Mysteries of the Earthsea

Chapter 580 City

"Mr. Charles, Little Momo said it's weird inside, but no one is in danger." Standing on Charles' shoulder, Lily translated the original words of the explorer mouse.

Frowning, Charles held the binoculars and looked at the steamboat parked on the Gobi Desert in the distance.

Judging from the traces, the ship should have set off a month and a half ago. Just after getting the trace photos of 068, Charles deliberately sent several ships to explore in advance, and it is one of them.

However, the current metal and steel ship has completely changed its appearance. The hull that should have been streamlined has become extremely weird and distorted.

As if it had been turned into a piece of plasticine before, and then let a child play with it for half an hour, something must have happened to make this ship become like this.

"Come on, let's go and have a look." After Charles finished speaking, he raised his feet and walked into the distance.

As the distance got closer, Charles saw more details, not only the twisted and deformed metal of the hull, but also the glass of the cockpit.

What should be fragile glass is twisted into a jagged mirror.

This must be done by some kind of extremely strange power, but Charles couldn't figure out what kind of power it was. The things on the surface were far more weird than the Earth Sea.

"Crack~~" The curved hatch was pulled off by Charles, his right eye jumped out of the eye socket, and he quickly crawled inside.

The speed of the spider is very fast, it quickly crawls across the undulating corridor, and has a panoramic view of everything inside.

The twisted one on the outside is the same on the inside. The black and red spider with its own unique lines looks so uncoordinated inside.

Soon Charles stopped in the kitchen, and it crawled in. All the pots and pans inside were twisted, even the pickles in the glass jars.

The spider jumped onto the cutting board and injected digestive juice into a piece of dried meat in front of it.

"The food is good, and you can eat it." Charles said to himself outside the deck.

"The fresh water tank is filled with light beer, which is not poisonous, and the fuel tank is also sufficient. It can be said that there is nothing lacking on this ship except people."

The spider quickly crawled out after going around in a big circle, and crawled back into the eye socket along Charles' trouser leg.

"Bandages, are there enough supplies on the ship?" Charles turned to his first mate and asked.

"There's enough water...but the others are...almost...half used up...and we need to reserve...for the return trip..."

After thinking for a while, Charles directly ordered the crew to collect the materials in this strange ship. It has already arrived here, and the exploration can only continue if there are enough materials.

As for what happened to the people on this ship, Charles no longer thought about it, it was nothing more than death.

Barrels of twisted fuel and food were hauled out and loaded onto Charles' ship.

Everyone re-boarded and continued to follow the 068 movement rules. Charles had another long and boring journey ahead, but on the third day after encountering the ship, a brand new landform appeared in front of Charles. The ruins of houses.

At the beginning, there were only one or two piles, but gradually more and more ruins were piled up, and finally a complete city appeared in front of everyone.

A special city where everything has been weathered, some high-rise buildings have collapsed while others are standing in place. It looks very bleak under the purple light.

"Mr. Charles, have you lived in this kind of place before?" Lily leaned close to Charles's ear and asked, her voice was very low, as if she was afraid of waking up the unknown things in the city, even though it seemed that there was nothing in it now.

The tracks of 068 crashed straight into the city, crushing two roads in the ruins.

Charles' boat slowly drove inward along the two traces of ruins.

Standing on the deck, Charles tried hard to identify which city it was, and whether he was currently in Asia or Europe.

However, the weathering of the wind and sand has made it difficult for him to see the details of the city, and it is also difficult to judge the landmark buildings in the city.

But gradually he felt that something was wrong with this city. Looking around, the city was very weird, with only crowded high-rise buildings, which was obviously abnormal. No city had ever planned it like this.

The weathered tall buildings with the same height and width looked so weird. This frugal style reminded Charles of the Foundation for no reason.

"Impossible, why did the foundation build these cities on it? The surface is full of dangers, and it is completely useless for them to do so."

"But if it is said that this city is left over from my era, it seems a little unreasonable. It has been 1,000 years, and the traces of the city are still there?"

Suddenly, between the two tall buildings on the right, a vertical prismatic eye flashed past, and Charles tensed up instantly, and immediately ordered the crew to enter a state of combat readiness.

Just as the front and rear deck guns turned their black muzzles that way, the owner of the eyes came out from between the buildings. It was a worm, a few hundred meters long, made of a pile of black jigsaw puzzles.

It looked like it was floating in the air, and it was slowly approaching Charles.

Seeing such a giant approaching this way, everyone was extremely nervous.

They stared at Charles nervously, waiting for him to give the order to attack, but Charles didn't intend to do anything for a long time.

He stared intently at the bottom of the bug, but there was no sign of this guy.

"Captain! Fight or run!!" Di Pu's expression was very anxious, but Charles still ignored him and stared at the bug.

As the distance got closer, everyone noticed details that they hadn't noticed before. The bug wasn't floating in the air, and it had dense needle-like long legs growing under it.

"Captain! What are you doing!! It's coming!!"

"Shh, don't move, don't move, just stand where you are." Charles' strange eyes saw some kind of strange light coming from deep underground.

Although it was strange, Charles could easily see the light buried deep in the ground.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the worm came to the top of the deck, and the long, thin needle fell down, passing through everyone's skulls in an instant, and piercing straight into the floor.

In the next second, the long needle was pulled out and continued to fall forward.

The translucent slender needle legs are like raindrops, dripping on everyone's body and then disappearing.

Lily cautiously stretched out her little paw, touched the long needle in front of her, and passed it directly.

This thing is not physical, or this thing is no longer on the same plane as Charles.
