Deep Sea Embers

It took a few seconds for Tirian to notice that Duncan had just mentioned his relationship with the Frost Queen, and his shock was palpable.

Duncan was not surprised by this reaction. He just shook his head slightly: "My meeting with her was very special. It was not in the normal timeline. You can understand that I have intervened in the gaps of history, from the perspective of a bystander." I met Leigh Nora once - but in normal history, I have no contact with the Frost Queen.

Tirian frowned, as if he wanted to understand the meaning of these profound words. Then his eyes flickered slightly, restrained all his emotions, and looked up at Duncan: Why are you interested in the Frost Queen? Is it because of that ‘one-sided relationship’? Or is it because of... this doll who calls herself ‘Alice? Did she say anything to you?

Alice didn't know anything about the Frost Queen, and her memory was as pure as a blank sheet of paper. Duncan said lightly, I am interested in the Frost Queen because everyone said that the Frost Rebellion was due to Leigh Nora's collusion. The Xianghao conspiracy was exposed - don't you think it's normal for me to become interested after learning about this rumor?

... In collusion with the Lost Home, Tirian's voice was low and his eyelids were drooped, making it difficult to tell what emotion he was feeling at the moment. Yes, this is how they arranged the crime for Her Majesty Le Nora.

Judging from your reaction, this is indeed a crime of framing. Duncan's voice came from the mirror. Therefore, the Frost Rebellion back then was just a complete conspiracy, and the accusation of Le Nora being planted was completely groundless. of?

As he said this, he observed Tirian's reaction.

But Tirian did not answer him immediately. Instead, he frowned slightly and asked: Does this truth mean anything to you?

Yes, Duncan looked serious. After all, from a certain perspective, I am half a party involved.

Tirian was obviously stunned for a moment, as if he could not refute his father's answer. Then he smiled helplessly and sighed, shaking his head: There is indeed a conspiracy in this rebellion, but if it must be said, the name used by the rebels is completely different. imaginary……

Explore the deep sea? Lu Qiao frowned, was he referring to the spiritual world, the deep and the subspace? But it’s definitely not just research in these fields. There should also be some taboos. Although it is indeed very safe, occult research in that area has always been carried out legally in various city-states. The Academy of Truth even has special topics. Group……

But under the fierce appearance, he only often stirred up waves in his heart.

Tirian said, shaking his head slightly.

oh? All data has been destroyed? This time he felt a little surprised. He thought that this matter might be relatively confidential, but he didn't expect that it was covered up to such an extreme extent that all the insiders were dead?

At that time, the rebels had originally prepared a series of follow-up publicity work for the "Liberal Abyss Plan", intending to make it public on the premise of exposing these taboo elements, so as to completely eliminate the influence of the Frost Queen in the northern seas. However, after the collapse of the sea cliff, those propaganda plans were immediately abolished - as you just said, we firmly believe that the name of the "Qianyuan Project" has not been tainted by the curse. , so he simply destroyed all information related to this plan, including its name.

Tirian's head shot up in surprise.

oh?

I am not referring to the deep sea in the mystical concept, Tirian shook his head slightly, I am talking about the deep sea in the true sense, the deep sea in the natural realm - one is placed in front of all of us, but everyone They all pretend not to see it and don't touch it, but they dare to touch the deep sea.

Tirian's face was serious and he was silent for a long time before finally speaking in a low and slow voice: To put it simply, it is an exploration plan - but unlike those explorers who explore new routes at the borders of civilization, the Abyss Plan explores the deep sea.

But Her Majesty Leigh Nora told me that this issue is very important. It is as important as the secrets of the spirit world, the remoteness, and the subspace. It is right under our feet, right under the city-state and the sea, right under our feet. In the real world, there is such a vast area

Unknown areas, and I am a person full of exploration spirit. I cannot accept that such a large area under my control is shrouded in the unknown. This taboo plan was tainted with so many things related to curses, subspaces, and spiritual pollution that even the rebels at that time did not dare to talk about the information they found.

The Frost Queen has never colluded with any Homeless Company, but I did... have done some research in forbidden areas. Once these research plans are made public, even if there is no rebellion, it will be difficult for me to continue to be the ruler of the city-state. .

That’s why I’m particularly curious... How did you learn about the ‘Qianyuan Project’?

Duncan's eyes were deep, and after a few seconds of silence, he suddenly spoke: It's called 'The Abyss Project,' right?

Tirian finally stopped avoiding and looked directly into Duncan's eyes. After hearing the plan half a century ago from the other party, the ups and downs in his heart could not be calmed down. For a moment, he even really believed that There is some collusion between the Frost Queen and the Homeless Ship.

But in fact, there was one and only time the name of this plan was made public - it was on the final execution ground, when the rebels uttered the words to pronounce the Frost Queen guilty, and on this day, An unprecedented horrific collapse occurred in the city-state's Wanghai Cliff. The entire sea cliff and one-seventh of the city fell into the boundless sea. Everyone who heard the words "Qianyuan Plan" was not spared. Become a dead soul in the deep sea.

Hanshuang has never considered this issue because he has a preconceived set of common sense. You take it for granted that beneath the city-state there must be geological structures raised in the sea, such as mountains in the sea, or raised craters, and further down, of course there should be It's something like the seabed, but at this time I casually recalled all the knowledge I had come into contact with since coming to this world, and found... Human beings have never had an understanding of the underwater world more than two hundred meters deep. Research!

As Tirian spoke, he suddenly asked a question: Father, have you ever thought about this question? What does it look like under your city-state, under those isolated islands in the sea that carry the entire civilization today?

But all the information related to the Qianyuan Plan has been destroyed, and even the women who exposed the plan were liquidated and executed by the rebels... Tirian said in disbelief, everyone firmly believed in the name of the plan itself They are all still tainted by the curse, and the last insiders from that year have long since passed away...

I know a lot more than you think. Duncan said calmly.

I have said that I have watched some things happen in the cracks of history. Duncan spoke frankly and asked again, so, what exactly is the Abyss Plan? Why was this plan so secretive and taboo that even he... seemed to have some residual fear when it came to mentioning it?

He really didn't think about this issue, or... he even realized that this was not an issue that needed to be considered before!

In this world, people are not used to using terms such as the spirit world, the deep sea, and subspace to refer to the depth of the world, and this structural model indeed cannot explain the way the world operates today to a certain extent, but in reality Actually, this model is just an interpretation based on mystical concepts. To be careful, it only describes the dimensional structure of the world, not the physical structure of the real world!

What Tirian is talking about at this moment is obviously not the dimensional model based on the concept of mysticism. He is referring to the physical concept of the body of water from the sea surface down.

Duncan said nothing.

Tirian is somewhat convinced that you understand the situation better than anyone else, and naturally you also know the reason why this plan was buried. However, after a moment of silence, he slowly spoke:

Obviously, you have not considered that issue either. Tirian's voice suddenly came, interrupting Duncan's thinking. And after meeting the Frost Queen, you have never considered this issue - the boundless sea covers the entire world, Our city-state is an isolated island floating on the sea. The protection of the gods has laid a solid foundation for the real world. The illumination of Vision 001 has brought us a safe and stable day. As for what is under the water...

Why should we pay attention? The spiritual world, the deep, the subspace...these 'dimensions'

The "deep sea area" above is not enough to give us a headache.

Corresponding to the classic model of reality-spiritual world-remoteness-subspace, the deep sea mentioned by Tirian is actually on the first layer of the model: the real dimension. However, it is not the deep sea that is only located on the first layer, but it seems to be human beings. A complete void in perception.
