Deep Sea Embers Chapter 351: Lock City
Latest URL: For the protectors of Frost, tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
The dark clouds shrouded in Dagger Island are still gathering above the head, and the wreckage of the "Petrel" that returned strangely is still hovering on the sea outside the port, and at this juncture, the sea fog fleet haunted by countless terrible legends came again. near the city-state.
The undead fleet carrying the curse has completed its assembly, and it stays silently on the edge of the sea. No one knows their reason for coming, and no one knows what they want to do next.
The defense commander of the port area, Liszt, only rested for less than an hour at midnight, and then reappeared in the command office. A confidential secretary came from the hall.
Wearing a slim-fitting blue coat and gold-rimmed glasses, Mr. Secretary, who seemed to be in his early thirties, immediately stood up from his chair when he saw Liszt, with faint sweat on his forehead: "Mr. Colonel, The Consul wants to know the latest and most accurate information—is there any possibility of the Sea Fog Fleet launching an attack?"
"If the Consul only wants this answer, it is yes, every day for the past half century," Liszt took out the refreshing essential oil, relying on the strong medicinal effect of the essential oil to boost his spirits, and at the same time looked at the machine Ask the secretary to take a look, "The Sea Fog Fleet didn't just exist today—it has always been there. There has never been a peace agreement between Frost and that 'Steel Vice Admiral.'
The mood of the commander-in-chief was obviously not very good, and the confidential secretary also realized that his question was meaningless, so he immediately changed the phrase: "How prepared are we?"
"All coastal defense guns are in combat configuration, and the fleet led by General Galton is building an interception zone on the northern and northwest flanks of the Fog Fleet. A brave rear admiral, Frost Navy is still ready to protect the city-state," Liszt said solemnly, "My superiors should have reported more detailed information to the city hall."
While speaking, he let his eyes pass over the confidential secretary in front of him, and landed on several subordinates not far away: "What's the situation with the Sea Fog Fleet now? Are there any abnormal movements?"
A commander stood up immediately: "Yes, sir, something is wrong, you should take a look at this."
When Liszt heard this, his brows frowned slightly. He walked quickly to the long table in the center of the room, and came to a piece of information that had just been sent here.
"What is this?"
Looking at the document full of marks and symbols in front of him, the commander of the port area was a little astonished.
"It's the light signal," said the junior commander who spoke before, "the light signal from the Seafog."
Liszt's expression was a little dull, and the effect of the refreshing essential oil seemed to be a little bit useless suddenly. Looking at the dazzling pause marks and the messy annotations beside him, he felt a little dizzy, and it took a long time before he muttered : "What the hell... The Fog Fleet seems to be using a very new light signal? Or is it using some kind of classical code to transmit information?"
He suddenly raised his head and looked at his subordinates: "Where is the military advisor?"
"They are studying these things in the next room, and there are several signal scientists and cryptography experts who have just been summoned, and there are also several experts who study classical naval history and the phenomenon of undead people on the way."
Liszt pursed his lips, stared at those messy symbols for a few seconds, and then raised his head to look at the worried confidential secretary.
"Nobody wants to sleep tonight."
"I think so, Mr. Colonel."
Duncan slept well last night.
Although his main body does not need sleep most of the time, proper rest can still help him maintain sufficient energy and reduce the burden of controlling multiple bodies at the same time - although for him, this A little burden doesn't really matter much.
But he likes to maintain this habit of working and resting like a normal human being.
The snow outside the window has stopped, at least for the time being. The clear sky that can last for no time is covering the city, and the vision 001 is coming from the edge of the city
Yuan gradually climbed towards the high point of the sky, and on the edge of the brilliant sun, the faint golden glow of the double runes appeared radiant.
The missing piece of the rune ring is still there and visible to the naked eye.
Standing in front of the window, Duncan stared at the sun wheel rune ring missing a small piece for a few seconds, then retracted his gaze and moved his shoulders.
He came to the first floor.
Alice has already prepared breakfast. Although the simple toast, fried eggs and vegetable rolls are not rich, it can be seen that Miss Doll's craftsmanship is gradually improving. Vanna and Morris are Sitting at the table to eat, they stood up when they saw Duncan appear.
"You eat what you eat, don't pay attention to me." Duncan waved to them.
Breakfast is good, but unfortunately he is not blessed with this current body.
Although they are all "temporary bodies", the body he is currently using is actually completely different from the body in the Prand antique shop. Although Prand's body was also taken over after death, but Due to the slight damage and timely takeover, the current state is actually no different from a living person, but his body in Frost...has lost most of its internal functions.
This is more like a corpse driven by a mysterious force. In nature, it is even closer to a "corpse" than those undead under Tirian.
Duncan himself couldn't tell what the reason behind this was, but there were so many weird things in this world, and he had already seen them through.
The evil door is the evil door, anyway, I am the biggest evil door in this world.
"There is a new newspaper by the sofa," said Morris at the dining table, "you can take a look, there are news you are interested in."
"Oh?" Duncan stepped over to the sofa and saw the morning newspaper that had just been delivered in the morning—the newspaper still exuded a slight smell of ink, and several newspapers were stacked neatly. He picked up those newspapers , while sitting down on the sofa, he opened it casually, and quickly found the news content Morris mentioned.
Alice walked over with a rattling sound, poked her head out from behind the sofa and looked curiously at the newspaper in Duncan's hand: "What is the title on it——"
"click"
A chubby head fell on Duncan's newspaper, and rolled down the newspaper onto his arm.
Head rolled over, Alice faced Duncan face to face, eyes blinked innocently: "Save.....save.....save..."
"Can you improve your memory?" Duncan sighed, picked up Alice's head almost resignedly, and tidied up the golden wig she wore outside and fixed with a rope hoop and the silver hair inside. He raised his hand and pressed the beautiful head back on the goth doll's neck, "Also, Agou can read newspapers, you can't even understand the headline?"
Alice frantically straightened her head while muttering embarrassingly: "Actually, there are only four or five words that I can't understand..."
Duncan glared at her immediately: "The title has eight words in total!"
Illiterate doll: "...hehe.
"It's a warning notice from the city hall," Duncan sighed, feeling that it would be physically and mentally exhausting to be more real with this idiot, so he pointed to the words in the newspaper and read them to Ellie one by one Silk listened, "I would like to remind the citizens to go out less - the following content is to tell the residents of Frost to stay away from the coastal area in the near future, reduce gatherings on public roads, be ready to cooperate with the inspection by the sheriff or guards at any time, and increase the curfew level. Now No one is allowed to leave the house at night, except for church personnel and those who hold night-time permits for special industries.”
Alice walked around from the sofa and sat down next to Duncan. While curiously looking at the words in the newspaper, Alice turned her head following Duncan's fingers. After reading it, she raised her head curiously: "What do you mean?" ?”
"It means that the pressure from Tirian is in place," Duncan said lightly, "if there is no accident, Frost's external traffic will be blocked, so we don't have to worry about the pollution of this city-state spilling over. The Hiding Annihilation Cultists will no longer be able to communicate with the outside world. On the other hand, the report letter I sent seems to have stimulated the Cultists.
Concerning ~IndoMTL.com~ Higher curfew levels and strict bans on passing means stricter investigation of heresy - more Oblivion Cultists will show their feet. "
"Then... the matter is settled?" Alice opened her eyes wide in surprise, "Will all the bad guys be arrested?"
"How could it be that simple?" Duncan shrugged, "Catching a few Annihilation Cultists is just the beginning, but as more and more Annihilation Cultists are arrested, the way they build connections with the deep sea may be exposed At this time, the problem will be truly dug out.”
As he spoke, he folded the newspaper and put it aside.
He has skimmed through the rest of the content above, and there is nothing worth paying attention to.
"Then... what shall we do next?" Alice asked from the side.
"Since the Frost authorities are busy, let's go out for a walk," Duncan stood up and looked in the direction of the restaurant. Hello."
