[comprehensive] red tide

Pain forced me to wake up.

In front of his eyes was the vast and high sky, which was the same as what he saw when he fell on his back when he lost consciousness for the last second. His body tensed up almost subconsciously, and the condensed air collapsed in an instant.

Hey~ I can't even move a finger, so I'm probably lying down and waiting to die now?

I blinked slowly, and lay stiffly on the spot, waiting for the indiscriminate attack in the next second of the battle, or being accidentally stepped on and pierced to death.

More than half of the bones in his body were shattered, and his internal organs were also fatally impacted, and before he fell down, the ant king was dragged by the tail pincer hole/piercing in his abdomen...

The current state of near-death cannot last long.

Several of the old guys who participated in the war died in the siege of the Ant King. Of course, the opponent failed to please him. He ran into the leading scene of Jie Nuo beating the enemy. What was waiting behind him was Jin Fuli It is known as the fist of the strengthening system with the top three mental power.

When I was thrown out, I clearly saw half of the Ant King's head disintegrate and disperse.

Swallow the blood rushing up from your throat, try your best to stay awake and not let yourself close your eyes, before you die, let me know who will win and who will lose in this death struggle...

…………

After a while, the surrounding area was still quiet. I felt something was wrong and struggled to raise my head. After looking back and forth for a while, I lay down heavily again. The pain caused by the back of my head hitting the solid ground dispelled the numbness in my body.

After the shock, I sat up slowly, lowered my head, tore off the shirt that was about to shred into strips, and checked my body—the hideous hole between the chest and abdomen had been closed, the new flesh and blood were bruised, and there were several other places where bones were visible. There was no trace of the wound.

Except for a few bone fractures and minor damage to internal organs, almost all fatal injuries have been repaired.

If I was not wearing the same clothes, I almost thought I was lost in a stranger/body/body/again.

Since I'm not lost, then... where am I now?

After looking at the environment for a while, I pursed my lips and tried to summon the usual props.

The black tome is quietly revealed within reach/hands, no need to probe specifically, I also know that it is in the best condition and magnetic, peering, repelling, the three cards have signs of being used at the same time.

Obviously before the decisive battle, all the cards that were forcibly imprisoned had been liberated/released to return the divided mind, and at this moment the Book of Almighty appeared perfectly.

It's no wonder that I appear in an inexplicable place, probably because I did something unconsciously when I was dying, which caused the strong repulsion of time and space, and then led to disorder.

Ah~ In this way, whether I was excluded from the battlefield, or... I got up and tidied up my clothes. I looked around, picked a direction at random, and slowly embarked on a journey to find traces of people.

…………

After standing up, I could see clearly that I was lying on a huge and flat rocky ground, and there was no grass growing. The vast field of vision could not see anything except the sky, which also indicated that the altitude of this place was very high.

It took a moment to move to the edge of the rock, and the inspector looked down with his long neck.

At the foot is a nearly vertical cliff, so smooth and flat that you can't even find a foothold. Below a height of tens of meters, there is a sea of ​​gray mist, and the lead gray clouds slowly unwind, completely blocking the prying eyes.

The turbulent mountain wind made the corners of my clothes bulge, and I suddenly heard the sea tide, which was brought by the wind, and I don't know where it came from.

My eyes widened suddenly, and my blood flowed rapidly. I jumped down against the wind that brought the sound of the tide. During the fall, I aimed at the five fingers that had condensed on the rock wall gas, inserted/entered, pulled out/extracted after a short buffer, and fell again.

The dense gray fog seemed endless, and the water vapor contained in the atmosphere quickly soaked the clothes and hair. The feeling of being wet and sticky to the body was very uncomfortable. Into the eyes, the shock caused by the sting of the eyeballs made the movements of the hands slightly stagnant.

Expected to fail.

The unbalanced body fell down at a faster speed. I was startled, kicked out of the air, and fell into the air... The body sank heavily, kicked up and kicked one after another, and finally stepped on the rock wall. With the help of the fulcrum, I finally stopped myself Straight down and smashed to pieces.

At this time, the dense fog gradually faded, and the light gradually brightened.

Not long after, the corners of his eyes finally caught a little bit of green, and the forest came from the end of the gray fog.

…………

Passing through the canopy of fern plants that have been magnified countless times, the branches break and startle the colorful birds that inhabit it. I don't mind the pain from my shoulders and back. After landing, I turned over and started running like crazy.

Skimming over the dense and lush trees, the moss-covered root system on the bare/exposed ground, the swamp where dead branches and rotten leaves accumulate...the light changes in depth and light, and the plants that block the sky become sparse.

Passing through the last piece of crazy wild thorns, the salty and sticky wind carried the blue that seemed to condense the whole world, and forcibly crashed into my sight.

Beyond the jagged black cliffs, a frenzy between the sky and the sea is rushing in, like wounds that have scabbed and opened repeatedly.

…………Dividing line…………

After the great astonishment, panic arose spontaneously, and I couldn't move my feet as if they had taken root. I didn't have the courage to further confirm where I was.

I'm old, he might be dead too, already, farewell...

I didn't know how long I stood there blankly, until the information in the wind changed, a huge cloud curtain spread from the other side of the sea at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the deep thunder rolled thick water vapor across the head.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the rain poured down.

"Little girl, what are you doing here?"

Whose voice pierced through the noisy rain curtain and reached the ears, old but peaceful; when I turned my head, there was an old woman standing more than ten meters away?The body is slightly bent, the face is covered with wrinkles, but the eyes are very kind.

Just... little girl?Quietly watching this mother-in-law who didn't know where to come slowly approaching, and then divided the umbrella in my hand in half to cover the overwhelming raindrops, I squinted my eyes.

I know that I look terrible now, covered in blood, tangled hair, tattered clothes, covered in dust, I look like a murderer; the person next to me, who is trying to hold up the umbrella at this moment, is clearly an ordinary person...

And she actually looked calm, most people should turn around and run away, right?

"Strange old woman."

…………

It is also revealed that the first half of the great channel is one of the countless islands distributed along the seven routes; because it is close to the windless belt and there are islands with stronger magnetic fields nearby, few foreign ships arrive here.

Twenty-one years have passed since the era of great pirates started by Gol D Roger, and the residents of the island are still living a peaceful life.

Of course, this is also related to the barrenness of the products here. The land that cannot be cultivated on a large scale is only self-sufficient, without any kind of minerals.

Except for the mail bird that comes every half a month, and the occasional passing vending boat to bring outside information, Yishenlu Island, with a total of less than 300 residents, is almost isolated from the world.

It took a few months to fully recover from the injury, and after finding that there was no barrier in writing and language, by the way, I read all the newspapers and books collected by Mary, the mother-in-law who picked me up; flipping through the yellowed paper, I got some news intermittently, And then confirmed, vague impression.

In the world where I did nothing, what was performed in the legend that never ends until death, and what happened in this world but I don't know about it.

Gol D Roger's execution, the changes in the world pattern, major events, entertainment gossip, all the information about this world, I absorb with hunger and thirst.

The unexpected long time made me feel at a loss for a while.

…………

Mary runs a small grocery store near the port of the island. When she has nothing to do, I will squat there and help her look after the store when she goes to the cliff.

At first, I was always surprised that the old woman insisted on going to the dangerous cliffs every few days when she was getting old. Later, one night, she dragged her to drink all night, and went from being drunk to crazy to those who went crazy. In the words of crying and laughing, I only know the inside story.

The wild thorns growing wildly on the cliff, well~ not wild thorns, but a unique plant in this world——moonlight kapok, which has very special properties and only takes root in the rocks near the coast.

Every year, it blooms on the most prosperous night of the moon, and withers immediately after the flowering period. The seeds wander around with the wind and tide until they stay and revive again. If the moonlight of that night is not met, it will continue to grow for the next year.

The patch of plants that Mary went to see, rain or shine, was last seen 50 years ago.

That time, in the same place, Mary also picked up a man, a man from the North Sea who followed the footsteps of his ancestors into the great waterway, and drifted to Yishenlu after encountering a storm.

Like me, I was covered in wounds, and I also recuperated at Mary's house.

In the end, just like the piece of kapok, on the night when the moon is at its peak, while the flowers wither, the man sails the boat and disappears between the wind and the waves.

"The moonlight that night was indeed extremely bright, and he also said that he wanted to watch the flowers bloom again with me." Mary's eyes were filled with deep sadness, "But the flowers are about to bloom, why hasn't he come back yet?" Woolen cloth?"

…………

After waking up with a hangover, Mary seemed to have forgotten the night's gaffe, and I couldn't comment on such an unfinished story until I saw the man's last name in the impromptu book used for entertainment.

For some reason, this time, the world itself did not reject my appearance, and as my body recovered, it seemed that the barriers were broken one by one, and the faint incompatibility before was gone, and the circulation of Qi became smoother. Dare to release/release the spell card from time to time.

It's just that it's amazing to get such a good result in the first attempt. The effect produced by the spell card is actually related to this world. Even the text shows the system here. Does it mean that my existence recognized?

The card [Impromptu Book] has different wonderful stories every time it is opened. For example, this time I saw an adventure biography with the same theme as the Beihai children's stories collected by Mary, but with completely different contents.

400 years ago, Vinbrand Rolando's expedition ship North Haim, what he saw and heard on the great voyage; the date of publication is the year Rolando was executed, and the author is his navigator, Belo Monte . Bo Lun.

The small garden, the country of sand, the land of gold... The author uses realistic language to describe the dangers of sailing at sea and the surprise after landing on the island; compared with the book Mary gave me, the former is obviously more likely to stir people's hearts, which is probably why it The reason for extinction?

I stared at the author's name for a long time, then picked up the attached bookmark to mark the unfinished part, put away the impromptu book, and then released the card [postcard to the dead], and filled in the name that Mary never forgot. Belo Monte Norn, finally threw it into the mailbox outside the store.

A few days later, I received a reply. On the white postcard, there was only one sentence, 'Lilith from Tahiti'. After reading it over and over for a long time, I still couldn't get the point. Therefore.

With a tsk, I went back to my room to pack my bags, and looked for a definite place. The old woman can't wait for the next 50 years, and there are still two months before the flowering period, which is enough for me to come back.

Even if Belomonte Nuoen is dead, dig it out and return it to her.
