Chapter 448: Family

As Charles hovered over the dome five hundred meters to the right of the giant gate, he could see the things clearly, which were broken stone pillars on which the Foundation had built an upside-down city.

If this upside-down city was still there, it must have been very grandiose, but unfortunately with the passage of time, there are only some ruins left of the city now.

"Huh?" Charles, who had found something, climbed onto a pillar and looked closely, the sharp incision on it was unusual, it was not a naturally weathered notch.

The incision reminded him of his former enemies, those giant praying mantises.

This upside-down city did not fall on its own, but was destroyed by those praying mantises.

"It seems that those praying mantis probably have other colonies above the dome, and I hope that the next time they go up, they won't come to cause trouble. ”

Charles quickly observed for a while, and after seeing that there were no other clues, his wings quickly flew back.

"Captain, what did you find on it?" asked Deep, curious.

However, he found that his captain seemed to be in a depressed mood, and did not want to deal with himself too much.

"Stop talking nonsense, pull anchor and set sail. With that, Charles turned and walked towards the captain's quarters.

Dipper looked at the pitch-black sky in surprise and raised his foot to kick Norden's shin next to him, "Did you hear that?" ”

"Yes!," Norden shouted nervously, and quickly rushed in the direction of the windlass.

Dip shook his head helplessly, this kid's habits seem to be going to change for a while.

Dipper gave a few words to the remaining old sailors, then turned and walked towards the cockpit.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw the second mate at the helm, Knona, drinking, "Man, it's your class now, you still dare to drink?"

"Just one bite, just one bite, this wave is a bit big, I'm a little dizzy. Knona, the finance minister of Hope Island, said as he put the bottle in his arms.

Compared with the youth of a few years ago, his belly has risen now, and he has a beard on his mouth, and he looks like a rich middle-aged man.

"If the captain catches you, you're dead. Dipp gloated as he looked at the charts hanging on the wall.

"What happened to the previous second officer? Why did the captain suddenly let me go up to the top of the boat, I haven't touched the steering wheel in years. The first second officer, Knona, asked.

Feuerbach was so badly wounded that the captain told him to rest. ”

Knona suddenly sighed. He looked at the sailors who were busy on deck and said, "It looks like the crew has changed except for the old faces, even Lily is gone, and I remember the cute way she stood on the table and stamped her feet to argue with me." ”

As soon as he said this, the atmosphere in the cabin suddenly became a little depressed.

"Forget it, let's not talk about these unhappy things, I heard that your wife recently gave birth to another son?" Dipp dippled lightly.

At the mention of his new child, a faint smile suddenly appeared on Knona's face. "You can't talk about this kind of topic, and you can only understand the difference when you actually have your own children. ”

Knona chatted with Deepp as he controlled the ship towards the designated coordinates.

There were still seven days to go from the island to his destination, and when he found the so-called key, his mission was complete.

When the clock on the wall turned to 12 o'clock, Bandage and another old sailor entered the cockpit, and Deepp and Knona were off duty.

As a boatswain, Deeppin doesn't have a room of his own, but he has a separate cubicle, so he can at least have his own privacy

Without his wife's urging, Dip didn't bother to wash up.

He planted his head on the pillow and closed his eyes, Deep's sleep was so good that after a few seconds, the room remembered the sound of his long breathing.

After some time, the groggy Deep's consciousness slowly returned, and he seemed to be back in the city of deep divers in the abyss again.

His family is surrounded by him, and he is constantly whispering to himself. "Deep... Come on... The Lord wants to summon you... We need your help..."

In his sleep, Deep's brow furrowed and his head wagged, he struggled desperately, but his family became tighter and tighter, and finally merged with his body.

"My dear brother...... Are you as a diver...... You can't escape...... It's our fate......"

In the dark depths of the sea, Dip saw a pair of extremely terrifying scarlet eyes, which suddenly appeared directly in front of him, glaring at him angrily.

Deepp's eyes suddenly opened in fright, and the light from the oil lamp on the table next to him quickly pulled his sanity back to reality.

When he realized that it was just a nightmare, the panting Deepp breathed a sigh of relief.

He sat up from the bed, pulled out his pocket watch and looked at it.

When I found out that I only slept for more than three hours. When he was about to fall asleep again, at the door, a row of wet footprints made his body extremely tense in an instant.

It was a very special kind of footprint, and humans could not step on such footprints except for deep divers.

For a moment, Dip felt a chill rush to the back of his head, and he immediately stood up and rushed out of his compartment.

There weren't any footprints in the hallway outside, as if they just appeared out of nowhere.

After a moment of thought, Deepp immediately rushed towards Charles's captain's room.

As soon as he slid down the iron staircase to the third floor, he saw his captain rushing out from behind with a flesh revolver.

"Boatswain, hurry up, the rats tell us that something has come aboard, something from the bottom of the sea, and it smells very bad. ”

Hearing this, Deep's face showed a trace of bitterness, "Captain, maybe I know what those are, that's my family, they're coming for me." ”

Hearing Deep's words, Charles's expression was unusually solemn, he understood what the other party's words meant, this was a major matter related to the life and death of the entire narwhal.

Charles quickly rushed to the cockpit and said to the first mate at the helm: "Tell below, the turbines are directly overloaded! Something is following us underwater! Throw them off directly!"

Smoke rose from the chimney, and the narwhal's speed quickly increased.

Charles slammed Deepp and roared, "Don't be stupid, go! Wake everyone up and take up arms!"

Dip nodded immediately and rushed out.

Charles looked at the dark sea in front of him, his brows furrowed, he didn't know what the other party's purpose was this time, but it was obvious that they didn't come here to make friends.
