Chapter 1520 Impossible
Looking out of the ship from the deck is similar to looking through the porthole. The world is completely dark, and it is impossible to tell where is the water and where is the sky.
There are several bright navigation lights on the deck, which provide the most basic lighting and outline the surrounding objects.
The flashlight in everyone’s hands serves as a supplement to the light source, so at least normal vision is not a problem.
Martina and the people from the Black Iron Knights who came up first were observing nearby. Jiu Ke and Lei Lei were beside Gan Xiaoyan. When she turned around at this time, she could see Rachel following her. And the British guys in red uniforms walked out of the door leading to the cabin at the back. Although it was dark inside the door, Rachel and the others didn't seem to have any problem with their expressions.
"I'm fine, just a little dizzy."
For others, their eyes just darkened for a moment, and then they walked through the darkness onto the deck.
Gan Xiaoyan then realized that the terrifying darkness she just felt was actually an illusion brought to her by Vision.
The ability of vision is like this. Although it is easy to use, it often makes the owner unable to distinguish reality. Especially Gan Xiaoyan's vision is still passive. Even she herself doesn't know when she sees it. Really, what she saw when she saw it was the revelation given to her by the vision.
Moving to the side to get out of the way, Gan Xiaoyan told them what she saw after Rachel and Erica's people came up.
Vision only allows people to see. This is a special ability that allows people to see the essence through phenomena. And among the records of Jiuke, Gan Xiaoyan is the only holder of vision in the country.
So Jiuke actually knows relatively little about Vision. We started late in this regard, so it would be best to seek the opinions of foreign colleagues.
Several people were surprised that Gan Xiaoyan had such a rare ability, but after hearing about her experience, everyone fell silent.
“Perhaps what you see is the essence of this ship, or it may be the essence of this world.”
Martina said:
"I heard the teacher say that vision holders can easily scare themselves to death, so you don't need to take it too seriously."
This is considered comfort, and Rachel said:
"According to our There are indeed rumors about the shadow world in the association’s records, but no one can confirm it, but if you see those things, maybe we are really in the shadow world.”
“It’s too dark here, you should. Isn’t that how you judge the shadow world?”
Rachel rolled her eyes at Erica, but did not refute.
It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s that I don’t have anything to say to refute.
No one has been to the Shadow Realm, and there is no description at all. The only thing that can be known is that the Shadow Realm is filled with shadow power.
But the detectors carried by everyone do not have the ability to detect the power of shadows, and the current technical level is not up to it.
So to judge whether this is the shadow world, we can only rely on Gan Xiaoyan's illusion.
Erica clapped her hands and said:
"We can discuss these issues later. Now, we need to think about how to return to the normal world."
There should be a large number of nine-section reconnaissance ships around the ghost ship, as well as two destroyers sent by the navy to assist. , when other people boarded the boat, the surrounding situation was similar.
But look now, the surroundings are dark and there is nothing.
It can be said that only after arriving on the deck did everyone become convinced that they had indeed traveled through time unknowingly.
According to the current information, there are two ways to go back.
One is to get permission from the captain to let them off the ship. The second is to throw down the lifeboat. There is no need for everyone to get on. As long as they throw down the lifeboat, they can return to their original world.
Something may happen in the former case. After all, I don’t know whether the captain will agree to it, but in the latter case... the source of the intelligence is unreliable, and it’s hard to tell whether it is a trap.
So they decided to take a two-pronged approach and walk along the deck towards the bow of the ship.
Try first to see if you can get the captain's consent. If not, try throwing the lifeboat down.
This is because getting off the ship with the permission of the captain is written in the rules when boarding the ship. Although the original words are, "If you have any questions or want to go to the sea area, you can communicate with the captain. Passengers who abide by the law will get Captain's help'.
But the man I met in the bar also gave similar information. There are two pieces of information that support each other, and the credibility is slightly higher.
Execute the ones with high credibility first, and then try the ones with low credibility if it fails.
Everyone recognized the shape of the ship on the deck, identified which side was the bow and which side was the stern, and then moved towards the bow.
This ship is a very old model, a paddle steamer. Walking on the deck, you can even see huge waterwheel-like structures on both sides of the ship, which push the ship. Motivation to move forward.
The name ship also comes from the fact that the original ship had two large wheels on both sides, but this design was soon replaced by propellers.
The deck was quiet, with no other sounds except the footsteps. Not only did not see any crew members or monsters, but they couldn't even feel any slight wind blowing, and the surrounding silence was terrifying.
The navigation lights that outline the shape of the ship do not look very bright, as if they are covered with a filter like a black and white photo.
Everyone feels a little tight on the back of the head and a chill on the tailbone, which is not a comfortable experience anyway.
Fortunately, although this ship was large, its deck still met the standards of a cruise ship, not an aircraft carrier. They walked along the deck all the way to the bow, and soon came to a large empty deck at the bow.
Standing here, when you turn your head you can see the brightly lit bridge diagonally above, and through the glass you can vaguely see people busy inside.
Four lifeboats are tied to the sides of the ship on both sides below the bridge and hung with a simple crane. The lifeboats can be thrown off the ship at any time.
The rules on the ship do not say that you cannot go on the deck, and this is not an area exclusively for employees, so they will not have any problems wandering around here.
Now, let’s try to see if we can get the captain’s permission to disembark.
What, you mean going to the bridge?
You have to take the stairs to get to the bridge, who knows if you will be teleported away. Moreover, if you go to the corridor of the cabin to move forward, the place is too narrow, and it is inconvenient to use if you encounter any danger.
So, after a brief discussion, Erica and her people were ready at the crane to drop the lifeboat at any time.
Martina then made a spell-casting gesture and touched her throat.
"Mr. Captain! We need help!"
Her voice was louder than shouting with a loudspeaker, and people who were close felt their ears buzzing. It is the ability of the school of change that Martina is best at.
After shouting twice more, a figure approached the glass of the bridge and pushed open a small window. It was the captain who had appeared in the image before.
"What do you want?"
His tone was still very reluctant, and his face was as pale as a dead person.
“We need to get off the ship and take us back to where we got on the ship!”
Before Martina could even finish her sentence, the captain let out a terrifying roar louder than her. ：
"Impossible!"
Holy shit, that man in the bar lied to me?
