"No offense." The figure spoke, and almost at the same time as the figure spoke, Shirley suddenly heard something coming from somewhere.
"Boom" - that was an illusory roar that did not exist in this dream or in this memory. It exploded directly in my mind, and in this roar, there was a sound coming from a distance. The burning flames and the frantic shouting of the crowd disappeared instantly.
The whole world suddenly became extremely silent. Q8 The next second, Shirley found that her body had changed - she had returned to her seventeen-year-old appearance, and her body was no longer the familiar nightgown in her memory, but the black skirt she usually wore. She didn't know when the arm that had been devoured by the deep hound returned to its original state - a dark chain extended from her arm. At the end of the chain, Agou seemed to be sleeping, lying quietly in the corner of the room, with a faint blood in her eyes. The light flickers on and off.
Shirley sat up all of a sudden, looking at the figure sitting on the bed in shock and nervousness. She didn't know who this figure was, but she knew that there was a powerful existence that directly penetrated the deep curse and invaded her dream.
Even her
Even the "master of the dream" cannot detect the other party in advance, which shows that the intruder is already a being that is too powerful to contend with.
"You...who are you? I" Duncan stood up slowly. In this world of consciousness, he showed his actions
"Captain Duncan's" original posture and extremely oppressive height made Shirley subconsciously take another half step back.
"You have never seen me like this. This reaction is normal," Duncan said in a deep voice.
"I noticed you were having a nightmare, so I came over to take a look."
"I'm aware of it... come and take a look..." Shirley blinked in confusion, and finally came to her senses.
"Wait, you are..."
"Let's get to know each other again, I'm Duncan," the gloomy and majestic man smiled.
"Duncan Abnomar." He said his name, because he was not worried that Shirley would have the courage to tell the matter - even if she really lost her head, that mysterious hound who is quite aware of current affairs It will also make her keep this matter in her stomach forever.
"Duncan...Mr. Duncan? Are you Mr. Duncan?!" Shirley's eyes widened in shock, and a feeling of heart palpitations quietly filled her heart, but then she was a little confused.
"But isn't your name Duncan Strain? What is Abu Nomar?" Duncan:
"...?" The girl's reaction suddenly made him confused. He was stunned for two seconds before speaking with a strange expression:
"You...haven't heard of this name?" Shirley thought for a moment and shook her head honestly:
"No." Then she reacted again, with a look of fear on her face:
"Should I...have heard of this name?" Duncan suddenly realized that this girl really had never heard of it.
The name of "The Expanse Moving Natural Disaster", her reaction cannot be faked. It seems that no matter how powerful Captain Duncan's reputation is, it can't stop some people from having limited knowledge, but this really makes him a little discouraged, and I couldn't help but ask:
"...Are you illiterate?" Unexpectedly, Shirley actually lowered her head and remained silent.
"Forget it, it's not important." Duncan immediately ended the current topic as soon as he saw the other party's reaction. Then his eyes slowly swept across the small room. By this time, the noise and fire on the street outside had calmed down. , as if a farce ended hastily, leaving only a dark red chaotic light filling the window, Duncan's eyes fell on Shirley, his expression was calm,
"This is what you experienced back then, right?" Shirley still lowered her head:
"…Um."
"...I didn't intend to pry, but I noticed your secret when I entered here," Duncan said sincerely.
"Sorry." Shirley was stunned. She had no idea that this terrifying existence like an evil god was actually apologizing to her. The confusion in her mind quickly turned into cold sweats. She hurriedly took two steps back:
"No...no, it doesn't matter, how can you apologize to me..."
"In any case, it is not polite to pry into a lady's dreams - even a 'little' lady like you," Duncan showed a smile, and then his eyes fell on the dark hound,
"When will it wake up?"
"I don't know..." Shirley seemed a little at a loss. She looked at Agou who was sleeping.
"This nightmare has never changed like this before. I don't..." She was just halfway through her words when she heard a slight sound of bone fragments colliding from Agou's body, followed by the sound that was still sleeping a second ago. Agou shook his head slightly, the red light in his empty eyes gradually brightened, and the next second, this terrifying giant dog suddenly stood up.
Perhaps because the nightmare from the previous moment still had some lingering influence, Shirley subconsciously took half a step back, but soon she realized what she was doing and stepped towards Agou.
"Shirley..." Agou finally woke up gradually. He suddenly noticed the surrounding room, and his eyes suddenly fell on Shirley's arm in the next second, with a hint of panic in his tone.
"I……"
"It's okay, it's just a nightmare," Shirley laughed and stepped forward to hug Agou's huge and ugly skeletal head.
"You had a nightmare too."
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Agou just kept repeating in a low voice, and the chain connecting him and Shirley made a clattering sound.
"Does it hurt? Does it hurt a lot..." Shirley turned her head awkwardly:
"Stop being pretentious...there are outsiders watching..."
"An outsider?" Agou was stunned for a moment, and then he noticed that there was another person in the room. Then, he saw clearly Duncan's appearance, the captain's uniform on him, and the gloomy and majestic face. , and more importantly, in its field of vision, it can also see the cascading green flames floating behind Duncan.
"F*ck!" Agou suddenly exclaimed, and in the next second he reflexively pulled Shirley behind him. He blocked Shirley and Duncan with his huge body, and the bones all over his body were bumping and shaking. , but still tried to look in the direction of Duncan,
"Is it...the ghost captain!?" Duncan raised his eyebrows when he saw the other party's reaction:
"Shirley doesn't recognize this gesture of mine, but you do?"
"Agou?" Shirley also reacted immediately,
"Agou, have you seen him?"
"Have you ever seen him before? Almost all the deep demons who have seen him have been sent into the subspace at this time!" The black smoke in Agou's body was rising and shrinking, and his tone was frightened.
"The moving natural disaster in the boundless sea...why is he in your dream?!"
"The Boundless Sea is moving natural disasters?" Shirley was still covered,
"Why didn't I hear you tell me this..."
"Nonsense! There are so many things I haven't told you - there are so many natural disasters in the world that I can tell you about them all. And under normal circumstances, who would have thought that you would meet a ghost captain on land!" Shirley listened blankly. She seemed to want to ask something else, but Duncan suddenly broke the silence - he quietly stared at the mysterious hound, which was facing a formidable enemy:
"I thought only people in the real world were so afraid of me, but I didn't expect that I also had such a reputation among the deep demons." Agou took half a step back, maintaining a concentrated defensive posture as he spoke:
"You have underestimated yourself - your evil reputation is known to everyone from the deep sea to the real world. Even the heartless demons of the deep sea know how to follow their instincts to avoid your lost home... To be honest, that is The deep demons have no heart, otherwise I am afraid that even the horror demons on the ashes floating soil will have to tattoo you on their backs to embolden their courage..." Duncan thought for a while, suspecting that the other party was actually complimenting him - using what it thought was a compliment. .
At the same time, Shirley also heard Agou's whisper - in the spiritual connection established through the chain, only she could hear this whisper:
"Shirley, I will find a way to entangle this shadow in a while. You try to wake up. The other person is probably just a mental projection. I can entangle him for a while. As long as you can escape from this dream, the other party will not be able to catch up..." "Shirley didn't react at once - or maybe she and Agou were not thinking on the same frequency at all:
"Ah...then what?" Agou said in a hurry:
"Then you quickly go to the next room and ask for help from that big shot - just say that you have been entangled by the lost home number, be more sincere, or even actively ask to be the other person's dependent for protection. At this time, you can't take into account the danger or not. Well, compared to being torn apart by the Lost Home and dragged into subspace and becoming a descendant of a subspace evil god, at least the latter is still barely 'alive'..." Shirley had no reaction.
"Shirley?" Agou became more and more anxious.
"Shirley, don't be in a daze! Take advantage of this dream being disturbed and find a way to wake up! Letting the big boss take action against the big boss is our only option..." Halfway through Agou's words, Shirley finally gave him a mental connection. It responded:
"Agou...the two big guys you mentioned seem to be the same person..." Agou:
"...?" Conversation in spiritual connection only takes a moment. The Deep Hound raised its head slightly dully.
In its field of vision, the ghost captain who was in charge of the spiritual fire just looked here quietly, showing a smile as cold and dark as the subspace. ,
