The rubber quickly solidified and sealed the past Charles inside, but the story was not over yet. The tentacles of the two Charles quickly wrapped around the rubber coffin.
The rubber figure entangled by the tentacles kept twisting like a maggot, and thick tree roots stretched out from the bandage body to help reinforce it.
The first layer is rubber, the second layer is the transparent tentacles of the two Charles, and the third layer is the bandaged roots.
Under the triple control, Charles in the past seemed to be sealed in cement, unable to move at all.
Just when Charles was about to ask how to send his past self to the rooftop with the huge searchlight.
He felt himself floating up. It was the power of the two popes. As the two pushed Charles and the others hard out of thin air, an amazing pressure made Charles involuntarily tilt his head back.
The skin on Charles' face was shaking constantly due to the strong wind. When he came to his senses again, he found himself flying in mid-air, flying towards the distance at a very fast speed.
No wonder I could reach the rooftop in such a short distance, it turns out I actually flew there!
The two Charles followed a man with a bandage and carried the rubber coffin across the dense woods. At this moment, Charles felt like he was flying a plane.
The power of the two popes was amazing. Before long, Charles saw the rooftop with a huge searchlight appearing not far below.
Charles looked at his future self and shook the prosthetic limb in his hand. He nodded tacitly and switched the prosthetic limb to an anchor hook.
"Swoosh~!" Two anchor hooks were nailed to the wall in front of the rooftop, and they were using the anchor hooks as brakes.
The four of them suddenly stopped in mid-air and fell towards the rooftop below.
With a "puff", Charles suddenly felt a pain in his tentacles. He turned his head and found a black-bladed dagger sticking out from the huge rubber coffin. His past self was about to come out!
Charles glanced anxiously at the bandage, and the bandage immediately retracted its roots tacitly.
In the next second, when the two Charles just retracted their transparent tentacles, the huge human-shaped rubber was cut by the sharp black blade.
Six arms lifted the rubber coffin and threw it forward, and Charles was thrown heavily onto the searchlight.
With a "swish" sound, Charles, with his facial features covered, crawled out.
The three people on the rooftop turned around at the same time and jumped down, but just when Charles rushed to the edge of the rooftop, alarm bells rang in his heart, there was danger behind him!
Subconsciously, he exerted force on his right foot and twisted it violently.
Although he avoided the vital parts, the black blade still cut a gash on his waist, and scarlet blood dripped onto the roof.
"One in three chances, why did you shoot me?"
Charles, standing on the edge of the rooftop, stepped forward, grabbed the black blade and fell towards the woods below.
Charles had just landed steadily when he saw his future self rushing over anxiously. "Go back quickly! You forgot to lose the note!"
"What?" Charles reached out and found the note was still in his hand.
He looked up suddenly and found that the Pope in the distance had already flown over. If he couldn't put the note back before the Pope arrived, the timeline would be messed up!
“Go up the stairs… Quickly…” A few tree roots penetrated the ground through the bandages, and he slammed the wall with his right hand.
The bandaged fingers quickly turned into emerald green vines, which quickly formed a wooden ladder leading directly to the roof.
Charles didn't dare to waste any more time and climbed up quickly on the wooden ladder.
As he approached the rooftop, the voices of Charles and the Pope reached his ears.
"What? Did you fight with them?" Charles asked.
Charles breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he caught up.
As one of his prosthetic fingers flipped upwards, an invisibility ring popped out and was put on his finger.
The invisible Charles raised his head slightly at the edge of the roof, flicked his right hand lightly, and the paper ball in his hand rolled onto the roof.
"Haha, it seems the other party left us a message."
Hearing the Pope's voice on the rooftop, Charles took a deep breath and slowly descended the ladder.
The three of them entered the woods next to the rooftop and waited. When they saw a huge beam of light shooting straight into the sky, the two Charles smiled at each other.
As for whether the bandage was smiling or not, Charles didn't know because his face was wrapped in thick bandages.
"By the way, give me that knife. You won't be using it next time anyway." Future Charles snatched the black blade from Charles' hand.
Charles didn't feel sorry when he saw his future self putting the black blade back into his prosthetic limb.
Because soon, he could snatch the black blade from another Charles.
"Let's go. I've asked Bandage to take the others to a gathering place." said Charles from the future.
Charles nodded and followed him deeper into the forest.
But after walking in the dense woods for a few minutes, Charles felt something was wrong.
He took out a compass and quickly identified the direction, then asked future Charles, "Aren't we going in the direction of the ship?"
Future Charles smiled and said, "Of course not."
He pointed at his disheveled clothes and continued, "You will have to go through the same thing I went through later. Otherwise, don't even think about leaving this island. Things on this island are not that simple."
Hearing this, Charles' heart sank slightly. He guessed that what happened next would be the reason for the disappearance of West and the other seven.
He and Bandage looked at each other and continued to follow.
Comparing with the compass, Charles found that he was heading towards the center of the island.
Although he had many doubts in his mind, he still didn't ask when he saw Future Charles leading the way.
"Don't think too much. The questions in your mind will soon be answered." Future Charles said without turning his head.
After walking for almost two hours, Charles suddenly heard some movement ahead.
He did not pick up his weapon because he had heard West chatting with someone, and he sounded happy.
When the two groups met, they quickly split into two groups, one for the present and one for the future.
"Can I tell you now?" Charles looked at his future self.
Future Charles looked around, walked to a tree, grabbed a piece of wood ear growing on the trunk, and twisted it gently.
With a "clang", the soil in front of him suddenly collapsed, revealing a pitch-black steel staircase.
The red light inside flickered on and off, which made Charles feel very familiar.
