Chapter 19: The Murmur of the Night
The Mediterranean Sea is named because it is located between three continents: Asia, Europe and Africa. It is one of the earliest birthplaces of human civilization, and its warm and humid special climate provided a good environment for ancient Westerners, but it made the autumn dust accustomed to the cold climate a little uncomfortable.
Sitting in the cabin of a cruise ship, Qiuchen carefully examined the fragments of the Necronomicon he had obtained at the Vatican, with strips of black Latin writing on the scraps of paper, which had become somewhat moldy due to moisture
"To be honest, Ai Wen, it's scary to look at these things every day" After staring at it for a while, Qiuchen put away the parchment plates and rubbed his eyes, "Especially, there is no meaningless nonsense at all, and I can't find any useful clues at all"
Ai Wen didn't respond, Qiu Chen sighed, stood up and walked out of the cabin, raised his hand to block out the harsh sunlight, and he took a deep breath of the air filled with the smell of seawater. After leaving the Vatican, Qiuchen finally got a sum of money from the application. It stands to reason that it is impossible for the Heroic Spirit to take money out of thin air without permission, after all, if everyone plays like this, who knows what effect the money flowing into the world will have, and in the eyes of Gaia, who pursues all kinds of perfection, any possible butterfly effect is not allowed
"Ai Wen, are you still busy" Qiuchen's index finger tapped his temple, and he held one hand on the fence of the cruise ship. After leaving the Vatican, he chartered a small private boat, this time he planned to go to the Black Sea by sea, and then go to Transylvania to take Hauptmann's necromancy book, after the departure of the baron, such a large fragment will definitely be targeted, before being taken by the enemy, it is better to control it in his own hands
After calling Ai Wen twice, Ai Wen still didn't respond, and Qiuchen stretched out in boredom. Now he has two fragments in his possession, one obtained in the Vatican, and the other in the forbidden world of Avignon, a small fragment accidentally obtained, but there is no new information about these two pieces, except for L'Alleye, which is known in the former manuscript
Rubbing his eyes, Qiuchen walked back to the cabin with some annoyance, a feeling of sleepiness came to him, he hadn't felt this feeling of wanting to sleep for a long time, maybe he could go and rest?
Shaking his head, Qiu Chen threw the Necromancy Book into his pocket, leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes to rest
I don't know how long it took, Qiuchen half-opened his eyes in a daze, a cool breeze blew and made him shiver, and after opening his eyes, no sunlight shone into his eyes, and the surroundings were no longer sunny at noon, but pitch black, as if it had entered the night
It's night? Got a good night's sleep on your own?
He opened his eyes for some unknown reason, but he was a little surprised by the touch of wood in his hands. How can your own cruise ship have a wooden structure?
Another cold wind blew, and this time Qiuchen was completely awake, but the changes in front of him made him a little unable to react. It was gloomy, the Mediterranean Sea seemed to be shrouded in a black curtain, there was silence all around, not even the sound of the waves could be heard, and the sky was even darker, without a trace of starlight or moon. The boat under him is no longer a yacht made of high-tech materials, but a wooden sailing ship with a whole color of cyan blue, looking at the degree of decay of the wood, it is believed that this ship is a ghost ship that has been drifting on the sea for an unknown number of years
"Aiwen?!" Qiuchen hurriedly called the main god in his consciousness, but the main god still did not respond
Qiu Chen took a sip and drew his sword to carefully guard his surroundings, but there was not a single sound around him as when he woke up, except for the creaking of his boots on the wooden deck
What kind of trap do you have at home? I really shouldn't sleep
But it's useless to regret it now, Qiu Chen closed his eyes, a trace of spiritual power slowly poked out from him, and began to search the surrounding environment, but before he took a few steps, his mind was blocked by something that seemed to be a wall of air, no matter how Qiu Chen penetrated, he couldn't break through its barrier
What the hell is going on
Qiu Chen looked up, but soon, he noticed something wrong in the eastern sky. In the darkness, a faint red glow was appearing in the east
It didn't take long for Qiu Chen to confirm that what he was seeing was not an illusion, and that more and more intense red light was constantly emerging in the eastern sky, and then, through the reflection of the red light, he saw a cloud floating over
As the intensity of the red light increased and the clouds approached, Qiu Chen could see what the floating thing in the sky was
Maybe it's a bit reluctant to call that thing a cloud, it's just a black mist, but in the mist, it seems to be a huge black piece of flesh that is haphazardly mixed together, with many tentacles, and a large mouth dripping with slime growing on the piece of meat
In all directions, from time to time, some red glowing eyes rolled over from the flesh, and Qiu Chen really couldn't imagine what to use to describe these strange objects
As the huge black cloud-like pieces of flesh continued to approach, waves erupted on the surface of the sea around Qiu Chen, slapping against the sailboat, staining the blue-blue sailboat with a blood-red color
Qiuchen took a deep breath, it didn't seem to be a good stubble
At the same time, in the evening sunset, an empty pleasure boat floats on the Mediterranean
Suddenly, a puff of gray smoke rose from the ground, and when the smoke cleared, Ako who had followed out of Gensokyo appeared on the boat, "Hey, that guy's breath just now is here, hey, what is this?"
Ako jumped into the cabin, crouched down and touched the little black powder left on the ground, "This is" After looking at it for a long time, Ako's expression became more and more frightened.
"No, Lord of the Phaseless God!"
"What's the matter, I finally took the initiative to report it once and shouted" Around Yazi, Neyaratotip's lazy voice sounded, "Cthulhu actually expects to be able to block my steps with deep divers, but the feeling of the fish's head being crushed is really comfortable~ How about the things I handed over to you"
"Lord Lookless, I've found traces of Autumn Dust, but" Ako seemed to be speechless, but Naia quickly helped her out
"Recently, I found a way to make food called fried in humans, which looks pretty good, since you are my loyal subordinate, then it is also your job to help the master solve the shortage of materials~"
Ako took two deep breaths, "Shub-Niggurath has appeared!" Qiu Chen was sucked away by her spirit! ”
After a moment of silence, Naia's furious voice rang out, "Bastard! That guy actually dared to touch my man! ”
In an instant, observatories around the world detected a huge burst of energy near the Indian Ocean, but alas, none of the aerial satellites captured any useful images, or at the same moment, the satellites' systems malfunctioned
