Chapter 141 Kede's Secret

On the barren plain, Charles walked blindly, his crew disappeared, and he was alone.

He himself didn't know how long he had walked or how long he would have to walk, but a certain force kept him moving forward.

Suddenly a red anti-theft door with an inverted blessing appeared in front of him. It was the door of his house.

Excitement appeared on Char's numb face, and he rushed over excitedly, "I'm going back! I found it!"

The door opened, but there was nothing inside the door, not even pure darkness, only endless nothingness.

Charles shook his body violently and woke up from the nightmare.

He found that there was a book in front of him, and he was holding a pen in his hand, and he was writing something on it.

"Dude, you're having nightmares again, wait for me, I'll give you my body after I finish writing the end of this chapter."

When his body returned to Charles' hands again, he pushed open the door and walked to the deck. There is still nothing on the dark sea, and they are still on their way to the new land of light

Charles sighed. He could understand why he had this dream. He had never been afraid of such danger before, but when he was about to go home, he actually felt a little scared.

What if there is no exit at the position marked on the chart? What if the exit is another world? All kinds of thoughts kept running through Charles' mind, making him feel upset.

"Shtunggli grah" ""nn fhhui y!!"

Suddenly, a whisper sounded in his ears, which made Charles' eardrums tingle. "Fuck!"

With bruised veins on his face, Charles raised his prosthetic leg and hit it on his forehead, trying to use the pain to offset the restlessness in his heart.

After two consecutive blows, the skin on Charles' head was broken and began to bleed. When he hit the third time, an iron hand next to him stretched out and blocked it.

It was the doctor's prosthetic limb, and he handed over a cup of dark green medicine.

Charles didn't say anything, he raised his head and drank it. The extremely bitter taste made Charles' facial features almost wrinkle together. However, the potion was effective, and the whispering in Charles' ears became much quieter.

"Thank you." Charles handed over the glass.

"Just to remind you, this is the last potion I can prepare, and your spirit is breaking down. Although I am a doctor, I can no longer understand your situation, and I don't know how long you can last. "

"The voyage is about to end, and there are still three days at most. After three days, I will never go to sea again."

"Hmph." The doctor was full of disbelief. "Regardless of whether you go out to sea or not, other people on the ship have already begun to show mild scurvy symptoms. If you find that ghost place without island supplements, everyone on the ship will die. Don't forget that your job is the captain. , you must be responsible for the lives of all crew members."

Before Charles could speak, the doctor limped towards the cabin.

Charles suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and began to patrol the Narwhal as usual.

The crew members could also feel their own captain's emotions, and everyone worked hard to do their own tasks well, for fear of running into his bad luck at this time.

Three days, two days, one day, as the distance got closer, but the sea was still dark, Charles became more and more restless.

When the last day came, Charles sat in the cabin and drew landscapes, but the more he painted, the uglier he felt.

"Bang!" The drawing board was slammed against the wall by Charles, and the mixed paints on the color board were scattered everywhere.

With a distorted expression on his face, Charles broke his hands, broke the brush into two sections, and threw it directly on the ground.

Frowning, he stood up, loaded the gun, and planned a new round of inspection. But someone stopped him.

"Have a drink with me." Ke De, who had dark circles on his eyes and looked extremely haggard, stood in front of Charles with two bottles of wine.

Charles and Ke De have never been friends, the relationship between the two is just to use each other, but if there is anyone who can understand Charles' mood best, the old man in front of him is the only one.

"Okay." Charles reached out and took the bottle in Ke De's hand.

The two stood on the deck and chatted while drinking wine.

"Charles, do you know? I haven't slept in the past few days, and my heart is really disturbed."

"I can tell."

"Charles, you said that the Bright Land must exist?" There was a trace of hesitation hidden in Ke De's bloodshot eyes.

"Why do you ask that? This doesn't seem like something a pious believer should ask."

Ke De opened his mouth to say something, but seemed to be frightened by his own words, and paused for a long time before lowering his voice and speaking.

"What if there is no bright place? What if there is nothing there, maybe the chart is fake?"

"It exists, I have been there, in fact, I came from that place."

Ke De stared at Charles for a long time, and suddenly laughed. "Charles, I believe you, do it!"

Charles raised his head and took a sip of alcohol, and the messy thoughts in his mind eased a lot.

You take a sip and I go down, half of the wine in the bottle goes down, I don’t know if I’m really drunk or fake drunk, Ke De leaned over with a drunken face, and patted Charles’ prosthetic limb with his hands indiscriminately.

"Charles, I have a secret, I'll tell you now, don't tell anyone else."

"you say."

Ke De put his mouth full of alcohol into Charles's ear and said: "Actually, thirty years ago, when the blessing ceremony of the God of Light was held in the Church of Light, I saw so many people die. I was afraid, so I thought Way to hide in secret, and did not accept the blessing ceremony."

Charles didn't answer, took a sip of his wine, and waited for him to continue.

"Think about it, how painful it is for them to insert such thick three steel nails into their heads. I can't forget the screams of those people until now. Tell me, is it only fools who do this? It's a smart person, do you know how easy it is for a smart person to be in a group of fools? Why should I be a fool?"

Charles nibbled on his bottle with a wine bottle, "You don't need to tell me, I've already seen it."

"Impossible!" The dizzy Ke De swung the wine bottle, almost hitting Charles.

"I...I've been hiding this secret for so many years, how could you... hiccup... now!"

"I've known you for so long, how many times have you lied to me? Since the first time you lied to me in Sodom, I have suspected you."

Charles saw a wriggling black shadow on the sea in the distance, and he naturally left his sight.

Ke De's body slid along the side of the ship and sat on the deck. Sitting on the deck, he yelled like a drunkard, and his voice spread far and wide in the open sea.

"No matter how pious those fools are, what's the use of holding those disgusting rituals? In the end, it wasn't me, an ordinary person who didn't receive the blessing, who found the Land of Light!"

"When I go back, I will open the eyelids of those stubborn old things and let them take a closer look!! Who!! is the most devout believer of the God of Light!!"
