Chapter 12 Abnormal Similarity

When Anson woke up from the fragment, it was already daylight.

Facts have proved that the congenital symptoms like seasickness also have a little psychological factor, and they will not "get used to vomiting when they vomit" as some people who have come here say, and the more restrained they are, the stronger the reaction will be. Some critical moments cause "fainting" and a slight "amnesia" effect.

For example, now he has no memory at all after killing the six living corpses.

Alan Dawn was sitting on the desk opposite him, and Lisa, who was lying beside him, was sleeping soundly. From time to time, the soldiers on guard could be heard whispering chatter outside the closed cabin door.

"How long have I slept?"

"Ah... Thirty hours!"

The little secretary was startled, and quickly put his index finger to his lips and made a "shh" at him.

Anson immediately understood, picked up a blanket from his hand and handed it over; the little secretary on tiptoe took the blanket and gently covered Lisa.

"Thanks to the blessing of the Ring of Order, you finally woke up."

After confirming that the girl was fully asleep, the little clerk sighed with relief, looking completely relieved: "During the period of time you were in a coma, the entire storm division and the fleet were in chaos!"

messed up? !

An Sen was shocked: "You mean that monster..."

"Monster, what monster?" Allen blinked suspiciously:

"Are you... implying or referring to 'monster'?"

Looking at his blank expression, An Sen's heart moved.

"What happened while I was in a coma?"

"Ah, the specific situation is this - because the Crown's navigator, Major Edward, was drinking heavily at work, he did not detect a developing storm in time, causing the fleet to rush into the center of the storm in a completely unprepared state."

"In the course of fighting the storm, many good crew members and sailors were unfortunately shipwrecked, including Major Edward himself - who is said to have slipped off the lookout first and accidentally ignited an ammunition box on the deck... oh , may the ring of order bless him."

The little secretary shook his head regretfully, and then changed the conversation: "But fortunately, there were not too many casualties, and he had already escaped from the storm, and is continuing to follow the original route to the Ice Dragon Fjord. ."

"These are roughly all the information I know, because I stayed in the cabin and didn't leave, I'm afraid I have to ask Captain William Cecil himself for more specific information-by the way, send you back to the cabin The man is also him."

"Because of your coma, a dispute broke out between Chief of Staff Carl Bain and the fleet; the opposite side seems to be planning to place you in the captain's room of the Crown, under the care of the ship's doctor; but the Chief of Staff disagreed and insisted that the Guard Company be Someone and Miss Lisa are in charge of your care."

"Carl?!"

"Yes, but the problem has been solved, because the Chief of Staff is... er... seasick, and is now lying in his room; after Lieutenant Colonel Fabien discussed with Captain William, he decided to let you go back to the cabin, but he would Have the ship doctor come over every half day."

Saying that, the little clerk also took out his pocket watch: "It's 11:20 now, they should be coming over."

"That……"

"Oh, that's about the previous storm." The little secretary explained: "You fell into a coma, and we lost a lot of luggage because of the previous storm, and the pilot died, so many middle-level storm divisions The officers wanted to return - you know, they didn't really want to go to the colonies."

Anson Bach: "..."

Well, this is quite in line with the storm division's tradition of "greed for life and fear of death"... An Sen laughed at himself in his heart. Just when he was about to ask about the situation, he suddenly realized that there was a huge loophole in the little secretary's words.

The ammo box exploded!

At that time, there were no less than 20 crew members who saw themselves killing the navigator with a grenade on the deck at that time, including and not limited to middle and senior officers and lower-level sailors. It was impossible to hide such a thing... How could he think that it was an explosion of an ammunition box? ?

Obviously, Alan Dawn will not deceive himself (at least not in matters unrelated to the Franz family). This involves his own professional ethics, so there is only one answer - someone is deliberately covering up the truth.

With the circumstances at the time, if a similar situation happened on other ships except the Crown, then this is definitely not something that one or two people can do. At least all the crew and sailors of the entire fleet must be the first in the incident. Time has reached a unified caliber, and all traces have been obliterated.

Not only that, according to the little secretary's explanation, the caster who suddenly appeared did not continue to chase after the fleet rushed out of the storm, but simply let them go.

Is this reasonable?

Continuing to follow this line of thinking, even this storm appeared extremely suddenly. It happened that they were far away from Beigang and were still a long way from the Ice Dragon Fjord; it happened that they were just recovering, from William Sethi Er got a warning from his mouth; it happened that Fabian heard about the "Sea of ​​the Abyss" from the crew's mouth.

Too many "coincidences"... Anson suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck.

If it wasn't for the fact that he still had some use value for the Rune family, he would even wonder if Talia, along with the two families of Cecil and Franz, killed himself, a loyal minister who was "suspected of a serious traitor".

Considering that his life should not be worth a single battle, the price of four cruisers plus more than a dozen merchant ships, An Sen, who was so frightened by himself, dispelled this too terrifying idea.

Just then, there was a knock on the door outside.

"Please come in."

The little secretary jumped off his chair and stepped forward to open the door.

William Cecil in a formal suit appeared outside the door, he coughed lightly, and said nervously:

"Can I talk to you alone?"

Anson looked at his little secretary like a conditioned reflex, nodded slightly and said:

"Can."

The little clerk who understood it gave way to the entrance, turned to leave at the same time William entered the room, and closed the door from the outside.

The young captain who walked to the bed was standing by the window. He looked at Lisa who was sleeping beside him, pursed the corners of his mouth tightly, and looked around with a slightly uneasy look.

"Excuse me...what's the matter?" Anson looked at him indifferently.

William suddenly trembled, raised his head as if he had shown great courage, and looked at Anson:

"You should still have an impression of what happened that day... right?"

"Yes, I remember."

"Then did you check with the clerk just now about the situation that night, and found that it was different from your own memory?"

"..."

An Sen, who was silent for a moment, slowly narrowed his eyes: "What do you want to say?"

"I just want to tell you that there was no deviation in your memory that night; neither did your clerk." William's expression was extremely solemn:

"That night, except for the Crown, the crew on the decks of other ships in the fleet and the soldiers of your Storm Division... were not spared."

"Besides you and me, and the lucky ones you rescued... No one will remember them, because they won't have any memory of that night at all; for them, it was just a game that was no different from usual, more Just a violent storm."

Anson looked at his expression and vaguely understood what he meant: "You mean..."

"Sea of ​​the Abyss." William with dark circles gave the answer:

"I used to wonder why there were so many rumours about Raging Seas, but no one had ever actually seen it; now I understand, because those who have actually seen it... are almost impossible to escape."

"If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have escaped the storm so quickly, let alone survived so easily; and for those 'survivors', they wouldn't remember what happened in the storm, they would only It was just a terrible shipwreck."

"While your chief of staff seems to be quite suspicious of us, and even has some kind of Army versus Navy prejudice, I understand his approach - even though we were all in the same mind at the time, wishing you a speedy recovery."

There was immense gratitude in William's earnest words.

But Anson was not relieved by his explanation, on the contrary he was even more frightened.

If William didn't lie or was deliberately misled, judging from the fact that only those who have experienced it will leave memories, it is a very standard trace of black magic!

This means that it is a mystery whether he even actually experienced a battle that night, or whether he actually appeared on the deck; the more likely truth is that he and William Cecil experienced a large-scale battle together. hallucinations.

If the answer is true, then the fact that the navigator did not detect the storm in time can be explained - because there was no storm at all, it was all an illusion created by the black mage.

And that black magic caster, he is definitely still alive!

A spellcaster capable of creating illusions on thousands of... no, the entire sea area, this strength is more than terrifying, it is simply terrifying.

Compared with him, Professor Mace Hornard, who almost killed himself, is like a baby in the world of the old gods.

If this is the real core combat power of the Old God World... An Sen suddenly felt that working for the Rune family was a great career with a bright future, what core technology, what blood power, what airship... a toy to coax children That's it!

Why is Saint Isaac, who is a believer of the Ring of Order and the leader of the Society of Truth, a spellcaster and has mastered three major magics at the same time - this is the iron truth, the so-called steam core is just a game that he can easily handle Production, "The Great Magic Book" is the ultimate result of his real painstaking efforts.

The humble believers of the Ring of Order, you can slowly enjoy the last proud days, and wait for the grand plan belonging to the old gods to come, the era will soon change back!

"What's up?"

William noticed that Anson's state was obviously abnormal.

"nothing!"

The shocked An Sen instantly regained his composure, pretending that everything was normal: "Is there anything else?"

"No, I just want to come over and thank you." The young captain shook his head with a very sincere expression:

"Although many things cannot be stated, the Royal Navy... and the Cecil family will always owe you a favor; please feel free to speak up if you need any help from us, and we will do our best."

Although Clovis was looser on the issue of the Old Gods, this does not mean that there is no taboo to talk about such things in public; on the contrary, Luther Franz, who is probably the most "indulgent" to the Old Gods in history "Under the rule of the Archbishop, on the surface, the level of strictness in managing all topics involving this aspect is also unprecedentedly high.

Especially for the Wang Family Navy, who often traveled to the colonies and might have had relationships with many heretical sects and even the believers of the Old God Sect, they were even more secretive in this regard.

Of course Anson understood this, so he deliberately said sternly: "I don't do this for your so-called favor."

"I understand." William Cecil smiled slightly:

"From now on, you are a friend of the Cecil family - for the activities of the Storm Division in the colony, we will go all out to provide assistance, and will apply to the Royal Navy for the Beluga Port where you are stationed to provide more security."

"I can't promise you too much right now, but...you know, the city security forces in Beigang have always been under-equipped; if the Empire suddenly decides to lay siege to Beigang from land~www.wuxiaspot.com~ the consequences would be unimaginable."

"It's about the security of the kingdom's territory. Your worries are definitely not unreasonable!" An Sen nodded solemnly:

"August Arms Factory is very willing to contribute to the security of Beigang!"

"Ah, that's a big thank you!"

The two sides came and went, and they concluded an arms trade agreement in a happy mood. William was also secretly relieved to repay his favor.

The two of them were very tacit and did not mention what happened that night.

For William Cecil, if he did, whether he wrote anonymous letters to the Inquisition or the Church, it would surely end up in the hands of Archbishop Luther Franz; It was learned from the mouth that the other party was a close associate of the Franz family.

Regardless of whether the Franz family really intends to infiltrate the Royal Navy, "declaring war" on an archbishop is a very unwise choice.

What's more, the other party also saved his life.

Seeing that Anson accepted his "repayment", William, who finally felt relieved, got up and left; just as he opened the door, a crew member suddenly appeared outside the door, looking very strange.

A minute later, the young captain suddenly turned around and looked at Anson with a strange expression.

"What's wrong?" Anson asked curiously.

"Nothing!" William shook his head hesitantly: "The sailors on the boat reported that they rescued a young lady who fell into the water, and then..."

"Then?"

"She... looks like your sister, Miss Lisa Bach... unusually similar!"

"Um?!!!"
