Chapter 259 Heading to England
"Hehehe, Charles, you don't understand. Their pain is numb to fear. Only by accepting the blessing of the God of Light can they get rid of all this."
"Don't forget, I didn't coerce anyone. Their joining is voluntary. Our Guangming God Sect doesn't force others to join like those cults."
Looking at the statue of the Pope in front of him, Charles tapped his fingers on his cold prosthetic limb.
"I didn't come to you today to talk about this. I need the British Isle to build a submarine to explore the seabed. The island I explored recently sank. If you want to find clues, you have to go to the seabed."
"No, no, no, I'm just a cooperative relationship with Swan, just like you and me. There is no one who directs the other. You can talk to him about what you need. I, an old man, can't help."
Charles glanced at him suspiciously. He didn't believe that the two were in a cooperative relationship.
"By the way, kid, I haven't given me the information about exploring the island this time."
"Didn't I just say that the island sank, so I have to go to the underwater equipment."
"Oh...that's it...I see, you go, have a good trip." The pope's voice was very gentle and kind, as if he didn't doubt Charles at all.
He walked out of the depressing prayer room. Charles originally thought that the pope had a close relationship with Swan, and it would be better for him to come forward, but now it seems that the pope has no intention of helping.
Thinking of what Swann did, Charles instinctively didn't want to have too much contact with this guy.
This guy has an arrogant personality, and he has recently occupied eleven islands in a row. You can imagine with your ears what they will say when they meet.
But after thinking for a while, Charles decided to contact. Now in the entire Earth Sea, only the British Isles are capable of making submarines.
Charles' telegram was sent immediately, and the other party responded quickly, and his tone was not as aggressive as expected.
"You can just come and find the shipyard by yourself. You also need to find me for such a small matter? Charles, you have not adapted to your status as the governor."
"Going to the British Isles..." Sitting on the sofa, Charles looked at the paper in his hand with a serious expression.
"What happened between him and Julio while I was away?"
The butler next to him leaned his white gloved right hand to his abdomen and arched his body slightly. "The two governors have reached an armistice agreement. Governor Julio will not be allowed to come to the North Sea again, and Governor Swan will not be allowed to expand at will. The time is three years."
"Hmm..." After thinking about it for a while, Charles finally decided to go to the British Isles. The matter of the submarine was very important, and he was really worried if he didn't take it over himself.
He doesn't just need a submarine, the seabed is full of dangers, he needs a machine that can protect itself in the dark seabed.
As for the safety issue, Charles was not too worried. Since Swann had already reached an armistice agreement with Julio, he would not take action against other governors in a short time.
Coupled with the Pope's relationship, there is no need to worry about the future.
"Go and see if the doctor is gone. If he hasn't, let him go with my boat."
"Your Excellency, you probably haven't left yet. The passenger ship to the British Isles departs every seven days."
"Then go and say something to the bandages, let the navy get ready, and we'll set off as soon as possible."
Charles does not intend to take too many crew members this time, after all, this time is not an exploration mission, but a simple transaction.
Hearing that Charles was going to visit other islands, the whole navy took action.
By the third day, they were fully armed and on standby at sea.
On the pier of Hope Island, Charles looked towards the sea. This was the first time he saw the navy of Hope Island head-on, neat steamboats, shiny gun muzzles, and sky-blue navy uniforms.
The thirteen exploration ships of the past have expanded into a regular army.
The sailors standing on the deck looked much more excited than Charles, their eyes were intensely hot and excited.
"What did you tell them? Why are you so excited?"
Standing on a warship with a length of 200 meters, Charles asked Feuerbach on the side
"The main reason is that Hope Island is too remote. The navy has been established for so many years. This is the first mission. The boys are of course excited."
At a glance, Charles saw a total of 20 steamships parked neatly on the sea, and there were also three warships over 200 meters in length.
"It's okay, if you meet pirates or something on the road, let them practice their hands, so that these guys don't get exercise."
"Mr. Charles, are we going to play this time?" Lily standing on Charles' shoulder looked curious.
Squeezing her chubby cheeks with his hands, Charles nodded. "We're going to buy something this time, and then we'll come back with something. If there's no accident in the middle, I can take you to have a good time."
Feuerbach nodded. "Captain, you'd better be careful. The British Isles are not very peaceful now. Since Swann's "Lonka" is undergoing maintenance, other occupied islands have begun to move around."
"It's okay, they rebelled against them, I'll buy my submarine."
Charles knew where he stood, he wasn't leaning on either side, and of course he didn't mind pushing back if Swann's great empire was about to crumble.

On the pier of the crown of the world, Anna, wearing a silk skirt, walked slowly towards the giant ship on the pier with her legs in red high heels.
Those masked laborers nestled in a pile in the dock area didn't even blink their eyes.
Feeling the peeping eyes shot at her, Anna couldn't help but feel happy, she likes the feeling of being stared at by food.
Now as long as she walks by and picks in it, she can take them away directly, just like eating a buffet.
Of course, she's just thinking about it casually, she hasn't had such a bad taste yet.
"Master, all the warships on the island are ready." The former maid walked over and said.
"Get on the boat, let's go." Anna gently stretched out towards the side of the sea, and a tentacle rose up, wrapping around Anna's hand and shaking it gently.
"Master, those Haike tribes who drove the turtle shells and bone boats have already left. They don't seem to want to participate in this matter."
"Hehehe, you run really fast, and you know how to command others to do it. You are quite tall, but you are as timid as a rabbit."
At this moment, the strength on the tentacles suddenly increased, trying to drag Anna into the water.
"Xinxi, don't pull, don't pull, mom doesn't like to touch the sea water."
As several bubbles emerged from the pitch-black water, the strength on the tentacles disappeared.
Anna grabbed the fluorescent tentacle, put it on her lips and kissed it dotingly, then pulled it towards the nearby warship.
"What? Winky, you went to find your father, but your father won't play with you? What a bad father, wait for your mother to scold him."
