Fang Ning pushed all the trifling matters to Zheng Dao and Sir System, and went back to his busy schedule to secretly play games.
However, he did not stay idle for long before something happened that made him furious. He almost smashed his newly bought mechanical keyboard.
At this moment, he was looking at the tragic scene below him through the System View.
It was an ordinary mountain village in China, located in a mountain range. There was only a long, rugged mountain road that was connected to a dilapidated road outside.
One could imagine how remote and backward this place was due to the inaccessibility of transportation.
That was the truth. The low-rise adobe houses and the bumpy dirt road made it look like a village from the last century.
However, it was a place that stood aloof from worldly affairs that suffered an undeserved disaster.
The entire village was silent. There were no sounds of dogs barking or roosters crowing.
On the contrary, there was a strong smell of blood coming from the dilapidated and low-rise courtyards.
There were old people, women, a small number of adults, and children who stayed behind … All of them were facing the sky. On their foreheads, there were small holes that were faintly visible. It was a horrifying and strange sight.
"Damn it …" He clenched his fist and said in a low voice, "Who did this?"
"It should be that Brain-Devouring Parasite. I saw it appear here on the System Map, so I immediately teleported here. I didn't expect it to escape again," Sir System said in a low voice.
"It's all my fault. If I wasn't so playful, maybe they wouldn't have died so tragically …" Fang Ning hugged his head, no longer in the mood to play.
In fact, such tragedies had happened repeatedly since the beginning of the Era of Vitality.
It was the same when the Insect Devil wreaked havoc. It was even more tragic than this. Countless mutated Giant Yellowjackets wreaked havoc in the southern mountains and destroyed many villages.
However, those things basically had nothing to do with him. He was just a spectator. By the time Vigilante A arrived, the tragedy had already happened. All he had to do was to kill the culprit.
If he saw this scene from the news on the Internet, he would only lament and make a few comments like a normal bystander.
After that, he would still do what he was supposed to do. After all, he was not a saint …
But now, he felt that if he worked a little harder, he might be able to prevent this tragedy from happening.
"If, if I had enough combat experience, I could cooperate with you to release the Divine and Earthly Monuments in time and seal that space. Maybe this culprit wouldn't have escaped …" Fang Ning held his head and murmured.
Just then, the voice of a macaw rang in his ear.
"Boss, this has nothing to do with you. Brother Frog and I have just sealed the world. It consumes a lot of energy, so you can't use it for a while. "
The Earthly Monument parrot's words made Fang Ning feel less guilty, which made him feel grateful.
He would remember anyone who spoke up for him. He immediately decided that he would treat these two Artifact Spirits well in the future. He couldn't simply treat them as tools.
They were born of the Heavenly Dao, so their intelligence was far superior to most humans.
Fang Ning was not a sentimental person. He had followed Sir System everywhere and had seen too many tragic scenes. Dead people were a common sight.
It could be said that after the Era of Vitality, it would be abnormal if there were no unnatural deaths …
Of course, Vigilante A was not omnipotent. The fact that he could nip most of the disaster factors in the bud had already shocked many people.
Since this was not his fault, he naturally recovered quickly.
"That detestable Ling Yunzi, he's really ruthless. He's pressuring us!" Fang Ning immediately guessed the truth after he recovered from the pain.
After Fang Ning finished speaking, he quickly walked into the Draconic Penitentiary.
Anderson was already waiting at the side. When he entered, he immediately welcomed him.
"Follow me to the education room. I want to see how you teach Ling Yunzi a lesson." Fang Ning said hatefully.
Although it wasn't his fault, he was still suppressing his anger in his heart.
Ever since the creation of the flying sword, its mobility had greatly increased. The name of the Pharos of the East had spread all over the world. Due to the start of the Era of Vitality, there were fewer and fewer tragic incidents where innocent people were killed.
Now that Sir System had learned the Art of Shifting, many powerful enemies could not escape.
However, the scene today had slapped him hard in the face.
This made him understand once again the saying, "As the righteous rises one foot, the evil rises ten. It's easy to catch a thief from a thousand miles away, but difficult to guard against a thief for a thousand days".
Although most people did not know that he was Vigilante A, there were still people who knew. They believed that that person was probably sneering in the dark.
Fang Ning knew very well that he was born in trouble and died in peace.
If he was in adversity, he would be able to survive. However, if he was in prosperity, he would slowly be corrupted and become lazy and procrastinating …
There were actually many people like this. Li Cunxu, the founder of the Later Tang Dynasty, was a typical example. Ouyang Wenzheng had even written an article specifically about this.
"Worry and labor can prosper a country, but idleness can lead to death. This is a natural principle." Fang Ning muttered to himself. Then, he said solemnly, "Sir, you have to work hard in the future. Don't be idleness. Don't think that you've achieved great success and the world is set in stone. Don't stop trying to improve."
"Uh …" Sir System was inexplicably hit with a brick. He said gloomily, "Shouldn't you be saying this to yourself?"
"My body is already seized by you. Of course I have to say it to you." Fang Ning said firmly.
"…" Sir System was speechless. After a while, he said, "Then you don't have to say it. I definitely won't be idleness. Because leveling up and becoming stronger is the whole meaning of my existence. It's where my joy lies. I'm originally an evolution of a game … When have I ever stopped trying to improve? "
"That's good." Fang Ning was very pleased.
As they conversed, he brought Anderson to the education room.
The spacious education room was more than a thousand square meters.
Eighty-one types of educational tools were lined up on both sides of the classroom.
Clamps, iron whips, soldering irons, braziers … They shone coldly and gave off an awe-inspiring aura. They looked ordinary, but in fact, each of them was the nemesis of souls.
Once one entered this door, one's soul would be fearful. After suffering once, everyone wanted to turn over a new leaf.
However, there were still a few stubborn ones. After all, there were always stubborn people in the world who could not be educated. For example, the four-headed snake monster Aachman and Ling Yunzi.
Fang Ning glanced around and was very satisfied. It was obvious that this place was carefully maintained. Every teaching tool was brand new.
He then snapped his fingers.
After a while, Ling Yunzi appeared in the middle of the education room. He was seen meditating with his eyes half-closed.
Fang Ning was very satisfied. The System was a little silly, but it was hardworking enough and improved rapidly.
At this moment, Ling Yunzi seemed to have noticed that there were people around him. He had already opened his eyes.
"Hehe, you're here again? Looks like my Brain-Devouring Parasite isn't easy to deal with, is it? "A smile flashed across his face. He looked just like a demon.
"You old servant, why are your thoughts so twisted? Do you think you're worthy of being a cultivator? "Although Fang Ning knew that it was useless, he still reprimanded him subconsciously.
"Haha, the Great Way is above. There are three thousand unorthodox schools. Who told you that Dao can't kill? So what if it's a human? Since humans can kill, they can be killed. Cut the crap. Your torture tools are just child's play in my eyes. "Ling Yunzi sneered.
"Stubborn fool!" Fang Ning was so angry that he gritted his teeth. He then said to Anderson, "Lil Anzi, teach him a lesson. Let him know what love and justice are!"
"Yes, sir." Anderson pointed to a corner of the room. An iron whip immediately floated up and came before Ling Yunzi.
…
Ling Yunzi was calm. Eighty-one educational methods did not seem to work on him at all.
"I'm very ashamed, sir. I'm afraid this old thief has long cultivated his soul to the Diamond Realm. Nothing can hurt him. These educational methods won't work. "Anderson said with a face full of shame.
After all, his cultivation base was still too low. It was difficult to deal with the methods of these powerhouses.
"Haha, that's all. Your methods are far from what I know." Ling Yunzi shook his head.
"Damn it. Aren't you afraid that I'll destroy your soul?!" Fang Ning said fiercely.
"Destroying it would be such a waste. It'd be better to make it into a treasure." Sir System quickly extinguished Fang Ning's anger.
"Hey, don't affect my emotions." Fang Ning was speechless.
"Haha, you can't destroy it. I still have a backup. I can resurrect after death. What can you do to me? Let me tell you one more thing. If the parasite absorbs enough nutrients, it can reproduce again after three months. Hahaha! "
At this moment, he suddenly heard a "bang". His laughter stopped abruptly.
Ling Yunzi fell to the ground as if he had suffered a heavy blow.
Then, the "bang bang" sound continued to be heard from his body.
At first, he acted as if nothing had happened. His expression did not change. Then, a trace of pain appeared. Then, he screamed in pain.
"This is impossible. My soul is strong and indestructible. What method did you use to make me feel so much pain?"
"Hmph, now you know pain? Those who were killed by you will only feel more pain than you! "Fang Ning said fiercely.
He did not have the hobby of watching people being educated. He already knew the whole story. After saying that, he left the education room alone under Anderson's admiring gaze.
After he came out, he immediately said with relief, "Sir System, I've always wronged you. It turns out that you're still on my side when it comes to critical moments. You actually took the initiative to stand up for me. Thank you so much.
"Actually, I should've thought of letting you do it. The Divine and Earthly Monuments are Heavenly Axiom Treasures. They're extremely sturdy, but you still beat them up. They're in so much pain that they still hate you. No matter how powerful Ling Yunzi's soul is, it's impossible for it to compare to them. "
"What are you talking about? I don't understand. I just want to see what his so-called Vajra soul is made of. I want to see what kind of treasure it can be made into in the future. When did I say I wanted to stand up for you? Besides, what does your anger have to do with me? I'm not like you humans. I won't get angry. "Sir System was confused.
"Very well." Fang Ning was stunned. After a while, he said, "I wanted to thank you, but I was thinking too highly of myself. In that case, there's no reason for me to thank you."
"Uh … Actually, I was just filled with righteous indignation. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I took the initiative to teach that old man a lesson. Look at how good I am to you. Aren't you touched? "Sir System quickly said.
"It's too late. I'm not touched anymore." Fang Ning walked out of the Draconic Penitentiary.
