Pendant?

Upon hearing the words of the subspace shadow before her, Heidi was first stunned. Then, she lowered her head to look at the amethyst pendant from some glass workshop hanging on her chest. In the next second, all the things about the pendant flooded into her mind...

The strange antique shop, the pendant her father brought back from the antique shop, the unbelievable protection during the Black Sun incident, the second pendant, Vanna's inconclusive investigation of that antique shop, and... Duncan Abnormale's appearance and words now...

The psychiatrist finally gradually widened her eyes. Wild guesses gradually evolved into a definite fact. She suddenly felt... she might need some psychological help.

"Relax, and control your gaze, don't look randomly at things you shouldn't see," Duncan said to Heidi with a smile, unhurriedly. "Your father specifically asked me to remind you of this."

Heidi felt her mind buzzing. She couldn't tell if it was noise caused by mild spiritual pollution or just auditory hallucinations caused by nervous tension. She held her forehead and finally managed to control her reason and impulse, but still felt her thinking was slow and disjointed: "My father... he is now..."

"Working as a consultant on the Shifting Tides—he was afraid you would worry, so he didn't tell you, but we didn't expect you to get involved in the incident so muddleheadedly."

"Is he alright? He's on your ship..." Heidi asked subconsciously. However, when she looked at the majestic "Captain" in front of her, her voice suddenly hesitated. She felt that no matter how she asked, it seemed impolite and rash at the moment.

Duncan didn't care about these things, and just casually replied: "He's fine, maintaining the healthiest routine in the team, and playing a huge role on the ship—anything else you want to know?"

Heidi opened her mouth, her mind reorganizing words for a long time, before she suddenly thought of another thing, a thing that happened almost at the same time as her father left home, and now, thinking back, was full of doubts—she felt her guess was simply crazy, but she couldn't help but ask: "Then... Vanna, is she also on your..."

Duncan did not answer directly, but affirmed her guess from the side: "Want to see them?"

Heidi was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer this simple question. After two or three seconds, she suddenly woke up, and then her first reaction was to put away her large pile of terrifying personality fragments, while hurriedly saying: "Is it okay? You really allow it? Ah, sorry, I didn't mean anything else, but I've heard a lot about you... I should..."

Her flustered words suddenly stopped.

Because along with a rotating, ghostly green flame door, two particularly familiar figures had already appeared in front of her.

Morris had a smile on his face, while Vanna's expression was a bit awkward.

"Well... long time no see." Vanna came to Heidi, touched her nose and said hello, "Sorry for keeping it from you for so long, the new position is a bit sensitive, mainly because there are confidentiality requirements, this time it was only allowed by the captain... Are you angry?"

Heidi did not answer, but just stared at her longtime friend, and then stared at Morris on the side. After a long time, she finally blurted out: "Can someone explain to me in detail, what exactly is going on?"

"You guys talk slowly," Duncan said, seeing that they had already begun to communicate, and immediately waved his hand with a knowing look. "I'll chat with Lucretia."

Leaving two "crew members" and Heidi staring at each other in place, embarrassment overflowing.

Duncan did not pay attention to the subtle atmosphere of resentment from Vanna and Morris behind him. He had already come to Lucretia with particular composure, but saw that the "Sea Witch's" eyes were dodging and her expression was quite embarrassed.

Lucretia had been brainstorming for a long time—after her father suddenly entered this dream, she had been in a state of confusion and helplessness. Just now, while her father was communicating with that "psychiatrist," she was trying to think about how to communicate with this long-lost "relative," how to adjust her mentality like Tyrian, and...

How to explain the scythe thing just now.

However, when her father really walked towards her, she realized that she had not prepared at all—the "Witch" who terrified many people on the Boundless Sea was actually not very good at dealing with such emotional emergencies. Instead, because of her random thoughts for a while, she was even more at a loss at the moment.

Lucretia opened her mouth: "I..."

"Don't rush," Duncan suddenly waved his hand to interrupt Lucretia's words, and then turned to look at the three people not far away. "Watch for a while first."

Lucretia: "...?"

She was a little dazed for a moment, unable to understand what her father meant by "watch for a while first," and even subconsciously associated it with things like "plotting" and "scheming" that were completely irrelevant, but in the next second, she realized that this familiar but long-separated figure beside her was just looking not far away, with a human-like, theatrical expression on his face.

The Sea Witch hesitated for a moment, and also looked in that direction. A strange feeling welled up in her heart. She didn't know how to describe this strange and awkward development—this was different from the scene of reuniting with her father that she had imagined for many years.

She had imagined that one day in the future, she, who was immortal, might also encounter the Shifting Tides returning from subspace like Tyrian. She had imagined that there might be a fierce confrontation between the Brilliant Star and the Shifting Tides. The evil spirit from subspace would destroy all the betrayers, just like he destroyed the Viseland Thirteen Islands on the border back then...
