Chapter 46 Chapter 52 Grand Sacrifice
This is a notebook filled with words and pictures.
It's not hard to see the effort its owner put into it.
Uncle Chelle poked his cigarette into the ashtray and began to look through it intently, not stopping.
The more he looked, the more frightened he became.
"Uncle Chelle, do you know these words?"
Pomo went over, but he could only talk by looking at the pictures.
Chel nodded heavily. "The language used here is specifically for serving the God of the Sea, and is called 'The Language of the God of the Sea'. The good news is that I can understand it, but it will take some time to finish reading it. But I also have some bad news."
When he said this, his eyes were looking at Xu Kuieya.
The girl swallowed nervously, her uneasiness becoming more and more obvious.
"Go ahead, Uncle Chelle."
There is no way to escape it, Xu Kuieyanin knows the truth.
Chel sighed deeply and stated a fact that he was unwilling to believe.
"The person who owns this book is creating a different world on this sea."
"What!" Xu Kuia screamed, "Impossible! Father Asclepius would not do such a thing!"
Uncle Chelle didn't say anything, but his eyes were full of pity when he looked at Xu Kuiya.
Father Asclepius and Podali have always been doing something, and they came to Shouyu Island for the so-called "important things".
Xu Kuiaya simply couldn't believe that they didn't tell him because they were doing such a terrible thing.
"No! That's absolutely not the case!"
The priest adopted her and her brother and raised them. Her brother had been dependent on her since childhood. They were kind and gentle people whom she knew best. It was absolutely impossible for them to create an alien world.
Xu Kuiaya could not accept the bad news, she turned and ran out of the tavern, Puis patted Pomo, and the boy immediately chased after her.
"What do you think?" Puis asked Ni Lan.
Ni Lan shook her head, then nodded, "I believe in Xu Kuieya's judgment."
He could have just said, "I don't think the priest and Podali are spreading the alien world," but he had to beat around the bush and say that he believed in Xu Kuia's judgment.
Puisi couldn't help but think of the seal of the alien world placed in Lanster Church. He knew about it because of Pomo's [foreseeing]. So how did Ni Lan know it?
He knew more about certain things than anyone could imagine, but there was always a reason behind it.
Uncle Chel did not comment on what Ni Lan said. He continued to look at the notebook.
"It says that alien worlds usually appear naturally where corpses are piled up. This is why Saint Snow requires citizens to practice cremation. The sea is too vast. If you want to create an alien world on it, you need artificial sacrifices."
When he read the book, he actually felt very uncomfortable, a shudder from the soul, and Chel believed it was because such an evil plan was written in the language of Poseidon.
"For the alien world to spread or even erupt, conditions are also required, the most important of which is the existence of life that can be devoured, especially humans."
The alien world does not only devour human lives, but hundreds of billions of ants are no match for one human.
Only by continuously devouring lives can the alien world spread. The same is true on the sea. If there are not enough human lives to devour, even if the alien world appears, it will not have any impact on the land.
"Then there is the specific method of how to create a different world. I don't really want to read this. Maybe you should destroy this book later."
These were all "taboo" knowledge, and he didn't want to know them, whether intentionally or unintentionally. It would be terrible if he was deceived or coerced in the future.
"You don't have to take the how into account. Please continue to watch. We need to know what Father Asclepius wants to do."
Spreading the alien world across the ocean is definitely not the ultimate goal, regardless of whether Father Ascle is a Lightless One or not.
Chel nodded, turned a few pages, and continued reading.
His face changed immediately.
Just as Puis expected, the alien worlds that appeared in the sea around Shouyu Island in recent years were just tests.
"His goal is to sacrifice all the people on Shouyu Island to the other world!"
Such things made Chel feel terrified from the bottom of his heart, but also angry as a native of Shouyu Island.
"Damn it, how dare he!"
Ni Lan frowned slightly. He looked at the notebook and suddenly felt that he seemed to have done something bad with good intentions.
So he pointed to the back half of the notes which was still quite thick.
"There seems to be something else written on the back, Uncle Cher, can you take another look?"
Chel felt that there was no need to read on, but he still read on according to Ni Lan's wishes.
There are detailed steps ahead, which is a good thing for them.
"It says that the last sacrifice will be on Saturday this week, which is less than three days away."
"We will stop him, for sure." Puis took out his terminal and started making a call. "I will report it to the Supernatural Management Office first. They will send someone to deal with the supernatural world."
There is only a registration office of the Supernatural Management Office on Shouyu Island, and there is no Alien Processing Department. It takes at least three days to get here from the main island. Before that, they must stop Father Asclepius's sacrifice.
Chel closed the book and returned it to Ni Lan.
"The Alien World Processing Department doesn't take this seriously at all, and the alien world hasn't really exploded yet. I'm afraid..."
No matter how much the people on the main island look down on it, Shouyu Island is still their home.
Knowing the truth, he could of course take his family and flee first, but those who would be sacrificed would not only be his family, but also his friends, his customers, and his hometown.
If the Alien World Processing Department was truly responsible, they would not have allowed those alien worlds that have already caused casualties to remain unchecked until today.
Ni Lan held the notebook more tightly.
“It won’t happen.”
"What?"
"We will not allow the alien world to erupt and engulf Shouyu Island."
The young man's golden eyes were suddenly filled with determination, and he made a promise seriously, just like all the ones he had fulfilled in the past.
Uncle Chelle was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"You are all just children. I am sorry to have made you worried. Okay, I believe you!"
They are all students of Lanster School of Supernatural Powers and will grow up to be the most powerful supernatural beings in the future. When they were drinking last night, Captain Macka boasted to him about the strength of these three "little heroes".
"What are you laughing about so happily? Chel!"
“Gululu——!”
Captain McCarty finally sobered up from his drunken staircase and came down from upstairs. He had the best alcohol tolerance among his crew members and naturally sobered up the earliest. However, before he could finish his words, his stomach growled loudly.
"Look at your bottomless stomach. You're still hungry after drinking until midnight, right?" Uncle Chel had no intention, at least not yet, to tell him the conspiracy he just learned. He would just wait for the three of them to discuss it before making a conclusion.
Captain McCarty waved his hand. "Hey! You know what I'm talking about! Give me something to eat! Where's that freshly made cheese you said you had last night? Give me some to taste!"
"You bastard, aren't you drunk? Do you still remember what I said? I really made you think about it!"
Maca didn't care, he just kept thinking about it.
He also saw Ni Lan standing there, but he didn't notice the book in his hand.
"You woke up so early? Where are your two friends? Have you had breakfast? If not, come and have some with me!"
Ni Lan shook her head. "Es and Amo are both outside. I've already eaten. Thank you."
Captain McCain didn't care what they did. "Okay, we must take a good look around Shouyu Island today. It's really great here! I was thinking of settling here when I can't work anymore!"
Chel had already come over with bread, cheese and milk, and stuffed the cheese into Maka's mouth.
"Eat yours! That's all, there's no more!"
——
Xu Kuieya was just a little excited for a moment, and she didn't want to run around. She just wanted to escape from the tavern to calm herself down.
She was very touched when Pomo came to see her.
When the two came back, they saw Puis using the terminal to contact someone, but the call was soon disconnected, leaving Puis with a heavy and angry face.
"Is, what's wrong?"
"The Alien Processing Department said it would take at least half a year for this place to come. How could Shouyu Island wait that long?"
Puis was not only angry at the inaction of the Alien Processing Department, he was too aware of the twists and turns involved.
Pomo and Xu Kuiaya had not heard about the sacrifice three days later, and they looked at him in confusion.
"Waiting so long?"
"What took you so long?"
Pomo thought that Puis was still concerned about the alien world he encountered at sea the day before yesterday.
Puis cares about Xu Kuiaya, and he doesn't want to provoke her again about things related to Father Asclepius. He just plans to talk to Pomo when he has the chance later.
"The Alien World Processing Department said there are too many alien worlds in the ocean and they can't handle them all. We have to wait half a year."
He really loved the sea, but sometimes he had to admit that some things were done more efficiently and quickly on land.
The Pu family...the Pu family who is in charge of Shennan, his family, has not fulfilled its responsibilities at all.
"Maybe we can ask the Alien World Processing Department for the Sealing Fruit and seal it ourselves?" Pomo didn't think there was any trouble. The Alien World was very close to Shouyu Island, but it was not imminent. "Also, I believe in Xu Kuieya! Father Askler and her brother would not be the culprits in creating the Alien World!"
Puis's expression froze, and he looked at his friend with a little helplessness.
"Intuition?"
"Intuition!"
Okay, okay, friends are all intuitive, this is stable.
He put the terminal back into his pocket with an expressionless face.
"The Sealed Fruit is on the main island. It takes six days to go back and forth."
The Sealing Fruit is a tool for emergency treatment of alien worlds. It is made by people who possess the ability to seal alien worlds and can temporarily prevent the spread of alien worlds.
Of course, you can also have someone deliver it...but...
Puis's brows furrowed even more tightly.
He doesn't want to contact his family, but for Shouyu Island...
Finally, the boy sighed, and as if to compromise, he took out the terminal again.
