MTL - Deep Sea Embers-Chapter 58 bilge
Duncan has always wondered how special and dangerous this gothic figure calling herself "Alice" is, so nervous that the sailors who **** her are so nervous that she is in a world full of dangerous and strange things. Can occupy the name of Anomaly 099.
It is true that a puppet that can move on its own and is rational is indeed very evil. The occasional scene of her running around with her head or splitting her head is also really scary, but in Duncan's view, this evil is far from enough. The standard for "obtaining a high-ranking number", the simplest comparison is an information he learned from Nina:
Anomaly 196-Blood, a dangerous anomaly contained and sealed in the underground sanctuary of the Pradesh Church. Its body is blood equivalent to the blood volume of an adult male. This anomaly has certain thinking characteristics and will flow and spread on its own. Actively try to replace the blood in the nearby eligible "hosts" and occupy the body to escape. The way to prevent their flow and spread is to store them in twenty-two blood tanks and keep them frozen - but if the storage point is within ten meters If someone bleeds, the seal will be invalid immediately, the blood in the body of the bleeder will be replaced by abnormal 196, and the sanity of the host will also be taken over.
This anomaly ignores the countermeasures below the Saint, and will unconditionally kill the host that meets the requirements.
As one of the most dangerous anomalies managed by the city-state of Perand, information on Anomaly 196-Blood is always open to the public to ensure that once the anomaly leaks into the urban area, the authorities can quickly locate and take measures to deal with it.
Duncan doesn't know what the so-called "saint" is, but from the name, you can tell that it should correspond to some kind of powerful superhuman level. Perhaps the judge Fanna who appeared in the newspaper is a saint— — And how many saints like her are likely to fight against the anomalous 196 in the entire Prand city-state?
This is just anomalous 196, something that ranks nearly two hundred out of 100—Alice's number is anomalous 099.
less than one hundred.
Although according to Nina, there is a little uncertainty in the numbering of anomalies and anomalies, and there is not always an obvious strength comparison between different anomalies and anomalies, but in general, the top anomalies and anomalies Elephants usually have higher dangers, or more bizarre and uncontrollable "characteristics", or they have caused amazing damage or contributed to special historical events, firmly occupying unique characteristics in a historical way. Upper number.
In any case, numbers within 100 digit signify strange characteristics and dangers that are extremely difficult for the civilized world, or some amazing work has been done in history, but this cursed doll named Alice ...
Duncan turned his head to look at Alice, who was following behind him honestly. The latter noticed the captain's gaze, and immediately raised his head, with a harmless and slightly cowardly smile: "Hehe..."
It's impossible to expect this guy to figure out his own danger by himself - you still have to find a way to go back from the historical archives of the Perland city-state.
But how can an antique store manager who lives in Xiacheng get access to this "secret information"? The "antique industry contacts" left by the cultist Ron is obviously impossible, and most of the things in that store are no more than last week...
Duncan pondered quietly, without stopping at the same time, the green fire of the spirit body burned quietly in the lantern in his hand, and gradually filled the depths of the cabin, and those who showed "reverse phase" due to the strange environment of the bilge. "The ambient light of the state is mixed with the light of the lantern, presenting a bizarre, even dizzying, psychedelic state of light and shadow.
To outsiders, this scene is probably an extremely eerie and terrifying picture.
However, Duncan's heart felt a faint calm. His power was soaked in the light of the lantern, like a trickle of water, infiltrating the depths of the cabin that had been closed for an unknown number of years. This area was completely unknown to him before. The bilge structure was becoming clear in his mind a little bit, and there was a subtle "touch"——
The last area on the Homeless that was not under the captain's control was back on track, and Duncan could feel more and more clearly that as he explored, the faint "restlessness" of various things in the cabin around him was gradually calming down. .
Indeed, as the goat's head said, the bilge of the Lost Homeland had some "changes" because it had been immersed in the boundless sea for a long time, but as long as the captain came down to comfort it, the order on the ship would gradually calm down.
"You really are afraid of the bottom of the sea, even if you just come to the cabin below the sea level, you will be so afraid," Duncan suddenly said to Alice who was following him. "Then why do you have to follow?"
"I...I didn't expect so much at the time!" Alice forced her composure, "I was thinking no matter how I go, it's still on the boat...I don't have the concept of 'the cabin below the waterline'! I just Doll!"
"You don't even have a digestive tract and you still study cooking - don't use dolls as an excuse," Duncan said casually. "You need to make up for your knowledge on the ship in the future."
Alice sighed in frustration, Duncan was silent for a while and then asked curiously: "Why are you so afraid of the deep sea? Or...why are you so afraid of 'being in the sea'? I know the deep sea is very dangerous, many Everyone is afraid of the deep sea. You mentioned this reason, but now it seems... your nervousness is more serious than I imagined, and it has reached the point where you just stand in a cabin below the waterline, just think of the sea outside. The level of nervousness... don't pull the lace on your clothes, there is no replacement clothes for you on the Lost Homes, so you can sew them by yourself."
"Oh," Alice hurriedly relaxed her hand a little, but then tugged on the button unconsciously, "I... I haven't thought about this at all, I'm just afraid, is it not enough?"
Hearing Miss Doll's nervous tone, Duncan was noncommittal. He looked towards the end of the corridor and saw a sloping staircase already in sight.
That's deeper, possibly down to the bilge—the deepest point where the ship touches the Infinity Sea.
Duncan and Alice glanced down from the stairs. With the light from the spirit fire lantern, they did not see the cabin structure below, but a door standing in the depths of darkness.
Duncan couldn't help frowning when he saw the door.
The structure here is actually not normal. First of all, the road to the bilge is too long - the stairs between the upper cabins are actually continuous, and you can quickly reach the cabins on each floor. The stairs to the depths are located at the end of the corridor, and you need to go through almost the entire floor of the warehouse area to get there, which will undoubtedly affect the efficiency of the passage in the ship.
Second, there was an extra door under that staircase.
Duncan hesitated for a moment, but picked up the lantern and walked down slowly.
Alice was even more hesitant, but in the end she kept up with it honestly—it would be absolutely daring to let her return to the upper deck by herself, or she could feel a little safer by following behind the captain.
Soon Duncan came to the door. He raised his lantern to illuminate the surroundings, trying to find out if there was any text around the door - then a line of letters on the door frame appeared unexpectedly in his sight:
"The last door in the bilge"
"What does this mean?" Alice looked curiously at the letters on the door frame, "The last door in the bilge... Shouldn't the door number sign indicate the function of the room under normal circumstances?"
"Obviously a reminder," Duncan retracted his gaze to the door frame thoughtfully, put one hand on the door handle, and reminded the puppet beside him before opening the door, "If after entering, If you find other doors exist, don't touch them."
Alice nodded nervously, and then saw Duncan shove the "last bilge door" open.
A strange pale gleam came upon him.
They stepped forward and stepped into an open space.
After seeing the situation on the opposite side of the door, Alice's eyes widened instantly: "This...this..."
She said "this" for a long time before she finally said, "Ship... Captain! The bottom of the boat is broken! It's broken!"
She shouted loudly, but Duncan didn't respond for a while - because the latter was also staring at the situation around him.
The deepest part of the Homeless, the bilge structure immersed in the boundless sea - to pieces!
What you see is the cabin that is completely torn apart, with countless huge cracks and shimmering voids. order", maintaining the proper outline and structure of the bilge.
And through the huge crack between the countless fragments, Duncan can clearly see the "landscape" beyond the bilge——
It was not the deep and dark boundless sea he imagined, but a pale and gloomy nothingness, as well as countless dim light and shadows that swiftly shuttled through the nothingness.
