"Well, I didn't ask anything, but you can go ask him."
"Okay, so when are you going to kill that guy?"
"Not right now. Let's fulfill one of his wishes before sending him on his way. For example, let him communicate normally with his companions."
"Isn't that cruel?"
"That was his wish. How could it be cruel? It was the punishment he deserved, no matter what his goal was."
"It seems so."
Steve, who had been dozing off from beginning to end, yawned, looked at the completed word that finally lit up on the task panel, and decisively clicked return. He still had things to do and had no time to dawdle here.
With Steve's return, the cell people who had been slacking off also disappeared from this world.
Sora was about to leave as well, but Barbatos said goodbye to him seriously, which delayed him temporarily.
But it only delayed him for a short while. Tony Stark did not hesitate any longer and left as well. Soon, only Ghost and Doctor were left in this world.
The ghost took one last look and followed.
Only the doctor was left standing in front of Dr. Zombie King, looking at this madman who was already imagining the future. He greeted Sunflower and told her that next time he caught that guy Dave, he must arrest him.
Then he left too.
The world became quiet again, but everything was completely different from when they came.
263 The hot spring after the mission is the best
The warm and comfortable hot springs always make people reluctant to leave, especially when the decorations in the originally spacious cave have been renovated and become brighter. It is filled with a wide variety of special foods, including some common mushrooms and meats, as well as some rough pastries, fruits and vegetables.
Those pastries were various seeds that Ghost asked Tony Stark for. He said that he got these seeds by exchanging them with a country in the east. He also knew how to make biological weapons or special plant-based energy weapons like sunflowers, but if you were talking about edible ones, he would be completely confused.
However, he believed that science has no borders, so after giving out enough things and exchanging the cultivation and theory of wheat seeds and seeds from the other party, he gave most of them to the ghost, leaving only some for experiments.
So the bugs built fortifications to block the wind and sand from the Howling Cliffs and cultivated fields on it. After learning about this, Wilson gave them a few completely unreasonable tillers, which could turn any land into fertile soil no matter how poor it was, and then plant some fruits and vegetables on it.
Since the number of tillers here is not as large as that of wheat seeds, fruits and vegetables have become food consumed by the upper class. Only a small number of people who have made huge contributions or the rich who have a lot of Geo can obtain them.
After all, sweet fruits and vegetables are much more delicious than single mushrooms. In fact, the ghost doesn't care much about these things. What it cares about is the hot springs. As for those foods, Tony Stark gave it so many plants that its appetite has been completely whetted. Although it doesn't feel that those roughly processed foods are tasteless, at least it no longer has a special desire to eat them.
These foods came with the hot springs. As the underground world expanded, several more hot springs were dug out. As for the original hot springs, they were carefully packaged. Only those who put in enough work were eligible to enjoy them, otherwise thousands of insects would squeeze them so tightly that no one could get through.
They did not take up all the remaining hot springs, but left them there in a purely wild state for other insects to rest. However, the environment was not very pleasant. There were no comfortable blankets, warm lights, let alone fruits and vegetables.
As for the renovation plan for the hot springs, the person in charge was not Bumblebee, but the so-called aristocracy that had revived. She originally wanted to write a big cross on the plan, but was stopped by Green.
"You can use those weak and incompetent nobles to motivate the common people. When their value is fully exploited, or when their greedy hands try to reach higher, you can free up your hands to deal with them. I believe our cohesion among the people will be greatly enhanced, and the scarce money will become abundant, and our hands will not be dirty."
As he spoke, he elegantly supported the table with one hand, tapping his slender knuckles lightly, with a half-smile on his face.
Like a monster that chooses people to eat.
"What do you think?"
If it was Bumblebee who had just been exposed to politics, she might have rejected it outright without any possibility, but now she just looked at him deeply and did not refuse.
After all, she had no confidence to refuse. Compared with the scarce supplies, there were too many things that needed to be repaired and maintained, especially some exquisite decorations, which were a luxury and waste, but it had to be done.
To maintain the existence of this country.
They use unscrupulous extravagance to maintain the superficial beauty of this country. If it weren't for the ghosts who kept sending things in various ways, this false beauty would soon be torn to pieces.
To put it bluntly, Bumblebee was too immature, so those nobles took advantage of him and opened a loophole that should not have been opened. It was meaningless for him to cure this luxurious atmosphere now, just like after seeing the sunshine, one would not want to curl up in the dark anymore. Warm and gentle lights, soft beds, warm food, and a peaceful and happy home, no one was willing to leave such a beautiful day, and any reduction would inevitably lead to dissatisfaction.
Even if this was a morbid squandering, Bumblebee had no choice but to grit his teeth and hold on.
Even this method can be considered mild. If the treatment is really cut and the luxurious enjoyment is cancelled, there will always be some dissatisfied guys who will gather together to resist. Green can't be so easy to talk to. By then, I'm afraid he will kill everyone and leave no one alive.
Except for the ghost bathing peacefully here, there was another one lying there with his head resting on his arms, just like the other one. The movements of the two, one big and one small, were so synchronized.
Green also reluctantly went into the water and cleaned up the dew. It was more like he sat on the shore and put his feet in the water, then stared at the ghost intently.
By the way, look at purity again with gritted teeth in your eyes.
Green really didn't want to go into the water. Just touching it made his scalp tingle. If Chunchun wasn't around, he could just move a small stool and sit there looking at his father. Then, with the other's permission, he could boldly touch her once or twice and delicately feel the warm touch like jade. But Chunchun was there, and if he reached out his hand, he would probably be blocked by the other.
Just as his father didn't care about his caress and touch, it naturally didn't care about the pure obstruction of Green.
The ghost really likes this kind of rest, it is so peaceful that it seems as if the whole body is melting into it. The clear pool water that was originally slightly milky white gradually turned into a deep black color, but before the black color spread much.
Chunchun reacted quickly and drew a magic circle. The pool water that was originally polluted by the abyss evolved into pure soul water again. The ghost who was lying there with his eyes closed and enjoying himself was also awakened by a sudden realization.
The void curled up behind the mask yawned lazily, and her expression became lazy as well. The excess black void squeezed out of her eye sockets and slid down like tears, but was absorbed back before it fell into the spring water.
It shook itself as if to shake off the moisture on it, then turned over and slowly sank into the hot spring water, leaving only two pointed corners sticking out. Bubbles rose one after another from where it sank, as if it was falling into some deeper sleep.
The Void's semi-sleep caused a chain reaction. Even Chunchun couldn't help but lie down in the hot spring water sleepily. Then Green took advantage of the fact that both of them were asleep and prepared to grab his father into his arms, but before he could do anything, he was grabbed by another person.
So Chunchun and Green just stared at each other, appearing to be friendly on the surface but secretly wanting to break each other's wrists in a crazy stalemate and struggle.
264 Tram and the Unlucky Man
When the ghost finally decided to come out of the hot spring, the hot spring was inevitably infected. If it were in the past, it might have absorbed all the infected parts into its body in one breath, and then cleaned up the remaining parts and waited for new spring water to emerge.
But now it always feels that this method is weird.
Naturally it is difficult to understand why bath water cannot be drunk.
But that doesn't stop it from drinking.
So the one in charge of cleaning up the aftermath was naturally the diligent and conscientious Pure. After the ghost rolled around in a blanket a few times to dry off the moisture and left, the bugs who came in to clean up were stunned after seeing the brand new hot spring room, where even the fruits and vegetables on the high ground had been upgraded and updated.
The roads here are quite wide, but apart from the street lights, there is no sign of life.
But this place was not originally intended for human habitation.
This is a newly opened path leading to the tram.
Although the tram is basically completed, it cannot accommodate too many bugs. Therefore, except for a small number of bugs, most bugs still rely on stag beetles or their own legs to travel around Hallownest.
At this moment, the three of them were walking on this spacious road. There was no reason, they just did whatever they thought of, and they just followed the actions of the ghosts.
The little knight walked in front, staggering forward as if he were drunk.
Seeing that the ghost was about to fall, Green and Chunchun both jumped to the ground and stretched out their hands. Before the ghost fell, they stood up shakily.
So Green and Chunchun acted as if nothing had happened and dusted off their bodies.
The reason why it was shaking was certainly not because it had drunk alcohol, but because it had been too reckless in taking a hot spring bath before.
The scattered souls in the hot spring were absorbed into the void without leaving a drop. If he spread out the void casually, those souls would naturally not even make a splash, or it would not matter if they were absorbed slowly, as they would eventually be assimilated by the void.
But the ghost has now collected almost all the void into the container, and the souls it absorbs at one time are too large. Those souls that it cannot squeeze can only sway in its body like water.
At least it cannot be digested in a short time.
It was not until it reached the edge of the station that the ghost shook its head slightly, and the sound of the water sloshing inside gradually weakened, and it regained its balance.
The station has been completely renovated. I don’t know why, but the light is even brighter.
It seems that all insects have a strange understanding that the stronger the light, the stronger the civilization, and the darker and deeper the place, the more barbaric it must be.
Although it made no difference to Bumblebee, she still completed the transformation of Deep Nest with the support of Hera. Now it is almost completely completed. Ghost has not seen it yet, but Yan is indeed very curious.
After all, until now, after the entire Hallownest was completely renovated, it had only visited Dirtmouth and Crossroads. The former was the most prosperous commercial area and the residence of most bugs, while the latter was a good place for a walk with a combination of warehouses, food gardens and other functions.
I heard that the Fool's Arena has been completely transformed into an entertainment venue that brings together entertainment hot springs and even some gambling elements. There is no trace of its previous appearance.
This time it just planned to go there and have some fun.
Thinking of this, it glanced at the few Geos in the void. Ever since the arena was closed, a large amount of its Geos had been converted into energy that could never be used up, and its originally rich pockets suddenly became empty.
The tram ticket is not expensive and it also has permanent use rights.
It now began to miss those reckless young men who rushed towards it as soon as they saw it. After all, they all had some Geo on them, and a little bit of Geo would eventually add up.
Just as it was thinking about some inappropriate things, the swarms of bees on the ghost seemed to have sensed something. They were rubbing their hands in anticipation, wishing they could turn into gangsters on the spot. If anyone with Geo passed by, they would definitely rush out, beat them up, and then rob them of all their money.
What? Legal ethics?
God's will is all will.
With a ding, the tram finally arrived. Not only was the platform renovated, but the old trams were also renovated. They were much taller and longer than the ones the ghosts had ridden before. A hurried noble was getting off from it, but before he could take two more steps, he was surrounded by an overwhelming swarm of bees.
The ghost, who was distracted, woke up immediately, but it was too late. The swarm of bees formed a huge fist and knocked the ghost to the ground. They took away all of the ghost's belongings except clothes in an unreasonable manner, and then carried those things around the ghost as if to seek credit.
The ghost just looked at all this with a confused look on his face.
Just when the ghost felt guilty and wanted to help the nobleman up and heal him with his soul.
The noble insect lying on the ground unconscious and unknown whether it was dead or alive was soon completely reduced to ashes. Now, nothing was left except black ashes.
After doing all this, Green calmly withdrew his hand and extinguished the flames.
After all, he knew the nobleman, and he was also on the list of plans for cleaning up. It didn't matter whether it was earlier or later. Well, it would only be a few months earlier.
Then a gust of wind blew over, and not even a trace of black ash was left of the noble on the ground. Even his weak and pitiful soul was blown away by this strange wind, without leaving anything behind, not even a trace of breath.
The final ending was naturally pure. He completely wiped out the opponent's soul to prevent the opponent's soul fragments from falling into the hands of someone with ulterior motives. He also quietly covered up the traces of his actions.
It is best to deal with the dead properly, otherwise it will cause trouble for God.
The ghost looked at the bug that disappeared out of thin air and fell into a long confusion. It tilted its head and looked at so many messy things. Before it could raise the sign, it heard the tram make another ding sound.
Urging them to get on the bus quickly.
Now it is not like the past. There are only a few people who need it individually, so a tight schedule is naturally arranged. The ghost did not waste any more time and turned around to get on the car. The swarms of bees followed suit, stuffing the items into the void, and then returned to where they were supposed to be.
As for that unlucky guy, who cares? Who will remember him?
265 Fool's Arena
The road leading here has been widened, and the figures of the enthusiastic little guys before are gone. The layers of lights make this place as bright as day. Some insects coming and going cast thin shadows, as if they were nailed here.
They are gamblers who have lost everything. They have given up everything. When all the value has been squeezed out and only an empty shell is left, they are no longer able to escape from here.
The ghost walked through the team in a swaggering manner.
The passing insects looked at the ghost with surprise, and the patrolling guards shuddered and retracted their legs several times as they were about to step towards the stag beetle.
They wanted to inform Bumblebee, but they were afraid of ghosts, so they just pretended to be ostriches and acted as if they had seen nothing.
When they arrived at the Fool's Arena, which had been thoroughly renovated inside and out, the smiling host of the Arena turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye the moment they looked at him.
No matter how luxurious his clothes were, they couldn't hide his timid appearance. He had seen the other person before and knew him.
Before Hallownest became so prosperous, he would hang from the ceiling, mocking the warriors who came and went for the so-called honor. Ghosts were naturally included in his mockery.
Until the opponent completely conquers the original arena.
Although the ghost didn't say it, the bugs who originally managed the arena also thought of it as a warrior who was fanatically pursuing honor and battle.
But he still saw that the other party only used this place as a means to extract money, and all the battles were for the purpose of winning more efficiently and squeezing Geo more conveniently.
This discovery gave him a complete fear of ghosts.
A soldier full of honor will not even look at you as long as he is respectful enough and weak enough. However, if you dare to stand in the way of a person pursuing profit, you will definitely be crushed without leaving any residue.
What's more, the other party is now the god who saved Hallownest, and he has heard about Green, a complete madman. If he tries to take advantage of or disrespect him in the slightest, he will be burned to ashes.
At least three of the guys who used to drink with him to celebrate their wealth were burned to death by Green.
Purely in the rumors, he seemed a bit more benign than Green, but how many people who interfered in politics could be so kind? Especially those special knight formations that almost only obeyed his orders. And who wouldn't tremble in fear when hearing about their reputation?
Beads of sweat were almost dripping from his face like a waterfall, and he tried his best to maintain a fake smile to greet the three evil stars.
The ghost rushed in without realizing it. Even though it heard that the arena had been greatly renovated, it still showed great interest in it.
Purely following behind at a leisurely pace, Green, when passing by the trembling guy, looked at him with his scarlet pupils and outlined a sarcastic smile.
He mouthed the word "lucky" and didn't look back at the lucky coward. After all, compared to those nobles, this guy was just an insignificant little bug. He even had some brains and knew how to restrain himself. He was not included in the list of people who had to be destroyed because of his greed.
Then he didn't mind sparing the other person's life. After all, such a big country cannot rely solely on the few people at the top who work themselves to death. Without the foundation below, even the orders cannot be conveyed.
