Chapter 95 Approaching the Abyss
255
"July 12th..."

Richard picked up his pen, thought about it, and put it down again.

He raised his head slightly, looked quietly at Alger Wilson who was standing in front of him without saying a word, and greeted him with a smile: "Good afternoon, Captain, it's very cool today. I thought you would sleep a little longer before getting up Woolen cloth."

"...noon on December 12rd?"

Alger spoke hoarsely. He didn't look at the dark sky or the black-red sea, but stared intently at the calm researcher.The crew members who were tied to the masts and railings sometimes laughed wildly, and sometimes roared loudly in a language that no one could understand. The sharp or low tones were not at all like what humans could make, as if Their throats and vocal cords are no longer human organs, but dwellings for demons and the like.

"What the hell is this place..."

Richard smiled gently: "Please rest assured, the spirituality here will not completely mutate you. Maybe there will be some harmless mental problems. I will treat them and let you go back safely."

Alger, with a gloomy complexion and a haggard look, was dazed for a moment after hearing "go back safely". He looked at Richard Ernst, and a certain voice sounded in his heart again, burning with some evil thoughts: During the two civil strife , Their food has been consumed, and from then on everyone looks at each other not purely, but as enemies and hunters.The ensuing desperation and anger flowed silently in this ghost ship like a black mist visible to the naked eye, and everyone was soaked in it.

So the struggle broke out without any reason, and the crew members vented their repressed anger and malice to their heart's content, regardless of whether they were colleagues or friends.Human morality seems to be mud underfoot, completely out of control from the very beginning.Alger almost killed his three crew members by mistake, and was almost attacked by all the other people. Just when they were about to die together in the crazy and short-lived infighting, Richard Ernst made a sudden move, with a thunderbolt Suppressing the internal strife who put on with ordinary means, suppressing their ego and malice with some kind of extraordinary ability, and then tied them all up with ropes.

"Please wait a moment, everyone! This is not the time to fight, and I will not control the ghost ship to return."

There is no food left.Will die anyway.Fortunately, the sea is full of dark red flesh and blood.But there is still a lot of fresh meat on board.

But this "Histine Ernst" remained calm and self-reliant in this environment, and there must be a way to go back alive... In order to survive, he must be arrested...Forcing him to tell himself the way to stay awake... I want to leave... I'm going to die anyway...

Alger didn't think there was any problem with his thinking.

He licked his lips, and slowly licked away the chapped blood on his lips. He didn't know that the fierce and bloodthirsty eyes in his eyes at this time were comparable to the legendary "Admiral of Blood" who killed innocent people indiscriminately.

"Captain Wilson, I have always wanted to ask you a question."

Richard turned a blind eye to Alger's uncontrollable malice, moved aside kindly, patted the vacant space, and said with a nonchalant smile: "When you find out that I am a member of the Ernst family, immediately Changed attitude, why is that?"

"Have you met the rest of my family?"

Alger's eyes were in a trance again, the spirit of the angel and the malice permeated by the sea of ​​blood saw in his mind, sometimes leaving a flash of clarity, but most of the time he was still covered and controlled by the dark malice.Richard's words were like a hand gently wiping the foggy frosted glass. It was still chaotic, but it also ushered in a moment of sobriety.

"I haven't seen you..." Alger didn't choose to sit down in the end, he took two steps back, the shouting voice in his mind made him stay away from the young man in front of him, he was afraid, and he stopped every word very slowly Said, "I only ate a meal in your workhouse."

"...before starving to death."

"So it is. Thank you, Mr. Alger. I am very glad that you are willing to share these things with me."

Richard finished writing today's diary, closed this small book that seemed to never be used up, and put it in the pocket of his thin windbreaker.He stood up, walked steadily to the edge of the railing, and looked down at the slowly surging sea of ​​blood, and the black flesh and blood spreading upward from the bottom of the boat little by little.However, the entire Youlan Avenger is under His spiritual protection, and the flesh and blood only float on the surface, and have not really eroded the ghost ship itself.

He held the railing with both hands, closed his eyes, and felt it quietly.

A loud, dull, slow heartbeat.

Distant, the sound of blood flowing slowly.

It was as noisy as insects, the sound of flesh and blood repairing itself.

256
"In the second era, the ancient sun god was born, fought against the ancient gods, regained power, slaughtered dragons, destroyed phoenixes, drove back giants and elves, and protected human cities. From this, the fire of civilization began to shine in the world .”

The teacher was clearly born in the fourth era, but he knew all about those ancient and long-standing eras that didn't even have a chronology. He could even clearly describe the last human civilization.Crazy and rational, wise but unspeakable, indifferent and loving life, which god is he...

"The demon king Fabuti fled to the abyss. The exact date is untraceable. The overall migration of a race and believers should take a long time. It cannot be ruled out that Fabuti will directly throw the entire city-state into the spirit world like the "Phoenix" ...Since then, demons have gradually disappeared from the earth, and only a few believers remain.And later, there was a saying that the abyss was polluted. It is said that even demons cannot survive there. "

Richard closed his eyes and muttered to himself in a voice only he could hear.For a moment, he opened his eyes, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"It is said that Sequence 0 of the Devil Path is "Abyss". "

"But the abyss has always only appeared as a specific area name in myths and legends."

The Youlan Avenger sailed quietly, everything fell silent.Under Richard's suggestion, all the crew members had passed out at this time, and there was no wind, but the thick black clouds in the sky slowly dispersed.Obviously the boat was moving, but there were no waves on the sea, as if it was sliding on the marble, leaving long marks behind it that were scratched by a knife.He obviously has no eyes, but after seeing the pale and cold sun, Richard naturally had the feeling of "looking at each other" in his mind.

The Temperance Angel frowned.

Richard obviously felt that a small part of his spirituality had been polluted, the body was the cage of the mind, and the world was the cage of the body.The malice of the adjacent pathway whispered in his mind, tempting him to open his own cage with his own hands.He saw the old country that was destroyed in ashes, the playmates trampled to death by iron hooves, the mother who starved to death, the neighbor and sister whom he had never seen since he was taken away at the age of nine, the comrades who died, and those who were buried in his heart for hundreds of years. Forget the hate and sorrow.

Those who are suppressed must be released, and those who are imprisoned will eventually escape. Richard feels these temptations with nostalgia, and he is familiar with suppressing them to the corner of his mind.

"So this is ah."

There are mountains of corpses piled up on the sea, and the gaps between the high and curved ribs are the channels for ships to sail, and the broken bones and carrion are like reefs.The not-so-small three-masted sailing vessel was as long as two knuckles of a severed hand, and its dark spine with several branches was buried under the water, shadowy, like a devil's claw waiting for an opportunity.The bleeding waterfall on the cliff rushes into the black-red sea.The spirituality concentration of the demons in front of them is frighteningly high, and they will probably go crazy just by looking at them in the middle and low sequences. Even demigod-level demons will lose their minds if they stay here for a long time, leaving only their instincts.

Farther away, there is a deep haze, which is the entrance of the legendary abyss.

The sky and the earth are dark, but His eyes are shining brightly, like clear amber under the direct sunlight.Richard Ernst stepped on the railing, stood firmly on it, and showed surprise to the black sky and red sea.

"This is the demon king, the dark side of the universe, Farbouti!"

"This is the 'Abyss'! "

"The devil king and the abyss are compatible, and they are one with each other. Flesh and flesh are mountains and valleys, and blood is oceans and rivers. Therefore, when your spirit is in trouble, the abyss becomes a jeopardy where even demons cannot survive."

He smiled happily, then looked up at the pale sun in the sky, and made a gesture of pointing downward: "However, compared with Teacher, your seduction skills are really far behind! You can only see the surface, you can see it." The most obvious negative emotions cannot understand the nature of hatred and pain."

"You think I will be desperate and angry because of the pain, but you don't know what the root of my pain is!"

If it's a teacher, He should... Well, the teacher won't be bored to sway me, because I will never listen.

Alright, that's it, I can't go any further, just tell the teacher the truth about the situation here... Richard took out his little notebook and started writing, and drew a simple road map by the way.In fact, it is the best way to take some blood or meat out of the abyss directly. Establishing a mystical connection directly can avoid getting lost, but the pollution in it is probably enough to kill all the people on this boat. If you really take it out, it is estimated that Ordinary people who will die all the way.The teacher may not care, but I still care.

Suddenly, his movements stopped abruptly, and he heard a subtle change in the sound of the tide in the sea of ​​blood, so he listened carefully, and heard vague and strange words ringing in his ears, like a woman's chuckle And the call, mysterious and soft, aroused his desire to get closer.Richard has no reason to have a good impression of this voice that he has never heard before. Hearing this voice seems to see the most perfect and favorite woman in his imagination.Immediately after he woke up, he realized that one of his feet had already stepped on the air, and there was a black and red sea below. Black shadows were dotted under the red blood water, as if he was being watched by huge eyes.

The distant heartbeat suddenly sounded, and it approached silently in the moment of trance of the other party, and it sounded like an ancient bell in the distance where the Temperance Angel was close at hand.A few drops of blood came from the corners of Richard's eyes and from his nose.He gasped and pulled the corner of his mouth, and immediately took a step, from the railing directly to near the top of the mast.

The wind is blowing, collapse and sell!
He stepped on the cable with both feet, grasped the mast with his hands, poured his own spirituality into the "Blue Avenger" almost unreservedly, and raised the ghost ship to the level of a saint in an instant!
The prisoner approach is good at using surrounding objects, which is one of the reasons why Richard chose Alger and the "Blue Avenger".

This ghost ship seemed to have life in an instant. The rudder turned quickly, as if it had become a wheel, and completed an impossible U-turn in the blink of an eye.The hanging anchors and chains clashed and clanked, its sails were raised high, and the wind from nowhere blew the sails violently, the hull kept balancing and swaying left and right, the empty wine bottle containing the suicide note Rolling around on the deck, the sound of the wind and all kinds of chaotic sounds mixed together, playing a rough movement, just like the Youlan Avenger laughing loudly.

At this time, it is not really entering the abyss, it gallops towards the place it came from, leaving the heartbeat and the woman's annoyed whispers far behind.

At the same time, Richard turned his back to the abyss, took off his glasses, and raised them to his shoulders, with the mirror facing his back.

Click!Click!Click!
The lens cracked immediately, and the golden frame seemed to be twisted by invisible hands. Richard was startled by the cracks one after another, and quickly put it down.

"Completely indescribable..."

"It's weird. Even if Fabuti is a crazy Sequence One, it won't cause the items protected by my spirituality to collapse instantly."

What is behind me?Richard felt cold all over.

The strange female voice in the ear became more and more angry, and at the moment when the Blue Avenger rushed out of the barrier, it almost turned into a roar that could kill people. The sound faded away after the bright sun and blue water.Temperance Angel's breath was exhausted, and he was somewhat polluted mentally. The faint headache reminded him to pay attention to his state.

It's okay, just rest for a while.The glasses weren't completely broken...they couldn't last even a second, what the hell was it?Could it be because of this thing that the teacher asked me to look for the abyss?

Richard raised the glasses and examined them carefully, and found that the cracks on them were strange, like a tree with luxuriant branches.

The remaining spirituality made Richard's heart beat faster and his blood flow faster, which didn't seem to be the negative effect that the devil's path should have.

"It's broken like this, and I have a headache now...I've figured out how to lie to Mr. Alger."

Richard didn't wipe the blood from the corners of his eyes and under his nose. He snapped his fingers, and the ropes that bound the crew members untied themselves one after another. The ghost ship got slower and slower, and finally drifted on the sea with the wind.

Remnants of spirituality may keep the people on this ship abstinent for a few days, which is a good thing.

The Temperance Angel took out his own little book, and the diary on it changed according to his will, and brought hypnotic and suggestive effects.The diary, which is like a horror drama, gradually changes its content.

In the diary, after they crossed the violent sea, they sailed relatively smoothly all the way to the Oradek Islands, and then made a field trip on the islands for a week. The traces of life on the islands can prove that this memory is True... Then they successfully completed their goal and returned to the ship, but they did not expect to encounter a storm at sea today, lost their way in unknown seas for several days, and another storm came today, and everyone fell unconscious... Eating food, spectacles, and blood on the boat testify.

It's nice and seamless.Angel snapped the diary shut.

After confirming that all preparations were completed, Richard made a good disguise for himself, stopped insisting, and suddenly fainted on the deck.

TBC

The more than half a month from November and a half to early December was skipped by a sentence in the original work. In order to make this period of time disappear less abruptly, I used Richard's diary to express the passage of time.

Day [-] of graduation trip: Sore feet.
