Tides: Years of Dawn
Chapter 59 (34) Converging Trajectories
[There are three updates today~~~ The first update and the second update have been released, and the third update is around [-]:[-] pm~~~ Meh! 】
That night, Crewe sneaked out of the window after his brothers and sisters were asleep.
He didn't go through the gate because he didn't want the attendants to ask questions.
Unlike going to the sea monster's house before, if he was caught stealing from the sea snake's house this time, he believed that his brother would confess him as a suspect without hesitation.
In the past few days, Crewe always eats and does things in silence by himself, and doesn't break out into bigger conflicts with his brothers and sisters, and he no longer clashes like when he was slapped by Elena that day.
He was actually timid, but it seemed that Crewe's reaction was too unexpected for the two of them, and it took them a while to get used to it, so they have settled down quite a bit these days.
Although insinuations and accusations were unavoidable, he was not directly brought up to teach him a lesson like that day.
Although lonely, Crewe has been lonely for more than ten years, and he doesn't care if he continues to be lonely.
He wanted to visit Geraint in the past, but he was afraid that he couldn't bear Geraint's indifferent and hostile eyes.He was afraid that as long as he saw the other party, tears would keep flowing.
He also hopes that he can speak well, but obviously he is not strong enough to maintain calm in the vortex of negative emotions.
He decided to do what Juventus told him first.In this way, there are arguments to support him telling Geraint-I never betrayed you.
But things went wrong.
Turning into the prototype of an octopus, he moves much faster and is more stealthy.
After he quietly crawled out of the room, he slipped quietly to the wall.A tentacle slammed onto the edge of the wall, then quickly retracted the tentacles, and the whole person jumped over the wall.
He didn't forget to take off his robe and put it in a small cloth bag, so that if he met someone, he could change into the robe as quickly as possible. He reasoned that he couldn't sleep, so he ran out and walked around, and Said that he was not aware of the curfew notice - after all, his family members always did not talk to him, and many people on Haicheng Island had heard of this.
At this moment, he freed up two tentacles to hold the small cloth bag, and quickly squirmed and crawled under the night.
Now he can no longer take a boat, and all boats are banned after eleven o'clock.So when he came to the beach, he let go of his tentacles little by little, and finally fell into the sea with a plop.
It's getting colder in the Cracked Rocks, and it won't be long before winter begins.But the sea water is very comfortable, the heat of the day has not dissipated, there is still a little bit of warmth.
He swam forward with all his might, not thinking about whether there were sharks in the sea who had been hungry all day, or wandering around looking for sea turtles for supper like him.
The location where Crewe jumped into the sea was the narrowest strait between Cliff Island and Haicheng Island.
If all goes well, he can reach the other shore within an hour, and then move ashore along the less dangerous shallow sea to the vicinity of the sea snake's house.
He hoped that the guards tonight would also relax their vigilance because of the curfew. After all, guarding an empty house is a very boring task. Even if the "monster" acts as a monster, he will mess around in a popular place, and he will not find the gloomy old man of the Sea Snake's house. house.
It's a pity that Crewe was wrong this time.
He didn't expect that the place where Gareth woke up was the small forest not far from the sea snake's house.
Gareth also saw the house in the distance, and judged from the fact that there was no light in the house after nightfall—it was an old house without people. With him and the group of monsters around him, he could kill several After the guards, let the large troops hide in.
With the blessing of a house, the defense and security will be greatly improved.
Gareth had experience with this kind of old mansion. He and Tristan had raided similar mansions before, and had also been ordered by some homeowners to do things that they could not handle themselves.
At first glance, it is a treasure left by dignitaries, and even those eels that can release lightning with a flick of their hands and sea turtles that can crack the ground with a stomp of their feet, they will never use the whole ruins to catch them. The mansion was destroyed.
He must transport Tristan in, at least not let Tristan continue to lie in this open wilderness.
He had taken aim at one of the least guarded spots around the corner.
There was no one on the fence on the second floor of that place, and there was no one in the tower, only two guards stood there bragging about the day.50 meters to their right, there is a small door that only allows one person to pass through. It is presumed that it was originally used for the servants in the house to enter and exit.
The door was locked with a chain thinner than that of the waiting room.
Although Gareth didn't remember how he broke the handcuffs in the waiting room at all, but if the chains as thick as small arms could be broken, the slim chains on the small door would be no problem.
Gareth decides to strike in the middle of the night.
He will make a surprise attack together with the twelve beasts who survived and quickly recovered their strength. After killing the two guards, he will immediately enter the gate and climb up the city wall as quickly as possible.
Immediately afterwards, they will kill the three guards who can see on the city wall. After occupying the high ground, it will not be a problem to deal with the seven or eight guards who want to go up.
Even though until now he didn't quite understand why those beasts listened to him, but he couldn't care less.Maybe he triggered what mechanism to make them obedient, so he had to act quickly, otherwise it would be difficult to deal with the skill failure.
But what he never imagined was that just as he was staring at the moon, anxiously waiting for the moon to rise higher and higher, and then waiting for the dark clouds next to him to cover half of the moonlight lightly, and several guards were drowsy after exchanging wine bottles. At that moment, he saw a wriggling little black figure.
He had already raised his hand, and the two beasts behind him who were about to charge into the battle and kill the enemy first were also panting heavily, waiting for the attack, but he did not suppress the gesture of ordering "action" for a long time.
He thought the octopus looked familiar.
At least the bag that the octopus was holding in his arms was unbuttoned because of the soaking in sea water, and the corner of the blue robe that fell out of the bag gave him a sense of deja vu.
The black shadow swayed and packed the bag under the night, then picked it up again, and squirmed in the direction of the mansion in a hurry.
Finally, it stopped behind a few bushes not far from the mansion.
Tristan gasped, he remembered who the bastard was, and cursed in his heart, "Damn it!", and simply turned the direction of the gesture, indicating to the two beasts behind——
"If you want to live, drag it in!" He ordered in a low voice.
Then the two beasts galloped in the direction of the little octopus like arrows.
"That's all you've heard?" Hua De asked after Gawain explained what he encountered in the backyard of the turtle's house.
Gao Wen nodded, "There are many voices that I can't hear clearly, but these four sentences are the only ones I can hear clearly."
"There are four people." Hua De squeezed his chin and whispered, "There are four people..."
"What four people?" Gao Wen was puzzled, but he quickly understood what his father meant, "You mean there are four people who will say these four sentences to me in the future?"
Hua De glanced at Gao Wen and frowned slightly.
If the son heard it right, then these four sentences indicate—"There is one person who is sorry for you, one person who wants your help, one person who seeks revenge from you, and one person... who wants to be supported."
Gawain was silent.
If he had to say that he was supported, he could only think of Rael.He told his father his conjecture, but Hua De shook his head—"No, I don't think Rael is among the four."
Hua De sighed, and said, "Rael is more cautious and mature than you. Even if there is something aggressive, the Turtle family must strictly control his actions. He cannot be the factor that Leviathan gave you an early warning. .”
"Then who else?" Gawain didn't understand. He tried to bring in all the people around him, but it seemed that everyone was valid and everyone was not.
But in Ward's view, this is not the case. He can guess a general idea, for example-"Cluau///T///P///S hurt you, so I pray for your forgiveness. Jalan Tesser Ben hates you, so I want to seek revenge from you, but exactly who needs your salvation, and who would want your support—”
Gawain didn't finish listening, he laughed and said in disbelief - "Geraint hates me? I've done so many things for him, will he hate me later?"
"You made Crewe an assistant." Hua De said lightly.
Having said that, Gawain was even more unbelievable-"So Crewe will come and hurt me because of Geraint? How is this possible? You have seen what I did for them, this..."
"The jellyfish family lynched a prisoner, did you know?" Hua De interrupted Gao Wen and said suddenly.
As soon as these words came out, Gao Wen was stunned.
In textbooks, lynching has been banned by law many years ago.
Although the nine families of the Split Rock Islands all have their own strict rules and regulations, none of them can lynch any Sea Folk.Otherwise, this is a crime of harming compatriots, and the main messenger will be eaten.
The so-called food sharing refers to the most terrible punishment in the Split Rock Islands.It refers to the execution of hanging the seamen who committed heinous crimes in the underground synagogue of Bloodstone Island, and the leader of each family sat around with his heirs or deputy, and cut off a piece of flesh from the prisoner in turn.
If all the representatives of the nine families have eaten the prisoner's meat, but the prisoner has not died, he will be acquitted.
And if he didn't make it through, and died while the representatives were still gouging out the flesh one by one, then his remaining limbs would be eaten up by the whole audience—including guards, servants, and ordinary sea people.
This is the only method of death penalty in the Split Rock Islands, and this kind of death penalty is very cruel, so it must go through a strict crime judgment and parliamentary vote, and it is absolutely impossible for any family to carry it out without permission.
But obviously, all of this is recorded in the book, but what is not recorded in the book is-"Every family lynches many people every year, but we don't tell you, you don't know that's all. The jellyfish family and the turtle family are family rules The two strictest families, after you become the head of the family, you will also learn about this."
"But...but why—"
"Because he was involved in Baroseben's secrets," Hua De said solemnly, "he was charged with treason."
