Duncan looked at Alice quietly, and Alice looked at Duncan with a straight face. After a moment, Duncan rubbed his eyebrows first, and felt a strange emotion come to his heart, and the sense of disobedience in his heart could not be dissipated for a long time.

It's obviously the same face, how can it show such a different temperament

"Captain," Alice asked, blinking curiously at Duncan's reaction, leaning over

"Why don't you speak? Did I say something wrong? ”

"No, it's not your problem." Duncan shook his head, freed from the jumbled thoughts, and then suddenly raised his eyelids and looked at the figure in front of him with a solemn and serious expression.

"Ris, have you ever wondered about your connection to the Frost Queen?" Alice was stunned for a moment, raised her hand and grabbed the skull, and seemed to think about it very seriously before she said uncertainly: "I'm curious, but then I thought about it, it seems to be a not very important thing~~ I didn't think about it anymore." Duncan was a little surprised: "Isn't it important?" ”

"The Queen of Frost is the Queen of Frost, I am me, no matter how great that queen is, it is her business, and I don't understand it." Alice said with a serious face.

"I've got what I'm good at, and I'm enjoying every day now, and that's good, and I've heard Mr. Morris say that it's possible for everyone in this world to find someone else who looks almost exactly like themselves, so I'll assume that the Queen of Frost is the one who looks exactly like me, even though I'm actually a doll," Duncan listened to the doll quietly, and looked at the natural and satisfied look in her eyes when she mentioned the present day, and his heart suddenly touched something.

Perhaps, she is really just a special false copy made by the old gods of the deep sea, perhaps, she is really just the result of the strange fusion of Ray Nora who fell into the deep sea and the guillotine, or perhaps, there are more secrets hidden in her, secrets that even Renora can't imagine, but as Ellie herself said, it doesn't matter, she is not smart, but she is very happy, she has many things that she does not understand, but she has never felt nervous and afraid of these overly complicated things.

She was born and lived in a world full of weirdness, and this weird world was the most ordinary in the world for her

Normal. She explores, is curious, looking forward to everything that is new and unknown to her, like a child who opens her eyes in the sun.

There are countless mortal beings, but even the bravest warriors, the most learned wise, and the most devout believers cannot see the world through the eyes of Alice.

Duncan suddenly had a feeling that in this strange world where everyone is afraid and everything is distorted, Alice, a puppet, looks like a human more like anyone else.

Just like the ordinary human beings he saw in another world, in a world where there were no anomalies and visions, no gods and weirdness, and he walked calmly in the sun.

"Boats?" Alice's curious voice rang out again.

"Why are you in a daze again?"

"Nothing," Duncan shook his head.

"I just suddenly think you're actually very wise." Alice was slightly stunned when she heard Chuanchang's compliment, and her face gradually showed a happy look: "Hehe" She didn't know why Chuanchang suddenly boasted that she had

"Wisdom", I didn't even think that I could have any wisdom, but since the boat was so boastful, it must be something to be happy about.

After praising this sentence, Deng Xing thought for a moment, and then slowly reached to his side - a cold touch came from his fingertips, it was the brass key.

In the deep sea, the submersible is slowly rising

It will take some time for the "recovery", and the Frost Queen Renora has revealed a lot of information to herself, but there are still many gaps or ambiguities in that information that need to be confirmed by herself.

The Brass KeyA sane Preacher of the End had put it in the hands of Lenora, and even the latter's abilities were unable to figure out the true nature of the key

"Essence". Alice, meanwhile, looks like it's totally

Is it still a coincidence that the wrong clone born under the "coincidence" has a corresponding keyhole on its body?

The last preacher foresaw what was happening today? It's still the tentacles of the ancient gods sleeping in the deep sea

"Alice" retrieved Rey Nora's memories and left the keyhole on Alice, perhaps it was time to try.

"Alice" Duncan suddenly raised his head and looked at the puppet in front of him with a solemn expression.

"You come with me"

"Huh?" Alice was stunned for a moment, but immediately reacted and got up to follow

"Oh, okay."

"Take the helm" Duncan got up from behind the chart table, gave a command to the goat's head, then took a light breath and turned to walk in the direction of the captain's bedchamber.

Alice followed Duncan into the bedroom door for some reason, and then turned back and closed the door at the behest of the other party.

Turning to look at Duncan curiously

"Boats? What's next? Deng Yi silently took the key in his hand and looked at the puppet quietly: "I hope to test this key." When Alice heard this, she was suddenly a little surprised: "Huh? Didn't you say that this key could be dangerous? Could it be that the soul of the Frost Queen or something is housed inside? "Now that the hidden danger has been eliminated, Duncan said calmly, I just ruled it out personally.

"Oh." Alice said immediately. Then he turned around and fumbled for the zipper on his back clothes, without the slightest hesitation.

"Then I'll untie my clothes first"

"Just leave the keyhole exposed." Although he had been thinking about this solid-headed puppet for so long, Deng Yi was also a little embarrassed by this guy's unhesitating behavior at this time, and he subconsciously reminded him.

Then there was some surprise.

"You're not afraid?"

"Captain, you said there are no hidden dangers." Alice said, turning her head. And you're going to wind me up yourself, and you'll definitely protect me if something happens, right?

"Yes, I will protect you" After a brief pause of two or three seconds, Duncan nodded slowly, then raised his finger and tapped on a round stool next to the bed.

"Sitting on this, I'm not sure what's going to happen after the winding, it's better not to stand."

"Oh." Alice said yes and obediently sat down at the round stool, the back of the doll with her back to Duncan had been untied, and Duncan finally saw it

The appearance of the "keyhole". In the center of Alice's white porcelain-like back, the keyhole was suddenly embedded there, and there was a circle of fine and gorgeous patterns, with a texture like bronzing, surrounding the keyhole, Duncan lowered his head, and glanced at the size and shape of the brass key in his hand It was exactly the same as the shape, a strange feeling floated from his heart, mixed with a little nervousness, Duncan took a breath lightly, controlled the strangeness in his heart, and slowly approached the round hole.

"Pris"

"Huh?"

"Don't be afraid." The clockwork key entered the keyhole without hindrance, and then a clear and clear sound sounded in Deng's ears, as if it were really connected to his head

There was a soft "click", and some mechanism was activated, but it was not an ordinary clockwork mechanism, and a slight force came from the fingertips.

Duncan instantly realized that the clockwork key was turning on its own, and it slowly turned to a horizontal position, followed by another call

"Click", the next second everything in front of me began to change rapidly, light and shadow were collapsing and reorganizing_ The senses were undergoing transformation and reset, and it was the familiar slight vertigo, and it was the kind of seeming

"Spiritual walking".

The feeling of "transfer", I didn't have time to sigh in my heart

"Again." Duncan found that everything around him had stabilized again, and he was in an old, ornate, but eerie, eerie grand mansion, with a wide and empty classical and solemn hall, with high columns lining the sides of the hall supporting the gloomy roof above like dark clouds, and narrow and high windows embedded in the walls full of patterns and reliefs, and the windows seemed to be crawling with dark thorns.

There was a chaotic light and shadow floating outside the thorn bushes, and in this eerie mansion, there were voices from time to time, whispering, intermittent laughter, footsteps walking across the floor, and even strange and vague music that seemed to be going on somewhere.

Deng frowned slightly, his gaze swept over the gloomy and old mansion, and something flashed in the corner of his eye.

Deng Bei quickly looked over there, but only saw an empty corner, but he was sure that he had just seen something, there was a figure that looked like a maid in a white dress, the figure had no head, and the neckline of the blouse was only a bare neck.

Duncan stood in the empty hall for a moment, carefully observing his surroundings, sensing the strange unsettling aura floating in the air, and then took a step towards the spiral staircase at the end of the hall.

He had to figure out what the hell this was and why it was for Alice

After "winding up", will you be brought here? He walked up the spiral staircase, as if the stairs that had been abandoned for countless years creaked strangely at his feet, and as he walked, a sense of familiarity suddenly appeared in Duncan's mind.

He stopped abruptly, his eyes wide open at the furnishings and styles of the mansion, and he knew what that familiarity was all about, the room where the Frost Queen Renora slept.
