A rotating flame door suddenly expanded on the deck, and then the owner of the Lost Fleet stepped out of the door.
Tall, majestic, wrapped in spiritual fire, with eyes like torches, its existence itself seems to embody the fear in the boundless sea, and wherever its gaze goes, it seems to trigger all the flames in the world.
And behind the tall figure, another elegant woman wearing a dark purple dress, with long silver hair reaching her waist, beautiful appearance but slightly pale complexion came out. She followed closely behind Duncan, with a mysterious temperament. And elegance is like an attendant.
Lawrence felt his heart pounding and his nerves tense to the extreme. He saw Duncan walking towards him, and with every step closer to him, the unquenchable spiritual flame on his body became stronger and stronger. It wasn't until the other party stopped on the deck that he lowered his head and said, "Chip."
"Your ship is not bad." Duncan said casually, and then raised his head and looked around at this expedition ship that he had met once before, and then this fate has been entangled to this day. At the same time, he couldn't help but feel a novel feeling in his heart. Feel.
Because strictly speaking, this was the first time that his body left the Lost Home and came to another ship.
But now it seems that at least during the internal activities of the "Homeless Fleet", the Homeless Fleet will not have any problems because of his departure... Lawrence felt a strange feeling in his heart, and it was difficult for him to judge Duncan's ship. Whether the words just now were considered a compliment or not, I could only continue to lower my head in embarrassment: "Well, I hope you like it."
"Don't be so nervous, it's not the first time we've met."
Duncan nodded slightly and said: "Many years ago, I was an explorer, but unfortunately the original badge was lost in subspace.
Lawrence was stunned and hesitantly raised his head, his tense nerves relaxed slightly, and his sluggish thinking began to work again - he suddenly realized that this terrible "subspace shadow" was really telling the truth, a hundred years ago ....Duncan Abnormar was indeed a member of the Society of Explorers and one of the most famous explorers of his era.
And strictly speaking, the Explorers Association has not even "delisted" this ghost ship yet - because no one thought that a subspace shadow needs to be deregistered...
Duncan didn't pay attention to Lawrence's reaction and the confusion in his expression. After confirming that the other party had relaxed a little, he casually chatted with him in a chatty tone: "Did everything go well when you came here?"
"Smooth," Lawrence answered honestly, trying his best to make his reaction appear as normal as possible, "We set off from Frost East Port and passed through the blockade set up by the Sea Fog Fleet in the outer sea. They showed us the way... "
"Well, I told Tirian that the Sea Mist Fleet will not cause you any trouble." Duncan nodded, then raised his head and glanced at the flagpole next to him, "Is Anomaly 077 hanging on it?"
"Yes."
"What mistake did he make? Why is he hanging on the flagpole?"
Lawrence: "..." After feeling suspicious for a few seconds, he twitched his lips and said, "He took the initiative to hang there --- he wanted to use this method to return himself to the sealed state, but it seemed to be very unsuccessful. .”
Why are all the "abnormal" human figures I see so strange? Duncan muttered, turning his head to look at Alice who was following behind him and looked elegant and dignified but was actually wandering around in the world, and then pointed at the one hanging in the air. Mummy, "Come down."
As soon as he finished speaking, the mummy that was pretending to be dead a second ago immediately shook its body, fell to the deck with a "bang", and then rolled and crawled in front of Duncan, its whole body shaking slightly like the first time. Like an electrified Frankenstein: "The ship... the stern, the sailor reports to... you!"
Duncan frowned: "Are you stuttering?"
"I...I'm a sailor..."
Duncan was actually happy when he saw the other party's reaction. He didn't expect that one of the top 100 intelligent anomalies would actually be afraid of himself, Captain Duncan. Then, he turned his head and looked at the person following him suspiciously. Alice behind her looks like one of the top 100 anomalies at a glance, with the same thinking ability as humans...
Why doesn't this person know how to be afraid? She was nervous for a while on the Lost Home, and then quickly adapted to the environment. Now she can even play with the knives, pots and pans on the ship.
Alice noticed Chuan Chuan's gaze and immediately responded with a silly smile that was so brilliant that it was almost sincere.
Duncan: "..."
He suddenly felt that Alice might not adapt quickly, but simply react slowly. He guessed that after being afraid for a while at the beginning, she forgot about her fear...
At the same time, Alice also noticed the shivering mummy standing opposite. She thought hard, as if she recalled what the captain told her before departure, so she smiled on her face and took the initiative to talk to him. He said hello: "Hello, my name is Alice. I heard that you are also abnormal?" The mummy was slightly startled, looking up and down with some confusion at the "elegant woman" in front of him who was no different from an ordinary human being, but seemed to have a sense of contradiction in his movements. earth"
"The same to you?"
"Yes," Alice said happily, "I made it 099."
The sailor scratched his head in embarrassment. It was probably the first time he had dealt with another out-of-control anomaly in this way: "Um... I am Heart 077."
Alice thought for a while and looked proud: "Then I have a higher number than you!"
Duncan finally couldn't help it when he heard this: "The abnormal number is 077 from the front row to the back row in front of you."
Alice reacted for a moment, and miraculously responded: "Ah... does that mean he is better than me?"
"This is not necessarily true. The anomalies ranked within the top 100 are all extremely weird. Generally, the strength cannot be judged by a simple number. It is more likely to present different dangers under different conditions."
Duncan explained patiently, "On the sea, he should be better than you. On land, you are better than him. Alice didn't know how much she understood. She just looked at the "sailor" in front of her curiously, and then Suddenly he stretched out his hand and grabbed it in the air. The mummy instantly stood still in place, as if it even had a soul (if he had one)
words) were frozen for an instant, and then all his joints and skin began to rapidly transform into puppets.
Alice suddenly let go of her hand.
The sailor staggered back a few steps and looked at the puppet in front of him in horror: "What the hell?"
"Not Powerful"
Alice shook her head, "I don't even know how to protect myself."
"You are not allowed to grab other people's wires casually, have you forgotten?" Duncan immediately reminded him sternly upon seeing this, and then frowned, "Wait, you mean, Anomaly 077 also has a wire?"
"Yes, there are quite a few floating on his body," Alice nodded matter-of-factly, "But his threads are a bit strange - ordinary people's threads float to very high places in the sky and then gradually disappear, but his threads are It floated out and then returned to the body, as if forming a ring...
Duncan immediately frowned and looked up and down at the still shocked "Sailor", and then, there was a slight flash of green fire in Alice's eyes next to him.
The next second, Duncan also saw the "thread" of Anomaly 077 - an almost transparent white thin line extending from the skull and torso joints of the mummy, swaying in the surrounding void and then returning to his body.
Really wired. Do all thinking humanoid anomalies have this kind of "thread"? Or is this unique to Anomaly 077? What is this kind of thread that is different from ordinary humans and creates a loop in itself? Duncan's mind instantly came to mind. There were many questions, but he soon put them away for the time being, and apologized to "Sailor" seriously: "I'm sorry, Alice is not very sensible. She doesn't mean any harm, she just wants to say hello to you."
"No, no, no, don't apologize!"
The mummy almost jumped up on the spot, hurriedly waving his hands and backing up, "I'm fine, I was just startled, right? Alice? I know, I'll stay away from her in the future..." As he spoke, he whispered again.
Come on, what "worthy of working on the flagship"
Even Lawrence could hear the murmurings such as "The boss with a hot body is more powerful".
Lawrence blinked and looked aside. He didn't understand what happened just now. He just felt that the two anomalies in front of him seemed to be "communicating" and the sailor seemed to be frightened again. Then, he Thinking of something, a strange look fell on the beautiful lady with an elegant appearance: "Wait, abnormality 099... Chuan Shi, so this is..."
"That's the coffin you escorted on the ship." Duncan smiled and raised his hand to introduce.
"But now that the coffin has been assimilated by the Lost Home, the doll as its "content" has been in a state of control, just like the sailor next to you. "
When Alice heard this, she immediately stepped forward and muttered to Duncan: "ChuanChuanChuang, I'm not out of control. I'm usually very obedient..."
"Yes, yes, I didn't lose control," the mummy on the side also said quickly. "I usually obey the arrangements. Captain Lawrence asked me to go ashore to fight the cultists without hesitation..."
Lawrence listened in a daze, then looked up at the "Sailor" who was trying to express himself, and then at the "Miss Coffin Stuffing" opposite who was beautiful and elegant but seemed not to have a normal mind now.
His eyes finally fell on Duncan's boat. Suddenly, the pressure and tension that had been lingering for a long time dissipated. Lawrence felt that the relationship between himself and the "ghost boat" in front of him was much closer, and even... .A feeling of sympathy arose spontaneously.
It's like being a boat on the endless sea, but having to take care of the same disease caused by an out-of-control anomaly with a bad brain...
