Chapter 518 Island
Anna woke up faintly. She saw her lover standing by the window, looking out into the bright sunlight.
She walked on the catwalk and gently pressed against his back, "What's wrong? You found that the sun has faded again?"
"No, look at the sea over there, we have already reached the East Sea."
Anna, with her mind on Charles' shoulder, looked along his fingers, and she found a strange scene on the sea surface. The dark green sea water and the dark brown sea water magically appeared in parallel.
The sea water that should have merged with each other quietly stayed in its place like two fields.
"It's amazing, the sea water in the East China Sea is actually different from other places."
"I read it on the Internet before, and this kind of situation generally only occurs when the specific gravity is different, such as the hedging between fresh water and sea water at the sea estuary."
"The seawater in the East China Sea either has a much higher salt content than other sea areas, or it has a much lower salt content."
"Hehe, look, such an interesting world is not more interesting than the surface? You gave up too late. If you gave up early, our honeymoon trip around the world might have ended." Anna said jokingly.
Charles turned to look at her, "Anna, if I had given up early, I would never have met you."
"That's true. If you don't go to that island, then I will cease to exist." Anna leaned forward, kissed Charles for a while, and then let go.
She held Charles' face in her hands and studied it carefully.
"It's been so long, haven't you seen enough?" Charles showed a smile on his face, and his hands began to be dishonest.
Faced with the other party's intimacy, Anna did not refuse. She reached out and pulled out the red spider from Charles' eye socket, playing with it and said, "Do you think we look like Adam and Eve?"
"When Adam was sleeping, God took a rib from him and made Eve out of that bone. Eve came from Adam's rib, and I came from your mind."
Charles leaned against Anna's neck and took a light breath. "Then they can't compare with us. Other people's Eve steals apples at most, but our family's Eve can eat people."
Hearing this, Anna frowned slightly, "What? It's been so long and you haven't gotten used to it? Isn't it just eating a few people? There are more people who died in the relic laboratory than I ate."
Charles raised his head and looked at her tenderly, "I don't mean that, I just think it would be best if you can change your eating habits."
Anna pushed him away with a little force, turned around and began to put on her clothes. She complained impatiently: "It's true, the husband and wife have a little problem with each other, just get along with each other."
Charles laughed dumbfounded when he heard this, "Is cannibalism a minor problem?"
"Huh? Want to talk to me about this? I haven't found the time to have a good chat with you about your promiscuity."
After Charles raised his hands as a gesture of surrender, he turned and sat on the stool, and began to deal with the affairs of Hope Island.
A telegraph tower stands on the fleet below the airship, which can let Charles know things thousands of miles away through the telegraph office between the islands.
"Save your energy. Your previous concern was all about finding the surface. Don't be an expert to point out the layman. Let Leonardo play freely. Maybe some civil servants of Hope Island are cursing behind their backs, the dog governor What kind of bullshit order is it?"
"Have I done it well before? Besides, you have to do good or bad things, right? You can learn from it. Since Hope Island will be our home in the future, we need to maintain it ourselves." Charles carefully looked at his hands Telegram.
"By the way, Charles, your chief engineer, James, has been on guard against me. Recently, he has been sneaking some moths behind his back. He seems to hate me."
Charles turned his head, glanced at Anna's fair and slender back, and continued to look at the telegram in his hand.
"If you don't like it, just hate it. It's fine for the two of you to see each other less in the future. People are not Echo Coins. There is no one that everyone likes."
"Who is your wife? Don't even try to coax her. Go to bed with James tomorrow, scumbag."
The well-dressed Anna gave Charles a white look, and as she clapped her hands lightly, Shining appeared in front of her in an instant.
Anna doesn't have to stay in the boring airship with Charles every day, she is accompanied by Shining, she can go wherever she wants, and usually she will only come back when needed.
"Anna, help me go to Hope Island and check if there is any problem with the protection."
"What are you afraid of, those octopus heads dare to steal our home, then you go and steal their home, just exchange it for one at the limit." Anna said lightly on Shining's shoulder, and she disappeared in front of Charles in an instant .
After quickly dealing with some choices, Charles leaned his head back on the armchair, thinking about the things he might encounter soon.
The East China Sea has arrived, and they will soon arrive at the headquarters of the Fortan Sect. Although this time is a transaction, and neither side wants to start a war in this world.
But just in case, you still need to make some preparations.
"It's really troublesome... It's better to explore the island before. I hope this thing is over, and I can calm down for a while."
Charles stood up and walked towards the door. He was not on the Narwhal now, and he didn't need to think about such things alone.
As the governor, there are people who can help him think of countermeasures, and he only needs to make the final choice to execute or not.
When he sat back in his room again, there were already various proposals in front of him for him to choose from.
"Give up some of the trade benefits and hire exploration ships from other islands as cannon fodder? That's a good idea, but after being robbed by the sun, how much can the remaining active exploration ships save..."
Just when Charles was thinking about this question with his brows furrowed, an excited Lily squeezed in through the crack of the door, "Mr. Charles, there is a new island! This time the island is different! Curious, there is an island on it. For those big, long legs!"
"Island? Maybe you can go and see how many exploration ships are left on it..."
Charles walked to the window, poked his head out and looked down.
An island appeared obliquely above the airship. Unlike other islands that were either mountainous or plain, this island was very peculiar.
It is completely square, and in the center of the island stands a humanoid statue that occupies half of the entire island.
Only half of the statue is left, so it is impossible to tell whose statue it is. It is like a huge mountain with a metallic luster shining under the sunlight.
Charles counted from the bookcase in the side, and finally took out a book, opened it and began to search. "According to the current coordinates, the name of this island should be Iron Image Island."
