Chapter 368
Hearing Lily's voice, Charles in the room put down the documents in his hand, put her in his palm and stroked her gently. "Don't think so much, there is always a way, trust me."
Charles stroked Lily's body with his hand. The soft and furry little mouse in the past was no longer there. He could clearly feel the bones under Lily's skin.
"Mr. Charles, I don't dare to look in the mirror now, am I ugly now?"
"No. You are still our lovely little Lily." Charles bowed his head and kissed her sunken cheek. "Are you hungry? Would you like something to eat?"
"I'm not hungry, I'm a little sleepy now... I'll sleep first." After Lily finished speaking, her eyes slowly closed, and her limbs gradually softened.
Seeing this scene, Charles quickly licked his finger and placed it in front of Lily's nose in fear. He was relieved when he found that there was still a faint sound of breathing.
He put Lily on the pillow with the softest voice, and walked lightly to the balcony.
"You guys are staring at your boss, if there is anything unusual, please notify me immediately, do you understand?" Charles ordered to a few brown-haired mice in the corner.
Seeing the group of rats nodding vigorously at him, Charles jumped outside with one hand on the balcony railing.
Charles didn't go anywhere else, and quickly came to the church of the God of Light.
As soon as he walked in, Charles saw the kind-hearted Pope surrounded by a dozen cute boys and girls listening to him tell stories. These children were the children who sang before.
When the Pope saw Charles approaching, he smiled and took the child off his lap. "Children, go and play by yourself."
Charles asked straight to the point: "Have you found a solution here?"
"Unfortunately, no. If there is, I will definitely notify you as soon as possible. After all, I also want you to leave as soon as possible."
Charles' face became very ugly, and he said to the Pope again: "Don't you claim that the God of Light is omniscient and omnipotent? You can't even do this?"
"The God of Light is omnipotent, but it doesn't mean that the servants who serve him are also omnipotent. You are making things difficult for others. Of course, there is another way, that is, let's go to sea as soon as possible, and let the God of Light rescue you after we unseal the God of Light. Mouse, the God of Light loves the world, so he will definitely agree."
Charles sneered, "Stop thinking about lying to me, unless Lily gets treatment, otherwise I won't step into the sea, don't forget our contract."
The church sighed regretfully, and he slowly looked up at the colorful mythical relief above his head.
"To be honest, if I had a choice, I really don't want to cooperate with you. You are too difficult to get along with. You always understand everything you see, but the world is not as simple as what you see."
"Papa~!" He clapped his hands, and a strong black-robed monk came over, dragging a pink brain with tentacles, which was so wet that it looked like it was picked up from the water of
With a slight lift of the church's hand, the brain instantly split into two halves, and a piece of black paper inside floated in front of Charles.
"Charles has found the location of the door, they are about to leave, please send someone to stop it immediately." Seeing this message, Charles tensed up, and someone was tipping off the news.
"See, some people don't want us to go up. Whether it's personnel or telegrams, I'm sending people to monitor it. The Light God Sect has paid no less than you in this regard. That's why I let you set sail as soon as possible. , we really can’t afford to wait.”
Charles hesitated, he didn't know if this was true or not. "Who sent this thing? Have you caught it?"
"I don't know, the other party seems to be very vigilant, but you can try to use your strength to find him, he should still be on your island now."
Looking at Charles holding the paper, the pope continued to persuade: "I know you have deep feelings for mice, but you have to think about it, if you really want to find the surface, how much our world will change and how much it will benefit Isn't that more important than the life and death of a mouse, our fellow citizens?"
Charles didn't answer the question, he tossed the black paper in his hand, turned and walked towards the door.
The pope's voice came from behind, "Thank you for your trust in me. You didn't choose those deformed lunatics to deal with me. I think our relationship has become closer."
Time passed by, and the crew who came to visit Lily from time to time, everyone had a smile on their faces, but even if no one said anything, the atmosphere in the Governor's Mansion became more and more depressing.
Another month passed in a blink of an eye, Lily lying on the pillow was getting older, only one front tooth was missing, and the hair on her body was about to fall out.
Charles put a little spoon of oatmeal to her mouth.
Lily slowly turned her head to the side, and said very weakly: "Mr. Charles, I'm not hungry..."
"Lily, you haven't eaten much recently. If you don't eat, your body won't be able to hold on."
After Lily heard this, she reluctantly opened her mouth and chewed hard.
At this moment, Charles heard footsteps and turned his head to look. It was the butler, holding a piece of paper in his hand, which was a telegram from Elizabeth on Icha Island.
"Sorry, dear, Mr. Gaunt went back to the West Sea to visit other magic families, but he couldn't find any solution."
"The mages in the Western Sea Region are not as powerful as you think. They can easily extract a human soul and use it as a material, but this is completely different from your request."
"Taking out the soul of a mouse and sending it into a human body without damage is already in the category of gods. If they really had this ability, they would have lived forever, and they wouldn't be suppressed by other forces now into this."
Looking at the telegram in his hand, there was a trace of pain in Charles' eyes, and his hope became more and more elusive.
He originally thought that this sea area was so illogical that saving the life of a little mouse should be a no-brainer, but he was wrong.
In this place, there are many things to destroy and destroy, but there are very few things to heal.
"Cough cough cough~!!" Suddenly, Lily coughed.
Charles leaned over nervously, and before he could ask, Lily opened her mouth and spit out the rice cereal she just ate, together with a large pool of blood, directly on the pillow.
"Linda! Come here!!" Charles' shouts resounded through the Governor's Palace.
Linda, who had already prepared, rushed in quickly, picked up Lily and rushed towards the medical room that had been prepared.
Charles leaned against the wall at the door with his arms folded, his eyes full of confusion.
Unknowingly, the other crew members of the Narwhal had arrived, and they also stood or stood silently waiting.
