Deep Sea Embers

Chapter 131 Everyone Knows Your Bad Name
"no offense."

The figure spoke, and almost at the same time that the figure spoke, Xue Li suddenly heard a "boom" sound from somewhere—it was an illusory roar, which did not exist in this dream, nor in this paragraph. The roar in the memory, it exploded directly in his mind, and amidst the roar, the burning flames in the distance and the frenzied shouting of the crowd instantly dissipated.

The whole world suddenly became extremely silent.

In the next second, Shirley found that her body had changed—she had returned to her 17-year-old appearance, and her body was no longer the familiar nightgown she remembered, but the black dress she usually wore. The arm swallowed by the deep hound did not know when it would return to its original state - a dark chain stretched out from her arm. At the end of the chain, Agou seemed to be sleeping, lying quietly in the corner of the room, the bloody gleam in his eyes suddenly Bright and dark.

Shirley sat up all of a sudden, looking at the figure sitting on the bed in astonishment and nervously.

She didn't know who this figure was, but she knew that there was a powerful existence that directly penetrated the curse of the deep and invaded her dreams.

Even she, the "master of the dream", couldn't detect the other party in advance, which showed that the intruder was already a powerful existence that could not be resisted at all.

"You... who are you?!"

Duncan stood up slowly. In this conscious world, he showed his original posture as "Captain Duncan". The extremely oppressive height made Shirley subconsciously take another half step back.

"You haven't seen me like this, this reaction is normal," Duncan said in a deep voice, "I noticed that you were having a nightmare, so I came over to take a look."

"I noticed...Come and take a look..." Shirley blinked in confusion, and finally came to her senses, "Wait, you are..."

"Let's get to know each other again, I'm Duncan," the gloomy and dignified man smiled, "Duncan Abu Normar."

He said his name, because he wasn't worried that Shirley would have the courage to tell the story—even if she really lost her head, that dark hound, who knew the times, would make her say it forever Pressed to death in his own stomach.

"Duncan...Mr. Duncan? Are you Mr. Duncan?!" Shirley's eyes widened in astonishment, a feeling of palpitations quietly filled her heart, but then she was a little confused, "But your name is not Duncan Strain What is Abu Normar?"

Duncan: "...?"

The girl's reaction made him feel a little helpless, and he was stunned for two seconds before he said with a strange expression: "You...haven't heard of this name?"

Shirley thought for a while, then honestly shook her head: "No."

Then she came to her senses again, with a look of fear on her face: "I...should I have heard of this name?"

Duncan suddenly realized that this girl had never heard of the name "Boundless Sea Mobile Disaster". limited, but this really discouraged him, and he couldn't help asking: "...Are you illiterate?"

Unexpectedly, Shirley really lowered her head and remained silent.

"Forget it, it's not important," Duncan immediately ended the current topic when he saw the other party's reaction, and then his eyes slowly swept across the small room. At this time, the noise and flames on the street outside had subsided. , as if a farce ended hastily, leaving only a dark red chaotic twilight diffused outside the window, Duncan's eyes fell on Shirley, with a calm expression, "This is what you experienced back then, isn't it?"

Shirley still lowered her head: "...um."

"...I didn't intend to spy on you, but I discovered your secret when I entered here," Duncan said sincerely, "I'm sorry."

Xue Li was taken aback, she had no idea that this terrifying existence like an evil god was apologizing to herself, the confusion in her mind quickly turned into cold sweats one after another, she hurriedly took two steps back: "No... no , it’s okay, how can you apologize to me..."

"Anyway, it's not polite to spy on a lady's dreams—even a 'little' lady like you," Duncan said with a slight smile, and then his eyes fell on the ghost hound, "When will it wake up? "

"I don't know..." Shirley looked a little at a loss, she looked at Agou who was sleeping, "This nightmare has never changed like this, I don't..."

As soon as she was halfway through her words, she heard a slight collision of bone fragments coming from Agou's body. Immediately afterwards, Agou, who was still in a deep sleep state a second ago, shook his head slightly. The red light gradually brightened, and in the next second, the terrifying giant dog suddenly stood up.

Perhaps because of the influence of the nightmare from the previous moment, Shirley subconsciously took half a step back, but soon she realized it and walked to Agou's side.

"Xue Li..." Agou finally woke up gradually. He suddenly noticed the surrounding room, and his gaze fell on Xue Li's arm in a second, with a hint of panic in his tone, "I..."

"It's okay, it's just a nightmare," Shirley laughed, and stepped forward to hug Agou's huge and ugly skeletal head, "You're having a nightmare too."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Agou just kept repeating in a low voice, and the chain connecting it and Shirley made a rattling sound, "Does it hurt? Does it hurt..."

Xue Li turned her head awkwardly: "Don't be hypocritical... there are outsiders watching..."

"Outsiders?" Agou was stunned for a moment, and then he noticed that there was another person in the room. Then, he saw Duncan's appearance clearly, saw the captain's uniform on the other person, and the gloomy and majestic face , and more importantly, it can still see the layered green flames floating behind Duncan in its field of vision.

"Fuck X!" Agou suddenly let out an exclamation, and in the next second he dragged Shirley behind him like a conditioned reflex, and he used his huge body to block between Shirley and Duncan, and the bones all over his body were bumping and shaking , but still trying to look in Duncan's direction, "It's... that ghost captain!?"

Duncan raised his eyebrows when he saw the other party's reaction: "Xue Li doesn't recognize my gesture, but you do?"

"Agou?" Shirley immediately realized, "Agou, have you seen him?"

"Have you ever seen him before? Basically all the deep demons who have seen him have been sent into the subspace at this time!" The black smoke in Agou's body fluctuated, and his tone was terrified, "The mobile natural disaster on the boundless sea... why is he Will it be in your dream?!"

"The moving natural disaster of the boundless sea?" Shirley was still blindfolded, "Why didn't I hear you tell me this..."

"Nonsense! There are too many things I haven't told you - there are so many natural disasters in the world, how can I tell them all, and under normal circumstances, who would have thought that you would meet a ghost captain on land!"

Shirley listened in a daze, she seemed to want to ask something, but Duncan suddenly broke the silence - he quietly watched the dark hound facing the enemy: "I thought only people in the real world were so afraid I never thought that I would have such a reputation among the deep demons."

Ah Gou took half a step back, and while maintaining a concentrated defensive posture, he said: "You must have underestimated yourself—your reputation is known to everyone from the deep sea to the real world, even the heartless You Demons know how to follow their instincts to avoid your Lost Homeland... To be honest, the deep demons have no heart, otherwise, even the horrors on the ashes will have you tattooed on their backs to embolden them..."

Duncan thought for a while, and suspected that the other party was actually complimenting himself——using what he thought was a compliment.

At the same time, Shirley also heard Agou's murmur - in the spiritual connection established through the chain, only she could hear this murmur: "Xueli, I will find a way to entangle this shadow in a while, You try to wake up, the other party should be just a mental projection, I can entangle him for a while, as long as you can escape from this dream, the other party will not be able to catch up..."

Shirley didn't react right away—or she and Agou were not on the same frequency at all: "Ah... then what?"

Agou’s tone was sharp: “Then you hurry to the next room and ask that big man for help—just say that you are being entangled by the Lost Homelander, be more sincere, and even ask to be the other party’s family member for asylum. At this time I can't care about the danger anymore, compared to being torn apart by the Lost Homeland and then dragged into the subspace, and becoming a follower of the evil god of the subspace, at least the latter can barely be considered 'alive'..."

Shirley didn't respond.

"Xue Li?" Agou became more and more anxious, "Xue Li, don't be in a daze! Hurry up and find a way to wake up while this dream is disturbed! Let the boss take action against the boss is our only..."

Halfway through Agou's speech, Shirley finally responded to it in the spiritual connection:
"Agou... the two big guys you mentioned seem to be one person..."

Agou: "...?"

A conversation in a mental connection takes only a split second.

The deep hound raised its head a little dullly.

In its field of vision, the ghost captain who was in charge of the fire of the spirit body just looked at this side quietly, showing a cold and dark smile like a subspace.
