Chapter 365 Contract

"This is my crew member. She used to be a human, but now she has become a mouse. You taught me how to restore her to her original state."

Charles carefully held the mouse in his hand and asked, but the Pope obviously didn't want to answer this question.

"So this is the reason why your voyage has been postponed indefinitely? A mouse?" The Pope, who was sitting on the sofa, laughed, but there was no smile in his eyes.

Touching Lily's head with his hand, Charles, who was full of regret, shook his head. "Lily is not a mouse, she was just turned into a mouse by some means. To be exact, she is a human, but not from our world."

After a "crack", the Pope stood up suddenly, and his voice was filled with anger again, "Don't tell me this! Don't you want to go back to your home?"

"Of course I have to go back, but my crew's life is in danger now. I have to find a way to cure her before I go to find the exit on the surface. You haven't answered my question yet. Is there any way for your church?"

"Is it important to go back to the surface or the mouse in your hand?" At this moment, the Pope's face was getting closer and closer to Charles's.

"The surface is there, it can't run away, I've been waiting for twelve years, I don't care about waiting another year, but my crew has only four months left to live, this can't wait." Charles said and lifted Lily in his hand kissed her gently on the cheek.

Seeing Charles kissing herself, Lily looked very happy, the corners of her mouth were raised to reveal her small white front teeth, and her tail was wagging like a puppy.

The Pope shook his head with a disappointed expression, "My child, you have changed. You are no longer the indomitable and desperate Charles. The exit is right in front of you. You are still wasting time on these little things."

"People change, but I like the change."

"Your island is in danger. I rescued you. You were blinded because I let you regain your light. In the end, this is how you repaid me? Have I been too weak in front of you for a long time? That Forgot my...real identity?"

There were streaks of white light emitting from the pope's skin, supporting his body like a demon. A powerful aura spread from the pope's body, and the suppressed Charles kept retreating.

Facing the pope who suddenly turned his face, Charles didn't panic at all. There was a sneer on his face. He put Lily in his pocket first, and then strode towards the pope.

The black blade popped out from the palm of the prosthetic limb, and Charles handed the sharp weapon directly to the Pope, and readily exposed his neck.

With a hint of madness in his eyes, he said: "Come on, my neck is here, kill me immediately if you have the ability."

The Pope froze for a moment, and looked at Charles in surprise, his aura slowly disappeared.

"See, this is the main artery. Cut it open with a knife. No matter how strong my healing ability is, I will die within a minute at most. Cut it!"

At this time, the church fell into a passive position, holding a dagger in its hand in a dilemma.

"Don't cut it, no problem, I'll do it myself!" Charles' prosthetic limb instantly turned into a chainsaw, slashing at his neck fiercely.

For the first time, panic appeared on the pope's wrinkled face.

Just as the fast-rotating chainsaw was tearing Charles' neck apart, the chainsaw was blocked by a black dagger, and the two constantly collided with sparks. It was the black blade in the Pope's hand.

The fast-spinning chain saw slowly stopped, and Charles looked at the Pope and smiled. "Why can't I continue acting? Hasn't His Excellency the Pope's acting skills always been very good?"

"I don't know what you're talking about, I just think we've known each other for so long, we can't just watch you die, kid." There was a trace of regret in the Pope's eyes.

"Stop pretending! What are you planning on me? Why am I so important to you!! Why were you so nervous when you heard that I was blind? Why did you only ask me to explore the island alone?"

"And the most important thing! Since you got the surface exit map, why are you desperately urging me to go to sea? Under normal circumstances, with the hope of the God of Light, shouldn't you form a fleet to go to the destination as soon as possible? Or... Your purpose is not the surface at all?"

The pope threw the black blade on the ground casually, without saying a word with a gloomy face.

Charles' transparent tentacles entangled the black blade on the ground and stuffed it back into the prosthesis.

"I don't know what you're plotting and what you're planning to do with me. I'll say the same thing, as long as Lily doesn't recover, I won't go to sea."

Charles took Lily out of his pocket and walked to the balcony, enjoying the warm sunshine while stroking Lily's hair.

After a few minutes, Charles turned around and found that the Pope who had been standing there before had disappeared.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly. In fact, he had suspected the other party for a long time, but it was just speculation before, but when he saw that the other party did not move at all after getting the chart, he was sure that his guess was correct.

The other party must be plotting something against him. What he said before was purely for keeping secrets and so on. It was just a lie. There is no truth in this old bastard's mouth.

But soon, the Pope came to Charles again. This time he came not only alone, but with a dozen people behind him.

This time the Pope's tone was significantly softer. "That's right, I'm really plotting against you. I don't deny this, but it doesn't conflict with our mutual interests. The God of Light told me that only the Chosen One of Yidick can open that door."

"I said before that you are different from anyone else, you are the only one, the reason I didn't tell you earlier is because—"

Halfway through the Pope's words, Charles interrupted him directly. "My lord, have you heard the story of the wolf coming?"

"What?"

"It's fine if you haven't heard it. I don't want to hear your explanation. I don't believe a word of what you say now. Let's stop talking about it. Let's talk about it."

"What's your real name?"

"Ledger, why are you asking this?"

Charles took out a black marker pen from his pocket, and scribbled on the huge wooden table in front of him.

Conditions: Pope Ledger of the Light God Sect, use all the power of the Light God Sect within four months to find a way to restore Lily.

Remuneration: Charles will fully assist the other party in finding the surface exit, and must not do anything irrelevant during the period.

【agree? disagree? 】

"This pen is a powerful relic. Anyone who dares to break his promise will disappear in an instant. Do you dare to sign it?" Charles threw the marker pen in his hand to the other party.

The sentence after the remuneration was specially added by Charles for himself. It seems to be restricting himself, but in fact it is restricting the other party, restricting the other party to let him find his way out.

If the pope is really just looking for the surface, then it is impossible for him not to sign such a strong condition.

If he doesn't sign, then the other party's motives are very worthy of scrutiny.

"Well, it seems that you don't believe what I say, I'll sign it!" The Pope took a pen and wrote his name.

"Huh~!" The red flame instantly ignited on the note, and the contract between the two was established.
