Walk through the structure of the Ark and wander on the continent of Terra

"This is not the state that a ghost ship that has been floating on the sea for 60 years should be in. There are definitely survivors on this ship." Flash Shield complained about the clean hall, and was the first to leave with a shotgun and a battle shield. Entering, there was a rustling sound coming from the corridor deep in the hall, and the motion detector showed that there were many objects similar in size to large dogs moving around at high speed.

"Historical signal, everyone is ready to fight!"

……

At the same time, on the bridge of the Fool, behind the luxurious gauze curtain, half of the body had been transformed into a sea heir, but he still maintained his human appearance and clear human eyes, wearing a three-cornered hat. Captain Suo was sitting on the luxurious and noble commander-in-chief's throne on the flagship of the Golden Fleet. He was stroking this throne that he had sat on for countless days and nights as if stroking all his precious memories. Not only his throne, but also the last dignity and glory of that era on this giant ship that symbolizes the old Iberian era.

"Garcia, hide better, let me deal with those outsiders." Alfonso squeezed out such an instruction from his throat, and what he responded to was a rustling behind his throne.

On the other side, on the middle deck of the Fool, a Liboli woman with burns on her body and an extremely weak condition was leaning in the center of a group of sea heirs. She gently stroked a thin sea heir next to her.

The thin Hai Hei trembled and used the onomatopoeia organ that had just developed to outline the human language, "Scaleless compatriots, prey on me, recovery, injury, group, continuation, need, wisdom."

83. Fool's Song part.2-Heart-killing

It is worth mentioning that in the original story, the knight engaged in an eternal battle with the sea, the knight riding a sea monster horse and launching an eternal charge towards the waves, does not appear here.

According to the records reviewed after the incident, he happened to be active in the waters near Glenfalot when the Basilosaurus Kesheela appeared. In the aftermath of the microwave defuse bomb, this persistent knight who never stops, forever stopped. Down his steps.I don’t know if this is a kind of sadness or a kind of relief.

Returning to the present, the special operations team quickly moved through the large and complex internal passages of the Fool. The equipment and various reconnaissance drones they carried could survey and map the complete internal map ahead of the team's advance, and mark out the All potential threats, and with the huge intelligence and equipment advantages, the battle between the team and Haiji went extremely smoothly.

However, this smoothness does not make people feel at ease. Scans showed that there is a huge Haisei signal group on the Fool, and a large number of Haisei nodes at all levels are still expressing activity, and the targets encountered by several teams along the way have increased. Together, it's just a fraction of them.

"Taqiangka, you take someone to cover Dario to the bridge, and everyone else, continue to advance. I have observed a large number of sea descendants concentrated in the middle of the middle of the Fool. The signals of the Deep Sea Bishop and the signals of the sea descendants group have overlapped. It is very likely that they have already begun to fuse, and a new Haihei mastermind-level node is about to appear, so be mentally prepared to deal with dangerous battles."

"receive."

"Close ground flying squadron, maintain a fire blockade on the deck of the Fool. If any heirs want to escape from the ship through the deck, don't hesitate."

"Understood, you can attack the target at any time."

……

"Devotion, sacrifice, this kind of altruism without asking for anything in return are praised as virtues..." The weak Liboli woman endured the severe pain of burns all over her body. The power of that round of electromagnetic bombing was too intense, even if she was just The aftermath of the bombing during the escape affected her. Even though she had crossed the dividing line between the offshore and the distant sea at that time, the high-temperature water vapor that oscillated and spread still caused serious damage to her.

But at this time, she had extensive burns all over her body. She seemed not to care about the bone-crushing pain. She continued her narration, "Listen to me, messenger, sacrifice is not noble, and dedication is not a virtue. You don't need to understand what sacrifice is." , what is dedication? Only mediocre people would think that Haiji becoming closer to people is a kind of evolution. No...ahem...this is just tolerance for more possibilities. Even young claw beasts can In order to protect our companions from dying at the hands of natural enemies, why do we have to praise this virtue repeatedly? People only praise rare things, use morality to cover up altruism, try to justify their own utilitarianism, and think they are better than others. The beast is noble.

"This is so...ahem...what a ridiculous self-flattery. It is clear that the barriers between countries and races are tearing this land apart. 'Life has never been disordered', my messenger, this is when I leave the land. , seeking the final answer from the ocean...cough cough cough." The Liboli woman coughed violently, as if this long speech had drained her of all her strength.

Haiji was listening, thinking, and understanding. What this scaleless compatriot said was still too profound and complicated for his current mind.But the scaleless compatriot told it that it didn't need to understand, just do it.

"I beg you, remember me, free me, devour me..."

boom--!

Key to the Time Tunnel Stokes' unique gunshot sounded in the hall where Hai Hei gathered in the middle of the middle floor. The Liboli woman who asked Hai Hei to devour her, her whole body turned into crystal and floated away. The light dust restrains all the energy of the Omega Arms and uses it to destroy and destroy physical matter in the material dimension. The consequences are decisive and terrifying.

After the gunfire, Alpha let go of her hand, and the heavy pistol of the composite weapon dissipated into pieces of light in the air, while the different-bladed halberd was still nestled in her hand. The deep-sea hunters and the soldiers of the special service team filed in, and the two glorious machines marched in. The latter even expanded their front.

But Alpha raised the hand that put down the gun and made a fist in the air, signaling everyone not to fire yet.

"Human sacrifice and dedication are far more noble than the instinct of survival of beasts. This is a decision that human beings make proactively from the perspective of complete self-will and after overcoming the complex selfishness and self-interest in human beings' complex self-awareness. This is also The reason why humans can be called civilization is because beasts have never formed the basis of civilization.”

Alpha held his head high and looked at the Bishop of the Deep Sea who had turned to ashes with the most contemptuous eyes. "The hymn of mankind is the hymn of courage, and the greatness of mankind is the greatness of courage. The protection of the beasts' calves is just a necessary instinct produced by reproduction. But human beings can overcome the fear and selfishness in their nature, and use courage and sacrifice to pave the way forward for their successors. This is something that people like you who cannot even understand why human civilization is called civilization cannot accurately predict The greatness that we know but cannot understand at all.”

Everyone was listening in silence, and the heirs of this group of turtles in the jar were also listening in silence, listening to Alpha's mocking of the deep-sea bishop who had been killed mercilessly by her on the spot, "You don't even know what the true existence of human civilization is, and what it is facing." You don’t know the problem at all, but you are still searching for salvation and answers in a delirium. Should I call you ridiculous or pathetic?”

Alpha let out a long sigh. If Amaya, the Bishop of the Deep Sea, blamed hypocrisy and flattery for the many sufferings faced by the vast number of people living on the continent, the conflicts between countries, and between races.It can only be said that as a literary worker and translator living in a corner of Iberia, who seems to be exploiting but is actually isolated, and an anti-socialist who denies everything about human society, her understanding of the world is limited to what she sees. The content on the books and text carriers that I have come into contact with.

You can't vehemently criticize her shallowness and narrow-mindedness, because her vision and understanding of the world are ultimately limited to this, which is sad, but not pitiful.She died today, before the last step of self-sacrifice that made her most narcissistic. She could not argue a word with her enemies before she died. She could only let the remains of the remains be left in powder to listen to the ridicule of her enemies. In the end, it was all her fault.

"I thought you would argue with her, but I didn't expect that these words were said after killing her and mocking her."

"There's no need to chat with terrorists, doctor." Alpha replied with a smile, and at the same time she released her fists raised in the air. In an instant, gunfire, lasers and violent machinery began to fire for this group of people in the hall. Haiji, give the last rites.

"What you said makes sense..." But the doctor still felt that Alpha's killing of people and their heartache was a bit... so satisfying!

84. Fool's Song part.3-Living Legend, Alfonso

The large group of heirs that invaded the Fool were quickly cleared by the excessive firepower deployed by Alpha. Then the near-Earth vehicle began the second round of transportation. Several tons of apoptotic agents were sent to the Fool and decontaminated. The troops planned to use the last moment before Haiji could react to squander the last medicine and cleanse this precious golden age legacy.

At the same time, the Grand Inquisitor and his party arrived at the captain's hall of the Fool. When they saw the old captain sitting on the golden throne on the bridge and wearing a three-cornered hat, the Grand Inquisitor clenched his hands. gun.

After boarding the ship, the Grand Inquisitor did not continue to use the window laser gun borrowed from Alpha's armory, but replaced it with his own hand cannon. Although the weapons provided by Alpha were extremely powerful, they were not Iberian after all. After boarding the Fool, the arrival of the support troops deployed by Alpha in accordance with the agreement made the group no longer worry about firepower, so what they held in their hands had better symbolize Iberia's own thing.

The sturdy old man on the throne frowned when he saw the person coming. His eyes scanned the team. There were six people wearing advanced armor that he had never seen before in that era, and holding special weapons with unique shapes. The warriors, with extremely professional movements, occupied and controlled all parts of this hall in a very short period of time.But the two Liboli they escorted should be two Iberians. They were still wearing ordinary fabric clothes and carrying swift swords and guns.

Although they were operating in the same team, the differences between the clothing and equipment of the two groups made Captain Alfonso keenly aware of the meaning.

So he stood up from the throne, the sailor's sword that had been with him for many years pinned to his waist, and one of his hands rested on the handle of the sword.He just stood on the high platform where the throne was, looking at these outsiders from a high position.

The left half of the old captain's body that had transformed into a sea heir was naked and exposed to the air. He knew that these people were trying to kill the sea heir, but he did not shy away from the traces on his body. It was as if these changes and scars added up to his still perseverance. When he wears a determined look, it is a badge that symbolizes his never-relenting fight for 60 years.

"You and the little girl next to you are Iberian, right." Seeing that the two people in front of him had not spoken for a long time, Alfonso simply stopped being silent.

Hearing the old captain in front of him, who had almost half of his body turned into a sea heir, speaking calmly and clearly, Dario secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At least after everything this ship had gone through, there was still something. A living witness, at least that glorious history, and a living carrier.

"In the Iberian Tribunal, the Grand Inquisitor, Dario, has met Captain Alfonso." Captain Alfonso is the most famous navigation expert in the golden age of Iberia and the most courageous fleet commander. Even today, 60 years later, his portrait still hangs in the library of the Inquisition and the corridors of the museum.Although his face was much older, it was still very similar to the image in those portraits, especially the fearless and determined look in his eyes. The Grand Inquisitor believed that he would not admit his mistake.

"Oh, the Iberians 60 years later actually recognize me, a guy who has died long ago."

“Your reputation, even through turbulence and disaster, still lives on in Iberia’s history, and your contribution to this country will not be forgotten by Iberia even today.”

"That's just a beautiful statement." The old captain sneered, "Compared with you and the girl next to you, I am more curious about them now. These soldiers who escorted you here. Are they the current army of Iberia?"

Although Dario had already guessed that this heroic legend would ask such a question, his question was still like a sharp long needle piercing his heart, and pain and helplessness surged at the same time. got up.

"Salute to you, Captain Alfonso, to answer your question, they are not Iberian soldiers, but from a transcendent. Like Iberia, she is alert to changes in the ocean, and after reaching an agreement with the Tribunal After cooperation, she provided sufficient military support for this operation, which also enabled us to..." Elini took a step forward, wanting to explain the origin of these friendly forces to the legend.

"Hahahahaha..." Captain Alfonso suddenly burst out laughing with unknown meaning, but this laughter made the two judges feel sad.

"Yes, I knew, I should have known, how could Iberia regain its former glory in just 60 years, or even continue to make great strides forward, I shouldn't expect them to be Iberian warriors... ..." Two lines of old tears fell from Captain Alfonso's eyes, but as he wiped them away, the legend's face returned to its original coldness.

"This..." Dario wanted to say something, but the words he was about to say finally stayed on his lips.He could see disappointment in Alfonso's eyes, but the emotion was very light.

"The golden fleet took away the essence of Iberia, and then took those essences and silenced them one by one in the disaster that swept the sea. Those creations that we are proud of, those fleets that make us think that we are invincible in the world, After all, it is just a luxurious burial for our arrogance and arrogance."

Speaking of this, the old captain who had been fighting on the sea for 60 years once again looked up to the sky and laughed. The long period of isolation finally polished his mind. At this moment, those who had at most only a vague impression of that great era. In front of his descendants, all he could do was to vent the complex emotions that he had accumulated over the past 60 years and could not be described in words.

As he said, the Golden Fleet took away Iberia's political, economic, industrial, commercial, scientific research, and many talents and technologies that are related to all the lifeblood of a country. It is the essence of Iberia, even the essence of Iberia.Compared with the remaining shipyards and factories, these elites are the priceless treasures needed to continue the glorious civilization of Iberia.

But all this disappeared with that great silence.Thousands of elites fell into the sand, and along with the glorious fleet, they turned into withered bones on the seabed. Even in the best-case scenario, it would take Iberia a hundred years to regain its original strength.Not to mention, that’s the ideal situation.Alfonso certainly knew in his heart how the Great Silence could only be limited to the destruction of the Golden Fleet. The vast territory of Iberia would definitely not be less affected than the fleet.

85. The past is gone and the glory is hard to recover.

The stare-down in the captain's hall lasted for a long time. Facing the scrutiny of a literal ancestor, Dario felt mixed emotions in his heart until he learned more about Iberia.How he hoped that at this moment, Iberia could submit a satisfactory answer to this great pioneer, an answer that "Today's Iberia is as strong as ever".

But now in Iberia, those prosperous shipyards have long been silent, and countless supporting facilities and towns have long been submerged by the tide. People living on the seaside and people living inland also have to endure increasingly harsh environmental conditions. In the hard days to come, we must also remember the glory of the past and face a life that is increasingly declining as one technology after another is lost.Everyone is struggling desperately in the face of the harsh current situation.

Not to mention allowing shipyards like Salt Wind City to resume their former vigorous construction scene. Now Iberia, the Tribunal and the army are already exhausted from ensuring that the towns near the coastline are not penetrated and destroyed by the deep-sea cult. The heroes of the various countries have joined forces to compete for hegemony, and no one has the energy and ideas to provide support to Iberia. Those alienated countries, if they do not focus their plundering eyes on the already lonely Iberia, they are already relying on It still retains the remnant power of Iberia's past.

Even if the rulers of Iberia have intentions and want to restore the grand picture of the past, one of the cornerstones of Iberia's glory, the technology brought by the Agor people from the deep sea, has long been followed by the disaster of that year. After that, Iberia's exclusion of the Agor people, and the infiltration of the Deep Sea Church and a series of destructions were gone forever.

Having lost its scholars, engineers, and skilled workers, today's Iberia, even a town like Granfalo that is relatively well-preserved and was once operated by the Inquisition as an advance camp for restarting the Eye of Iberia, has slightly declined. Among those who knew those old technologies, there was only one young man who had read the information left by his father's generation.

Thinking of this, the Grand Inquisitor felt extremely painful but sober in his heart. That glorious era was gone forever for Iberia. It would never be possible for Iberia to regain its former glory. .Even if a hundred years later, Iberia rises from the ruins and once again stands at the high point of civilization, Iberia at that time is no longer the one whose reputation spread across the entire continent and marched toward the ocean with high spirits, known as the golden age. Iberia.

"Child..." With a thud, Captain Alfonso stood the mighty sailor's sword in front of him, "Tell me, how much influence of that disaster still remains in Iberia today."

"Many, many..." In Captain Alfonso's eyes as hot as a torch, Dario knew that he could not keep it. "Many people have fallen into the worship of these sea heirs, and they are corroding the foundation of Iberia. Converting towns one after another into their own lairs and into fulcrums for the sea to attack the land, we, the Tribunal and the Punishment Army, can only struggle to survive, and the situation has never improved."

"Well... it is common for ordinary people who are ignorant to succumb to the will of these sea monsters."

"But we have never stopped," the Grand Inquisitor looked at the legend in front of him. "We do not have the powerful force of these allies, nor can we study and master the mysteries of Haihe as deeply as they do, but we have never We have stopped, the Tribunal is fighting against the Church of the Deep Sea, fighting at the seaside, fighting in the towns, fighting in the fields. As long as we have one breath left, we will devote everything we have, even our lives, to defend the purity of Iberia. and virtue.”

"We are alone and walking alone, but you still persist. At least this does not let me down."

Captain Alfonso looked at Dario seriously, his eyes were like those of an old man who has retired after success looking at his incompetent descendants. There was sternness, helplessness, and some kindness.At least, the Iberians are still the Iberians they once were, and have not yet completely surrendered and turned into those monsters that come from the salt water.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps in the corridor outside the bridge hall door, and another two groups of warriors in power armor filed in. This time, the people they surrounded were wearing equipment. , and they matched a lot.

Feilin, Vaifan, Agor, and a heavily hooded man of unknown race, and one... definitely not an Agor, but he has many characteristics of marine life, and his body looks like a mechanical structure. , but a girl who is as vivid as a real person.

What surprised him the most was that this inhuman girl was walking in front of everyone. She was holding a strange-shaped halberd in one hand and a strange coffee cup in the other hand. The white porcelain cup was fluttering with steam. Alfonso almost instantly smelled the smell of coffee that had lasted for more than 60 years.

"Sir Alpha, you are here."

"Well, the Deep Sea Bishop who absconded aboard the ship has been executed, and the heirs who invaded the ship have been almost wiped out. Captain, please forgive me for using force on your flagship without permission."

"Hmph, in this situation, do you still want me to condemn you and your men?" Alfonso snorted coldly. "I want to applaud you for helping me clean up countless sea monsters that have infiltrated my ship. It’s not too late for me to thank you.”

"It's an honor to have your understanding."

"Okay, Mr. Alpha, don't say those polite words. I think you are the extraordinary existence that little Li Boli talks about."

"Ahem, her name is Elini...and if you want to understand it this way, that's fine."

At this moment, the doctor standing behind Alpha poked Kelsey next to him with his arm. The two looked at each other, and then looked back at the legendary captain with complicated eyes.Alpha finally stopped being pretentious and openly admitted his god-like power. Maybe this was a good thing.

"I, the captain of Stutifila and the commander-in-chief of the Iberian Golden Fleet, on behalf of all the surviving sailors of the Golden Fleet, would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to you for your righteous deed. The actions of you and your men saved this ship that had been wandering for 60 years. The flagship also protects these young descendants."

Alpha nodded and accepted the respect of this legendary captain without any shirk, even if he represented the entire Golden Fleet and that bygone era, even if the last survivors of the Golden Fleet were only him and the one hidden behind his seat. The heir who still retains human sanity is half and half a human being.

86. The Fool’s Finale

The brief exchange of pleasantries gave Alpha some in-depth understanding of this legendary captain whom he had always been curious about. What kind of desperate struggle had taken place on this giant ship trapped in the ocean? His words were displayed in front of everyone.

The Iberians of the Golden Fleet have never surrendered to the Heirs. Even if the originally abundant supplies on the flagship are gradually exhausted, and even if their comrades fall one after another, the remaining people are still fighting against the Heirs who invade the flagship, until In the end, they lost all supplies and had to feed on the blood and flesh of Hai Hei, and had to execute those companions transformed by Hai Hei.

In the end, only Alfonso and First Mate Garcia, who had become a sea heir but still retained part of his human will, were left to fight.They have all paid a heavy price, and there is no way to look back. But even if they are still awake for one day, this battle with Haiji will last for one day, until both of their lives come to an end.

This reminded Alpha of a person or a group of people. She gently touched her arms. The zero-point energy laboratory in "Atlantis" located deep in the ocean was the place where Lamia was born.After the Pamish disaster broke out, the base was cut off from the outside world and lost supplies.The scientists in the base did not even know whether the human race outside had perished. They still decided to devote all the last resources at hand to a new zero-point energy experiment in order to reproduce the original Pamish virus in another reactor. They didn't look back when the scene happened, they just hoped to get some data and leave a glimmer of opportunity for future generations who might come here to overcome this disaster.

Lamia came out of there. She was just an ordinary child. She looked so stupid among the scientists.Raistris finally chose to send her into the sea, and expected and believed that she could bring back information from the land.

The sea is ruthless after all, just like the deep space, it is deep and desolate. A place far away from the land is definitely not a paradise for human beings to survive. In this kind of place, fighting against enemies beyond the reach of human beings, whether you choose to die generously, Whether you insist on fighting at all costs requires an extremely strong will.In this regard, Alpha has the highest and most sincere respect for the scientists of Atlantis and the survivors of the Stutifila.

"Alfa, I can guess what you want to do next. What you and your men, your creations, will face next is at least half of the ocean. Are you afraid? To be honest, I am very relieved. There are also like A being like you is willing to stand on the side of mankind. But the road ahead is dangerous, and even if you have something to rely on, you must not take it lightly."

"When have I ever been afraid?" Alpha answered the old man's question with a smile.

"Hahahaha, yes, yes! Those who intend to conquer the sea should have this kind of spirit. What a pity. Although I have persisted until now, I no longer have the energy to accompany you on another expedition to the sea. What a pity... ..." Captain Alfonso talked endlessly, without giving anyone at the scene a chance to interrupt. "The cells of the sea monster are biting my nerves all the time. I can't even be sure when I will be completely Sliding into the abyss of depravity, there is one last thing I can do. Before I die as a human being, I want to complete this thing that only I can do for these children."

"Children, old guy, I can't help you fight against the invasion of sea monsters, nor can I lead you back to your old glory. Let those past glories, as well as this flagship, stay in Iberia's heart. , your future path, walk out on your own feet in a down-to-earth manner."

"Now, let me hold the steering wheel for the last time, Garcia! Start our reactor and let the engine sing a song for us one last time." With the old captain's order, the man who had always been hidden behind the golden throne was almost invisible. A creature with a human appearance came out, dragging its tentacles and sea water. It made a low but cheerful sound in response to the instructions given by its eternal captain.

Everyone present watched in silence as the first mate, whose body had transformed into a sea heir, left the bridge with cheerful steps. Alpha silently took a sip of the coffee in the cup, and no one else made any move.
