Chapter 26 Starless Night

To be honest, Duncan suddenly found that when the dove on his shoulder spoke, even if he had a nerve thicker than a pillar, it would be difficult for him to take calm steps.

At this moment, he hoped that he could hit a parrot on his shoulder like a normal pirate captain - what if he didn't hit a monkey?

But he had already pushed open the door to the chart room, and it was impossible to turn back at this time.

In the room of Chen Fang's navigation table, the goat head was happily talking about the twelfth legend about sea fish stew. The sound of the captain's dormitory opening finally interrupted the noisy guy. His black and clean wooden head immediately turned toward Duncan, and his tone looked very pleasant: "Ah, Captain! You are finally out-I want to tell you that Miss Alice is such an excellent conversation partner. I have not chatted with people so happily for many years, you know..."

Duncan directly ignored the loud pussy of the goat head, but looked at the victim opposite the navigation table at the first time, and then saw the headless doll sitting upright on the chair, holding his head in his hand, and pressing his ear tightly.

Even so, Alice's eyes were still dissipated as if she had participated in twelve high school mathematics classes, and even Duncan did not react at all when he walked in front of her.

Duncan: "…"

"She pulled her head off herself," Goat Head explained without waiting for Duncan to speak, "Although I don't know why she did..."

How powerful is the goat head's slogan? He can force a cursed doll to pull out his head to fight the sound waves?!

While Duncan was shocked, the goat head who said he was very excited finally noticed a strange guy brought out by the captain. His wooden head turned slightly, and his dark eyes suddenly stared at the dove on Duncan's shoulder: "Well? Captain, this is on your shoulder..."

"It's called Ai, and now it's my pet." Duncan said concisely, using as few sentences as possible to avoid possible loopholes, and also observing how the goat head reacts after hearing this.

"Your pet?" The goat head was obviously stunned for a moment, and then it seemed as if he had made up for something on his own. "Ah, the Lost Country did sense that you had temporarily left the ship... Have you gone to the spiritual world to walk? This is the spoil you brought back during the spiritual world"

Walking in the spiritual world?

A word that he had never heard suddenly popped up. Duncan thought of the brass compass placed in the captain's dormitory, the handwriting left by the real Captain Duncan, and the wonderful experience of the soul projecting into the distance. He faintly corresponded it in his heart, feeling that he guessed it almost nodded indifferently: "It's just a little relaxing."

After Duncan finished speaking, the goat head immediately complimented: "Ah! It's really worthy of being the great Captain Duncan. Even a simple spiritual walk can bring back the trophy - is this a pigeon? Is it extraordinary to be your pet? You even hung your compass on it? Is this... Oh, of course, your judgment is always correct, but what is special about this pigeon? Is it..."

Duncan heard something tactful from the compliment of the goat head, and he felt that the goat head obviously knew the brass compass that was now hanging on Ay's chest, and that this compass was obviously very important to the real Captain Duncan - so important that it should not be casually placed on a new "pet".

But even if he noticed something inappropriate, he had no choice, because the compass was "tied" with the pigeon now, and even... According to the control feedback of the spirit fire, the pigeon seemed to be the body of the compass at this moment!

Duncan thought quickly, but his face still maintained a volatility. With such a stunned moment, Ay, who was originally squatting on his shoulder, suddenly made a loud cooing sound, and then he flapped his wings and flew to the goat's head.

The goat's head's dark eyes instantly stared at the dove, and the latter tilted his head seriously and pecked the goat's head's face with his mouth: "Can you charge q coins?"

Duncan: "…"

"Exception of intelligence?!" The goat head was obviously stunned, but then he reacted, and his tone was extremely surprised, "This pigeon can actually speak?!"

Duncan immediately reminded him tactfully: "You can speak too."

Pigeon Ai also walked two steps on the table, and while walking away, he muttered to himself: "Is it easy to behave like? Is it easy to behave like..."

Seeing this, Duncan rubbed his fingertips, and the green flames suddenly jumped. The dove pacing on the table disappeared into the air in the blink of an eye and returned to his shoulders the next moment.

"Yes, an abnormality with intelligence, and I'm directly controlling it," Duncan nodded to the goat head, "Is there any problem?"

Goathead hurriedly replied: "Ah...of course not, of course not, so there is no problem at all - everything is under the control of the great Captain Duncan."

Duncan stopped paying attention to the goat head. After quickly ending the topic, he focused on Alice, who was still holding his head in a daze. Perhaps the previous open-minded experience further enhanced his nerve strength, or perhaps he was used to watching it after watching it a few times. At this time, he didn't feel too weird when he looked at Alice's head in a daze. Instead, he felt that this guy was a little... cute.

He reached out and patted the doll lady on the shoulder: "Wake up, wake up."

Alice's body suddenly shuddered, as if she woke up from a long nightmare, and then the head held in her hand opened and closed her mouth and made a sound: "Boat...Boat...Boat..."

Duncan: "You connect the head first."

Alice reacted and quickly put her head back in place in a hurry. After a clicking sound, her voice finally returned to smoothness: "Ah, Captain, are you back? It seems like it happened just now... Mr. Goat Head finished speaking?"

The goat head on the table immediately spoke: "No, we just talked about some legends about sea fish stew, this topic can be... next time..."

Duncan said concisely: "Shut up."

"oh."

Alice, who was beside her, shook very clearly the moment the goat head opened, and a terrifying expression appeared on her face. Even if the goat head was honestly closed at the captain's order, she still looked at the direction of the navigation table with lingering fear.

Duncan suspects that this doll lady will not step into the captain's room for a long time to come.

Thinking of this, he finally asked curiously: "What's the matter if you come to me?"

"I..." Alice's expression was a little dull, as if her initial visit to the captain's room had forgotten everything with a conversation with the goat head, but after a few seconds she still reacted, "Ah, by the way, I just wanted to ask, is there any place on the boat to take a bath? My wooden box had entered the sea water before, and now I feel a little...uncomfortable."

At the end of the day, the expression on the doll's face was obviously a bit awkward, but in fact, the one who was more embarrassed than her should be Duncan - after all, her box was thrown off the boat by Duncan before.

And it was thrown away several times.

Awkwardness flashed in his heart, Duncan tried hard to keep his expression unchanged, and his tone was plain: "Just for this?"

Alice sat in the chair with restraint: "Just... for this."

"For many ocean-going sea boats, freshwater is an extremely valuable resource. Bathing is a luxury and restraint," Duncan said seriously at first, but then he suddenly smiled. "But you are very lucky that the Lost Country is not an ordinary boat, and freshwater is not a problem here. Come with me, there is a bath in the cabin below the middle deck. To go there, you have to pass through the upper deck first."

Alice immediately stood up - she really didn't want to stay in this place where the goat's head was placed.

Duncan looked back at the goat's head before leaving the room: "You keep taking the helm."

After the explanation, he got up and pushed open the door of the captain's room and brought Alice to the deck.

The night has fallen.

The night sky over the vast sea is clear.

This is the first time Duncan stood under the clear night sky of this world after many consecutive days of clouds.

He suddenly stopped, looked up at the sky, staring at the night sky without moving.

The night sky is dark without stars, and there are no celestial bodies.

The only thing you can see is a gray-white "crack" that seemed to tear through the entire sky. The crack lies across the sky, and its edges extend out fine cracks like flesh and blood. The dim gray halo slowly evacuated from the cracks, like blood marks spreading in a pool of deep water.

This "pale scar" that stretches across the sky illuminates the entire vast sea, more than twice as bright as the moonlight in Duncan's memory.
