   Chapter 910 Two hundred and one. The second remnant

   But getting further and further away from completing two other goals: Winter and Dark Cloud.

  The severe cold of winter threatens the survival of the trees, but it is difficult to make the jungle disappear. The real problem is the lingering dark clouds and hidden trouble: the plague of plants.

   They are the moat across the land where the remnants were taken away. Without the power of the remnant, the ordinary jungle will not be able to resist the destruction brought about by natural disasters.

   "What causes the dark clouds to form?"

   Ophelia couldn't answer Lu Li's question. Although as a scholar and as a library employee she can answer that it is formed by water vapor.

"Protect."

   The **** of the deep sea did not know when to look at the dark clouds covering the earth with them.

"what?"

  Lu Li's eyes fell to the lingering shadow under the cloak of the God of the Deep Sea.

   "Clouds protect the world from being exposed to the stars..."

   "How about being exposed...outside...what...?" Ophelia asked.

   "The world... returns to silence..."

   Ophelia didn't like the deep sea **** imitating her frustration, but it did give the words a sense of heaviness.

  Lu Li thought of what he had seen in Ellen's King City: the awakened ancient **** roared out into the sky, the vast sea of ​​stars condensed into his eyes, cast his gaze, and the ancient **** turned to ashes.

   "Are the clouds easy to disperse?"

   "It's the rule, by... I can't remember." The power of the eyeball is limited.

  The cloud layer, which is called the rule by the **** of the deep sea, is at the top. At least the black ring that hangs the void in the farmland garden is not as high as it, and the sky and the sky of falsehood torn by the light stealer are not as high as him.

  Lu Li brought the question back to his eyes: "Can you tell the difference between seawater and freshwater?"

   "You are provoking the majesty of the gods." The **** of the deep sea whispered indifferently.

"Can?"

   "I...I can't do it. But maybe I can..."

   Before continuing the conversation, the Yingchuo people sent a message that the worms excavating around Shadow Town had found a burial ground underground.

  Leaving the God of the Deep Sea to continue draining, Lu Li and Ophelia went to Shadow Town.

   A few hundred meters away from the ruins, some hexapods and Yingchuo people gathered around. The swollen soft dirt proved that the worms had burrowed out of the ground, and that it had brought the rotting wooden coffin covered in dirt.

   It was not the body itself that found the problem, but the edge of the coffin where it was nailed. Due to severe decay, many iron nails are no longer useful, and the coffin lid can only be barely allowed to fall off in the bumps.

   "Open it."

   The six-legged monster crawled to the side of the coffin faster than the believers and lifted the rotten lid.

   Hard-to-assemble grey skeletons littered shabby aristocratic costumes, and a faded notebook tumbled in boots stuffed with leg bones.

   Ophelia took out her notes.

  The writer called himself Johnson, the first mayor of Shadow Town. He claimed to have been framed by a cult who took his place, knocked out, crucified, and buried in the ground.

  Scribbles and brief descriptions of the pain of Johnson, who calls himself mayor. Perhaps when he woke up, there was not much air left in the coffin, and he died in pain and suffocation.

   Ophelia put the note into the chest of the nobleman's clothes in the coffin, and the charred palms glowed with fiery heat, burning away the contamination.

   "Bury him in the Shadow Town Cemetery."

   Lu Li said, it is meaningless to go back a hundred years. The people of that time are no longer there, and the system is no longer there.

The six-legged monsters sent the closed coffin to the cemetery on the outskirts of the ruins, buried it next to the cemetery where the first mayor Johnson was written on the tombstone, pulled out the tombstone and stood back in front of the real Johnson's tomb, and then stood in front of the fake mayor's cemetery. Raise the tombstone of [Liar].

   "I asked the servants to do this..."

  The Swamp Mother appeared in the cemetery to answer the doubts of Purse and Ophelia.

   "Have you used the eyeballs left on the coast of Luokou Town?"

   Lu Li asked the businessman Anthony, and after getting a denial answer, Lu Li asked the believers to erect more than a dozen tombstones, with Pusius speaking the names, and engraving the names of the believers who died underground on the tombstones.

The believers behind    crawl and pray, and the act of "God erecting tombstones" turned them into mad believers. The strong belief that only the Swamp Mother could see haunted Lu Li, but was excluded.

   "They believe in Anna, and they believe in you?" asked the Swamp Mother.

   "To them, I am the consort of the gods."

  Although Anna is not a god.

   "Why does your banyan tree grow?" Lu Li suddenly asked him.

   "Faith brings strength... I am strong because of them, and they are strong because of me."

  The belief of believers enables the gods to gain strength, and the power of the gods to feed back allows believers to grow.

   This is the only way to keep a jungle that has lost its wreckage from dying due to lack of light.

   "Then do you mind the jungle being your devotee?"

  …

  Lu Li and the Swamp Mother went to the depths of the twisted jungle, and exchanged belief in the Swamp Mother for the hope of survival.

  Unexpectedly, the giant tree easily agreed to Lu Li's request, because it didn't think his friends would hurt it.

  The Mother of the Swamps is not stingy with the human side either: Forgive the twisted jungle that has provoked twenty years of war, and does not make the jungle her servants.

  Shadowswamp will no longer be divided into north and south.

  Yingchuoren, Hexagonal Monsters and newly born Firefly Grass are running wild in their new home. The giant tree quickly accepted the new family, or was accepted by the new family, and happily felt the jungle of birth and vitality.

   Of all the good, there is only one being that is dissatisfied with it.

   "Why not let it...believe in me."

   Feeling the increasing power of the Swamp Mother, the God of the Deep Sea expressed his dissatisfaction, but after thinking for a moment, he rejected himself again: "No... It doesn't believe that I am correct."

   In the long time when the **** of the deep sea fell, his powerful servants established themselves as new gods, and the believers were also corrupted. If the jungles believe in him, new believers will be usurped by them, and they will know the resurrection of the deep sea god--

   Young heirs can only be left in the hands of their greedy relatives until they have no power to protect their wealth.

   In five days, the seawater in the swamp was completely drained, revealing the bare silt that has not dried up and the breakwaters nearly half a meter high, built day and night. The eastern ground is also reclaimed by worms, and the rubble can expand.

   And the jungle also solved the existential crisis because of faith.

  …

   Everyone gathered in front of the giant tree.

   "Will I be the same as before, knowing nothing?"

   A trembling voice echoed.

   "You are my believer and will no longer be affected by the mutilated body." The Swamp Mother said softly.

  The **** of the deep sea ascended the crown of the tree and touched the remains of the phalanx——

  The indescribable aura spread, the sound of the waves was close at hand, the illusion faded in a short trance, the **** of the deep sea fell back to the ground, leaving only the scars left by the surrounding water flow.

   "I... stronger again." The deep sea **** whispered.

   This change has the outline of Him now: the black robe is deeper and vaguely outlines unrecognizable outlines.

   Now, resolve the dispute in the Shadow Swamp and retrieve the remnant of the Deep Sea God, it is time for them to say goodbye.

  On the eve of parting, Lu Li returned with the gift of the giant tree: he gave it many fairy tales, geography and biology books.

  The Swamp Mother lowered her eyes and looked at Lu Li.

   "Where's my gift?"
