Deep Sea Embers - Chapter 804

[Chapter 785 News from the North]

It is said that in the distant and cold Cold Sea, an organization called the “Northern City-State Federation” is being established in the night.

The legendary “Steel Lieutenant General” led his undead army to dominate the night, taking control of the situation before the tension accumulated between the city-states due to lack of sunlight exceeded the limit. Cold Harbor and Port Murphys were the initial Supporters, the covenant was signed under the witness of the Sea Mist.

Now, a powerful joint fleet has been established, and is protecting the safety of those city-states with insufficient sunlight in the increasingly dangerous and twisted night, and the city-states and churches The jointly established “Sunshine Distribution Committee” is closely monitoring the sun fragments falling on the sea to ensure that the afterglow of these doomsdays can illuminate the darkest places in the long night in time.

Heidi put down the newspaper in her hand and looked up at Mother City who was sitting next to the candlestick. The generator in the city had been repaired and now the bright electric light illuminated the living room again, but her mother still let her put a candlestick in the living room and promised Always have at least one candle lit.

“Now no city-state in the north is allowed to own sun fragments for a long time. The ‘Sunshine Distribution Committee’ rotates those fragments between city-states to prevent changes in some places due to being in darkness for a long time,” Heidi said from 2 The news I heard when I went to the city hall before was, “So now the northern city-states are actually taking turns to have daylight.” Large engineering ships pulling sun fragments are cruising on the cold sea, and each small sun is maintaining the security of each city-state… Speaking of which, she

paused

and then continued: “And in this way, the once-stopped shipping activities between city-states have also been restarted. Cargo ships can set off together with the engineering ships that tow sun debris. Although the overall efficiency Lower than before, but at least the logistics operation between city-states has been restored….

She stopped, thought about it, and couldn’t help but sigh from the bottom of her heart: “It’s really… It seems that the ‘Steel The Lieutenant General’ is not an ‘immortal king’ who executes a reign of terror as some rumors say…

“Rumors are rarely credible. Don’t forget, the Homeless Ship is still at the end of the world for us. Looking for hope,” the mother was doing needlework with a smile on her face, “Is that what you just heard about from the city hall?”

“There are not so many details in the newspaper,” Heidi pointed. The newspaper on the table, “I heard from someone in the secretary’s office. The details about the Northern City-State Federation and the Sunshine Distribution Committee are not disclosed in the newspaper, but they are not confidential.

Mother thought for a moment and then spoke slowly: Really… It seems that we will soon have our own city-state union and sunshine distribution committee.

Heidi was startled for a moment. She seemed to have thought nothing of it.

“This is a good way to survive. Nowadays, as long as you can survive in the night, you can make the city-state managers take action. If these news can reach your ears, it means that this matter has at least been discussed by the Archon. We are halfway through our advance,” my mother said casually, with some relief in her tone. “The city-states in the north have made a good start… The ‘Steel Lieutenant General’ has shown us a feasible way. , and as this news spreads, no matter what their private thoughts are, the city-states in other sea areas must consider this plan openly… What

if those city-states that have obtained the sun fragments are not willing to cooperate?” Heidi. I understood what my mother meant, but I couldn’t help but feel a little worried. After all… not everyone is selfless.

The mother thought for a while and suddenly asked a seemingly irrelevant question: “It is said that the church’s fleet docked at the military port west of Pland two days ago?”

“Yes, the Deep Sea Church’s Abyss and the Academy of Truth. “Logic, leading their respective escort formations,” Heidi nodded, “it said it was stopping on the way to patrol the safety of the sea area.”

“That’s right, Heidi,” her mother nodded, with a fond look on her face. He smiled indulgently, “Guess, why did the ‘Vice Admiral Steel’ first step in establishing a city-state union was to establish a joint fleet under his own control?”

Heidi finally showed a hint of realization on

her face. A respected psychiatrist and an excellent scholar of the Academy of Truth, but obviously a little slow to respond outside her professional field, but even so, she had already understood at this time,

“Heidi, we should celebrate, in the morning .

After such a long period of darkness, something good is finally going to happen.” With a smile on her face, her mother slowly stood up and walked to the kitchen and said, “I’m going to make some special dishes. You can use the bottles that your father collected. When the wine is brought out and we open a bottle, he won’t mind.

Oh…oh,” Heidi subconsciously agreed and stood up, but then she suddenly remembered something, “Ah, but my father has given up drinking, and all his wine collection has been given away…

” There is a white shelf next to the basement. The wooden box seems to have only one layer, but there is a raised wooden block on the side that can be pulled open and there is a mezzanine,” the mother said casually. “In addition, there are five bottles of wine behind the bench behind the shelf in the deepest basement. You can pick a bottle and bring it up.

Heidi was dumbfounded when she heard this: ….

My mother turned back in front of the kitchen with a victor’s expression on her face: “Can I still know him?”

….

in loss .

On the bow of the Xiang, Moss suddenly felt a coldness hit his heart. Although there was almost no wind on this calm sea, he felt that the cold wind had almost blown through the oil pump and miniature of Zi 2’s cast body. Steam core.

“What’s wrong with you?” Fanna noticed some noise coming from Moss’s body and asked curiously.

“It’s strange… This body should not be afraid of the cold, but why do I feel cold in my heart?” Moss muttered, wiping his pipe, “It feels like something I treasured has suddenly disappeared, or The things placed in the bank safe were taken away…

Halfway through the old scholar’s words, the captain’s voice came from behind him: “The way you describe it reminds me of an old man… His good things are given to monkeys.” Eaten secretly. “

Moss turned around and saw Duncan standing in front of him with a subtle expression.

“I have never heard of this story,” the old scholar said, a little confused on his face.

What is ‘monkey’?”

Duncan thought for a while:. …an animal, you just think it lives in subspace.

Moss was filled with awe for a moment and stopped asking questions.

Fanna next to him was still analyzing the initial topic seriously. At this time, he suddenly looked at the old scholar seriously: “Is this a warning from the God of Wisdom to you?” ?Did you predict what is about to happen?”

“That’s not serious, it’s not that serious.” Moss quickly waved his hand. “If it’s really a revelation from the Lord, it’s not just a chill. It’s probably the wine I hid. My wife discovered it again, it’s not a big problem.”

“Oh,” Fanna nodded, and quickly stopped paying attention to this problem, but focused on the captain, “Captain, when will we leave this sea area?” “

When it came to business, Duncan’s expression immediately became serious.

He raised his head and looked at the black island with the huge palace standing in the distance, as well as the Leviathan wreckage that was vaguely silhouetted in the mist around the island. Then he stretched out his hand to reach into his pocket and felt a slight cold metal touch coming from his fingertips. .

That is the “second key” used to wind up the doll.

“We will stay here for half a day, and I want to study the ‘route’ that Gemona gave me,” he said seriously, ” Before I ‘come back’, pay close attention to the movements inside and outside the ship, especially if there are any changes in the nearby sea surface. If there are any changes,

Moss nodded immediately: “Understood, Captain.”

Duncan turned and left the deck.

The scene was quiet for a while. Fanna turned around and looked at the large and small black islands in the distance with some trance. She didn’t make a sound for a long time.

“What are you thinking about?” Moss asked beside her.

..Since I was very young, I have often heard the sound of waves in my dreams. The waves in my dreams hit the rocks softly and gently,” Fanna said softly, “and after completing the church study, I understood No matter how I pray, I can always hear those sea marks during prayer… “The Original Book of Storms” says that it is the sound coming from the Kingdom of God.

She stopped, and after a moment of silence, she raised her hand and pointed to the calm and dead sea in the distance: “But listen to this, there is actually no sound of waves. The sea is so calm, as quiet as death, and there are only ships sailing. Sometimes, the water would make some noise.

The gentle sound of the waves sounded in her mind, as if to soothe her.

“These are the sounds in his memory,” Fanna said softly after a moment of silence. It has been many, many years since I have seen the undulating sea surface – I have almost forgotten what it looks like when the wind blows up the waves. “

Moss didn’t speak, but slowly put the unlit pipe in his mouth, and stayed by Vanna’s side calmly.

…

In the captain’s bedroom, Alice looked curiously at the uniquely shaped pipe .

Brass key.

“I have a new key!” She looked surprised and sounded quite happy. She took the key from Duncan and looked at it over and over. “The structure of the handle is different. It was different from before. That one is a lying 8. Is it a circle penetrated by arrows? What does this circle mean?”

“It probably refers to the ‘outer barrier’ surrounding the Infinite Sea,” Duncan said casually, looking helplessly in front of him. This heartless puppet, “Can’t you be a little nervous? No one knows what will happen after turning the key. “

Alice tilted her head, thought about it seriously, and felt that she should be nervous.

“It seems…yeah,” she scratched her head, her tone was a little uncertain, she was a little nervous, but no matter what happened. You must be able to handle the matter, right?”

Duncan was startled when he heard this, sighed helplessly, and then laughed.

“Yes,” he picked up the new key and nodded slightly to Miss Doll, “just leave it to me.”
