The girl with white hair and red eyes is serious about revenge

Perlis looked at Su Yao seriously. She saw the light flickering in her eyes and was a little hesitant.

But soon, Su Yao smiled happily:

"Thank you Miss Pearlis for comforting me."

"No...no...Aren't you talking about the author writing a story..." Perlis's eyes dodged for a moment, "Just...just to say..."

Oops, I'm so dumb. I said before I came here that I wouldn't poke Su Yao's sad things, how come I let it slip again... Obviously Carly maintained it very well...

Perlis glanced at Su Yao guiltily, and suddenly found that she was staring blankly at the TV screen.

She also turned her head and found that the cartoon on TV had just reached the climax of the fifth episode -

——The lamb passed through a jungle full of thorns and climbed a hill with the help of his companions.

From the top of the hill, she could see the vast grassland and the rising sun from the horizon.

This is just a small hillside. To reach the grassland, there are countless gullies to cross.

However, the lamb's eyes were already filled with excitement.

"I will come back, for sure!"

The lamb said this, looking towards the camera with a bright smile.

"..."

The fifth episode of the cartoon ended here. Su Yao lowered her head, and Perlis saw that she was smiling happily.

That smile was embellished with tears, but it did not appear sad, but instead added a touch of brilliance.

"Actually, I've figured it out."

Su Yao pushed her wheelchair and motioned for Pearlis and Carly to follow her.

The three of them came to the balcony of the house together, from where they could directly overlook the entire courtyard, whether it was the dense bamboo forest or the lingering clouds.

On the platform, Perlis saw an easel with a bunch of bamboo sketched on it in pencil. The lines looked a little stiff, but the overall shape was very accurate.

"I may not join the army in the future." Su Yao said.

Hearing this, Perlis and Carly looked at her in surprise, but Su Yao was calm.

“I think it’s also important to pick up my mother’s paintbrush and record something for our world.”

"Look, the dead zone has become like that. Who still remembers what it used to be like? The land destroyed by the black tide can never be restored. Bamboo will wither, flowers will die, people will die, and the sun may go out one day..."

Su Yao said as she picked up a pencil and measured the proportions of the bamboo in the garden in front of her eyes.

"But the paintings can stay forever."

"My mother's wish is to paint the whole of Qilang into the painting and protect this beauty in her own way."

"I thought about it and thought...I can do that, right?"

After that, Su Yao finished the measurement and quickly drew a few bamboo leaves on the paper.

The bamboo leaves are so lifelike in both movement and shape, just like the real thing.

Su Yao, always accurate.

"..."

Perlis stared blankly at the bamboo on the drawing paper. At this time, Su Yao spoke softly again:

"It's very dangerous outside the Great Wall, Miss Perlis. I leave my hometown to you."

Perlis lowered her head and looked at Su Yao, and was surprised to find that her eyes were shining again.

The light was bright and sharp, just like the sun when I first saw it.

Facing the two suns, Perlis clenched her fists and nodded slightly.

"I see."

......

12) He is coming (Part 3)

"Blue Reef" - East Ocean

Some time had passed since all of Dila's warships had left for the ocean expedition.

In fact, even Dila's fleet itself did not know why they had to come to the open ocean. There were no strange treasures in the sea area pointed out by [Canghuang], and the "exploration mission" announced to the outside world was naturally not true. Internally, that existence did not explain their real goal in detail.

There is only one order: Be ready.

So, Gleason has been watching the sea here for several days.

From time to time, he came to the deck and looked out from the bow at the storm covering the ocean, with countless branch-like lightning dancing in it like the pulse of a giant.

The "Blue Reef" is the ship closest to the Storm Sea. In terms of distance, they are closest to the other side.

Looking at the storm, Grissom's eyes often became moist.

"..."

That day, Gleason came to the deck early in the morning and stared at the storm in a daze.

The storm was like a thick fog, rising from the sea horizon and spreading all the way to the sky, forming a rolling gray wall.

Just as Grissom was staring at the storm in fascination again, footsteps were heard behind him.

Gleason didn't turn around. He immediately recognized who was walking on those light footsteps, and muttered to himself:

"The captain's dream is to conquer that storm."

As she spoke, Mei slowly stopped beside Grissom and looked out with him.

The girl gently pulled Grissom's sleeve and whispered:

"He set out on a journey far greater than conquering the storm."

After that, the two of them stood together at the bow in silence, gazing into the distance amid the waves and the sound of the wind.

Before I knew it, Furukawa Ferry had been gone for a long time.

The two vaguely remembered that the old captain was like this too, liking to stand alone at the bow and look out at the eastern sea.

For a sailor, nothing is more tempting than conquering a storm.

As for Captain Furukawa To, he wanted to sail through the storm that changed his old friend, but he ended up seeing the true face of the world.

"Maybe we'll have a chance in the future," Grissom murmured.

Hearing him say this, Mei blinked in surprise and said:

"That's what I came to inform you of."

"His Majesty [Cang Huang] received news from our allies that we need to transport an item related to the Netherworld for them."

"Allied?" Grissom turned his head. "My sister?"

"I guess so. They said they would come to help us transport the goods," Mei's eyes were a little evasive, "Well...but they didn't say how to do it."

"What could they be transporting..." Grissom muttered, "Theoretically, the Blue Reef should be able to cross the Storm Sea, but the risks of doing so are unknown. If we act rashly..."

At this point, Grissom's words were interrupted by a disturbance.

The two of them turned their heads at the same time and looked at the deck beside them—a red crack appeared and two figures jumped out from it.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Perlis gently lifted her long hair which had become a little messy during the journey to the upper realm, and stood steadily on the deck.

Beside her, Carly was smiling at her long-lost brother.

"Surprise?"

......

Twenty minutes later, in the dining room of the Blue Reef, the four of them had a simple meal.

Although it was a simple meal, the table was filled with seafood, which made Pearlis and Carly a little flattered.

"Why make it so grand..." Carly glanced at her brother in reproach, "I roughly estimated that the cost of these restaurants in the Federation would be in the five figures, right?"

"That's why you're out of touch, sister," Grissom smiled as he cut a piece of white meat for Carly. "These things are only valuable in restaurants in the Federation. They're basically sold in bags in the Dila Islands and along the coast of Akihara. Not to mention that we're in the East Ocean, where you can basically eat as much as you want. Miss Perlis should know this very well."

"Well, I ate a lot at that time." Perlis was quite experienced.

"Really?" Carly looked at the large piece of "Dark Tide Hammer Monster" meat in front of her thoughtfully. "It's not bad."

As she spoke, she raised her head and her eyes became stern:

"How are you two getting along? Grissom, are you bullying Mei-chan?"

"Ah...ah...that..." Gleason stuttered for a moment, "I'm just not very experienced yet. If I try a few more times..."

"what are you saying?"

"No...it's okay..."

"Mei-chan, did Grissom do anything bad?" Carly turned her head and looked at Mei who had been silent.

When Mei heard Carly asking her a question, she seemed to wake up from a dream and quickly waved her hands:

"I! I didn't do anything bad!"

"I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about Gleason." Carly held her forehead and sighed.

"Oh... yeah," Mei cleared her throat and nodded, "No bullying."

"Why nod if you're not bullied?" Perlis on the side whispered.

"Forget it, forget it. I don't have much experience either. Just get along with each other."

Carly looked at her young brother. Even though he had become a captain, he still looked like a teenager and had not made any progress at all.

But Carly also knew that it was wrong to judge Grissom based solely on his appearance. According to the information she knew, Grissom was one of the best captains in the Dila fleet.

In some previous operations to encircle and suppress the remnants of the Bridge and Chord, he demonstrated strong command and decision-making capabilities. The "Blue Reef" became the only ship with zero casualties in that operation.

His future is bright, Carly thought with relief.

"..."

Seeing the silence, Perlis cleared her throat and said to Grissom:

"We need you to cross the Storm Sea and help us move a netherworld object."

"Something like the [Black Emblem]?" Gleeson looked more serious.

"No, but let's get closer. It can't be transported using ordinary means," Perlis said, "so we need the Blue Reef. It's urgent. It would be best if we could set off soon."

"This is really a coincidence. If we weren't here, we might not have made it in time."

Gleason said, his pupils shrank, and he suddenly realized something -

——They have been on standby here for a long time.

Moreover, the "Blue Reef" was placed closest to the Storm Sea from the very beginning.

Could it be that... [Cang Huang] already knew about this matter a long time ago, so he made special arrangements?

"..."

Carly seemed to have thought of the same thing. She looked at her brother and said:

"Now that everything is ready, let's get ready to go."

"Of course," Grissom nodded nervously, "Before I leave, I need to send a request to His Majesty the [Canghuang], and I should get a reply soon."

"No need," Mei shook her head. "The secret letter from His Majesty the Emperor this morning included permission for the transport operation, and required us to provide our full assistance."

As expected... everything has been arranged...

[Cang Huang] has been manipulating in secret.

......

12) He is coming (Part 4)

Before the Blue Reef officially sets sail, the crew needs to conduct a series of routine inspections, so it will take about fifteen minutes.
