Mysteries of the Earthsea

Chapter 515 Tragedy

Seeing that something was wrong, Dongna picked up the remaining apples, pulled Nini and was about to leave.

However, at this moment, the child suddenly "clanged" and fell straight on the deck.

Seeing this scene, the howling woman next to her immediately came to her senses, and rushed ashore regardless of the pairs of eyes staring at her in the alley.

She threw herself directly in front of Dongna who was closest to her, snatched two apples viciously with her big hands covered in dirt inside her nails, and ran towards the deck again.

"Stop for me!! You fucking stand for me! Do you hear me!!"

Completely ignoring the yelling of the fat sheriff, the woman frantically gnawed a few big mouthfuls of apples and chewed vigorously, then opened her child's mouth, and passed the chewed apple crumbs.

"Son of a bitch, I'm a magistrate now! How dare you disobey me!" The fat man raised his gun as he spoke, aiming his aim at her head.

The man next to him opened his hands and stood in front of his wife, crying anxiously: "Your Majesty, please spare us! We haven't had a decent bite for several days! My child Passed out from hunger."

Hearing him addressing himself as Your Excellency the Magistrate, the fat man showed a hint of joy on his face, and then quickly took it back.

"Cough~ You're sensible, I told you that looting is prohibited in the territory I manage, do you hear that? Whoever is disobedient, I killed him with a single shot, and I am now a magistrate!"

Donna walked up to the fat man anxiously, and said to him: "Mr. Police Officer, this can't just be left alone. What she took away is mine. I know she is suffering, but at least she should pay something, right?" ?”

The bored fat man reached out and took an apple from Dongna's arms, then pushed her away forcefully. "Go away, don't delay this police officer's investigation of the case."

He bit the apple in his hand, and asked the captain's man, "Where are you from?"

After carefully casting a glance at the woman who was still feeding his son, the man quickly replied: "Our family is from Mochen Island,"

"Mochen Island? Then why don't you stay on your own island and run around?"

Hearing this, the man lost his temper immediately, and said in a broken voice, "I can't stay here, too many people have been killed by the light in the sky. It was alright in the first few days, but then they started to rot. Then a murderous plague appeared on the island, and the rest of the people almost died..."

Hearing the tragedies in the world in his words, the eyes of both sellers and shoppers in the alley suddenly became very dark, and the alley seemed quiet.

Because of the need to prevent spore powder, most people on this island are tightly packed, so there are still a lot of people alive, and most of the deaths are due to the collapse of the crown of the world.

But not any island can be as lucky as the crown of the world, and it is not uncommon for other islands to die completely. I just heard about it before, but I didn't expect to meet the rightful owner this time.

"Can you imagine? The entire pier is full of rotting dead people, and the stench of corpses is flowing everywhere! The whole island smells of corpses!!"

"Why is it so difficult to live! What did we do wrong! The death light in the sky wants to do this to us!" Speaking of this, the man prostrated himself on the deck and howled loudly.

"I remember that there are millions of people in Mochen Island, right? They all died at once, it's too tragic." The fat sheriff said with a sigh, then threw the apple core in his mouth into his mouth, chewed and swallowed down.

He pointed in the direction of the pier with his fat finger, "Forget it, don't cry, I won't punish you, our boss said, now there is a shortage of people on the island, you go to the pier to register, they will give you a job Your food, let you survive."

Hope suddenly lit up in the man's eyes, and after thanking the fat man in gratitude, he sailed away with the last bit of strength.

As the small fishing boat slowly drove towards the pier next to it, the alley regained its calm, and they were each doing their own thing.

Although the person left, the topic that was raised did not disappear, and the chattering voice of selling things nearby reached Nini's ears.

"This family is not bad. At least they are lucky to have escaped from such a horrible place. The whole island is dead. This is really tragic."

"I'll tell you more than that. My younger brother works in the telegraph office. I heard that there are more than one cases where the entire island is extinct. With the help of Shining God, basically any island with living people can receive seeds. If the telegraph tower hasn’t been built up to now, there probably won’t be any living people left.”

"As soon as the death light came out, everything came out. I also heard that there were many living people on an island in the East China Sea, but I heard that something in the sea went ashore and ate up the rest. .”

"Hey, the dead are all dead, and the living are not much better. Have you heard that there were more than a dozen people who jumped into the sea at the pier yesterday, and some even jumped with their children in their arms. The whole family died and the only ones left Their."

"Sometimes, I really don't know whether it's better to live or die. My husband was also killed by death light. If I didn't have two children to raise, I would also want to leave."

"Don't think so much, buy a portrait of Shining God from me and put it in the room, and pray to her that she will bless you."

Listening to what they said, Nini's eyes were a little red, and she felt panicked in her heart. When she turned her head, she saw her mother scolding something viciously in a low voice.

I don't know whether to scold the fat sheriff or the family who just robbed her apple.

She gently tugged at her sleeve with her hand. "Mom, they are so pitiful..."

"Who is not pitiful in the sea now? Can you steal other people's things if you are pitiful?"

After Dongna finished speaking, she took the remaining two apples and dragged her daughter to the other side of the alley to continue selling.

After waiting until evening, a crew member exchanged the remaining two apples with three bags of broken biscuits. Donna didn't care about the broken biscuits, as long as they could be eaten.

When the two mother and daughter came to their own small room in the dock area, Dongna quickly drew the curtains and closed the door.

Bring a pot of boiling water to a boil, put crushed biscuits in it, add a little dried fish and kelp, and a pot of delicious porridge is ready.

The two happily licked the pots and jars clean. It is a blessing that the crown of the world can eat enough.

Dong Na looked at her daughter in front of her, and suddenly felt extremely wronged when she remembered what happened during the day.

"I'm sorry, daughter, if I can help you find a new father, maybe no one will bully us so casually, but no one takes a fancy to me."

Nini wiped the tears on her mother's face with her hands distressedly, "Mom, don't cry, it's okay, we don't want the protection of our new father, we are still Winky, Winky will protect us."

Dongna sniffed, with a dumbfounding smile on her face, "That's right, Shining God will protect us, come on, take out your picture, let's pray to Shining God, Shining is a good god, God of hope."
