Chapter Seventy-Nine: Cooperation
The expression on Code's face darkened in his ecstasy, and he turned to stare at Char's face intensely.
"Captain Charles, thank you so much for handing over the charts......"
The Cult of Light believers, who were standing in the hallway at the door, walked into the room with a blank face and looked at Charles intently.
Faced with the other party's threat, Charles didn't care at all, he looked at him indifferently.
"What? The remaining thirty-three islands, you plan to gnaw down alone?"
"As long as I have charts, I can find the other captains to cooperate! After Cord finished speaking, the light god believers pulled out the various firearms hidden under their robes.
Charles's left hand suddenly moved on its own, reaching for the lightning staff on the inside of his coat.
"Don't move, he's just bluffing. Charles suppressed the movements of his other personality.
Charles looked at Khde and said again, "Is this because I am afraid that I will first discover the Land of Light, and then abduct your God of Light? At this point, our goals are aligned. ”
Charles stretched out his right hand and looked calmly at the old man in front of him.
Ed pounced, frantically grabbing Charles's collar with his hand, and the green tendons on his neck bulged.
"Cooperation? Why should I cooperate with you? In order to accomplish your mission, I have mobilized all the forces I have access to! If the archbishops find out that I am doing this kind of thing, I will definitely be dragged back to the Basilica of the Holy Light for trial!"
"Are you scared?"
Kede's face changed instantly, and there was a hint of panic in his eyes.
The corners of Charles's mouth went up, and he suddenly changed the subject. "At this time, don't you need an experienced explorer captain more? Actually, we don't have any contradictions, right? You cheat me, I cheat you, and this just balances out. ”
The wrinkles on Cade's face trembled, and he let go of his hand fiercely, and turned his gaze back to the charts in the diary.
"I currently have three exploration ships in my hands, plus one of yours, a total of four, four ships explore an island every two months, and you can find the ladder to the land of light within two years at the earliest!"
Seeing the muzzle of the Illuminati believer next to him slowly dropping, Charles walked to the other side of the table and sat down.
"No, it's not as easy as you think, exploring an unknown island is dangerous, can you make sure that your three exploration ships survive to the end? ”
"If you can't do it, you have to do it!!!I've given everything out!I have to die in the land of light, and only by dying in the land of light can I enter the kingdom of the god of light!!"
Hearing this, Charles inexplicably felt a little pitiful, this guy is completely crazy.
"Don't you have anyone else in your church? Maybe ask them to help. "Charles wanted Code to find foreign help.
"Didn't you hear me, if they knew what I was doing, I would be dead! And the old diehards of the cathedral don't believe you!"
Charles sighed, leaned forward, and tapped his fingers on the chart.
"Anyway, let's start exploring, tell me the target of your three ships, and don't wait for them to collide together. ”
Ed pulled out the quill next to the inkwell and drew a circle on the three islands. "Two months later we gathered here to exchange information. ”
With that, he turned around and walked straight to the door.
"Haha, this second fool with a hole in his brain seems to be having a hard time. Richard complained in Charles's head.
"Don't worry about him, the more devout this kind of cultist is, the better it is to take advantage of it. After comparing the charts, Charles drew a circle on an island on the chart. "The next target is here. ”
With the help of Lily Mouse, the crew quickly arrived, and the Narwhal, which had been maintained for three months, was launched again.
If there is anything different about this voyage, it is that James's wife Moxika came to see off her husband in person, and her true identity was discovered, and James no longer hid anything.
Seeing their reluctance on the docks, a group of bachelors on the boat were very jealous.
The doctor limped over to Charles and pulled out a piece of gel again, "I'll see how it works during this time." ”
A frowning Charles tilted his head and swallowed. The ringing in his ears sounded again, but it was much better than before, at least the doctor was barely a human in front of him, and he was not completely deformed.
Three minutes later, the anomaly disappeared again, and this time the doctor nodded with satisfaction, holding a small notebook and constantly recording something. "No matter what you've done during this time, keep it up, it's very useful for removing your mental pollution, as long as you keep it up, even if it's a curse from the gods, I can guarantee that you will live to be 30 years old. ”
Charles simply ignored the curse-like assurances in the old man's mouth. "How's your black mirror doing? It's best not to use electricity directly, it's a delicate thing. ”
The doctor didn't raise his head and said, "That thing is mine now, I have my own way, I don't need you to take care of it." ”
"If it's on, remember to notify me. Charles was equally curious about the contents of the tablet.
The doctor didn't respond anymore and turned away.
The days at sea were as boring as usual, and there was nothing out of the ordinary.
"Smack. Charles opened the cockpit door, and at the helm of this time was the second mate, Knona.
"Don't worry, captain, it's still on a safe route, what can happen. ”
"Don't take it lightly, safety routes can sometimes go awry. Charles looked at the vague buoy in the distance, but this time the buoy was normal, and as the narwhal moved, it leaned towards it at a constant speed.
"Captain, do you know the volcanic islands in the South Sea? I was born there. Knona approached Captain himself for a chat.
"Oh. Charles was inspecting the wall, casually perfunctory, and the mouths of the two pairs were really a little broken.
"Do you know the specialty there? In addition to iron and copper ore, the volcanic island is the most famous whale oil of the Nalivier whale, in addition to being used as lubricant and fuel, candles and soap, and the remaining residue can be used as fuel, like the fuel we use in the turbine room now, maybe it comes from my hometown. ”
In this regard, Charles still learned a little about it, in the early days of the earth's industrial revolution, the whale oil of sperm whales in the Pacific Ocean was a very important industrial material before the development of oil.
"Then how did you come to the North Sea? Coral Island is half a year away from the volcanic island just by boat. ”
Knona's face was a little helpless, "Actually, my father is the captain of a whaling ship, and he wants me to inherit his ship. But I don't want to, the smallest Levy whale is 100 meters long, and every year the boat is overturned by the whale and dies in the belly of the fish. ”
"So you're afraid of danger? To be honest, it's not a good choice for you to come to my ship. ”
Knona shook his head. "I'm not afraid of danger, but I'm afraid of my children doing these dangerous jobs, and I want to change. ”
Knona's voice continued with longing: "Captain, do you know that on my 10th birthday, my father took me to the island center for my birthday, and that time completely changed my mind, and I found that there are some people in the island heart who are really happy, each of them has their own land, they don't have to do anything, and the person who rents his land has to send him a message every month. They were only so happy because he had been a sailor on the Doge's ship when he first landed on the island. ”
"Don't worry, one day, you will have your own land. ”
"When that happens, I'll take all the people in my family and make them all islanders. As if he had thought of something, a sore spot flashed in his eyes.
