Chapter 133 Sea Monster
A gathering between colleagues from the Bureau of the Dissertation Bureau, Donald thought it should be an intelligence exchange meeting and team exchanges between investigators.
Although he was not going to team up with anyone, it didn't prevent him from sitting down and listening to some information.
However, after less than 10 minutes of sitting down, Donald regretted it. He suddenly realized that no matter where the stranger exchange meeting was, it was probably divided into several stages.
At the beginning, no one knew each other, and they were happy when introducing each other. Hello, I, Hello, everyone.
Then I found a topic, such as the Immortal Island they are about to go to now. At first, they were talking about the things they should pay attention to, but as they were talking, there would always be a few people starting to get involved in themselves.
For example, when talking about a kind of strange beast, someone brings the topic to themselves, takes out one or two pieces of equipment to display, and then someone will show it to praise it for the sake of praise.
Talk about the price of equipment, difficulty in making it, and how difficult it is to get it.
The people next to them were embarrassed to pretend that they didn't hear it, so they had to agree with each other, which was to give face to each other.
Then there are mutual praises, such as how powerful a person has completed a task some time ago, the person who is being praised is to be humble and then bring the topic back to the person just now.
In the words of Donald's previous life, this is called commercial mutual blowing.
This kind of flattery naturally has its purpose, in order to show its superiority in front of others, and thus make some people with a straight brain circuit and a 200-meter track take the initiative to stick it on, and do some "work" that Donald thinks is really embarrassing to join them.
Facts have proved that the people who are looking for in the strange adjustment are not all elites. When they say that combat effectiveness is never equated with IQ.
Of course, as an inscriptionist and a wizard, Donald is the one who is sought after. Even if he sits next to him and doesn't say a word, someone still comes up to make friends with him.
After shaking seven or eight hands in a row, he had a brief conversation with these people. The smile on his face made him tired, and Donald chose to give up.
It’s not that Donald refuses to socialize. He just thinks that interacting with these people is not very meaningful. If he needs teammates, he will naturally take the initiative to join in and even become the person who selects the person, but there is no need at the moment.
Rejecting everyone's invitation to form a team, quietly exiting the tavern in the cabin, and returning to his room along the corridor. Liluo was sitting cross-legged on the bed, facing the opened window.
After looking at the time, it was already 8:30 in the evening. Donald shivered by the sea breeze at night, and his somewhat dull mood rose a little.
"It's better to be here, it's comfortable, Lilo, you promised me and close the window."
He went to the bed, leaned against the bedding, looked at Lilo next to him and said.
"oh."
He got up and closed the window, imitated Donald leaning against the bedding, and soon turned to the side to facilitate drinking lemon juice.
"Lilo, can I turn off the lights?"
Looking at the sound of the sea tide outside, Donald did not choose to practice magic, but communicated with Lilo through his mental power, and he was ready to rest.
This period of busyness has not given him a good rest. He will probably approach his destination tomorrow evening. At that time, there will be a jungle adventure, so he must keep his physical strength at its peak as much as possible.
Smack ~
The lights are turned off, and the sound insulation in the cabin is quite good. Even the sound of the sea tide outside cannot be heard. Only occasionally can you hear some footsteps of passengers coming and going outside after weakening.
"Good night."
Don't take off your clothes, this is Donald's habit outside. He put Finger in his arms as a warm water bag and fell asleep very quickly.
Lilo on the other side turned to look at Donald. She didn't understand why the person in front of her wanted to say good night. She didn't quite understand the meaning of these polite words.
However, she still opened her mouth, imitated Donald's previous pronunciation, silently made two mouth shapes, and then turned back to look at the sea outside.

At 5 a.m., the deputy captain wore a cold coat and carried a whale oil searchlight to walk up from the cabin. The cold air in late autumn made him rub his hands while walking. The whale oil lamp swayed around, and the light beam passed through the faint mist around. The hazy feeling made people look like they were still in a dream.
After passing the deck, I came to the captain's room. The captain had been driving the boat all night, and the empty bottles of wine and drinks were placed in a row next to the rudder.
"Captain, go and rest, and leave it to me next."
He walked his hands through the sleeves of the coat, and the deputy captain took the wine pot handed over by the captain and took a sip. The hot feeling rushed to his mind, dispelling fatigue and laziness.
"Be careful, we are carrying a boat of old men. If something happens, it will not be a reason for an overseas accident to get rid of it."
Their status of being able to drive ships of this level is already high in the eyes of ordinary people, but in the eyes of most passengers on the ship are no different from those walking on the street. At most, a label is added in front of them: ordinary people who can drive ships.
This mentality will naturally make some strange disciples look down on them.
After experiencing more, they will also tease the strange disciples as the uncle in private.
Of course, at most it is just a matter of saying that if only one of us is present.
"Don't worry, you can't believe my skills? I took a good night's rest last night... It's a pity that Maggie didn't go to sea with her this trip."
"Haha, you guy, I know you can't forget Maggie's big ass, and I'm going to meet her in my dream."
The men at sea always talked about dirty jokes. They walked out of the captain's room with the searchlights brought by the deputy captain and headed to the cabin stairs along the deck next to them.
I accidentally found a circle of ropes scattered on the side of the ship. I frowned. As the captain, I cursed a few words in a low voice after whispering the sailor on duty last night and then leaned forward to reorganize the ropes.
The searchlight was placed on the side of the boat, and the light happened to face the sea water outside.
Bang~Crash~
Suddenly, something heavy was falling into the sea and splashing water came from the side. The captain thought that it could not be something on the deck, so he quickly turned around and wanted to take a look around, for fear that something important would fall into the sea.
However, when he straightened up and turned to the side of the ship's side, he saw a "wall" that was once black and purple!
There is also the huge dark yellow round eye in the center of the "wall"!
Bang~~
The "wall" suddenly appeared and disappeared out of the boat, leaving only the sea water that was brought to the captain's face!
He took a few steps back and sat down, the captain opened his mouth and couldn't speak.

Donald was awakened in his sleep. He suddenly sat up from the bed, but his mind was confused by the temporary lack of oxygen supply.
"Who! What's wrong...Lilo, what happened?"
At first he thought he was still in the villa, and when reason gradually came to his mind, he found that Liluo, who was standing by his bed and her hand holding his quilt, realized that it was on the boat.
Donald knew that Lilo would not wake herself up because of some trivial matters, and she must have thought that some things had affected the safety of the two.
Reason completely returned, and there were vague sounds of dense footsteps in the corridor outside. Donald couldn't help but feel nervous. This is Osway overseas. Their voyage is close to one day. The worst result is a shipwreck. At that time, relying on his own demonic power, I don't know if I can return to the mainland...
"Look outside."
Lilo interrupted Donald's random thoughts and pointed to the window of the bed cabin. She didn't need to sleep, so she spent the whole night looking at the sea until just now.
She saw something different.
Put on the boots I placed beside the bed, go around Lilo's bed, support her hands on the window frame, and reach out to wipe away some mist on it.
"Nothing."
His eyes swept across the sea water outside. Apart from the mist in the early morning, there was only a large area of blue-black sea water. He raised his hand to pull the hair that had fallen down on his forehead to the side. Donald turned his head and looked at Lilo.
"There is something in the sea."
Lilo's response was very simple, and Donald could only turn his head back and stare at the sea water outside the window.
About 3 minutes later, Donald's sight went down, and below the water surface less than 5 meters away from the window, compared to the surrounding sea water, a huge shadow was flying under the ship.
The shadow was moving forward, and it took Donald's sight five seconds before he saw the shadow gradually shrinking and eventually disappearing into the sea.
Bang ~
With the violent impact, Donald had no time to react, he fell to the back, and the backpack placed on the bedside table also slid down in the impact, making a dull sound when he fell to the place.
"Shit, what the hell is this monster?"
Even though he had seen the giant toad in Lake Sel in Tallinn, Donald couldn't help but swear.
Woo~Woo~Woo~
The whistle that represented the alarm resounded throughout the cabin corridor, and it was obvious that others also discovered the guys in the sea.
"A sea monster attacks the ship. Please go to the deck immediately!"
"I'm repeating this. This is not a simple sea beast attack. There are huge sea monsters attacking the ship. Please go to the deck to help. If the ship capsizes, no one can escape!"
The sound in the broadcaster became louder and more anxious. It can be said that when you go out to sea to meet sea beasts, large ships of this level often do not care about the harassment of ordinary sea beasts, but can use special alarms and inform the entire ship to find help.
You don't have to think about it and it's a big guy!
"Lilo, get your backpack and we go to the deck. Remember to stand with me. You must not be too far away from me. Finger, go back to the backpack!"
Donald grabbed his backpack and asked Finger to jump in, zip up and go to the back of his body, walked a few steps outside to the door, and a pendant that looked like a droplet appeared out of thin air inside his neck.
Chapter completed!
