0003 Dilemma
After the fleet went deep into the ocean, a blue sea unfolded in front of them, and the water and sky were the same color, which was refreshing and pleasant. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The water is inky underwater, and the water is very clear due to the isolation of people, but the radiation content is very high, and at night, you can see the deep sea with a faint green light and underwater life with radiation under the rough waves.
Unfortunately, you can't open the window, but if you can breathe the air with the smell of the sea, it will make the feeling of cleansing your soul even stronger.
Ling Ding lay on her side on the tatami mat with the built-in viewing balcony, this was probably the first time she had seen the sea since she was born, a little excited, a little excited, and she stayed on the balcony alone for a whole morning.
Ling Ding stretched out her hands high, Meimei stretched her waist, and the comfortable moaning sound made people's hearts sway, burning a fire in her heart, and her body reacted unconsciously.
"Actually, the sea is also quite boring, except for the blue, it's blue, I see too much, and I'm sleepy!" Ling Ding said with emotion.
Cen Mu leaned up, his left hand leaned into the small coat from the back of his neck, and gently rubbed it on the vest, the touch was smooth and delicate, Ling Ding's face unconsciously climbed into a touch of red, and the sound of chirping was faint.
This is a habit she developed when she was a child, her mother died early, and she didn't sleep well at night, so she had to gently touch the vest to fall asleep, and gradually developed a habit, but no one could help when she grew up, she missed that comfortable feeling very much, until she was with Cen Mu, and this task was handed over to him.
Cen Mu found that as long as she stroked her vest, she became very quiet and obedient, docile like a cat.
"It's not static, it's still quite dangerous in the sea, especially when there are storms and waves."
"We are big ships, what are we afraid of! Even if it encounters a storm, it will not be able to set off any storms for aircraft carriers! ”
Cen Mu shook his head and said, "You can't think like that, you've seen that big guy in the Swarm Canyon with me, right?" There must be more life at the bottom of the sea, but it just didn't let you see it! ”
Ling Ding's eyes showed a hint of horror, it can be said that the experience of the insect swarm canyon is the terrifying experience she wants to have in her life: seeing insects all over the mountains and fields, endless; Seeing that your own soldiers are constantly being wounded and dying; I saw that the ammunition was rapidly depleted, that it was about to run out, and finally that I saw the brood like a mountain.
It felt hopeless.
Therefore, Cen Mu used the mother nest as an analogy, Ling Ding felt fear, the blue deep sea is indeed invisible, maybe the ancient barbarian beast is located in the deepest part of the trench, with countless eyes open, staring at every move of the ship on the sea.
Ling Ding glanced at him and muttered, "You're really going to be disappointed!" When you say such a beautiful view, I have a sense of fear that I don't even have the courage to sit by the window. ”
Cen Mu shrugged helplessly, and said with a smile: "This can only be blamed on the eldest lady, you are too imaginative, under the blue sky and white sun, what monster can you imagine?!" ”
Su Ling interjected: "Xiao Mu, that's your problem, haven't you heard of deep-sea phobia?" ”
"I've heard of this, I thought that I only had this kind of fear when I fell into the sea, but I didn't expect to be afraid on a boat."
Su Ling smiled: "Tinker's reaction is normal, some slight phobia, I have a friend who is not only not like this, not only does she not dare to take a boat, but she will tremble when she sees that kind of blue sea, and she doesn't even dare to see some deep-sea pictures with ink color at home." ”
"Alright! I can only admire you too, your imagination is quite rich! ”
Ling Ding was stimulated by this, her sleepiness disappeared, and she looked at Cen Mu with resentment on her face.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Ling Tian's voice came in: "Xiao Mu, are you there?" Go get a drink with us! Don't stay at home all day, young people should pay attention to their bodies! Be able to control yourself and arrange exercise time scientifically! ”
Hearing this, Ling Dingqiao's face turned red and cursed: "Uncle Tian is not a small person, so unserious!" No wonder Grandpa didn't want to see him! ”
Cen Mu replied through the door: "Uncle Tian, you can't eat grapes, just say that grapes are sour!" ”
Saying this, even Su Ling felt embarrassed.
"Hah! What you say is what you are! Let's go! A bunch of your relatives, friends and brothers are waiting for you, come out and meet everyone! ”
It is also said that this time the people who followed the team were either relatives, brothers, or old subordinates, and everyone risked their lives to follow Cen Mu to fight in the New World, which was in their trust in him.
Cen Mu turned around and asked, "Do you two want to go together, it looks quite lively." ”
Su Ling looked at himself and was a little embarrassed: "This doesn't work, you have to change your clothes!" ”
Ling Ding yawned and waved his hand: "Go ahead!" I'm a little sleepy, so I'll just go to sleep. ”
"Then you're not afraid...... ...... underwater," Cen Mu pointed to the floor.
"Humph! You guy, why are you so bad?! Ling Ding glared at him fiercely and rushed up to beat him.
Cen Mu smiled and flashed away, and shouted outside the door: "Uncle Tian, you go first, we will come immediately!" ”
……
At this time, in the direction of the fleet, thousands of nautical miles away, far away on the other side of the ocean, the port city of Nangang, and then along a Sogo Strait, deep in, on a barren plain, was in a scorching dilemma inside and outside.
The clouds were low, so low that they seemed to be within reach, the wind rushed wantonly in the town, blowing up the dust, blowing so that people could not open their eyes, the shops closed their stalls early, locked the doors and windows, and stuffed waterproof materials in the gaps between the doors and windows, the wooden houses could not withstand the erosion of defense, and only the high-end buildings in the town would not be afraid of water leakage.
The air was so damp that it was hard to disperse the fire, and it was sticky all over the body, like a layer of sweat, and some small businesses were nested in the small space of their shops, cursing the damn weather while burning the fire.
In contrast, the slums outside Bounty Town are even more uncomfortable, the tents set up with rain cloths can't withstand the ravages of the storm at all, looking at the current weather, it can be predicted that the next storm will be a heavy rain that is rare in a century, after a rainstorm, I am afraid that many people will die, and the poor people's weak physique cannot bear a large dose of radiation at all.
For the poor, they fear for their lives; For the Bounty Town higher-ups, there are even more worries.
At this time, at the headquarters of the Second Xingtian Regiment, there were many people crowded in the largest conference room.
Some of the old people in the four major towns of Xingtian: Mr. and Mrs. Gray, Qingniu, Da Zhuang, Xiao Zang, Pan Jin, Robert, etc.
Representatives of the Yun family in Luke City: Yun Qi, Xiao Mustard Seed, Yun Qianxue, Yun Tianqing, Yun Mengze.
Representatives of the Luketown Church, current Patriarch of the Good Luck Cult and Head of the Church Order: Randolph and Marcus.
Bounty Town Executives: Franklin, Catherine, Garfield, Fu siblings, and Eighth Uncle Tuobatao.
Basically, all of Cen Mu's connections in the Shengfeng Continent were gathered.
In the conference room, they sat together in small groups and discussed in private.
Suddenly, there was a dense crackling sound outside the house, hitting the window glass, through the transparent glass, you can see a stripe of water, the wind swept the rain like countless whips, and slammed on the glass window, I was really worried that the next moment, the glass window would be shattered.
The rain came in through the cracks in the window and flowed down the windowsill, and it was pitch black outside, and another electric light illuminated the sky, and in an instant it was as bright as day, and a thunderstorm exploded at low altitude......
Catherine thumped the table, and the metal armor clattered against the wooden table, quieting the room.
Catherine said: "The purpose of bringing everyone together is to let everyone understand the predicament in front of us, have a clear understanding of the current situation, and be fully mentally prepared. ”
There was a dead silence in the room, and everyone waited silently for her to lift the lid.
Catherine held her breath, glanced at everyone, took a long breath, and muttered: "At present, Gabriel's army has completed the encirclement, and unfortunately, this time we are facing the opponent of 'Peter Ferdinand', so we can let Mr. Randolph give us a general insight and tell us what this Peter is." ”
Randolph continued: "Peter has a resounding nickname in the Holy Church, 'Madman', which means that on the battlefield he is a madman without pain, fear, or mercy, he is a high-ranking knight who has been fully brainwashed by the Holy Church, and he is also a madman who dares to challenge the giants of the Judgment Town as the 'dark arbiter' of the Church.
Aside from this person, and looking at the soldiers he led, it was even more unfortunate that it was the standard Knights of the Holy Blade, in other words, the strongest regiment of the Holy Blade Church, which showed that maybe Gabriel had discovered the secret of the bounty town, otherwise, he would not have made such a big move, and would rather temporarily give up some of the situations on the frontal battlefield than destroy us first.
It's not that I discourage everyone's enthusiasm, basically don't have any expectations, if you can't beat it, you can't beat it, this is a gap in strength, we have to consider a very real problem:
How can I escape?! ”
Catherine rolled her eyes, knocked on the table, and said dissatisfiedly, "Is our Patriarch frightened?" We haven't talked about this yet, so wait until I'm done talking about the situation and then we'll talk about what to do, okay? ”
Randolph smiled back and held out his hand to signal her to continue.
Catherine said loudly: "Recently, we have expanded a bit fast, we have received a lot of refugees, the number of people has exceeded the safety load, according to the current rate of food and water consumption, we can last at most half a month."
Even if we can withstand the Holy Edge Knights for half a month, after half a month, we will be in chaos. ”
Franklin interjected, "Is there anything to say about Blue Harbor?" ”
"They're happy to help, but the situation really doesn't allow it, and an opponent like Gabriel, even Blue Harbor itself doesn't want to suffer, let alone us."
"So what? How much can they help? ”
Catherine sighed: "There is a ship parked at the Gazus base, and the ship can carry more than a hundred people at most!" Blue Harbor does not guarantee that the ship will not be attacked by Gabriel, so, if it is really intended to retreat from the water, we must have someone to stay and do their best to hold off Peter's army, which is a ...... Death Mission. ”
There was silence in the conference room, who stayed? Who could stop Peter's army? A big question.
After a long silence, someone asked, "What about the regimental commander?" He...... When will I be able to come back? ”
At the mention of this person, Catherine's heart was blocked for a while, and then she showed a sad smile: "I don't know either!" Maybe he hasn't finished dealing with the affairs of the other continent yet! ”
Garfield suddenly interjected: "Actually, it is because of him, in order to keep the first diocese of the Good Luck Sect, to protect the nearly 230,000 followers of the Good Luck Sect, and to hold the foundation of the so-called Second Regiment of Xingtian, that we are in the current predicament......
A long time ago, I suggested that Catherine give up Bounty Plains and move to Blue Harbor for the time being, and at that time it would be much more leisurely to leave, but she didn't listen! Now I regret it!
I just want to ask you, is it worth it? Maybe he doesn't even know if you're dead, or maybe he forgot about it at all, who knows? As long as people go back, is it necessary to come back? It's a civilized world over there......"
"Enough!" A soft rebuke interrupted Franklin's confession.
Everyone was shocked, because it was not Catherine who made the sound, but Little Mustard.
Catherine was silent, not knowing what she was thinking.
Xiao Mustard affirmed: "I believe in Brother Xiao Cen, he will definitely come back!" ”
Garfield sneered, "I don't doubt that, but what I suspect is that when he comes back, we're still there?" ”
Everyone was silent in unison, and when the truth was dissected, people realized that it was so cruel!
Catherine thought for a moment and said, "For now, if we don't make a decision for the time being, I will report our current situation to the God of Good Luck, and I hope to get feedback from the opposite continent as soon as possible!"
All right! That's all for today's meeting, the Bounty Town Council stays, and the others can go back first. ”
