[Chapter 766 “Route”]

Chapter 766 “Route”

It is no exaggeration to say that Duncan clearly heard a “crack” sound coming from somewhere on the sailor’s body – apparently one of the joints was dislocated when the mummy shivered.

Then the ghostly wails of Abnormal 077 exploded on the back deck: “Captain! Captain, don’t scare me! I am loyal, diligent, diligent and honest! You can tell me what I did wrong and I will change it. Don’t take this Scare me… How about you stuff me into a cannon and shoot me out…”

The mummy’s broken gong voice echoed over the entire rear deck, and he was yelling while pulling himself to the edge of the bridge. He climbed up the railing, looking like he was going to jump off this place in the next second – in fact, he actually climbed over the railing, but the moment he was about to jump out, a cable flew out like a sharp arrow. He got out, tied the guy’s ankles and dragged him back to the bridge, and also wrapped him around his body several times.

Duncan glanced at Anomaly 077 who was still struggling to crawl out with a half-smile, then took two steps forward and just watched quietly without saying a word.

Anomaly 077’s howling of ghosts and wolves stopped abruptly. He shivered visibly again, curled up his neck and stopped moving. After holding it in for a long time, he said: “If you are bored, just stew me…I will show you a pot.” Sit-ups…”

“There aren’t that big pots on the ship,” Duncan said casually, then put away the smile on his face and turned serious, “I’m serious – I need to do some tests.”

Noticing the captain’s tone and With the change in expression, Anomaly 077 finally realized something. He looked up at Duncan blankly: “…Test?”

“Let him go.” Duncan nodded and said casually – the cables that seemed to be alive immediately circled around. It fell off from Anomaly 077 and retreated to the side with a rustling sound.

The sailor climbed up in surprise. First he grabbed his thigh and cracked it to straighten the joint (now Duncan knew where the “crack” sound on this guy just now came from), and then nervously Following the captain, he looked around and paid attention to the movement of the cables around him – he came to the dark steering wheel, but still did not dare to reach out and touch it. After hesitating for a long time, he couldn’t help but say: “Is it what you want to test? It’s…”

“Route.” Duncan said calmly.

The sailor’s face changed slightly, and his eyes finally had a thoughtful look.

“I know you can’t recall anything about the route – Lucretia already told me,” Duncan turned to look into the sailor’s eyes, “but I trust the message Captain Kalani left in the log – -Strictly speaking, I think she should have considered the changes that may occur to you after returning to the Infinite Sea when she left that diary. After all, she had faced the gods directly and had undergone fundamental changes in herself. She has “recovered” from this change – she possesses “knowledge” that ordinary people cannot understand.”

As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed at the sailor.

“So, I want to understand ‘you’ now, and understand the truth hidden under your various ‘characteristics’ as ‘Anomaly 077’, just like Captain Kalani’s diary is recorded in your shroud, I think You “yourself” are also some kind of “carrier”, and to conduct a test in this area… letting you exert your “power” is the most effective way.” The

sailor was stunned, and lowered his head to look at his hands in thought. Hand: “My power…”

“Anomaly 077 will try to “take over” the ship closest to itself when active, and cause the ship to be randomly teleported within the boundless sea,” Duncan said slowly about the church. According to the record, regarding the out-of-control characteristic of “Anomaly 077-Sailor”, “Every time it is teleported, the affected ship will be involved in a storm – now, this characteristic arouses my curiosity.” The sailor seems to gradually understand.

The captain meant, he raised his head and looked at the dark steering wheel in front of him, which was slowly and automatically fine-tuning in the night, but he still hesitated: “But if I really touch the rudder…” “Don’t worry,

the Homeless Ship is still there. I won’t really be affected by you – I just want to observe how your ability works,” Duncan said casually, “And even if “teleport” and “storm” really happen, it won’t be a big problem. That’s not as good as a breeze to this ship.”

“Well, that’s not what I meant,” the sailor shook his head quickly and looked around warily, “I meant that this ship won’t beat me up… I have observed before that there are too many things on this ship that can beat people. I saw at least three fights in the two hours I boarded the ship…” As soon as he

finished his muttering, Alice beside him said proudly He puffed up his chest.

The corners of Duncan’s eyes suddenly trembled, and he looked at the inexplicably stiffened doll: “Why are you so proud!”

Alice raised her head: “I won the fight with the bucket!”

Duncan: “…”

He Forcibly ignoring the puppet lady beside him, his eyes fell on Anomaly 077: “I control everything on this ship. Now I allow you to take the helm temporarily. You don’t have to worry about the consequences. Of course, if you really interfere with this plan, I will There is another “research plan.””

The sailor’s eyes suddenly lit up: “Is there any other plan?”

Duncan did not say anything, but silently raised his hand, and a bright flame jumped from his fingertips.

The sailor’s eyes suddenly darkened: “I still like your first plan…”

Duncan casually dispersed the flames from his fingertips and gestured to the rudder next to him with his eyes: “Before I light the fire, do what you should do. ”

The sailor finally sighed. He knew that he had no reason to hesitate now.

His withered chest bulged hard, and he took a deep breath in the night. Feeling the cool air flowing out of his body, he gritted his teeth and came to the steering wheel. He closed his eyes and stretched out his hands.

Anomaly 077’s dry claw-like hands grasped the steering wheel of the Lost Home –

the first mate of the Sea Song began to take the helm.

And almost the moment the sailor touched the helm, Duncan heard an illusory and distorted roar – the sound was like the loud noise of the ship sliding into the sea from the shipbuilding platform, as if a huge wave was losing its homeland. Rising around the ship, the sea was shaking and cracking beyond the ship’s sides.

The Lost Home was affected by some kind of… “force”, and in an instant, Duncan captured this “touch” that was acting on the entire ship.

An ordinary ship would have been swallowed up by some kind of dimensional rift due to this “touch”, and would have been transported to a random place on the Infinite Sea, and been involved in a storm – but the Lost Home Still sailing steadily on the sea, under Duncan’s conscious control, the unknown force could not really affect the ship’s navigation.

Duncan frowned slowly. He sensed the current impact on the Homeless Ship. Then he seemed to suddenly feel something and turned his head to look aside.

A hazy phantom appeared in the corner of the bridge almost at the same time – Agatha, dressed as a female explorer, emerged from the mirror world. She looked at Duncan while holding on to the handrail beside her precariously: “Captain? What happened!? This side of the spirit world…”

Before Agatha could finish speaking, Duncan walked quickly towards her: “Agatha, I need to borrow your ‘eyes’.”

Agatha Hearing this, he was startled, but he immediately reacted and reached out to reach for his eyeballs: “Ah, okay, just wait a minute and I’ll pick it…”

Duncan was startled and quickly interrupted: “Stop! No need to pick it out!”

Agatha looked a little confused: “Huh?”

Duncan didn’t have time to explain, and directly lit a green flame, lighting it on the Agatha’s forehead –

“Don’t be nervous, it’s harmless.”

Before she finished speaking, the connection of the flames was established.

The gatekeeper’s vision reflected in Duncan’s eyes.

Everything in front of him seemed to be “shaking” rapidly and briefly, and all the lights and shadows were misaligned and then reorganized – Duncan felt that his field of vision was reversed several times, and then stabilized, and the latter was completely different from when Alice shared vision. The experience appears in his perception.

He saw the world in black, white and gray, and saw the phantom of the Lost Home reflected in the sea surface of the “sky”, and there were invisible waves rising and rising in the boundary between reality and illusion, and in all these intertwined, In the incredible scenery, he saw the…continuous collapse and reorganization of the sea in the distance!

In front of the Lost Home, the sea is constantly repeating the process of disintegration like a poorly connected illusion. Waves appear and disappear suddenly. The entire sea surface disappears at one moment and turns into a dark “empty”, and then at the next The moment is filled and reappeared, and misplaced scenery is constantly emerging in the distance. Every minute and every second, this process is repeated, just like… a “process” that is constantly restarting because it is stuck!

Duncan stood at the stern of the Reflection Lost Home, staring at the rapidly collapsing and changing “landscape” in the distance. Then he suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction of the ship’s rudder.

A hazy phantom stood there – holding the steering wheel tightly, but couldn’t see its face clearly. The transparency almost disappeared, as if it was just a lingering sound, bound to the rudder.

Agatha stood next to Duncan, and in the mirror world, her figure seemed extremely real.

Looking at the incredible scene on the sea in the distance, she finally couldn’t help but ask: “Captain, what on earth is that?” ”

…It’s a route,” Duncan said softly, “from the ‘border’ to the world composed of gods. The correct course of the ‘Outer Barrier’.”

Agatha’s eyes widened.

“As Captain Kalani said in her log, she handed over the route to her first mate – this route has not disappeared,” Duncan continued slowly, “Anomaly 077-Sailor, he is the route itself.”

The sea surface in the distance reorganized and collapsed again, and the illusory roar echoed across the entire sea, as if the whole world was resonating with it!

“This is the route. The so-called process of ‘Anomaly 077 taking over and causing the ship to teleport randomly’ is actually just some kind of navigation – the first mate of the Sea Song is trying to guide the ship to the ‘destination’ in his memory, but This process cannot be completed within the boundless sea, so…”

He paused and spoke softly after a moment.

“So, those storms.”
