Longmen Memoirs

Author of Longmen Memoirs: A Corner of the Roof

Introduction:

【One corner of the roof】

Tallulah and I have known each other since childhood. In 1077 of the Crystalline Era, after the conflict between Longmen and Ursus, I left the resettlement camp and walked into the orphanage. I was seven years old that year, and I met her in the orphanage. First friend.

I always thought that she and I could successfully survive in the orphanage until we grew up, that we would get married, live together in a newly built city, and have a home of our own, but things often backfired later.

Chen came here in the winter of the second year. There was a light snowfall the night before yesterday. The man holding her hand stood in front of the big iron gate of the orphanage. I watched her walk into the orphanage and see the yellow withered grass. A row of small footprints were left in the courtyard.

The relationship between her and me had never been very good, but we eventually became friends. We had to become friends. She reluctantly held my hand, and we walked together through the streets and alleys of Longmen and the ramp pier.

Too many things happened since then.Our destinies are entangled in a strange combination of circumstances, and are drifting apart in the twists and turns of the world.

Amiya, I want to tell you that there should be no such thing as "fate" in this world.

Extra [-]: Mist

It finds us before we find it.

--------

Mercenary has never been a noble profession. Killing, kidnapping, extortion, threatening, robbing, stealing...these words that are regarded as evil by the world are closely related to our lives, and they all appear in our lives all the time. every corner.

In fact, the only difference from the military is that our actions are not given mission and honor, nor do we feel righteous or satisfied for our evil deeds.

No one will regard us as heroes because of our return, and of course we will not be greeted with flowers or applause.

Our job is just to look for money soaked in blood between corpses. Our value is just to become useful tools and victims in mission after mission, and then pray that we can survive the next mission smoothly while working for this mission. He cheered wildly after surviving the catastrophe.

Crystalline Era 1089, Summer July 7th

Black Steel's internal mission log: No. 20 is dispatched for seven operations. The third team of BPRS will accompany the Colombian private marine research team to conduct investigations on an island in the ocean after being ravaged by natural disasters.

On Terra, the ocean is far more mysterious than the land. Due to the occurrence of natural disasters, humankind's awareness and exploration scope of the ocean have been infinitely reduced.

Countless people with lofty ideals in the scientific community are trying to understand the ocean, which has countless resources and possibilities. They believe that there is some unproven advanced civilization in the depths of the ocean. Their living environment and lifestyle are completely different from humans on land. They have certain This mysterious force understands natural disasters better than terrestrial creatures and is good at controlling the gifts of source stones. There is even a reason and history of the birth of natural disasters in their civilization records.

Perhaps, Originium Disease is not an incurable disease, and the cure for Originium Disease will come from the ocean.

Infinite reverie and the evidence found on beaches everywhere push people of insight towards the depths of the sea. Everyone attempts to become a pioneer and stand proudly in the highest academic lecture hall of William University and enjoy their reputation in the academic world. experiences and results.

But the unknown not only represents opportunities, but also lurks countless dangers.

Death may not be enough to cool down the heart that is burning with thirst for knowledge and success. In the face of infinite possibilities, human courage will be magnified to a level they have never imagined, and the same is true for greed.

Before taking action, no one imagined what the outcome would be.

Before taking action, some people regard it as a new beginning in their scientific research journey.

Before taking action, someone is ready to devote himself to science.

People with different ideas gathered on the same research ship named Explorer, sailing towards the fog deep in the sea with the same but different ideas.

The leader of the scientific expedition team is named William Adams, an old man over fifty years old, one of the few leaders in the field of marine scientific research in Colombia, the lifelong honorary vice dean of the Department of Oceanography at Yale University, and the president of the Columbia Marine Source Stone Research Society. He is also a senior academician of the National Academy of Marine Sciences of Colombia and the director of a project research office hired by a large life sciences company... He has too many auras about him, but these auras cannot conceal the persistence hidden deep in his heart under his elegant and old appearance. with madness.

Yes, madness, if it is just inner madness, it is impossible to push such a person who has already achieved fame to go to the ocean in person. He is the person who has long been ready to devote himself to science.

Crystalline Era 1098, July 7th.

A week after leaving port, based on Adams' years of research and nautical charts obtained from unknown sources, the Explorer approached the destination on the chart, but at the same time, it was also lost in a thick fog.

The scientific research vessel, which has a total length of 99.8 meters, a width of 17.8 meters, a depth of 8.9 meters, and a displacement of 4650 tons, has global navigation capabilities and all-weather observation capabilities, lost its direction in the fog.

Captain Fisklo Barbayev Chilya is a pure Ussian Philin. With 30 years of rich sailing experience and a background in the Ussian military, he is known as a walking legend in the industry. , of course, if he hadn't been an alcoholic, perhaps no one would have doubted his abilities.

And even such a legendary captain was helpless against the sudden appearance of this rare and strange fog during his sailing career.

Crystalline Era 1098, July 7th.

The Explorer lost contact with the outside world, and the situation did not change at first. Even though it lost contact with the outside world and could not distinguish the navigation, Adams firmly believed that they were close to their destination, and this piece of land suddenly appeared The fog is the basis for approaching the destination.

He believed that there was nothing wrong with their course, but that the island's geomagnetic field and the surrounding environment produced such a phenomenon that the compass and some smart instruments malfunctioned.

Before this voyage, the Explorer was able to undergo a large number of modifications at the dock. Not only was the external armor reinforced with non-hard conductive metals being researched by the military and laboratories, but it was also privately equipped with some heavy firepower and spell turrets. It is really indistinguishable. It is clear whether the purpose of this ship is inspection or combat.

Crystalline Era 1089, July 7th.

On the third day of being trapped in the fog, people began to hear intermittent singing from the depths of the fog. After being diagnosed by the ship's doctor, they were thought to be suffering from some kind of high-pressure mental disorder.

Crystalline Era 1089, July 7th.

More and more people are experiencing auditory hallucinations on the ship. Even Adams himself has intermittent auditory hallucinations. It is a very strange singing voice that is different from the frequency that the vocal cord structure of a certain creature in reality can emit. , it is more like a language than a song. Adams tried to translate it, but could not find the words and language that could be used as a medium.

Crystalline Era 1089, July 7th.

During the voyage, the bottom of the ship collided with the rocks on the seabed, but the radar showed that everything was normal. According to Adams's navigation chart, there was a large circle of reefs around the island. After the first mate told Adams about it, Adams Think they are close to the island.

It is worth mentioning that the faint singing voice has disappeared.

Crystalline Era 1089, July 7th.

The waters within the fog were as calm as backwaters. The survival supplies and fresh water carried by the Explorer were enough to sustain the 83 people on board for a 60-day voyage, but the captain still ordered to save daily personnel supplies.

Three in the afternoon.

The dense fog gradually became thinner, and a passenger ship from the last century appeared within the visual range. After a short meeting, under the escort of seven members of the Black Steel BPRS team, some researchers from the investigation team boarded the passenger ship.

Fifteen minutes later, the short-range communication between the research ship and the team was interrupted. They seemed to have encountered some unknown creature. The captain refused Adams' request and ordered the Explorer to stay away from the passenger ship.

Finally, someone started to go crazy, and the cabin where supplies were stored was broken into by a crew member. Although the BPRS operators found and killed the crew member in time, they still lost a small amount of food and fresh water.

June 1089, 8, Crystalline Era

There was chaos on the ship. Some people said they saw white shadows walking in the aisles of the cabin. After investigation, it was found that there was indeed liquid left by some kind of aquatic creature on the aisle deck.

Whether it was the BPRS security personnel or the people from the scientific research group, there was panic in their hearts, and some people began to want to retreat, but the fog did not give anyone a chance.

June 1089, 8, Crystalline Era

Someone died in the cabin, and when they were found, only some body tissue was left on the ground in the room. Panic continued to spread and became deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Some people began to say that they heard shouting and chewing sounds from the bottom of the boat.

The crew member was ordered by Adams to be placed in a solitary cell.

Crystalline Era 1089 13th

There was a commotion on the ship. Black Steel's operators took the captain and Adams hostage and demanded that he return immediately.

Crystalline Era 1089 15th

The Explorer continued to move forward, and the outline of some kind of creature appeared in the fog. There was light, like the setting sun... and the night fell again.

Crystalline Era 1089 18th

The sun rose from the fog, and the outline of land finally appeared in front of us. We climbed the island. After a month-long voyage, there were only 32 people left on the boat.

……

Crystalline Era 1089 21th

It comes, I see it, it sees me, it comes.

Close your eyes.

Don't let it get to you.

Crystalline Era 1089 20th

Go back, go back, go back, go back, go back, go back, go back, go back, go back...

Second departure

June 1089, 7, Crystalline Era

midsummer

Columbia Constellation Street, second floor of Santiago Cafe.

The sunshine was just right at three o'clock in the afternoon, and the breeze blew through the sycamores and ginkgo trees in Central Park. The shadows of the trees rustled softly in the dappled sunlight. A family of three took their children for a picnic on the lawn. The young mother laid out the tablecloth and looked at it tenderly. Walking with her daughter riding on her husband's shoulders, the couple on the park bench cuddled up and took photos as a souvenir. The kite had just flown into the sky, and on the other end of the line were several children gathered together.
