Chapter 40: Illuminati


   As soon as Charles walked into the Explorers Association, he saw an unexpected scene. The hall that used to be deserted is now lively.
  Various sofas and coffee tables are placed at will, men and women in various sea attire, standing or sitting in groups, full of voices.
   There are also many guys in the crowd who are obviously not eating Shanghai food, and they whisper around the captains.
   Charles skipped from the crowd and walked to the counter to hand over the task. The voice in his ear let him know that those people are all entrusting the task.
   "Hey! Charles! Come here." William, who was inexplicably excited, waved the wine bottle in his hand. Around him were several captains who had a relationship.
   Seeing Charles looking this way, Elizabeth snorted coldly and tilted her head to the other side.
  As soon as Charles walked over, William hooked his shoulder enthusiastically. "My friend, your knife works really well!"
   The pungent smell on William's body made Charles feel a little uncomfortable. He pushed William's arm away and said, "Is it a powerful relic?"
   He sold two unidentified relics of William last time, a black record and a rusty knife. It seems that William looked like he was making a lot of money.
   "Well, it's very powerful, it's so good that it can't be better! I pretended to accidentally give the knife to my enemy, guess what? He killed all the people in his ship, hahaha!!!"
   Looking at William who was laughing wildly, Charles felt a little absurd. Can the relic still be used like this? ?
   The fat man next to him came over and bumped Charles with his arm, "I heard that you are going to sea again? Have you encountered any interesting things? Tell me and listen."
   Charles subconsciously recalled the arm that stretched out from the bottom of the sea, and smiled barely on his face. "There is nothing to say, some crew members died and the mission failed."
   "Talk about, talk about it. Why do you come here if you come over and don’t communicate? Wouldn’t it be good to go to the casino to win with this skill?"
   Charles couldn't help them, and finally began to talk about everything before, giant butterfly, palm, and dark crystal island.
   Hearing Charles's passing, the other captains sighed for Charles's good fortune. Encountered so many thrilling things, they could come back alive.
   "Oh~, Stark is not so lucky." The fat man said casually.
   "Who is Stark?"
   "If the kid knew that you didn't even know his name, he might be able to survive angrily. He and Elizabeth tied you up before, have you forgotten?"
   Charles immediately remembered the brawny man with cheerful disposition, his pupils shrinking slightly. "he died?"
   The fat man nodded, grabbed the blue fruit with his hand and took a bite, and then continued: "Isn't it normal for dead people? This month is not bad, only 7 died."
   Charles swept across everyone's faces and found that there was no sadness on their faces, and their expressions were naturally chatting.
   Charles has a deeper understanding of the previous concept of filling with fate.
   After being silent for a while, he said to the other captains: "Everyone, how much do you know about the city of Sodom?"
   This is the purpose of his coming today. For that unknown place, he has only heard the name, and now he needs more clues.
  As soon as the voice fell, everyone turned their eyes to the darkened middle-aged man in the corner with an eagle nose on his face.
   "Charlie was a pirate before, you can ask him." William raised his head and took a sip of wine.
   "I can only tell you that the place is messy, don't go there if it's okay, if you are weaker, go there and die." Charlie's voice was as low as ever.
   "Then have you heard of someone selling sunshine over there?"
   Hearing Charles' question, Charlie shook his head.
   "No?" Charles was nervous.
   "I don't know, maybe there is or maybe not, that place sells everything as long as there is money. When you get to Sodom, you can go to the anchor bar and ask the bartender, saying that it was introduced by the sea dog and that was my friend."
   "Thank you." Charles looked at Charlie with a hint of gratitude. Most people don't know this kind of information, and he is willing to give himself a favor.
   The fat man next to him pushed Charles with his elbow, and leaned in and said in a low voice, "He is optimistic about you. If you can meet the "god" who can come back alive, the future is boundless."
   Charles smirked. Who can say this kind of thing is accurate, and who can pack a ticket in such a ghost place and say that he will live to the end, he is just an ordinary person.
   The active atmosphere returned to before. Charles followed these people to drink and eat snacks, and the relationship got closer.
   He picked up a round cake on the table and took a bite. The soft bread and sweet cream taste surprisingly good. It is the first time to eat this exquisite food for so many years in this world.
   After eating the food in his hand, just when Charles was thinking about retreating, an ordinary-looking young man approached. "Captain Charles?"
   Charles turned his head to look at the person who came. The guy who came was wearing a red robe. On the forehead of UU reading www.uukanshu.com, there was a bright white triangle painted, and his outfit was completely different from the other captains around him.
"you are……?"
   "My name is Sonny, and I am an explorer just like you."
   Elizabeth, who had been ignoring Charles, gave a clear cough, dipped her finger in wine, and drew a few horizontal lines on the table.
   When seeing that line of semaphore represents the meaning of stay away from danger, Charles's vigilance instantly increased.
   "I heard that Mr. Charles is looking for a place of light? Why didn't I see you during church service?"
   Guangming Shenjiao? Charles didn't bother to pretend immediately, and got up to leave.
   The next second, Sonny's body flashed and stopped in front of Charles.
"Mr. Charles is radical Protestantism? In fact, you are wrong. You have misinterpreted the oracle of the sun god. The original doctrine is the truth. The place of light is nothingness and cannot be found. We must pray sincerely, frequently Will hold a prayer ceremony before the sun will return again."
   Listening to these ridiculous words, Charles really doesn't know how to communicate. He doesn't know where the oracles in these guys' mouths are. It is only certain that the oracles are definitely not from the big fireball in the sky.
   "Sorry, I didn't teach you, please get out of trouble."
  Sony's face was a little surprised, "If you are not taught by the Sun God, why are you looking for a place of light?"
   "I'm not looking for it now, goodbye." Charles finished speaking, and walked around Sonny towards the door.
   The white mark on Sonny's forehead lit up, and from inside his robe, a group of translucent bruise-like fluid quickly enveloped Charles. "Should we go to other places to chat?"
   Charles's face became cold, and the left wheel of his right hand was already pointed at his head.
