Chapter 563 Provocation

"You seem to know things on the surface? You are also from the surface?" Lilith looked at Charles.

"I am asking you, not you asking me, when you came down, did any abnormal changes occur in the human world on the surface, such as disasters such as earthquakes." Charles regained the right to speak forcefully.

Lilith shook her head, "At least nothing happened before I grabbed it. Everything is normal, but it's hard to say."

"Because from the time I was captured on the surface to the time I escaped from Earthsea, the Foundation did not allow me to contact the outside at all, everything was sealed, even the cargo ship that escorted us experimental subjects down was completely closed. It's just an iron box."

"Now the surface is like this, and I don't know why."

"You said you were arrested by the Foundation in 1991, so how old is this year?" Charles' heart beat faster when asked.

"It's exactly 1016 years old, I remember it very clearly."

The room fell silent instantly, Lilith didn't say anything, and Charles didn't ask.

After a long time, Charles nodded. "Let your people come over, I agree to your request, you vampires are now part of the exploration of the surface."

"Very good, you made an expected and wise choice." The next second, Lilith's blood-red body fell directly, and the tumbling red mist scattered around.

Seeing that the other party had completely disappeared, Charles bent down and opened the drawer next to him. Inside was a mental printer, on which a large stack of paper had already been stacked.

After taking it out and reading it carefully, Charles found that the other party was not lying, and everything she said about the surface was true.

"A thousand years have passed since my era? Haha, it's really long ago." Charles laughed softly.

His laughter is full of open-mindedness, the obsession with the past has disappeared, and Lilith's answer is just a full stop.

Charles didn't bother to go to other places, and started the communication ceremony directly in the captain's room.

After hearing that the vampires from Dark Crystal Island also joined the exploration, the other three did not object.

After all, compared to the troubles 100 years later, the most important thing is to find the darkness first. If you can't find the darkness, then no amount of worry is necessary.

"Charles, why haven't there been any discoveries above? We need some good news to inspire people. People on the Earth Sea islands are getting more and more fluctuating." Julio said with a serious expression.

"Good news? It's only been a few months. What news do you want me to give you? If you want to hurry up, why don't you come and see for yourself?"

"Do you think I'm hiding below to escape? Let me tell you, if I hadn't suppressed it below, the Fortan religion would have spread throughout the entire Earthsea! You would have run out of food up there!"

Seeing that the atmosphere was tense, Harhold next to him opened his mouth to smooth things over. "Governor Charles, you also know that we are not as good at exploring this kind of thing as you are, and we can't help you when we go up. It's better to let us stabilize the situation with your wife."

"The situation below is equally grim. After all, this situation where the end is approaching is most suitable for the spread of cults. If no one cares about it, people's hearts will easily collapse."

Charles didn't say anything, just disappeared in place.

Julio snorted coldly and was about to leave, but at this moment, an octopus-headed sandman suddenly appeared next to them, and Okett, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, went online again.

"Governor Julio, do you really continue to cooperate with them? In fact, what Charles told you is wrong. He is the sinner of the entire Earthsea humanity. The appearance of the death light is the result of his joint efforts with the Pope of the God of Light."

"Apart from looking for the darkness, you actually have a second choice, and that is to join us. As long as you join us, we can transform your body to make you adapt to the ocean. When the great and powerful one wakes up, we will gain eternal life together! "

"Get lost!" Julio's voice exploded like thunder.

"You don't believe it? I have evidence, you can judge after reading it."

"You'd better not wait for me to be free, you bastards in the sea, I will kill you sooner or later!! Harhold, let them go away!"

As the white-haired old man next to him lightly hit the ground with his staff, the Okert formed by the sand disappeared in an instant.

Harhold stroked his beard with his hands, "Why didn't you wait for him to finish?"

"You don't have to wait until the end, so what if what he said is true? Attack Charles now? The most important thing now is to bring Earthsea back to normal, and we can wait until later." After Julio finished speaking, Just exit the ceremony.

Just as Harhold was about to leave, he saw the president of the Explorers' Association, who had no sense of presence, constantly recording something with a pen and paper.

Hearing the other party's inquiry, Jax stopped the pen in his hand, adjusted his monocle and said with a smile: "Sorry, my memory is not very good, and I always feel that a good memory is worse than a bad pen."—— ———————————————

Charles slowly opened his eyes. He had just put on his clothes and rushed outside when he suddenly stopped. Today is his rest day.

He also had to rest and release the pressure in his heart, otherwise it would be detrimental to the next exploration if it kept accumulating.

Charles sat down slowly, and took out the drawing board that was already a little dusty in the corner of the room. He let his thoughts go and picked up the brush.

Before long, Charles' own self-portrait appeared on paper.

Looking at himself in the painting, Charles breathed a sigh of relief and didn't move for a long time, as if he had regressed a lot.

"Mr. Charles, why are you painting yourself?"

Charles turned his head slightly, and at some point, Lily was already standing on his shoulders. "Where have you been recently? Why haven't I seen you?"

"I directed my friends to the Explorers' Association, and I asked them to join other exploration teams, so that if the explorers encounter a place where mice can be used, everyone can help a lot!"

Charles glanced at the little mouse in surprise, "It's really good, Lily, you can actually come up with such a way."

"Hee hee, this is what we should do. If the sea floods the island, everyone will die, so we have to use every strength." Lily said, rubbing the bandage on Charles' face .

Charles reached out and took her into his hands, and jumped directly from the side window amidst her exclamation. "Let's go, rest today, don't talk about this, let's go to the Jukeng Fortress."

"Yeah! I really like shopping with Mr. Charles!"

While Charles was taking Lily to admire the scenery of different shops around them, they passed by a shop with huge colorful mushrooms hanging on the signboard.

It sells all kinds of addictive things, such as soothing fruit, psychedelic mushrooms, and all kinds of strange powders.

These things are completely illegal on Hope Island, but there is no taboo here.

Charles didn't let people control him, and people were going to die, so he didn't care that much.

Everything has to be looked at from different perspectives. For example, morphine is a drug in the hands of addicts, but it is a good medicine for pain relief in the hands of terminal cancer patients.

With these things, the mood of the explorers will be more stable.

The shop was very popular, and there was an endless stream of customers. Just as Charles was covering Lily's eyes with his hands and was about to walk quickly, he saw Margaret picking goods inside.
