Hearing Fina's request, Fangzheng nodded in agreement. The two of them went to a camp at the frontline of the Twilight Border. There, Fangzheng saw two familiar faces.
"Hey, Bishop Karl, Lord Stone, it's been a long time."
Fangzheng chuckled and waved his hand when he saw the duo in front of him. Upon seeing his arrival, the two of them nodded in return.
"It's been a long time …. No, why do I feel like it hasn't been that long?"
"It's been almost a year and a half since we last met. It feels like a long time."
"You're right …."
Upon hearing their sentiments, Fangzheng shrugged his shoulders. The last time he met them was when the Golden Dragon invited him to a banquet. After that, a series of events happened. Although the Heavenly Dao Palace and the Nation of Saints attacked the Twilight Border together, both sides were busy fighting at that time, so they didn't have much interaction.
Since then, Fangzheng has been busy with his own affairs, and he spent many years in other worlds …. Come to think of it, for Stone and Karl, it had only been a year since they last met Fangzheng, but for Fangzheng, it had been decades.
"Bishop Karl, how's the situation?"
After the two sides exchanged greetings, Fina immediately got to the point. Bishop Karl frowned and shook his head.
"It's not working. So far, there's still no sign of the fog dissipating."
"Let me see …."
Fangzheng walked to the edge of the camp and looked ahead. Sure enough, he saw a thick fog shrouding the mountains not far away. It looked like layers of clouds, hiding everything in the white fog.
"Truth Seeing."
Fangzheng decisively used the spell, but it still had no effect.
So next ….
Fangzheng turned on his personal terminal and connected to a low-Earth orbit satellite. But even if he used the satellite to detect, the result was still the same. The area was covered in fog, so he could not see anything at all.
"What the hell is going on?"
Fangzheng narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself. He turned around and looked at Bishop Karl.
"Bishop Karl, I heard from Miss Fina that some victims came back …. Are they still alive?"
"They're alive, but …."
At this point, Bishop Karl hesitated slightly.
"But their appearance …."
"Anyway, let's take a look first."
Although this was Fangzheng's own suggestion, he regretted it the moment he walked into the tent.
"What the hell …."
Looking at the "patient" lying on the bed in front of him, Fangzheng could not help but twitch his eyes. The current appearance of the person in front of him was just too... disgusting!
"Ugh …. Ugh … Ugh … Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
"Ugh … Ugh … Ah!"
Seeing Fangzheng walking away, the "person" who was lying on the bed suddenly screamed in horror. He twisted his body desperately as if trying to escape, but there was no way for him to get away. Not only that, along with the person's movements, a strange stench emitted from his body. It was disgusting.
"Pull yourself together!"
Seeing this, Fina hurriedly raised the scepter in her hand and … .knocked it on the person's head.
Thud.
With a soft thud, the person who was still struggling closed his eyes and fainted.
"…. Didn't you tell him to pull himself together just now?"
Fangzheng looked at the unconscious victim, then at Fina. He felt like he was hallucinating just now.
"His soul is being distorted. There's nothing we can do. We can only make him lose consciousness temporarily."
Saying that, the scepter in Fina's hand flashed with a white beam of light and enveloped the victim. Soon, the victim's originally rapid breathing gradually calmed down.
"But we can't reverse this at all …."
"Why?"
"Because this isn't the work of Chaos."
"It's not the work of Chaos … .Huh? It's true! "
Hearing Fina's words, Fangzheng was taken aback for a moment, but he immediately realized what was going on. Indeed, when he first saw this guy just now, he instinctively thought that he was a victim of the aura of Chaos, just like the magical beasts that had been corrupted by Chaos. But after taking a closer look, he found that although this person's appearance was hard to accept, … .there really wasn't the slightest aura of Chaos!
"Didn't you guys purify the aura of Chaos?"
After all, there were Paladins, Archbishops, and the Pope here. Wouldn't it be easy to purify the aura of Chaos?
"That's not the case, Mr. Fangzheng. In fact, when he came out of there, there wasn't the slightest aura of Chaos on him, so …."
"…."
No wonder Fina had a troubled expression on her face. It did look a little unusual.
"Then let me try again."
After taking another look at the patient, Fangzheng immediately left the smelly tent. He took out Doraemon from his inventory and tossed it out. Doraemon swayed in the air a few times, then quickly flew forward into the thick fog. At the same time, Fangzheng turned on his personal terminal and began to carefully observe the scene on it.
In the image, Doraemon kept flying forward, but he didn't see anything. There was only fog in front of him. Then … the signal was cut off.
"… .Huh?"
Fangzheng was dumbfounded. What's going on? The signal was cut off?
Are you kidding me?
From the looks of it, Doraemon had only flown a few hundred meters inside the cave.
If that's the case ….
"Iona, is the reassembly mech repaired?"
Fangzheng immediately contacted his flagship.
"Reporting, Commander. The reassembly mech has been repaired."
"Good. Shoot at the coordinates. I'd like to see what the hell this thing is!"
A few seconds after Fangzheng's voice faded, a dazzling beam of light fell from the sky and heavily bombarded the fog. Following the impact of the beam of light, the fog gradually began to roll and rotate. However … after the beam of light disappeared, the fog did not dissipate. It returned to its original state.
"This is interesting."
Seeing this, Fangzheng finally focused his attention. He raised his right hand. Soon, a spark appeared on Fangzheng's fingertip. Fangzheng bent his finger and flicked it. The spark instantly turned into a huge fire dragon and rushed into the fog with a roar. Soon, flames burst out and tore through the thick fog.
"Hehehe, I'd like to see what's hidden in here …."
However, before Fangzheng could finish his sentence, a deep rumble suddenly sounded. The ground began to tremble, and the ground cracked. The surroundings quaked and the mountains shook. Flames could even be seen shooting up from the cracks in the ground. It looked as if the sky was falling and the earth was cracking. Upon seeing this scene, Fangzheng was alarmed. He hurriedly retracted the flames, and as the flames disappeared, the disaster from before gradually came to a stop.
"Mr. Fangzheng, what happened?!"
Fina and the others also hurried over. Fangzheng shook his head in embarrassment.
"It's nothing big. I just wanted to see if I could get rid of the fog, but it seems that I've gone too far …."
"I see …."
After hearing Fangzheng's explanation, Fina breathed a sigh of relief, but her expression became even more serious.
"But since it can affect the whole world, it means that the situation may be more serious than we thought."
"By the way, don't you know what's in here?"
Fangzheng looked at Fina in puzzlement. She was the Goddess of Order, so she should know what's in here. But ….
"I'm very sorry, Mr. Fangzheng. I'm just a reincarnated body. It's true that I have the knowledge of the Goddess of Order in my mind, but many of the things she did were not passed on to me."
"Then let me ask the others …."
Hearing this, Fangzheng had no choice but to contact the collective of the Goddess of Order again. He let the group of schizophrenics argue for an hour. Finally, an ancient collective expressed that she had similar content in her memory. She knew more or less that the Goddess of Order's main body seemed to be conducting some kind of experiment. As for what kind of experiment it was … .well, for the sake of safety and confidentiality, it had been deleted from her memory.
Motherf * cker, is it really okay to be so ruthless?
At least leave a keyword! Was there a need to be so secretive? Although it was understandable that it was to prevent the erosion of Chaos, but … .well, it was useless to say that now.
The Goddess of Order absolutely could not write a detective story. With her style, if she went to a detective story and became a criminal, even Sherlock Holmes, Kaneda, and Conan would all hang themselves.
She wouldn't give you any chances or clues!
What should I do?
After hanging up the phone, Fangzheng looked at the fog in front of him and rubbed his chin.
Should I … .go in and take a look?
Actually, it was fine not to go in. According to the practice in many animated movies, this kind of forbidden area was usually left unattended after it was sealed. Like the forbidden areas in the internet, no one had ever seen a legendary powerhouse rush into them for no reason. These kinds of places were usually reserved for the main character to go in and have a narrow escape from death to obtain an opportunity to comprehend a mighty power …. Wait, I'm the main character, right?
Thinking of this, Fangzheng calmed down.
He was now supported by the main character aura of a romance world. What was there to be afraid of?
But although Fangzheng had decided to go, there was still a problem.
And that was, the others had to go with him.
In the past, when Fangzheng went to other worlds, because of the time difference, the little ones in the Tendo Temple did not have to wait too long. But this time, in the world of the coordinates, because the time was relatively consistent, and the coordinates were suspected to be contaminated by Chaos, Fangzheng forbade others from entering. This made the little girls very frustrated.
After that, Fangzheng took the time to come back and make an appointment with Asuna, Ying Lili, and the others to appease them, but there were still many little girls who had not had their turn yet.
At this time, they naturally wanted to go with Fangzheng to see what was in the fog.
In this situation, the two sides could not come to an agreement. In the end, they decided to draw lots to decide the winner, and the winner was ….
"I didn't expect you to come."
Looking at the little angel in front of him, Fangzheng sighed, while Nimf blinked in embarrassment.
"Because I haven't gone on an adventure with Master for a long time."
"Yeah … It's been a long time."
Hearing Nimf's answer, Fangzheng couldn't help but feel emotional. Ever since the Tendo Temple was built, Nimf had been staying in the Tendo Temple. Except for the Pale Blue Fleet event, she had never left. Now that he thought about it, it had indeed been a long time since he went on an adventure with Nimf.
"Well then, let's go."
At this thought, Fangzheng stretched out his hand and stroked Nimf's little head. Nimf blushed and nodded.
Then, the two walked into the depths of the thick fog.
