"Isn't the danger gone? ”

Helen had just come down from the lookout, leaning against the side of the boat in a daze, when she heard a gentle voice in her ear.

"Your Excellency. Helen looked at the man standing beside her, and was about to bow, but was stopped by a soft force. Helen thought for a moment, and did not continue to salute, but only said a little more respectfully.

"I just think it's a little weird, the sea seems a little abnormal these days. Helen stroked her hair, her brow with concern in her eyes.

"Why do you think it's abnormal?" said Ingre, "There is no absolutely safe area in the Devil's Sea, isn't it normal for hurricanes and waves to occur?"

"I don't mean the climate, I mean the ......" Helen tried to find some words to describe how she felt, but found that it didn't seem quite right to use any words: "Don't you think, my lord, that the sea has been so quiet and creepy these days?"

"Quiet?" Ingres listened, the wind still howling, the waves still coming and going, even the undercurrents at the bottom of the sea gurgling. He didn't feel anything quiet, of course, if you put aside these natural sounds, this part of the journey is "relatively" quiet.

But isn't this kind of quiet, as long as the climate doesn't get bad?

"What do you mean by quiet?" Ingres asked curiously.

Helen shook her head: "It's hard for me to describe, it's a kind of tranquility that makes me feel very nervous, and I feel that this route is not as active as it was when I came, as if it were dead." ”

Helen's description is full of abstract concepts. The only conclusion that Ingres could draw was probably a hunch on the part of Helen.

Ingres looked at Helen with an inquiring expression.

Helen lowered her head, shook her head slightly, and sighed slightly: "Maybe I'm too worried." ”

Helen recalls telling Captain Alwyn about her discovery, and the other man looked at her like Angels, not believing or disbelieving her, but gently dissuading her that "she is too tired to go and rest".

Alwyn was well-intentioned, and Helen was well aware. However, this kindness made her feel like a madman.

She wanted to convince herself that this was an illusion, but the unprecipitated feeling of apprehension in her heart made her really unable to justify herself.

"Not really. ”

Helen raised her head suddenly, "Your Excellency, do you believe me?"

"Maybe what you said is true, the people who live on the sea are closer to the frequency of the ocean. Once the frequency of the ocean changes, you can't describe it yourself, but your whole body, from the mind to the subconscious, is warning you, and that's your intuition. Ingres said.

Helen seemed to understand something, and repeated softly: "The frequency of the ocean?"

"It's just a generalization, maybe it's the humidity at sea, the change in the wind, the direction of the currents...... Of course, there may be a more subtle concept. You've been living on the ship, so you're always in this frequency, and you don't remember the external information yourself, but your body helps you remember it. Once the body notices these changes in external information, it will naturally give you back. ”

Helen nodded in a trance: "Then am I really worried?"

"Not necessarily, if you have time, you might as well tell me about your feelings and changes during this time. ”

Helen looked at the sea in the distance, the clouds were clear and the sea was flat, and the smell in the wind was also normal, thinking that the Yunluo would come for a while, there should be no danger, so she said to Angel: "Okay, when should I start?"

Ingres didn't answer Helen, but glanced at the fourth floor with his spare eyes, and he faintly felt a gaze coming through it: "If you don't mind, you might as well come to my room to talk." ”

Helen was stunned for a moment, as if she thought of something, her fair cheeks slowly climbed a touch of peach pink, and finally nodded gently.

Angel didn't notice the change in Helen's expression, but led her back to the room on the third floor.

As soon as he entered the room, Angel immediately arranged a spiritual barrier around the room.

When he was talking to Helen earlier, he sensed that Roman seemed to be spying on him...... Roman's behavior made Ingres a little puzzled, he shouldn't be a gossip person, right?

Or is he simply spying on his own actions?

Thinking of Roman's suspicious character, Ingres felt that something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, so he simply took Helen back to the house, wanting to continue to test it.

Sure enough, not long after Angel set up the spiritual barrier, he sensed a tentacle of spiritual power wandering outside his room.

There are only two transcendents on the entire ship, him and Roman. There is no doubt that the spiritual power outside is tentacles, and it must be Roman's.

Ingre's expression was slightly dark, he had felt that Roman was indeed paying attention to them.

If he didn't do it sooner or later, when he was talking to Helen, Roman began to snoop. This made Ingres not only strange, but also extra attentive.

Fortunately, when Roman sensed the spiritual barrier, he knew that he had been discovered by Angel, and his spiritual power tentacles circled outside, so he took the initiative to retreat.

After Ingres confirmed that Roman's spiritual power tentacles had left, he was silent for a long time before talking to Helen about business.

Helen's heart was pounding, thinking that something indescribable would happen when Angels took her back to the room, but after waiting for a long time, the other party did nothing but continue the previous conversation.

Helen was confused, did I misunderstand?

While Ingres was talking to Helen, in a gorgeous house on the fourth floor, Roman's expression was somewhat gloomy.

The one he did...... After all, this is a routine thing, and neither Alwyn nor Helen will be suspicious.

But why did that Pat talk to Helen?

Roman pondered for a long time, and suddenly remembered that Helen's cheeks were pink and shy before entering Pat's room.

Roman suddenly came to his senses, and snorted coldly: "Sure enough, I have no knowledge, and I will be interested in a middle-aged fat woman." ”

After Roman finished speaking, he stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, opened the window, and a sea breeze blew in. Roman looked at the ocean in the distance, the corners of his mouth slightly hooked.

Behind him, on that table lay a stack of books. When the sea breeze blows in, the cover of the book blows open, and a portrait with a missing corner is blown away from the page, slowly scattering and opening.

Through the sunlight outside the window, you can clearly see that the portrait is a lonely sea, and under the ocean, the dark shadow.

......

In the room on the third floor, Roman slowly confided in some of his mental journeys and psychological changes during this time.

"You mean, since half a month ago, you have been in a state of panic?"

Helen nodded: "Yes, it wasn't too serious at first, but in the past few days, I feel as if there is a stone pressing on my heart every day when I go to bed, which is heavy, and even affects my normal life." ”

"Tell me what happened half a month ago, when you were worried about the situation?"

"It doesn't seem like anything happened during that time...... Helen slowly immersed herself in the memories of half a month ago.

As Helen recounted, Angels was also investigating possible suspicions little by little.

Suddenly, Angel stopped: "Wait, you said you went to ask Roman about his next route?"

Helen nodded: "The route of the Devil's Sea is changeable, and there is more than one route to reach the Ferran Continent, and almost every other distance, we will ask for the next route." ”

"But why do you want Roman to make a decision? Can't you make a choice yourself?" Ingres asked, frowning.

"Because Lord Roman has received more information than us, although there are many routes, there are often accidents on some routes, such as drastic changes in ocean currents, and for example, a certain route happens to be the only way for sea beasts, these news are difficult for us to know as mortals, only Lord Roman can collect these information. ”

Angels: "Every time you go to sea, Roman tells you the news?"

"Not exactly, sometimes the wizards in charge are different. However, as long as Lord Roman is in charge, he is basically asked, which is a routine matter. ”

Helen's expression slowly became strange when she said this: "It seems to be true, since I chose the next leg of the route that day, my mood has begun to change. Could it be that there is a problem with this route?"

Angel pondered for a moment, "There may be a problem with the route, but the people ...... More likely to have a problem. ”

"Your Excellency is saying...... ...... Roman" Helen shook her head violently, she didn't think that this matter would have anything to do with Roman, because Roman was also from the White Shell Shipping Company, although she sometimes felt that Roman was too arrogant in her heart, but the interests between them were the same, one was prosperous, and the other was lost.

"Your Excellency may have misunderstood, but the gap between you and Lord Roman was a week ago, when the route had been diverted. ”

"You mean, I said Roman had a problem because he didn't deal with him?" Ingres looked at Helen.

Helen hesitated for a moment, then boldly asked, "Isn't it?"

Angel shook his head: "Roman is narrow-minded, which really makes me very uncomfortable. But as long as he doesn't have a conflict with my interests and directly deals with me, I won't really care about him, because there are countless people like this in the wizarding world. ”

"The reason why I say Roman has a problem is because of another thing. ”

Roman secretly changed the bow of the ship's stone, and the matter was unmistakable. The answer to why he did this was basically not to run, and the value of the Nightmare Stone was enough to reach a staggering level. He could have sold the Nightmare Stone for personal resources, and maybe even promoted to the rank of official wizard.

But what makes Angel most puzzling is that he doesn't know the consequences when he does this?

The illusion that lingers on the bow of the ship will eventually disappear. It's no problem to hide from this group of mortals and some of the apprentices, but how can he explain to the people of Sky Machinery City?

With Roman's suspicious personality, he will definitely think of all the back roads.

At that time, Ingres vaguely felt in his heart that Roman must make some arrangements for the Yunluo, at least to hide the above means. Now comparing what Helen said, many things are basically solved.
