Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
"This is my first time in South America."
After getting off the plane, Fangzheng looked at the exotic scenery in front of him and could not help but sigh.
"Looks like we can have a good trip this time. Let's go, Aster."
"Hey, wait, where are you going?"
Seeing that Fangzheng was about to leave with Aster, the mercenary captain hurriedly asked. Facing his question, Fangzheng just waved his hand.
"Aster and I are going to walk around and enjoy the scenery. I'll leave the old bat and the poor kid to you, Mr. Captain."
"Sigh …."
Looking at Fangzheng and Aster leaving, Bernadotte was speechless. This time, he also received orders to accompany Fangzheng and Akkad to Rio de Janeiro to find information about the mysterious organization in South America. But he did not expect that Fangzheng would part ways with them as soon as they got off the plane ….
But what could he do? He was in despair!
"Sigh …."
Bernadotte sighed again and turned his head to look at Akkad, who was wearing a black suit and striding down from the plane behind him …. For a moment, he only felt that the future was bleak ….
But of course, the feelings of the unlucky mercenary captain were not what Fangzheng was concerned about. In fact, he had already left the airport with Aster. At the same time, he picked up a guide map of Rio de Janeiro and began to think about where he should go to have a good time.
"Well … .first, let's go see the Christ statue, then go to Bread Mountain, then eat some local delicacies …."
Since it was all reimbursed by the British government, he would not miss the opportunity to eat and drink with public funds!
"Master."
While Fangzheng was planning the tour route, Aster, who was following him, suddenly spoke.
"Someone is following us."
"Let them follow us."
Hearing Aster's reminder, Fangzheng replied without looking back. In fact, when they left the airport, Fangzheng had already noticed that someone was following them. However, Fangzheng didn't care. They were here for a fishing mission. If the fish took the bait, it would be great for Fangzheng. Of course, it didn't matter if the fish didn't take the bait. For Fangzheng, his main purpose in coming here was to travel and fight. As for the investigation … .he still had Akkad and the mercenary.
After deciding on the itinerary, Fangzheng immediately called a taxi and left the airport with Aster.
Shortly after they left, a pitch-black car started up silently and followed behind Fangzheng's taxi.
It was currently the tourist season. Bustling crowds and loud music could be seen everywhere. Rio de Janeiro wasn't a very modern city, but it had a unique charm. Fangzheng was quite relaxed. He took Aster around. First, they visited the famous Christ Statue in Rio de Janeiro. Then, they went for a stroll around Bread Mountain. As for the investigation and search, Fangzheng didn't even think about it. After all, he was on a date with a girl!
Wouldn't it be the same to wait until after the date?
"Master."
Just as Fangzheng left Bread Mountain with Aster, Aster suddenly stretched out her hand and pulled Fangzheng's sleeve. The silver-haired beauty stretched out her hand and pointed to the roadside.
"What's that?"
"Oh?"
Upon hearing Aster's request, Fangzheng looked in the direction she was pointing and saw an ice cream truck parked on the roadside not far away. Esther, on the other hand, was staring at the ice cream on the table. Apparently, he was quite interested in this food.
"Haven't you eaten it before? Ice cream? "
"No."
Aster shook her head in response to Fangzheng's question.
"In my world, only the Bladedancer can create ice and snow, but I've never seen them make something edible out of ice and snow."
What's a Bladedancer?
Although Fangzheng was puzzled, he didn't ask any more questions. He also knew that Esther came here from another world, so there were many things in this world that he didn't know much about. However, Esther wasn't a bumpkin from the countryside. In the days he spent with her, Fangzheng realized that although Esther's original world wasn't a technological civilization, it wasn't a backward civilization either. At least, many modern products in Aster's world had something similar.
Like refrigerators and showers, Aster also had similar products in her world, but they weren't powered by electricity. Instead, they were controlled by some kind of sprite …. This was a very different place.
"It's not bad to have ice cream in this weather."
Fangzheng looked up at the scorching sun, then led Aster to the ice cream truck.
"What flavor do you want? Aster? "
"Hmm …."
Upon hearing Fangzheng's question, Aster stared at the ice cream in front of her for a moment, then pointed to one of them.
"That."
"Okay, please give me two vanilla ice creams."
After hearing Esther's answer, Fangzheng ordered two servings of vanilla ice cream and handed one to Esther. The Bladedancer curiously moved closer to the ice cream and twitched her little nose like a little animal probing for unknown food. Then, she stuck out her tongue and licked it gently.
"Hmm …."
The next moment, Esther showed a satisfied expression and closed his eyes slightly.
"How does it taste?"
"Very delicious."
Although Aster's expression didn't change much, it was obvious from her brisk tone that she liked this kind of food very much. Looking at Aster's happy expression, Fangzheng nodded.
But then again, if Nimf was here, what would she say?
Thinking of his little angel, Fangzheng's mood became a little gloomy. He held out his hand and felt the invisible chain wrapped around his right hand. Although the chain was still in Fangzheng's hands, he couldn't get in touch with the little angel through the chain. He also didn't know the current situation in the Tendo Temple ….
"Master?"
But at that moment, Aster's voice suddenly sounded again. Fangzheng looked down and saw his Bladedancer staring at him quietly with her eyes open.
"Are you in a bad mood?"
"Sorry, I thought of something. It's about my companion. "
Upon hearing Aster's question, Fangzheng showed a bitter smile. He reached out his hand and stroked Aster's little head.
"Companion?"
"Yeah, maybe you don't know yet, but before you came, I also summoned a few elves. Hmm …. But for some reason, I was temporarily separated from them and couldn't contact them. Because of that, I'm more or less worried about them. "
As he spoke, Fangzheng gazed at the street in front of him. It was already dusk. People could still be seen playing on the beach in the distance. Cheerful music drifted along with the wind, but it gave Fangzheng a feeling of being in a different world.
No, it should be said that for Fangzheng, this was indeed a different world.
"… I really don't know when I can return to the Tendo Temple …."
Fangzheng muttered to himself. After the nightmare in the Yanan world and now being trapped in such a crazy place, Fangzheng felt a little tired. He already wanted to go back to his own world, to the Tendo Temple. When he walked on the street, he could see the happy smiling faces of the cursed children. When he returned home, Xia Shi and Tina would come up to greet him. Everyone would have a lively dinner together. Tiria would secretly flirt with him behind Hecate's back. Vampires and Yan Zhu would quarrel, and Bushita would mediate between them …. Occasionally, when they were free, they would go out for a picnic in the grassland ….
Most importantly, for Fangzheng, that was his home.
At that moment, Fangzheng felt a soft and warm body hugging him. Then, in front of Fangzheng, Aster's beautiful, delicate, dreamy, and lovely face appeared.
"Aster?"
"Master, I will always be by your side."
Staring at Fangzheng in front of her, Aster said solemnly, "I'm Master's contracted elf.
"I am Master's contracted spirit. I will never leave Master."
"Thank you, Aster."
Hearing Aster's answer, Fangzheng smiled and patted her little head.
"Da da da da!!"
At that moment, the sky was gradually turning dark, but the loud music was getting louder. Soon, accompanied by the flashing lights, Fangzheng saw a parade moving down the street. The tourists surrounded the floats excitedly, whistling as they watched the dancing Samba girls on the floats.
