Bizarre Detective Agency

  Chapter 1437 Seventy-Nine. Ocean

  The waves are churning, layer upon layer.

  Lu Li sat on the boat, looking at the dark clouds in the distance.

  The unknown and vast deep sea is far more treacherous than the surface.

  Lu Li knows many secrets above the ground. The rebirth of the old, the decay of the old, the truth about the Lennon Islands, and the coming of the farmland.

  But regarding the deep sea, Lu Li knows almost nothing. Even the Land of Light only knows about the bay outside Rodster Harbor and the limited offshore sea along the coast of the Allen Peninsula.

   Withdrawing his gaze from the storm that was raging in the distant sea, Lu Li grabbed the oars and continued sailing along the horizon of the Ellen Peninsula, bypassing the dangerous storm.

  A snowfall not long ago made the distant land covered with gray, clearly demarcating the boundary with the sea. But as night approached, the sky gradually darkened, and the land and sea disappeared together in the gloom and mist.

   It is the rule of every sailor not to sail at night when it is difficult to distinguish the direction. Lu Li was not a sailor, but he was no exception. He put the oil lamp on the bow of the boat, put the oars back into the cabin, took out the canned food he brought with him when he went out to sea, and ate quietly with the sea surface, reflection and mist.

  The small wooden boat does not support the appearance of the merchant Anthony, nor does it support the lighting of the fire.

   After eating the cans, Lu Li threw the empty cans into the trash bin where there were many empty cans, picked up the oil lamp, and shuffled into the narrow cabin.

   Putting on the windbreaker, Lu Li curled up at the bottom of the cabin, guarding the oil lamp, and was also guarded by the oil lamp. Amidst the strange noises from the thick fog, he fell asleep in the gently shaking cabin.

  The next morning, Lu Li sat up in the shaking cabin.

  The surrounding sea was turbulent, not like the days before the voyage, filled with terrifying blood and broken limbs, or stranded on a "desert island" that shouldn't have a desert island.

  Lu Li opened the can in the morning mist, and waited for the mist to fade while eating breakfast.

  As the morning approached, the melting mist revealed the gray horizon in the distance. Lu Li also grabbed the oars and set sail again.

   As if following him like a shadow, Lu Li met the deserted island again. The avoidance didn't work this time, when Lu Li paddled his oars to gradually move away from it for a few nautical miles, the small wooden boat under him ran aground on the wet reef rising from the bottom of the sea, then trembled violently and continued to rise.

  A mountain of jagged rocks is rising from the bottom of the sea.

  If you don't leave sooner, Lu Li, who is at the same level as the sea, may be brought to the top by the rising strange mountain.

  Waving the oars and hitting the rocks, pushing the stranded wooden boat to slide down the slippery reef.

  Lu Li grasped the oars and the cabin tightly so that he would not be thrown out by the bumps.

  The sliding wooden boat rose faster than the strange mountain. After ten seconds, the wooden boat stopped bumping and crashed into the sea.

   But that's just the beginning. The sea area around the strange mountain boiled violently, and the terrifying vortex formed a chaotic vortex.

  Fortunately, like the blessing of the ocean, a strange ocean current appeared around the wooden boat, pushing Lu Li away from the rising island and back to the calm sea.

  Unfortunately, the small wooden boat was seriously damaged.

  However, for this voyage, Lu Li has made sufficient preparations.

  Take out a glass bottle containing the strangely secreted special gel from the luggage bag, and pour them into the holes where the seawater is being poured into while they are still fluid, and fill the other holes one after another, so that no more seawater is poured into the wooden boat.

  Lu Li absorbed the seawater in the cabin with a towel, stretched out the wooden boat and wrung it dry.

  The strange mountain is still rising, but Lu Li has already gone away under that wonderful ocean current.

   Until Lu Li cleaned up the accumulated water in the cabin and held the oars, the ocean current disappeared without a trace.

  The voyage resumed, and night fell without any surprises. Lu Li lit the oil lamp, put it on the bow of the boat, and continued to row the oars. Soon after, the small wooden boat got out of the fog and came to a sea area that the strange fog dared not set foot in.

   After an unknown amount of time passed, Lu Li smelled a strong, deep-sea mud-like smell. I heard the tidal splashing of wild beasts licking water by my ears.

  Lu Li sat up from the cabin, lifted the oil lamp and lifted it out of the boat.

  The crescent-shaped boat shadow was reflected on the tranquil lake-like surface. In the dark depths of the sea, Lu Li saw the strange and distorted grotesque figure swimming "elegantly".

  Even though Lu Li had lost the dreamer, the aura that was too entangled with the dream and the ocean still made them close.

   Lu Li saw his former friend among the figures of Sou You, so he should go up to greet him.

  He stretched out his palm to the mirror-like water. Katerina was pushed out by her clan, a smile appeared on her fish-like frog face, her film-covered palm came out of the sea, wet and cold touched Lu Li's wrist, and dragged him into the sea.

   A momentary panic welled up in his heart, and then a layer of gills grew on both sides of his neck against the wriggling, allowing him to breathe. The membrane connects the palm and the sole of the foot, grows flat and slender, squeezes out the shoes, and becomes more suitable for swimming.

  Lu Li and these distorted but friendly deep divers ride the ocean currents, wandering in the vast and vast ocean. Chasing schools of fish of all kinds. Participated in their group hunting, and Katerina brought a string of strange fish necklaces. Wandering under the deep sea is dotted with luminous pearls and fluorescent seaweed, like an underwater city made of stone mounds. And Catalina is looking for the treasure left by the ancient deep divers in the hidden place. Read the ancient history of the deep diver race that has been recorded for hundreds of millions of years. Hold a great sacrifice with the deep divers in the central square.

  Lu Li spent a pleasant night in this submarine basin. When morning came, exhausted yet contented, Lu Li bid farewell to his friends and floated towards the hazy sea.

  His flippers decomposed into soles, the mucous membrane that adhered to the knuckles faded away, and the disappeared gills revealed smooth skin.

  Clah—

  Lu Li surfaced on the surface of the sea, and climbed into the cabin with the swaying wooden boat.

  Cold and voice poured into the heavy shell.

  Looking at the eastern sky, Lu Li saw that morning had already arrived.

  Opening the luggage bag in the cabin, Lu Li took off his wet clothes, dried his black hair and body, and changed back to dry clothes on the swaying boat.

  The oil lamp in the cabin had already been extinguished, Lu Li used a towel to dry the seawater that fell on the bottom of the cabin and the oil lamp when he climbed up, grabbed the oars, and prepared to continue to set off.

  Clah—

  A pair of slippery palms covered with fine scales pushed the stern, pushing the wooden boat towards the mist on the sea.

   Katerina and the people following behind sent Lu Li on the last journey until the small wooden boat left the origin of the deep diver group.

  Lu Li raised his oars and bid farewell to Katerina and her people who surfaced.

   Their figures gradually disappeared under the undulating waves. Lu Li looked up at the sky, as if seeing the golden light breaking through the dark clouds above the Land of Light.

  Boom—

  The small wooden boat bumped into the door frame standing on the sea, shaking and tending to stop.

  Lu Li sat back in the cabin, leaned against the door frame with his oars, pushed the small wooden boat away from the mottled wooden door on the sea, and continued sailing on the sea as if floating.
