It's a hell game, who can still be a human being?

Chapter 537 Red Ghost: Where are you from, stranger?

“That’s very life-like.”

Liu Zheng gave a thumbs up.

"To be wronged when alive and to be wronged after death is too much of a wrong."

Black Skull said bitterly.

Obviously, it had a past that it couldn't bear to look back on.

Liu Zheng wisely didn't ask any further questions.

"I know you are not short of money, but I am also short of money. However."

Black Skull looked around and took out his cell phone.

"Look at this."

He looked closely and saw a shallow sea covered with seaweed on the screen of his mobile phone.

These golden seaweeds have different shapes and at first glance it is easy to mistake them for different species, but as soon as you look at the round air sacs growing all over their bodies, you will know that they are all the same thing.

These oxygen-filled air sacs provide buoyancy for the seaweed, allowing it to float on the surface of the sea, swaying left and right like a horse wagging its tail in boredom.

However, in such a harmonious scene, there is a discordant existence.

Its shape looks similar to other seaweeds, and it also has round air sacs on its branches and leaves.

However, its color is pitch black, and there is a huge mouthpart in the center, with blade-like teeth hidden in the folds of the mouthpart.

Needless to say, once prey falls into this big mouth, these teeth will immediately pop out and cut the prey into pieces.

"what is this?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"It's you."

Black Skull asked.

"Brother Hei, are you saying this is the Black Young?"

He reacted immediately.

"Yes."

Black Skull nodded.

"But it doesn't look like a sheep at all."

"The Dark Young isn't a sheep to begin with. Look at you. Apart from your hooves, do you have anything to do with a sheep?"

Black Skull complained.

"Well, what you said seems to make sense."

"Of course, this one is indeed different from the ordinary black goat kid. It is a subspecies we discovered recently. The official name is 'Dark Algae.'"

"According to the test, the vitality of this 'Dark Algae' is more than ten times that of an ordinary black goat kid, and there is also a high life energy core in its body."

Black Skull continued.

"heart?"

"Anyway, it's something that looks like a heart. Aren't you a hybrid of a Black Young? If you can eat its heart, your strength will definitely increase dramatically, and you may even reach the next level."

Black Skull tempted.

And Liu Zheng was indeed tempted.

"So where is this dark algae now?"

he asked.

"Still in that sea."

“It’s a bit far.”

Liu Zheng hesitated.

It's a bit embarrassing to say it, but he is actually a homebody. He only goes out for work. When he is not working, it is common for him to stay at home for ten days or half a month without going out.

"It's not far, just along the coast, and it only takes two hours to drive there."

Black Skull said.

"Two hours isn't that far. It's not even enough time for me to deliver a takeaway."

A normal takeout order takes forty minutes to an hour. If you want it to take longer, you have to ask someone to help you order, or you can place an order from the restaurant.

These two hours are just the journey, plus the time to kill the dark algae and clean up afterward, it will be at least three hours.

Among Liu Zheng's connections, there are only a handful of people who are capable of ordering a three-hour takeout, and they are all earthbound spirits.

Taking this into account, the actual delivery time is five hours.

In five hours, even the fisherman would be able to break his old bones.

"Of course it will take me two hours to drive. But yours will probably only take less than an hour."

Black Skull glanced at the Koenigsegg One-1 and said.

"Is there a map?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Did not bring."

Black Skull shook his head.

"Then use mine."

He said without question, and took out the map.

This map for deliverymen is only clear in the urban area, but it is quite perfunctory outside the urban area, not to mention the coastal areas.

But at least the scale is correct and the distance can be judged.

"here."

The black skeleton studied it for a while, then stretched out his finger bone and tapped on the map.

"it is good."

Liu Zheng returned to the sports car and showed the map to the driver.

"Colonel, how long will it take to get here?"

"How long do you need it?"

The driver asked back.

"The sooner the better."

"Twenty thousand yuan, arriving in twenty minutes."

The driver thought for a moment and said.

"What about the fifty thousand dollars?"

he asked immediately.

"Fifty thousand dollars is also twenty minutes."

The driver raised his eyelids and said.

"Okay, twenty minutes is twenty minutes."

If the delivery time is one hour, then there are still forty minutes left, plus ten legendary delivery man's ration cigarettes, that's seventy minutes, which should be enough.

In this case, there would be no need for the fisherman, plane tree and other earthbound spirits to help with the ordering; Guokou Tangzi and the others could do it.

"Does Dark Algae have any weaknesses?"

Liu Zheng returned to the black skeleton and asked.

"Given its rarity, we haven't done any destructive testing on it. However, we did find a species of fish in the area and found traces of dark algae in their bodies."

"According to experts' speculation, this fish should be the natural enemy of dark algae and an important factor in controlling the expansion of dark algae."

Black Skull replied.

"Can you get it?"

"It's not a big problem. The meat of that fish isn't very good, but it looks good. The department is considering breeding it as an ornamental fish. If you want, I'll find a way to get you two when I get back."

Black Skull said.

"Row."

Don't fishermen like to study fish? Give this kind of fish to him, maybe he can find out something and easily get rid of the dark algae.

"Buzz buzz!"

The fly head suddenly flew over, saluted them, and then made a series of calls.

"It said that all the boxes had been moved down except the ones you asked to leave behind."

Black Skull translated.

"Then I'll go down. Brother Hei, do you want to go down and take a look?"

Liu Zheng invited.

"I'd better forget it. Even though I can't smell it, it's disgusting enough to look at. If it gets dirty with something else, the kids won't let me hold it when I get home."

Black Skull refused mercilessly.

"OK then."

He shrugged, turned, walked to the manhole, and climbed down the ladder.

Walking to the Xiashui River, I saw boxes of takeout neatly stacked.

He nodded with satisfaction. Although these fly people looked dirty, they worked very efficiently. No wonder they could become the exclusive temporary workers of the Sanitation Department.

"Why did you prepare all these drinks and desserts? Is the Ama coming to the sewer again?"

The fisherman asked with a hint of anticipation.

"Do you really want your daughter to be hunted down by a bald donkey again?"

"how is this possible?"

"Then what is she doing in the sewer?"

Liu Zheng asked back.

"Can't she come and see me, her father?" the fisherman blew his beard and glared.

"You shouldn't ask me this question, you should ask her."

He spread out his tentacles.

"You are my daughter's friend, who else should I ask if not you?"

The fisherman almost said it out loud.

"I am just the worm in her stomach. I don't know what she is thinking. Okay, okay, when I finish my work, I will arrange for the Ama and the others to have a party in the sewer, okay?"

Liu Zheng said.

"Why them? That yellow-haired guy is coming too?"

The fisherman frowned.

"Why can't you come? They did a great job protecting the Ama last time. Besides, the Ama is not you. She wants to live in the sun. Don't you want her to make more friends and be happy every day?"

"Humph, you've already finished talking, what else can I say?"

The fisherman turned away and ignored him.

"I haven't finished yet. When the time comes, you can clean up a clean place and put some nice furniture, ornaments, and flower arrangements. And prepare some fish that looks and tastes good. When the time comes, you can grill the fish for them yourself. They will enjoy the meal, the female divers will also be proud, and you can also show the demeanor of a good father. Isn't it wonderful?"

Liu Zheng continued.

"How could furniture, ornaments, and flower arrangements come from a sewer? Do you think this is a garbage disposal plant?"

The fisherman couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Don't worry about that. I'll get the stuff for you and find experts for you. Just follow their instructions and do the hard work."

He waved his tentacles.

"Humph, at the rate you're getting yourself into trouble, I won't even be able to wait until my 500th birthday to see you finish your work."

The fisherman complained.

"Then ask God to lend you another 500 years. Don't live in vain. Help me contact the sewer. I want to find the Red Ghost."

Liu Zheng urged.

"You are acting like my master now."

The fisherman glared at him and reached into the sewer.

"Human, what about the things I asked you to do?"

After a moment, he spoke with his eyes closed, and the white tumor eyeball on his head opened quietly.

"I have further deepened my relationship with the gravekeeper. Once I complete his commission, I can ask him about the whereabouts of the escaped will."

Liu Zheng replied calmly.

"What does he want you to do?"

The sewer asked.

"He wants me to rob graves."

The gravekeeper asked him to do this just to get the job done and didn't ask him to keep it a secret, so it should be okay if he told him.

"Oh, go to the right."

The sewer raised his hand and said.

"Ok."

Liu Zheng looked calm, but he rolled his eyes in his heart.

When the sewer asked this, he thought he was going to give him some help, but this is what happened?
As expected, most leaders in the world are corrupt.

After walking a little further, he soon found the security door on the wall.

Liu Zheng knocked on the door, and after more than ten seconds the security door opened automatically.

"Uncle Electrician."

As expected, he was greeted by the little girl, Tonya, and the red ghost behind her whose emotions could not be seen.

"I brought some food and drinks for the children. I'll leave them by the river over there until I can move them over here."

Liu Zheng said to the Red Ghost.

"No, you go in first, I'll do it."

The Red Ghost shook his head.

"Row."

He didn't hesitate and picked up Tonya and walked into the shelter.

"Uncle Electrician!"

Just like before, the children rushed over enthusiastically.

Only this time, there was a short and tall figure missing from the crowd.

"I'm sorry, kids, I lost Paul."

Liu Zheng said somewhat dejectedly.

Paul had already sacrificed himself, leaving only a pieced-together body to enjoy the final quiet in the shelter, but in the end he burned himself completely for him, leaving no trace of his existence.

What Liu Zheng did for Paul was not worth it at all, but he did it anyway.

"A soldier will not be lost, Comrade Electrician. Paul just went to where he should go."

A slightly hoarse voice said.

Liu Zheng turned around and saw a little girl looking at him quietly.

She was wearing a blue and white striped sailor suit and a light gray skirt. Her hair was neatly combed only to her ears. She looked young and capable.

"Are you Lida? Or should I call you Comrade Ustinovich?"

Liu Zheng remembered her name.

"It doesn't matter, Comrade Electrician. The name is just a code name, just like we call you Comrade Electrician."

Lida said calmly.

"Oh. You know what? You're actually quite cute when you act like an adult."

He suddenly stretched out his tentacles and started to ruffle Lida's hair.

Such an abrupt action caught Lida off guard. By the time she reacted, her head had become a sloppy doghouse, and even the glued scalp was wrinkled.

"what!!!"

Lida let out a soul-stirring scream that nearly pierced through the sanctuary.

"Яубьютебя, ублюдок (I'm going to kill you, you bastard)!"

She pounced on Liu Zheng with her teeth and claws bared, like a ferocious female leopard or more like a caracal.

Of course Liu Zheng would not let her catch him and fled the crime scene before she could scream.

The two of them chased each other in the classroom, knocking over the tables, chairs and benches.

"Good job, Lida, kick his heels with your little shoes."

"Mr. Electrician, she's coming from the left."

"Don't throw my pencil case!"

Seeing this, the children applauded and cheered, and divided into two groups to act as military advisors.

"Okay, stop making trouble."

The farce continued until the Red Ghost returned.

Lida reluctantly loosened her teeth and jumped off Liu Zheng's body.

"It hurts, it hurts, your scalp is so loose, why are your teeth so tight? Did you secretly give yourself calcium supplements?"

The latter said while rubbing the teeth marks on his face.

"Say it again!"

Lida raised her little eyebrows and was about to have another outburst.

"Okay, Lida, you're a good kid, don't argue with adults."

The Red Ghost smoothed Lida's hair and spoke soothing words.

"As for you, I asked you to come in to help with the work, not to be the boss of the kids."

It nodded at Liu Zheng and said.

"Playing with others is also a kind of work."

Liu Zheng argued cunningly.

"Lida, Seryosha, go and get five boxes out of the warehouse."

Red Ghost ordered.

"Okay, mentor."

A tall boy with a long face stood up and pulled Lida towards the warehouse, while the latter did not forget to look back and cast an angry look at him.

"I thought we would live peacefully in the shelter until the end of Metropolis..."

Red Ghost said with his back to Liu Zheng.

"I shouldn't have disturbed you."

Liu Zheng put away his annoying smile and said.

"You did disturb us, but not unnecessarily."

The Red Ghost shook his head.

"No soldier would be willing to be a living epitaph, and would rather perish with the enemy. They were great in life, and you made them glorious again after death."

"As both their leader and their mentor, I owe you my gratitude."

"So, where are you from? A stranger."

It turned around, looked directly into Liu Zheng's eyes and asked slowly.
