"You can eat it if you're hungry, it's not poisonous."

"...This graft can't be grafted like this, right? Are you sure it's delicious?"

Although Swan said it was edible, Yongye felt that the tree and fruit were unusual, and instinctively thought of grafting. Although he did not understand agriculture, it should not be considered from common sense.

"No, the taste is the same as the ordinary one. I heard it was made with a concept-tampering curse."

"...Is the curse really omnipotent? But forget it, let's hurry up."

"That castle that is dark and thorny outside, like an evil temple, is where that weird guy lives."

Swan reached out to the center of the floating island, the only building on the island, the black crystal castle made of the same material as the bottom of the island.

The three were planning to go to the castle, but before they reached the castle on the way, they met a cat girl in a maid's uniform pushing a cart. On the trolley was a pitch-black skull that an adult couldn't wrap his arms around.

"The skulls of the giants? Was the fertilizer of those strange trees so special? But... there are no giants now, right? Was it collected in the past, and then preserved like bacon, so it was blackened?"

I always felt that something was wrong with this huge skull, so Yongye subconsciously stopped and asked Swan next to him, suspecting that it was the fertilizer for those strange trees.

"It's a little wrong. Although it is indeed a large garbage, it does not work like that."

Swan held back his laughter and replied Yong Ye first, then raised his hand and waved, and shouted at the "big trash" in a loud voice like thunder.

"Hey, the big garbage over there! The old man is here to disturb!!"

"Oh—it's you stinky bastard, great sage! Good day, I'm in a panic! We haven't finished the last chess game, you ran away after sending William last time, today... you You must compete with me!!"

The black skull jumped up, and the mouth opened and closed, and the voice sounded like an old man.

"Sorry, the old man is not a temporary riser today, nor is he here to relieve your boredom, but just like a few days ago, I want you to meet someone!"

In the garden, the old man and the skull, one person and one bone, were talking loudly with a tit-for-tat, but apparently quite intimate feeling.

"What—there's another guest? Idiot, why didn't you tell me sooner!"

The skull looked at Yongye, as if he had only noticed Yongye now, and almost jumped up in surprise, no... As a skull, it did jump, although Yongye didn't know what it used to jump.

"...Although I don't want to say it, this thing... Could it be Lord Black Candle? It shouldn't be considered according to common sense, right?"

Under normal circumstances, the Earth God can recover even after death. It shouldn't be like this. No matter what, it should recover after five hundred years.

"Hey?—Wow! You are... what? What's your name?! It was... at that time..."

Hei Zhugong, who had only one skull left, jumped up and down on the cart, looking very lively, um... a skull is very lively, which is quite surprising.

If it had been two years earlier, I had waited for a long time but never came to Eternal Night, the God of Earth. I would have been afraid that I would have pulled out a knife and cut him when I saw Duke Heizhu, but after so long, I could almost calm down, and he is now Still in a state of begging, so just watching him bounce around.

The audience hall inside the castle, like the palace of the evil god.

The skull of Lord Black Candle flew up from the trolley, sat on the throne, looked down at the three people below from the high platform, then opened his mouth and laughed loudly, spitting out so strong that he could clearly see without the Pulse Vision. Purple magic.

"----Wahhahahahahaha!?"

"..."

"I didn't expect it! I didn't expect it! You, the last Pope of the Zanguang Church, who only appeared in the records of the Silver Eyes! You actually meet me here! Although this is a miraculous encounter, it is for the sake of my lord Ai Luke. ! I wait..."

"No... let's get to the point, let's get straight to the point, shall we?"

"Huh? Is it? It's really boring..."

Skull, Lord Black Candle withdrew the magic power and made the pressure of the magic power disappear in an instant. The eye sockets that were full of purple light and exuded boundless power suddenly dimmed. I don’t know how to do it. Somewhat disappointed.

Although Yong Ye didn't know this **** of the earth, the other party used words like "I, you" when he spoke before, but now he came here deliberately and suddenly turned into "I, you", which is obviously too much. It's pretending.

However, the strange character of this earth **** is good. Compared with these things, he is more concerned about why this earth **** stays here, and it is... this ghost.

"...Although we haven't seen it, I have seen your murals. You should have a shell, right? It looks like... I don't know what to say, in short, it should have skin and flesh, and it's a human being. type?"

"Isn't it the person next to you who did the harm! I haven't had enough time to regenerate my body in a hundred years. As you can see, I don't even have half a tear duct, yet I feel like crying?"

"...Even so, five hundred years is enough to recover, right?"

"It's enough to wake up for ten years, but just after waking up, I encountered a situation where I had to use strength. At first, I had to kill all the beasts nearby who wanted to treat me as a snack, and then I had to lift the continent and continue to this day. , there is no time to recover! Thanks to this, as you can see, I have been living to shame for four hundred years."

The black skull on the throne said indignantly, while jumping, dexterously jumping on the throne, posing as the **** of the earth, although... he does look a bit funny, and there is only one skull left, is this possible? Even living is a problem.

"Okay, okay, you are unlucky, but compared to this... Are the Marquis Cui Ding and Uncle Honghu not there?"

The character of this earth **** is so strange that it makes Yong Ye feel quite abnormal, at least compared to Cui Ning Hou... Funny? But it really is more important, although he really wants to sigh why those people who have lived for more than 500 years are all people who write about hemiplegia, and he and William at least have a complete body, the **** of the earth in front of them is even more miserable now, only one skull remains...

Well, it's a skill to have only one skull left.

"Who knows where the two of them went? But...if they appear, things will be troublesome. Now this floating island continent should be abandoned."

"How to say?"

"Well... Back then, it was Marquis Cui Ning who wanted to purge the human race, and the one who agreed with it was Uncle Hong Hu. The two of them looked down on lives other than their own, and didn't care how many lives there were on this continent."

Lord Black Candle could imagine that if Uncle Honghu found out that he was using the soul of the Lord God to hold up the world, he would be furious and scolded him for being a useless person and wasting time doing meaningless things.

And the Marquis Cui Ning, who is more cruel to life, may be able to cut open the second floating island, which is the largest secret realm of the floating continent group, and also the quiet sanctuary, with a straightforward sword, sinking the entire continent group.

After that, Duke Heizhu also explained that the current specific situation, combined with his miserable appearance, Yong Ye felt that the credibility was still very high.

"...It looks like each other's situation is very bad."

After trying to understand things and figure out what was going on, Yong Ye looked at the skull in front of him and couldn't help but feel a little bit of pity on each other, but he still had a lot of questions to ask, but compared to him, he was Mr. Black Candle. One step open.

"I heard that you killed Marquis Cui Ning? Is this true?"

"For the time being, although he is not dead, and he put a curse on me before he died, can I ask you to help solve it if possible? Are we on the same front now? We all have to protect this floating island world."

Even if he has no power, the current Lord Black Candle still has knowledge beyond Eternal Night, so he feels that Lord Black Candle should be able to lift the curse, and from the current standpoint, it is not a big problem to help him. There is no reason for the two sides to fight.

At least... when Hei Zhugong didn't know that human beings were still alive, that was indeed the case.

"This is..."

Hei Zhugong frowned, looking a little embarrassed.

"Can't it be solved?"

"Who do you think I am? I, who originally possessed boundless power and indomitable power, even if I end up with such a playful and majestic yet humble appearance, I am far superior to Cui Dinghou and Honghu Bo in terms of magic! "

Yong Ye's deliberate suspicion made Duke Heizhu jump up and down, and he looked really... quite playful and funny.

"Then let's consider the issue of cancellation? After all, we are an alliance."
