Fangzheng finally realised why everyone liked to be a decent person.
As long as you shouted a slogan, you would find that whatever you did was right.
At first, Fangzheng was a little hesitant about whether he should take this strange magic item with him, but now, after seeing the main world mission that the Goddess had given him, he immediately made up his mind. That's right, he was a Paladin blessed by the gods. What's the big deal about killing someone and taking their treasure? All of this was to liberate these suffering souls, to break the evil demons' plot, and for the sake of this world!
Alas, Fangzheng suddenly felt that if he did not take this damn thing away, he would be letting down the people, the party, and the new socialist China …. As a young man born and raised under the red flag of a new society, how could he stop for such a trivial matter?
It was not difficult for Fangzheng to find the magic item. Perhaps the mastermind behind all this never thought that someone could break through the barrier and come to the Otherworld without anyone noticing, so it did not take long for Fangzheng to find the magic item. It was floating directly in the middle of the square.
"That's … a scepter?"
With his extraordinary eyesight, Fangzheng recognized at a glance that the thing floating in the middle of the square was a black scepter about the length of a forearm. It looked very unique, with a big eye inlaid at the top. At this moment, the eye was wide open, looking at the world in front of it. For some reason, Fangzheng had a feeling that the eye was not a work of art carved out of crystal as it looked, but a real living thing ….
"The boss behind the scenes is quite ambitious …."
While muttering to himself, Fangzheng took out his detector and put it on. He locked onto the strange scepter again and began to probe. Sure enough, the system's products were of the highest quality. The moment Fangzheng looked at the scepter, the detector in front of him beeped, and a line of information immediately appeared in front of Fangzheng.
[Artifact: Eye of Nature]
[Grade: Lesser Divine Artifact]
[Effect: The boundless world is filled with illusion and fog. Truth and lies are indistinguishable, and only the self is the eternal and unchanging existence of the multiverse. (Time Mirror Image of a specific target can be summoned from the Void for manipulation. The mirror image's power is half of the target's, unable to select a target with the power of a demigod.]
This thing … is a little interesting ….
Fangzheng stroked his chin as he looked at the information that appeared in front of him. The result of the appraisal of this item was similar to what Nimf's little angel had described. But what surprised Fangzheng was that this thing could actually summon a mirror image from the dimension of time, instead of a simple parallel world.... But then again, even a parallel world had its own theoretical support.
Eh? That's not right!
At this thought, Fangzheng suddenly trembled. According to the description of this scepter, it used the power of time?!
Oh my god, isn't this just right for me?
At present, Fangzheng's development of the [Time Manipulation] ability was only at the most superficial level. At most, he could stop time or project a vision of the future to pretend to be a fraud or something. But as for what other uses of time, Fangzheng had not discovered for the time being.
And now, he actually found a divine artifact that could create illusions based on the power of time?
Such a good thing! I must take it back and study it properly!
Fangzheng had never thought that the power of time could be used to create illusions! No, it should be said that from what he had experienced, what he had seen before was not an illusion, but a projection of this world located in a different dimension of time. This could also explain why his divination spells could not see through it, because these were not completely illusions.
Fangzheng believed that if he could get his hands on this scepter, his development of the power of time might reach a higher level!
So, the next question was … how to get it?
Fangzheng carefully glanced around. The whole square was empty except for the occasional undead creatures that passed by. The scepter was just floating there without any change. It felt like he could reach it as long as he ran over and stretched out his hand. But the more he thought about it, the more cautious Fangzheng became. In all the games in the world, when the protagonist went to get the key equipment, something would definitely happen. There would either be an ambush by a boss or a trap. He was an expert in this kind of planning. It would be a joke if he could still be tricked.
Although Fangzheng still did not know who was behind this, since the goddess had given him a mission, it was obvious that the mastermind behind this was related to the group of people who tried to smuggle in the Dark Swamp. Since the other party had deliberately set up a secret underground hive here, they must have installed all kinds of insurance.
Umbrella even had a laser channel to make the T-virus.
"Truth-seeing!"
To be cautious, Fangzheng cast another Truth-seeing spell on himself. Although the scepter was definitely real, who knew if the things around it were real? What if the square was fake and he sank to the bottom of the sea as soon as he stepped in?
Fortunately, under the investigation of the Truth-seeing spell, Fangzheng was sure that there was no illusion here. Both the scepter and the square next to it were real. But there was another question that puzzled him. Logically speaking, there should be tens of thousands of undead creatures here, so where were these undead creatures?
But Fangzheng soon got the answer to this question.
"… Are these guys building a ship?"
Fangzheng was momentarily dumbfounded as he looked at the distant pier that was so bright that it resembled a city that never sleeps. Of course he could feel that the life energy there was about to break through the sky. To be honest, at first, Fangzheng really did not recognize what kind of place it was, because when they arrived, there was only a pile of junk left. If it were not for Captain Fox, Fangzheng would not have been able to see that those things had anything to do with ship repair and building.
But now, Fangzheng finally saw it clearly.
Huge warships were lined up neatly on the pier. From time to time, skeletons could be seen climbing up and down, knocking on the ships. But what Fangzheng could not understand was that although there were hundreds of these ships, they looked extremely shabby. However, they looked extremely shabby, and each one was even more shabby than the last. Not only were there big holes everywhere on the hull of the ships, but even the sails were basically left with only a few strips of cloth. This made Fangzheng very curious. How did these undead creatures repair the ships all these years?
In other words, the entire port was burning in flames. How were they going to repair the ships?
Forget it, that's not important. Let's get to work first.
Looking at the mission prompt in front of him, Fangzheng retracted his curious thoughts. The main mission clearly stated that he just had to crack this demiplane. Nimf had also told him that the magic item — oh, the Eye of Nature — was used to support and isolate these two planes. In other words, as long as Fangzheng followed his original goal and snatched away the scepter, the barrier between the two planes would disappear, and the two planes would begin to fuse. Without the protection of the barrier, the vengeful souls would be liberated, and his mission in the main world would be completed …. Hmm, that was easy.
"Tiria, you'll be in charge of providing support here. I'll go and see if I can get the scepter."
Although Fangzheng could have just sent Tiria to scout the way, considering that she had already addressed him as' Big Brother ', Fangzheng naturally went ahead. Fortunately, Fangzheng's secondary school of magic included the defensive school, so he immediately cast a bunch of defensive spells on himself. From 'Magic Nullification Boundary' to 'Excellent Resistance', from 'Advanced Magic Transmission Alarm' to 'Stone Skin', he basically cast all sorts of physical and elemental defensive barriers. Then, Fangzheng looked left and right, then leaped out of the ruins and landed firmly on the ground.
Of course, if possible, the safest thing for Fangzheng would be to use 'Futuristic Vision'. But for some reason, when Fangzheng used 'Futuristic Vision' to look at the scepter, he could not see what would happen to him next. The 'Prophecy' spell did not yield anything either. In desperation, Fangzheng had no choice but to bite the bullet.
Then, Fangzheng raised his head and looked forward. The next moment, his figure instantly disappeared and appeared in front of the scepter that was floating in the sky. Then, Fangzheng stretched out his right hand and grabbed the scepter!
And then … he was left hanging there.
What the hell?
Holding the scepter in one hand, Fangzheng looked at the ground under his feet in surprise. He had mentally prepared himself for things like guardian beasts or triggering traps, but Fangzheng never thought he would end up like this.
