The speed of the Brilliant Star gradually decreased, and finally it cautiously stopped on the sea surface several hundred meters away from the translucent "cliff" emitting a faint glow.
However, the distance of several hundred meters was so insignificant compared to the scale of that huge monster. From a visual point of view, Luni still felt that the Yaocan Xingchen seemed to have already approached the "cliff". The magnificent geometric body in front of her, like a mountain, almost came towards her with a crushing momentum. If an ordinary person stood here... he would probably have felt suffocated.
"… It's really spectacular," the clockwork puppet couldn't help but sighed, looking up, "and it's beautiful." That thing is indeed spectacular and beautiful. If you ignore its weirdness, it can even be regarded as a magnificent wonder, enough to inspire an excellent artist's greatest inspiration in his life, or let a poet write countless poems for this wonder.
It is like a sharp-edged mountain carved from light golden and clear amber, or an exceptionally regular piece of geometric floating ice. It emits a hazy light mist and floats in the water. The surrounding thin mist slowly floats around its surface, outlining a dreamy atmosphere.
And all signs indicate that this thing is indeed like a "dream" and has no entity. Although it is indeed there, it seems to be just a huge shadow.
"Mistress," Luni couldn't help but turn her head. What do you think this is
"... I don't know, I only know that it fell from the sky." Lucrecia admitted her ignorance frankly. She recalled the scene when the Brilliant Star first tracked that thing. Just the day before yesterday, in the last few hours of the cruise, the Brilliant Star observed a huge and hazy luminous object suddenly falling from the sky. It was covered by clouds and disappeared into the depths of the border sea. Since then, she and your ship have been tracking that thing.
But apart from the obvious calamity that fell from the sky, I knew nothing about the phantom visitor.
Lucrecia observed the bottom of the huge geometric object alone and confirmed another thing.
She quickly ruled out that possibility - after regaining consciousness, I could still tell whether I was dreaming or not.
The hands on the wall clock stopped.
That was incredible. His body didn't even need sleep, let alone dream. In fact, he had never had a "dream" experience since he came on the ship. He had some messy and trivial dreams in Pland's body, but they were never as turbid and impressive as that short and strange dream.
The flame of the oil lamp in the bedroom was the only "moving thing" that was still burning fiercely, but the light it emitted was faintly pale, making the lighting in the entire room seem a little weird.
"It's a huge stone ball," Lucrecia said with a strange expression, "or at least it looks like stone. It has a grayish-white surface with many regular grooves. It's about ten meters in diameter and is suspended above the sea..."
The fact that it has some mass means that it can be bound by real matter... ...With the power of the Yaocan Xingchen, perhaps it can even tow that thing away
First go to the chart room and see if Goat Head knows what's going on.
Duncan frowned, resisted the urge to open the window and take a look outside the ship, and instead stood up and walked towards the wooden door of the bedroom.
"Master?" Luni turned around and looked at her master. "What's outside?"
Was it because I suddenly got that information and made the connection, or was it because the memory left by that body suddenly moved? Was my contact with Tirian and Lucrecia related to that dream
That thing was very light, very, very light. It floated on the sea, with the lower part only slightly submerged in the water. But the slight sign of it sinking into the water indicated that the thing that looked like a "phantom" also had some mass, and was not just a shadow.
The whole world seemed to have fallen into deathly silence, and in the midst of that chaos, a huge luminous object fell from the sky with a loud sound.
"…Are you serious?"
Duncan quickly calmed down and sat up from the bed, a little irritated.
Rubbing his forehead.
One by one, the lights
They fell to the ground and landed on the low surface of the Infinite Ocean. Although there was no larger falling object, it also did not cause the slightest movement, as if a phantom fell on another phantom. In particular, these luminous bodies gradually fell like rain, and finally turned into a terrifying and bizarre meteor shower - countless luminous bodies gradually covered the entire sea surface, surrounding the Lost Hometown in a radiance.
It was dark outside the window, with the glow of dawn, but also the cool and warm glow brought by the beginning of the world.
As she spoke, Lucrecia frowned and focused, as if she was giving some orders to the ghost phantom that had not yet entered the depths of the glowing geometric body. She continued, "Cannot touch, it is not a physical entity."
I pushed open the door to the chart room and looked at the navigation table with the nautical chart and goat's head on it.
Lunilu looked at the scene with some surprise, watching the ghostly phantom slowly cross the misty sea and then disappear silently into the "mountain".
Lucrecia looked at the glowing "mountain" in silence, and seemed to have made up her mind half a minute ago: "Go in and pull it."
Lucrecia nodded to the phantom, and the latter turned around and flew towards the "mountain" several hundred meters away.
Can we drag it back to the borders of the civilized world and organize a real professional team to study it? The Explorers' Association should be happy to help...
"Proceed with caution." Lucrecia said, raising her hand and breaking her own finger. A drop of blood oozed out from her fingertips, then slowly floated forward, and when it was halfway there, it suddenly exploded with a "bang" and turned into an exaggerated cloud of smoke.
He stood at the bow of the Homeless. There was dead silence on the ship. He could hear the noise of Goat Head in his mind and the quiet sound of Alice fighting with buckets and mops on the deck. Even the entire vast ocean was noisy. There were no waves and no wind.
Duncan tapped his forehead lightly, and reached out to the wine bottle on the cabinet next to him, ready to calm down with the power of alcohol, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, my eyes swept across the wall clock not far away, and my action stopped.
"The elf scholars in Haven should be interested in that thing," Lucrecia whispered. "The patterns on the surface of this stone ball have obvious rules and imply a simple geometric structure. You guess... someone who is good at mathematics should be able to figure out something from it."
Duncan suddenly opened his eyes. The deep impression left by the absurd dream still remained strongly in my mind.
Duncan looked up at the beginning and end of the dream and saw only a dark red and mottled horrible hole in the sky, which seemed to have a fire still burning in the darkness, and was quietly overlooking everything in the world like a dying eye disorder.
Duncan's eyes swept over everything calmly, taking in all the unusual phenomena.
He was shocked that he was dreaming on the boat, and even more shocked by the strange scene he saw in his dream.
Nothing happened.
"Non-entity." Luni was stunned for a moment, but her years of experience allowed her to quickly understand what the man meant. "You want to... drag it back?"
Under that strange and boundless sea, on the Lost Homeland, she was not sure whether the dream was just a simple dream - there must be something that had an abnormal effect on her, or her "intuition" had foreseen something, which made her see this scene in her dream.
Core? What kind? "
"He has reached the deepest part," said the Sea Witch, "and there is a core.
"How are you going to 'drag' that thing back?" Luni looked at her mistress in confusion, "Use a strong enough rope or chain? There are no spare ropes on the ship, but they may not be long enough - the projection of this luminous object is too large, and the distance from there to its core may exceed the limit of the rope..."
Lukeshia was thinking quickly in her mind, and Luni's voice sounded beside her: "Do you want to explore its interior
…Okay, she’s serious.
Stand still at the moment when sunrise is still minutes away.
Could it be related to the "world countdown" that he just learned about? And what will happen to this crazy person a hundred years later
Is it related to the "truth" about the end of the world that the crazy "Captain Duncan" came into contact with
The goat head is here. "You are getting curious."
However, the sky gradually became brighter as countless light bodies fell. At the end of the dream, the meteor shower gradually stopped, and the sky had not yet turned pitch white.
Lucrecia frowned slightly and looked back.
Luni nodded. Even though she was just a clockwork puppet, she had a "soul" that was closer to that of a human being than any other crew member on the ship. At this moment, a feeling of relief rose up in her. She reached behind her back and turned her clockwork key twice. In that way, she could quickly feel the slight vibrations of various parts in her body due to relaxation. Then she waited for a long time before she suddenly noticed the change in the hostess's expression.
But this is the theory, how to do it in practice? How to drag a huge, penetrating phantom? Or... is there a solid core deep inside the glowing geometric body, and this core structure is the source of its mass
"The light and cold are cool, but not scorching, dark, but silver... There are winds and waves outside, and the sea below seems to be higher than inside," Lucrecia said slowly while sensing the information from the phantom clone, "Now it seems that at least the shallow area of the mountain is not high, and it is moving inwards at an accelerated speed.
In her dream, she saw a shooting star, a meteor that appeared suddenly in the daytime.
Something was clearly not right... Was I still dreaming
When the smoke cleared, another "Lucretia" appeared in the car - but it was just a ghostly phantom, wearing a pale, full-length dress with a lively and gloomy face, and a translucent texture all over her body, floating eerily in the air.
He frowned slightly in his irritable thoughts.
A noisy world, numerous meteors, a dark and dead sky, and a terrifying void that overlooks the world like an eye pupil... Why did I dream of such a strange scene? What does the dream mean? !
Duncan slept in the captain's bedroom of the Lost Homeland and had a short and bizarre dream. Recently, the transcoding has been serious. To make us more motivated and update faster, please move your hands to exit the reading mode. Thank you
