Chapter 133: The Sea Monster
A gathering between colleagues from the Bureau of Anomalous Investigations, which Donald had expected to be an exchange of intelligence and a team exchange between investigators.
Although he didn't plan to team up with anyone, that didn't stop him from sitting down and listening to some information.
However, after less than 10 minutes of sitting down, Donald regretted it, and he suddenly realized that no matter where the stranger meeting was, it was mostly divided into several stages.
At first, I didn't know anyone, but when I introduced each other, I was happy, hello, hello, everyone.
Then find a topic, such as the Shapeshifting Island they are about to go to now, at first they are talking about what to pay attention to on the Shapeshifting Island, but as they talk, there will always be a few people who start to put on themselves.
For example, when it comes to a strange beast, someone will bring the topic to themselves and show one or two pieces of equipment, and then someone will show it for the sake of it.
Talking about the price of the equipment, the difficulty of making it, and how difficult it is to get started.
The people next to him were embarrassed to pretend not to hear, so they had to echo a few words, which was regarded as giving each other face.
After that, there is mutual praise, such as how good someone is at completing a task some time ago, and the person who is touted has a habit of being humble and then bringing the topic back to the person just now.
In the words of Donald's previous life, this is called business blowing.
This kind of touting naturally has its purpose, in order to show his superiority in front of others, and then make some people whose brain circuits are as straight as the 200-meter track take the initiative to stick to them, and do some "effort" that is really embarrassing in Donald's opinion in order to join them.
Facts have proved that the people who are looking for by the Heterogeneous Bureau are not necessarily elites, and combat effectiveness has never been equated with the word IQ.
Of course, Donald, as an inscription and wizard, is the one who is sought after, and even if he sits next to him without saying a word, there are still people who take the initiative to come up and make friends.
After shaking seven or eight hands in a row, and having some brief conversations with these people, the smile on his face was tired, and Donald chose to give up.
It's not that Donald refuses to socialize, he just thinks that there is not much point in associating with these people, and if he needs teammates, he will naturally take the initiative to join in, and even become the one who chooses them, but it is not necessary at the moment.
Declining everyone's invitation to join the party, she quietly exited the tavern in the cabin and returned to her room down the hallway, where Lilo was sitting cross-legged on the bed, her face facing the open window.
Looking at the time, it was already half past eight in the evening, and Donald was shivered by the sea breeze at night, and his dull mood was a little uplifted.
"It's better here, comfortable, Lilo, you promised me, close the window. ”
Went to the bed, leaned on the futon, looked at Lilo next to him and said.
"Oh. ”
Getting up and closing the window, Donald leaned against the futon, and after a while turned sideways to make it easier to drink lemon juice.
"Lilo, can I turn off the lights?"
Looking at the sound of the sea tide outside, Donald did not choose to practice spells, but communicated with Lilo through his spiritual power, and he was ready to rest.
He didn't get a good rest during this busy time, and he was probably close to his destination tomorrow evening, and there was still a jungle adventure, and he had to keep his strength at peak as much as possible.
Bang~
The lights were off, and the soundproofing in the cabin was pretty good, not even the sound of the tide outside, except for the occasional faint footsteps of some passengers coming and going.
"Good night. ”
Donald didn't take off his clothes, which was Donald's habit outside, taking Finger into his arms as a warm water bag, and falling asleep quickly.
Lilo on the other side turned to look at Donald, she didn't understand why the person in front of her was saying goodnight, she didn't quite understand the meaning of these courtesy words at the moment.
Still, she opened her mouth, mimicking Donald's previous pronunciation, silently making two mouth shapes, and then turned back to look out at the sea.
**
At 5 o'clock in the morning, the co-captain walked up from the cabin wearing a cold-proof coat and carrying a whale oil searchlight, which made him rub his hands as he walked, and the whale oil lamp swayed around, and the beam of light passed through the thin fog around him, and the hazy feeling made it seem like he was still in a dream.
Across the deck to the captain's quarters, the captain had been on the boat all night, and there were rows of empty bottles of refreshing drinks next to the rudder.
"Captain, go and rest, and leave it to me. ”
Slipping his hands through the sleeves of his coat, the co-captain took the flask handed by the captain and poured it violently, and the hot sensation rushed to his mind, dispelling the tiredness and laziness.
"Be careful, we're carrying a shipwright, if something happens, it's not an overseas accident that can be prevaricated. ”
They can sail ships of this class, and their status is already superior in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of most of the passengers on the ship, they are no different from those who walk on the streets, at most they are preceded by a label: ordinary people who can sail ships.
This kind of mentality naturally causes some aliens to despise them.
has experienced a lot, and in private they will also ridicule the strangers as uncles.
Of course, at most, it's just in the presence of only your own people.
"Don't worry, you can't trust my skills, I had a good night's rest last night...... It's a shame that Maggie didn't go to sea with her on this trip. ”
"Haha, you guy, I knew you couldn't forget Maggie's big ass, and I was going to meet her in my dreams soon. ”
The man at sea, who always has a lot of meat in his mouth, walked out of the captain's room with the searchlight brought by the co-captain, and walked along the side deck to the cabin staircase.
Unexpectedly found that there were loops of rope scattered on the side of the ship, frowned, as the captain, cursed in a low voice to the sailor on duty last night, and then leaned in to rearrange the rope.
The searchlight was placed on the side of the boat, and the light happened to be pointing out towards the water.
Bang~Wow~
Suddenly, there was a splash of something heavy falling into the sea, and the captain thought that it couldn't be something on deck, so he hurriedly turned back to the searchlight to take a look around, for fear that something important would fall into the sea.
However, when he straightened up and turned to the side of the ship, what he saw was a black and purple "wall"!
And that huge dark yellow round eye in the center of the "wall"!
Boom~~
The "wall" appeared abruptly, and suddenly disappeared overboard, leaving only the seawater that was brought up to pour the captain's face!
Sitting down a few steps backwards, the captain with his mouth open, speechless.
**
Donald was woken up in his sleep, and he sat up from his bed suddenly, his mind dazed by the temporary lack of oxygen.
"What's wrong...... Lilo, what's going on?"
At first, he thought he was still in the villa, but when his reason gradually came to his mind, he realized that Lilo was standing next to his bed and her hand tugging at his quilt, and he realized that it was on a boat.
Donald knew that Lilo wouldn't wake her up over a trivial matter, and she must have thought that something had affected the safety of the two of them.
Reason has completely returned, there is a faint sound of dense footsteps in the corridor outside, Donald can't help but be a little nervous, this is Osway overseas, their voyage is close to a day, the worst result is a shipwreck, and when the time comes, I don't know if I can return to the mainland with my demonic power......
"Look outside. ”
Lilo interrupted Donald's ramblings and pointed to the window of the bedchamber, she didn't need to sleep, so she looked at the sea all night until just now.
She saw something different.
Put on the boots you had placed next to the bed, go around Lilo's bed, prop your hands on the window frame, and reach out to wipe some of the mist from it.
"Nothing. ”
Glancing over the sea outside, there was only a large area of blue-black water except for the mist of the early morning, and he raised his hand to brush aside the hair that had fallen from his forehead, and Donald looked back at Lilo.
"In the sea, there's something. ”
Lilo's response was simple, and Donald could only turn his head back and stare vigorously at the water outside the window.
After about 3 minutes, Donald's gaze was down, and below the surface of the water, which was about 5 meters from the window, a large shadow was streaking from the bottom of the ship compared to the surrounding water.
The shadow was moving forward, and it took five seconds for Donald to see the shadow shrink and eventually disappear into the sea.
Bang dang~
Before Donald could react to the violent impact, the whole person fell backwards, and the backpack on the bedside table also slipped directly from the impact, falling to the place with a dull sound.
"Shit, what the fuck is this monster?"
Rao had seen the giant toad in Lake Searle in Tallinn, and Donald couldn't help but burst into foul mouths at the moment.
Woo~Woo~Woo~
The siren sounded throughout the corridors of the cabin, and it was clear that the others had spotted the guy in the water.
"There is a sea monster attacking the ship, please go to the deck and gather immediately if you have the ability to do so!"
"I'm repeating, this is not a simple sea beast attack, there are huge sea monsters attacking the ship, please have capable passengers to go to the deck to help, if the ship capsizes, no one can escape!"
The voice in the loudspeaker became louder and more anxious, and it can be said that encountering sea beasts at sea is a frequent occurrence, and large ships of this level often do not care about the attacks of ordinary sea beasts, and can use special alarms and notify the whole ship to find help.
You don't have to think about it to know it's a big guy!
"Lilo, grab the backpack, let's go to the deck, remember to stand with me, you must not be too far away from me, Finger, go back to the backpack!"
Donald grabbed his backpack, let Finger jump in, zipped it up and carried it on his back, and walked a few steps outside to the door, where a pendant in the shape of a water drop appeared out of thin air around his neck.
The Rain Demon has been activated, and he must consider the worst-case scenario.
