After a day's rest, everyone relaxed from the dream created by the memory corridor. Illusion is an illusion after all, although life and death are on the line, no one will know what will happen tomorrow, but for some people, they do not regret knowing a completely different world, just like Cui Zuojing, he really enjoys being in the pure white Every minute in the world, he likes the thrill, the feeling of having extraordinary power.
The only person who took some time to calm down was probably Victor. In a dream, he sat on the train going home and called his wife and daughter who hadn't seen each other for more than ten years. It was also because of that phone call that he completely I'm sure I'm in a dream.
Yes, he has not seen his family for twelve years since his sudden death first came to Pure White Realm.
After coming out of the pure white land, Cui Zuojing once took Victor, who had turned into a cat, to his home. He brought the white cat to Hessenway's airport, followed Victor's guidance, and went far away. He saw his wife Karina in the distance.
The woman and his three children cried with red and swollen eyes, all dressed in black, following their trail, Cui Zuojing went to a cemetery.
On the tombstone with white flowers, there is a photo of Victor. The doctor with violet eyes suffered a heart attack and collapsed on the job. He left quietly and almost without pain.
Victor successfully escaped from the pure white world, but he failed to return to his own body like Cui Zuojing, so in the real world, he died.
Cui Zuojing took Victor back three times in eight years. His children gradually grew up, and even the youngest went to college. The woman he loved the most in his life pulled three children alone, wrinkled, fat and Fatigue dragged her footsteps. She grew old very quickly, and she no longer saw the charismatic appearance that poured out all beings when she was young.
Victor could only watch her from a distance in the corner, watching her walk out of the house alone to go to work. Karina would never know that the pure white cat she had seen downstairs by chance was her beloved husband.
He lost everything.
That time was indeed the darkest time for Victor. He was no longer even a human being. Only Cui Zuojing knew his past in the world, but fate did not abandon him completely, and he returned to The pure white world has an opportunity to change.
Lin Hangzhi played with the dice to accumulate good fortune. Beside him, Xia Qiongyun looked at the lead-grey clouds in the distance, and remained silent. At an intersection, they got off the boat, said goodbye to Cui Zuojing and Dong Zheng, and sat on the road leading to the Another block of airboats, to the Pilgrims Union, the largest trading center.
Cui Zuojing and Dong Zheng set off again and went to Heimerda's branch according to the coordinates provided by Heinrich.
In order to improve the efficiency, the team has three teams to inquire separately. Victor and Dong Linhai Wangque went to the harbor dock. The NPCs on the dock should have more unknown knowledge about the legend of the endless sea.
"Is it here?" Cui Zuojing looked at the map. The three-story building in front of him looked unremarkable, with the Heimerda's monogram carved at the door. After confirming that it was correct, Cui Zuojing took the lead to disembark and set foot on the steps in front of the door.
Living in Shuicheng is indeed a lot of inconvenience. He stretched out his hand and pulled Dong Zheng up to open it. Cui Zuojing pushed the door and walked in. Five or six meters from the front door was a small front desk. There was only a female receptionist sitting behind the counter and watching TV idly. I was a little surprised to see that someone came over.
"We came from the top of the giant tree, number 00032." Dong Zheng showed the team information, "We want to use the intelligence system."
"Oh, okay." The front desk hurriedly checked their documents, and after confirming that they were correct in the system, they instructed, "Welcome to Area VII, turn left to the end, turn right, and the second room on the left is the intelligence room. "
The two walked all the way to the room she directed. The so-called intelligence room was a room of thirty to forty square meters, divided into several compartments with baffles, and computers were placed separately for information inquiries. As a newly established organization, Heimerda's headquarters at the top of the giant tree has not developed very well, and it is already very good to build branches in other regions.
Dong Zheng doesn't pick either, just use what he has. He turned on the phone, entered his fingerprint and key, logged into Heimerda's system, and retrieved information about the Endless Sea. Cui Zuojing did not join. With the blessing of Dong Zheng's professionalism and ability, he did not need himself for this kind of thing.
He circled around the intelligence room and had nothing to observe, so he went out and looked at the rooms in the corridor one by one, and finally came to the conclusion that this was indeed a poor and silent branch.
He went back to the intelligence room and sat on the side of the chair to wait. Fifteen minutes later, Dong Zheng stood up and turned off the computer.
"How about it?"
Dong Zheng shook his head: "There isn't much useful information. As the Haima receptionist said, there is a contradiction between the forgotten effect and the existence of intelligence. Let's wait and see when others come back."
So the two walked around the branch, and there was really nothing to see. After saying goodbye to the receptionist at the front desk, they walked out of the door, stood on the steps, and used Fu Zhe's key to open the door that they had just closed.
The others hadn't come back yet. Cui Zuojing and Dong Zheng were waiting in the living room for the time being. The two sat by the fireplace and played a game of chess. Cui Zuojing was average, and it was impossible for Dong Zheng, who had a computer brain. There is a chance of winning, but Dong Zheng is not serious, the two are chatting and playing to kill time.
Lillian was cleaning the dust with a feather duster, Fu Zhe was reading in his study, and Corberus was probably staying in his room. Since the members of the Wonton Insurgents came back, if it wasn't necessary, Corberus wouldn't come out either. Meeting them, and even having meals, he solves it in the kitchen alone.
It’s just that this situation can’t continue forever. Even if Corberus can always be regarded as an invisible shadow, others can’t think that there is no such person. If possible, we should try our best to pull Corberus to own camp.
Cui Zuojing thought, he grabbed the knight chess piece in his hand, stopped Lilian who came to clean the fireplace, and asked, "Lilian, have you been in contact with Corberos a lot these days?"
"It's okay." Lillian straightened up and said, "Mr. Fu Zhe should have told him to come and ask me if he didn't understand anything. He asked me where I would go if I wanted to buy something, and these few days you were away. Here, Mr. Fu's meals are all prepared by him."
"Oh?" Cui Zuojing became interested, "What did you eat?"
"Some very valuable ingredients." Lillian was watching when Corberos borrowed the kitchen, so he recounted it in detail. Cui Zuojing understood that those should be the things that Moral Fragments like to eat, nodded, and said, "Excuse me, Lillian, when we're not here in the future, you should pay more attention to Kerberos."
Lillian: "Yes. He also surprised me when he suddenly came to the castle. Fortunately, he has not shown much malice until now."
Dong Zheng did not join the conversation because Heinrich sent a message asking him if he had gone to the branch. He still had the idea of letting Dong Zheng do his best to carry forward the VII division. Dong Zheng was speechless, so he could only give him six points to express his feelings and opinions vividly.
Three hours later, the other two groups also came back one after another. It was raining outside. Dong Linhai gave Wang Que his coat to cover the rain. His shirt was completely soaked, so he went back to his room and changed his clothes.
"By the way, call Fu Zhe down too!" Cui Zuojing instructed from downstairs.
Five minutes later, everyone gathered at the table for their first meeting in Section VII. All in all, they didn't get much useful information on this trip. They found nothing in the Heimerda branch and the trading floor. Only Wangque and Linhai heard from the workers at the dock that whenever the thick fog rose, there would be a There was a faint light, which was said to be the light on the boat of the master of nothingness. The lights will attract the sailing ships, just as the mermaid sirens seduce the crew with their songs, and when the crew see the man on the boat, they disappear without a trace like the little mermaid turns into foam in the sun.
As a result, ghost ships were discovered one after another. The safe and sound ships floated on the endless sea when they went to sea. All the goods were intact, but there was no one on board. No one remembered who got on the ship at the beginning. , the crew list is empty.
"At least we know how to determine the position." Dong Zheng said, "rent a boat, wait until the foggy day to go out to sea, and follow the direction of the light."
"Aren't we really going to disappear like other people?" Lin Hangzhi was a little worried. His unfortunate physique made him inevitably a pessimist. In other words, he rarely believed that good things would happen to him.
Cui Zuojing reassured: "With my uncle and me here, let's not say whether that person is Nainai or not. Even if not, the combination of time and the strength of the body is enough to resist Chaos."
Fu Zhe: "You can also borrow my ability with the key, which will be more secure."
The plan was set for the time being. After that, Dong Zheng went to the pier to make an appointment to rent a boat. They found a lot of families and no one was willing to accept this deal. Until finally, a fisherman was relieved and decided to rent them a fishing boat. , Originally, the fishermen refused when they heard that they were going to go out to sea in foggy days.
If Dong Zheng and the others disappeared because they saw the Void Master, the boat would turn into a ghost boat, and the fishermen would still have a chance to get the boat back.
So three days later, when the fog quietly enveloped the city in the early morning, the wonton splitter team left the castle, they came to the pier, and boarded the fishing boat, which was marinated by the fishy smell from the inside out. .
"It smells so heavy." Wang Que covered her nose and couldn't help complaining.
"Be patient, I can only rent this thing." Cui Zuojing saw a dead blackhead fish from the corner of the cabin. It was probably the fishermen who landed here when they were fishing. The smell was so wonderful, he turned around a few times to find a dustpan, scooped up the rotten fish, and threw it into the sea.
Just like the word of mouth of the fishermen, a small bean-sized light unknowingly disappeared in the sea fog, guiding the direction.
With the sound of the whistle, the double-decker fishing boat sailed out of the harbour, and was quickly drowned in the thick fog under the puzzled and pitiful gazes of the dockworkers.
