When Fangzheng saw Fina again, it was in a church at the border of Twilight.
"Long time no see, Mr. Fangzheng."
"Well, it's been a while too."
Looking at the girl in front of him, Fangzheng raised his hand and greeted her. At the same time, he carefully looked at Fina. She was not much different from the one in Fangzheng's memory. Even her clothes were the priest's robes that Fangzheng had seen before. If there was anything different, it would be that she was wearing a plush cloak on the outside.
"I heard from the golden dragon that you've taken up the position of Pope again … But why doesn't it look like there's any change?"
Fangzheng carefully looked at Fina from head to toe. He originally thought that she would be dressed in some gorgeous clothes, or that she would look particularly glamorous ….
"After all, this is the border of Twilight. It's the most convenient place to move around."
Fina turned around with a smile, then looked at Fangzheng again.
"Thank you for coming in person. In fact, I should have invited Mr. Fangzheng to the Holy City of the Country of Saints for a banquet …"
"Forget it. I don't think I'm compatible with that place."
Before Fina could finish, Fangzheng hurriedly raised his hand to interrupt her. Ever since he was reincarnated into this world, every time the Country of Saints held a banquet for him, nothing good would come out of it. Although he did not know if it was a coincidence, Fangzheng did not want to try it again.
Therefore, when he heard from the golden dragon that Fina planned to invite him to the Holy City as a guest, he immediately came over.
"In that case, why don't we have a simple meal here? The potato stew here has been pretty good lately. "
"That's fine."
It should be fine as long as there was no banquet.
As the Pope, Fina naturally had special privileges. She and Fangzheng soon got a "private room" in the church. The attendants then brought over the food they ordered from the nearby tavern and a bottle of wine …
"Hmm, three dishes and one soup. You sure live a simple life."
“？”
"Nothing much."
Looking at Fina's confused expression, Fangzheng waved his hand. Then, he took a bite of the steak before him and looked at Fina.
"You know about Mephisto?"
"Of course. I've already received the report."
Fina nodded. At the same time, she glanced at the golden dragon girl who was sitting at another table not far away. Her head was almost buried in the basin.
"Mr. Fangzheng, what do you think?"
"If you ask me, this is a really good idea."
"… Is that so?"
"Of course."
Fangzheng swallowed the steak in his mouth and turned the fork in his hand.
"It's impossible for us to kill all the people from the Country of Fire, but leaving them alive is a disaster. Since that's the case, it's not a bad choice to exile those idiots to another planet. Besides, if Hell has a qualified experimental plot, won't we be safer here? "
"But …"
Hearing this, Fei Na frowned slightly.
"Doing this is equivalent to pushing all the people of the Country of Fire against us …"
"They've always been against us."
Fangzheng snorted coldly and interrupted Fina.
"From the moment they tried to drag us down, they were already our enemies. And now, they're like mangy dogs with their backs broken. It's meaningless to talk about peaceful coexistence with them. So, don't you think it's better to be straightforward and end it once and for all?"
"But I believe that the civilians are innocent."
Fina sighed softly. She put down the cutlery in her hand and looked at Fangzheng.
"Don't you think so? Mr. Fangzheng? "
"I don't think so."
Fangzheng answered without hesitation.
"They made a choice, so they have to bear the consequences. I still remember what those idiots from the Country of Fire said back then. Oh, they want freedom … That's what they said, right? "
"But they were just deceived …"
"Then I can only say that they're unlucky."
Fangzheng shrugged. He still remembered how the Country of Fire contacted the Devil Monarch and gave him a stab. F * ck, luckily I survived. If I couldn't, what would happen to the Tendo Temple and those little girls? Fangzheng didn't dare to think about it. Not to mention the battle at the border of Twilight. Those idiots actually tried to stir up trouble behind his back?
Fangzheng's tolerance for enemies had always been very low. And there was another reason why he felt that Mephisto's suggestion was not bad.
"Miss Fina, let me tell you a story."
"A story?"
"That's right."
Fangzheng picked up a piece of bread and looked at Fina with a smile.
"In a world a long, long time ago, the planet was already overcrowded, and the prisoners in the prisons were even more crowded. Under such circumstances, people came up with a solution. They built a prison on the moon and sent all the prisoners on Earth to the moon prison."
"And then?"
Hearing Fangzheng's story, Fina looked at him curiously. Obviously, this story was quite interesting to Fina.
"After the prisoners in the prison were sent away, the world was naturally peaceful, and the prisoners in the moon prison were soon forgotten. But to everyone's surprise, the prisoners who were sent to the moon prison did not die as they expected. Instead, they worked hard and played to their strengths. Soon, they built a very powerful country. "
Fangzheng continued while pouring another glass of wine in front of him.
"Then the people in the moon prison used their powerful technology to conquer the original planet. In the end, the people of that planet had to sign a treaty with the people in the moon prison and bow down to them."
Having said that, Fangzheng spread out his hands.
"How is it? Isn't it interesting? "
However, compared to Fangzheng, Fina's expression was more serious.
"But according to what you said, Mr. Fangzheng, shouldn't we stop the people of the Country of Fire from leaving?"
"Of course not."
Fangzheng shook his head.
"Every civilization needs opponents because only opponents and enemies will allow it to progress quickly. The Country of Fire has no value in staying here other than to disgust us. But if we send them to another planet, it will be different. When that time comes, Miss Fina, you can tell the whole continent that the people of the Country of Fire made a deal with the devil and went to the vast starry sky. They will return to this world for revenge one day. This way, in order to avoid being powerless in the future, your country and civilization will start to improve desperately. "
"This …"
"If it wasn't for the stimulation of the Country of Fire, do you think the Country of Saints could have developed such a level of floating battleships?"
"… That's true."
"The devil obviously won't be so kind. If they bring the people of the Country of Fire to a new planet, they will naturally spread their hatred for you. Just like the Dark Elves and Elves, they will also desire to improve their technology one day and kill their way back to this continent."
Fangzheng had finished the delicacies in front of him and picked up his wine glass again.
"As the incarnation of the Goddess of Order, you should understand that there is no good or evil in Order. All we need is the power to fight against Chaos. If the civilization of this land loses its power in peace, then not to mention Chaos, it probably won't even be able to deal with the enemies from the moon prison. "
Fina didn't say anything. She understood what Fangzheng meant. To put it bluntly, Fangzheng wanted to create an enemy for the Country of Saints. Only by facing the threat of this enemy would the Country of Saints have the motivation to continue moving forward. Although it was a bit cruel, … she had to admit that it was a really good idea.
In fact, after recovering the Twilight border, Fina also saw a general laziness in the Country of Saints. Most people thought that they should seize the opportunity of recovering the lost land to focus on construction instead of investing resources in the military. Fina also felt that something was wrong. Just as Fangzheng said, without the Tendo Temple, the Country of Saints and the Country of Fire would only be evenly matched.
Not to mention fighting against Chaos.
Fina also knew that there was a very common sentiment in the Country of Saints. Even if the sky fell, the tall ones would hold it up. Even if they couldn't win, there was still the Tendo Temple!
But the problem was that Fina knew very well that now wasn't the time to relax at all.
This period of time was a period of development that Fangzheng fought for for himself and the others. If they didn't seize this time to develop and enjoy life instead, perhaps they would really be pulled down by the Tendo Temple.
Now it seemed that they had found a way to solve this situation.
"There's another very important thing, Mr. Fangzheng."
"Oh? What is it? "
"It's like this. Recently, we've almost recovered the entire Twilight border."
"Almost means that we haven't recovered it yet."
Fangzheng was no fool. He naturally understood what Fina meant.
"That's right. In fact, I originally planned to recover the core area of the Twilight border, but I couldn't go deep at all. There's a deep fog around the core area. Most of the search teams I sent disappeared without a trace. Although a few people were lucky enough to survive, all of them … "
Speaking until here, Fina sighed.
"They've become crazy. There's no way to communicate at all … Not only that, but the appearance of these people has also become as terrifying as if they've been corroded by Chaos … Although I want to go …"
"You'd better stay behind. No one can stand it if it happens again."
Fangzheng didn't need to ask to know that Fina must have been persuaded by others.
"Leave this matter to me … Hmm, I hope it won't be too troublesome."
Speaking until here, Fangzheng deliberately glanced at the system.
Hmm, there's no pop-up mission, so … it shouldn't be a problem?
