After walking out of the shopping street, Plisson saw a stall selling snacks. He happened to be a little hungry at night, so he asked Nuo Ling if he wanted to eat something.
"I can maintain the normal functioning of my body even if I don't eat. If you want to eat, it's okay if I eat some with you." Nuo Ling replied.
"Okay, then you sit on the seat over there while I go buy something."
"Yes." Plisson went to the stall to take a look and found that the stall sold grilled fish. Various condiments unique to Ghost City were sprinkled on the fish, and a scent spread.
After Pleasant was promoted to Legend, his appetite also changed. He could go without eating for long periods of time without being hungry, and he could also eat several times the amount of food as a normal person in one meal.
With this in mind, Pleasant bought all the remaining grilled fish on the shelf in one go. After tossing a shining gold coin, plates of grilled fish were quickly brought to Pleasant and Nuo Ling.
"Is this edible?" Nuo Ling looked at the grilled fish covered with various condiments in front of her. She always felt that it didn't look like serious food.
"It can definitely be eaten. By the way, what did you old gods eat before? It must have been roasted elves." Plisson said while biting the fish.
"It's not as scary as you think. Not all the old gods eat the holy tree elves. Things like astral spring water, spiritual soil, holy tree buds, and spiritual nectar are all very good food choices."
"That sounds quite high-class. No wonder you look down on grilled fish."
"It's not that I'm looking down on you, I'm just not used to it, so I'll just try a few bites." Nuo Ling carefully tore off a piece of fish meat and put it in his mouth. Nuo Ling's expression was unexpectedly startled, and then his eyes suddenly filled with emotion. burst into tears.
"No, is it so unpalatable?" Plissen was a little surprised when he saw the tears in Nuo Ling's eyes. He actually thought the grilled fish was quite delicious.
"This...this...why is this food so delicious? I...I...I have never eaten this kind of thing." Nuo Ling shed tears while tearing it apart Biting the fish in front of him.
"Compared to this, what did I eat before?" Nuo Ling chewed the fish and cried even harder for a while.
"...Boss, please add some more grilled fish." Seeing Nuo Ling's look, Plissen recalled the food of the old gods he had mentioned before, and for a moment he felt a little sympathy for Nuo Ling. and understanding.
The soil of the Origin Spirit, the buds of sacred branches, etc., aren't they the soil and branches of the Kingdom of God? People who used to eat soil, branches, and flower petals every day suddenly eat grilled fish one day, and no one will cry.
Nuo Ling was crying as she finished the five portions of grilled fish served by the boss. If Plissen hadn't stopped her, she would have eaten all the fish heads and bones.
"You've finished eating, why are your eyes still full of tears?" Plisson said to the tearful Nuo Ling.
"Wu... Wu... Wu... too little, not full." Nuo Ling choked.
"You used to eat soil, uh, I mean the soil of the Origin Spirit. How much did you usually eat in one meal?"
"I can't remember exactly, there are about this many." Nuo Ling opened his hand and gestured casually with Pleasant. This simple gesture allowed Pleasant to understand the physiques of the old gods and humans. The same cannot be said.
"Boss, 20 more grilled fish."
"Brother, you two have finished eating the grilled fish in our store. If you still want to eat, you may have to wait until tomorrow night." The boss smiled bitterly.
After hearing the boss's words, tears fell from Nuo Ling's eyes again.
"Don't worry, there is more than just this store on the street, there are many other things to eat." Plisson said quickly.
"....Really?"
"Can I lie to you? Let's go, I'll take you to eat something better." In this way, Plissen spent a night taking Nuo Ling through all the food stalls that were still open in the ghost city, including barbecue. , desserts, snacks, basically all types have been tried with Nuo Ling.
Finally, Nuo Ling was full and Plisson was exhausted.
"Uuuuuuuu, Moriko, you are so good to me. I have never been so happy as I am today."
"...It should be." Plissen said weakly, looking at the fish-belly-white sky.
"After staying for so long, I can already sense the coordinates of the core space again. It's time for me to go back. You also said that you have something to do during the day, so I won't trouble you."
"Yes, yes, I have something to do today." Plisson nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, I'm leaving. If anything happens to you, you can contact me through the contract lines. With my increased authority, I can sense the information in all contract lines. If there is a crisis, I promise to be there to help as soon as possible." Nuo Zero patted his belly, and then his slim figure began to gradually fade away.
"Understood, you are now considered a divine saint-level warrior. If anything happens, I will definitely call you." Plissen said slowly.
"Well, goodbye then." Nuo Ling waved his hand, and then his body completely atomized, disappearing in front of Plissen like a wisp of white smoke.
After seeing Nuo Ling completely disappear, the exhausted Plissen let out a long sigh of relief, and then walked back to the city lord's mansion with heavy steps.
But when he just stepped into the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, he saw Della walking towards him.
"I didn't see you when I went to your room just now. I didn't expect you, City Lord, to wake up so early."
"...It's really early."
"The engraving of the spirit body you asked me to create has been completed and can be used at any time. As long as it is placed on a magic ship with a ship spirit, then the ship spirit can separate from the ship's hull and exist independently like Hecate. "Della took out something like a seal from her arms and handed it to Pleasant.
"Thank you." Plisson took the spirit engraving and put it away.
"By the way, City Lord, when do you plan to go to Shipwreck Bay?"
"Just today. This is my first time attending the Four Seas Council. Can you tell me what I need to pay attention to."
"There's nothing you need to pay attention to. Just take the Black Emperor with you. Shipwreck Bay is the base camp of the pirate guild. Pirates from all over the world are stationed here. We West Sea pirates also have people there. Someone will naturally guide you when you get there. "
"Are there people from Ghost City over there? But they are so far away. Do you know me, the new one?" Plisson asked again.
"Don't worry, City Lord. Although they don't know you, they do know Hecate and the Black Emperor. Whoever is the captain of this ship will be the new Pirate King of the West Sea. Everyone knows this ancient rule. ." Della smiled and signaled Plisson not to worry,
"If you still don't understand anything, just ask Hecate. She always attends the Four Seas Council every five years. Apart from the organizer, Mr. Qinglong, she can be said to know the most about this issue. ."
"By the way, I almost forgot about Hecate, the elder of the ghost city. If I go with her, I don't have to worry about anything."
"No, no, no, although it's okay to attend this routine, City Lord, you'd better be more careful." Della shook her head.
"What, is it dangerous if I go out for a meeting?"
"There is nothing wrong with the meeting itself, but you have to be more careful with the people who attend the meeting with you." Della said seriously.
"What, Mr. Qinglong wants to harm me?" Plissen looked stunned.
"That's not true. The person I'm referring to who needs to be careful is the current South Sea Pirate King Vivian Reed."
"Vivian Reed, this name sounds familiar." Plisson said, touching his chin.
"...Her brother's name is Joseph Reed."
"His brother's name sounds more familiar... Well, Joseph is his brother?" Plisson suddenly reacted.
"Well, and it is said that the relationship between them is quite good. Now you understand why I said you need to be more careful."
"Understood, I will pay more attention." Plisson nodded, his expression becoming more solemn. It seems that after arriving at Shipwreck Bay, Nuo Ling will have to be shaken out to protect himself.
