What bad luck!
Fangzheng cursed inwardly as he looked at the fire rising into the sky in the distance.
The Octopus Lord was a living creature, so of course it wouldn't explode. So it was easy to imagine where the fire came from. He didn't expect the damn Giant of Light to have such a trick … But when he thought about it, it was only normal.
"Javelin, take us to the crash site! The others, get ready to build a base here! "
After quickly giving the order, Fangzheng immediately boarded the hovering Hidden Bomb and brought Nimf, Fina, and the others to the crash site of the Giant of Light.
The self-destruction triggered by the Giant of Light directly blasted a large pit in the ground. When Fangzheng arrived, the huge Octopus Lord had been completely roasted to a crisp. It couldn't even be eaten. But Fangzheng didn't care about the roasted octopus. He signaled Javelin to activate the Traction Aura and pull the damn octopus aside. Then, he hurried to the wreckage of the Giant of Light.
From the outside, the Giant of Light was completely finished. The original brilliance at the joints of the armour had long disappeared. It looked like a pile of empty armour scattered all over the ground. There were no biological remains on the ground. It was evident that the Giant of Light was just as Fangzheng had thought. It was just a self-regulating defensive device.
"Javelin, collect all the wreckage."
Looking at the wreckage of the Giant of Light in front of him, Fangzheng was speechless. He didn't expect that the thing that could cause chaos in the entire Northern Lands would end up like this. It felt like it had a strong start and a weak finish. Until now, he still didn't know why the thing was activated. As for the bathroom of the Goddess … Sigh, whoever wants to go can go. Fangzheng decided to go back to the Tendo Temple and exchange for a hot spring to enjoy.
Compared to the Flower Pavilion, the Joyous Jade Manor …
"Commander!"
Just as Fangzheng's mind began to wander, the sound of a javelin suddenly interrupted his train of thought.
"I found something strange."
"Oh?"
Hearing Javelin's report, Fangzheng returned to his senses and looked at the screen. Soon, he saw the tractor beam "grabbing" a strange, hexagonal object from the wreckage of the giant of light and slowly flying towards the warship. It looked like a huge polished gem, but as the light shone on it, ripples appeared on its surface like a water ball.
Although it was a little strange, this thing gave Fangzheng a strange feeling of softness and hardness. Not only that, but the glow of this "gem" was also very strange. When Fangzheng first saw it, it was yellow, but then it seemed to "gradually" turn orange-red, and when it flew halfway, it began to turn "purple."
A gemstone whose nature and color were constantly changing? But why do I feel like something is wrong?
"Doubt?"
At this moment, Nimf widened her eyes curiously.
"Master, this thing … is a little strange!"
"Strange?"
"That's right."
In response to Fangzheng's question, Nimf nodded vigorously.
"Master, you should have noticed that the nature, color, density, and even the radiation frequency and signal of this gemstone are constantly changing, but its shape has never changed!"
"That's right! That's it! "
Hearing Nimf's reminder, Fangzheng clapped his hands. He had felt that there was something wrong with this gemstone. Now that he heard Nimf's words, he realized something was wrong. Logically speaking, the shape of a gemstone with almost all its information changing at any time should be random, but the shape of this gemstone was a fixed hexagonal shape!
That was very unusual!
"Nimf, what do you think?"
"I can detect that there is some kind of rule on the surface of this gemstone that's fixing it, but I need to further test what it is. But I'm sure it's some kind of substance. "
At this point, a smile appeared on Nymoff's petite face. Originally, the Goddess of Order's analysis of "skipping the process to obtain the result" had already caused the little angel to lose all her face. Because random processes couldn't be observed or fixed, there was no way for her to perform scanning and research.
But now that this thing was solid, there was a possibility that the little angel could analyze it. This made Nimf instantly regain her confidence.
"Let's bring this thing back to the base for the time being. After confirming that it's harmless, we'll move it to the Tendo Temple."
Although this thing was the remnant of the Goddess of Order's guardian, Fangzheng could not guarantee that it was harmless. After all, in sci-fi movies, there were many plots where seemingly harmless things were brought back to cause disasters. Just in case, he decided to study the remnant of the giant of light here first. After confirming that there was no problem, he would bring it back to the Tendo Temple to deal with it.
When Fangzheng returned to the teleportation point, thanks to the hard work of the female explorers, the prototype of a base had already been built. Commander Wales had also arrived. After learning from Fangzheng that the giant of light had self-destructed in the battle with the Magical Beasts Lord, the commander could not help but sigh.
But no matter what, the reason for the Magical Beasts Riot in the North had been found, and they could be considered to have occupied most of the North.
But to Wales and Bishop Karl's surprise …
"Your Excellency Fangzheng, aren't you going to occupy this area?"
Karl's eyes widened in surprise. He looked at Fangzheng in front of him, not knowing what to say for a moment. Originally, he thought that Fangzheng would propose a territorial claim here, but what Karl did not expect was that after Fangzheng found him, he only said that he planned to return to the Tendo Temple. At present, there was no great danger in this area. The source of the Magical Beasts Riot had been found, and the Magical Beasts Lords in this land of chaos had also suffered heavy casualties.
Since his mission had been completed and he had obtained what he needed, Fangzheng had no interest in continuing to stay in this land of ice and snow.
However, this was unexpected for Bishop Karl. He did not expect that Fangzheng would have no interest in such a large piece of land!
"I think the Tendo Temple is quite good, and I don't plan to move at the moment. My mission has been completed, so I'll leave this area to the Holy Cathedral."
Fangzheng expressed that he really had no interest in this godforsaken place at all. Not to mention that the climate of this land of chaos was sub-frigid, and the Tendo Temple had not yet reached the point where they needed to migrate. Needless to say, compared to a territory that could not be moved, Fangzheng preferred a base camp that could be moved at any time and anywhere.
"This …."
To be honest, when he heard Fangzheng's answer, Karl was completely dumbfounded. He had originally discussed with the Holy Cathedral that if Fangzheng had any interest in this land, the Holy Cathedral could directly give this land to Fangzheng. At the same time, they could also use his merits to hang a name in the Holy Cathedral. But what Karl did not expect was that Fangzheng actually left without any hesitation.
"Do you really not have any special requests?"
"Hmm …."
Fangzheng was not a fool. He naturally understood what Karl meant. After all, if they wanted to have a good relationship, it was necessary to exchange interests and cooperate with each other. If Fangzheng did not accept any benefits from the Holy Cathedral, it would be difficult for the Holy Cathedral to have further contact with the Tendo Temple.
Therefore, after a moment of silence, he finally nodded.
"How about this, Bishop Karl? I heard that there are spirit crystal veins in the depths of this land that has been eroded by Chaos for many years. If you find a spirit crystal vein here, I hope to obtain the right to mine it. Also, the temporary base that I built before can also be considered the area of the Tendo Temple. I hope that you will not let anyone near it. "
"Of course, that's not a problem."
Faced with Fangzheng's request, Bishop Karl nodded and quickly agreed. Spirit Crystal ore veins were extremely rare resources, but just as Fangzheng had said, land that had been eroded by Chaos usually gathered a large amount of violent magic, so the ores that had been eroded by the magic could easily be converted into Spirit Crystal ore veins.
In the land of Chaos, such spirit crystal veins were the most common. But due to the characteristics of the land of Chaos, very few people went to mine them. They could only wait for someone to dispel the Chaos in the land of Chaos and transform it into an Order territory before entering it to explore. As spirit crystals were considered military resources, such matters were usually completed by the country.
After confirming the location of the spirit crystal veins, these countries would send their subordinates or certain families to be in charge of mining the veins. And in Bishop Karl's opinion, Fangzheng's request for the right to mine the spirit crystal veins was no problem at all.
After confirming all this, for Fangzheng, the war in the North had come to an end. They had occupied nearly four-fifths of the land in the North and most of the Chaos Demon Lords had been eliminated.
But to Fangzheng's disappointment, he didn't find anything useful here. The only thing he found was the Goddess' hot spring, a broken shell of the Goddess's Guardian, and a large group of Hummingbirds.
As for the Goddess' hot spring and the Hummingbirds … Well, Fangzheng didn't want to bother with them. He would leave them to the Holy Cathedral to deal with.
After leaving Rodney, the Underworld, and Terror in the North to provide support, Fangzheng returned to the Tendo Temple with the rest. Meanwhile, Fangzheng headed to the Predator World right away.
