Chapter 598 Nico

As long as the relics cooperate with each other, the effect of 1+1=2 can be achieved. Charles has known this for a long time.

For example, his transparent tentacles and lightning. After cooperating with each other, people can be directly shocked without warning.

But this is only useful for human beings, there are no human beings on the surface of the earth, the things he has to deal with, even he doesn't know what it is, he needs more useful relics.

"Does Governor Charles need this relic? My captain respects you very much. If you want it, he will definitely give it to you." The one-eyed pirate said respectfully.

Charles shook his head slightly. The relic this guy sells is an offensive relic, but the last thing he needs now is an offensive relic.

"What does the Governor need, you can ask us directly, and we will help the Governor find it." A staff member wearing a blue uniform of the Explorers Association walked up to Charles and asked.

Charles stood up and looked around, only to find that all eyes were on him.

There was curiosity, envy, and even admiration in their eyes.

Not everyone has this kind of treatment among explorers, but as a hero who has found dark clues, Charles has this kind of treatment. The most important thing is that he is one of his own, he is an explorer.

Charles' identity is sometimes useful, at least among explorers.

""cough. Charles cleared his throat and said, "Everyone, I need a life-saving relic, preferably one that can resist the gods." "

As soon as Charles said this, everyone's expressions changed immediately, and the people in Earthsea certainly didn't know what a god was.

"Governor Charles, you mean, there is a god in the dark direction?" A trembling voice came from the crowd.

"I don't know what it is, but in this situation, I can only think of the worst. Why, are you afraid? Don't worry, I will lead the exploration this time."

Hearing what Charles said, some people were immediately unconvinced. "Afraid? What is there to be afraid of, isn't it death? Don't fight me, I must be the first to explore."

"That's right, I'm afraid? Your Excellency Governor really knows how to joke."

The other explorers responded in twos and threes, saying that they don't take any bullshit gods seriously.

But Charles could see that there was a trace of fear in some people's eyes. They were just talking hard and afraid that others would look down on them, but they were still scared in their hearts.

Charles turned his head and looked at the members of the association aside, "The news I sent, didn't your president directly release it? It's this time, what are you still hiding?"

The man lowered his head, and said in a very anxious voice: "Sorry, I don't know, my job is not responsible for this, you can ask the president directly, the telegram is on standby for you at any time."

Charles didn't bother to embarrass him. Since they deliberately concealed the danger in the dark direction, it seemed that the Explorers' Association meant that they wanted to conceal this danger and give other explorers the illusion that the danger was not high.

After all, although explorers are not afraid of death, they are not moths who know that death must be sent to the front.

"Let's talk about this later, back to the topic, who of you has what I need, there should be a lot of relics in Hope Island's Relic Research Institute, I can exchange them."

Seeing that the governor of Hope Island had spoken, the others immediately crowded up and offered their relics.

One after another, strange relics were neatly placed in front of Charles, but after searching here and there, Charles did not find a suitable relic, but this was normal, as it was impossible for a relic to resist the existence of gods.

Just when he was a little discouraged, a masked man came to Charles with a metal box the size of a grapefruit in his hand.

"Governor Charles, this relic should be able to meet your requirements, as long as you are willing to pay the price it needs." The voice was very soft and soft, and it was very comfortable to hear, with a hint of familiarity.

Charles looked up and down for a while, and after confirming that the other party was a man, he sincerely asked the other party to open the box.

Inside the box was a palm-sized tripod, and a strange skeleton was nailed to the center of the tripod with rusty nails.

Charles couldn't figure out what this thing was. It seemed to be made of corals of different colors and the skeleton of a mouse. The relic looked very old as a whole, as if it was the casual work of a bad artist .

"Can this thing stand against the gods?" Charles asked.

"It can't be resisted, but it can allow you to evacuate early from the gaze of the gods, as long as you are willing to pay the price it needs."

"how to use?"

"To take advantage of it, an operation must be performed to bury it in your heart while you are conscious."

Charles was startled, this relic seemed to be really different from ordinary relics, and it actually had to be buried in his heart.

"When you have completed the operation, then you will have the ability to be immune to any mental pollution."

"Hmm..." Charles looked at the thing in his hand thoughtfully. Although it sounds good to be immune to mental pollution, it doesn't look like a good thing to bury this thing in his heart. "Then what's the side effect?"

"Over time, a part of its hair will gradually dilate along your blood vessels. When it is completely dilated, then your body is its own, usually about ten years."

Charles didn't want to use this relic, the risk of doing so was too great, but the ability of this relic was indeed very useful, and he couldn't let it go.

"What do you need in exchange for this special relic?"

The masked man shook his head slightly. "I don't need anything. Is there any shortage of people on your boat? I want to get on your boat."

"No." Charles resolutely refused, and a guy of unknown origin boarded the boat rashly. God knows what his origin is. Feuerbach's loss cannot be suffered a second time.

"Governor Charles, I am not a suspicious guy. Speaking of which, we have met before, you should still remember me?" The masked man took off the mask on his face.

That was Nico, the man-loving governor of Coral Island, his face heavily painted.

Seeing Charles' surprised expression, Nico smiled charmingly. "Governor Charles seemed taken aback, wondering why I'm here?"

"There are too many people here, let's go out and talk." Charles turned his head towards the door.

Soon, in a quiet room of the Explorers Association, Charles looked at Nico who was drinking coffee in front of him. "Why did you come up here? Shouldn't you stay on Coral Island to stabilize the situation?"

Nico took the silver spoon and turned it around gently, melting the white sugar in the black coffee, with a bitter smile on his face.

"My husbands took away the sovereignty of the coral island from me when the dead light caused riots. I am not the governor of the coral island now, I am just an ordinary explorer."
