White Oak is back - after a long period of contact interruption and route shift, the advanced steamship, under the name of the Explorer Association, finally returned to the Plander City State.

Many people were waiting for the ship to return, and countless pairs of eyes were watching the silhouette gradually approaching the sea.

When the judge Vanna saw that as the White Oak whistle sounded, the personnel on the dock immediately took action:

The staff who guided the ship to the dock had arrived and began to signal the White Oak with lights and flags. The guards of the church went to activate the deep-sea relics that were placed in Pier 1 last night:

It is a "boundary marker" cast in large quantities in bronze. Its base is engraved with the name of the storm goddess Gemona, and the grooves on the top are filled with sacred oils and spices. When these boundary markers are activated, the White Oak is on the shore.

The area will be blocked and become a "sacred land" that is watched by the goddess.

Further afield are the sheriffs sent by the city hall. These ordinary people are not good at dealing with extraordinary things, so their main job is to block all intersections with heavy firepower - ordinary guns and cannons are difficult to deal with strange and invisible curse.

, but if the tangible polluters run out of the White Oak, then the eight-mm bullet and four-pound gun will play a big role.

Sometimes Fanna can't help but thank the progress of technology. These engineering crystallizations have given weak and powerless ordinary people a certain amount of strength to intervene in such extraordinary events, although the results brought by technological progress are good.

Bad, but at least…the support of turn-on machine guns and artillery has indeed greatly reduced the casualties of fellow church fellows over the years.

Vanna's eyes crossed the pier and looked at the sea in the distance.

The White Oak made a second whistle sound. Guided by the light signals on the shore, the ship began to slow down slowly and stopped a little further from the dock.

A priest standing next to Vanna breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this and whispered: "The White Oak has executed the order. It seems that at least the ship is still under control."

"It is not to be said for the time being that many people affected by abnormalities or visions will appear to be the same as ordinary people until they have mutations," Vanna shook her head, "Send a second set of signals, send out a inspection boat, and let the shore defense guns be done at any time.

Prepare to open fire if there is any abnormal movement on the ship.”

The order from the judge was soon conveyed, because the communication device of the White Oak was damaged, and the people on the shore could only communicate with the ship with lights and flags. After a complex set of lights and flags, the White Oak's

Three lights lit up at the bow of the ship, and then the rope ladder on its side was laid down.

A speedboat was released from the dock and driven by a small steam machine, it rushed towards the White Oak.

On the speedboat was a whole guardian team, including eight combatants, a commander and a deep-sea priest, who lit incense on the boat and recited the Goddess of the Storm

Holy Name, after they approached the White Oak, they did not board the ship immediately, but first circled the big ship and sprinkled holy oil mixed with seaweed extracts in the nearby seawater.

After these oils fell into the sea water, they immediately emitted a slight glow, and gradually connected into one piece, eventually forming a circle that completely enclosed the White Oak.

After all this, the priests on the speedboat really approached the White Oak and boarded the boat along the rope ladder.

All of this fell in the eyes of Vanna on the lookout.

It is extremely dangerous to get a ship that was once lost at sea to "return home", especially an ocean-going ship that was once responsible for transporting abnormal objects - the White Oak cannot dock directly, it first needs to be at a safe distance.

The boarding inspection of the speedboat outside was to be approached by the Pierre after preliminary confirmation that there was no sign of evil god corruption on the ship. However, after that, the personnel on the ship were still unable to disembark. They also needed to undergo a second round of inspection by the clergy.

The entire ship must also undergo a more stringent comprehensive search and purification. After that, all the personnel on the ship must be observed at least several days and weeks in the church at the dock, and the entire ship must be incense.

Purify for at least one week.

Only when all these processes are completed and the entire process is not surprising will the civilized world dare to re-accept these people who have trekked at sea and go home - and if there is any problem in any link, the White Oak and its crew will have to be buried.

The sea.

The Goddess of the Storm will accept the souls of these poor people.

This cruel and even cruel rule is not caused by anyone's malice, but the "way to survive" explored by human society to this day.

Of course, there are also city-states that are unwilling or failing to implement these strict rules. Most of these city-states are now concentrated in the first two units of the second volume of the middle school history course, which are required for final exams.

Time passed by minute by minute, and everyone was waiting for the guardian team to board the ship to check and send a signal back, and there were only two possible signals - if everything was safe, the team would use special psychic communication to send it back.

On the shore, if the ship has been contaminated, the team will fight to the last person and try to detonate nitroglycerin on the boat before all of them are killed.

If ocean ships of the size of white oak are really polluted by subspace or something deeply, then it is impossible for a few people who board the ship to inspect and come back alive.

Fanna hugged her chest with her hands and gently tapped the metal on her arm armor.

A bell suddenly came from the small chapel on the dock, and three long sounds sounded by the steam pressure relief pipes on both sides of the bell tower.

The priests in the church received Mixun from the inspection team, and the bells and whistles of the church were all the groups on the announcement dock:

The ship is safe, and the White Oak applies for docking, and there are reports on special circumstances.

Vanna immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

At least it seems that everything is normal for the ship, which is the biggest good news.

As for the special circumstances report... she was not surprised.

It would be strange if a bizarre trek ship re-entered the port, and there was no special situation to report.

The White Oak slowly landed. The ocean-going ship, which had experienced many twists and turns, finally returned to the dock of the civilized world. Although the personnel on the ship had not been approved to land, they would probably be able to relax a lot.

More church guards began to board the ship in an orderly manner, preparing for a thorough inspection and inquiries. Vanna also left the lookout and personally led a team of pastors to the dock. She walked through the long springboard and finally stepped onto the

On the deck of the White Oak, I saw the gray-haired and burly captain on the front deck.

The old captain looked a little haggard, obviously he had worked in a highly nervous state for too long, but after seeing the church judge approaching, the old man immediately cheered up and took the initiative to come to Vanna.

"Hello, I am Vanna, the judge of the Deep Sea Church of Plander City, Captain Lawrence," Vanna did not like redundant etiquette, so she chose to say hello directly, "Let's not introduce yourself--first to you

Sorry, I hope you and your crew can understand the strict inspections of the city-state authorities and the church.”

"Of course, Your Excellency Judge," Lawrence nodded immediately. He wanted to say "Miss Judge". After all, the other party seemed almost the same age as his daughter, but at the beginning of the conversation, it was changed to a more respectful title,"

I had expected it, after all...we have lost contact for so long."

Fanna nodded: "Simply talk about what happened to the White Oak, why did you lose contact? Why did you suddenly appear on unreported routes? What is the abnormal 099 situation of the goods you escorted?"

As soon as these words came out, the expression on Lawrence's face was suddenly filled with frustration and nervousness. He sighed, and first subconsciously looked around quickly before slowly speaking: "I say it, you may not believe it, we... have met that

The legendary Lost Country…”

In front of him, the inquisitor lady with a serious expression suddenly stood there like a petrified person, with a strange expression frozen on her face.

He couldn't tell what this expression meant, but it looked the same as after he was hit by the Lost Country Cast a few days ago.

"Judge... Your Excellency?" Lawrence asked cautiously, "You..."

"Captain Lawrence," Vanna seemed to suddenly wake up and stared at the captain in front of her, "You say it again?"

"You may not believe me if I say it..."

"I'll say the second half."

"We met the legendary Lost Country..."

"I believe it."

Lawrence was stunned: "Then..."

"You may need to stay on the dock for a few more days, Captain," Vanna said with a serious face, "This is very serious, very serious, you... wait, you have encountered the Lost Country, but all the staff

Survive?”

The expression on the face of the judge suddenly changed slightly, and there was a hint of doubt in his eyes. Seeing this, Lawrence hurriedly opened his hand: "We are fine, but the Lost Country took away the abnormal 099, which is the doll coffin. I suspect that

The ghost ship came for the doll coffin.”

"The Lost Country took away the abnormal 099?" Fana frowned and then asked again, "What after that? Will it let you go?"

"Yes...yes," Lawrence became nervous, and vaguely realized something, "Judge, have you been in the city recently..."

"...It's okay to tell you, after all, it seems that your 'contact' may be more serious than us," Vanna sighed and looked at the old captain in front of her, "Captain Lawrence, you may not be the only one who lost your hometown recently.
