Chapter 378: The ...... of Stargazing
The lonely ocean is endless and far away, and the sky and the earth are vast, who watches.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The wind and waves are getting bigger and bigger, and wave after wave seems to destroy the world.
In this cold and biting world, Beiton felt that his strength was gradually draining, he sat on the huge wooden barrel floating in a daze, and watched blankly as the huge waves tens of meters high in front of him crashed down like this, but his usual decisive thinking was as stiff as a rusty gear, and he couldn't make any dodging movements at all.
Suddenly, a tingling pain came from his leg, and after this painful stimulation, Betton found himself able to move again, and he quickly grabbed the safety rope that had been loosened at some point from his waist, and then saw that it was the Dire who was helping him. The black Nine Nightcats scratched his skin with their claws, helping him to get out of his previous state of being too stiff to move, but before Betton could thank it, the terrifying wave of devastating fire had already been photographed, and in an instant the Dire had left its safety and swept it into the waves, and when the waves had passed, it was no longer to be found.
"No...... No! Beyton let out a cry of toldness, he looked into the vast ocean, trying to find the trace of his companion, but there was no sign of the Dire in the deep sea, "Please, give me back the Dire, whatever the cost......"
When he lost Dire, he realized how important the Nine Night Cats, who usually seemed to like to make trouble for him, held in his heart, and at this moment, he desperately longed for a miracle.
Then, something called a miracle really appeared in front of him.
The roaring ocean magically calmed down, the dark clouds in the sky cracked, and the golden sunlight formed a pillar of light to shine on the surface of the sea, and in this miraculous brilliant light, the girl with a small umbrella walked out of the fog of not being able to see her true face, and still held a slender discharger in her mouth. She walked up to Betton with her feet on the calm sea, and smiled faintly.
"Young traveler, I heard you dropped something?" The girl named Fei Yu said, she raised her finger slightly, and four rays of light slowly floated out of the ocean behind her, "May I ask if you dropped this Golden Nine Night Cat, or this Silver Nine Night Cat, or this little Core Protector?" ”
Wait, if I can understand the previous things, but what the hell is that last option, why does it have an indescribable but extremely terrifying feeling? Betton instinctively felt a chill, and the light behind you was clearly three whites and one blue, which was completely different from what was said, right......
"Oh, so you dropped this little nuclear protector, so please don't take it back." The girl in front of her smiled harmlessly, and with a wave of her hand, threw a cloud of light at Bayton.
You didn't listen to anyone at all, don't make such a claim!
Looking at the mysterious light that flew towards him, for some reason Betton felt that as long as he let this thing come into contact, he would be worse than dead, and he panicked backwards to try to dodge, but the soles of his feet slipped and fell directly backwards, and the sound of the wind in his ears completely sank into the vast sea. The icy sea water was cold on all sides, and the biting chill penetrated through his skin and deep into his bone marrow, and he was overwhelmed by the water.
The most terrifying thing was that the unknown light group completely ignored the resistance of the seawater, and still floated towards him at a steady speed, floating all the way to his body in his frightened eyes, and then a strange word sounded in his ears: "Are you something that can be guarded?" ”
……
"Ahh
Betton let out a kind of scream that sounded terrible, and then he slammed into some hard obstacle, he gasped for breath in the dark, and it took a long time to calm down a little: "It's terrible, it's all a dream, it scares me to death......"
Although his memories had become blurry, he was quite sure that he had dreamed of something terrifying beyond imagination, and based on an instinctive sense of crisis, he didn't even have any urge to try to recall the details.
Memories of the past began to flood back in his mind, and he escaped from the sinking Courier with the wooden barrel used to store fresh water in the Courier's storage room, while a group of giant monsters known as the Bone Squid had surrounded the sea near the Courier.
The bone-crushing squid is a carnivore that, unlike most marine predators, is not picky about its recipes, even if it is a land creature, the Moon Prayer is also on the predator list of these giant monsters. They seem to understand that this large wooden ship is some kind of nest where the Moon Prayers congregate in large numbers, but it is usually difficult for even a bone-crushing squid to damage such a large ship. However, at this time, the Courier had already had a serious crack under the destruction of the sword-finned fish, all they had to do was to expand the crack and wait for it to sink completely, so that it would obviously be much easier, these ferocious monsters that had appeared in the Marine Epoch, and even dared to attack the whales, would not let go of such a good opportunity, and planned to catch them all.
What a horrible scene that was...... Although Betton didn't know why he was lucky enough to escape that terrible encirclement, he obviously couldn't help the moon praying people on the ship. As the waves swept their barrels farther and farther away from the Courier, the fate of the Moon Prayers was largely predictable.
They couldn't escape the dense encirclement of the bone-crushing squid, and even the bone-crushing squid themselves didn't even think about the possibility of their prey escaping, all they cared about was competition from their peers. In this era, no one can come to the rescue, and no one has the ability to rescue them.
When he was able to save others, Bayton didn't mind pulling them along, just like when he rescued Fei Yi together, of course, part of the reason for relying on her to find clues. However, when there is no possibility of helping others, it is impossible for Bayton to stay and die with these passers-by for them, so his approach is actually a very normal thing, but the ending is very uncomfortable.
The wounded and fragile Pyro, and the Dire, who couldn't swim at all, hid directly in the vat...... Yes, you heard it right, the tsundere Nine Nightcats didn't know anything about swimming, and Bayton himself sat on top of the barrel, watching the Courier drift out of sight. He had forgotten how long he had been staring at the horizon, until finally he felt tired too, and then opened the lid of the barrel from the top and hid inside.
As long as the small opening at the top is opened, there is no need to worry about suffocation, and the volume of this barrel can squeeze into two people, and in this rickety drifting environment, he is completely asleep before he knows it.
"If only the shipwreck was just a nightmare......," Betton couldn't help but sigh, he remembered the Shadow Wing that he didn't know where he was now, it had already wandered on the nearby sea before the disaster came, and he didn't know if he could find them again, "but speaking of which, this feeling is ...... Something bad is going to happen. ”
He felt as if his hand had touched something soft to the touch, squeezed it, and then heard some strange sound...... With a hint of bad premonition, Bayton used his other hand to open the opening for ventilation a little wider, allowing the light of the stars and moon to shine in from above, illuminating the scene.
The foreign object that he touched in the palm of his hand was indeed ...... Dire's cat's ass.
Dire's dark pupils were hidden in the night-like hair, and they were staring at him with reflective eyes, and without thinking much about it, Bayton was sure that it had a look of disgust.
Stupid servant, who allowed you to touch the king's ass? Presumably that's what Dire thought at this point, and then a claw slapped Beton's hand away. As for the mysterious girl who called herself Fei Yuan, she was curled up on the other side of the barrel at this time, with the slender discharger in her mouth, and she seemed to be asleep when she closed her eyes.
Is she dreaming, too, and what kind of dream could it be? Beyton looked at Fei Wei, who was sleeping quietly, shook his head slightly, ran his fingers over Dire's belly, and gently scratched it to make it comfortable.
He pulled out the glowing biomass known as the Roller Lamp from his package, and thanks to the fact that he had never left these important items with him, none of them had been left behind. Gently holding it with his free palm for about a few tens of seconds, the body temperature reached the level that could stimulate the light of the rolling lamp, although the faint soft light could not be said to be very bright, but it was much better than complete natural light, but this small environment that swayed back and forth was really not suitable for reading, so Betton did not take out his notes, but looked up at the sky above the barrel, from here you can see that the bright sea of stars once again formed a huge empty eye in the sky staring at the earth.
The Eyes of the Stars, this is the eternal scenery of Lan Xing, this scene has appeared even before the birth of Xing Lan, staring at this space from beginning to end, it is a miracle created by thousands of stars.
Somehow, Bayton remembered the excitement of the moon prayer people when they saw the spine fish, and the legend has it that people who see both the airbag jellyfish and the school of spine fish will get good luck, is this the so-called good luck?
This seems a little ironic, is this a curse on the moon prayers of those who are destroying the living environment? People who try to destroy nature are bound to get big. Self. Naturally, the punishment may be just that.
"Don't worry, everything will be fine." The girl's soft voice came from the side, and Betton turned his head to find that Fei Yu had opened his closed eyes at some point. Her crescent-shaped pupils with a faint sapphire color are even more conspicuous at night, reflecting the faint brilliance of the starry sky, so bright and beautiful, "I will find hope." ”
"Now we're a tribe under the same moon tree." Betton smiled helplessly, the meaning of this sentence in the Moon Prayer is similar to a grasshopper on the same rope, "I hope I can see the land again." ”
