Episode 18 – The Elder Gods Chapter 17 – The Underworld Fruit
Linley and Bebe couldn’t help but be shocked in their hearts.
“I’m afraid I’d be dead if I really flew in like that just now!” Linley was in a fit of fear. He hadn’t even been dragonized just now, and had originally prepared to dragonize when he entered the Underworld Mountainlands, who would have thought. Who would have thought that this seemingly safe ‘gap’ would be so dangerous. Without dragonization, one could never resist, but ……
Bebe was flying in front. Bebe approached. Once it would cause the lightning chains to change, he himself would react in advance.
Linley turned his head to look at this green-robed youth. Still grateful, he said, “Thank you so much, by the way, let me ask, how did you end up around the Underworld Mountain?”
No wonder Linley was puzzled. It was because this green-robed youth was only a Median God.
The level of danger in this Underworld wasn’t lower than Hell, and a Mediate God wandering around outside was simply a death sentence.
“I live right next to it.” The green-robed youth smiled and pointed not far away.
Linley looked in the direction this youth was pointing. Only to see that in the distance, roughly thousands of meters away, there was a systematic compound. In front of these courtyards. It was a three-story building, and there were also four large words written on this three-story building – the Underworld Hotel!
“A hotel here?” Linley was somewhat surprised.
“Underworld Hotel?” Bebe asked suspiciously, “Who opened this hotel of yours? To open a hotel in this wilderness. It’s impressive enough.” This kind of desolate and shocking place. Opening a hotel is a gift to robbers. Unless there was a super power, only then would they dare to open a hotel in the wild and scary place outside the city.
The green-robed youth proudly said, “Our hotel belongs to Green Leaf Castle. Who dares to make trouble?”
“What is Greenleaf Castle?” Bebe then asked, and Linley looked at the green-robed youth with the same confusion.
The green-robed youth choked. He looked at Linley and Bebe with the gaze of a monster, “Could it be that you haven’t even heard of Greenleaf Castle? You’re all Elder Gods, so many years in the Underworld, haven’t you had any contact with the outside world?” The green-robed youth couldn’t believe it. The other party didn’t know about Greenleaf Castle.
“We came from hell.” Linley said.
“Oh. So that’s how it is, I didn’t expect the two of you to come from hell.” The green-robed youth drifted off.
“Tell you what!” The green-robed youth laughed. “This hotel of ours. It’s opened by Greenleaf Castle. And Greenleaf Castle is in our Underworld. It’s a famous one! Our Greenleaf Castle has a total of three Castle Masters. And these three burgomasters …… are all great Lord God Messengers!”
Linley and Bebe couldn’t help but be shocked at hearing this.
Three fortress lords, all of them Lord God emissaries? It was no wonder this Greenleaf Castle was so strong.
“Where is your Greenleaf Castle?” Linley asked, having read the book that described the approximate geography of the Underworld. Some of the famous places in the Underworld would still be introduced, and if Greenleaf Castle was really so famous, there was no reason why it wouldn’t be in that book. If Greenleaf Castle was really so famous, there was no reason not to tell about it in that book.
“I don’t know.”
The green-robed youth shook his head and said, “Where exactly is Green Leaf Castle. It’s a secret in the Underworld.”
Linley smiled. No longer talking about this. Instead, he went straight to the point: “Excuse me, do you know …… how to enter this Underworld Mountain?”
“Into the Underworld Mountain, oh …… at the foot of the north side of the Underworld Mountain, from here. There is roughly more than a thousand miles away, there is a mountain gate there, and anyone who wants to enter the Underworld Mountain enters through that mountain gate.” The green-robed youth said with a smile. He was the one who lived here, so he naturally knew it all.
“Oh. Thanks then.” Linley smiled, then prepared to fly over with Bebe.
“Hey, wait a minute.” The green-robed youth saw that Linley and the two of them were about to leave. It even shouted.
“En?” Linley and the two of them both turned their heads to look at him.
The green-robed youth even said, “You guys are just too eager. By the looks of it. What you guys know about this Underworld Mountain. It’s not generally scarce! This Underworld Mountain is extremely dangerous ……”
“We know about the danger.” Bebe said playfully. “Danger is nothing to be afraid of.”
The green-robed youth helplessly said, “I know that the two adults are strong, but …… the surface of this Underworld Mountain is covered with ground clouds. It is also very weird, but …… whenever the moon is full, the clouds of this Underworld Mountain will become thin. That power will also be greatly reduced, generally those who enter the Underworld Mountain, all go in at that time!”
“The night of the full moon?” Linley projected. “There are still five days left!”
“If the two adults really want to go in, I think it’s better to wait five days, and the level of danger will have diminished by then as well. It’s not too late to go in again.” The green-robed youth said.
Linley and Bebe looked at each other. A decision was then made.
“Alright then, let’s wait five days. Then we’ll stay at your Underworld Hotel first.” Linley said with a smile.
“Good. I’ll bring the two adults over.” This green-robed youth even laughed, in fact, when he had just seen Linley and Bebe flying towards the Underworld Mountain, he had immediately rushed over to …… this matter of greeting guests, he had done it many times before.
The Underworld Hotel, right next to Underworld Mountain.
In front of the front door of the hotel was a large grassy area. In the center of the grass was a bend in the lake, and when Linley and Bei Bei came here under the leadership of the green-robed youth, the first thing that attracted Lin Lei was the lake. The first thing that attracted Linley. The first thing that attracted Linley was the red-haired pretty girl sitting at the edge of the lake fishing for fish, and that pretty girl glanced at Linley, Beibei and the two of them. Then, she continued fishing without a care in the world.
“Interesting.” Linley smiled.
“Hey. That female. Who is it?” Bebe inquired to the green-robed youth.
The green-robed youth even laughed and said, “You two should be more careful, that woman. That woman is the owner of our hotel. Is from the green leaf castle out of the ground, I do not know much about her …… can hear. The boss she. And our green leaf castle one of the three fortress owner. Have a relatively close relationship it. And boss her strength is also very strong ah.”
“Ke Wen. Shut up!” A cold and stern voice of reprimand rang out.
“Ah, boss, I was wrong.” This green-robed youth even bowed. He then smiled at Linley and Bebe. “Our boss is indifferent to outsiders. But he’s still very good to us.”
Saying this, the green-robed youth led Linley and the two of them into the hotel’s front door.
The hall of this hotel was very large and was divided into two parts. One part was for welcoming foreign guests, while the other part was the restaurant, and that restaurant area had dozens of tables set up, and at the moment there were surprisingly a dozen or so people sitting there in this restaurant. Drinking and chatting at the same time.
“Two people. How long are staying?” On the mainland of the counter was a green-robed woman.
“Stay for five days.” Bebe spoke.
“Ten thousand plutonite a day! Fifty thousand plutonite for five days.” The green-robed woman said.
Hearing these words. Linley couldn’t help but turn his head to look over as well, ten thousand plutonic stones a day? The plutonite in the underworld was the same value as the ‘inkstone’ in hell, in hell. It is to live in a hotel in the city, only a few hundred inkstones a year, but this Underworld Hotel, the price is tens of thousands of times ah!
“You’re robbing money.” Bebe couldn’t help but say angrily.
The green-robed woman smiled indifferently, “This is the price of our hotel. Stay at our Underworld Hotel. We will be able to guarantee your safety in the interior of the hotel. This is a lot of strong people every year. Live in …… general hotel, can not dare to entertain these strong people.”
“Strong people?” Linley’s eyebrows lifted. He also noticed. The people drinking and chatting in the restaurant. All of them were Upper Gods. As for what strength they were. It was impossible to tell without doing anything for a while. But listening to the words of this green-robed woman. These people should all be very strong.
“We only have inkstones.” Linley opened his mouth, immediately drawing many of the people drinking in the restaurant to look over. People who only possessed inkstones were generally those who had come from hell. Coming from hell to the Underworld …… was enough to make those people take notice.
“We, the Underworld Hotel, entertain guests from all realms.” That green-haired woman was however not the least bit surprised. “The same 10,000 ink stones a day …… a total of 50,000 ink stones. By the way, if you want to drink and eat, the price is extra.”
Linley smiled and flipped his hand. Paying the money.
“You guys. Why are there so many guests?” Bebe inquired suspiciously to the woman. “This Underworld Mountain is surrounded by so much barren fright, this group of people came over. Do they all want to enter the Underworld Mountain to die?” These words. It drew quite a few people from the restaurant to look towards Bebe. Many of them had unfavorable gazes.
“Hmph. Sent to death? You two, aren’t you also here to die?” A cold voice came from the other side of the restaurant.
Linley glanced bashfully over there.
“Bebe, don’t cause trouble.” Linley said with a faint smile.
Although he wasn’t afraid, Linley didn’t want to cause trouble.
“All of you remember. Don’t make a move within our Underworld Hotel.” The green-robed woman spoke.
“Don’t worry.” Linley said with a faint smile.
With that, Linley led Bebe and found a seat in the corner of the restaurant, where he sat down, and a waiter immediately greeted him and handed him a menu. “These prices aren’t generally expensive.” Bebe muttered. However, Linley and Bebe had already been psychologically prepared. They casually ordered a few dishes and two bottles of fine wine. Then they spent nearly ten thousand inkstones.
“Boss, what do you think these people are doing here? Could it be that they are going to meet the Lord God just like us?” Bebe transmitted his voice. He didn’t understand strong people. What were they doing here.
“Main God? There aren’t many people who know that there’s a Lord God land in the Underworld Mountain.” Linley transmitted his voice.
When he had come to the Underworld, he had met a total of three Prefectural Lords. One of them could be a House Lord who didn’t even know that there was a Lord God in the Underworld Mountain, and that Saints also said …… that he only knew about it after hearing the Lord God mention it. Obviously. The Underworld Mountain has the Lord God. Is a secret.
“Mind your own business.” Linley said with a faint smile.
Having come here, Linley was still in a good mood. With that, Linley and Bebe drank fine wine and ate dishes. Casually chatting away.
“Shit. Even hell has people coming over to rob the Underworld Fruit!” An indignant voice came from another part of the restaurant, a phrase that couldn’t help but catch the attention of Linley and Bebe.
“Underworld Fruit?” Bebe couldn’t help but look towards Linley and say. “Boss. Do you know what that Underworld Fruit is?”
“I don’t know, never heard of it at all.” Linley shook his head his heart filled with doubt.
Because there was no need for secrecy in talking about this matter, Linley’s duo also talked directly about it.
“Two friends from hell, coming here for the Underworld Fruit. Still not admitting it? It’s a bit ridiculous, you guys have worked hard all the way from hell to our Underworld. Coming to this Underworld Mountain, not for the Underworld Fruit. What is it for?” A faint voice came from the side.
Linley turned his head to look. The person speaking was a young man with long, shoulder-length silver hair who appeared to be feminine.
“Hey. What’s so great about the Underworld Fruit, tell me about it.” Bebe said with a raised eyebrow.
Many of the other guests in the restaurant. They couldn’t help but give Bebe an unfavorable look without saying much.
“The Underworld Fruit, a legendary treasure.” A cold and stern voice rang out, only to see the pretty red-haired young girl who had been fishing just a moment ago walk in carrying a fishing rod and a small bucket in her other hand. “That is a priceless treasure. Only the Underworld Mountain will have it, and anyone who gets the Underworld Fruit. And whoever eats it down will become a superpower in the Underworld, and at the same time …… will be received by the Lord God and become a Lord God’s Messenger!”
Linley couldn’t help but stare in disbelief as he listened.
To be able to obtain the Underworld Fruit and eat it. One could become a Lord God’s emissary?
“Really?” Bebe couldn’t believe it either.
“Of course it’s real.”
This red-haired, pretty young girl glanced indifferently at Linley and the two of them, “For countless years. This Underworld Mountain has already appeared three Underworld Fruits, if it’s fake …… how could it be, there’s often a group of people who come over to try their luck!” Saying this, he glanced at the rest of the restaurant, and then this red-haired, pretty young girl ‘stepped’ up the stairs.
Linley and Bebe glanced at each other. Still in disbelief.
“Two friends from hell, don’t you guys know that the three burgomasters of that Greenleaf Castle land are the three who were lucky enough to receive the Underworld. They are the three people who were lucky enough to obtain the Underworld Fruit! If you get the Fruit of the Underworld, you will be able to skyrocket in strength and become a superpower comparable to the Lord of the House. Moreover, they can be given a Master God Artifact by the Master God and become a Master God’s Messenger!” The feminine man glanced at the duo with a cold smile. “You don’t need to pretend you don’t know if you want to come and find the Underworld Fruit.”
Bebe couldn’t help it. Irritated.
“Bebe. Drink.” Linley laughed faintly while transmitting his voice to Bebe, “Bebe, there’s no need to waste time with those people.”
The Underworld Fruit, it was true that Linley and the others had never heard of it. However, Linley, Bebe. Didn’t have much interest in that Underworld Fruit either. Only three Underworld Fruits had appeared in countless years …… it was too rare. Of course, the strength has skyrocketed. Becoming a Lord God’s Messenger, the charm of this Underworld Fruit was indeed great.
Suddenly–
Footsteps sounded as a person walked in from outside the door.
Linley turned his head to look, “It’s him?”
This visitor was dressed in black robes and had long purple hair. It was none other than the person who dominated amongst those two super experts that Linley and Bebe had once seen dueling high up in the sky on their way to the Underworld Mountain.
