Bright!

If running away just now was just a thought, then after hearing this cry, he had a complete reason to run away.

"Big brother is calling me, why don't I go? It's my responsibility, okay..."

He glanced at the tree of souls at his feet with some pity.

Leaving such an ungrown soul tree here without the help of myself and the Night Demon.

There is a high probability that it will be destroyed by the strange things coming.

Even if he was lucky enough to survive, he would be discovered by Tian Rui Lifeng's gang members who were cleaning up the battlefield.

As for what will happen after being discovered, that is not what Xu Le can predict.

All in all it shouldn't be a bad situation.

"Perhaps the corpse here can prompt the tree to produce another fruit, and then some lucky person discovers it and eats the fruit recklessly.

Then...I can't seem to make it up. "

The strange thing in front of him was getting closer and closer. Xu Le tightened the black gun in his hand and opened the dark vortex.

"Farewell!"

Arriving at the dark place that had not been seen for a long time, the night demons all knelt down.

This situation made Xu Le a little embarrassed.

It's one thing outside, but it's another thing in the dark place.

After all, this is the eldest brother's territory, and he, the younger brother, cannot cross it, not to mention the Night Fury's strength is really no joke.

According to Chi Xiao's previous attitude and vigilance towards puppets.

Night Fury is at least one level better than Chi Xiao.

Here, he is the honest man Xu Le.

"Hello, brothers. Thank you for your hard work, brothers. I'm going to visit my eldest brother first. You guys are busy!"

Xu Le chatted awkwardly with these night demons for a few words, regardless of whether they could understand him or not, but he spoke first as a courtesy.

If you think about it carefully, they should be able to understand it.

Just like the Dark Tide, Night Demon can understand his own orders.

When walking among night demons, they will spontaneously make way for Xu Le.

Halfway through, Xu Le suddenly realized that he had not lit the flashlight in advance this time...

Oh no, it should be that the black staff in his hand was not lit.

He suddenly has the ability to see at night?

It doesn't seem to be the case. This ability to see darkness clearly seems to only appear when you are here.

When dark clouds cover the sky during the Kuroshio, he does not have night vision and needs to be illuminated by thunder to see.

It's obviously different from the current situation.

"Forget it, it's useless to study this. After all, this is not my place."

Walking to the place where the fire was, the Night Fury seemed to have been waiting there for a long time.

In the past, her eyes always stayed on the fire, but this time she watched Xu Le coming.

"You haven't been here for a long time."

"Well, I've been busy recently, and I was assassinated last time. I moved around a few places, and I haven't settled down until recently, so I didn't come here..."

Xu Le was a little worried that his explanation was useless, and secretly glanced at Night Fury.

However, Night Fury didn't seem to want to hold him accountable, and just nodded lightly.

"Have you been assassinated? As your strength and status increase, unless you hide yourself perfectly, this kind of thing will only happen more and more."

"Indeed."

Night Fury looked Xu Le up and down:

"People safe is good."

After receiving a little attention from his elder brother, Xu Le was obviously in a good mood.

"Thank you Lord Night Fury for your concern. Is there something wrong with calling me here this time?"

Night Fury had already retracted her gaze, and her eyes were locked on the swaying firelight again.

"There is indeed something I need you to help me with."

"It is obligatory." Xu Le responded immediately.

He knew very well that with the Night Fury's strength, the things he was asked to help with should not be things that required fighting.

In addition, the Night Fury usually takes good care of him, so he naturally has to show his loyalty at this time.

"Sir, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask me, but my ability is somewhat lacking, so..."

"Don't worry, your combat power is still relatively weak, so I don't plan to let you participate in combat-related actions.

What I want to ask of you this time is mainly the bugs that fell during the Red Moon Tribulation. "

Xu Le felt a chill in his heart when he heard Ye Sha mention the bugs.

"Did Lord Night Fury notice it too?"

"Well, you should know that those bugs are outside creatures."

"Yes, I know."

"The Red Moon is also an intruder from the outside world, although it has been hovering in this world for many years, with many names and many disguises.

But the essence has never changed. Red Moon has invaded the world, so for Deep Blue, outside invaders are the most dangerous species.

These bugs suddenly appeared during the Red Moon Tribulation. I felt that they must have been summoned or lured by some kind of power.

Just investigate this matter in your city and tell me the details. "

The Night Fury rarely spoke so many words at once, and never gave orders or tasks.

Now that there was such a small task, Xu Le naturally nodded in agreement.

"No problem, are there any time requirements?"

"Before the next Kuroshio, there are no other requirements. It doesn't matter even if you can't complete it. It's more important to protect yourself."

Night Fury's instructions made Xu Le's heart warm.

The favor of a boss is definitely different, because under normal circumstances, the boss does not need to pay attention to you.

If you die, you will die, and it won't have much impact on the boss.

So in this case, being able to be noticed by a big boss is really a gratifying thing, and it can be regarded as a reflection of self-worth.

"Don't worry, Lord Night Fury, I finally have a mission, and I will definitely do it well."

"Do your best."

"Does Lord Night Fury have anything else to do?"

"Have you prepared a new story? You haven't been here for a long time, so..."

As Night Fury said, he even glanced at Xu Le hesitantly, like a child who was worried that others wouldn't tell her a story.

A man like Xu Le would hate to see others look at him like this.

"Of course, every time I come here I have a complete story prepared."

"That's great. Every story you tell will enrich this place."

"Lord Night Fury is so complimentary. My stories are just ordinary stories."

"No, your story is different from others. No, I haven't summoned anyone else for a long, long time."

Xu Le was also slightly startled when he saw the reminiscing look on Ye Fury's face.

Haven't summoned anyone else for a long time?

Exclusively favored?

Well, if you think about it carefully, summoning is not a word like pampering at all.

The former Night Fury told him personally that he had eaten many warlocks...

Eat...well.

"It seems that Lord Night Fury likes my story. This is my honor."

"Yes, I like it very much. What's the story today?"

"Well, can Lord Night Fury accept tragedy?"

"tragedy?"

"It's death and an unsatisfactory ending."

"Shouldn't death be the destination of everything? For me, death should be the ultimate perfection."

"Well, if you understand it this way, then I think Lord Night Fury will like this story."

"Well, let's get started."

"This story is called "Cyberpunk-Edgewalker". The story begins with a student named David Martinez..."

Xu Le liked this story very much and also liked the ending of the story, so he also hoped that Night Fury would like this story.

He said seriously, and Night Fury listened carefully.

It is really a very harmonious atmosphere, just like a teacher telling stories to students.

Night Fury rarely interrupts Xu Le when he is telling stories. Even if she has many questions, she will not interrupt him, even if she is already very curious.

Xu Le felt that this was not because Night Fury was very polite, and she definitely didn't know how to learn manners.

Xu Le guessed that she just didn't want the story to be interrupted.

"After David died, Lucy went to the moon alone and... saw the sun on the moon."

At this point, the story of the Edgewalker has ended. Night Fury thought about the story for a while and nodded slightly.

"These people... feel like the Tianrui Lifeng mercenaries in your human world. They have no choice."

"Yeah, the struggle of the little people is really cruel. They don't have a good choice from beginning to end."

The Night Fury began to think again, and her eyes blinked a few times.

It’s hard to imagine that this little girl next door would be one of the masters of the ancient Yinduo world, the source of darkness, the Night Fury.

Night Fury thought about it for a long time, and it seemed that there was still something in this story that she could recall.

"You seem to have opened my eyes to a different perspective."

"Why do you say that?"

"I would not have interpreted the world from this perspective before. After hearing this story, I feel that ordinary people are not so ignorant anymore."

"Yes, a lot of times, they have no choice."

"For your own dreams?"

"Yes, for your own dreams, for the dreams of your loved ones, if you can complete them, even if your life is very short, it will be considered a kind of fulfillment."

This is a touching story, although many people say it is a pity, but it has great staying power.

But Xu Le himself felt that the story should end here.

Although the ending is full of sadness, there is no regret at all.

"You liked this story?"

"Yes, I like it very much, so I shared it with Lord Night Fury."

"What do you like in it?"

"Finish it. Although David had no choice from the beginning, he accomplished what he wanted to accomplish. This is what makes me most gratified."

"Do you have similar thoughts?"

"No, at least not yet." Xu Le denied this statement.

Night Fury was slightly surprised, she thought Xu Le would also want to become such a tragic figure.

“Because I can see hope, this is the difference between me and the protagonist of the story.

He had no choice but to make this choice because he couldn't see any hope.

And I... am full of hope, the future is still bright, I may reach the highest point in the world, under the witness of Lord Night Fury. "

When Xu Le said these words, there was even some light on his face.

These lights illuminate the dark place and also illuminate the Night Fury.

She never thought that she would be touched like this by a human being.

"Under my witness, will you climb to the highest point in the world?"

"There's a chance."

"You do have such an opportunity, under my witness..."

"Yes."

"Then...did Lucy die in the end?"

"Why do Lord Night Furies think so?"

Xu Le might have been doubtful in the past, but not now.

Although Night Fury looks a little dull, she is actually very good at paying attention to details. Lucy's ending has actually been mentioned in the details of the story.

"At the beginning of the story, Lucy herself said that humans would not be able to withstand the sun's rays on the moon.

At the end of the story, Lucy saw the sun and the sun on the moon. "

"Master Night Fury is so perceptive..."

"Besides, I remember you mentioned at the beginning of the story that a woman died on the moon. What kind of woman would die on the moon? It's easy to imagine."

"Indeed, that's how I understand it."

"It's indeed a sad ending."

"Master Night Fury, don't you like this story?"

"No, I still like it very much. I always thought you should be a very happy person, but why do you always tell such sad stories?"

The Night Fury's question made Xu Le hesitate a little.

Maybe he wasn't happy enough before.

"There weren't so many happy things before, but things have slowly gotten better in the past two years."

"That's good. A heavy psychological burden will slow down your growth. That's not good."

"clear."

Xu Le has been here for a long time, and now it's time to leave.

But before leaving, he still had some questions he wanted to ask the Night Fury.

"Lord Night Fury, during the Red Moon Tribulation, I used trees and weird corpses to create two fruits..."

Seeing Xu Le hesitate to speak, Ye Sha shook his head slightly and added some firewood to the fire.

"Those are your abilities and your unique reflection."

"What's going on with those night demons?" When Xu Le said this, he actually questioned the meaning of the night demons.

However, the Night Fury did not get angry because of this, and just said calmly:

"You are the one I like."

After hearing this sentence, all the previous doubts disappeared.

Is this necessary? It is necessary for Xu Le.

"Master Night Fury's attitude makes me feel that you might..."

"Death is the destination, but I don't die that easily."

The conversation between the two parties resulted in silence. Xu Le felt that he had said the wrong thing, so he changed the topic:

"I seem to be unable to control the growth trajectory of the fruit, and those two fruits eventually turned into Night Devil Fruits.

The way I originally envisioned them, they were supposed to grow into something more unique. "

"That's because you haven't created anything yet and can only place your will on darkness, so the fruit you create can only be the Night Demon Fruit."

"The will that created everything? The Creator?"

"It's not that scary, and it's not that great. Even if it's a mother tree, it can't be said to be a creator."

"Understood."

"Actually... you can try to let it grow freely."

"What's the meaning?"

"Nature is the true creator."
