The Third Reich of Elsie is 3,000 years old, and the stars are right.

The spiritual tide is the guide, the world is the standard, and the worlds overlap.

April 15.

Mid-Sea of Death.

"The world, is it really the world of human beings?"

Charles Kurt wakes up in excruciating pain, the tearing sensation in the depths of his soul spreads to his body, and as the pain lessens, his mind gradually unseals.

Concentrate your will to shield your body from tearing, squirm your throat to relieve dryness, and thrust over and over again to try to get rid of the deep hallucination.

With a shattering sound in the depths of his soul, his consciousness suddenly cleared.

Feeling everything around him, his body slumped on the rough floor, and his last memory rested on the black ring that his arm had sketched rapidly.

Humid air, shaking bumpy floors, dim kerosene lamps, small closed rooms.

The surrounding walls are covered with steel plates with strange patterns.

In terms of details, it can be seen that some parts of the steel plates are new, and the older ones are full of claw marks and fire marks.

......

The shaking floor made him realize that he should be on a sea ship, and as his hearing gradually returned, the trembling of the steam engine and the cacophony of people became clearer in his ears.

The mind picks up all the information available, and the ticking pendulum evokes the mind.

Charles struggled to his feet.

"Who brought me here?"

Catching a glimpse of his pale hands and ten slender fingers, his mind throbbed again, and his thoughts were intermittent.

"How is that possible?"

He bit his lip hard, and his divergent thoughts still felt great pain, this was not a dream!

"Walk through the first step and analyze your environment. ”

"On board. ”

..................

The brows were slightly furrowed, and there were not too many surprises about the crossing, after all, the black rings outlined on the earth showed mystery and weirdness!

Observing his body, he wanted to find any clues.

The blue clothes he wore were supposed to be the clothes of a Navy crew, but he had never seen such a retro-style Navy uniform in his memory.

"Navy?"

On the iron-clad wooden table in the room, there is a black cone that resembles a pyramid, and the intricate patterns make it slightly mysterious.

I don't know the material of the incense is lit, I can't see what is in the depths of the incense mist, and I feel like I hear the sound of the murmuring in a trance!

At the boundary of the illusory layers of incense, it is as if some being is watching, incomprehensible and indescribable.

The mind exploded with a buzz, and it was in a trance.

The vision is about to be infected with illusions, and everything is distorted and blurred!

Charles and Him seemed to live at different latitudes in time, distorted as little paper figures under their gaze!

Instinctive fear stiffened his body, unable to move, his pale face was full of fear, and he quickly moved his will to fight the illusion, the illusion faded, and the vision was clear again.

............

The strong sense of gaze slowly receded, the trivial and complicated memories broke through the mental defense, and the violent sting suddenly came!

Stumbling and having to collapse on the wooden table, bracing himself against the tearing pain.

When the storm of spiritual fragments gradually subsides, memories roll and emerge, this is not the earth, but an unknown world!

The sea under your feet is called the Sea of Death, and it is only known that when the ancestors went out to sea, there were often strange corpses in this area, bringing incomprehensible events.

The more acute facial features felt another sense of unknown peeping, as if they were judging, scrutinizing, "Calm down! Sure enough, everything was premeditated?"

............

There was a knock on the door, and a deep middle-aged male voice came, "Is the ceremony complete?"

Charles could vaguely remember the man's name, Belen, a friend of Lancerport.

Both were originally from Wales in the Elsie Empire, and were uprooted by the vigorous enclosure movement (mining version, the history of the enclosure movement ended in the early 19th century).

Recruited into the Empire's military call, he joined the army and went to the chaotic colonies to suppress the independence movement in the colonies.

After a month of hastily training soldiers aboard the Crow's troop carrier, the Charles unexpectedly demonstrate their adaptability to the sea.

Due to the attrition of the naval battle some time ago...... , the lucky ones were incorporated into the Sea Furrow seamen, and they didn't have to go to the meat grinder of the colonial battlefield.

............

"This military operation is to protect the troop carrier to go to the mainland colony of North McCann to suppress the uprising!"

"And the reason I'm in this room is that every seafarer prays to the gods he worships for peace. ”

"Claw marks on the steel plate. ”

"Fire burn marks. ”

"Damn mutilated memories. ”

Charles rubbed his eyes, confusion and confusion welled up in his heart.

"The cone is a relic of my father. ”。

"There should be a six-pointed star in the palm of your hand. ”

"Now the six-pointed star is gone. ”

"Hexagram?"

The truth is getting more and more complicated, put away his overflowing thoughts, and move his steps.

Put his black cpine in his jacket pocket, look around, open the hatch, and see the angry eyes of several crew members standing outside the cabin, and say sorry ...... a few times.

Outside the hatch, the sense of peeping is stronger, the heart is beating violently but pretending to be nothing, and the steps are steady and firm.

Walking through the cabin and up the wooden staircase to the deck, Belen smiled wryly and followed Charles to the deck.

The warm sea breeze is blowing in your face, and the blue waves are surging.

As soon as you step onto the deck, the frightening sense of peeping fades, and the sudden change makes your body sway .......

............

"Charles, why haven't you come out for so long?" said Belen, dressed in an earthy brown army uniform, carrying a large marching baggage and a flintlock breech rifle, "nothing. ”

Belen continued to ask, "Did you get the revelation?" Leaning on the railing, Charles looked a little more serious, but did not answer.

Shrugging his shoulders, he could understand Belém, in this age of change, where steam breaks through ignorance, the human heart is dependent on illusions, and there is always a desire to find another way to reach out to the power beyond the mundane.

The ritual materials and the real names of the deities that are prayed to the deities are beyond the reach of ordinary people in their lifetime...... (This is what most of the world has in common).

There was still a tear and soreness on his skin, and he slowly held on to the railing, and there were some things that Charles couldn't say, the god of death of the original faith was called Moke, and he was the only god among all the gods who could know the name.

The Elsie Empire extremely suppressed the power and faith of the Death Stranger, and was immediately guillotined as soon as it was discovered.

Charles shook his head in regret and tiredness, his spirit was not good...... The palpitations are still lingering.

Belen suppressed the doubts in his heart, and planned to ask Charles again in the evening.

............

Stand on the deck and ponder.

Countless thoughts came to mind, and my eyes flickered.

"Someone is watching for something strange in the cabin! No one notices why they collapsed. ”

"The water in this world is very deep, there are gods and spirits, and there are also strange powers!"

"The black cone is obviously a strange thing, why wasn't it checked out when it came to boarding?"

Covering your dry throat, coughs coming out of your mouth.

"The communal incense in the cabin is the key to communicating with the Divine Residence, and it's no wonder that few people can communicate with each other. ”

"It should be a stranger who is looking at me, but the stranger estimates that something is wrong, and the official attitude of squeezing the stranger's faith but not being afraid of retaliation is enough to prove that there is something hidden. ”

"The most important thing is that I lost a lot of memories. ”

Charles stood on the crowded deck and clutched his head in pain, his vision was exceptionally clear, there must be something strange in the crowd!

"Find him!"

Say hello to the lookout, endure the soreness and strain of the body, climb the watchtower and look around, the bustling army huddles together, looking for him like a needle in a haystack.

The gaze reflects the surging sea.

"Two iron-wood mixed steam ships, eight iron-wood mixed troop carriers, and an all-wooden coal carrier, the warships use the most advanced propellers, and the troop carriers use paddle wheeler propulsion. ”

"The difference between a warship and a troop carrier is not only in the power and speed of the warship, but also in the coverage area with the ironclad and the level of artillery. ”

"There were about 800 men on each troop carrier, and the whole fleet transported a mixed field division of more than 7,000 men, led by Vice Admiral Gall, to the colonies to suppress the rebellion. ”
