Chapter 586: The Stranger of Imboga (Part I)
After parting with the Eternal Night, they followed Councillor Randolph's instructions all the way south, traversing the wasteland to the Sea of the Old Days, where they found Professor Armitage in Imboja.
Since then.
On the night of the prologue, they obeyed Professor Armitage's instructions and settled in Imboga with peace of mind, as for revenge or something......
"It's not the time."
Professor Armitage said this, he understood what Randolph's death meant to these children, and he understood that after Gegero had fallen in the eternal night, these people had no home, so ...... Hatred, anger, of course, these emotions will be there, but they must also be strangled in the bottom of our hearts.
Although Armitage has always lived in the Sea of the Old and does not care much about the outside world, he has heard more than once about the rumors related to the revival of deep space, and even if he does not care about the turbulent situation in the outside world, he can guess that the current world is completely chaotic.
"Since you're friends with the Deep Space Revistraents, you can wait here in peace...... When the resuscitators have grown up completely, all new and old hatreds will come to an end. ”
This is Armitage's advice to them in the prologue, and it turns out that his opinion is right, the best option now is to stand still, otherwise it is easy to be beaten into a "deep space party" with a stick......
If they are really in the same party, it would be fine, such as Kui Nan, at least they could find a place to live in the Western Continent.
The problem is that the ingredients of the same party are not pure enough, and the distance between the south and the north is too far, if you rashly summon the people who are hanging in the eternal night, Chen Jing will not have time to save them.
Under Armitage's repeated advice, they slowly figured it out in the prologue, and their hearts occupied by hatred gradually calmed down, and they patiently hid overseas just waiting for an opportunity for revenge......
"It's not going well."
On the way to lead Chen Jing and them to Inboga, she could only honestly say that she was not good when she heard Chen Jing ask how she was doing.
"After meeting with Professor Armitage, we have been living on the island of Imporja, spending the rest of our time at home, except for the occasional trip to the shore to buy supplies or to help the professor go to sea to do some exploration work."
According to the prologue.
Inboga is a strange place, and when she first came here, she noticed that this place is not as xenophobic as other coastal towns, and although the natives who live in Imboga are also followers of Dagon, they have believed in Dagon for generations is not the octopus image of other natives...... But it doesn't matter.
It is important to note that Professor Armitage is very prestigious in Inboja, and the local natives have great respect for him, and can even have irreconcilable conflicts with some of the coastal natives over him......
But after all, this is the Old Sea, and outsiders from the interior are always susceptible to exclusion, and one Armitage was enough to make the natives of other regions look unhappy, and now there are their gangs.
So.
Here's the trouble.
In the second month after they chose to settle in Imboja, the natives from a small coastal town approached them and named them as sacrifices to Dagon.
That night, the natives disappeared, and the indigenous people of the Inboga expressed no knowledge, if not indifference, about the disappearance.
This time of settling in Inboga.
On the night of the prologue, they met a total of seven groups of natives who came to the door to find trouble.
But the end is the same every time for those natives.
Missing.
It disappeared like the world had evaporated.
"Professor Armitage is a real man." When Prologue said this, there was undisguised adoration in his eyes, just like when he first talked about Councilor Randolph, "There have been several times when we have almost done anything with those natives, but Professor Armitage has been persuading us to go back to the house and rest in peace, and leave these little troubles to him to deal with......
"Well, leave it to that old miscellaneous hair, and dispose of all those natives missing, right?" Chen Bofu smiled meaningfully.
"Actually, I don't know where those natives have gone." The tone in which Xuan Ye said this was not like a joke, and she could hear her seriousness, "At first, we all thought that Professor Armitage killed those natives, so we also asked him afterwards, and we just wanted to discuss this kind of matter with him in the future......"
As he spoke, the voice of the prelude paused slightly.
"As a result, Professor Armitage said that our ideas are too extreme, and he doesn't bother to do such things as killing, and he just let those natives go to the Old Sea to serve Dagon......"
Hearing the retelling of the explanation given by Professor Armitage at the beginning, Chen Bofu couldn't help but sneer while smoking.
"You're playing like this, aren't you afraid that the people of the Dagon Esoteric Sect will trouble you?"
"Professor Armitage has a way." Xu Ye smiled, "Although he didn't tell us in detail, I heard from the natives of Imboga that he seems to know the priests in the Dagon Esoteric Sect, and he has helped the Esoteric Sect a lot before. ”
"Then it's no wonder...... "Chen Bofu smacked his lips, "It seems that you guys are having a good time in Imboga." ”
"Actually, it's not good." "Professor Armitage is used to being here, but we are not used to it, whether it is life habits or local customs...... There is still a big gap between here and the inland. ”
"Just because of that?" Chen Jing asked curiously.
"Not exactly." Xu Ye sighed, "The main reason is that it's too uncomfortable to hide on the island and not go out, but when I go out, I'm afraid that someone will come to find trouble." ”
Xuan Ye looked back at Chen Jing, although this face was very familiar, but he could also see that there had been a lot of changes, at least the lingering youth at the beginning had completely disappeared from this face.
"I heard that you escaped unharmed after fighting Turing, and I felt like I was in a dream." Xuye sighed, "You were still a child in the eternal night, but you grew to this point in a blink of an eye......
"If you don't grow, you have to die." Chen Jing said with a smile.
"How did you get into that group of Krakens?"
Chen Bofu snuffed out the cigarette butt and threw it aside, and the whole person curled up on the wooden chair again, slowly arranging the blanket on his body.
"What about the swineherds? Why didn't I come with you? ”
"They're helping the professor dry fish in Inboga...... "Xu Ye couldn't help but show a helpless expression when he said this, "As for the group of krakens...... Actually, I didn't mean to provoke them...... I can only count me unlucky......"
The voice fell.
Xuye suddenly unzipped his raincoat and took out a strange stone seal from his inner pocket.
"Some time ago, I don't know where Professor Armitage got the information, saying that there is an ancient relic of the old era hidden under this sea area, but it is difficult to determine the specific location......
