"That's quite the life."

Liu Zheng gave him a thumbs-up.

"Being a sucker while alive, then still being a sucker after dying—that's too damn unfair."

Black Skeleton said bitterly.

Clearly, he had some unbearable memories from before his death.

Liu Zheng wisely chose not to ask.

"I know you don't lack money, brother, and your Black Bro doesn't have any either. But..."

Black Skeleton looked around and took out his phone.

"Take a look at this."

Liu Zheng focused his gaze. On the phone screen was a shallow sea overgrown with algae.

The shapes of these golden algae varied greatly. At first glance, it would be easy to mistake them for different species, but one look at the round air bladders growing all over them made it clear that they were all the same thing.

These oxygen-filled bladders gave the algae buoyancy, allowing them to drift over the sea surface, swaying from side to side like fine horses idly flicking their tails.

Yet amid such a harmonious scene, there was one discordant presence.

Its shape looked much like the other algae, and its branches and leaves also had round air bladders.

However, it was pitch-black, with a huge maw at its center. Rows of blade-like teeth were hidden within the folds of that mouth.

Without a doubt, once prey fell into that enormous mouth, those teeth would immediately snap out and slice it to pieces.

"What is this?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"It's you."

Black Skeleton asked.

"Black Bro, are you saying this is a Black Goat Kid?"

He immediately caught on.

"That's right."

Black Skeleton nodded.

"But it doesn't look anything like a goat."

"Black Goat Kids weren't goats to begin with. Look at yourself—other than your hooves, what the hell do you have to do with goats?"
