Deep Sea Embers

Sleeping on the side of order, the composition and execution rules of information presented a bizarre state - Duncan thought seriously for a long time and decided to give up thinking.

Anyway, the good news now is that Leigh Nora was not knocked out by the Homeless Ship, nor was she crushed under the ship. The bad news is that she was knocked "into" the ship, and she was still dazed at this time.

This reminded Duncan of a world-famous painting:

jpg of a dog that was hit by a car on the road and ended up embedded in the front bumper and was driven onto the highway.

Duncan coughed twice and put aside the somewhat unreasonable associations in his mind. He and Alice took two steps forward together, with some apology and concern on their faces: "I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention when we sailed. Are you okay? ?"

Alice on the side lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking. At this time, she suddenly poked Duncan's arm: "Captain, I remember that the Homeless ship hit the White Oak at the beginning and then I came to your ship. Now it's my turn." Come to the Frost Queen, is this the beginning and the end? "

Duncan immediately glared: "'There is a beginning and an end' is not used in this way!" "

Le Nora seemed to have recovered a little at this time. She rubbed her dizzy and swollen head, and stood up from the bed while adapting: "It's okay, it's just that the shock was a bit big - I didn't expect the way you appeared. It goes like this: 'Shocking'. "

As she spoke, her eyes had fallen on Alice beside her. With a slightly strange and complicated look in her eyes, she carefully looked at the doll, which had almost the same appearance as hers, and the latter also turned her eyes. , looked at Le Nora seriously and curiously.

After a long time, Le Nora suddenly showed a smile and stretched out her hand to Alice: "Hello."

Alice also laughed happily, grabbed Le Nora's hand and shook it up and down: "Hello!"

"It's incredible," Le Nora secretly sighed at the strength of the doll's hands, then turned to Duncan and said, "I didn't expect that the first time Alice and I met in the real dimension would be in such a state. Although we It's hard to say whether this place is a 'reality dimension'."

As she spoke, she quietly withdrew her hand, turned around, walked to the wall on the other side of the room, and raised her hand to wave.

The wall "broken" silently in the blink of an eye, turning into a transparent curtain. Beyond the curtain was endless nothingness, and a chaotic mist floating in the nothingness.

"I have been waiting here for a long time," Leigh Nora said slowly, looking at the "scenery" outside. "During this time, I tried to sail along the edge of this thick fog, but I found nothing. There is only this kind of chaotic and nihilistic fog here - in fact, I couldn't even see the fog at the beginning, but could only feel that there was something here." It was after the last contact with you that I started to observe these Mist's ability, but that's all. "

"Don't tell me that you tried to walk deeper into the Fog," Duncan looked at Le Nora with a strange look, "This is not an ordinary recklessness. "

"Don't worry, although I'm keen on exploring now, I haven't given up my brain yet," Leigh Nora smiled and shook her head. "The dangers in deeper areas are unimaginable. Even with the protection of the Drift House, I will go in I probably won’t be able to come back alive after that.”

"Your judgment is rational," Duncan exhaled slightly, "There is a 'original data sea' that is completely undefined and unassigned." Any entity that enters will be instantly emptied into the same unassigned state - just like here. 'Borderline' status is not a concept.

Leigh Nora nodded slightly and looked at Duncan curiously: "You are here now, so what are you going to do next?"

"Confirm your conjecture first, and then do some research and testing to see if you can generate some samples in this sea of ​​raw data," Duncan said immediately, obviously he had a plan in mind, and then he looked at Han Han in front of him with some curiosity. Frost Queen, "But now I'm more curious about another thing: can you come out of this room."

Leigh Nora was stunned for a moment: "Get out of here?"

As she spoke, she looked up at the large door-shaped hole left when Duncan and Alice pushed the wall into the house just now - the shimmering "passage" still existed stably.

"You mean she gradually came to her senses and asked, "Go to the Lost Home with you? "

"This is a door that allows for stable passage, although it seems that the way it opens is a bit strange now," Duncan nodded. "I feel that it can accommodate people to come and go freely, but I am not sure whether you are the one who can leave this room." 'entity". "

"It should be possible," Leigh Nora frowned slightly, thought carefully and said, "I have stuck my hand out of the door to fish out the invisible things in this sea of ​​ashes," and I have also left the room and entered your place. "A 'palace' floating in endless nothingness" - although I am tied to be part of this 'drifting house', as long as I don't leave too far, there seems to be no problem.

"That's good." Duncan smiled when he heard this and extended his hand to Le Nora as an invitation. "Would you like to be a guest on the Lost Home?"

The Frost Queen also smiled and bowed slightly: "It's a great honor."

After passing through the cool curtain again and feeling the familiar slight dizziness and sensory dislocation, Duncan and Alice returned to the deck of the Lost Home again.

Then Duncan turned back to confirm, and saw that Le Nora had indeed successfully passed through the gate - she was standing in front of the "Gate of the Homeless", with an expression on her face that seemed to be a little confused.

Lenora opened her eyes wide. Even though she had prepared herself before, she was still in a trance for a moment after she actually walked through the door.

Now, she was standing on the deck of the Lost Homeland, surrounded by a wide "world", and everything in her field of vision looked so real and "wide".

She stepped out of her cage.

"I" Lenora's lips moved a few times, and it took a long time for her to make a sound, "I actually walked out of the room.

"Welcome to my ship, before exploring this vast sea of ​​ash, I will take you here to visit," Duncan said with a smile, opening his hands to make a welcoming gesture, "There are not many people here now, it may seem a bit deserted, but it was very lively before. "

Lenora listened in a daze, and finally adjusted her mentality at this time. With a faint smile, she stretched hard outside the cage.

"It feels so good to come out. "

She said softly, and looked back at the direction she came from. The door of the lost people that was pushed open from the door axis stood quietly in her field of vision. Duncan noticed that Le Nora suddenly stopped moving, and asked casually: "What are you thinking about?" "I'm thinking about it. "Ahem, this door is magical. Through different opening methods, it can rebuild the 'channel' in the disordered space-time relationship," Duncan immediately coughed twice, and explained with a serious and professional look, "But you only need to know two ways to open it normally. Pulling it from the door handle can lead to my captain's room. If you push it from the door axis, it is now connected to your drifting house." Le Nora blinked and couldn't help asking curiously: "What's the principle?" Duncan thought about it and continued to frown: "Because it's magical." Le Nora stopped asking immediately. Duncan stepped forward and closed the "door of the lost people" in the normal way. After restoring its normal state, he pulled its handle again and opened the door to the captain's room. He turned around and made an invitation to Lenora.

On the chart table in the captain's room, the dark wooden goat head heard the noise and immediately turned its neck to look at the figures who opened the door, and then noticed the Frost Queen walking side by side with Alice at first sight.

It obviously confirmed it, and then exclaimed: "Oh! I guess these are definitely not two Miss Alices - Captain, you have brought an extraordinary guest." "This is my first mate," Duncan raised his hand to introduce, "Its name is Sasloka, but you can just call it Goat Head." Then he pointed at Lenora and said to Goat Head: "This is the Frost Queen, I don't need to introduce it too much - don't worry about the principles and processes in the middle, anyway, she is on the ship now, and she is a guest here during this period." "Hello, Mr. First Mate, you can just call me Lenora," Lenora nodded politely, but then she was stunned for a moment, as if she vaguely realized something, "Wait, Sasloka? I seem to have forgotten this name. "It's all about my youth," Goat Head immediately shook his head reservedly, with a vicissitudes of life in his tone, "At that time I was still complete, with a body under my head, but now I am just the first mate of this ship, Captain Duncan's most loyal first mate. "

While speaking, it stretched its neck towards itself and pointed its chin at another "goat head" (the skull of dreams) on the other side of the chart table: "This is also Sasloka, my other head, but this head has some problems,

Now we can't communicate. I usually chat with it unilaterally-it's a good listener, silent and patient. The captain always complains that I talk too much and asks me to shut up, but this head won't. And I tell you, I always think that this head actually responds. When I talk to it a lot, sometimes it will move a little, but the captain always says that it's all my illusion.

"Shut up."

"Okay, Captain."

Lennora looked at this scene with a dull expression. She didn't react to what happened just now. She felt that the goat head opened its mouth and spoke for a while, and suddenly a wall of sound waves rolled towards her, and there was no punctuation in the sound waves.

The last time she felt this kind of impact was dozens of minutes ago, when it was the Lost Hometown that rolled towards her.
