The dark red mist that enveloped the sky was engulfed by darkness.

   The battle between Lu Li and Astos leads to some unknown existence, and finally Astos turns into a mushroom in a flower basket.

  Puri Roglinton opened his mouth slightly, substituting the stupid question of "what was that" with "did it go away..."

   "There's nothing he's interested in here."

  Humanity and Astos are two "mushrooms", the former turns into grassland and the latter turns into real mushrooms.

   "Barry... Huh?"

   led the patriarchs to the mushroom moss, Claire stopped talking, and looked at Lu Li: "Margaret, summon the merchant, we are stared by evil spirits—"

   "I'm fine! I'm back!"

   Barry, whose face and trouser legs were rubbing against the mud, appeared from a distance, shouting as he ran.

   "We're about to ask the merchants to find you." Claire's bandaged body relaxed, staring at the dirty Barry with disgust: "Where have you been?"

   "I followed the red cloak..."

   Barry told them what he had seen: "I saw it wash the Astos mushrooms by the stream, eat the head, and I picked up the body that was lost."

   He took out the wet "Astos", the part of the canopy corresponding to the head completely disappeared, and there were neat tooth marks on the top of the umbrella handle.

   "The divinity has dissipated, leaving only a pair of empty shells." Margaret said with a true-vision monocle, "but there is still power left in this empty shell... The core is here."

  Margaret pointed to the middle of the stipe, and Claire ripped apart Astos's pocket-sized remnant like a mushroom, revealing a heart of lava with a big fingernail beating slowly.

   The red cloak ate Astos's head, but discarded the essence.

   "That freak didn't find you?" Claire asked in surprise.

   Barrono replied: "I guess it found it...but didn't care about me."

  Margaret took out the eyeball of the merchant and was about to tell the land of light what happened here.

   "Are we really going to tell Her Majesty the Swamp Mother?" Barry glanced at the pained patriarchs, "The Swamp Mother may anger them."

   The last group of nobles who caused trouble to Lu Li have been crushed and put into banyan trees to transform into banyan tree guards. If letting him know that the bloodline family alliance would also bring trouble to Lu Li...

  Theoretically, the mother of the swamp is also the "mother" of all nobles. The nobles hundreds of years ago married each other, and many of the continued noble bloodlines flowed from the blood of the ancient family, and the Toya Ragon family is one of the ancient families.

  Whether they admit it or not, their grandmother is also called the mother of the swamp.

  Claire stared at the slow-beating heart of Astos, and suddenly said: "This heart can be used as an alchemy material to resurrect you."

   "They did it on purpose?"

   Margaret temporarily retracted her eyes.

   "It's just an accident." Claire looked around at the sadness of the surrounding patriarchs that didn't seem to be fake, "But it's wrong."

"Did you hear our conversation?" she asked Prie Loglinton, who was staring sadly at Astors' corpse.

  Puri Roglinton took a deep breath and didn't have a choice for too long: "If we can revive Mr. Lu Li... Of course we will offer Astos' body."

   "The Land of Light will remember your exploits."…

  Claire gave a rare compliment from her prejudice.

   "But Lu Li hasn't decided whether to resurrect or not," Margaret said.

   "He will."

  Claire was sure about this, and looked at Lu Li: "My mother told me something before departure."

   "She said that the ghost is actually a process of loss. It loses the most important senses as a human being, and only the will is left, just like a soul that has broken away from the body. The ghost will add what is lost to other things, such as the only remaining emotions."

   "Excessive desire and emotion lead them to paranoia, like... Anna."

  Lu Li's rationality and calmness may make his transformation road very long, but it is not stagnant.

   One day, the suppressed part will erupt more violently.

  The fading of the waves means the birth of a tsunami.

   "There's more... This is an experiment, we're looking for a way to bring the ghost back to life."

   This sentence is only used to persuade Lu Li, it is indeed useful.

   "When and how." Lu Li asked her

  Claire clenched her fists and cheered: "We can let mother come over, she has already prepared a full set of plans!"

   "That's a week later."

   "No, Margaret, in a few hours."

  Claire took out the merchant's eyeball from the hole under the bandage: "Mother can take the merchant's road."

  The Land of Light has prepared everything, or it has been planned for a long time.

   "As guests, do you want us to party on the wilderness?" Claire said to Perry Roglinton.

   "Sorry, please come with me..."

  Puri Roglinton pulled his tattered and charred clothes and led them back to the town of Black Box within the copper city walls.

When   Astos got out of control, the town of Black Box was well protected, except for the fright of the inhabitants. Puri Roglinton took them to the furnished auditorium, said "I'm sorry", and temporarily left to change clothes.

  The patriarchs are all treating and changing their clothes, and their elaborate banquet doors are scattered, only the maids who dare not approach them hide in the distance.

  The strange fog has landed, and it is going deep into the barren land. The red copper city wall blocks the view of the wilderness.

   This may make Black Box a little sluggish, but like the Wall of Immortality in the early days of the Land of Light, the sense of security it brings to its residents is unparalleled.

  Claire picked up a piece of cake and shook it at Lu Li, "It's your favorite cake, but now there's only Barry - we're being targeted by evil spirits!"

  The suddenly startled Claire looked around, Barry disappeared as if he was quietly blending in.

   "It has already left." Lu Li said, when he realized what happened to Barry, it meant that it was not around, "and it won't come again."

  The dehumanized Lu Li is no longer attractive to Barry.

   "So an evil spirit brought you the opportunity to resurrect?" Claire said with a frown, staring suspiciously at the remnant of Astos held by Margaret.

   At this moment, Chris with a lady's handbag appeared outside the door and walked in with her head down.

"I'm glad you made a decision." Chris looked at Lu Li with a smile, and then learned from Claire what happened, "Well... we need some preparations, and we also need to check the heart of Astos, and we want a pure soul. , won't make you wait too long."

   "Pure soul?"

   "It is used to make up for the damage that may occur to your soul during resurrection. Ability God can breed, and you can ask them for a share."

  Before the resurrection ceremony, Lu Li asked the Bloodline Family Alliance to help him find a wife in Black Box Town: Nunes, his teammate in the first stage of the March Contest in the Mirage of Late Night City.

"He said... 'I'm from Black Box Town, if it still exists, can I ask you to send a letter to my wife?'" In front of a residential house, Lu Li and the woman who was cautiously held by her new husband said .

   "Here are his last words."

"Thank you…"

The    woman expressed her gratitude to Lu Li.

   She will start a new life in a new family.
