Chapter 269
Looking at the motionless screen, Charles's heart was in a mess at this time, and his previous guess was correct.
The collapse of the Foundation is really because they touched the gods. They were not only satisfied with studying the relics, they tried to master the power of the gods!
What the praying mantis hanging upside down on the top of the dome said was true. The disaster was caused by humans. No wonder they did not let humans go to the New Territories City again.
Charles couldn't imagine what kind of disaster it would be. It could wipe out the Foundation in an instant, so that none of their backhands played any role.
"Do humans really have no effect in front of the gods? If one day the gods on the bottom of the sea get bored and go directly to the surface, then..." Charles felt a tremor.
"No, this is not the time to think about this. Touba just said that he saw something more terrifying than this disaster, and asked me to be careful of the Pope. What did he see?"
Charles looked at the tablet in his hand and made a few quick clicks, trying to find more information again, but the other videos in the tablet were left by the descendants of the little boy, and they were nothing more than nonsense.
Charles frowned slightly thinking about this question. Touba seemed to have the ability to predict the future before he was mad. Compared to the Pope, who was completely invisible, the words of this living relic were obviously easier to believe.
However, it seems that the Pope did not act abnormally towards him. How did he cause something more terrifying than the disaster that annihilated the Foundation?
Charles is puzzled. The Illuminati Church also lives in the Earth Sea. If there is any catastrophe, then their church will also suffer heavy losses.
Charles recalled what the Pope had done in the past, but did not find a clue.
"Pa" the tablet in the doctor's hand fell to the ground, his face was a little melancholy, and his body was shaking and he couldn't stand still.
"Hey, are you okay." Charles reached out and quickly held him.
The doctor looked at Charles with a complicated expression, and his shriveled mouth trembled for a while, then opened slightly and said, "My ancestors were also surface people like you?"
"The people in the tablet have no reason to lie to us, it should be true."
"Oh..., so..." The doctor moved to a stool and sat down, with a hint of loss on his ugly face.
"How do you feel that the doubts that have troubled you for most of your life have been resolved?" Charles asked.
"Well...that's all...I thought there was something in it."
The doctor's reaction was not as excited as Charles thought.
He suddenly found that the old man in front of him seemed to be much older in an instant.
"What do you want to see? After watching the excitement, do your thing." The doctor waved away randomly.
"Are you really okay? Do you want me to send you back to the ship?"
"Bill! Don't even move when I am old?" The doctor took out the empty bottle and threw it at Charles.
The spirit of seeing the doctor came back again, and Charles turned and left.
As for Professor Koch, who was holding a tablet and was discussing with his assistant excitedly, he didn't care at all.
Outside the teaching building, because of late at night, there are only a few energetic students, and the school looks a bit deserted.
Charles looked around, and walked towards the gate of the college.
As he walked, he thought about various doubts about the tablet.
The video left by the doctor's ancestor who worked in the foundation contains a lot of information.
All kinds of unanswered questions continue to haunt Charles, and his brain is about to be muddled by these messy information.
Suddenly, a grunt in the abdomen awakened Charles, he was hungry.
Count it down. He hasn't eaten anything all day today.
Charles looked around, and soon saw that the restaurant in the distance was opening, and he walked over.
The restaurant is not big, but the hygiene seems to be good, the customers are very full, and most of the customers are students from the nearby university.
Charles just sat down in an empty seat, and a girl with freckles smiled and jumped over with a menu.
"This handsome gentleman, what do you want? Would you like to try today's special dish, salt-baked lobster ball noodles? Only today~"
"Yes, then give me a portion, and also a bottle of banana wine, and a few purple vines." Charles said, squeezing his dry mouth.
The girl widened her eyes with a frightened expression, "Sorry, only my father made mushroom wine in the store. Banana wine is generally only available in high-end restaurants in the heart of the island."
"Then come to a bottle of mushroom bar." Charles almost forgot that this is not his Hope Island, and the price of banana wine will increase several times as long as he hopes to reach the island.
"Do you really want a bottle? Our wine is very strong~"
"Well, I will try."
"Guests wait! Mom! A salt-baked lobster noodles and a full bottle of mushroom wine." The jumping girl happily jumped to the back of the kitchen.
During the waiting time, Charles looked at the students who were talking about eating and drinking, and his messy heart suddenly calmed down. At this moment, he seemed to have become an ordinary person.
Soon, Charles's food came up, picked out a piece of lobster meat with a fork, rolled it in the noodles with sauce, and found it tasted surprisingly good.
Picking up the wine bottle, looking up in the surprised eyes of the freckled girl, he took a big sip. Charles found that the wine in this house was also very good. No wonder it was so late. The business in this house was the best.
Charles put down everything in his mind and enjoyed the delicious meal with peace of mind, filled with food on an empty stomach. Charles' mood slowly improved.
Just as Charles was eating the second portion, a young girl wearing round glasses walked up to him a little nervously and asked: "Sir, can I make a table with you? Other places are full. "
Looking at the book in her hand, Charles nodded and moved the plate back slightly.
"Thank you! Thank you very much! Sister Nini, please bring me a piece of rye porridge." The girl with eyes opened the stool and sat down in front of Charles.
Soon a bowl of porridge the size of Charles' fist was delivered to the girl with glasses.
Looking at the big meal in front of Charles and then at her simple food, the girl's face was slightly red, and she picked up the spoon and ate quickly.
As a result, I choked for a while because of eating too quickly~EbookFREE.me~, and the girl coughed violently.
A tissue was sent to the girl, and the girl gratefully said thank you to Charles.
"Is it so late to leave school?" Charles asked casually, chewing on the noodles.
"You can't borrow too many books in the library. If you want to read more, you have to stay in it. I have to go back after eating."
"That's really hard work."
The girl put down the napkin and continued to eat her rye porridge.
"It's not hard work. As long as I can graduate from college, I can find a high-paying job. My mother doesn't have to wash other people's clothes every day."
"That's good."
"Thanks to Lord Swann's subsidy. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to go to such a good university."
