The girl's face was filled with impatience. It was the first time Charles had seen her with such an expression. For a moment, he felt very strange.
In his eyes, Shanshan has always been the little girl who knows nothing and is curious about everything.
The last time I saw her, she seemed like just an ignorant child, full of curiosity about everything around her.
Shanshan pursed her light pink lips, she quickly stepped forward and grabbed Charles' right hand, and the surrounding environment changed instantly.
When everything around him stopped again, Charles had arrived in a hall filled with various machines.
Anna revealed her swollen and deformed true body, with her back to Charles and Lily, and used hundreds of tentacles to quickly stir something on a huge gear machine.
"If you have anything to say, just talk to me face to face. I won't be the messenger anymore. Don't ask me about my attitude. I don't want to get involved in my parents' emotional issues!"
Shanshan finished speaking quickly, and her body flashed with white light and disappeared in an instant.
Anna must have known of their arrival, but she seemed not to hear it and continued to control the machine in front of her. It seemed that this machine was specially customized for her and fit her giant body that was nearly ten meters tall very well.
Charles thought for a moment, then walked over to Anna's side and looked at the details of the machine. The gigantic gears, pistons, and bearings were assembled together to form this huge structure.
The massive structure made a terrifying noise as steam gushed out of its pipes.
This machine seemed to be a fusion of the previous analytical machine and several mechanical relics, and their fusion with each other exuded a unique beauty.
There were some black lumps pushed out from the conveyor belt next to it. Anna rolled them up with her tentacles and stuffed them into her mouth.
"My daughter has grown up." Charles gently patted one of Anna's pillar-like tentacles. Translucent mucus slid down from the black scales and stuck to his hand.
"By the way, what does this machine do?"
As soon as Charles finished speaking, a huge tentacle fell from the sky and swung directly towards him with a whistling sound. Charles reacted immediately, and hundreds of translucent tentacles quickly stretched out from the ground and fixed it in place.
The huge swollen tentacle monster lowered its head slightly and looked with eyes as big as small houses, and a vague and chaotic voice roared out from its ferocious mouth.
"Are you still worried that Shanshan will be used by me? What right do you have to worry? You have seen Shanshan a few times since she was born. If you have the guts, just die there and don't come back!"
Charles looked up at her and said calmly, "Can you turn into a human form? Let's have a good chat."
"This is the original me! Why should I accommodate you and become a human being? If you don't want to see it, you can just go away!" Anna's voice was full of irritability.
"You also know that this situation is really not suitable for arguing. Are our emotional problems really more important than the Earth Sea? Don't forget, if the Earth Sea is completely flooded, we will all die!!"
"Ha!" Anna's body shrank rapidly, and then quickly kneaded into a sexy body. Her proud face was full of sarcasm. "I just didn't respond to your call once, and I became the sinner of all mankind? You are good at putting accusations on others."
"The Pope went up there and attacked my ship! Lily was taken away by him! This could have been completely avoided!" Charles' tone became a little heavier.
"Whose fault is it? My fault? This is totally your fault! You assumed that I was a weapon that could be used at any time, but I didn't say that! I don't care if you're looking for death!" Anna's voice was filled with excitement.
"All of this could have been avoided! If you had been down there the whole time, this wouldn't have happened! There are so many explorers, and what's the problem with missing you! You're the cause of the deaths of those crew members."
"But I must be at the top! I am the leader of the explorers! I am almost the best explorer in the entire Earthsea!! Only if I stay at the top, everyone will move forward bravely!!"
Anna seemed to be amused by the other party's words, "Okay, go ahead. I guess you already know what I am doing from your subordinates. Since you stay up there, then the bottom is mine. You have no right to control what I do. If you have the guts, just stay down there and stop me."
Anna's words made Charles' scalp tighten. He stared into Anna's eyes and said, "You'd better not cross the line. Don't forget our identity!!"
"What identity? Governor of Hope Island? Wrong! I am a man-eating monster! I know my identity very well!!"
"Why do you always have to be like this! Can't you just talk properly?"
"Who is not speaking properly? It's you!! This situation is all caused by you! I've had enough!! Do you think it's just this time? Wrong! This is the result of accumulation over and over again!!"
As Anna spoke, her fair skin began to crack and she exuded an unsettling aura.
Charles felt that now was not a good time to chat. If they continued chatting, they would probably fight. He took two steps back and said, "Shanshan, take me back."
Soon, the white light enveloped Charles and he disappeared. Seeing the empty space in front of her, Anna instantly exploded, and her squirming tentacles vented their anger around her.
When Charles returned to Ancha Island, he saw Shanshan appear next to him.
Charles reached out and touched her long, smooth hair. "What's wrong with Anna? Why is there no logic at all?"
Shanshan looked helpless at this time, "What kind of logic are you talking to a woman about? She is unhappy at this time, so you should coax her."
"Oh, huh?"
Shanshan reached out her hand and patted Charles on the shoulder. "Mom is just trying to prove her point. If you give in and say you won't do it again, then the matter will be over."
"Why should she be so angry about this? This concerns the future of the entire Earth Sea. The sea water is gradually submerging everything! She is actually thinking about this at this critical moment!!"
Shanshan's delicate face was once again speechless. "Because she is your wife! She is not your subordinate or enemy! How can you treat her the same way you treat them?"
Listening to his daughter's words, Charles was stunned. Is he really like this
After thinking doubtfully for a while, Charles looked at her again, "By the way, did Anna absorb the power in your body?"
"Of course not! Our power comes from Idiq, she can't absorb it at all!"
Charles was surprised by Shanshan's words, and then his heart suddenly surged with anger towards Swan. This guy actually dared to lie to him!
However, when the misunderstanding in his heart was resolved, Charles felt much better. Anna was still the same Anna, she had not changed.
