The appearance of the black dragon naturally caused a commotion in Libel. Not only were the guerrillas gathered to search for the ancient dragon, even the royal family of Libel had invited many experts in historical research to find out the true identity of the terrifying behemoth that appeared after the ancient dragon went on a rampage.
However, this was not something that Fangzheng needed to worry about. After dealing with the association's brainless operation, he went to Crossrail.
Based on Fangzheng's experience in the Monster World, he knew that humans were creatures that were good at making up stories. There was no need for him to say too much. He just needed to show his face and say a few words and the humans would fill in the rest for him. The ups and downs in the story might even be bigger than his own imagination.
Since they were so good at making up stories, why should he waste his brain cells?
Am I right?
On the other side of the Kingdom of Libel, although Fangzheng had made a statement, after a meeting, they decided to track down and eliminate the threat of the association themselves. The reason was very simple. Although that terrifying dragon did indeed possess unimaginable power, the opponent's strength was just too terrifying. Especially after the huge dragon left, the royal army even specially went to the mountain peak where it had landed to take a closer look. In the end, he was almost scared to death. He saw that the originally towering mountain range had now been trampled into pieces by the huge dragon. Fortunately, there was no one around. Otherwise, nothing would have been left behind.
Under such circumstances, how could they dare to hand over the Society to that giant dragon? What if the Society caused trouble in the Royal City like before, and the dragon came over — — Not to mention, the moment it landed on the Royal City, the entire Royal City would be completely destroyed.
So Libel took action again and began to speed up the investigation of the association. They did not want the association to cause any trouble before that and lure the dragon out again. When that time came, it was unknown whether the association or the dragon would be a greater threat to Libel.
This was naturally what Fangzheng wanted to see. So, after making sure that Libel's butt was on fire, he patted his butt and turned around to go to Crossbell again.
This time, Fangzheng didn't go to Crossrail for a date, but for business. The first thing was to treat the eyes of the daughter of the Wind Sword Sage, Ariosse.
"She's a very cute child."
Standing in the ward, Fangzheng looked at the girl lying on the bed and nodded to Arios.
"No problem, it's very simple to cure it.... But do you want some extra benefits?"
"Extra … benefits?"
"Yeah."
Fangzheng shrugged in response to Arios' doubtful gaze.
"It's easy to cure him, but the child is still young and lacks the means to protect himself. So … do you want the Magic Eye? I'll give it to you for free. "
What Fangzheng was referring to were the Demonic Eyes he had collected back when he transformed into a red ponytail and robbed a Demonic Eye Train in the Moon World. These Demonic Eyes had been placed in the warehouse all this while, and Fangzheng had never used them. Now, they were almost accumulating dust. If he had a place to use them, it would be a good investment.
"What … are Magic Eyes?"
"Simply put, they're eyes with special powers. For example, they can see the future, perceive the past, charm and manipulate humans, petrify things they see, immobilize the other party's movements, and completely restrain them. They can also be used to precisely analyze the shaping of various objects, see goblins and monsters that ordinary people can't see, read other people's emotions, distort space, and see the death of all things.... Well, don't even think about that. "
"… ….."
Arios was speechless after listening to Fangzheng's introduction. When he saw Fangzheng take out a list from his pocket, he was even more speechless.
"Uhh … Lord Fangzheng, what are these Magic Eyes …."
"Oh, there's a train in another world that specializes in collecting magic eyes. I had a fight with them and seized their collection. I thought that it would be useless to leave them in the warehouse since they would just gather dust. If you want, you might as well transplant a pair of magic eyes to Zhui."
"… ….."
Arios looked at the list in his hand and hesitated for a while. In the end, he returned it.
"I'm sorry, Lord Fangzheng. I just want her to be an ordinary girl …."
"That's fine. After all, I'm just asking."
Fangzheng was not surprised by Arios' answer. He put away the list, turned on his personal terminal, and brought up the medical glue. Arios saw Fangzheng stretch out his hand and place it in front of his daughter. A golden light emerged from his hand and shone on the girl's face. After a while, Fangzheng withdrew his hand.
"It's done."
"… … Huh?"
Perhaps because it was too short, Arios did not even have time to react.
"That's it, my lord?"
"It's just an old nerve injury. It may be a little difficult for the medicine of this world, but for us, it's no more troublesome than catching a cold."
Fangzheng clapped his hands.
"Then, when she wakes up, she should be able to see it. How you explain it to the hospital and her is your own business. I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave first. Let's talk again when we have time."
"… … Thank you for your help, Lord Fangzheng."
Arios clenched the long sword in his hand and bowed his head deeply to Fangzheng. Fangzheng waved his hand and walked out of the ward.
After leaving the hospital, Fangzheng's next destination was a house in the high-class residential area of Crossrail.
Or rather, this was his main goal in coming to Crossrail.
"Ding dong."
Not long after the doorbell rang, the door opened. Then, a girl with long silver hair appeared in front of Fangzheng. Upon seeing Fangzheng appear, the girl was immediately alarmed.
"Huh? Mr. Fangzheng? "
"Yo, Allie, did you do your homework properly?"
"Huh? That … … This … … "
"Hahaha, just kidding."
Looking at the confused Allie, Fangzheng laughed. No matter who it was, seeing a teacher come to check on the progress of homework during the holidays would probably be a nightmare.
"Is Chancellor McDowell here? I have something to discuss with him. "
"Ah, Grandfather is home. Please follow me, Mr. Fangzheng."
Hearing this, Allie breathed a sigh of relief. She led Fangzheng into her house and to the study on the second floor. Allie entered the room. After a while, the door opened again.
"Please come in, Mr. Fangzheng."
"Okay."
Fangzheng nodded and walked into the study. Behind the desk, Chancellor McDowell was sitting. When he saw Fangzheng come in, the old man stood up and smiled.
"Hello, Mr. Fangzheng."
"Hello, Chancellor McDowell. It's a little presumptuous of me to visit you, but I have something to discuss with you."
"Of course not. Allie …."
"Okay, Grandfather."
Allie obviously knew that she shouldn't interrupt the conversation between the two, so she nodded and was about to leave. But at that moment, Fangzheng spoke.
"Miss Allie can stay. I think it'll be good for her to listen in."
"Oh?"
Chancellor McDowell was taken aback when he heard Fangzheng's request. He looked at Allie in silence for a moment.
"Okay, Allie. Come and listen in."
"Okay!"
Allie hurriedly found a seat and sat down. She stared at both sides curiously. She was also very puzzled about what Fangzheng wanted to talk about with her grandfather.
As for Fangzheng, he changed his posture and stared at the old man in front of him.
"Actually, I plan to run for the Parliament of Crossrail."
"Huh?!"
Allie was shocked when she heard Fangzheng's words. Even Chancellor McDowell showed a surprised expression.
"I didn't expect this, Mr. Fangzheng. Are you sure you want to do this?"
"Yes, I think I'm qualified."
"Of course."
Chancellor McDowell nodded.
"So you're here to get my support?"
"Oh, not really. I just want to tell you that after I become a Parliament member, I will push for Crossrail's independence."
Fangzheng casually dropped a bomb. For a moment, Chancellor McDowell and Allie didn't seem to understand what he was saying. After a while, the old man seemed to have woken up from a dream and suddenly jumped up from the chair.
"What did you say?"
"Don't be so agitated, Chancellor McDowell. You're old. Being too agitated isn't good for your health."
Fangzheng acted as if he didn't notice McDowell's reaction. He leisurely picked up the teacup and took a sip of the black tea.
"In fact, not long ago, I was kidnapped by IBC's CEO Dita. At that time, he invited me to join his camp to push for Crossrail's independence. In fact, not only him, but Lawyer Ian and Arios were also present. They were also CEO Dita's helpers."
"Lawyer Ian?"
"Yes, by the way, the reason why that unlucky policeman Guy Bennings died was because he investigated CEO Dita's secret plan and was shot by Lawyer Ian."
"I see …"
Chancellor McDowell heaved a sigh of relief and sat down on the chair with a solemn expression.
"I saw the news about Lawyer Ian turning himself in. At that time, I was very puzzled as to why Lawyer Ian would attack the police. So that's why …"
"Even Mr. Arios is among them?"
However, compared to that, Allie was more surprised by something else.
"Mr. Ariosse, he actually …"
"Is that strange?"
"Of course it's strange. Mr. Fangzheng, Mr. Arios is the patron saint of Crossrail. Everyone here loves him so much. How could he be involved in such a plan?"
"Such a plan? Do you think this plan is bad? "
"This …"
Faced with Fangzheng's question, Allie was speechless for a while. Fangzheng stood up and walked to the window to look at the bustling city outside.
"Crossrail, the bustling city, the shining pearl. But you should know what's hidden behind this bright and beautiful city. The Empire and the Republic use this place as an arena to secretly carry out all kinds of shameful confrontations and means. They infiltrated Crossrail and even tried to completely control this place. For this, they did not hesitate to use all kinds of means here. Lawyer Ian and Ariosse both suffered greatly. Their relatives were involved in the conflict between the two and lost their lives. Ariosse's daughter was blinded because of it …. So why do you think they didn't participate in this plan? "
"Huh? Wait, but … "
Hearing this, Allie froze for a moment.
"But if I remember correctly, CEO Dita died of a sudden illness. Didn't Lawyer Ian also turn himself in?"
"Because I'm not interested in his plan."
Fangzheng picked up the teacup again and took a sip of tea.
"At that time, CEO Dita's idea was to use the cult controlled by his clan to carry out a full-scale attack on Crossrail, thus arousing the sense of crisis among the citizens of Crossrail. Then, he would add fuel to the fire. Then, he would throw himself into politics and naturally become the mayor of Crossrail. He would then declare Crossrail's independence."
"…"
Hearing Fangzheng explain Dita's plan in detail, Chancellor McDowell and Allie broke out in cold sweat. They could imagine what kind of impact this plan would have on the whole of Crossrail.
"This plan of pretending to be the bad guy and the good guy sounds brilliant, but if it's messed up, it'll be completely over. So, of course I'm not willing to play along. To be honest, from my standpoint, I originally hoped to hand Crossrail over to either the Republic or the Empire, but Crossrail has a special status. This place has changed hands several times. To be honest, it's impossible to know whether this land originally belonged to the Republic or the Empire. "
Fangzheng was not lying. If Crossrail was originally a territory that belonged to a country but was forced to separate for some reason, then Fangzheng would definitely join forces with either the Republic or the Empire to occupy this place. But the fact was that this place had been occupied and ruled by both sides for a long time.
For example, this was like Crossrail being ruled by the Empire for a hundred years, then by the Republic for another hundred years, then by the Empire for another hundred years, then by the Republic for another hundred years …
Under such circumstances, there was no way to tell which country this land belonged to.
"Crossrail is just a twisted land. The people here have no dignity, let alone rights."
Fangzheng stretched out his finger and pointed at the world outside the window.
"Why do you think Lawyer Ian and Arios chose to join CEO Dita's plan? Was it just because of the death of their loved ones? Of course not. What they were angry about was that even though their loved ones had died, Crossbell could not find the culprit. Isn't that right? Speaker McDowell. "
"Woo …"
When he heard Fangzheng's question, Speaker McDowell's face instantly turned green.
"The law of Klossberg can only punish the people of Klossberg, but it can't punish the people of other countries, no matter how serious the crimes they have committed in Klossberg. To tell the truth, in my opinion,
The Crossrail people who live on this land have no dignity to speak of. They are merely chess pieces that can be played by others at will. "
"F- Mr. Fangzheng, you've gone too far."
At this moment, Allie couldn't help but refute, but Fangzheng just glanced at her.
"Too much? It's the truth, Ellie. If your grandfather was killed by someone from the Empire or the Republic, and the only thing Crossrail could do was to expel them from the country, what would you think? They killed your loved ones, then returned to their country and continued to live freely, while you could only taste the pain of losing your loved ones alone … Haha, what do you think? "
"…"
This time, Allie didn't say anything.
"The reason why Crossrail is peaceful now is that it's still very prosperous for the time being. But when this prosperity recedes, the people's anger will completely erupt. I don't agree with CEO Dita's methods, but I'm quite interested in Crossrail's goal of independence. That's why I came to you, Speaker McDowell. "
As he spoke, Fangzheng turned his head and looked at McDowell.
