Mysteries of the Earthsea

Chapter 806 Opera

"Winning, where is this lighthouse island in the western waters?" Charles asked his daughter as he resumed his stroll on the street.

"The central position, it should be." Shining continued to nibble on the shortbread in his hand.

"The reaction in the West Sea is really slow. Hope Island's technology is developing rapidly. Are they really planning to keep it for a lifetime and be abandoned by everything in the Earth Sea? It is necessary to tell the person in charge of the West Sea at the next Earth Sea meeting. said."

Compared with the northern seas that he occupied and the southern seas that Julio dominated, the western seas were always too slow in terms of accepting new technologies and implementing administrative procedures, completely different from other places.

"Didn't you come out with me? Can you concentrate?" Seeing that Charles was a little absent-minded, Shining frowned slightly dissatisfied

Charles stood still in the middle of the crowd with Shining, looking at the streets with people coming and going, "Are you just wandering around like this? Find a local who knows the way."

"Who are you looking for?"

"I hope there isn't a person on the island who is from the West Sea?"

With a flash of white light, Grace, who was holding a book, looked at the surrounding environment in astonishment.

"Eat it?" Shining put the shortbread in front of her.

"Captain, is this... Lighthouse Island?" Grace looked at everything around her in shock.

"You know this place? That's great, take me and Dad to have fun, what's so special about this island?" Shining asked the girl in front of her.

Grace's complexion changed, and finally a reluctant expression appeared on her face, "Okay, Captain, this way, I'll take you to find a car first."

After the two father and daughter looked at each other suspiciously, they followed.

It is good to have a local to lead the way, and soon they got into a four-wheeled carriage and drove slowly towards the center of the island.

There are no horses on Lighthouse Island, so the carriages are pulled by 6 strong men, with horse bits in their mouths, and driven by the groom's whip, they pull towards the front.

Then Charles learned from Grace that the original system implemented in the West Sea was a caste system, which divided people into different classes according to their work.

Among them, of course, the mage families with magical abilities are the highest class, the second is those who have enough magical talent to barely become the assistants of the mages, and then the common people, and different commoners have different castes.

People pulling carts like these are the lowest existence, they have no human rights, they are just tools.

The caste is different, the social status of all people is different, and the treatment they can enjoy is also different.

No matter how rich a person of a low caste is, if he has no magical ability, he will always be inferior.

Just like the previous pancake stall owner, with his class, he was not allowed to buy or own a pocket watch at all.

The only thing that can surpass this kind of class is the magic talent that is absolutely different from ordinary people. When a commoner is found to have amazing magic talent, then they will be sent to the mage tower to study. There will be an exception to allow intermarriage with people of magical castes.

Hearing this, Charles immediately realized that Grace should be a commoner with magical talent, no wonder she didn't go back afterwards.

Whether it is compared with Charles Julio's dictatorship or the integration of politics and religion of the Fortan Church, this system in the Western Sea Region is too backward.

"Why do you have such an expression on revisiting the old place? Do you have an enemy here? Do you want my help?" Charles asked, looking at Grace, who was not in high spirits.

"No, no, this is the place where I lived. Coming back here reminds me of the past." Grace looked at the pointed roof outside the car window, her expression was a bit complicated.

"Oh." Charles nodded, "Where are we going?"

"Peter's Opera House in the center of the island, it's the best opera house in the whole world, and the actors there have magic."

Hearing what she said, Charles immediately understood why Dihai was the best. The opera houses on other islands mostly used props to support it, but here it was just for real.

When everything around was slowly illuminated by bright street lights, and there were more carriages on the road, Charles knew that he had arrived in the heart of the island.

The decoration was extremely gorgeous, and the Peter Opera House surrounded by various magic balls appeared in front of them.

A group of men and women in formal attire got off the carriage and walked in. Among them were some people in robes. Judging by their haughty appearance, they should be the mages here.

The disfigured Grace and the unrecognizable Charles looked very out of place among them. Fortunately, Shining's outstanding appearance saved a lot of points, otherwise they would have been blocked directly.

It has to be said that the best is always the best. The waves on the stage in the opera house are lifelike and look exactly like the real ones. The sailboats on the waves also sway from side to side with the waves.

But no matter how good it was, Charles didn't like this kind of place very much. Seeing them singing in weird tones made him feel a little bored.

Just as he was closing his eyes and sorting out some current affairs, the sound of exclamation made Charles wake up.

He opened his eyes and found that the sailboat that was on the stage just now had been split in two, and a strange black fish with eyes all over its body was lying on the waves and roaring crazily.

"It's not right, this special smell of the sea, this monster is real! And it was just pulled out of the sea not long ago." Charles sat up straight subconsciously.

Before the audience could react to what was going on, the actor with white powder on his face raised his staff to fight the monster.

The bright flames illuminated the faces of all the audience. Seeing the easy-going look, Charles relaxed, and said in his heart: "The people in the Western Sea Region are so good at playing, they dare to put this kind of thing on the stage, and they are not afraid of appearing." Is it a surprise?"

The performance is still going on, and the finale is the finale. On the stage, the protagonist kills the strange fish, falls slowly from the air, and pulls the heroine in the water onto the sailboat.

The lights started to brighten, and just when Charles thought everything was over, the corpse of the strange fish suddenly split open, and a puddle of liquid splashed directly on the male protagonist.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, with the sound of piercing, the male protagonist screamed loudly, and was gradually corroded into a pool of rotten flesh.

The entire opera house was silent, and everyone was dumbfounded looking at the male lead who had turned into blood.

Suddenly the heroine moved, she prostrated herself in front of the pool of blood, and sang with that beautiful voice while shedding tears.

Amidst the singing, the curtain fell slowly, and the performance officially ended.

"Papapapa~!" The applause rang out fiercely, and some people even stood up excitedly. They excitedly communicated with their companions. The performance just now was really wonderful.
