"It seems that you are more capable than I thought."

When Fang Zheng returned to the top of the Zhenzai Society's tower, he happened to see Shana, Majonglinduo and Xiu Denan confronting each other, but the expressions of both sides were completely different. Shana had a relaxed smile on her face, while Xiu Denan's face was livid. Without asking, one could tell that he must have suffered a great loss at the hands of the two.

"Nanoka is here too... Well, the little girl really lived up to my expectations."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng glanced at a distance, where he could see Nanoka driving a strange flying machine to fight against the Red World followers who were guarding the Zhenzai Society. Of course, in addition to her, Fang Zheng also saw Chiara, who he had met once before at the airport, and several other Fire Mist Warriors. It was obvious that they took advantage of the time when the Four Gods of the Earth were restraining the Fire Mist Warriors' power to launch a surprise attack and rush in, and then let others be responsible for restraining the Red World King guarding the Zhenzai Society, while Shana and Majonglinduo took the opportunity to come and complete their mission...

"Alliance leader, I'm so sorry that I couldn't stop them..."

Xiu Denan's face was livid at the moment, and he was extremely angry. He had never thought that he would be played like this by two fire mist warriors. Although he seemed to have little respect for Fang Zheng, he was one of the Three Pillars after all, and naturally valued the completion of Yu Ming. When he was surrounded by Ma Qionglin, the other party suddenly shot a law into the World Egg. Although it did not hurt Hecate again as Xiu Denan worried, these fire mist warriors had caused damage to Yu Ming anyway, which made Xiu Denan too embarrassed to see Fang Zheng for a while.

After all, he had just assured Fang Zheng that there would be absolutely no problem.

“Fang Zheng…”

Looking at Fang Zheng who appeared in front of her, Shana's mood was quite complicated, but thinking of her mission, Shana still tightly gripped the weapon in her hand and looked at Fang Zheng.

"We have already put a law into the World Egg, which prohibits the transformation and eating of humans! We have no intention of preventing the new world, but... we will never allow a new world where the Red World's followers can run wild!"

At the same time, Marjorine continued.

"Moreover, we have also penetrated your backup system with the same principles. Now there is nothing you can do!"

"very good."

But to Shana's surprise, Fang Zheng seemed very calm. He clapped his hands gently and looked at Shana with satisfaction.

"As my student, you have learned to look at problems rationally and dialectically, but... your brain is not flexible enough."

"……What's the meaning?"

Hearing this, Shana and Ma Qionglin were both stunned, and then a bad premonition emerged from the depths of their hearts. Fang Zheng, on the other hand, looked at the two of them leisurely, and then the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

"You should know that the initial conflict between the Masquerade and I was that the Masquerade wanted the 'Zero Hour Lost Child' in my body. So do you know what the Masquerade wanted the Zero Hour Lost Child to do?"

"this……"

Hearing this, Shana was stunned. She had indeed never thought about this question.

"The essence of Zero Hour Lost is the negation of degradation and change, while its replenishment and consumption comes from the resilience of repairing distortions."

Fang Zheng smiled slightly and then spread out his hands.

"Why do you think I would personally take action against the Four Gods of the Earth? I do dislike those bastards, but do you really think I would just leave here without any preparation?"

“…”

"Well, let me ask you one more question."

Looking at Shana and Marjorie, whose expressions gradually became serious, Fang Zheng extended a finger.

"If an operating system is damaged or infected due to human error, how should it be handled? Reinstalling the system is certainly a good option, but I have a better way, which is... one-click restoration."

"One-click restore... Wait, Fang Zheng, what you mean is...!"

Hearing this, Shana and Alastor were suddenly shocked. If they didn't know what Fang Zheng wanted to say before, now they already understood what he meant!

Because Fang Zheng said it very clearly, one of the essences of Zero Hour Lost is the "negation" of degradation and consumption!

In other words, it is not a treasure that can infinitely restore the power of existence as many Fire Mist Warriors and Crimson World disciples think. On the contrary, the Zero Hour Lost has denied the consumption of this day, so the illusion of "recovery" occurs.

But if that's the case...

After thinking clearly about the situation at hand, Shana and others broke out in cold sweats.

It will be midnight soon, and when the Zero Hour Lost Machine is activated, it will negate and erase all the "deterioration" and "modification" that have taken effect on it during this day, which means... their efforts are in vain!

"Then, then why did you..."

After figuring this out, Shana's face suddenly turned ugly. She finally understood that everything she and others had done was not a threat to Fang Zheng at all! Then why did he give her the remaining chapters of the Great Fate Poem and let her do all this?

"I told you I'd give you a chance."

Looking at the girl in front of him, Fang Zheng shook his head slightly, then he looked at Shana again.

"Shana, you invited the Four Gods of the Earth to come here to kill those Red World followers who ate humans and make them feel the fear of being punished for eating humans?"

"This... is correct..."

"This idiotic idea must have come from Alastor."

Fang Zheng glanced at the necklace on Shana's chest with disdain, and Shana opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this?"

Of course Alastor couldn't stand it at this time. Fang Zheng called him mentally retarded. If he didn't come out to refute it, how could he survive?

"Of course there are problems. I really doubt that you Red World Demon Gods don't need to take an examination to be in office? Any cat or dog can be a demon god?"

Fang Zheng spread his hands and stared at Alastor coldly.

"Killing the Red World Disciples will make them feel scared? Do you treat the Red World Disciples as wild animals? Let them know that humans are powerful and will they avoid humans? Ha, no wonder the Fire Mist Warriors and the Red World Disciples have been fighting for three thousand years and can't stop. You want to solve the problem like this? It's just a dream to spend another three thousand years. The Red World Disciples are not wild wolves and dogs. They will abandon their armor and flee for their lives after being killed by a few of you Fire Mist Warriors. The more you press them step by step, the more power they need to arm themselves against you. What is order? Order is the guarantee of stability, and stability means rewards and punishments. Obeying the order can get rewards, and breaking the order will get punishments. Look, since I issued an imperial decree requiring the Red World Disciples not to eat humans anymore, otherwise they will lose the qualification to go to the new world and be executed on the spot, how many Red World Disciples dare to eat people under my nose? Now that the fighting is so fierce below, how many Red World Disciples choose to continue to eat humans?"

"this……"

Facing Fang Zheng's question, Alastor was indeed speechless. Facts speak louder than words. They had fought all the way here, and those Red World disciples and Red World kings, no matter how strong or weak they were, or whether they had the advantage or not, basically did not eat humans like before to increase their own existence and fight.

On the other hand, as for the Fire Mist Warriors and the Four Gods of the Earth... forget it, they have already been crushed into slag by Fang Zheng.

"I'm giving you a chance, and I'm also giving humanity a chance."

Having said this, Fang Zheng looked at Shana again.

"You should know that the power of the Creator God can do nothing without the wishes of the Crimson World People... In my opinion, these Crimson World People have lived in this world for so many years that they have long been attracted by human culture and wisdom. It's just that they have to devour humans for the sake of survival. And now, I give everyone a chance to choose..."

"You mean, the Red World people will agree with this law that forbids eating humans?"

Hearing this, Alastor couldn't help but reveal a surprised tone. He certainly understood what Fang Zheng meant. If the Red World followers agreed with the law they broke into, then this law would remain, but if the Red World followers disagreed, then this law would naturally be erased.

"Of course, they have coexisted with humans for three thousand years. Today's humans are no longer the barbarians who ate raw meat and drank blood three thousand years ago. And the Red World's followers have obviously changed their views on humans. So now... I'm going to bet on this possibility."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng raised his right hand.

"When the time comes, let's see who made the right choice."

At the same time, the pointer of the zero-hour dial in Fang Zheng's hand once again pointed to zero.

"Sacrifice to the foundation and create..."
