"Start with what?" Austin was suddenly scared for no reason.
"Don't worry, can I still eat you? Why are you so cowardly?" Mariano mocked mercilessly.
After saying this, Austin felt dizzy and his vision went dark.
The familiar deep sea is much more "normal" this time than last time. The five-eyed evil god was lifeless, with only the middle eye open.
"Outstanding contribution, you will receive a special reward." A dull voice came from his mouth, which made Austin confused, and the question marks on his face were about to materialize.
"What?"
"WTF?"
Of course, the Five-Eyed Evil God would not answer his question. Bubbles popped up like before, waiting for Austin to choose.
Although he was very confused, but in the spirit of a child who has come and died, and who is older than the New Year, Austin still reached out and touched a smaller bubble.
Snapped--
The bubble burst, and Austin returned to reality. He was now pointing his right hand at the ceiling, while Lysa and a young man were standing aside and watching him.
"Ah, you're awake." Lysa exclaimed and patted her chest, "You are seriously injured. I even doubt that you are about to return to the arms of Poseidon."
Without giving Austin a chance to speak, she pointed to the young man beside her and continued: "His name is Lavery, Lavery Jonson, and he is an adventurer."
Austin moved his eyes slightly and looked at the king's illegitimate son.
Most of the royal family of Dofrela Kingdom have brown hair and blue eyes. The man in front of him also inherited this feature. His long brown hair was tied into a ponytail with a black cloth band. His right eye was a clear lake blue, and his left eye was Somewhat pale, the lines on his face are as tough as a knife and an axe, and he looks like a cold tough guy at first glance.
This guy was tall and felt very oppressive standing next to the bed. He felt at least as big as two Lesa, and overall he looked like a statue of a god.
"Hello." He stretched out his right hand, and after a moment of hesitation, he held it with Austin's hand pointing at the ceiling.
Austin's mouth twitched, and he was so embarrassed that he immediately wanted to fight the accordion player Kaka for another three hundred rounds.
"Where am I now?" Austin asked, enduring the severe pain and putting his hand back.
"We are now temporarily docked at Gargoyle Atoll. The August Lion was severely damaged, but your first mate was very smart. He immediately stayed away from the battlefield and called for support when the battle occurred. They should have been rescued by the Navy by now. Let’s go.”
"What about me?"
"You are on my ship. There is no other way. I can't stay there and wait for the navy to catch me." Lysa shrugged, "By the way, your boatswain Maffei and ship's doctor Henry were also fished out by us. I haven’t woken up yet, so I’ve brought God’s Favored Ones with healing abilities, and they’ll be able to recover just like you soon.”
Austin cursed in his mind. If she hadn't been so crazy that she had to come to such a ghost place, his crew wouldn't have suffered heavy losses.
"You must be very angry now. When the matter is over, I will give an additional pension to the crew members who died in the battle in the name of the Poseidon Church. And this action is not for me, but for the great Poseidon. I believe that as a believer of Poseidon They must be ready to sacrifice themselves at any time." After saying that, Lysa bowed, and Revry next to her also followed.
It is true that most of the soldiers of the Royal Navy of the Kingdom of Meletni believe in Poseidon, and they have indeed sworn to dedicate everything they have to Him, but after hearing these words, Austin is now filled with panic.
"What you'd better say is true." Austin finally spat out a few words from his mouth coldly.
Lesa became serious, put her right hand on her chest and said, "In the name of Poseidon."
"You didn't wake up before, and many of the healing abilities were not able to be used at full capacity. I'm going to call them over now, and we can continue to complete the remaining work tomorrow."
According to legend, Gargoyle Atoll is actually a sunken island, and there should be a larger part beneath the sea.
This is also true. The famous geographer Carl Liddo once conducted a field investigation of the Gargoyle Atoll when writing his book "Marine Landforms". He used a first-generation diving suit to dive into the sea and map the subsurface part of the Gargoyle Atoll. general topography.
Strictly speaking, Lysa's destination for this trip is underwater in Gargoyle Atoll.
Austin stood on the black gravel beach, staring into the dark water. Although it was noon at this time, the sea around the Gargoyle Atoll was still pitch black.
"Mariannuo, what should we do next?"
Benjamin's voyage diary had not been updated, and Lysa had not specified what she was going to do. Austin thought it would be better to ask Mariano before going into the water.
"We weren't underwater and I didn't know what Lysa was going to do."
Austin sighed. If he hadn't really wanted to see Benjamin himself on the Ansha Prince, he would have just patted his ass and left.
"It's almost time, put this on and we're ready to go." Lysa patted Austin's shoulder from behind and pointed to the gray iron-colored armor-like diving suit in the box next to her.
"This is the latest product that combines alchemy technology and magical crystals. Wearing it can move within a hundred meters underwater for two hours." Lysa's crew said while helping Austin put on the diving suit.
"Where are my people? Aren't Maffei and Henry going together?" Austin looked at Lysa. He didn't see these two people on the beach.
"They have just recovered, and unlike you, they are not burdened with the favor of the Poseidon. They cannot bear it."
"You guys! Do you want to use them as hostages to threaten me?" Austin pushed away the helmet handed by the sailor and shouted angrily.
"Of course not." Lysa had already put on the mask, and Austin couldn't see her expression.
Austin wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Lysa: "If you really want to say that, aren't you the real hostage, Austin?"
Lysa leaned close to his ear and whispered: "You have obviously become a dependent of the evil god. While you are wary of the Poseidon Church, you are also unwilling to give up my life-saving straw. Aren't you the hostage who is being held by others?"
Austin's expression changed drastically, he took half a step back and looked at Lysa in shock.
"While fighting the investigation of Poseidon Church, you are getting closer to me who has converted to Poseidon. Austin, it is not the fate of the military department or your friendship with me that brings you here." Lysa tilted her head slightly, "My little When you realize something, you will know that the only one who can really make you take action is yourself.”
After saying that, she put on her helmet and walked to a cleared space not far away.
Austin's expression kept changing. He froze on the spot for a while, then grabbed his helmet and followed.
"After entering the water, please follow me closely and don't fall behind. Also, please remember the following points." Standing in the sea water, the sturdy Ravery looked at Austin, who was the last one to arrive, and then said, "Remember, There are a total of five of us going down this time, four men and one woman, namely I, Rayvery Jonson, Lysa Stuart, Austin Doug, Gene Gomez and Pierce Grey."
Austin turned to look at the remaining two people. They were both wearing helmets and couldn't see their faces. He could only see that one was fat and the other was thin.
"Before entering the water, be sure to reset the timer on the diving suit to zero. Due to limited oxygen, we can only be active underwater for a maximum of two hours. This operation will take about an hour and a half." Ravery raised his right arm and said to everyone The person showed the device on his right hand, "Next to the timer is the magic crystal slot. One piece of magic crystal is loaded at a time. Power and lighting depend on it. Each person is equipped with two pieces. Be sure to replace them in time."
"Finally, the right arm is equipped with a pop-up blade, which can be fired out in an emergency. There are also two blades for each person."
"If you have any questions, ask them. If you don't have any, let's go."
Although he has become a navy and chatted so much with the Five-Eyed Evil God in the deep sea, Austin still has a fear of going into the sea. There are too many dangers and unknowns in the sea, which is definitely not something that a mortal can contend with.
It was pitch black and nothing could be seen. Even if the lighting was turned on, it could only illuminate about five meters ahead.
The five people entered the water along a slope and walked slowly downward. The surroundings were pitch black and no living creatures could be seen. They could only hear the faint sound of iron boots on the stones.
After walking in the darkness for about fifteen minutes, a huge silhouette appeared in front of me, as if there was an undersea mountain peak standing in front of me.
As they advanced, the outline of the mountain became clearer and clearer, and everyone seemed to be descending from one mountain to the foot of another.
Lavery, who was walking at the front, stopped. The mountain wall was already in front of him. He groped with his hands on it, as if looking for a switch.
"What's down here?" Austin asked Mariano.
“I don’t know, I’ve never been here, and I’ve never heard of it.”
While the two were talking, Lavery seemed to have found the switch. He turned back and gave Lesa a thumbs up, and then pressed it.
There was no roar or vibration. It was quiet. A door that could probably fit two people through side by side opened on the mountain wall.
Revery turned around and waved, and Gene, who was following him, nodded and walked in first, and his figure quickly disappeared into the darkness.
Austin clenched his fist and followed. When passing by Lavery, the latter handed him a magic crystal.
Just as Austin was wondering, a force suddenly came from behind him and pushed him in directly.
The darkness seemed to be a thin membrane, and when Austin passed through it, he felt something sweep across his body, just like the first time he took the Poseidon Church's carriage.
Is this a creation of Poseidon?
After passing through the black film, there was a deep corridor with no end. The four people in front were waiting in place. They continued to move forward after seeing Austin come in.
Reminding himself of the illusion created by accordion player Kaka for no reason, Austin subconsciously reached out and touched the wall.
Soft.
Austin's hair suddenly stood on end, he stopped and began to retreat slowly.
The four people in front seemed to hear the movement, and they all turned back to look at Austin.
"Doug, wake up, something is seriously wrong."
