Deep Sea Embers

Chapter 173: Greatly shocked

Views:

General Berazov arrives at the secret room.

The moment he stepped into this large building made of a mixture of solid reinforced concrete and a huge stone base, the burly gray-haired soldier felt a majestic, solemn, heavy and eerie atmosphere. This atmosphere came from the rune reliefs that could be seen everywhere in the building and the tightly closed doors along the corridors.

The runes that can be seen everywhere are part of the building's security measures. They are designed to resist external supernatural invasions and prevent unwanted visitors from entering the building. Behind those closed doors are deep corridors. The end of the corridor may be a sealing room for anomalies, or a dangerous sample warehouse, or even a researcher who has fallen into temporary madness, and ancient files that are forbidden to touch but cannot be destroyed.

Walking inside this building is like walking in the gap between the real world and the abyss of madness, as if standing on an invisible line of defense overlooking another sinister world. Even ordinary people without any extraordinary powers or spiritual talents may feel their nerves tense and their hair stand on end.

"…Are the security measures here really sufficient to ensure that 'that thing, won't have any problems?"

General Belazov followed a military scholar who was leading the way, and couldn't help asking as they passed a pitch-black alloy door.

"'Secret Room, this facility is the most heavily guarded building on Dagger Island. All rooms here have individual security and supernatural barriers. Every item with a danger level of more than level three has a direct connection to the furnace. Even without the various supernatural barriers, this building can withstand the full-scale attack of a Saint-level enemy just from the structural strength alone," the scholar who led the way said in a proud tone, "Unless some ancient god spreads his power in, this place is doomed to fail."

At this point, the scholar who led the way paused, and then continued, "Speaking of which, 'that thing, although it reveals strangeness everywhere, it is actually much more stable than we initially imagined... ', and can even be said to be honest."

"Stable? Honest?" General Berazov frowned and spoke subconsciously.

"Yes, although it's not very precise to say so," the scholar who led the way nodded, "that thing has been hanging in the center of the secret room for many days. Normally, this kind of strange thing will show some characteristics of being 'alive' to a certain extent, and will affect the surrounding environment in various ways, but it has never shown any such behavior. It has not released any matter, has not emitted any power, and has not shown any characteristics beyond the real dimension. Although the samples scraped from it have some strange physical properties, they are limited to physical properties. Compared with most security items of the same level, it is as honest as a stone."

The sound of some mollusk moving its limbs came from inside the blue coat.

The general made no comment and just looked up to the end of the corridor.

This was the first time that the biggest pirate leader on the Leng Leng Sea struggled for so long about "going out".

Why is my father's messenger making such a noise

"Captain, could you please stop looking and let this bird get off my head first..." Aiden's voice was a little trembling, "The fire keeps falling on me.

"It doesn't matter. I don't really care about these rules," the general said, frowning slightly. "Is it my illusion? There seems to be a strange smell in here - I smelled it since I came in. It seems to be the smell of some... aquatic creatures."

A researcher in a blue coat came from the opposite direction and passed by here in a hurry. When he passed by the general, he nodded to the latter and left without stopping.

Tirian took one last look at his coat and hair, then left the mirror and walked over to a nearby shelf, looking at the items on it.

"I mean, you'd better hurry up," Aiden's voice sounded again, this time with obvious relief, "For the Queen's sake... the messenger is coming!"

At this moment, the voice of the first mate Aiden suddenly came from outside the door, interrupting Tirian's thoughts: "Captain, are you ready?"

This is where he spent his childhood, and most of his memories are here.

The part of remembering and facing is also here. After a century of absence, he suddenly found that he could not imagine what it would be like when he stepped onto this ship.

Tirian blinked hard, finally focusing his vision and seeing the face of the person in front of him clearly.

And on the chest of this giant skeleton bird, one can clearly see a copper compass floating in the air - this is something that belonged to my father.

Professor Myerson stood in the doorway.

But he found Aiden was about to faint.

But that was not his father—the figure looked too slender compared to his father, and more like a woman.

Looks a little familiar.

It seemed that there was a very tall figure standing in front of him.

The amulet has no practical effect, but it may have some psychological comfort. However, I don't know what my father's attitude is towards the "gods" now. Will he like them or disdain them

His loyal first mate was standing there tensely. A terrifying giant skeleton bird covered in green flames was standing on Aiden's bald head. The skeleton bird was covered in flames, and bits of spiritual flames kept falling, landing on Aiden from time to time.

Finally, he sighed and said to Tirian: "Captain Tirian, I know you have many questions..."

Then he began to wonder what the strange words that the strange bird suddenly uttered meant - but he couldn't figure it out after thinking for a long time.

The next second, he felt dizzy, as if all the senses in his body were being disrupted and reorganized, and then he felt that he was instantly thrown into the sky at an unknown height - he shuttled through darkness and heat, and he didn't know how much time had passed, or maybe it was only a moment, and this strange feeling of dizziness and detachment suddenly disappeared without a trace.

The giant skeleton bird tilted its head, as if observing Tirian carefully, and suddenly opened its mouth and uttered a strange female voice: "Go to Chenghua Avenue, take Wuxian Bridge... Get on the bus! There are seats, big seats! Everyone, please move back a little... Peanuts, drinks, mineral water!"

Before he finished speaking, he saw the giant bird suddenly step on Aiden's head and fly into the air, then dive down from the sky, accompanied by a dark green flame filling the field of vision. Only a strange cry came to Tirian's ear: "Your father is here!"

Tirian was immediately startled by this series of voices, and the first sentence that came to his mind was -

He was going to the Lost Homeland—he was going back to the Lost Homeland.

He was determined for a long time to take something with him.

"This is Dagger Island Bay. The ventilation system of a building is directly connected to the outside. It is normal to have this smell. Add to that the strange smell coming from the disinfectant and the sedimentation tank. Whatever you smell is normal," the scholar who led the way said, sighing, "In fact, we have always wanted to apply for funds to repair the ventilation pipes here, but the response from our superiors is always that it is fine as long as it can be used."

“Everyone here is in a hurry.”

General Berazov said casually.

Weapons seemed to be of no use. He could not rely on a sword or a gun to protect himself on the Lost Homeland. Moreover, he was invited to be a "guest" on the Lost Homeland. If he brought weapons with him, it would not only seem too insincere, but it might also anger his father.

Aiden's voice continued to ring: "Captain, if you don't open the door I will...ah, thank God, you finally opened the door!"

"Yes, it's like that every day in the chamber - our work is not limited to analyzing this diving bell, but also includes monitoring other things outside the facility," the leading scholar shrugged, "Please don't mind our impoliteness."

The messenger has arrived.

The biggest pirate leader in the Frigid Sea is in great shock.

"... This is an interesting situation. I will report it to the city-state governor." General Belazov said casually.

Tirian was startled, then he realized the strangeness in Aiden's tone, and hurried to the door and opened it.

Should I bring a sword? Should I bring a gun? Should I bring an amulet

Tirian frowned and shouted to the door

"It will be ready soon, don't rush me."

Normal 022, spiritual compass.

"Let's go," Tirian shook his head, forcibly throwing aside the messy thoughts in his mind, and no longer thinking about how to face his father after arriving at the Lost Homeland. With the mentality of leaving everything to chance, he looked at the strange skeleton bird, "Let's go...

The feeling of being grounded reappeared, the darkness and weightlessness dissipated, the sunlight shone through the mist and shone on his body again. With the return of the familiar five senses, Tirian saw that the scene in front of him gradually became clearer from the shaking.

"He brought Plender up here?!"

Without waiting for Vanna to speak, Tirian took half a step forward and stared at the Inquisitor in front of him in amazement.

Fanna looked at the pirate leader in front of her with a strange expression, then turned her head awkwardly to look at the few figures not far away who were waiting to watch the fun.
