Mysteries of the Earthsea

Chapter 140 Crown

"Although there are few people on the island of the crown of the world, there are also some nobles. Those people live on top of the big mushroom, manage all the farmers below, and they also collect taxes."

On the street with various mushrooms, Anna said while walking with the maid.

"Then don't they use the lives of these farmers to make money? They are really too dark."

Anna nodded in agreement. "That's right, these people are really bad, and such a huge profit should be given to me."

With her servants, Anna walked along this road.

There are rickshaws for tourists in the port area, but she didn't take them. She needs to measure her new territory with her feet.

There are not all fields under the crown of the world. There are some low rooms between the fields, which are the residences of the farmers.

Anna walked in and found that it was empty and there was no one there except for some mushrooms growing in the corners.

Only the vague coughing sounds in those houses prove that this is not a dead village.

Anna passed through the village and continued to walk towards the end of the street.

The island was huge, and Anna walked for three hours before arriving at the bottom of the crown of the world. A large wooden basket the size of a small room was hung under the huge mushroom, and thick ropes stretched all the way up.

"I need to go up. I have something important to see your governor." Facing Heipi who was guarding the elevator, Anna took out a badge of He Fangdao and said directly in a commanding tone.

Seeing Anna's temperament and attire, as well as the servants behind her, those guys in black uniforms didn't dare to stop them, and hurriedly opened the elevator door.

Following dozens of strong men shouting chant and pushing the winch, the big wooden basket carrying Anna slowly rose upwards.

Following a hole cut by the crown of the world, the basket slowly came to the umbrella of the crown of the world.

Anna felt the sweet smell disappear from the air.

The umbrella of the crown of the world seems to have some kind of magical power. While isolating the spores, it also isolates the suffering and poverty below.

A quiet and peaceful town appeared in front of Anna. Under the bright street lamps, the people in the town were all well-dressed, which was in stark contrast to the lifeless rural villages below.

Just then, a fluffy puppy ran to Anna's feet and squatted down, looking at her with those big eyes.

A boy with a tie around his neck ran over. He first apologized generously to Anna, and then took out a rope to mark the dog's collar. "Goodbye, sister."

Watching the boy leave with the puppy, Anna closed her eyes and took a deep breath, "What a wonderful place with outstanding people, I'm a little hungry."

After scrutinizing it carefully for a long time, Anna raised her feet and walked towards the largest building in the town, which was the Governor's Mansion, the crown of the world.

The noble temperament on Anna played a role, and soon, he was led into the living room where he entertained guests.

She looked around at the exaggerated decorations, and shook her head in disappointment. "I don't like this decoration style, Martha, please remember, everything in this room has to be replaced."

"Okay, master, I've made a note."

While the master and servant were talking, a white-haired butler came in, "Governor Tucker just has time now, you can come here."

Anna took it to a bedroom and saw Tucker lying on the bed drinking milk.

Tucker is a tall and strong young man, but he has an unexpectedly good face.

Smelling the familiar smell in the air, and taking another look at the messy sheets, Anna frowned slightly.

"Which island are you from? If you're just here to buy food, just talk to the people below. Why do you have to see me, tell me quickly, I still have important things to do."

Tucker drank the milk with his head back, put the cup on the table and lay back on the bed again.

"I'm not looking for the governor's food, but about your island."

Listening to the sweet female voice, Tucker raised his head and looked at Anna. When he saw Anna's charming eyes on the tulle, his eyes lit up immediately. "Make an offer and stay on my island."

There was a hint of a smile in Anna's eyes. "As long as you can agree to my request, then I will agree to your request."

"Oh?" Tucker got excited, lifted the quilt covering his body, and walked in front of Anna naked.

"It's interesting, but no one from other islands has come to me for a long time. Who are you doing for??"

"My lord governor, the matter to be discussed next is very important. Don't you think there are too many people here?" Anna said to the servants serving around and the vigilant guards.

Tucker waved his fat hand, and the crowd in the room retreated respectfully, and the maids behind Anna also retreated.

Anna's eyes began to change rapidly, and her voice suddenly became extremely severe. "Is it really appropriate for you to stand in front of your own sister and talk like this?"

Tucker's eyes became confused, but as a ring on his left thumb shone red, his expression quickly regained consciousness, "Are you modifying my memory?"

"Pfft..." A forearm-long wooden thorn shot out from under the bed with an afterimage, and instantly penetrated into Anna's chest.

Anna's delicate face collapsed in an instant, and the huge tentacle monster screamed and fled to the outside.

Several groups of black shadows flew out of the bed in an instant, and quickly followed.

Hearing the sound of fighting outside the door and the screams of monsters, Tucker showed a trace of disdain, turned and walked towards his bed.

"Really, anyone dares to come here to trouble me. Although the crown of the world is not big, it is still a living island. Do you really think I am unprepared?"

As soon as Tucker finished speaking, he heard movement behind him. When he turned around and saw the person coming, he shouted impatiently: "Sister!! What's wrong with me playing with a woman? Do you have to stare so hard?"

"Have you forgotten the promise you made to your father back then? What have you been doing all these years!" Anna, who was safe and sound, stood there and looked at him with disgust.

"What's the matter? My father has been dead for five years!! I am the governor of this island! Get out now!!" Tucker shouted excitedly.

"Just keep messing around like this, one day you will die in a woman's belly." Anna left with a look of hatred.

"That's none of your business! You old woman who can't get married!!" Tucker waved his hands excitedly behind him, not noticing at all that there was a shallow crack on his index finger ring.

As soon as Anna walked out the door, she saw her maids carrying the corpses. They were empty-handed before, and they were holding all kinds of weird relics in their hands.

Among them were the servants just now, and some guys in black cloaks, their eyes were full of astonishment and fear.

"Master, congratulations, this island is already yours." Martha greeted her with a smile.

Anna stretched her waist and shook her head. "Not yet. A governor of an island has too many relationships involved. To occupy other people's territory, we have to manage it slowly. Hey, I don't know what's going on with Charles."
