Chapter Seventy-Eight: Painting
Charles sat on the dock, looked at a cargo ship unloading in the distance, and began to work on the drawing board in front of him.
Patterning, color blocking, projection, reflection, gradually, a unique landscape watercolor painting appeared on the drawing board.
Charles never imagined that the strengthening of the body that 096 brought would also have a role in painting.
"How are you feeling?" Charles asked in his mind, towards the other personality.
"Okay, isn't the ambient a little dark?" the hand holding the brush moved on its own, adding some detail to it.
At first, the doctor just said it casually, but Charles carefully considered his other options, and Charles finally chose painting to relieve the pressure.
At first, Charles was just playing around, but when he drew all the scenes in his head, he gradually became fascinated.
The appearance of his family, the scenery on the surface, and all kinds of high-rise buildings, all kinds of beautiful and ugly watercolor paintings were painted by Charles, and it was very rewarding to be able to create the works in his heart.
In any case, Charles's goal was achieved, and with this hobby, he finally stopped thinking about going to sea all day long, and could stay quietly on the island, waiting for the island to take away the pollution brought by the earthly sea.
Three months have passed, and as Charles's painting skills have become more and more sophisticated, the tiredness and haggard on his face that have never disappeared have faded a lot.
While the two were discussing the work, the sailors who were hooking up their shoulders remotely were walking towards it.
One of the middle-aged men, who had a mole on his forehead, noticed Charles, who was painting.
He leaned over to look at it, and immediately said in astonishment: "Look, this gentleman is painting our ship!
A group of sailors gathered around, excitedly joining in the fun.
Charles didn't like the occasion very much, and was about to leave with his sketchpad, when the sailor, who had a mole on his face, said with a flattering smile on his face, "Can you draw me a picture of this gentleman?"
Charles's eyebrows jumped. "Draw what?"
"Do you know where the Governor is in charge of the Spider Islands, and the silk we are carrying this time, and my son has always wanted to know what it looks like, and I would like you to draw one of them, so that he may see them, he has never been to any other island. β
Looking at his expectant eyes, Charles thought for a moment and then sat down, expertly spreading the color blocks on the canvas. "Okay. β
"Wonderful!!!Let me tell you about the archipelago, it's really scary, it's all white spider silk on the trees and on the roof, and the spiders there are very big. Much bigger than a manβ"
"No need to explain. Charles interrupted him, and the brush smeared expertly on the paper,
As the details slowly fill in, a white island harbor appears on the drawing paper.
Behind the dense human building is dense spider silk, and a little red light is hidden in the spider silk, which is the red light of the spider's eyes, and if you distinguish it carefully, you can also see the outline of the spider that is larger than the house.
"Well, it's like the real thing, Mr. Painter, have you been to that island before?"
Spider Island provided a lot of clothing materials for the entire terrestrial human race, and Charles had been the captain of a cargo ship for several years, and of course he had run that route.
"Thank you, my son will be very happy with this thing. The sailor took the paper and ran towards the exit of the dock.
When the other sailors saw this, they leaned forward excitedly.
"Mr. Painter, can you draw me a picture of He Fang Island? I have never been there, and I have heard that the island is the most prosperous island in the northern sea, and I want to know what it looks like. β
"Mr. Painter, do you draw a portrait of a person? How about drawing one for me? I'm afraid that I will die at sea, and my daughter will forget what I look like. β
"Woo woo~" A low whistle silenced the sailors' arguments.
When Charles saw the appearance of a ship in the distance, his indifferent expression immediately became serious, and the hull of the ship had a white triangular standard, which was the ship of the Sun God Cult.
Charles walked straight through the sailors towards the docks, and his excellent eyesight made Charles immediately see Cord standing at the bow of the ship, and the previous kind expression completely disappeared, and Cord at this time was like a gambler with red eyes, with excitement and malaise in his eyes.
Before the ship could drop anchor, Ed stumbled down the rickety wooden ladder, carrying a watermelon-sized box in his hand.
"Here you go, give me the charts! hurry!" the box was thrown roughly.
Inside the box was a lime-clad Sonny head, his eyes were round, and even if he was dead, Charles could see the viciousness and madness in those eyes.
"You put a lot of effort into killing him, didn't you?" Charles pulled Sonny by the hair and lifted him out.
"Give!sea!picture!give!me!" Ed gritted his teeth and looked hideous, as if if Charles didn't give it, he would swallow him alive next.
"Don't worry. Charles turned around and walked towards his hotel with his head in his hand, and a gloomy Cord followed with a group of men.
"There are no traces of disfigurement on the side of the face, there is only one layer of skin, and there is also a steel needle of the Cult of Light in the brain, it seems that this thing is real. After confirming that it was correct, Charles threw his head into the stinking garbage heap next to him.
Seeing Sonny's death, Charles didn't have much emotional turmoil in his heart, he wanted to kill himself, then of course he had to fight back, it was just to clear the obstacles to return home with Care's hand.
"Crunch~" Charles's residence door pushed open, and Lily on the table put down the pencil on her shoulder and jumped to the ground. "Mr. Charles, are you back so early today?"
Charles grabbed her and ran his hand over the smooth hair on her back. After glancing at Code next to him, he said, "Let the crew gather, it's long enough to rest." β
"Okay. Lily glanced at Cord behind her, and ran out of the corner, the brown rats in the room quickly following.
"Smack. The page of the diary with the chart was shown in front of Khed, and the holy man of the Sun God Cult trembled and stretched out his hands to take it, but he shrank back in fear, and he hurriedly waved his hand at the subordinate next to him.
A follower of the Sun God Cult next to him quickly brought over a metal square box.
As he snapped, Charles realized that it was an old-fashioned camera.
After taking the photo, Kede took the diary, lay on it with full attention, and looked at it in detail.
After a long time, he looked up at Charles in front of him. "Are the coordinates correct?"
"I've been here before. Charles pointed to the island where 1002 existed. "Based on its coordinates, we can easily deduce the location of the other islands. β
"Good!good!great!!I'm about to find the place of light!!hahahahaha!!" Ed slapped the table like a child.
