Mystery: Undead don't die from passing fire

Chapter 90 None of this matters!

"I'm alone at sea, how can I save myself? Wait online, it's urgent."

Ember looked at the endless blue sea and fell into deep thought.

First, he can't sail a boat.

And it doesn't matter if he knows how to sail a boat.

Because he never had enough sailors—

The ship's original sailors had become immobile corpses.

Secondly, the mast of the ship was also broken.

Laughing to death, it doesn't move at all.

It was a fool who only knew how to 'abba aba' after finally leaving him alive.

Even his head exploded directly in front of his face.

Even if he wanted to ask, he couldn't.

So for now embers.

He really only had two options.

First, use the return bone piece.

This would send him straight back to the original campfire—

But not necessarily.

Because he hasn't tried it.

Second, ask others for help.

There are two people who can be considered for help.

The Fool and the Evernight.

According to colleagues in the Church of Evernight, the goddess rarely responds to ordinary believers.

Only thirteen archbishops and nine senior deacons have this qualification.

Furthermore.

Ember had never seen her and lacked trust in her.

In contrast, Mister Fool can be said to be responsive to every request.

So, it's up to you,

Zhou Mingrui!
"A fool who does not belong to this era;"

"You are the mysterious master above the gray fog;"

"You are the king of yellow and black in charge of good luck."

"I pray to be able to meet Mr. Hanged Man."

Ember lowered her head slightly, chanting in a low voice in Hermes language.

Although it was the first time for him, he also knew that it is best to use Hermes to recite the mantra.

……

Backlund, 15 Minsk Street.

Klein, who had just met his neighbor, lawyer Jurgen, and was entrusted by the other party to find a cat, was suddenly in a trance, and buzzing whispers suddenly sounded in his ears.

Klein, who was already familiar with this, immediately realized that someone was praying to him.

With a thought in his mind, Klein immediately set off for the gray mist to respond.

In the majestic palace like a giant's residence, his figure suddenly appeared on the top of the long bronze table, and a cluster of jumping flames was reflected in his eyes.

Klein's expression moved slightly.

This is the first time that Ember has actively prayed to him, is there any trouble?
Klein raised his right hand, spread his spirituality, and touched the cluster of flames that symbolized "embers".

With a bang, a blurry picture appeared in his mind.

On the endless sea, there is a red broken sailboat.

And beside the broken mast of the sailboat, a figure in black armor was praying to himself.

Klein confirmed the identity of the other party almost immediately, it was definitely Embers!

After all, he was quite familiar with the opponent's black knight armor.

only……

"Why did he suddenly go to sea?"

Klein just found it extremely puzzling.

He just drank coffee with Ember a few days ago, why did he suddenly run to the sea?
And this ship...

Klein looked at it calmly, and the corners of his eyes twitched.

Good guy, where is the red boat?

It was clearly stained red with blood!
Although the picture is quite blurred, it is like playing a mosaic.

But he could still vaguely make out that the corpses of sailors were all lying on the deck!
But he could also see that these people were pirates—

The banner with white skulls on the broken mast is a good proof of all this.

So, Ember is presumably a legitimate defense.

At best, it can only be regarded as overdefensive.

But this still left Klein speechless.

Because he couldn't understand Ember's behavior pattern at all.

Aren't you looking for the Dark Emperor in Backlund?
Why did he suddenly run to the sea?
He even slaughtered a boatload of people by the way.

Klein complained a few words uncontrollably, and pulled the embers into the gray mist without any hassle.

Then he touched the star representing the 'Hanged Man' spiritually, and pulled him up together.

On the Sonia Sea, in an ancient sailing ship.

Alger Wilson locked the door of the captain's cabin, and was sitting behind the sextant and navigation notes, looking for the coordinates of a certain island.

But at this moment, he felt the call of The Fool.

He didn't resist, but instinctively lowered his head and let it happen.

"Mr. Fool."

Alger stood up and saluted respectfully, but glanced at the embers from the corner of his eye.

Now is not the time for the 'Tarot Club' to be held, and no one else is present.

In other words, should Mr. 'Lover' be looking for him alone with private matters?

"Mr. The Hanged Man."

Ember said directly, "I fell into the sea due to some accidents, so I hope you can help me return to the Kingdom of Loen."

'The Hanged Man' moved slightly, nodded and agreed without hesitation, "Where is your location?"

To be able to meet the members of the Tarot Society in reality is naturally what he wishes for.

Moreover, he is worrying about some things recently.

The arrival of the 'lover' may be able to solve his urgent needs.

Alger was still thinking about it, but suddenly found that Ember beside him hadn't spoken for a long time.

This made him suddenly have an ominous premonition.

"Mr. Lover."

Alger looked a little hesitant, and asked cautiously, "Aren't you going to tell me that you don't know where you are?"

"..."

Ember was silent for a long time, and slowly said, "A few hours ago, I followed Mr. A of the Aurora Society into the painting world, and I was at sea when I came out. So, I really don't know where I am now."

"a couple of hours?"

Klein's expression changed slightly, and he suddenly reached out and tapped the table lightly to attract the attention of the two, and said slowly, "Mr. Hanged Man, what day is today?"

Alger didn't expect him to ask such a question, and he was taken aback before answering.

"November 9."

"..."

"..."

The atmosphere above the gray mist suddenly fell silent, Ember slowly said, "So, five days have passed?"

The last Tarot meeting was on August 8th.

He learned about Mr. A's information from Audrey on the same day, and went to Mr. A's residence on August 8 the next day.

And now, five full days have passed since August 8!
But in his impression.

Only a few hours have passed since then.

"What do you mean five days have passed? Does the 'lover' think that only a few hours have passed?"

The more Alger thought about it, the more frightened he became, and his scalp tingled.

"Then it's not my fault."

Klein, who was doubting himself, heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time looked at Ember with some doubts.

Does Ember's experience mean that the flow of time in the world of painting is different from that of the outside world?

"None of that matter."

Ember broke the silence and asked, "Mr. Hanged Man, can you find me?"

"..."

Klein was a little speechless, this is obviously very important information, okay?
Where is not important!
That is to say, as a "fool", he must maintain a strong character, otherwise he will have to complain about it.

"It's hard."

Alger was a little confused after sorting out his thoughts, "Mr. 'Lover', you have to know that there is more than the Sunya Sea in this world. If you are not in the Sunia Sea right now, there is nothing I can do."

Ember also fell silent.

The world is divided into the Southern Continent and the Northern Continent.

The Northern Continent is the major human kingdoms and empires, and the Southern Continent is the colony of Kitaoji.

To the west of the Northern Continent and the Southern Continent is the Misty Sea, to the east is the Sunya Sea, and in the middle is the Sea of ​​Violence.

In addition, there are the North Sea in the north of the Northern Continent and the Polar Sea in the south of the Southern Continent.

Together, they are the so-called "five seas".

If he wasn't in the Sonia Sea, Alger couldn't save him even if he wanted to.

"That's it."

Alger thought for a while, and said, "Mr. Lover, first describe what is nearby that can be used as a reference."

"No."

Ember talked for a while, then shook his head lightly, "I'm on a boat right now, surrounded by the sea, and I can't find anything that can be used as a reference."

"This……"

Alger subconsciously wanted to ask why you didn't ask the people on the boat for help?
Then he realized.

This ship is either a ghost ship, or the people on board have been killed by the other party.

"Then tell me about the ship."

Alger thought for a while, and then asked, "Does he have any iconic items? For example, what type of ship is this ship? What kind of cargo is on the ship? What is the ship's flag like?"

"The words of the banner,"

Ember pondered for a moment, "It's a white skull flag."

"The white skull flag?"

Alger frowned, the flags of many pirates were skull flags.

Although the scope of the white skull flag has been reduced, it is still difficult to distinguish.

It's a pity that Mr. "Lover" drifted to the sea through the "painting world", and he doesn't know the information of the sea, and he can't expect the other party to provide too much information.

"and many more!"

Alger seemed to realize something suddenly, and said with a strange face, "'Mr. Lover', the skull flag you mentioned, is that white skull still wearing a 'one-eyed blindfold'?"

"Yes."

Ember thought for a while, then nodded slightly.

"That's right."

Argel sighed, "There are many pirates at sea who use skulls as flags, but there is only one with a white skull flag with a one-eyed blindfold. You should be talking about the Mad Captain's 'One-Eyed Skull'."

"Crazy Captain?"

Ember suddenly froze, and hesitated, "Is that the one I asked you to investigate the slave trade?"

"Yes."

Alger nodded lightly, "Mr. 'Lover', you appeared on the sea through the painting world, and it just so happens that 'Crazy Captain' is suspected to be related to the 'painting world'. So, I think you should have appeared in the painting world by mistake." on the ship of 'Mad Captain'."

After a pause, Alger asked again, "Let me ask first, Mr. 'Lover', you should have survived, right?"

Alger had a helpless expression, because he could actually guess it without Ember saying it.

As long as the embers survived, it wouldn't mean that they didn't even know where they were.

but.

Captain Crazy is a Sequence 6 Extraordinary!
He also has a Sequence 7 Extraordinary under his command.

With such a boat of people, it can be regarded as the top of the platoon under the pirate general.

In the end, he was easily slaughtered by the 'lover'. It seems that the strength of Mr. 'lover' is terrifying!

"..."

Ember fell silent again, he felt that he should save his respect.

But I feel that the explanation is meaningless.

Everyone is dead, so what difference does it make if there are no survivors?

"of course."

Seeing that Ember didn't open his mouth, Alger thought he was embarrassed, so he said softly, "Since we already know that he is on the ship of the crazy captain, it will be easy. The crazy captain has been active in the Sonia Sea, commuting between the Loen Kingdom and East Between Balam."

"I will search south along the trade route, and I should be able to find Mr. Lover's location."

"Boats generally float along the ocean currents. If you see any islands along the way, Mr. 'Lover', remember to notify me as soon as possible so that I can confirm your location."

"also."

Alger paused for a moment, and then reminded, "Mr. Lover, if you find a passing ship, you can try to ask them to give you a ride, or you can ask them to confirm the location and wait for me to find you."

"Of course, people in the sea are not so easy-going, so Mr. 'Lover', you can also use some appropriate methods. But it's better to act lightly and keep as many survivors as possible."

"it is good."

Ember was silent for a long time, then nodded slightly.

He also knows that this is the only feasible solution at present.

Ending the exchange, Mister Fool waved the two of them back to reality.

But he himself still remained above the gray mist.

He is thinking.

Aurora is known to have a painted world.

And Ember left through the exit after only staying in the painting world for a few hours.

And the outside world has already passed five full days.

This is enough to prove that the world of painting is completely different from the flow of time in reality.

But Klein is more concerned about what Ember saw and did in the painting world.

After all, it is the painting world of the Aurora Society, and maybe the real Creator is in it.

As for Ember's experience in the painting world, Klein was really curious.

But he couldn't bear to ask, and at the same time, he was worried that if he asked too much, his flaws would be seen.

Well, to put it bluntly, I have a guilty conscience.

……

"Wait another two days."

The embers whose consciousness returned to the body looked at the sky and remained silent.

He had hoped that the 'hanged man' would investigate the slave trade at sea.

But now, although he can be sure that the 'Crazy Captain' is secretly transporting slaves for the royal family through the 'Painting World' of the Aurora Order.

But with the closure of the painting world and the death of 'Crazy Captain', the clues are cut off here.

Moreover, it was cut off by his own hands.

Ember suddenly had a headache, but at the end she felt strange.

The way Captain Mad is trafficking efforts is not by fleets, but by 'painting the world'.

what is has been confirmed is.

In addition to the "a corner of the painting world (entrance)" in Mr. A's hand, there should be another "entrance" in East Balam.

People from the Aurora Order captured slaves in East Balam and sent them to the painting world through the 'entrance'.

Afterwards, the slaves will be resold to human traffickers like Capin through the 'export' of the crazy captain.

But the problem is.

The most critical node in this is the painting world.

They can completely use the 'entry' to collect slaves by the Aurora Society, and then hand over the 'exit' to the head of the royal family to directly send the slaves to the location they need.

In this way, there is no need for two middlemen, Capin and Captain Mad.

It can not only save time, but also reduce the risk of exposure by reducing intermediate links.

There is no reason why Ember and Aurora could not think of any actions that Ember could imagine.

But they didn't do this. Instead, they deliberately added two useless programs, Captain Madness and Capin, in the middle.

Why is that?
