Mysteries of the Earthsea

Chapter 48: Turn on the sun

   You know that something is like a bullet, and it’s useless if you use it once? "

   "I only need one, can you get it here?" Charles said urgently.

   The skeleton girl put her arms around her chest and thought. "Um...just one, let me think..."

A few seconds after coming over, she patted her hands, "By the way, I heard that the shark intercepted a batch of goods some time ago. There is a mirror box in it. If you use it in a hurry, I can buy you one with a price increase of 40,000 echoes. I make you money, this thing is not cheap."

   "No problem! Please give me one right away."

   Seeing Charles agreed so quickly, Skeleton suddenly felt a little upset, and the price was a bit cheaper.

   "Luna help me entertain this friend well, I will go back as soon as I go." As soon as the skeleton girl turned and left, a girl in tulle on the bar crawled over like a kitten.

   The alluring flesh and blood in front of him is not as anxious as Charles's heart. At this time, he is very uneasy.

   Generally speaking, the only thing that can turn a vampire into ashes is sunlight, but sunlight should not be pretended to be. This illogical land sea has given Charles too many surprises, and he is not sure.

   "Man~, why are your legs shaking so badly? Are you being patient?" The tulle girl said, she was about to lie down in Charles's arms.

   Charles, who was irritable, lifted his palm with his finger ring, and pushed her out directly.

   Gleeful Audrick swooped to cover her with a cloak, covered her mouth with his hand, showing two blood-sucking fangs, biting down against the white neck h, and the bare feet outside the cloak kept trembling.

   In the next period of time, Charles experienced what it means to live like years.

   Skeleton Girl came back half an hour later, holding a mirror box exactly like that on the piece of paper in her hand.

   Charles quickly and urgently is about to open.

   "Wait! Captain!!! Wait for me to get out first!!" Audrick, full of blood, rushed toward the door embarrassedly.

   Charles pressed the lid with trembling hands, breathing a little shortly.

   "You turn it on now?? Are you a toy with 40,000 echoes?" Skeleton girl widened her eyes.

   "Swipe!!!" As the box opened, the dazzling light instantly illuminated the entire bar.

   The light in the box is not like the scorching sun in summer, but like the sunlight in winter. It is warm and comfortable when shining on the body, and it makes people feel sleepy.

   Charles' previous anxiety turned into tranquility at this moment, feeling the sun shining on his skin. He has never felt so close to home.

   This dazzling light came and went quickly. In just three seconds, the brightness in the bar returned to before.

   The men and women in the bar were quiet for a second or two before returning to the previous noisy environment.

   Smelling the mites killed on his clothes, Charles smiled faintly, tears falling from the corners of his eyes.

   Inside the box is real sunlight, the sunlight from the sun, which is also a signpost on Charles's way home.

   "Seal's friends are really rich. They play with mirror boxes as toys. Hey, do you lack women? How about me?" The skeleton girl ran back to the bar and continued to adjust the cocktails.

   Charles, who was holding the mirror box, sniffed, and asked the skeleton woman, "Where did this thing come from?"

   "Didn't I tell you? Wang will ship a batch of goods every half month."

   "No, I mean where did you get the stuff inside?"

   Skeleton Girl's shaking hip flask stopped, her face showing a dignified look. "What are you going to do? The guys who wanted to grab business from the king before, but he used a harpoon to feed the sharks."

   "I don't want to steal his business, I just want to know the source of this sunshine."

   "Isn't that the same? If you change to you, you will tell others? Do you know how much money this business has made for the king? For the sake of the seal, I advise you not to go to death."

   But Charles did not give up, and asked again: "When does he usually show up?"

   Skeleton Girl sighed, "The king of the auction will usually appear after half a month."

   Charles' fingers tapped quickly on the bar. "He is the king of Sodom? The whole Sodom belongs to him???"

"Yes, not only Sodom, he is very powerful, he has more than a dozen large ships of hundreds of meters, and the pirates in this area of ​​the North Sea must obey him, and even the island governors must be taboo. ."

   Charles sat there thoughtfully with a solemn expression.

   "Don't be stunned, give the money quickly." The skeleton woman said with her hands on her hips.

   Charles was supported by Audrick back to the bed, but the pain of the wound could not hide his doubts.

   A thought popped out in his mind. If the so-called king had a way to the surface, why didn't he go up, instead staying in the dark underground?

   Is it easy to become a superior person on the surface by relying on various resources on the surface?

   Or does this kind of sunlight come from the sun at all?

   Whatever the reason, Charles decided to contact him. This is the only clue he has found so far.

   Just as he was thinking of various things in his mind, the second officer Kronner rushed in. "Captain, I got the old man's information from the local snake!"

"How do you say?" Charles got up from the bed~www.wuxiahere.com~Kernona hesitated for a while and said: "Captain, I spent a lot of money to inquire about this news. Would you like to reimburse me? ."

   "No problem, you hurry up."

"Well, people nearby say that this old man has been here for a long time. No one knows when he came here. Most of the time when pirates came, he was here to treat illnesses and save people. No matter how serious the injuries were in his hands It can be cured. This person is so detailed, he is a doctor, and there are no other pirates to make trouble, after all, no one can guarantee that he will not be injured in the future."

   "So..." Charles thoughtfully.

   "Captain, why do you want to inquire about his background? Isn't it just a doctor?" Kenona asked curiously.

   "Don't you think that a ship doctor is missing on the Narwhal?"

   Kenona opened his mouth slightly, his expression a little surprised. "You originally wanted to—"

   Just when he said this, the door of the door was pushed open, and the doctor limped in from outside. "Undress and change dressing."

   Seeing Charles winking at himself, Kenona quickly left.

   The doctor put a bandage on Charles' chest with the iron hand, exposing Charles's wounded chest, and the wound that should have healed was bleeding outward again.

   "Is it too slow to run around so badly?"

   After the doctor evenly spread a layer of black powder on the wound, he took it off with his iron hand, and a machine similar to a stapler appeared on it. He directly ordered the thing against Charles's wound.

   Charles didn't feel any pain, and it felt strange to see his flesh and skin being connected by metal rivets.
