Chapter 247: Mysterious City - Charles, the Leader
It didn't take much effort for the three of them to find the person named Charles written in the intelligence, a little old man in his sixties, in terms of appearance, giving people an approachable feeling without too much difference, rough skin, and because of long-term farming, the body is a little rickety, this ordinary old farmer has nothing similar to 075, and there is nowhere to indicate that 075 needs an old farmer, so he needs to teach everyone to farm.
When Sister Hua revealed her identity, the old man was obviously shocked, and when he saw the secret letter that Stern gave him, his eyes showed a sharp gaze.
He cautiously swept around, and after making sure that no one around was paying attention, he said solemnly, "Come in with me." ”
"Uncle, could it be that there are other forces here?" Leng Zhuo said with a big grin.
"This island is like a forgotten place, but I used to get into the habit of being out on missions, so there's nothing wrong with being careful. Charles said with a serene expression.
The group followed the old man into the house.
The old man didn't say a word, but walked to the sofa in the room, picked up the cigarette gun beside him, and smoked it.
"Uncle, can you tell me about the situation? It's not a solution for you to keep smoking. Ye Fan asked with a smile.
The old man took a puff of cigarette, looked at the three of them, and said with some embarrassment, "It's time to talk to you." ”
"Xiaohua, I didn't expect you to carry it out. The old man slammed the cigarette gun on the chair as he spoke, and glanced at Ye Fan and the others, "Before I will, you must be prepared in your hearts, what you are about to face may be a road of no return." “
Hearing the old man say this, the three of them were a little surprised, what is the road of no return, is there still any danger for you.
The old man did not continue, and began to smoke again.
It's a little uncomfortable to be cold, but this inconspicuous old man is what Stern asked us to find, and we can't be easily presumptuous.
"Uncle, if you have anything, you just say it, we 075 don't many people around the world know, since Stern asked us to come to you, you are the same, especially if you still know Sister Hua, don't sell it. Ye Fan said.
The old man pulled out a cigarette gun in his mouth, his eyes scanned over the three of them, and he sighed and said, "This Stern, you are too young to carry out the mission, I don't approve of it." “
"Uncle, it is a task to say that this kind of thing is a task, and there is no way to agree or disagree. Also, what kind of person are you, you dare to have five people and six people in front of us. Leng Zhuo said coldly.
"Hmph, you kid, speak politely, it's useless for me to be you outside, how many of you are there?" the old man said disdainfully.
Sister Hua hurriedly came out to discount the round, "Uncle, don't be angry, he said that's it, I and he are in the fifth group, he is in the third group of Lao Lei, you just tell us to listen, since we are here, we will not be afraid of anything." “
As soon as the old man heard it, "Group five, the group of the old flower, it seems that after the accident of the old flower, your five groups have become bad at once, who is the leader of the fifth group now?"
It's me, sir, who made me fail to discipline him well. Sister Hua said apologetically.
"Okay, since the leaders of the five groups have been discharged, you wait, I'll talk to you slowly. The old man got up and walked towards the back room.
"Sister Hua, why are you like this?" Leng Zhuo said with some unhappiness.
"You don't think that since this small island, Leng Zhuo's temper has become so irritable, and I have also had an impact, but this level of ang is still a little weaker for me and Sister Hua. Ye Fan said with a serious face, "Originally, I wasn't sure, but now Leng Zhuo is too abnormal." ”
Sister Hua frowned, felt it carefully, her face couldn't help but change, and she nodded slightly.
"Nani, why is it always me who is injured!" Leng Zhuo said with a bitter face.
"It should be related to strength, the weaker the person, the greater the impact. Ye Fan's eyes kept scanning the room.
At this moment, the old man walked out with a red work card and threw it on the small table in front of the three of them, "Before I speak, you should take a look, so that you don't know my identity"
Sister Hua picked up the work card, looked at it with some doubts, and said with some confusion, "075 Shipping Office, New World Liaison Office, Team Leader Charles Lei Li, joined the time in 1468 of the Haiyuan calendar. ”
This kind of red certificate, I have only seen it on my father, and now it is all used as an identity token, although it is not an identity token, but for this kind of 075 old man, the position is much higher than ours.
"Now, let's get down to business!" Charles's face was no longer the kind of honest old farmer, and in an instant, it became a little majestic, "The details of the mission, I can slowly tell you, this time my mission is different from the previous mission, and you have the right to refuse." ”
"Ah, Uncle Charles, you're not kidding, I've been in 075 for so many years, and I've never heard of a mission that you can refuse. Leng Zhuo said with some doubts.
"This is my right, you don't have to worry, after you listen to my mission, you decide whether to carry it out or not. Even if you leave immediately after listening to my account, no one will embarrass you when you return. ”
"Charles, now you can talk about it, right?" Sister Hua said with a frown.
Charles was a little on the cigarette gun, he seemed a little embarrassed, and his face was cloudy, "You are not the first people to come here, this matter is different, since I came here to become a liaison, basically every few years, I will carry out the execution, you are the fifth group of people to come here." You're very young, so you don't have any offspring. “
"Yo, it seems that the secret here is not small, there are actually four groups of people who came here before us, are they from 075?" Sister Hua, as the leader of the fifth group, has never heard of this matter.
"That's right, they're all 075 people, but they're all dead now, Xiaohua's father was the third batch of people to enter, and so far, he's the only one who came out alive, but now he's gone. Charles recalled with some bitterness.
"Uncle, you can tell me, what happened to my father and their I'an?" Sister Hua hurriedly said.
"This island, except for one of our villages here, is surrounded by only dense jungles, where there are many mountains and poisonous insects, and because of the special geographical environment here, if you go into the mountains, if you don't have our guidance, your stomach will only be a result, that is, death. Charles changed his words, and while talking about the cigarette gun tapped on the chair, he paused and continued, "If you think that there are other things here, you are very wrong, if there are any people among you who have eaten Devil Fruits, just leave by yourself, this forest is exclusive to those who have used Devil Fruits, everyone who has eaten Devil Fruits, in the forest is like a bright light, all the monsters you imagined, even unimaginable, will attack you." ”
"None of the three of us are Devil Fruit people. Sister Hua shook her head and said.
"That's good, when I first landed on this island, I found a strange thing here, that is, every ten years, something strange happens here, and a lot of fish-people will rush out of the sea, of course, this kind of fish-people are completely different from the fish-people you see now, they are stronger, each fish-man's skin is red, and there are some mysterious patterns on their bodies, their destructive power is amazing, but just when we thought we could resist, everyone only hid under the bed and shivered, suddenly a lot of warriors in black armor rushed out of the red island, they came quickly, and it took almost half an hour to retreatAfter that, I tried to go to the island to find the mysterious group of black warriors, but no matter how I searched, I couldn't find any news that belonged to them. ”
"Uncle, why don't you leave this island?" Ye Fan asked curiously.
"There's no way to get out of here, it's like there's a seal, and when you live here, there's only two options left, the first is to die silently here, and the second is to become that red fish-man. Charles said with some sadness.
"Then the people who come up from the outside will also be like this, and they will not be able to go out from now on. Ye Fan said with some fear.
"No, according to the locals, as long as you don't eat the black flowers on it to make food, you'll be fine. Charles explained.
"Huh, that's good, otherwise Sister Hua, I have to launch it, because I have something to accomplish. Ye Fan breathed a sigh of relief and said, it seems that he has only used the aura here to maintain his consumption recently.
"Sister Hua, why don't we leave first, and then bring enough food from outside to come in. Leng Zhuo said cautiously.
"But you're running out of time, and if you miss these three days, you may never be able to get in here again. Charles said lightly, walked to the window, looked at the sea in the distance and became more and more obvious, and was silent.
"Uncle, can you tell my father what happened after they entered?" Sister Hua said solemnly.
"Originally, I wasn't going to tell you about this, I think you've already seen that photo, the head is our old rival Mr. Black's person, there should be something in it that Mr. Black is interested in, but your father didn't tell me a word about what happened in it, and finally he left the island alone, and I, because I had already used black flowers, and there was no way to leave the island, so I stayed in the end and became a guide. Charles said with some pain.
"Uncle, there must be a way to get out!" Leng Zhuo stepped forward and said comfortingly, but his eyes were a little dumbfounded when he saw the strange appearance in the sky.
