Chapter 111: All Living Beings Are Suffering
The chaotic scene also proves that Shadow Island really sank. And that's just the boats that escaped, and those who didn't have one had to follow their island to feed the fish.
This is not the death of one or two humans, this is the disappearance of millions of people, although Charles has never considered himself to be a person here, but the thought of so many deaths of the same kind still makes him feel depressed in his heart.
The arrival of refugees from Shadow Island is not only affected by this, when the Narwhal finally docks, Charles finds that there are obviously a lot more laborers in the port area, and most of them are from the outer islands, and they are all refugees from Shadow Island.
Seeing the narwhal docking, everyone rushed over with hope on their faces, and when they found out that it was not a cargo ship, they left with a disappointed face.
But Charles couldn't see these things, he had his own things to do, and Charles gathered all the people who escaped from the island together.
Looking at the faces, Charles said to them: "Since they are all on the shore, then everyone will meet in the future." ”
These people were obviously very excited when they saw the island, and as soon as Charles finished speaking, he rushed towards the island, and they finally came back alive.
Of course, there are some individual politeness, a small man with a cap walked in front of Charles and made a respectful salute. "Mr. Charles, you are a great captain. Good luck finding a new island soon. ”
Charles chuckled. "Am I also great when I throw people into the sea?"
Cap shook his head, "As long as you can get the crew back to port safely, you're a great captain, those guys are just to blame." ”
The crowd quickly dispersed, and the rest were the crew of the Narwhal, Linda and another Illuminati, all of whom were their own.
"Linda, you go and see if Cord has come back, and if he does, let me know right away. ”
"As you wish. Linda, who was silent, crossed her hands over her chest and made a Cult of Light salute, turning and walking towards the exit of the docks.
Looking at the backs of the two of them leaving, Charles turned to look at his crew, each of them with excitement on their faces.
Charles didn't talk nonsense either, he knew that his crew didn't want to listen to his nonsense at this time, and directly started paying salaries.
Stacks of Echo Coins were taken away by the crew, and everyone's faces were filled with excitement, and there was nothing more joyful than being paid alive.
While Charles was distributing his salary on deck, a guy with a pipe in his mouth was waving his hat at the boat on the dock next to him.
A sailor named Jack on the Narwhal rushed down the ladder with a stack of money. The sound of the two talking with some excitement reached Charles's ears.
"Hey, Jack, my friend, you're back, let's go, let's be happy. ”
"Don't come to this set, and you want me to invite you, don't you? ”
"My cousin, don't say that, let me tell you good news, there have been a lot of new products in Pink Alley recently, all of them are from Shadow Island, not only are they beautiful but also very cheap, I heard that if you are lucky, you can still play with the people in the heart of the island. If you think about it, the guys who used to look at people with their noses were lying in bed waiting for us at that time, how cool it is. ”
"Is there such a good thing??"
"That's for sure, these women from Shadow Island are very poor and have nothing. ”
"Oh~ my God, then I have to take care of these poor girls' business. ”
"Old man, I'm a little inconvenient on hand today, can you ......"
"Okay, okay, it's all mine this time. ”
"Oh, my cousin, your heart is as generous as the sea. ”
Charles's hand handed out the banknotes, then he ignored it and began to calculate the pension of the dead crew members, which he could not control. All living beings in the earth and the sea are suffering.
A fee was paid to the sea keepers, and the narwhal and Saleen's Shen Yun were docked on the shore.
Tired and with a hint of relaxation, Charles walked towards the Bat Hotel, which now belonged to him.
There were more dirty street children on the streets, and every adult had a hint of impatience on his face.
Originally, the people in the port area were poor people who could barely eat, but the people of Shadow Island made it even more difficult for the lower classes, who were already living a difficult life.
To say that it is not for nothing that people are happy, believers of various religions stand on the side of the road and hand out leaflets. When life is hard, people always instinctively find a home for their hearts.
"Mr. Charles!!, long time no see. ”
Hearing the shouts behind him, Charles turned around and saw the Sea Serpents' little ears.
"What have you been doing lately? I haven't seen you in a long time?" "Little Ear, with a bandage on his left hand, walked over with a few of his subordinates.
For some reason, Little Ear's attitude towards Charles is obviously much better this time, and it can even be called a kind of flattery.
"I'm just busy with some trivial things, what's wrong with your hands?"
As soon as Charles mentioned this, Little Ear showed a hideous expression on his face and spat on the ground fiercely. "Bah, the garbage from Shadow Island was cut with a knife, and they dared to rob my territory! ”
Speaking of this, Little Ear's expression changed, and he leaned his head over and whispered: "Don't talk about this, someone asked me to ask you to do some dirty work, are you willing to do it? ”
Charles shook his head and refused directly, he didn't want to make a fuss at this time. "I'm sorry, I don't do this kind of thing. ”
A tall, thin man next to him had a bit of an opinion about Charles's attitude. "Charles, give our boss a little face, our boss is rare-"
Before he could finish speaking, Little Ear took out the revolver on his waist, grabbed the barrel of the gun and turned his hand and smashed it his face. "Is it your share to speak, shut up Lao Tzu!!"
After reprimanding his subordinates, Xiao Er said with a smile: "It's okay, if you don't agree, forget it, I just asked, I thought I would often come to my place to play when I was free, I was welcome at any time." ”
Charles looked at him calmly and left with a pack of rats.
It wasn't until he couldn't see Charles's back that Little Ear said to the guy next to him in anger: "Are you stupid? You also mess with people like him? Haven't you heard of him killing the Dagger Gang?"
"Isn't he the same Charles who drove a small broken ship a year ago? The reprimanded little brother said unconvinced.
Little Ears looked at the direction of Charles' departure with a faint envy in his eyes.
"Don't you know? He's not the same as before, and now he's not the same as us anymore......"
