadu ate with relish.

It’s been a long time since Duncan had a normal lunch like this, and it’s been a long time since Nina had a normal lunch like this.

Duncan thought he was beginning to like the place.
