Haiji Island, Coral Palace.

When he actually came to this isolated place and saw the shrine in the middle, Ningzhe only felt a sense of surprise that came from within.

Floating as if left alone in the world, transformed into immortality.

If there is really a beautiful and quiet place in this world as beautiful as fairyland, then it must be Haiji Island... and the Coral Palace in it.

Ningzhe and Xinhai did not reveal their whereabouts after returning to Haiji Island. Except for a few witches who really couldn't get around, few people on Haiji Island knew that their leader, Coral Palace Xinhai, was back.

After entering the Coral Palace of the shrine, the two of them had time to say a few words.

After arriving at the shrine, both of them had something to say, especially Ningzhe, who was very surprised by what he saw along the way.

"Miss Coral Palace, I have to say that you have done a very good job in maintaining security and defense on Kaiji Island. Judging from the situation along the way, the level of security is no less than that of Inazuma Castle."

Thinking of all the "dangerous" situations he encountered when he sneaked over just now, Ningzhe spoke with some emotion.

A few days ago, he sneaked through Inazuma Castle Tower with Albedo and Kanoin Heizou. There was almost no danger of being discovered that time, and the whole journey went very smoothly.

But this time, the guards stationed on the small Haiji Island almost discovered him.

"I issued an order to strengthen vigilance before leaving. After all, Goro and I have left, and Haiji Island is also empty inside... If someone takes advantage of it at this time, it will lead to things that none of us can imagine. s consequence."

Facing Ningzhe's emotion, Xinhai shook his head slightly, explained, and then took something similar to a cane and handed it to him.

"This is?"

Ningzhe didn't doubt that he was there, so he directly took the cane and weighed it.

Its body is about three feet long, with patterns all around it, and the whole body is sky blue...

Overall, the appearance was very good, but Ningzhe didn't find anything important inside.

etc...

Suddenly, Ningzhe felt a familiar breath coming from the cane. The moment he felt the power, he frowned.

"This is a token passed down from generation to generation on Kaiji Island. It contains the power left by the demon god [Aurobus] who protects us."

"But it's a pity that Coral Palace couldn't use this power a long time ago... It's here. If you can use it, take it."

Xinhai didn't notice Ningzhe's abnormal behavior. She was explaining the origin of the cane very seriously.

"..."

Hearing this, Ningzhe swallowed, but he didn't hesitate and handed the cane back directly.

"Let's talk about this later. We haven't seen that thing up close yet."

When Ningzhe handed over the cane, his face was calm, as if he didn't take it to heart at all.

But actually...

What is hidden inside this thing is the real power of the devil!

If nothing else, at least you can wake up the old man!

But... even though he didn't know much about the history of Kaiji Island, he also understood the weight of the name [Aurobas] to them.

Let’s talk about it after solving the black mist incident.

Judging from the "scenery" seen on the boat, the beaches outside Haiji Island have almost been occupied by black fog. According to the "trouble" Xinhai mentioned before, this matter must be solved immediately.

And this is without disturbing the original soldiers of Kaiji Island...

...

The soldiers on Kaiji Island are mostly divided into "Squads", among which the more well-known are "Swordfish", "Grawn Tiger" and other squads. The soldiers move in small teams to ensure their mobility to the greatest extent.

Since the fighting on the front line has been suspended, some of the guerrilla teams on Haji Island have returned to Kaiji Island, including members of the [Grawn Tiger] Squadron.

However, this team did not take any time off after returning to Haiji Island. They began to actively clean up the wandering wanderers around them, and after the black mist appeared, they also observed their movements every day.

The one in the team who is most sensitive to black mist is a soldier named Zheping. His strength is not as strong as his colleagues, but he has an unexpected sense for things like black mist.

He was originally a logistics personnel, and he happened to be transferred to the front line a while ago, but before he participated in the battle, he encountered the armistice... After that, he wandered around with other members of the [Grawn and Tiger] team, and finally Returned to Haiji Island.

Today, as usual, he came to the south of Haiji Island to observe the black mist group gathered here.

"Well...the black fog seems to be a bit calm today, and the speed of spreading to the surrounding areas has slowed down significantly compared to the past few days..."

"It is still impossible to speculate on what their specific goals are. We only know that they are constantly devouring surrounding vegetation and animals..."

"The speed of devouring does not seem to be related to the overall scale of the black mist..."

After observing for a while, the immature-looking young man lowered his head with a helpless tone.

He has been observing the black mist here for several days, but their daily movements seem to be irregular. No matter how he analyzes them, he can't find anything useful.

The other members of the [Grawn Tiger] squad also followed him to observe at first, but after a few days without a breakthrough, they all left. For them, killing a few rebellious wanderers was better than staying here to watch the black mist. It really comes true.

So, he was the only one left here.

"No, if we continue like this, I'm afraid we won't have a chance..."

Thoughts flashed through his mind, Zheping suddenly gritted his teeth, took out the rope, and started walking down.

Since he couldn't see anything from a distance, he walked closer...

Although this kind of black mist can swallow the surrounding vegetation and animals, as long as you stay far away, there should be no problem...

With this thought in mind, Zheping moved closer and closer to the black mist.

The closer Zheping gets, the more he can see the structure and color of the black mist...

Black, but not pure black, but a black as thick as ink.

And for some reason, this black mist seemed to have a magical power, attracting Zheping closer and closer... Subconsciously, Zheping seemed to have lost control of his feet, and walked towards the black mist step by step...

"So beautiful...mysterious and noble..."

boom--

However, the moment he was about to touch the black mist, a golden spear suddenly appeared in front of him and directly dispersed the black mist.

At the same time, Zheping's eyes also regained their clarity.

"Ah...just now..."

Zheping came back to his senses and looked at the surrounding environment. He was still a little confused for a moment, but soon the golden spear turned into golden light again and directly dragged Zheping back.

"Well... I didn't expect that someone would actually be willing to take the risk."

Behind Zheping, Ningzhe raised his left hand, golden light melted into his hand, and at the same time he spoke in a rather helpless tone.

"Ah! Who are you...and Mr. Coral Palace?!"

Zheping glanced back subconsciously. First he saw an unknown Bai Mao, but then he saw Coral Palace Xinhai next to Bai Mao.

Didn't Mr. Coral Palace go to Inazuma City to attend the [Cultural Exchange Meeting]? When did she come back, and why didn't he receive any notification...

"Zheping, don't panic...I secretly returned to Haiji Island this time to solve this problem."

Xinhai comforted Zheping, and then pointed to the black mist that was still spreading not far away.

"Can we solve the black fog..."

Zheping saw Xinhai's face and her gentle tone, and his expression gradually calmed down.

It seems that his conclusion is correct. This black mist is really a big trouble. Even the Coral Palace Lord rushed back...

And he also brought back a young man with white hair...
