"Where have you been?" asked Charles, who was looking at the chart, to the mouse who opened the door.

"Went out to play. Frustrated, Lily replied sullenly.

"Hungry? I have some food on my table. ”

"Give it to the other rats, I've eaten it. A listless Lily climbed onto the pillow and lay down directly.

Looking at the mouse with abnormal emotions, Charles looked a little confused, he couldn't figure out what happened to this little mouse, wasn't everything over?

But he didn't bother to get used to this stinky problem, so he pulled her tail and slipped straight to the table.

"I've found you a few books on operating the battery, hurry up and read it, I'll take you to the port tomorrow for training. ”

Lily looked at the stacks of books that were taller than herself, and instinctively resisted. "I don't look, and I already know how to operate the turret!"

"Don't talk nonsense, it's not that simple to become a qualified gunner, since you are my crew, I must make you meet the standard, all kinds of abnormalities at sea, it is possible that your slight shortcomings will kill everyone. ”

Charles opened a book and threw the mouse at it.

Forced by the captain, Lily is forced to nibble on books that don't belong to her age.

But in this high-pressure environment, the depression and sadness in my heart soon stopped thinking, and the cheerful Lily returned, constantly complaining to Charles all day long.

Annoyed by the rats so much, Charles, who has always talked little, has also spoken more, and the room in the apartment has a little popularity for the first time.

Half a month passed quickly, Lily's initial training was completed, and Charles took the rested crew to start a new mission again.

Because the fifth-level island explored before was already the most marginal island, this time Charles took on the task of the northernmost sea area.

In general, it is safer to simply explore the sea than to the island. But what about the earth and the sea, who can say clearly.

The rest of the crew were surprised by Lily the Mouse, and at Charles's suggestion, no one inquired too much, they only knew one thing, the Narwhal now had a Mouse Gunner.

The narwhal's chimney rose again with black smoke and slowly disappeared under the watchful eyes of the dock workers.

Life at sea was as calm as ever, and the unknown things that crept up were quickly resolved

The second time they entered the sea without a buoy, the crew calmed down a lot.

Perhaps because there were no casualties in the previous mission, the crew was highly motivated for the new mission.

Even if it was only half a month off, everyone's face was full of confidence. The second mate, Knona, wanted to introduce his cousin to the ship and make a fortune with him.

The crew was privately speculating about how long it would be before they could explore a new island and fly with their captain.

In the cockpit, Charles held a pen and calculated the current position of the ship on the chart according to the speed and direction of the ship.

Originally, this was the job of a navigator, but now he does it himself, and this task must not be sloppy, as long as the coordinates are a little bit worse, the actual location is thousands of miles away.

After making sure that there were no errors in today's coordinates, Charles turned around and planned to go to the captain's room to write a nautical diary.

But as soon as he walked out the door, he inexplicably felt a certain awkwardness.

Charles, who was standing in the doorway, turned around and took in everything in the cockpit.

The narwhal's cockpit was much larger than the Mouse's, the size of half a classroom.

At this time, Boatswain Deepe was at the helm, and the first mate was sitting on the side to watch the voyage, and the two were talking.

"Bandage first mate, do you know? James is secretly married! He is married and he doesn't call us, do you think he is a little too unfriendly?"

"Left rudder 15...... Speed increased by 5 nautical miles......" bandage wooden command, as if not hearing the boatswain's complaints.

Sweeping his eyes back and forth in the cabin, Charles finally found the awkwardness, he walked straight to the bandage and ripped the bandage off his broken leg with his hand.

The thighs that had been devoured by Anna had actually grown out, and the inky black skin full of tattoos was in stark contrast to the newly grown bright white skin.

Deep, apparently noticing the amazement, widened his eyes to the fullest, and said in a fuss, "Oh my God, you can grow back with a broken leg? Are you an octopus in the sea?"

"Don't look around when you're at the helm!" was yelled at Charles, and the curious Deepp quickly shrank back.

Charles pointed to the broken leg and asked, "Can you tell me what's going on?" I haven't heard that the Photans have a special way to regenerate a severed limb. ”

"I ...... I don't know...... My memory is messy...... I've been to many places...... I've been through a lot of things, but my memories will fade away......"

The bandage covered his head with his hands, and his face showed a hint of pain. "I don't think I call it a bandage...... But I'm not sure ......"

It seems that this guy is also a person with a story. Charles sighed slightly.

He reached out and patted him on the shoulder. "It's okay, don't think about it if you can't remember what happened before, now you just need to remember that you are the first mate of the narwhal. ”

The bandage sitting on the stool raised his head, and the corners of his mouth rose hard, revealing a strange smile. "Thank you...... Captain. ”

After speaking, he took a long black needle and skillfully poked it on the newly grown thigh, and a row of small characters appeared on his thigh. "Captain Charles can be trusted. ”

"First mate, you don't have to—"

"Captain!

Hearing Deep's somewhat panicked voice, Charles immediately looked out the window.

Patches of bright yellow shook and fell, this scene made Charles seem to see the snow on the earth, but there was not even a sky in the earth and the sea, how could there be snow?

In the face of the anomaly, Charles, as the captain of the ship, immediately issued countermeasures. "Everyone is in the cabin and leaving the sea at full speed. ”

Bright yellow "snow" piled up on the deck, and the atmosphere on the narwhal began to tense.

With a muffled sound, black smoke began to billowing up from the chimney.

Charles, who was nervous, stared at the dark sea, not even blinking.

"Huh~" "Huh~" The whistling sound sounded, and the sea began to wave.

"This ...... Is this the wind? Is the earth and the sea winding? Are we approaching the entrance to the surface?" a ridiculous thought came to his mind.

Charles suddenly thought of something, his pupils shrank to a very small size, he grabbed the red lever and pulled hard, and above the cockpit, the searchlight that should have been flat on the sea quickly rose and shot into the sky.

Charles rushed out the door to look up, and in an instant he trembled inexplicably. A fear that he had never felt before gripped him.

Directly above the narwhal, a giant eye that covered half of the sky stared straight at him.
