Mysteries of the Earthsea

Chapter 1: Captain's Diary

   Through the eighth year, June 14th is sunny

   "Recently, the vague whispering in my ears has appeared again, that kind of sound that doesn't sound like a sound, chaotic and dark, this garbage place is really not for people.

  My first officer, Old John, told me that he could use his method to try the fragrant girls in the Red Lips Hotel.

   I admit that I had a thought in my heart, but in the end I resisted it. I can't waste my hard-earned Echo Coins in that kind of place, and I can't relax for a moment to go home.

  Humans are species that live on the ground. Humans can appear in the underground sea, which proves that there is a way back to the ground. I must find it!

   I dreamed of my family again yesterday. I miss them, but I can't remember what they look like..."

The sudden shaking of    Mouse interrupted Charles Reid's writing.

  The old oil lamp placed next to the diary illuminates the face of its owner. With black pupils and black hair, it is a normal Asian face, but his face is almost white and transparent, just like the vampire in the movie.

   From the perspective of modern people, Charles is a little handsome, but his expression is heavy and tired at this time, and he looks very haggard.

   listened to the sound of the ocean waves outside the window for a while. After Charles found that there was nothing abnormal, he picked up the pen and wrote again.

   "I don’t need those special service workers. Keeping a diary can also improve my auditory hallucinations. Recently, I can sleep for 5 hours every night. I haven’t slept so peacefully in a long time.

   Of course, based on the lessons learned from the predecessors who write diaries, I deliberately write in Chinese that only I can understand. "

   "呲~~" The harsh metal rubbing sound outside the window inserted, the sound was like something scratching the bottom of the boat with a sharp nail.

   "Pop." The diary was closed, and Charles, frowning, walked toward the round porthole.

   He poked his head out and found that outside the porthole, as he had seen 8 years ago, the dull sky and dark green sea formed a dark curtain in the distance.

  Darkness rules everything in the outside world. There seems to be some monster brewing in the darkness, and everything is strange.

   But in the Earth Sea, there is no starry sky, no moon, endless darkness is the main theme here, and darkness just proves that everything is normal.

   Looking out of the normal window, Charles' brow furrowed tighter. His experience of sailing over the past few years told him that something must be wrong, so he decided to check it out.

   Charles opened the bedside table, and there were hundreds of yellow bullets inside, rolling around with the waves.

   drew out the revolver around his waist, and after loading the familiar bullet, he lifted his foot and walked towards the cab.

   "Captain, why is it so early today? It's not time for your shift yet."

At the helm in the cockpit was a stubborn, fat old man. On his left side of the chair was a teenager who was only seventeen or eighteen years old. The sailor suit on his body showed his identity. The two faces resembled Eastern Europe. People, like Charles, do not have a trace of blood.

   "First officer, why is the Mouse a bit bumpy? Is the course normal?" Charles asked John who was at the helm.

   After he finished speaking, he walked over and stepped on the leg of the chair, awakening the boy.

   When the boy saw that his captain was coming, he quickly touched the saliva on the corner of his mouth and got up from the chair in a hurry.

"Haha, it's probably something underwater that smells our meat again. You know, there are more disgusting things in the sea than fish. Don't worry, the Rat is an iron ship. They can't hit it." The fat old man said that he stood a step back and gave up the helm to his captain.

   Listening to the report of the chief mate, Charles still did not relax his vigilance.

  In this weird place, humans are no longer at the top of the food chain. The only thing you can rely on to survive is to be cautious.

   Charles pressed a button on the old device, the searchlight in front of him was bright, and his eyes scanned the sea over the transparent glass.

   Between the sea and the cockpit is a deck full of cargo. The entire ship does not look big, with a length of more than 30 meters.

   "The route to the Coral Islands has been voyaged many times by various cargo ships. Those things can't be boring and a little abnormal." Charles held the polished reflective rudder, his brows tightly locked.

  Old John was taken aback, "Did we deviate from the course? Impossible, you see the navigation mark is still far away."

   He pointed his finger at the faint light spot in the distance.

   In the underground ocean where there are no stars, the only thing that can give directions is the compass, which is the bright beacon placed on the route. As long as you can see the beacon, it proves that the route is a safe route explored by the explorer.

   At this time, the pupils in Charles's eyes, who were looking at the sea, suddenly shrank to the minimum, and swallowed with difficulty. "Then... how long have you been looking at the navigation mark?"

   "I think it will be a few minutes, I have been staring at it." At the end, Old John's voice slowly became quieter, and a trace of panic appeared on his fat face.

  After sailing for so long, I haven't passed this navigation mark. Obviously, the navigation mark is also moving at the same speed as the steamboat. There is a problem with that thing!

   Suddenly Charles seemed to be winding up, turning the rudder wheel crazily with both hands, and the left rudder was full. U U Reading www.uukanshu.cOM

   Accompanied by the creak of metal, the steamboat under them began to turn, but fortunately, the boat turned quickly, and the mouse began to distance itself from the weird navigation mark.

   Before Charles could breathe a sigh of relief, the boy next to him pointed his finger at the glass window behind him, his eyes widened as if he had seen a ghost.

   "Ship... Captain! That thing is approaching us! So fast! It's about to catch up!"

   "Fuck!" Charles yelled at a tube next to him, "Big wheel tube! Turn the vortex furnace to its maximum! Something is chasing us!!"

   "Yes, Captain!" A simple voice came from the iron pipe.

   Thick black smoke continuously came out of the chimney on the ship, and the speed of the steam ship began to climb.

   "It's still approaching! It's so fast! It's about to catch up with us! God! What kind of monster is that!"

   The boy's voice was raised several times because of extreme fear, and his whole body was shaking like a sieve, as if he was about to be in shock.

   "Deep! Close your eyes!!" Charles, with a high spirit, stared at his calf, kicking him to the ground.

   John next to him pressed his head firmly on the floor with his hands, and blushed and shouted frantically at him: "Don't look, don't think! The captain will take us back."

   Just after the voice fell, there was a loud "touch", and the cabin shook violently, and the two people on the ground rolled into a ball. Charles clung to the rudder and was not thrown out.

   "Captain, it hit it!"

   Charles's face was green, and his cheeks bulged slightly from his teeth.

   He put his mouth to the side of the pipe and screamed, "The big wheel tube! The vortex furnace is overloaded for thirty seconds!!"

   "Captain! No way! This thing is too old! It will explode!"
