Bab 67: New Contact

Goathead is a dangerous fellow, Duncan has known since the beginning—not just because he’s an obscure anomaly, but because he’s loyal to the real Captain Duncan, and is still following the old rules to this day. Act and think.

From the perspective of Goat Head, the city-states on land are meaningless, the mortals in the city-states are stupid and ridiculous, the weak city-state fleets are all food, and plundering and killing them… Ini adalah “everyday” of Homeless.

Duncan didn’t know how long it would take him to adjust the goat-head’s thinking habits, but he knew that the process had to be subtle – using some reasonable reasons to change his own and Homeless’s style of behavior was the safest way.

He took one last look at the goat’s head, who was waiting quietly on the sailing table, to confirm that the other party had taken over the sail and rudder system of the Lost Country, and then pushed the door and walked into his bedroom.

Sore ini, Nina will be back at the antique shop, dan sebelum itu, he will have the pigeon Ai Yin complete more testing projects.

The door leading to the captain’s quarters was closed, and the goat head quietly stared in the direction of the door in the dark. It was silent for an unknown period of time. It was only after confirming that the captain’s consciousness had set off for the spiritual world walk, it whispered softly as if talking to itself. Goo up: “It’s really not affected by the warp…”

Dalam kegelapan, Mu Wither’s goat head creaked and turned, as if it was looking around the room, and it seemed as if its eyes penetrated the room and looked around the whole ship.

“Homeless, ah, lost home… What terrible thing did you fish for back then…”

…

Duncan has returned to the familiar dark space, and he feels his will extending between countless starlight and shimmering lines, and the two ends of the extended trajectory are the Lost Homeland and the antique shop located in the city-state of Pland.

It seems that with the extension of this “two-wire connection”, this feeling is also becoming clearer, and now he doesn’t even need to concentrate deliberately, he can perceive the situation in the antique store – he can also remotely control the The body in the store performs some simple daily activities.

This is obviously a good thing. An antique shop owner who spends more than half of the time ‘sleeping” in the shop is obviously suspicious, and even if the body is just getting up and moving, standing at the door for a minute or two, it can Dispel a lot of unnecessary attention.

Duncan did not immediately “transmit” his main consciousness to the city-state of Prand, but stopped in the dark space. He carefully sensed the changes in the space, and then looked back to his side.

In the vast darkness, Ai Yinzheng, in the form of a bone dove, hovered silently, and his ghostly body kept shedding green firelight in the flight. film.

Among those phantoms were the Sun Talisman that had been brought to the Lost Land, a quaint old short dagger, a piece of cheese, a round cannonball, and a hard dried salted fish.

These are the “test items” he prepared before departure to further test Ai Yin’s ability to carry items and the changes in the carrying process.

Short daggers were found in the cabins of ships that might have once belonged to some sailor, thoughtless “ordinary objects”, cheeses were taken from the kitchen and had the property of being incorruptible, shells were from ammunition depots, and salted fish was It is one of the harvests from the last fishing. It has just been dried in the past two days – nyatanya, it has not been thoroughly dried, but it is already hard.

Duncan looked at Ai Yin hovering around these phantoms and nodded slightly: “So you always carry things like this every time.”

Ai Yin flapped his wings and let out a hoarse and sharp cry: “Duduk dengan kuat, sit tight, sit tight!”

Duncan smiled, then concentrated his mind and prepared to project his main consciousness.

But at the moment of concentration, he suddenly saw a strange shimmer at the end of the light stream that pointed to the city-state of Perland!

Duncan stopped immediately and looked at the light shining in the countless dark stars in surprise – the light seemed to be there originally, but only changed from dark to bright in the moment of his concentration, as if he was suddenly noticed In general, it began to exude a clear sense of presence.

Apa itu?

Duncan tried to lean towards the shimmering light in doubt, but just a thought, he had already crossed the vast darkness, the shimmering light rapidly expanded in front of his eyes, and turned into a stream of light flowing up and down in front of his eyes.

Only then did he see that there was an untraceable “connection” between the flowing light and himself – it was like the connection between his body on the Lost Home and the spare body in the antique store. Sama.

Ini adalah…another alternate body to choose from?

Duncan couldn’t help but have such a guess in his mind, but he quickly shook his head – the small light flowing in front of him far surpassed the light spots representing the “tubuh” in scale, such a large light… It is not so much a representation of waiting The body chosen was rather a huge object that established a connection with him.

In hesitation, he made up his mind and reached out his hand to touch the light discreetly…

Di detik berikutnya, a huge and unfamiliar “persepsi” suddenly flooded into his mind – he couldn’t see the things around him, but he felt the sea breeze blowing his body, and the waves were slowly rising and falling around him. There are many people walking around him, even walking on his body, he heard people talking from all directions, but all the voices were mixed together, and it seemed that there was a thick curtain, and he couldn’t hear it at all. .

He vaguely realized that he was perceiving the environment through the perspective of a behemoth, but this behemoth was not suitable for his spirit to descend directly, or there was some kind of power protecting this thing and preventing his own power from invading, so All his perceptions appear to be delayed and blocked.

This behemoth seems to be staying on the sea near the land, and many people are gathering here.

There was an air of tension and seriousness in the crowd, who seemed to be dealing with some serious danger, and everyone’s conversation was low and concise.

Duncan tried to concentrate, trying to hear what the voices seemed to be talking about through the heavy veil.

He worked hard for a long time, and finally heard a word that was repeatedly mentioned in these humming and rumbling voices – white oak.

Duncan took back the hand that touched the flow of light, and stared at the floating glimmer in front of him with some astonishment.

A shimmer of light floated in the darkness, vaguely showing the phantom of the ship.

White Oak… the name seems familiar, but I can’t remember when I heard it.

Duncan thought hard and recalled, and finally he had some superficial impressions in the depths of his memory. He recalled the ship he collided with in the spirit state when he was at the helm for the first time, and when the Homeless penetrated the other side. And out of date, I seem to have seen its name on the side of the ship… That ship seems to be called White Oak.

Segera setelah itu, he remembered the newspaper he had bought in the city-state of Perland. Pada waktu itu, an inconspicuous section in the newspaper seemed to mention this matter, saying that the ocean-going ship White Oak, which had been missing for several days, would Moored…

Duncan stared blankly at the glimmer of light floating in front of him.

This is the White Oak, which was responsible for escorting the White Oak of Anomaly 099.

The old captain and his crew who had tried to speak to him seemed to have finally arrived in the city-state of Pland – which was quite a delight.

Tampaknya, he made a connection with the ship himself.

Could it be that the connection was established after the original ‘spiritual collision” kecelakaan? Because the flames of the Lost Homes had spread to the White Oak?

There was a vague conjecture in Duncan’s heart, and he speculated on the various properties of his spiritual body flame. Pada waktu bersamaan, he was also thinking about whether the connection between himself and this steamship could bring anything. menggunakan.

After so long aboard the Homeless, he valued every connection between himself and the civilized world.

Now it seems that although the White Oak has docked, it is still in a state of blockade and surveillance. Those nervous people should be the “profesional” of the city-state who specialize in dealing with extraordinary visions.

Jelas, for people in the city-state, a ship that has been lost at sea is dangerous, and the experience of the other party’s negative contact with the Homeless may also be a major issue to be tried.

Duncan is now a little conscious of himself and of Homeless’s terrifying reputation.

Setelah berpikir sejenak, Duncan stepped back cautiously, not touching the fog in front of him.

As the number one boss of the boundless sea, he doesn’t intend to deal with the protectors of the city-state, and he doesn’t want to reveal that the White Oak has established a connection with “Captain Duncan” without knowing the details of those “extraordinary experts”. fact.

He didn’t want the connection between himself and the steamship to be discovered and wiped out – the connection was established anyway, as strong as an anchor under the sea, and he could wait patiently, the surveillance of the White Oak would one day be lifted.

Pada waktu itu, maybe he will be able to chat with the old captain calmly.

Find out what the old captain was shouting to himself when the wind and waves were too strong.
