Some kind of mystery and weirdness from the universe lingers in the mind of the geologist, and his thoughts can't help but wander into some weird but fascinating situation.
I don’t know if he had slept for three days and three nights before, or if it was because of the terrifying and unreal apparition that the geologist was tossing and turning on the bed at the Gilman Hotel.
He simply couldn't drive that unusual phantom out of his mind, and until now, those horrific scenes inevitably appeared in front of his eyes.
Especially the flash of lightning when he was unconscious and fainting. Even if he thinks about it for a moment, he can feel a sense of paralysis flowing through him.
In that deep night, complex and confusing things completely occupied his mind.
Everything he had encountered before seemed to hint to him that the world was no longer the one he was familiar with.
Are human beings so insignificant in the real world? How many weird things are hidden among them?
…………
It's not just William Dale who won't be able to sleep tomorrow night, Ellis can't sleep at all at this time either.
She did not live in Innsmouth, but chose to stay on the Hydra.
On the one hand, it was because the Hydra was considered her brother's property and had encountered so many things that she needed to watch. In those days, the public opinion was crazy, and many people wanted to come and visit Yidong.
Fortunately, those people arranged by the school were blocked outside Innsmouth, and no one could come in.
After all, that ship does have a lot of secrets.
On the other hand, no...
She felt a deep sense of uneasiness in Innsmouth.
Beside Ellis' legs, there was a purple velvet cushion with a strange golden jewelry placed on it.
The light in the room is very bright, it shines in the light, lying quietly on the purple velvet cushion, noble and strange, otherworldly, although the group is strange and strange, it is extremely gorgeous, and does not require wrong aesthetics.
No matter how sensitive you are, you can appreciate its beauty, which is so beautiful that you can't help but hold your breath.
It should be some kind of crown. The front part of the crown is very high, the outline is very wide, irregular, and it looks a bit weird. The shape design seems to be specially customized for an oval head.
Should its material be mainly gold, but its luster is lighter than gold? Such luster may imply that the producer added some metals with the same luster to the material and smelted them into some kind of unique
alloy, but which alloy is not known at all.
The tiara is in very good condition, and it can be clearly seen that highly skilled craftsmen carved it in high relief. The surface of the tiara is engraved with unusual patterns, some of which are simple geometric shapes.
The shapes and some of the patterns seem to be related to the ocean.
The work is so fascinating that it would not be worth spending several hours studying it in detail.
Ellis forced himself to take his attention away from the golden crown.
I don't know why, but the longer I stared at it, the more fascinated I became by it. However, the feeling of fascination also made Ellis feel uneasy and difficult to define or describe.
At first, Ellis thought she was uneasy about the strange, exotic style of the tiara, because the art she had seen in the past was either in the style of some known country or race, or else it was not.
People who are passionate about modern art will create works that deliberately challenge public perception.
However, that crown is completely different. The creative skills it shows are very mature and close to perfection. However, as a young lady who has received various art education since childhood, Ellis has never seen that kind of creative skills.
Have had something similar.
It is also very different from the styles in Eastern and Western cultures, ancient and modern cultures that Ellis has learned about, as if they were works of art created from another planet.
That made her couldn't help but think of another more fascinating item.
...Professor Wilson's book.
The pattern on it was something she had never seen before. It looked like an ordinary book, or maybe a notebook?
However, the patterns on the patterned crown are so beautiful that people can't help but think of the stars in the sky. The whole body also emits a shimmering light, and the material is also very unique, with inlays on the surface.
It doesn't look like a gem or any other substance.
Probably the only thing that was different from the crown was that the silver-red book did not make him feel deeply uneasy, but rather made him feel at ease.
Her uneasy feeling may have another potential reason for the same re-examination, which is those strange images expressed through graphics and mathematics.
All the graphics hint at the existence of distant mysteries and unimaginable abyss in time and space. The monotonous aquatic animal images in the reliefs also become almost sinister.
Other patterns embossed on it include many legendary monsters, half fish and half frog, grotesque, vicious, ugly and disgusting. This feeling lingers in her heart and cannot be dissipated for a long time, as if it comes from the depths of her genes.
Those images seemed to evoke certain cells and tissues deep in the human body whose memory functions were very close to those of the ancestors. He could not help but imagine that the bodies of those fish and frog monsters that were disrespectful to gods were filled with unknown ultimates.
Mysteries and inhuman evil.
The first time he saw the tiara, Ellis realized that it was definitely an ordinary item.
But two days ago, she briefly left Innsmouth and came to the Historical Society in Newburyport, hoping to find relevant information about something. In the showroom, she saw the one at first sight.
Strange crown.
That made her realize it instantly.
That crown is closely related to the continent, even if it is full of fish carcasses, and to Innsmouth.
Ellis didn't think much, he just spent a lot of money to buy the collection, and then brought it to the ship in fascination.
She believed that the crown had some special connection with the changes in the ship.
Ellis' eyes once again moved involuntarily to the strange jewelry.
Among the red hair, a small sea anemone began to grow again.

Arkham, Miskatonic University president outside.
Principal Lovecraft, wearing crystal glasses, put the pen in his lap and let the ink dry naturally.
On his desk are a dozen pieces of unfinished manuscript paper.
Ellis' name appears in the party.
Beside his legs, there is a pile of novel manuscripts that have been written and copied——
