Chapter 288 People who are not satisfied with the status quo

A corner surrounded by woods appeared on the edge of an island that looked green from a distance, and a mine surrounded by woods appeared.

Brand new buildings and houses are distributed around the mine. Many residents with pink feathers on their arms and wearing gray ones are in and out of the mine caves and buildings. Although the number of houses is obviously enough to accommodate the population of the mine, and even more than enough, some residents are still building new houses, and those who come out of the mine carry baskets of pitch-black stones.

Among these people with feathers on their arms, there were many armed personnel guarding the guns and gas masks. They did not beat or abuse these workers, but saw that someone was lazy, they would urge and call them from time to time.

Next to the small mine, there is a wooden pier. The surface of the wood seems to be shining with wooden stubble. More than a dozen warships are parked here, including several particularly large warships. The entire ship is cast of steel. The surface of the ship is painted black. There are no masts on the ship. Only a row of tall chimneys pointing straight to the sky, constantly emitting black smoke into the sky.

It is worth mentioning that the island is so quiet that it makes people feel weird. There is no sound of any animal or even birds singing. There is no sound of the sea breeze blowing through the woods and fanning the branches and leaves of trees. The black smoke emitted by the steamboat is also straight towards the sky, and it looks like it is not harassed by the sea breeze at all, or there is no wind here at all.

Because this is the windless belt, this whole is still in the world of the sailing era, and the sea area that humans are most reluctant to enter.

However, the two most dangerous factors in this sea area - wind and Neptune, have been overcome by William. Steam-powered ships can move freely in this sea area, and the sound wave technology made by sea train track technology can also avoid harassment by Neptune.

Before the real battle with the Golden Lion Ski, when William made a plan to fight with the Navy, he used steamboats to continuously transport personnel and supplies to the Wind-Wind Belt and used the Wind-Wind Belt as a secret base. After the Golden Lion Ski was defeated and the Sky Island Melveyou landed, he kept transporting the island's residents and important supplies here day and night.

On the bow deck of a black steamer, he inspected the village after a round of inspection, and returned to the boat, Alamis took off the gas mask on his face and exhaled a long sigh: "There are still too few people, and there is not enough demand for the navigation of these steamers."

"It's just a waste utilization." Danpier said lightly.

During the reign of the Golden Lion Ski, young people were arrested to work in the palace. Only the elderly and children were left in the village, and they struggled to support themselves. The population became very small. After the Golden Lion Ski died, the island fell and many people were injured and killed. In the end, there were only a few hundred people left in the entire village.

These people were eventually taken to Wufeng Belt by William and imprisoned on the island in disguise to build mines, partly to cover up their sights and the other part is to find something for them to do. However, neither William nor Danpiel were going to expand the scale of the mines here, so the mine still relies on manpower to operate.

"What are the new cases on the island?" Danpiel asked about the most important thing about Alamis' inspection in the village this time.

"Thirteen people, they rose again," Alamis looked back at the woods surrounding the mines. "The people on the island said that there are too many transplants of 'daftgreen' here, and now even young people are starting to get sick frequently."

"Very good." Danpiel replied casually, seemingly not caring about the lives and death of the natives of Melvieu Island.

Alamis wanted to speak but stopped. Danpier looked at him, thinking that he was soft-hearted and worried about the condition of the natives on the island, so he said, "Don't worry, the medicines that the Golden Lion Ski originally stored, plus the medicines we produced under the auspices of Dr. Indyco during this period, are very prepared and enough to save them."

"I'm just worried about William," Alamis sighed. "Sherlock is very guilty. He has personally run back to the East China Sea to contact all forces, implement the plan, and starts to connect. William is betting on his life. I'm afraid of any accidents. Maybe we shouldn't provoke the navy at the beginning..."

"Have I ever told you about me?" Danpiel asked back.

Alamis was stunned when he heard this: "What?"

"Do you know what I said to him after William became a nobleman in the Kingdom of Navia and killed Andre?"

“'A person’s life is actually very short, but it’s too long to spend it humbly’,” Alamis said. “William told me.”

Danpiel pursed his lips and hesitated for a moment, but as smart as he knew that although William's team had made many preparations, this battle still required everyone to work together. He had to do everything possible to strengthen the confidence within the team. So he said: "None of my other people had said this. My father was originally a little noble. Although he was not powerful, he did not need to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation every day like those ordinary people. He never took risks, and even did not trade with ships. He always pursued stability. It seemed that he should have lived longer than the pirates fighting at sea. What was the result? When he was in his thirties, he had a terminal illness and his health was getting worse and worse. He took a lot of drugs that worked and didn't work every day. Then one day, he found that my mother had an affair with a sailor, right at my house, and..., bang!"

Danpiel suddenly screamed, shocking Alamis who was gradually immersed in the divine way of listening to his story.

Danpiel's lips curled up, a little cold and sarcastic, and continued, "When he died, he finally did a 'big thing'. He shot my mother and the sailor in the bedroom, and then came to my room. I don't know what he was thinking about coming to me at that time, but I hid in the cabinet long before that, and watched through the gaps as he quickly gave up searching, then sat by my bed, swallowed the gun and committed suicide."

Alamis opened his mouth and wanted to say a few sympathy words, but before he could say it, he was interrupted by Danpiel: "You don't have to pity me. What you should pity is my father. His whole life is summed up in the eyes of the world. Only the cheating wife was shot and killed, and finally, the matter of suicide was asked to discuss it before and after the meal. The most pitiful thing is that he pursued stability, but death and misfortune still found him."

"Why don't I do the right thing, but I sell arms? Because I have been waiting for someone, waiting for someone like me, I would rather be executed by the world government and the Navy headquarters in front of the world before they are all over the world at the age of 30. It's a sensation, rather than living a stable life. As a result, I got a terminal illness at the age of 30 and could only complain about the unfair fate. Then, in my son's room, I committed suicide with a gun that killed his wife's husband, and was attracted by someone to be a joke, and in the end no one remembered his name."

Danpiel glanced at Alamis: "There are countless safer industries and businesses to do. I believe that William's mind and personality will definitely be able to stand out, but William still chose this path. I knew that he is the same person as me, a person who can put life and death aside for his career. What is not dangerous to do? I have heard of William lurking on the Barbarossa ship when he was in the first place. Isn't that dangerous? If we win this battle, we can make a sensation in the world and we have a chance to win. Why do we still have to hesitate now?"
