"Well~ that guy has finally released the psychological cues from me now, so I can say...he was a human who was discovered before you, why don't you go in and take a look?"

"Don't make such a bad joke... What are your five hundred years of time? Is there anyone else petrified like me?"

To Nigolan's words, William's look of sneering was completely disbelieving.

You must know that among all races, human beings are the cleanest to die, and then there are powerful races such as the ancient spirits and dragons. The weak orcs have no strength to resist, so instead they escaped and lingered in the sky. .

No matter how William thought about it, he couldn't think of anyone who could escape his life except himself. It was not impossible to be petrified, but after being petrified, it was not destroyed by beasts for a long time. difficult thing.

No matter what kind of creatures, most of them survive for the purpose of existence. Whether it is a species or an individual, it is easy to understand the combination of the two. Basically, they are all for the purpose of eating, sleeping, and the pursuit of the opposite **** to reproduce.

Human beings with high-level intelligence may pursue more, and some people don't care about those things, but it is certain that creatures with low-level intelligence pursue those things, but the beasts on the surface are different.

To say that they don't seem to want to reproduce at all, the sixth beast can split by itself, but each of the other beasts has no intention of wanting to live, and can easily perish together. move.

From 500 years ago to the present, their purpose has only been one - to kill all living things except them, to destroy all existences with signs of life, to first deal with animals and then deal with plants, that is, even in the true sense of the word. Flowers and trees cannot exist.

This action directly turned the earth into gray, and even the impurities were completely wiped out. Frankly speaking, in the face of such devastating destruction, how did the life on the floating island continent survive for a hundred years under the attack of hundreds of millions of beasts? In fact, William has never been able to figure out why.

Neither the ancient spirits nor the dragons survived, and the humans who were initially attacked by the beasts were naturally unable to survive, so...

"Could it be a swindler who claims to be a swindler of human beings?"

"Hmm~ Then you can go and have a look."

Nigolan was by the door, with an ambiguous smile upturned at the corners of his mouth, signaling him to hurry in.

"Why don't you go ahead? Are you really not going to stab me?"

"No, what does a big man say when he is afraid of his hands and feet?"

"Normal men are afraid to see you."

So complaining, William still chose to believe in Nigolan, and stepped into it after providing vigilance and psychological preparation.

A young man sat on the sofa with a golden sword, with a rifle and a bayonet in his hand. He was now depicting something with the bayonet. When he entered the room, he raised his head and looked over.

Not very familiar, but definitely not unfamiliar, even the man who had been the center of the topic five hundred years ago came into view.

"I haven't seen you for five hundred years. You have grown a lot taller, but the basic face shape has not changed, William."

"—Zanguang Church... Chief Paladin?!"

For a moment, William was dumbfounded, and he began to wonder if his eyes were flowered, or was he actually dreaming?

People from five hundred years ago appeared in front of him without changing at all, which made him start to doubt the reality and pinched his face.

"it hurts……"

The pain proves that this doesn't seem to be a dream. Could it be... a return to five hundred years ago? After a while, Lilia, who likes to play tricks, is overly active, sloppy, unrestrained and free, but has real courage, appears from the side? Or Princess Reese standing on the top of the eldest lady?

"Lilia and the princess, are they... just around the corner?"

"...not."

"Ah, I know it must be that Her Royal Highness has not come yet, and Lilia has gone to play again, right?"

"...They are not on this floating island continent."

Yong Ye lowered his eyes slightly, and his eyes became a little dim.

"You mean... this is on the mainland of Floating Island?"

Since Yong Ye's appearance has not changed at all, it is the same as when he first saw it, there is no trace of time left at all, and it appeared too suddenly, William, who is not mentally prepared, is still in a daze. Some are out of touch with reality.

"...Nigolan, you don't need to prepare tea, just close the door. I want to talk to William alone. Besides... Please drive away the other children who overheard."

Without saying anything for the first time, Yong Ye just expelled Nigolan, the master, and asked her to drive away the nearby fairies who were full of curiosity and hid in various blind spots to spy on their movements.

"It's really inspiring."

Complaining like this, Nigolan closed the door for him and walked out.

There were only two men left in the room who had met again after five hundred years.

"In short, sit down first, inhale, then exhale, repeat a few times to calm down and then we'll talk."

Compared to William who suddenly faced the shocking reality, Yong Ye, who had known the other party's existence for a long time, naturally seemed to be at ease. He stretched out his hand to signal him to sit down first, while he was tasting the milk tea brewed by Nigolan.

After waiting for about three minutes, William, who was taking deep breaths, finally calmed down and almost understood... No, I still can't understand why this is now.

After spending so long to grasp the general situation, he stretched his head and pressed his hands on the coffee table urgently to look at Yong Ye.

"What the **** is going on? I heard that the human race has perished, and... even if it didn't perish, it has been more than 500 years, why are you still alive? And how does it seem that you and your master brought you to the nursing home to donate money The times are exactly the same?? Does your life mean that other people are actually living well? The Zanguang Church has developed a spell that can make people immortal? No... That kind of spell seems to exist in itself, but The price is very high... Did you use it??"

Since there was no way to stabilize his emotions, as soon as William opened his mouth, he was greeted with a series of questions that made Yong Ye shake his head helplessly.

"First of all... That unreliable guy, your master Mars, and I are both immortal or immortal to some extent. I don't know the specific circumstances or how long they can live, so I can't tell you the reason, you Treat it as a secret of the Zanguang Church, by the way, after you petrified and disappeared, I became the Pope."

"The paladin can't be the Pope, right? Could it be that you united with the princess to launch an armed coup? Is it because of your internal fighting that you vigorously developed biological weapons and created beasts to cause this disaster?"

"Your imagination is really rich, and the Pope who praised the church can't do a simple armed coup... I became the Pope for a special reason. It would be very troublesome to explain. I will not explain it for the time being."

"This kind of thing is all right. Since you have lived for more than five hundred years, you should know that when we went to crusade against the Star God, where did things go wrong that the beasts appeared?"

Having met a person who seemed to know everything, William wanted to know as many things as a mountain, but now he screened it and chose the things he wanted to ask more.

"...Beast? It's a little complicated, and it doesn't make much sense to say it. Let's keep it a secret for now. It can only be said that although it is indeed caused by the human race, it is not anyone's fault. It is too complicated to investigate, so...everyone No responsibility."

To be precise, according to his understanding of William, although William is strong, he is unexpectedly vulnerable in certain things. Tell the fact that the beasts on the earth were once human, and now he has no spiritual support, he may not be able to bear it. So let's not talk about these things that are now irrelevant.

"What do you mean? Completely unclear!"

"...I'll tell you later."

"Forget it, let's not talk about the beast, but the nursing home... Have you ever been there? Elle..."

Halfway through, he didn't dare to imagine how sad his precious daughter would be when he knew of his death, so William hesitated to change the question.

"I want to ask... Who of our group survived in the end? Or... all of them died?"

"...Lilia, Naviertri, Kaia, the three of them survived. I went to the nursing home to find Mars, and the children in it were all well, and it was your daughter Elmeria who knew about you. I'm very sad after the news of her death, but don't worry, after all, the other party is still a child, I have a good comfort to her."

"Consolation? ... Can you ask how to comfort?"

At first, there were survivors, knowing that other people were dead, and William, who was already sad enough, suffered a mental blow, but what Yong Ye said later made him raise his eyebrows.

"It's very common to hug her, and then touch her head or something."
