Listening to Duncan's instructions, Agatha immediately thought of the "corpse" that was used as the material for the temporary arrival.
She nodded lightly without raising any objection: "Yes, I will consider this method."
Duncan hummed, then looked at Agatha who was appearing in the flame door with some curiosity, observed the faint and blurry scenery behind her, and asked casually: "How is the situation over there now?"
"The cathedral has returned to stability. We are contacting churches across the city today to confirm the manpower currently available and to calculate the losses in the past period," Agatha replied, with a hint of joy in her tone, "You were like you last night
As I said, the city-state is living in peace, and there are really no shadows growing in the darkness. Even the mental hospitals and cemetery areas that are most likely to cause problems have not experienced any changes. This makes me feel relieved - if in the future,
If we can do this, we will have half the things we need to worry about.”
"I'm talking about your situation," Duncan raised his eyebrows, "With your current body, will there be any problems with such a high-intensity work?"
"I don't feel tired - maybe becoming a corpse is a good thing for me now," Agatha said calmly, "A corpse will not be tired, and it does not need rest in the conventional sense, as long as
If I can also find peace through prayer and meditation, I won't have any problems."
"You seem to be in the prayer room of the church?"
"Yes, I am in the cathedral - this was the original room of Bishop Ivan. It is very quiet." Agatha turned back and glanced at this familiar and special room, with a hint of sadness in her tone, "Now,
This is left to me."
Duncan suddenly felt a strange feeling. He hesitated for several seconds and couldn't help but ask: "Does Bartok mind if you contact me like this in the cathedral?"
Agatha was stunned: "..."
Shirley and Agou next to them were also stunned.
"Captain, how come you always think about problems from such an incredible perspective?" Shirley muttered in a low voice, "And this sounds weird..."
Duncan glanced at the girl expressionlessly: "Sir, don't interrupt when you speak, and stop writing when you get the chance - you haven't written a word since just now, right?"
Shirley sighed immediately and continued to fight desperately with her homework. Agatha, who was projected in the flames, finally woke up and turned her head to look at the statue of the God of Death not far away with a strange expression. After a long time, she turned back: "I
I haven’t thought about this issue at all…”
Then she paused and asked thoughtfully: "Fanna is with you, have you ever asked her this question? How did she answer?"
Duncan thought about it and thought it made sense: "I really haven't asked yet. I can ask when I have time."
Agatha subconsciously opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but in the end nothing came out.
After a few seconds of awkward silence, she finally found another topic: "In addition, I am ready to check the situation in the Boiling Gold Mine."
"Has calm returned to the mine?" Duncan raised his eyebrows, "I remember you said it would take at least a few more days."
"Calm has been restored to the general level. To be honest... there may still be some risks in exploring the depths now, but I don't plan to wait any longer." Agatha's expression turned serious, and she seemed to have made up her mind. "I can feel the depths.
Something is calling me, and this feeling has become stronger since this morning. If I wait any longer... I'm worried that I will miss something very important."
Duncan nodded slightly, and after a few seconds of silence, he suddenly said: "Before departure, go to 44 Oak Street to find me."
Agatha's eyes widened in surprise: "You want to come with me?"
"I'm also curious about what was left there."
"I understand, I will find you before departure."
Duncan nodded, waved his hand to disperse the flames in the air, then exhaled and lowered his head to look at the empty fishing rod in his hand.
"...Forget it, the air force is also part of fishing," he muttered, then turned to look at Shirley and Agou who were lying next to the barrel, "I'm going back to the room first, Agou, you keep an eye on the snow."
Li, let her copy at least the first five pages of the vocabulary book - you can do whatever you want after the homework is completed."
Agou quickly stood up, nodding eagerly and wagging its bony tail. It wasn't until Duncan's figure disappeared from the stairs not far away that the deep hound finally breathed a sigh of relief and returned to where he lay down at the beginning.
place, but before lying down, it suddenly raised its head and glanced at Shirley: "Don't be distracted, write quickly, write quickly."
"Agou, are you really urging me?" Shirley immediately slumped her shoulders, "My hands are sore..."
"I don't even have fingers and I can still write a diary - you have ten fingers on two hands," Agou shook his head and muttered as he lay down again, "Read more and read more.
Shirley, don't be impatient. The captain really does it for your own good. Haven't you always wanted to have the same life as other children? I really can't give it to you, but the captain wants to give it to you - a being like him can exert favor.
There are too many ways, but he chose to let himself care about you and Nina like a human being, you know how..."
When Shirley heard this, she quickly waved her hands and begged for mercy: "Hey, stop talking, stop talking, I know, I know, I'm not stupid - Agou, why are you acting like an old woman..."
Agou grumbled twice more, but did not continue talking to Shirley. Instead, he lowered his head and continued to study the geometry textbook in front of him with great interest.
On the pages of the book, the words and symbols outline the knowledge and experience of the predecessors, and the lines and formulas describe the operation of the world. Agou's eyes filled with blood-red light are concentrating on reading the chapter that condenses the wisdom of civilization.
In the mind of the deep demon, geometric figures and mathematical formulas are constantly sketched out according to the content of the textbook.
There is also a flashing red light source and a series of flashing light spots arranged like a matrix, flashing between the geometric images and formulas.
The next second, Shirley seemed to feel something, and suddenly raised her head to look in the direction of Agou. The latter woke up from a certain state almost instantly, and the whole dog jumped several meters high: "Oh shit!!"
Shirley was directly dragged by the chain and flew into the air, and then fell to the deck with a bang. After getting up in a hurry, she immediately rushed forward, hugged Agou's head and shook it hard: "Why are you so crazy! You still have it!"
What happened to you just now? Why do I feel that your breath has changed?!"
"I...I don't know!" Agou's head was shaken by Shirley and he managed to break free, but he was obviously still confused, "I thought I saw something flashing past my eyes just now.
, I didn’t even have time to see clearly what it was...but it’s all fine now.”
Aiyi, who was pecking at French fries, suddenly tilted his head and looked at Agou curiously: "The remote server is not responding. Please check the network connection?"
Agou didn't react for a moment and subconsciously said: "Huh?"
But Aiyi just flapped his wings and walked aside as if nothing happened just now, pacing and muttering: "Do you want to use Q coins? Do you want to use Dayue Card? Do you want to use passes?"
"Ignore it, this bird is even more confused than Alice," Shirley waved her hand and turned Agou's head towards her. There was obviously worry on her face, "Are you okay? Do you do math problems all day long?
Burned out your brain?"
"I've never heard that a deep demon can burn out the brain..." Agou himself became suspicious, "I don't even know if I have this organ."
"Of course you haven't heard of it. You are the only deep demon in the world who uses his brain. Even if your compatriots really have brains, there is no chance of them burning out... Hey, don't move yet. I'll check it for you."
As Shirley muttered, she hurriedly checked Agou from top to bottom, and then carefully sensed the mental changes in herself and the other person through the connection of the symbiotic chain, but in the end she still didn't notice it.
what is the problem.
everything is normal.
"I just said it's okay," Agou breathed a sigh of relief and said casually, "Maybe he attracted something while reading, and when he was about to run out, he realized that it was a 'fellow', so he went back...
"
While muttering, it lay down again and used its paws to pick up the draft paper in front of it.
Shirley next to her suddenly became anxious: "Hey, are you still planning to watch it?"
Agou said casually while drawing auxiliary lines on the paper: "I'm just short of a big question. I just have an idea for the last step."
Shirley: "..."
She looked at Agou who was writing calculations with great concern, and was ready to pull the chain on her arm at any time if something went wrong, but nothing happened until the other person finished solving the big question that seemed to her like a book from heaven.
.
Agou threw the pen on the deck and looked up at Shirley.
"Look, I just said it's okay -" There was a hint of relief in its tone, but soon, its eyes fell on the wooden barrel next to it.
"Shirley, you haven't finished your homework yet."
"ah--"
Listening to the girl's elongated screams, Agou just shook his head, and then his eyes fell on the book he had just been reading.
It seems...there is indeed nothing wrong.
But it was certain that it really saw something - not a "comatriot" attracted by books, but something else, something more mysterious and weird.
