Deep Sea Embers

Duncan looked at the old Mr. Morris standing on the first floor with some surprise, and looked in surprise at the embarrassment of the other party and the obviously strange expression on his face.

He walked down slowly and greeted the old scholar: "Good day—what's going on? You look like you just ran all the way through the wind and rain?"

"Dun...Mr. Duncan," Morris just came back to his senses, he temporarily put the mysterious blonde lady aside, and walked forward while taking off his already soaked hat, "I need your help ...I don't know how to explain this to you, and I don't know if you are willing to take action, but...I found that there are missionaries of the end of the city, and they have tampered with the history of Purand. I... "

The old man suddenly got stuck while speaking.

He seemed to suddenly realize how impulsive and impulsive his behavior of asking for help was, and realized that his behavior of asking for help from an unknown subspace existence was irrational. Will Mr. Duncan help with this?Why would he do this?Is the survival of human beings and the survival of city-states meaningful to him?What threat did the preacher pose to him in the end?
I acted so impulsively because of the friendly attitude shown by this subspace existence before, or because the other party just happened to show some things for the last time?
Morris was stunned for a moment, and then he saw Duncan nodded slightly.

"I know."

The chaotic starlight, the broken mirror, the giant of light and shadow—the skin of a mortal, said to him calmly standing on the stairs.

"You...know?" Morris was stunned, but then he reacted, and the expression on his face became very strange, "Ah, yes...Of course you don't need me to remind you, I..."

The old man threw his hat aside, raised his hand and patted his forehead, as if he felt that he had made a fool, he murmured, "I'm so confused, I thought you wouldn't be able to notice what's going on in the city-state." Abnormal, then you must also know that Fan Na..."

Duncan immediately frowned slightly: "Fanna? That city-state judge who has a good relationship with Heidi? What happened to her?"

"Vanna, she...'disappeared,'" Morris was taken aback for a moment. He didn't expect Duncan to react like this, but he subconsciously said, and then quickly added, "I'm not saying she's missing, but starting today. Disappearing in the real world suddenly, Heidi forgot about Fanna's existence, and neither did anyone else, even the newspapers of the city-state..."

Duncan walked down the stairs quickly. Halfway through Morris's speech, he realized that the situation was complicated, and his expression became serious at this moment: "Sit down and talk slowly. Alice, go prepare hot tea—do you remember how do it?"

"Yes, Mr. Duncan."

Morris saw that the blond woman with an elegant and mysterious temperament got up immediately after hearing Duncan's order, and he also noticed that every movement of this "Miss Alice" seemed slightly weird-many of her movements were in the range of Very small, with a strange sense of caution and restraint, which reminds people of those ancient nobles with excellent upbringing and family inheritance, and makes him more curious about their identity. …

But his curiosity gave way to the current state of affairs.

After sitting down at the counter, he immediately told the "antique store manager" in front of him of the abnormal situation he noticed, and at the same time told himself the difficulties and obstacles he encountered along the way.

Duncan listened with a serious expression, without interrupting Morris's statement throughout the whole process, until after the other party finished speaking, he whispered softly as if sighing: "The final missionaries... are indeed a group of troublesome guys."

"This group of lunatics who have exiled themselves outside the dimension of reality in ancient times will always appear suddenly in the cracks of time. They are committed to destroying the continuity of history, and they are a huge threat to the stability of the real world... But They seldom have the opportunity to escalate things to such an extent," Morris said in a low voice, "under normal circumstances, the protection of the gods will prevent the infiltration of the final missionaries, and the fire spreaders will continue to strengthen the history' barriers, , this time those lunatics must have borrowed some other power to break the blockade..."

"Mister, your tea." Alice came from the side and put the hot tea on the counter.

"Thank you," Morris hurriedly thanked him. He has gone through wind and rain on this journey, and now he really needs a cup of hot tea to warm his body.
But as soon as he picked it up and took a sip, he couldn't hold back, "Pfft——"

Duncan on the opposite side looked indifferent: "Let's make do with it, at least she really found out where the tea leaves are, although the dosage is questionable."

Morris turned his head and glanced at the mysterious lady named Alice in astonishment, only to see that the other party was already leaning on the stairs, in a state of mind wandering.

...What is the origin of this mysterious man?
Duncan chewed the tea calmly, confirming one thing in his heart.

As expected, the transcendents of this world have discovered the "non-linear" characteristics of the Final Yan missionaries, and they have targeted countermeasures.

But it now appears that these countermeasures have not always been effective.

He closed his eyes slightly, and in the dark vision, the distant green flame suddenly jumped up at the end of his perception.

Morris looked curiously at Duncan who suddenly began to "close his eyes and meditate": "Mr. Duncan, you..."

"Don't worry, Fanna is still alive," Duncan opened his eyes with a calm expression, "it's just... living outside the city-state of Purdue at this moment."

"Can you confirm her location and status?" Morris opened his eyes wide in astonishment. In fact, he mainly came to convey the news of "historical pollution". The mention of Fanna's situation was only incidental. After all, from his perspective, There should be no relationship between Duncan and the city-state judge, but he didn't expect the other party to bet on Fan Na with "sight".

"I'm with her, she's a very good judge," Duncan didn't explain anything, just nodded calmly, then got up suddenly from behind the counter, "Excuse me."

Morris stood up in astonishment: "What are you going to do?"

Duncan was walking towards the stairs, when he heard this, he stopped and turned his head slightly: "Go and bring Fanna back—by the way, let's see what's going on over there."

Then he paused again, looking at the mess on Morris's body: "Do you want to go upstairs and take a hot shower and change your clothes? I'm taller than you, but you should be able to wear my clothes."…

Take a bath in this subspace lair, and then change into the clothes of the evil god? !

These two items are not mentioned in the "Four Major Achievements of Crazy Scholars"!
Morris suddenly felt his scalp tightening, and quickly shook his head: "No, no, no need, I'll just wait here..."

"Then please take care of yourself." Duncan nodded and said, and then walked up the stairs.

As soon as he went upstairs, he saw Nina and Shirley standing at the stairs.

The expression on Shirley's face was a little disturbed. She immediately greeted Duncan when she saw him: "Mr. Duncan, is there... something wrong?"

"Why do you say that?"

"We just... heard the movement from the first floor," Shirley rubbed her hands, lowering her head as if she had done something wrong, "Actually, it was Agou who heard it, saying that the preacher finally appeared again, and History pollution or something, and a person named Fan Na is missing? Sounds like a very important person..."

Nina also looked over anxiously, she was obviously more confused than Shirley: "Uncle, what's wrong?"

"... some small things," Duncan looked at the two girls who had faintly sensed that the turmoil was approaching and felt nervous, and he calmed down for a moment, "you can just rest in the room, and if you are bored, you can go to the first floor to accompany Mrs. Morris." Let's chat, sir, it's all right."

Shirley snorted, but Nina seemed a little hesitant. After holding back for a long time, she couldn't help but stepped forward and grabbed Duncan's sleeve: "Uncle, I feel...I feel a little scared. Are you really okay? And You... what are you going to do?"

Duncan stopped and looked into Nina's eyes quietly.

Just like what he noticed before, Nina's senses are actually very keen - it's not that she can't detect anything, she's just too sensible.

But the current situation is slightly beyond her "sensible" boundary.

"Uncle, I'm actually a very powerful person," Duncan laughed suddenly, and put his hand on Nina's head, "It's just that I can't explain it to you now...you can stay with Shirley for a while, and when everything is cleared It's over, and I'll tell you what's going on."

With just this level of appeasement, Nina still felt at ease. She nodded obediently, and her voice was very soft: "...Oh."

Nina
Went downstairs with Shirley.

Duncan restrained the expression on his face, hurried back to his room, and called out the pigeon Aiyin who was eating French fries on the Lost Home.

"We have to find someone," Duncan said with a serious face when he saw the pigeon appear. "It's business, it's important. After we're done, double the ketchup."

Ai Yin immediately jumped up on the spot: "Loyalty is unspeakable, loyalty is unspeakable!"

Duncan exhaled slightly, and once again sank his mind, perceiving the distant, throbbing flames.

That was the mark he left on Fan Na,

What happened to Fan Na was an accident to him, but this accident also brought unexpected gains.

Through the "window" of Fan Na, he perceived something else just now - those flames that he released in Shirley's "dream" before!
Those flames appeared briefly in the small church in the sixth block, and then disappeared as the curtain closed again. He could only confirm that the flames were still spreading, but he was still unable to locate them accurately. But now...he can clearly Feel the presence of those flames, feel those flames around Fanna!

Although I don't know how all this happened, but there is no doubt about it——

Fanna reached the other side of the curtain.

And now, this powerful judge who bears Duncan's "mark" has become a channel for Duncan to intervene in the curtain.

"Walking in the spirit world."
