Chapter 072: The Mystery of the Iceberg
The third link of the dungeon, the main task given by the system at present is - [Investigate the truth about the sinking of the Titanic in 1912].
To accomplish this task, Anson Deer and Asuka wander around the ship.
........
........
December 26, noon, Titanic, deck G, a room in lower class.
"Hello, Big Ghost." Anson Lu touched the back of his head, "That, I just want to ask, how did the Titanic collapse back then?" ”
"I don't know, I just heard a loud noise, and then something went through the cabin, and the sea filled the place, and it flooded me, and I couldn't escape." The ghost turned its head, revealing a mutilated face.
Asugi's shoulders shook slightly, and she took two steps back, looking out the window at the sky.
"Oh, okay, excuse me." Anson Deer sighed and walked out of the room as well.
"How?"
Anson Deer said, "It seems that the ghosts in the lower class have a similar story, saying that they burp when they don't see anything." ”
"Is it such an exaggeration, there were not quite a lot of survivors of the Titanic shipwreck back then."
"Hell knows what this system is up to." Anson Deer cursed and walked to the light elevator, "Let's go, let's go to the upper deck and see, maybe they know something." ”
"Okay." Asuka Uesugi walks into the elevator.
The elevator closed, the cheeks of the teenager and girl were shrouded in a faint orange-yellow halo, and the cozy jazz music sounded inexplicably in the elevator, which seemed to be the intentional action of the game system.
Deck D.
Anson Deer walked to the middle cabin, found a living room, and looked at a ghost sitting inside, the ghost was dressed decently, it was crossing Erlang's legs, reading the newspaper.
"That, this ghost brother, I want to ask you, do you remember the details of the collapse of the Titanic?"
"No, no, don't remind me of that, let me forget about that!" The ghost put down the newspaper and held his head and roared, "The dragon, the dragon, it brought the iceberg, it destroyed everything!" ”
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
Anson Deer and Asuka tilted their heads at the same time, and their heads collided together.
"Sick?" Asuka covered her head and asked with a frown.
"No, can you stop learning from me?" Anson Lu rubbed his head.
He turned around and continued to ask the ghost: "Big brother, what do you mean by dragon, don't you mean that in the Atlantic Ocean in 1912, there was a dragon, right?" ”
"That's right, absolutely yes, it's that it destroyed the previous Titanic." The ghost said.
Anson Deer and Asuka subconsciously glanced at each other.
"What does that dragon look like?" Asuka asked.
"White scales, icy steam..... "The ghost said slowly, "it created that iceberg, and I couldn't escape from it." ”
The two people in the living room were stunned at the same time.
"Wait, white scales?" Asuka Uesugi put her hand on her chin, "It's not going to say ......"
"In the World Boss preview screen," Anson said in a daze, "the dragon that is coming to Tokyo?" ”
"What the hell do you mean..... Asuka frowned, "The dragon that might only appear in June 2026 suddenly ran to the Atlantic Ocean in 1912 and destroyed the Titanic?" ”
"Big brother, what else do you know?" Anson Lu took a deep breath and asked.
"I don't know anything anymore." The ghost's appearance was painful, it clutched its head tightly, and it was about to pinch the back of its head to bleed, "Don't come and ask me, I beg you!" ”
"Okay." Anson Lu was silent for a moment, "It's okay, we have other people to ask." ”
"Is there a possibility that the system is teasing us?" Asuka said indifferently: "This Titanic is originally fake, and these ghosts are also played by the system, it just wants us to guess, in fact, these things have nothing to do with the real event of 1912." ”
"Have you ever wondered why you have dragon blood?" Anson Deer asks:
"Your father and mother are silent about it, but the answer is obvious now."
Uesugi Asuka was silent for a moment and said, "You want to say.... Evolution games have been around for many years? ”
"Perhaps." Anson Deer thought for a moment and said:
"It's ridiculous anyway, we humans are like animals in captivity, and those guys standing in the sky have casually changed our world."
"So, the wreck of the Titanic is really related to an evolutionary event?"
"It's just that there is this possibility, don't guess, let's finish the third part of the copy."
The two walked into the light elevator and chose the B deck.
The B-deck is mostly full of upper-class guests, so even if these ghosts die, they are still dressed and talk elegantly.
Anson Deer had explored the Titanic with Asuka before, and knew the location of these ghosts very well, and their behavior would not change most of the time.
The two went to one of the first-class rooms and found a ghost playing with a telescope.
"Well, Mr. Telescope." Anson Deer spoke.
"What's the matter, kid."
The ghost turned its head and opened its blood-stained mouth with a gentle smile.
"How did the Titanic sink?"
Come straight to the point.
The ghost retracted his smile and his expression gradually became solemn, "It was a night, I couldn't fall asleep, I looked up at the window, and all of a sudden, a huge object appeared in the sky. ”
"That huge object...."Asugi asked, "is it a dragon?" ”
Anson Deer seemed to want to ask the same question, so his lips that had just opened closed back.
"No, that's not a dragon, I don't know if it's a scale, or what, it emits a strong light!" The ghost excitedly said, "That's not a dragon, but it brought a dragon!" ”
"Huh?"
Anson Deer and Asuka glanced at each other again.
The situation seems to be getting more and more complicated.
"What else?" Anson Deer asked, "What else do you see, sir?" ”
"Not only the dragon, but I used a telescope to see a teenager." The ghost said hoarsely:
"There are shadows flowing around the boy, and he is like a god, manipulating treacherous forces, leading an army that descends from the sky, and starting a battle with the dragon in the Atlantic."
"Hey, hey, what's this unfolding?" Asuka was stunned.
"I don't know," Anson Lu asked..... "sir, what else is there about that young man?" ”
"I didn't have time to observe too much, the dragon unleashed its power, it created an iceberg, and the Titanic hit the iceberg head-on, and nearly half of the people died instantly." The ghost said hoarsely.
"I'll just say it, it's." Asugi Uesugi shrugged, "It's just a story made up by the system for elementary school students." ”
Anson Lu put his hand to his chin and concluded:
"First a huge object that glows, and then this object brings a dragon, and a teenager, and he also has an army that falls from the sky?"
"Wait...."
The ghost suddenly took two steps back, its shattered pupils shrinking to the extreme, and blood flowed out of it.
"It's you..... It's you, the one who brought the dragon, it's you! ”
Asuka was stunned for a moment, couldn't help but cover her mouth with her hands, and held back a laugh:
"Ha, haha..... How weird and funny, Anson Deer, it turns out that you were a dragon slayer warrior in 1912? ”
"It's you, I can't be mistaken!" The ghost said.
"What are you kidding, big brother?" Anson Lu narrowed his eyes, "I'll go, my aunt and grandmother weren't born in 1912, and I can't be embarrassed for a century!" ”
"I saw it with a telescope." The ghost clenched the telescope in his hand and said in a shocked tone:
"That's you..... There's absolutely nothing wrong with that! ”
"Poofhahahaha!" Asuka slammed the wall and laughed harder.
[The first half of the third link of returning to the Titanic has been completed, and the second half of the link has been ushered in - guarding the Titanic and completely eliminating the iceberg ahead. 】
