Volume 2: Lost in the Sea of Fog [004] Mark is gone

"Do you think we're like a cake? Putting it on the table doesn't attract the attention of mice, cockroaches, and ants at first, but as time goes on, if no one eats the cake, then it will definitely attract more and more rats, cockroaches, and ants. ”

Qiao Si looked at the diary, and suddenly a very strange thought appeared in his mind, so he looked at the others and slowly said his thoughts.

It's an interesting analogy, and if you think about it, it's a possibility. Hawkins agreed with a smile after listening.

It may be that the Black Knife has just entered the Sea of Mist, so it has not attracted the attention of any monsters, and as their range of activity increases, it naturally attracts the attention of some monsters, and maybe even some creatures in the Delirium Realm are also attracted to them.

If Qiao Si's guess is correct, then if they want to cross the misty sea next, they will definitely undergo more tests.

In fact, Hawkins has a lot of speculation, but because it is just speculation, he hid it in his heart and did not say it.

As the galleon continued down, the corridor was already flooded by the sea, but this was not a big problem for Hawkins, who directly carried a large amount of air and crashed directly into the sea, splitting the water and forming an air passage.

Unfortunately, because the sea water was soaked for too long, the subsequent search did not go well, and the paper books, diaries, and navigation records were all destroyed by the sea.

The only one who is not in her interest is Marnie, because she only has gold in her eyes, and gold is not destroyed when soaked in water.

Once the entire ship had been searched, Hawkins took everyone away, sending all the gold to Eternal Space by the way, and returning to the Black Knife, where he ordered the sailors to continue sailing.

In the next few days, there were no more problems on the Black Knife, and Mark even began to doubt Hawkins's guess, could it be that Qiao Si's initial guess was correct, it was just an accident?

"Hey, there's a shipwreck ahead!"

Mark was sitting at the bow of the ship, bored looking at the chat group, when he suddenly saw a dark shadow looming in the fog ahead, so he closed the chat group and looked up.

In a moment, a huge shipwreck appeared in front of him.

"Captain, another great discovery!!

Mark immediately spoke in the chat group.

When everyone saw the wreck through the live broadcast, they all had a strange feeling.

Marnie frowned, "This ship looks like we've seen it. ’

"Hey, Marnie's memory has grown. Mourning Night was amazed.

Ma Ning wondered, "Why is this ship so similar to the one we encountered before?

The Black Knife gradually approached the wreck, and the more the group looked, the more certain they became, this was the shipwreck they had encountered earlier.

Hawkins walked out of the cabin, looked up at the wreck, and frowned, "It's exactly the same." ”

"Captain, are we going to spare it and come back?" asked Mark.

Hawkins shook his head and said, "No, I'm sure our ship is straight ahead. ”

The human senses are not trustworthy, just as if you insist on going straight with your eyes blindfolded, you will inevitably end up in circles. Hawkins never believed in the senses, so he used a number of methods to determine that he was sailing in a straight line.

Moreover, the Black Knife itself has a straight function.

Hawkins can at least guarantee that the Black Knife is not going around in circles, so there is no possibility of going around.

Of course, he wasn't sure if the space in the Misty Sea was a normal space, or maybe it was a distortion of space, which caused the Black Knife to go straight and go around back.

"Let's go, go up and have a look!"

Hawkins unfolded the electromagnetic force field and said to Mark.

This time he didn't bring anyone else, just him and Mark.

The two of them flew onto the deck of the wreck, and frowned slightly when they saw the door, which had not been closed before they left, and the door of the wreck was closed.

Hawkins and Mark came to the door, and Mark immediately stepped forward and tried to push the door, and sure enough, it was locked inside......

"Captain?" Mark looked at Hawkins, a questioning expression.

Hawkins shook his head and said lightly: "Let's go and see first." ”

With a flick of his hand, the locked door opened automatically, and the two of them quickly entered the cabin.

After a while, they came to the first room again, that is, the bedroom of the patriarch of the Arkham family, and the two of them were stunned when they entered the dormitory, and all the golden furniture that they had emptied before had returned.

Hawkins was the first to make sure that the gold in the Eternal Space was still there, and then looked at the gold furniture in the room in distraction.

There are only two possibilities, one is that they have encountered another ship that is exactly the same, and the other is that the contents of this ship will automatically revert.

Hawkins floated to the bedside table and found the diary and flipped through it directly.

......

"Our ancestors were proud of adventure. ”

"Being alive is the greatest adventure in itself, and if there is no risk in something, it means that there are no surprises in it. ”

"The Arkham family is a family with the blood of the mad god in its veins, and the mad god watches over every member of the family, and the crazier the person, the more loved by the god. ”

"I ...... Akam Romeo, who will use his life as a bargaining chip, will cross the sea of gods, the abode of the gods in front of him. ”

"It was an adventure at the expense of the family, and I believe no ancestor was more adventurous than I was. ”

......

"I regret it, I shouldn't have gambled on the fate of my family. ”

"The Sea of Mist is the dwelling place of the phantom gods, they are everywhere and omniscient, and we have become their playthings. ”

"I heard Him whispering in my ear, but I didn't know what He was saying, and the more I tried to be clearer, the more His voice became indistinct, and I was going crazy. ”

"Jim was sick, lying in bed and screaming pitifully, and he might need a little bit of phantom powder, which should make him a little happier in his last days, a little bit. ”

......

"No, no, no!"

"I see, it's not an illusion!"

"The phantom god is an old man, a child, a beauty, and a spirit, but it is absolutely impossible to be such a disgusting existence. ”

"Maybe it's a game, once you start a game with no exit options, then let's play like crazy, I'm the craziest Arkham !!"

......

Hawkins looked at the diary, the corners of his mouth gradually turning up.

The contents of the diary have changed, indicating that the ship is not the same as before.

Hawkins is curious about the relationship between this Romeo and the previous Robinson.

And there are two interesting words mentioned in this diary.

Phantom God, God of Madness!

In fact, these two words are Hawkins' own understanding.

Because these are two words that Nanami don't exist, and although Nanami's letters are the same as those in the diary, many of the words are spelled differently.

For example, the word old man.

In Nanami's spelling, it also means 'the one who will die'.

In this diary, however, it is more elegant, and the meaning of the spelling is somewhat close to the 'sunset' in the seven seas, which can also be understood as 'the twilight'.

The word phantom god is completely Hawkins' own understanding.

But here it can also be extended to "illusionary gods", "non-existent gods", "possible gods" and so on, simply put, whether there is an illusionary god or not, is simply unknown.

Another word is more interesting.

The god of madness, this is also Hawkins's own understanding, in fact, this word can also be interpreted as 'mad god' and 'god who has gone mad'.

I'm afraid that you can only really understand what it means when you reach the sea area where the target is located.

After all, many words actually have the heritage of local culture, and it is difficult to really understand the meaning of words by reading and understanding them alone.

"The diary has changed. Hawkins handed the diary to Mark.

Mark was stunned and surprised: "So...... Isn't this the same ship?'

"Probably not. Hawkins looked at the hull of the ship, and with a memory comparable to that of a camera, he quickly found fault.

Although the two ships are almost identical, there are still many differences in details, such as the style of the wall lamp, some details are different from the previous wall lamp.

That's a small difference, but it's still possible to find fault with Hawkins.

Next, the two of them scavenged all the gold on board and returned to the Black Knife again.

Although there were still some problems, Hawkins did not delve into them, but simply asked the sailors to sail away.

Why there are two identical ships and what is the relationship between the two ships has nothing to do with Hawkins, he is not curious about it.

As Aldrich had countless of them, he wasn't curious about why, it had nothing to do with him anyway.

A few days later, Hawkins and the others encountered another shipwreck......

Probably because of his experience, even Mark didn't make a fuss, and then Hawkins boarded a ship with Mark to scavenge for gold, and then continued the voyage, which took less than half an hour.

"The monster didn't encounter it, but the strange ship did, is there anything more strange in this misty sea?"

Mark sat at the bow of the ship and typed in the chat group, because of the monsters that could appear at any time, so he had to stay on the Black Knife, watching the daily life of others frolicking in the eternal space, he was about to cry with envy.

"Second mate, take care of it a little more, after all, we have the highest combat power here. Qiao Si comforted.

This time, Mourning Night did not open his mouth to taunt Mark, after all, the Sea of Mist is indeed uncomfortable, and staying behind the Black Knife is indeed a chore.

But then, the style of painting suddenly changed.

The text Mark typed was getting stranger and stranger.

"What is this place?"

......

"Captain, something went wrong, I seem to have been teleported to a strange space. ”

......

"Hell, can't you get in touch?"

......

"Wouldn't you, there's no way to return to Eternal Space?"

......

Finally, Mark doesn't type any more words.

In fact, when he spoke, Qiao Si and the others answered his questions one after another, but he didn't seem to be able to see it.

On the Black Knife, Hawkins walked out of the cabin, and sure enough, Mark was no longer in the bow of the ship, and he paid attention to the eternal space to make sure that Mark's body was still lying in his home.

"Can't get in touch with the chat group, can't return to Eternal Space?" Hawkins thought with a frown.

Wrong!

There is a question, if he really can't contact the chat group, how does he send the text to the chat group?

Or is it ...... It's just that Mark can't see it, or the chat group he sees is different from the real chat group?
