Chapter 40: The Route to the End of the World
(The previous chapter has been fine-tuned. I think some of the contents of this chapter seem familiar. You can look back at the previous chapter)
This sound has no tone or volume, only majestic words linger in her ears.
In the profiling world, the sea water suddenly freezes, and cold and death are like strands of black hair that linger from behind Xiziyue.
This is the breath of the king of ocean and water! This supreme will soon descend into her profiling world!
Unable to exit the profile, the suffocation locked her throat, and no matter which direction it was muddy and dark, she was moving in the cold swamp, and the black cold was about to swallow up her head.
A glimmer of light flashed in the darkness, accompanied by warm currents.
This feeling of familiarity made her feel moved and her fear disappeared like a tide.
When she opened her eyes again, she came to the sunny beach again, wearing a plain white and transparent dress, and the blue sea water was waving, like a lullaby.
Soothing singing came from the other side of the sea, the waves gently wet her ankles, leaving traces of light kisses on the beach when the tide was low.
here we go again.
In her memory, there is no such warm sea, but every time she encounters danger, she can always see it, whether it is the underground church of Bride Island or the cocoons formed in the Bronze City, it seems like this place
It is the secret located in the deepest part of one's soul.
Whose singing came along the sea breeze?
Xiziyue couldn't help but want to walk over.
The moment she stretched out her feet and penetrated into the sea, everything in front of her suddenly weathered, the light became illusory, the lines disappeared, and the colors separated.
The profile is also passively released for unknown reasons.
On the wide deck, Xi Ziyue stared blankly at the vast sea of ice in front of her, and her lonely emotions fermented in her mind for no reason, as if she had missed something very important.
"How, have you found traces of Caesar's team?" The vice principal seemed to stop when he saw her.
"No...but it's really unusual here. I can feel some inconsistent areas nearby," said Nishiziyue.
"A area that is not very coordinated? Can you explain it carefully?" The vice principal was curious.
"It's not easy to describe. What you have to say is like something that shouldn't exist, but something that should have exists is empty... Maybe those are the entrances to Nibelon root?
"Xiziyue said.
The vice principal held his jaw and thought: "So that's true, it really fits the description of Nibelonan... The so-called Nibelon is not a space created out of thin air, but requires the help of the real world.
Some operating rules in this are based on. The reason why you feel that those places are inconsistent is because their original operating rules have been modified... Can you confirm the specific locations of those unconciliatory places?"
Xiziyue shook her head: "I can't confirm, they seem to be everywhere."
"Hey, your girl's statement is a bit scary, it makes us seem to be surrounded by Nibelon." The vice principal calmly lit a cigar and touched it into his mouth, "Okay, I understand the general situation,
Any other discoveries?”
Xiziyue hesitated for a while and said, "I just caught the traces of the King of Ocean and Water."
"The King of Ocean and Water?" The vice principal was shocked and he leaned on the screen. "You can even write the traces of the Dragon King? I haven't heard you say this before?"
"This may be related to the entire Arctic Ocean, which is the territory of the King of Ocean and Water. Its traces are everywhere in every corner of the sea. No matter where I am or in which direction I open the profile, I will eventually capture it
The traces of the slightest answer.” Xiziyue answered calmly.
"What's the result? You have written the traces of it in a profile. Can it see its specific direction? Or does its appearance work?" The vice principal felt indescribable excitement.
"I'm sorry, I still know nothing about it." Xiziyue said.
"Then how did you confirm that you caught the traces of it?" asked the vice principal.
“Because of fear.”
"Fear?" The vice principal was stunned, "For example, the four monarch-level dragon power?"
"It can be understood this way. In short, there was a moment when I suddenly felt very scared. Something scary was approaching behind my back... So I forcibly interrupted the profile." Xiziyue thought about it and added, "If
Continue to write the plot, the consequences are unimaginable."
"That is to say, in this sea area, the profile is carefully written, right?" The vice principal understood something.
"Maybe it is." Xiziyue nodded.
"About the general understanding, let's get here for today's search first, thank you for your hard work," said the vice principal.
The searchlights were turned off one by one, and the deck fell into darkness again. An extremely fierce hail came unexpectedly, slapped on the side of the ship, making empty and dull sounds.
.....
.....
"Ah snee!" Xiziyue shivered coldly.
Although she has a lot of cold resistance recently, she still can't stand it if she stays outdoors deep in the Arctic for so long.
With just a sneeze, Hui Liyi and Zero Shuang's eyebrows flashed, and a cup of hot milk and a cup of hot coffee were handed to her face.
On the left is Huiliyi's milk, on the right is Zero's hot coffee, so... Xiziyue felt a little dilemma.
At first glance, this seems to be the concern of my companions, and I should accept it all, but she always feels that this is a multiple-choice question, which pays attention to the order of order...
Charlotte also realized it and looked around for a few times, but couldn't find a cup of hot stuff. So he grabbed a bag of potato chips nearby and put them on Xiziyue's face, looking "I'm very considerate too."
Pride.
Why are you proud of? After you catch a cold, do you always eat potato chips to warm your body?
"I'll come first." Airi said with her eyes, and there was a black air on her eyebrows.
This... I accidentally fell into the strange Shura field!
Xiziyue had no choice but to choose her hot milk and put Zero's hot coffee and Charlotte's potato chips aside for the time being.
"Didn't the profile result go well?" asked Zero.
"Yes, this sea area is not very friendly to me." Xiziyue looked at the wind and snow outside the floor-to-ceiling window. Although it couldn't blow in, she felt the sound of the cold wind crushing on the window.
Zero didn't ask much, and roughly understood what was going on... Xiziyue mentioned to her about the king of oceans and water. In this sea area, it is the ultimate master, its
Traces are naturally everywhere.
"How is the search for the ancient dragon embryo?" This time it was Xiziyue's turn to ask.
"It's strange that since we entered this sea area, the heartbeat of the embryo has disappeared again. We don't have time to send a dive team to salvage it, so we can only monitor it on the shore." Zero said.
"It's not good news either." Xiziyue sighed in a low voice.
"It should be soon. The thick fog shrouded in the Arctic Ocean has not dissipated, which means that the Nibelon root has never been closed. Since we have confirmed the approximate location of the entrance, it is only a matter of time to find it...I
On duty, you can have a good rest first."
......
......
In the sea of ice in the Nibelon root, it is also late at night.
The temperature here did not decrease with the nightfall, and it was still in an ordinary cold state. Fragile ice was waving on the sea surface, and the strange crescent moon was hanging high.
On the Xiagu, half of the area was lit, and elites with sniper rifles patrolled high places, guarding the dead ocean.
The crew's search for the Netherworld is still ongoing.
In the combat command room in the cabin, Caesar watched the information presented to him, frowned, and Finger beside him was also pretending to browse the documents carefully, chewing his thumbs up.
"What's the secret hidden toilet found in the captain's room?" Finger was stunned. "This shows Captain Franklin has a unique hobby for toilets? Is this too embarrassed to write it into the investigation report?"
"In that era, toilets were a rare thing, especially the toilets on the boat." Caesar kept silent and carefully browsed the information. "The space on the boat was limited, and in many cases, they had to solve the problem on the deck towards the sea, but as
A polar adventure ship, the temperature outside is as low as minus 30 degrees Celsius. If the captain doesn't secretly build a toilet for his room, he has to squeeze into the public toilet with ordinary soldiers... I will definitely not do it.
.”
"Okay, I've learned a lot. You can speak so seriously even if you are so serious." Finger showed a surrender expression.
"If the situation is not too suspicious, I would also like to express a little physical discomfort to ease the atmosphere." Caesar threw the document on the table and raised his legs to ponder, "According to the investigation, this ship has indeed happened to ordinary people.
It seems to be an incredible supernatural event, but it is much easier to understand for us."
He took out a few old notepads from the drawer, slapped them on the table, and pushed them at Finger.
"As I thought, it is not only the captain who likes to write diaries, but many crew members like to record what they see and hear on the sea." Caesar said.
When Finger was about to open one of the books and take a look at the first-hand information in person, he thought for a while and put down his notebook: "Forget it, I don't pretend to be a personal one. Please reveal any explosive information directly."
"In history, the last time this expedition came from was in July 1845, but according to the information we have collected, they really happened in June of the following year, which was a very cold summer, the Arctic Ocean and
Before the two ships were frozen on the sea, watching the supply decrease day by day, until one day, the ice surface of the square and radius of mathematics began to shatter, and all the crew heard the singing of whales."
"Leviathan? Did it start moving so early? He also saved a group of humans?" Finger was surprised.
"It should be just an unintentional move. If you were a giant whale with supreme power, when you swam down the ice and smashed the ice, would you pay special attention to whether there are ships frozen on the ice surface that freeze humans?" Caesar
It is natural to say, "After getting out of danger, the expedition team entered this Nibelungen. According to the crew's diary, this is a miracle place. No matter how serious the wound is, it will heal automatically, and you can even avoid eating or drinking.
.”
"Although everything is going well, it sounds like they are not far from death," said Finger.
"Yes, after mortals come into contact with miracles, the consequences are often destruction. Not long after, the crew began to have hallucinations one after another and kill each other. After the crew died, people could also witness his ghost appear...
.It seems that there will be no real death here."
"It's time for this to be deadly. Are these people still free to write diaries?"
"Not many people really write it, even if it is written, it is still very sarcastic. However, we can still vaguely guess what happened after this from these divine diaries." Caesar gasped deeply, "
They met the god of death.”
"Death?" Finger was stunned.
"Many crew members mentioned the word "death" in their diaries, saying that it was to collect life, and some even painted his appearance." Caesar pulled out a diary and opened one of the pages.
On this page is a figure in a black robe. If this look does not depict the god of death, then it can only be the ring spirit in the Lord of the Rings.
Looking at the strange black shadow, Finger trembled inexplicably, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.
.....
.....
In front of the dim desk lamp desk, Chu Zihang was flipping through the captain's sailing diary that he had just obtained. The yellowed paper pages showed a mysterious like a parchment under the light.
In addition to the captain's navigation log, he also had a document submitted by Caesar. Compared with the two, he could obtain more complete information.
As he had a premonition, the captain's diary was much more detailed than the crew... If the judgment was not wrong, Captain Franklin might be a mixed race of certain bloodlines. When other crew members could not bear the torture of the illusion and were mentally broken
, He still barely maintained his intact mind and recorded what he saw in front of him until the last moment.
A waterway leading to the island of death.
"After the warmest current, there will be an orca that will lead you through the maze of the glacier and reach the sacred island, but only if you have to have a lamp in the hands of the god of death." Chu Zihang repeated the reading softly.
The contents of this diary.
He recalled the memories left in his mind, and vaguely remembered what kind of prop it was.
The boat that the god of death is riding... There is a coffin on the boat... The lights are hung on the bow...
Chu Zihang repeatedly browsed the diary and confirmed that there was no content on how to obtain the lamp, and he had no way of knowing how Captain Franklin got the lamp.
He closed his diary and supported his forehead to ponder.
As time passed, he once again got the opportunity to set foot on that island, without waiting for a specific opportunity or enforcing complex rules, just driving on the established route and returning to it.
The Nibelungan on this ice sea was understood with the Nibelungan on the island of death, or the island of death is located somewhere in this ice sea.
The fire-like emotions surged in his heart, and both instinct and reason required him to make urgent decisions.
Are you really going to return to it? Will you meet that powerful god of death again?
The memory of the time was when he pulled out his two swords, and the deeper he was towards the God of Death. As a result, he thought he had failed, and it was a high probability that he would have suffered a crushing defeat. The God of Death was no less powerful than the Dragon King.
He was very glad that he did not hand over this log of navigation to Caesar immediately. If he had learned that there was such a miracle island, he would undoubtedly have shown great interest in it, and the whole ship would not object to him.
Now that the choice fell in his hands, he knew clearly what powerful enemies there were on that island and what amazing secrets they had.
While thinking, the alarm sounded on the Xiagu number suddenly sounded, and all indicator lights switched to dark red.
Chu Zihang immediately tightened his nerves, snapped his fingers gently, burned the diary with his faint and accurate Jun Yan, and copied the long knife with his other hand.
He had basically remembered the contents of this diary, including that route...the route to the end of the world.
He pushed open the door and came to the corridor. He ran towards Finger. Chu Zihang followed him and asked, "What happened?"
"We're out!" Finger roared.
"Erwuzi?" Chu Zihang reacted for a while before remembering that the word refers to the traitor... This German man's Chinese skills are as fierce as ever.
"Who has betrayed?" Chu Zihang asked.
