Ark Undead

Although this task sounds a bit far-fetched, it's the only option we have right now.

"so..."

The greyhound approached the black passageway next to it and poked its head out.

It was so dark inside that I couldn't see where it led down at all.

"Which level does this hole lead to? We... Ahhhh!!"

Before he could finish speaking, the greyhound near the cave entrance was kicked into the cave by a foot from behind.

The greyhound's terrified screams echoed from the passageway, gradually fading until they finally disappeared completely.

W stared wide-eyed and took a step back, watching Patch warily.

"..."

The Undead didn't know what to say, so he could only look at Patch with a calm gaze.

"Haha...sorry, sorry, I can't help it, I'm used to it."

Patch shrugged, but the smile on his face showed no sign of apology.

"So, next?"

As he spoke, Patch took a step to the side and pointed to the cave entrance with both hands.

The immortal looked at W.

W had no choice but to bite the bullet and head towards the cave entrance, keeping a wary eye on Patch as he went.

Then the Sarkaz girl gritted her teeth and jumped into the cave.

Now only the undead remain.

Under the watchful eyes of the Undead, Patch put his hands behind his back, looked away, and even started whistling an unknown tune.

The undead man approached the cave entrance, but stopped before he could jump down.

"When it's all over, I'd like to talk to you."

"Let's talk?"

Patch paused for a moment, then responded.

"Of course, I also have a lot to talk to you about."

Their conversation gradually took on a weathered quality.

To be precise, they haven't communicated at all for an entire generation.

When old friends meet again, there are always some special emotions involved.

But now is not the time for reminiscing.

"gone."

With that, the immortal jumped into the hole in front of him.

The giant ship Arke, the tenth floor.

Melantha, Kroos, and Skadi followed the phantoms of the Doctor and the woman all the way to the deepest part.

They witnessed the two talking and exchanging ideas along the way.

For Melantha and Kroos, it was like a little theater where they listened to stories, which was very interesting.

Melantha might not understand most of it, but because she had studied on Rhodes Island, she was able to roughly grasp some of the important words.

Kroos didn't understand at all; she simply treated it as a movie.

However, only Skadi truly understood the importance of these images.

"Doctor, do you know where we are?"

Skadi said seriously.

"The doctor brought that lady to this ship; it wasn't just a dream."

Because this had gone beyond the realm of dreams, after they entered those rooms, there were no more images, but everything in the rooms was very orderly, as if they were still in their prime.

However, many things were destroyed during their conversation.

Theresa visited this ship in the space between the real world and dreams, so the Doctor who brought her here must know exactly where the ship is.

What ship?

Kroos was still a little confused. She looked at Melantha with a puzzled expression, then glanced at Skadi.

Melantha, however, realized what was happening.

"You mean this giant ship you're looking for?"

"I originally thought this was some kind of laboratory, but now it seems that this is the giant ship itself."

Even Skadi's words betrayed an uncontainable joy.

"It is quite reasonable that the Arke, a ship that brings together all the technology and elites, has a whole corridor of laboratories, or rather, a technological research layer."

Now that we know this is the ship that built Agor, we can find the location of Ark by finding the file containing the coordinates.

As she was thinking this, the three of them reached the end of the corridor.

This is the place that Theresa in the video refers to as the end of the corridor.

But unlike Theresa's reaction in the video, this so-called end turned out to be a wall made of yellow mist.

The three of them even faintly felt a suction force, an attraction emanating from the yellow mist.

Skadi wanted to say something, but just as she was about to open her mouth, the suction gradually increased, drawing Skadi's body towards the fog door.

At that moment, Skadi's expression changed drastically.

"run!"

As she spoke, Skadi raised the greatsword in her right hand, instinctively intending to place it against her own neck.

But at that moment, several tentacles covered with suckers suddenly pierced out from the yellow fog gate, tightly wrapping around Skadi's greatsword and preventing her from committing suicide.

But just as these tentacles emerged, a crisp sound of a sword being drawn filled the ears of the three.

With a faint, fiery red glow, the sharp straight blade severed the tentacles wrapped around the Skadi sword in the blink of an eye.

The purple kitten grabbed Skadi's body and jumped back several meters with her.

"you?!"

Skadi stared at Melantha in shock, wondering why Melantha seemed completely unaffected.

Melantha was still warily watching the yellow fog gate, unaware of Skadi's gaze.

Skadi caught a glimpse of a fiery phantom on Melantha's body, and this phantom was particularly noticeable on the straight sword in her hand.

"It's so heavy... No, it's going to slip out of my hands at this rate!"

Melantha gritted her teeth and pulled Skadi along. Skadi's body seemed to be falling into the fog gate, and the enormous suction made it impossible for Melantha to hold on to Skadi.

"Don't worry about me. Once I'm gone, you all run away immediately!"

With one hand held by Melantha, Skadi's body was completely lifted into the air, her legs pointing towards the yellow fog gate.

Her other hand gripped the greatsword and held it against her neck.

"Under no circumstances should we enter this fog gate! Find the others and work with them to figure out a solution!"

After saying that, Skadi decisively slashed her greatsword down her neck.

Melantha's eyes twitched; she could hardly accept the image she had imagined.

No blood spurted out; Skadi's body gradually blurred like mist. Then, she vanished into thin air in Melantha's hand.

Kroos quickly grabbed Melanie and pulled her back several meters.

"this?!"

Melanie looked at her left hand with a mixture of surprise and uncertainty.

"Skadi, you won't die, it's a dream!"

Kroos gave a brief explanation, then asked.

"Melantha! What do we do?!"

With Melantha around, Kroos gave up the opportunity to think for himself.

Just a second later, Melanie knew what she should do next.

"Didn't you say that Dr. Kal'tsit and Mr. Scout are here? Let's go find them. It would be even better if we could find our teacher!"

The two immediately retreated, quickly moving away from the dark yellow fog gate.

Skadi had many things she hadn't had time to tell them before leaving the dream world, and now approaching the Fog Gate rashly would be the most dangerous choice.

Iberian border camp.

Skadi suddenly opened her eyes, sat up abruptly in bed, and instinctively reached for the hilt of her greatsword with her right hand.

Several seconds later, she realized that she had successfully escaped from the dream.

Looking back now, it was quite a close call.

That door, with its unique suction, was undoubtedly one of the dangers rumored by the Deep Sea Hunters, capable of causing anyone to lose their mind.

If you encounter this situation, it means you have encountered an insurmountable danger in your dream, and the best course of action is to quickly leave the dream.

If it weren't for Melantha, Skadi would probably have remained forever in the dream world.

Only when she realized she had returned to reality did Skadi slowly release her hand from the hilt of her sword.

But just as she released the sword hilt, a deep voice sounded from beside Skadi.

"Your alertness has declined somewhat."

When the first syllable appeared, Skadi had already gripped her greatsword once again.

She swung her greatsword with the sound of her voice, causing it to collide with another weapon.

“But I’m glad to see you sober now, Skadi.”
