When everything was checked, the entire Governor's Palace was plunged into darkness. Julio breathed a sigh of relief and turned his head to look at the wall in front of him.
It looks like he is looking at the wall, but actually he is looking at the street outside the wall.
It was not until the evening, when Julio saw that the holes in the roofs of the greenhouses had been resealed, that he finally took action.
He reached his right hand into the inside of his coat, grabbed a pearl and threw it into the air. A green light scattered from the pearl.
Under the illumination of this strange light, the shadows of the stools, the table, and various objects around began to distort.
The straight lines began to fold, tentacles with hollow patterns stretched out from the shadows, and strange-shaped holes covered all the shadows.
With the support of these things, the hall, which should have been decorated magnificently, instantly turned into a horrifying hell on earth.
"Go, I want to know all the information about the rat just now." With Julio's order, all the shadow monsters around rushed to the door and window sills.
Then, Julio sat on the stool and leaned his feet on the table. With a backhand pull, a bright red apple appeared in his hand.
"Crunch, crunch," Julio kept chewing.
Just as he was waiting for those things to come back, with a swish, Shanshan appeared in front of him.
The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and then Shan Shan abruptly stretched out his right hand and grabbed the apple.
Several shadows stretched out from Julio's sleeves and shot straight towards Shanshan's petite body. Almost in an instant, those shadows easily pierced Shanshan's body.
But at the same time, Shanshan also grabbed his apple, and disappeared in front of him with a flash of white light.
Julio was stunned for a moment. This was the first person who escaped from his hands so easily in all these years.
"Yes, it seems that Charles still has a lot of good helpers. I still underestimated him."
Julio said as he took out another apple and was about to take another bite, but the next second, Shanshan appeared in front of him again and took the apple away again.
Looking at his empty palm, Julio's expression twisted slightly, and the approval in his eyes began to turn into mild anger. "Is this little girl doing this to provoke me?"
With a wave of his right hand, the five apples were neatly placed back on the table. "Very good, I want to see if you can take these five."
The next second, a cup of dark blue potion poured onto the ground, and the potion quickly formed a triangular magic circle around the table where the apples were placed.
This time, Shanshan didn't show up for a long time. It was not until the next morning that she appeared again.
Just as she opened her arms to pick up the five apples, the whole table broke in half, and with a "bang", the table top fell heavily on both sides of Shanshan's body.
The triangular magic circle on the ground instantly lit up, and various dark blue lines stretched out from it, quickly shuttling across the table, directly sewing the table in place.
However, looking at the thing in front of him that looked like a huge cocoon, the anger on Julio's face became even stronger. With his penetrating eyes, he could see that it was empty inside. The thing had run away again!
"Haha, very good! Very good!" Julio showed a fake smile on his face.
In the next few days, Julio was completely obsessed with Shanshan, and he tried every means to keep that thing.
But every time the opponent could easily escape from him, which made Julio, who had been the overlord of Earthsea for so many years, very angry. He had never felt so aggrieved.
It was another morning. Julio, with dark circles under his eyes, stared at the ten apples in front of him. Surrounding these ten apples were various relics, magic arrays, and strange machines with inscriptions on them.
Julio nervously looked at the clock hanging on the wall. Over the past few days, he had mastered the pattern of the other party's appearance. The little girl would snatch his apples at 7 o'clock every day.
“5… 4… 3… 2… 1! Don’t even think about running away this time!!” Julio suddenly jumped up with excitement in his eyes, and various things emitted bright or dim lights.
At this moment, the door next to it opened with a creak, and Anna walked in from outside holding Shanshan's hand.
"Governor Julio really has a childlike heart. He plays so enthusiastically with a child who is less than one year old."
Julio, who was a little embarrassed for a moment, quickly waved his hand, and everything in the hall disappeared instantly. "Ahem... ahem, who are you?"
"Aren't you looking for the Governor of Hope Island? I am, and this place is my home. If you want to live there, go live somewhere else."
After hearing what the other party said, Julio regained his arrogance. He looked at Anna coldly and said, "Why haven't I heard that the governor of Hope Island has become a woman? Let Charles come out to see me."
"Just come to me if you have anything to say. If you don't want to talk, please go back. We hope the island doesn't welcome you." Anna walked to a stool nearby and sat down sideways.
Julio looked at her carefully. Facing Anna's sexy body, there was no desire in his eyes. His eagle-like eyes allowed him to see deeper. "You... look... like..."
"Are you going to tell it or not? Everything outside is ready." Anna looked at him calmly.
Julio turned his head to look at the wall, and then he discovered that at some point, the roofs of the streets outside had been filled with various cannon muzzles, and the black muzzles were pointing directly at the Governor's Palace.
Julio turned his head again and looked at Shanshan who was sitting on Anna's lap. "It seems that she listens to you so much. I admit that you are qualified. I don't like to beat around the bush. I came to the Governor of Hope Island this time for a few things."
"First, I need some seeds that can grow under dead light. It's too slow for you to grow island by island. Don't forget that in addition to the North Sea, there are also the East, South and West Seas."
"So what price are you willing to pay for these seeds?" Anna looked at him with a faint smile on her face.
Julio frowned slightly, "I remember that these seeds are always delivered, right?"
"Yes, they are all given to you. You can wait patiently for half a year or a year, and my dear daughter will go to Cat Island to give you seeds." Anna gently hugged Shanshan in her arms with both hands.
"The entire human race in Earthsea has experienced such a great disaster. Planting one day earlier can save one more life. How dare you make conditions now?" Julio stood up, looking like an angry lion.
Just as the atmosphere in the hall was becoming more and more tense, Anna suddenly covered her mouth and chuckled, "Governor Julio, you really have no sense of humor. I was just joking, why did you take it so seriously?"
"I don't think it's funny to joke about this." Julio sat down again with a sullen face.
"That's it for the first one, what about the second one?" Anna blinked at him.
"The second one is this death ray that exterminated humanity. Is it related to the disappeared Church of Light?"
