Chapter 228 The King
"7 meters, and have you seen it?"
Charles immediately understood that the other party was not the kind of god in his heart, they might just be a group of aboriginals.
No wonder the idol boss said that the gods would die, so it made sense.
Charles knew that even if the other party was not a god, they should still have some strength to gain a foothold in this sea of land, but the gods of the Haike tribe instantly lost their status in his heart by countless times.
Ajino next to him seemed to be able to see through Charles' mind, and said softly after a slight smile: "Mr. Charles, do you feel that you are completely different from the gods in the North Sea?"
Charles looked at the wine glass in his hand and said nothing. Although he felt that those things were just aboriginals, he didn't want to refute anything, and he didn't believe in these messy cults, so there was no need to fight against them in the land of the Heke tribe just to win some quick words.
"I know, the God of Light, the God of Ftan, the Giant Bird of Suffering, the All-Seeing Eye, and various other names, but no matter how famous their gods are, no matter how omniscient and omnipotent they are, they really have something to do with their gods. Contact? Or, is their belief really important to their god?"
Glancing at the king who was still talking, Aguino continued to explain.
"Our gods are not, even if they are not omnipotent, even if they will die, but they are by our side, they care about us, they have mercy on us."
"Then are your gods still gods? Or are they just a group of ordinary island natives?"
"Captain Charles, what is God in your mind?"
This similar philosophical question is a bit beyond the scope of Charles' knowledge, he did not speak, and waited for Aguino to continue.
"God should be a higher-level concept, not a low-level belief born of pure fear. It seems to me that it is very foolish to regard unknown things in the water as gods."
"Maybe you don't understand it now, but when you see our gods, you will understand."
Charles looked at the giant in front of him in surprise. Is the person who just said this really a guy who believes in a cult?
Aguino didn't speak anymore, because the king over there had finished speaking.
Charles also pulled his thoughts away from the conversation just now, and looked up to the front.
The king raised the golden wine glass in his hand, "To our original god, Paide, who will be peaceful forever in another world."
Charles followed the others and raised the cup in front of him, taking a sip.
The taste of the wine is unexpectedly familiar. This is Hope Island's banana wine.
"Captain Charles, this wine comes from the remote Hope Island. It is very expensive. It is said that there is flowing gold in the Sea of Misty."
"Puff" a suffocated laughter came out of Charles' pocket.
Charles reached into his pocket and pressed it, and raised his glass to Aguino, "It's really different."
The banquet was still going on, and the flamboyantly dressed king didn't intend to communicate with Charles, and talked with the few people around him with a smile on his face.
Charles was not in a hurry and just ate like this. If the other party cared too much about him, then he was really worried that this was a grand banquet.
Most of the island's banquets are at night, and it is rare for Broken Heart Island to have a banquet in the morning.
The banquet ended while the guests were pushing and changing glasses, Charles didn't leave, he knew that the other party called him definitely not to eat him a part of the banquet.
The servants silently stepped forward and began to clean up the dishes. The long table with a length of more than 30 meters had been cleared out. Charles, who was sitting in the corner, saw the king of Heartbroken Island looking at him for the first time for the first time.
As soon as he opened his mouth, Charles was slightly surprised, "Captain Charles, the wine on your island is very good. It tastes different, but the price is too expensive."
This guy knows I'm the governor of Hope Island?
Charles said calmly: "You're welcome, it's just that the material is a bit special. If you need it, I can send someone to send a boat over."
"Hehehe, that's not necessary. Although it is expensive, I can still afford it as the owner of an island. Now I have a question in my mind. As the king of a prosperous island, why did you travel all the way to the sea of mist?"
"You can ask the Prophet about this matter, he knows everything about me."
Charles didn't want the other party to snatch the right to speak, and said again: "Your people said that in order to thank me for my help, they wanted to give me a gift. Regarding this, I would like to replace the gift with an inquiry. Please allow your Majesty. "
The King of Broken Heart Island touched the red ring in his hand. "what is the problem?"
"Deep Diver, these guys live so close, the Hekers should know their intelligence very well, right?"
"That's right, those dregs are a hidden danger for all the Haike people. We have fought each other for hundreds of years, and we are very familiar with their habits, threats and cruelty."
"Then if a human suddenly becomes a deep diver, is there any way to change back."
The king's expression was a little surprised, as if he was surprised that the other party would ask such a question.
"You don't need to ask others this question, I can help you answer it, the answer is no."
Charles' heart sank, so that kid Dipper really can't come back? "Why not? Since it is possible to transform from a human into a deep diver, it should also be possible to transform from a deep diver back into a human being."
"You guessed it wrong. No one becomes a deep diver. They have always been deep divers. They are just deep divers at different stages. The child form of deep divers is human. Some sort of stimulation, and they metamorphose into adult deep divers."
"Just like the sturgeons that spawn in a specific area from the South China Sea to the North Sea, those dregs hiding in the sea must rely on humans to reproduce. If a pregnant woman escapes, there may be a problem that the larvae of deep divers will be adopted by humans occur."
This is very bad news for Charles, which means that Dipper will never be able to change back.
Dipper's face that was always full of vigor appeared in his mind, and Charles slowly clenched his hands, his good mood suddenly turned into a bad mood.
This is not just a pity for the loss of a strong teammate. He has been in Earthsea for so many years, and Dipper is one of the few who can talk.
"Captain Charles, you have a friend who has become a deep-sea hunter? That's really unfortunate."
Charles shook his head and stood up. "Your Majesty, thank you for your clarification. Now that the banquet is over, I will also take my leave."
"Don't worry, I said I will give you a gift, since it's all here, take it first."
