Deep Sea Embers Chapter 310: Pirate island under the night
Since the eighth "No. 3 Submersible" was salvaged from the Frost Offshore and sent to Dagger Island near the city-state, that island has been set as a military restricted area by the city-state authorities, and the two adjacent routes have also been closed. It is no longer open to the public.
Of course, this has caused many people to speculate, not only the locals of Frost are speculating, but also those ship owners who were forced to stay away from Dagger Island and nearby pirates and explorers are also speculating, they are curious about what happened on that island I'm curious about what secrets the Frost authorities are hiding, and many of them are quite plausible, ranging from "researching new weapons" to "holding dangerous rituals"-but none of them are reliable.
Few people in this world know about the "Abyss Project".
"It is becoming more and more difficult for our people to collect information on Dagger Island," Aiden said to Tirian with a serious expression on the small road on the edge of the port area. Adjustment, they even monitor every inch of the coast, and diving close is no longer feasible, and the spies and internal agents we bought and controlled have recently been transferred away from key positions-it has not been exposed, but the current material delivery and personnel transfer of Dagger Island have already been completed. It was done entirely inside a special list of the authorities, and we couldn't get in."
"... Has it completely become a military restricted area?" Tirian stopped in his tracks, "Could it be that they found something from that 'No. 3 submersible? Or have they opened the hatch?"
"It's hard to say," Aiden shook his head, "but the last time we went to the island to inquire about information, we saw an order issued by the Frost Authority, which specifically mentioned that the submersible should not be opened. hatch, and any samples taken from the shell of the submersible must be put into the incinerator after the research is over-at least from this order, it can be seen that the city-state consul is still very cautious. But it has been a few days The situation before, no one knows if there will be any changes now.”
“…If you can’t get it for a long time
The conclusion of the investigation, if there are some dangerous and weird experimental accidents, the most sensible approach for the Frost authorities should be to directly put the submersible into the furnace, and stop doing any research, just like we did back then," Tirian frowned , "But they are still blocking Dagger Island... This shows that they must want to dig some secrets out of that submersible."
"...Theoretically, Frost's high-level executives should know the plan of diving into the abyss back then, at least they should also know the dangers and horrors in the deep sea."
"Knowing is one thing, understanding is another - future generations can hear the stories of their ancestors from books and dictation, but unless they experience it again, it is difficult for them to imagine the feeling of fear and powerlessness , "Tirion shook his head, "In the face of extraordinary loss of control, the greatest advantage of human beings is that they can 'forget,' and the biggest disadvantage is also the same."
Aiden looked at his captain, and after being silent for more than ten seconds, he finally spoke: "Captain, should we take some more... proactive actions?"
"More proactive action?"
"Contact the Frost authorities and warn them, or more simply... The fleet raided Dagger Island and snatched the 'No. 3 submersible,'" Aiden said bluntly, "with the current defense force of Dagger Island , it should not be able to withstand a round of strong attack by the Sea Fog Fleet."
Speaking of this, he paused, and added: "Otherwise, let those guys who don't know anything beat a distorted replica floating up from the deep sea, I really don't know when they will come up with a big Chaos, it's too worrying."
Tirian fell into a momentary thought.
After a while, he shook his head: "Even if we successfully raided Dagger Island, are you sure we can find the whereabouts of the No. 3 submersible before the main force of Frost reacts? That island is not small... Once it takes too long to search, we will face several times the city-state navy. No matter how strong the Sea Fog is, it is not invincible, let alone..."
He stopped, but the face of the Frost Queen appeared in his mind.
The next second, Tirian stopped thinking about it just in time—fortunately, another face exactly like the Frost Queen didn't emerge.
"It's nothing," he shook his head, "I still need to think about it."
"Then you need to make a decision sooner," Aiden nodded, and just
At this moment, a bell rang suddenly from the port square, and the first officer immediately raised his head to look in the direction of the sound, "Ah, it's late at night... Captain, why don't you go too The square is lively and lively? Adjusting your mood may also be beneficial to your next decision."
"I won't go," Tirian shook his head subconsciously, "I'm not interested."
"It's good to show up once in a while,"
Aiden encouraged quite enthusiastically, "Badika dancers can't be seen all the time—their dancing posture is more beautiful and agile than the black-tailed chaffinch passing through the storm." I'm not interested. This," Tirian spread his hands helplessly, "and to be honest, if I, the captain, really show up at the party, can the sailors really play around as much as they want?"
"Yes, why can't this be done,"
Aiden said casually, "You don't know the face of those guys, it's hard and thick and can regenerate..."
Tirian: "..."
But in the end, Aiden finally failed to persuade the stubborn captain, but went to the port square alone to participate in the party tonight.
After midnight, the pirate island is still noisy.
The sleepless undead have infinite energy, and there is no curfew on this island transformed and shrouded by extraordinary power. Their celebrations can last a whole day, from sunrise to sunset, and from Sunset to sunrise.
The high platform on one side of the square has been transformed into a stage.
The temporarily installed wooden walls blocked the cold wind from the coast, and the blazing braziers around the stage more or less resisted the cold of winter nights—the undead people have long been afraid of the cold and heat, but the "human guests who visited the pirate island tonight "It still needs careful protection.
Teenage girls from Cold Harbor dance enthusiastically between the campfire and the cold wind.
Skirts are flying, dancers are spinning, bonfires are bursting and jumping in the night, the sound of waves in the distance is endless, terrifying undead are clamoring in the audience, and the fog-shrouded pirate island has a noisy night that is rare in this world.
Tirion stopped at an inconspicuous corner next to the square, and looked up towards the stage.
He didn't come to the party, but he was going back to his residence, and he just passed the square.
The weekly gathering of sailors was a "custom" in the Frost Navy back then, and even after leaving Frost, this habit has been retained in the Sea Fog Fleet.
In half a century, many things have changed, but many things have not changed.
Tirian gradually smiled when he saw the noisy appearance of those old subordinates in the square, but suddenly, his smile restrained.
He looked at the stage not far away, looked at the dancers on the stage, and saw that they were dancing enthusiastically, jumping like a fright, but their eyes were a little dull and numb.
They should have drunk a potion prepared by mixing various herbs and a little supernatural catalyst in advance—not a rare thing.
The power of the medicine can make them resist the cold to a certain extent, but it also affects their cognition and thinking at the same time.
This avoids their fears, leaving only the dance instinct in their minds for a while.
Obviously, the masters of these dancers don't want their tools to destroy the peaceful relationship between themselves and the Lengliehai pirate leader because of fear.
Tirion smashed his tongue.
This is actually very common. The "Leng Lie Hai big men" who dare to do business among pirates and even send people to pirate islands have similar methods. After all, neither the church nor the authorities will get involved in their gray business~ IndoMTL.com~Of course ordinary people can only think of some "remedies" to fight against the shadows and horrors of the boundless sea. The life of pirates and "risk speculators" has never been as romantic as it is written in adventure stories. of.
In a sense, pouring the potion is also a protection for the dancers.
Tirion just felt a little disappointed—he thought that "Scimitar Martin" would improve after so many years, but he didn't expect that the other party was still using the old tricks of ten years ago to run his "Cold Sea Entertainment Industry".
He shook his head and turned to leave.
But just as he was about to leave, a
A slight crackling sound of flames suddenly reached his ears.
The strange yet somewhat familiar sound of flames made Tirian's heart tense for an instant, and he almost lost his footing. Then, he stared at the direction where the sound came from.
A faint green flame was jumping on the frozen wall next to it, and with the spread of light and shadow, the center of the ice surface was instantly dark like night, and a tall and majestic figure stepped out of it.
"Good evening, Tirian," the figure said, "I hope I haven't disturbed your rest."
Tirian stared at the figure that emerged from the ice, and held back for a long time before trying to maintain a normal expression to respond to the other party's greeting: "Good evening, father. Why did you suddenly..."
"I have some things to discuss with you, and by the way, let's see how you are doing recently," Duncan said casually, "What are you doing?"
As he spoke, he raised his head, looked over Tirian's shoulder, and saw the stage in the distance. And the young girls who are still wearing only thin dresses in the cold wind.
“…”
"Not what you think!"
