After returning to the castle, Fangzheng told everyone about Amelia and Ferut's participation in the King's Selection. As expected, everyone was shocked. But as friends, they naturally supported the two, but …
"In that case, Ferut won't be able to go on an adventure with us, right?"
The priestess was somewhat disappointed, but Fangzheng waved his hand.
"No, the plan remains the same. Ferut will go with you. Not only will Ferut go, but Amelia will also join."
"Huh?"
Hearing this, both sides were taken aback.
"Why?"
"Because adventurers can better come into contact with all levels of society, and as adventurers, you will also have a better understanding of the country's situation."
At this point, Fangzheng looked at Ferut.
"The life of an adventurer is different from when you were in the slums. You have to remember this. Also, I want you to start your activities with the Kingdom of Luganica as the center. "
"Are we … going to do that?"
"That's right."
Fangzheng nodded.
"Ferut and Amelia are currently candidates for the King's Selection. Although this kind of thing can't be spread around, acting as adventurers and helping to solve difficulties can also increase their reputation, especially Amelia. Especially Amelia. If your goal is to become king, you must accept and adapt to this situation. "
"Okay, I understand."
Hearing Fangzheng's request, Amelia was still a little nervous and uneasy, but she still nodded.
At this moment, Hui Hui suddenly thought of something.
"Wait, don't tell me that in order to celebrate the new recruits, we're going to …"
"That's right."
Fangzheng snapped his fingers.
"Let's go fight goblins. Just treat it as a welcome party. This can also become a traditional activity of your party in the future, right?"
"I don't want this kind of traditional activity!"
Hui Hui immediately put on a long face, while the priestess and Aise didn't respond at all. Only Amelia and Firut looked at this scene in astonishment. Looking at Emily, the corners of Fangzheng's mouth curled up slightly. The reason why he did this was to target Emily. From Fangzheng's point of view, Emily was still too much of a "Virgin Mary" and lacked the vicious beatings of society. A crusade against the Goblins as they pleased would be able to stimulate Amelia.
As for whether Amelia and Ferut would be in danger, Fangzheng wasn't worried. After all, Amelia still had Parker, the great elf, by her side. A goblin that could defeat a great elf ….. Hahaha, that wouldn't be a goblin.
At the same time, a group of uninvited guests arrived at the Adventurer's Guild in a small town not far away.
"Are you looking for the Goblin Assassin?"
Looking at the three people in front of her, the receptionist smiled.
"I'm really sorry. He accepted the Goblin extermination mission yesterday and hasn't returned yet."
"How long will it take?"
The one who asked was a young girl standing in front of the receptionist. She carried a longbow on her back, had a slender figure and long emerald green hair. Her pointy ears revealed her true identity — — an elf.
"The destination this time is a little far, it might take a week ….."
"Too slow!"
"Little girl, as an elf, shouldn't you be more patient?"
The dwarf standing next to the elven girl stroked his beard and laughed.
"That's why you can't grow up."
"What did you say? It's not even up to my waist … …! "
Looking at this strange party of high elves, dwarves, and lizardmen, the receptionist couldn't help but feel puzzled. Not only that, they were all Silver rank adventurers, which was a little surprising.
Generally speaking, Silver rank adventurers wouldn't be interested in goblins.
Unfortunately, the most suitable Silver rank adventurer to accept the mission hadn't returned yet.
But … …
"That ….."
Thinking of this, the receptionist raised her hand, interrupting their quarrel.
"If the three of you want to solve problems related to goblins, then I can recommend another adventurer team. Although they are only Obsidian rank adventurers, they are very good at dealing with goblins. They should be able to help you."
"Really?"
Hearing the receptionist's words, the three hurriedly turned their heads.
"But Obsidian rank … … isn't it too low?"
"But it's still dealing with goblins … … Don't you think so too?"
"That's right … …"
The three discussed in a low voice, then the elven archer looked at the receptionist again.
"Then, may I ask where that team is?"
"They're not here, but in a castle not far away. You can follow the road outside the town, and it will take you about 20 minutes to reach there. As for the commission, our Adventurer's Guild will handle it … … "
However, before the receptionist finished speaking, the guild door suddenly opened, followed by a lively voice.
"Hahaha, I can feel it, this is the guidance of fate … …"
"Ah, Miss Huihui, you've come at the right time."
Seeing the priestess and her entourage walk in from the guild door, the receptionist smiled.
"We're here to accept a commission. Is there a commission related to goblins?"
"Of course, they're actually looking for someone to accept a commission related to goblins."
"Ah, that's great, Sir Knight wants us to accept another goblin mission … …"
"What's the reason this time?"
"Umm … … Welcome newcomers?"
"Eh?"
Hearing this, the receptionist was stunned for a moment, then she saw Firut and Amelia walking out from behind the priestess.
"These two intend to apply to become adventurers and join our team."
"Of course, that's not a problem, but they're newcomers … … Can they really do it?"
"Don't worry, big sister."
Facing the counter lady's question, Firut answered in a carefree manner.
"Both Amelia and I are very powerful! Besides, it's just goblins, it's not a problem! "
"Ah, hmm … …"
Upon hearing Firut's answer, the front desk lady replied with some difficulty. Then, she turned to the priestess who revealed a helpless smile and nodded.
The receptionist immediately understood what she meant.
"Alright, I'll handle the procedures for you two now … …"
At the same time, in the castle, Fangzheng was looking out the window at the town in the distance. Beatrice was beside him, enjoying the breeze.
"I didn't expect you to let that little girl become an adventurer. In my opinion, that little girl isn't cut out to be a king."
"In my opinion, she's not cut out to be a king either."
Fangzheng nodded in response to Beatrice's words. After interacting with Amelia, Fangzheng discovered that Amelia's biggest problem was that she was too much of a saint.
She wasn't the kind of person who was ridiculed on the internet, but a true saint … … That was the only thing that gave him a headache.
Kindness was a good quality, but it also depended on the situation and identity. If Amelia continued to live her life in the Frozen Forest, being too kind would only be a small flaw for her, but if Amelia wanted to become a king, this level of kindness would be fatal to her.
Kindness itself was not a problem, nor was it a problem to think of others, but kindness without a bottom line was courting death.
In Fangzheng's opinion, Goblins would give Amelia a very good ideological education.
But what kind of score Amelia would get in this exam, that was unknown.
Amelia's intention to challenge racial discrimination was naturally good, but now it was unknown whether she would become Martin Luther King, Gandhi, or Mandela.
Although none of them had a good ending.
But then again … …
"Don't you feel bored staying in the library all day? Go out for a walk. "
"No way."
Beatrice snorted when she heard Fangzheng's words.
"Betty has a mission in the stacks."
"Mission? What mission? "
"… … …"
Betty was silent for a moment in response to Fangzheng's question. Then, she waved her hand, and a book appeared in Fangzheng's hand.
"This is Betty's mission."
"Uh … … I don't quite understand. Can you explain?"
"Betty isn't a natural spirit, but an artificial spirit that was created. The one who created Betty is the Demoness of Lust, Aijdona. In fact, this vault is also Mother's. Betty only signed a contract to guard it. This' Book of Wisdom 'can know everything about the world's past and future. Betty and Rozval each have one. "
"Oh … …"
That means that the book is about the same length as the book?
"So?"
"In the contract signed by Betty and Mother, it was agreed that Betty would replace Mother to guard the library until a certain person came and pass on the knowledge in the library to him. When that person comes, Betty's book of prophecy will react."
"So you're telling me this means that no one will react now?"
"That's right."
Beatrice nodded her head slightly.
"It's been four hundred years. Betty has been waiting in the library for four hundred years. Frankly speaking, it's long enough for Betty. But until now, Betty hasn't seen the person Mother mentioned …. "
"What about Mei Yin and Mai Lu? Even they can't do it? "
Fangzheng could not help but ask out of curiosity. One had to know that Mei Yin loved books the most, and she was also the most obsessed with the library. Mai Lu also had half of the average ability of the Ancient Dragons in this world. More importantly, both of them were transmigrators, so in Fangzheng's opinion, they both had the protagonist's aura ….
"No."
Beatrice shook her head again.
"To be honest, the reason why Betty agreed to help you was because she hoped to find a glimmer of hope …. Betty knows that you have a way to easily find the whereabouts of Betty's brother, so Betty hopes that you can help Betty find that person."
"Hmm … …"
After listening to Beatrice's request, Fangzheng frowned and thought.
"I have a question."
"What question?"
"You and your mother – the Lustful Witch – agreed to wait here, right? There's no time limit?"
"Yes."
"But there's a problem. This place has always been lived in by the Rozval family, and not everyone can open that door. So you waited like this for four hundred years …. There's no special feature, and you asked me to find someone …. At least your brother can give me a name."
"Is that so … …"
Hearing Fangzheng's answer, Beatrice lowered her head with a depressed expression. Her face, which was usually extremely cold, now revealed a hint of sadness. Seeing Beatrice like this, Fangzheng's heart skipped a beat.
"But then again … maybe I'm the person you're waiting for, hahaha."
"Huh? How's that possible? "
Beatrice rolled her eyes when she heard Fangzheng's words.
"Mother once told me that when that person comes, Betty's Gospel will react."
"But isn't no reaction a kind of reaction? And if it's me, it's normal that your Gospel won't react, because you can't investigate anything about me at all. "
Fangzheng was very calm. After all, he had the Black Book, and Fangzheng was also a Time Dragon and a Prophet mage. A Prophet mage could not predict other Prophets, and the Time Dragon was outside the timeline. It could be said that Fangzheng was here, but he was not. He could see her, but he could not see her. Although he did not know what the hell the Gospel in Beatrice's hands was, Fangzheng did not believe it could be stronger than the Black Book.
"What a load of nonsense …"
Beatrice snorted and flipped open the Gospel. After a while, her eyes widened in surprise.
"How is this possible? There's really nothing …. "
Beatrice was stunned as she looked at the smooth pages in front of her. The Gospel was a replica given to her by Aigdona. It could show the holder's future. Of course, it was a bit similar to seeing the diary written by her future self in advance. But to Beatrice's surprise, when she wanted to flip through the pages to find anything related to Fangzheng, she could not see anything!
It was as if he did not exist at all!
"Well, that's also a possibility. Take your time to think about it."
Fangzheng stretched out his hand and patted Beatrice's head, then stroked the little kitten while humming a song. Only Beatrice remained in the library, looking at the Gospel in front of her in bewilderment.
Could it be … it really was him?
