Everyone couldn't help but curse when they took action immediately.
“Fuck! Fuck!
It's a storm!
I really didn’t expect to encounter such a high-level storm in a ghost place like the Lost Sea!”
One craftsman couldn't help but curse, his voice full of helplessness and anger.
It was only at this moment that many people watching the movie finally realized:
It turns out that in addition to the real night watchmen, there is also a group of invisible guardians called "Sentinels" at the border.
But the era in the movie is obviously different from what they imagined.
(The location they were in turned out to be an extremely huge steam ship. I thought it was some steampunk-style city.)
It's just that Su Wen had a different thought while watching,
But he hadn't decided on his thoughts yet, so he didn't say anything. He just gently handed some snacks to the girl next to him.
And in the next second, the tension in the movie skyrocketed again:
With the sound of storm reports echoing intermittently in my ears,
Vic's heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate, and an unprecedented sense of tension and excitement surged into his heart.
He took a deep breath and followed the crowd resolutely, crossing the swaying deck and heading towards the center of the storm that was about to be swallowed up by darkness.
When Old Mott saw the young man's behavior, he couldn't help shouting:
“Vic!
Toros-Vic!!!, are you crazy?!"
"I have to go, it's the only thing I can do!"
he shouted,
The figure in action stopped at all.
The young man wearing a beret was instantly surrounded by strong winds and waves as soon as he stepped out of the shelter.
Under the dark night,
Lightning and thunder intertwined into a thrilling picture, as if the whole world had fallen into chaos and madness at this moment.
The rain hit his face hard like a sharp blade, stinging his skin and seeming to test his will.
But Vic didn't back down,
He just gritted his teeth and looked firmly at the sail swaying in the strong wind.
Because he knows very well that sails are the key to an ocean-going ship's survival in storms, and its stability and safety must be ensured.
So he quickly approached the sail and grabbed the tow rope tightly with both hands, as if it was the only link he had to fight the storm.
The wind became more and more fierce, and Vic's body was blown almost out of balance, but he still held on to the rope and used all his strength to stabilize the sail.
The rain blurred his vision.
I don't know how long it took.
Accompanied by a ‘boom’!
The huge ocean-going ship, which was shaking and about to be completely torn apart, seemed to have hit something, and finally stopped.
But because everything was shrouded in darkness, no one knew exactly where they were.
Seeing this, Su Wen was finally able to confirm his guess:
"Menghan,
Have you ever heard me tell you about the name 'Toros-Vic'?
That old gentleman is our only guide to the kingdom of eternal night, but he is more than just a name.
He still:
[The Kingdom of Eternal Night—The Last Sentinel].”
But even Su Wen didn't know much about the old sentinel's past.
Because that is no longer the past he can experience.
It is in this darkness that the movie makes the bumpy scenes slightly calmer.
But due to the sudden impact,
Vic also fell to the ground. He wiped his forehead, which was covered with a liquid that was mixed with blood or rain. He collapsed directly on the ground.
But in the end, he just showed a relaxed smile that he no longer had the strength to hold on to.
The only thing left in this young man's eyes was the last scene of the white-haired old craftsman Mott rushing up.
You boy!"
Old Mott's voice was slightly trembling with anger. He wanted to teach Vic a lesson about the cost of taking risks in a storm.
However, when he saw Vic's face covered in rain but still determined.
The anger in my heart instantly turned into helplessness and memories of my past self.
The old craftsman suddenly waved his hand, not on Vic, but on the mast beside him, making a loud "bang" sound, as if he also vented the emotions in his heart.
"That's crazy!"
These four words are not only a reproach to Vic, but also recognition of his courage to defy hardships.
And at this time,
Waves of faint light penetrated the pure darkness near the deck, and it reflected on everyone's face.
Everyone looked up towards the light source,
I saw in the distance whether it was flat land or mountains, countless figures holding torches were slowly approaching.
"Are we coming to an island?"
A voice sounded with a bit of uncertainty and excitement, breaking the silence on the deck,
“It’s not an uninhabited island yet!”
"It's a good thing if someone proves that there are supplies!" Another voice said immediately, with hope shining in his eyes.
As they struggled to survive during the continuous trek for several days, the lack of supplies had already become their biggest worry.
However,
Not everyone is so optimistic:
"Aren't you afraid that this is closer to Route 16, Somalia or Route 11, where pirates are rampant?"
One sentry raised concerns, his tone revealing a calm contemplation of unknown dangers.
But as soon as the words fell,
Then a muscular man with gnarled muscles and a stubbled face stood up. He clenched his fists and his eyes were burning with the fire of battle.
"It's even better if it's a pirate!"
He roared, his voice full of desire for battle,
“Then we’ll give him a hard fuck!
Let these sea worms know who is the real conqueror of this sea!"
But Muscle Sentinel, who had such violent thoughts, was quickly beaten up by the captain of the ocean-going ship [Fifth Builder], Farodis, and the chief craftsman Mott.
They know that in this unknown sea, they need to be cautious when making first contact with any strange force to avoid unnecessary conflicts.
Therefore, the two men selected several crew members who were both resourceful, brave and sociable.
Let them serve as envoys to the gathering place of the indigenous people holding torches.
Although Torosvik is full of curiosity, after all, he is a language idiot who cannot even learn a second foreign language besides his mother tongue.
He had no choice but to stay on the ship due to his embarrassing language skills, waiting anxiously for the return of the messenger.
But the good news came soon,
After two and a half days of patient communication and observation, the communication crew finally returned to the ocean-going ship with valuable information:
These Aboriginal people have a unique and strong accent despite their language.
But after several days of hard work, both parties successfully established basic communication with them.
So far,
A group of people finally knew the name of this place:
【Eternal Night】
"A name I've never heard of."
The old craftsman shook his head
Old Mott was a legendary craftsman who was able to advance to the third level relying on border materials during the low spiritual tide of the 20th century and lived to be eighty years old.
"If even you haven't heard of this name.
perhaps,
Only the Great Library and Documents of Kanaroterol [Book of the Black Sea] has records of this place.”
Captain Faroldis thought,
But contacting the unknown is, after all, the mission of the border sentry.
He finally decided to start friendly exchanges with this place and collect materials at the same time.
I want to repair the ocean-going ship [Fifth Builder] as planned, which hit countless reefs during the storm and is now almost scrapped.
