Mysteries of the Earthsea

Chapter 222 New Target

In the captain's room of the Narwhal, the oil lamp flickered with the waves. The sound of the waves outside the window kept beating against the hull, showing that the sea area was not calm.

Captain Charles frowned slightly as he looked at the paper in front of him, on which were written various messy messages in Chinese characters. "041, the main island of the Foundation, 003, God Fortan, Dr. K9, XK scene."

Although he didn't have much contact with that foundation member Aaron, Charles still got a lot of important clues, and he wanted to find useful information from these clues.

"Seeing the clothes on your body, I should have guessed that Dr. K9's experiment failed, and she caused the worst possible XK scene." The original words of this Aaron.

Reminiscent of the "disasters" mentioned by those high-hanging praying mantises, and the so-called experimental material Fortan God, Charles felt a sense of ominous foreboding.

"Could it be... Could it be that these guys are studying the Fortan god like other relics before? They are setting foot in the realm of God?"

Suddenly, Charles felt that the Foundation's disappearance made perfect sense.

"XK-level scene... It seems that this should be a catastrophe that will definitely make people have nightmares...."

At this moment, a thought-provoking thought popped up in Charles' mind.

The Foundation and the others are connected to the surface. Behind such a huge organization, there must be the support of the first few powerful countries above. Their power is so great, can they all beat the gods?

He had seen the almost destructive power of hydrogen bombs on TV, and it was hard for Charles to think of any creature that could survive under that power. Could it be that these "gods" were really gods?

Charles' pale side face flickered under the swinging firelight.

The statue of God Futan and the fleshy sphere with various eyes kept flickering in his mind.

What kind of existence are these "gods"? What do they mean to us humans?

"g..."

The sudden sound in his ear made Charles stand up suddenly, gasping for breath with a terrified expression. After careful identification, he realized that the sound just now was just the knocking sound from the bottom of the ship, not those maddening murmurs came back.

Charles didn't think about it any more, he just crumpled the paper in front of him and threw it out from the side window.

This is just his random guess. Whatever the specific situation, the main island of the foundation must be found. No matter what 319 is, as long as it extracts the information in its own mind, everything will be revealed by then.

Charles turned his head and looked to the left side of the table. It was a chart, the one that Aaron had told him before.

On the various sea charts listing islands, there is an island marked in red, which is his next target.

"The main island of the Foundation is also in the North Sea, and it seems that most of the Foundation's previous main activities were also in the North Sea.

Just as Charles was about to pick up a pen and ruler to plan the starting route on the chart, he suddenly stopped.

He quickly compared the drawings he took from the Pope from the side.

Charles soon discovered that the chart given to him by the Pope did not contain the location of the main island of the Foundation.

The main island of the foundation, the importance of this island can be known from the name. Is it true that there is no information left on the New Territories City?

Or, what did that old pope deliberately hide?

Charles felt that this guy's purpose was not pure before, and now his suspicion of the Pope has increased in his heart.

"I got the news of this chart, and I can't let that guy know." Charles secretly made a decision.

Since there is something hidden on the other side, it is not too much to hide some secrets on my side.

Accompanied by flickering lights, Charles began to draw the route.

As a captain and a painter, Charles was very fast. He put away the chart, opened the door and walked outside.

"These are our next sea missions. How do you see it? Is there any room for improvement??" Charles asked the bandages in the cockpit while holding the chart.

Assisting the captain in formulating the voyage plan is also one of the duties of the chief mate.

"Yes." Bandage replied unhurriedly.

"But... we... need to add... manpower..."

"Yeah, to replenish the manpower, the loss this time is a bit heavy." Charles nodded.

Three died, and one escaped, and the one who escaped was his most trusted crew member.

"Captain, have you... have you met... Dipper?" the bandage at the helm suddenly asked.

Charles didn't answer, but asked him back, "How do you know?"

"Inspecting...the deck...I saw...the footprints of the Deep Diver...running up...and didn't...attack us...should...only him..."

"Heh" Charles cast his gaze to the dark sea in front of him, with some kind of emotion in his eyes.

The two stood silently, and after a long time, the bandage spoke first.

"We... want...he to come back..."

"Come back? How come back? He is no longer a human being, and have you forgotten what he did before?"

"He...is...for your own good..."

"For my own good? Turning me into that disgusting monster is also called for my own good? I watched this kid grow up, and now that his wings are hardened, he starts to make decisions for me? It's because of this kid, we The three crew members will die!!"

A hint of anger at Dipper's betrayal appeared on Charles's face, but he suppressed it immediately.

He said again in a low voice: "Those deep divers, I don't think they are the kind of people who help others for free. After becoming a deep diver, perhaps their personality has also changed."

There's never been anything good under the Earthsea except fish, never.

"Then... shall we go back...to find...other...bosun? Or...are you waiting...?"

Thinking of his previous actions to help him, Charles showed a little hesitation in his eyes. After thinking for a few seconds, he said: "I'll go back and find a way, maybe there is some way to convert the deep diver back, if I can Transform him back, and then remove the other two personalities in his head, maybe we can catch that kid back."

Even if he gets angry again, that kid Di Pu has been with him for so many years, he is almost half his son, no matter how hopeless he is, he still wants to try.

Although it sounds impossible, this is Earth Sea. Since it is Earth Sea, what is impossible? Maybe Anna has some way.

Bandage nodded. "What's wrong with your... head...?"

"There is no problem anymore. Not only have I not had any auditory hallucinations recently, but these days, when my sleep quality is the best, there should be no problems."

"That's good……"
