First, businessman Anthony was unable to contact Mayor Mateus, and then he was completely unable to enter the ice-free port of Vina. Not long after, a message came from Midnight City. An hour ago, the ice-free port of Vina was enveloped by sea water.
"How long until we get there."
Lu Li on the deck asked Andrea on the vast sea.
Pusius held up the clock and turned his paws little by little, pointing in the direction opposite to the hour hand. Andrea whistled.
In the middle of the night 12 hours later, they will arrive at the ice-free port of Wiener.
"Is it still... too late...?" Ophelia asked.
"I have no idea."
In the following time, Lu Li had frequent contact with Midnight City, asking about the details of the Deep Sea God's arrival.
He doesn't want to destroy Midnight City.
Knowing Lu Li's needs, Dean Lawrence found out from the Giant Tree Academy a secret that only the upper echelons of Midnight City knew: the God of the Deep Sea wanted to rob Midnight City of its faith.
Lady Midnight led the gods in the city, as well as the old sewer leaders who were willing to help, to stop the God of the Deep outside Midnight City, and also stopped the existence of the Ancient One who was seriously injured and coveted Him.
In addition, there are some troubles brought by him. The weirdness on the other side of the world's back mountain range and the deserted land is like mosquitoes following the blood trail, and the weird activities around Midnight City have increased significantly.
The God of the Deep Sea may not have rebelled. He was injured for some reason and needed believers to restore his strength and injuries. After Midnight City refused, Vena Freeze Port became his next target.
The situation of Weiner Ice-free Port is not very good. They lack the strong power to fight against the God of the Deep Sea, and Midnight City has no time to help. We can only hope that Weiner Ice-free Port has its trump card to stand in the dark world, and the God of the Deep Sea, who has been seriously injured, is transformed.
Cities take time.
Lu Li returned to the captain's cabin to rest and face the upcoming trouble.
At night, Pusius woke Lu Li from his sleep and told him that the strange fog had faded.
Stepping out of the captain's cabin and onto the deck, the cold night wind was no longer shrouded in mist, and the darkness extended into the invisible sea.
They have entered the range enveloped by the power of the God of the Deep Sea.
"There are less than two hours left before the time Andrea said." Pusius continued.
Not long after they continued sailing, a luminous jellyfish-like outline appeared on the distant sea surface that could be seen visually.
As it gets closer, it becomes clearer and larger, until it is completely visible: a mysterious fluorescent water film rising from the sea and wrapping the entire city.
The sea water surges, obscuring the internal details and revealing only a faint, dim haze.
"Can you rush over?"
They were very close to the water film.
Andrea whistled in response to Lu Li and rushed towards the water film without slowing down to show her determination.
After closing the passage to the lower deck, they retreated to the captain's cabin to install and check things that could not be fixed or fixed. Then Lu Li tied himself, Pusius and Ophelia to the pillars with ropes to prepare for the upcoming violent events.
bumpy.
The water film outside the captain's cabin window gradually takes up the entire field of view, becoming increasingly clear, and one can almost glimpse the fluorescent flowing sea water.
Amid the violent tremors, Andrea rushed into the water film. Darkness replaced the fluorescence and enveloped the captain's cabin. Broken bubbles and sea debris flashed away against the glass.
Sea water poured into the captain's cabin through the weakest door, bringing a cold and frightening feeling of cramped oppression.
Ten seconds later, a bright light suddenly appeared outside the window, and Andrea rushed out of the water film
Then he fell from a height of more than ten meters.
Under the feeling of weightlessness and squeezing from all directions, the ship's hull made a distorted and dull sound as it crashed into the seabed.
The ripples of the huge waves swayed away, and calm gradually returned to the outside of the ice-free harbor of Vina.
Suddenly, a large ship surging in the waves emerged from the water and rushed towards the port with water pouring from the deck.
Lu Li untied the rope and stepped on the stabilized floor to untie Pusius. He ignored Ophelia who was waiting for him to approach and looked at the ice-free port of Weiner in the distance.
The water film surrounding the city was like a city under the sea, with sparkling waves flowing. There were lights... and firelight in the city. There was some commotion, but it was not serious.
"Lu Li..."
Ophelia burned the rope and signaled Lu Li to pay attention to his wrist.
The sanity counter is rattling. Pollution is everywhere in the water film.
24 hours.
Lu Li remembered an analysis signed by Jushu Academy that he had received a few hours ago.
It records a scholar's research on faith tampering many years ago. Giant Tree Academy replaced it, changed it, and completed the final conclusion: It takes 24 hours for the God of the Deep Sea to tamper with faith.
Therefore, Lu Li and the others have 24 hours to avoid being invaded by the will of the God of the Deep Sea. If they want to save the citizens of Weiner Freeze Port, there are only 12 hours left.
Quiet and cold Andrea sailed into the calm and dim port.
The battleships and soldiers disappeared, and there were no wreckage on the sea. I don’t know if they died in the battle with the God of the Deep Sea or
The searchlights that lit up on the sea strongly rejected Lu Li's guess. Two battleships approached Andrea and them at the port, with dozens of cannons aimed at them.
"We've been waiting for you, fallen exorcist."
The Inquisition Guards holding torches walked out of the workers' hut.
Obviously, their arrival has nothing to do with friendship.
"Don't act rashly, it will kill Mr. Lu Li next to you." The guard captain with a goatee pointed at the artillery aimed at them, reminding Ophelia.
"I'm here to solve the crisis in Weiner Freeze Port." Lu Li calmly looked at the captain of the trial center whom he had never met before.
"Come here in a time of crisis... I don't think so. And you know that evil god, right?" With some uncomfortable regret and sigh, he gestured for the team members to approach Lu Li.
"Pride and Prejudice." Lu Li just said.
Calling the ancient one an evil god is arrogance, and calling Lu Li a degenerate person is prejudice.
Under the attack of the battleship, Lu Li did not resist and allowed the Inquisition Guards to control Psius, Ophelia, and even the merchant Anthony.
On the contrary, Andrea was treated better. The people in the Inquisition refused to set foot on the strange place, and were only watched by two battleships.
Letting the team members tie his wrists roughly, Lu Li looked at the captain: "Will Bishop Usa come to see me?"
"Your Majesty, the Bishop did have intentions, but not now." The captain, who kept a distance from Lu Li from beginning to end, replied: "After solving the trouble of the evil god's invasion,"
"Do you have a way to get rid of him?" Lu Li asked back.
The captain showed a vague sarcasm: "You have no right to know."
"That's the ancient god of the deep sea! Except for Mr. Lu Li, there's no way you can deal with him!" Pusius, who had his limbs tied like a lamb, struggled and shouted.
The captain showed disgust and refused to talk to Pusius.
"I have an analysis of the Giant Tree Academy in Midnight City in my coat pocket. The transformation of the God of the Deep will last for 24 hours, and there are still 12 hours left." Lu Li said, looking at the captain who was still confident.
"Midnight City too? No surprise."
Prejudice has long distorted the captain's mind. He stubbornly believed that Lu Li was falling into the abyss and waved his hand to signal to his men.
