Fang Zheng finally discovered why everyone likes to be a decent person.
As long as you shout the slogan, you will find that everything you do is right.
Originally, Fang Zheng was a little hesitant about whether to take this strange magic item, but now, after seeing the main world mission given to him by the goddess sister, he immediately made up his mind. That's right, he is a paladin blessed by the gods. What's the big deal about killing a person and taking a treasure? All of this is to liberate these suffering souls, break the evil devil's conspiracy, for this world!
Oh, Fang Zheng suddenly felt that if he didn't take this damn thing away, he would be sorry for the people, the party, and the new socialist China... As a young man who was born in a new society and grew up under the red flag, how could he stop moving forward for such a small matter?
It was not difficult for Fang Zheng to find the magic item. Or perhaps the mastermind behind everything had never thought that someone could break through the barrier and come to the other world without anyone noticing. Therefore, it did not take Fang Zheng much effort to find the magic item - the thing was floating directly in the center of the square.
"Is that a...scepter?"
With his extraordinary vision, Fang Zheng recognized at a glance that the thing floating in the center of the square was a black scepter that was about the length of his forearm. Its shape looked very unique, and there was a big eye embedded on the top. At this moment, the eye was wide open, looking at the world in front of it. For some reason, Fang Zheng always 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 this is really generous..."
While muttering, Fang Zheng took out his detector and put it on, then locked onto the strange scepter again and began to detect. Sure enough, the system's products were top-notch. The moment Fang Zheng looked at the scepter, the detector in front of him made a "beep" sound, and then a line of information immediately appeared in front of Fang Zheng.
[Artifact: Eye of All Things]
[Level: Secondary Artifact]
[Effect: The world of all things is full of illusions and fog, truth and lies are indistinguishable, only the self is the eternal and unchanging existence in the multiverse (you can summon the time mirror of the designated target from the void to operate, the strength of the mirror itself is half of the target object, and you cannot specify a target with strength higher than demigod)]
This thing... is quite interesting...
Looking at the information that appeared in front of him, Fang Zheng touched his chin. The identification result of this item was similar to the description of the little angel Nymph. However, what Fang Zheng did not expect was that this thing actually summoned a plane mirror from the time level, rather than a simple parallel world... But that's right, even parallel worlds have theoretical support.
Eh? That's not right!
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng suddenly shuddered. According to the description of this scepter, it uses the power of time? !
Oh my god, isn't this perfect for me?
At present, Fang Zheng's development of the ability of [Time Manipulation] is only at the most superficial level. At most, he can stop time or use the future vision to pretend to be a charlatan. But Fang Zheng has not yet developed any other uses for time.
And now, he actually discovered here a magical artifact that can create illusions based on the ability of time?
Such a good thing, I must take it back and study it carefully!
Fang Zheng had never thought that time ability could be used to create illusions! No, it should be said that from everything he had experienced, what he had seen before were not illusions, but projections of this world "located in other different time planes". This could also explain why his prophecy spells were so difficult to see through, because these were not completely illusory.
Fang Zhengzheng firmly believed that if he could get this scepter, then his development of time abilities might be taken to a higher level!
So, the next question is...how to get it?
Fang Zheng carefully scanned the surroundings. The entire square was empty except for the occasional undead creatures passing by. The scepter was floating there without any change. It felt like he could just run over and reach out to grab it. But the more this happened, the more cautious Fang Zheng became. In all the games in the world, something would go wrong when the protagonist tried to get the key equipment. Either the boss would ambush them or a trap would be triggered. He was an expert at this kind of planning. It would be a joke if he could still be deceived.
Although Fang Zheng still didn't know who was behind this, since the goddess had already issued the mission, it was obvious that the mastermind behind this was probably related to the group of people who had tried to sneak across the dark swamp before. Since the other party had deliberately built a secret underground hive here, they would definitely have installed various safeguards.
Umbrella created the T virus and also had laser channels.
"True Knowledge!"
To be on the safe side, Fang Zheng cast another True Seeing spell on himself. Although the scepter was definitely real, who knew whether the things next to it were real? What if this square was fake and he sank to the bottom of the sea as soon as he stepped in?
Fortunately, with the True Seeing Technique, Fang Zheng was sure that there was no illusion here. Both the scepter and the square next to it were real. However, another question that puzzled him was that, logically speaking, there should be tens of thousands of undead creatures here, so where were these undead creatures?
However, Fang Zheng's question was answered very quickly.
"…These guys are building a ship?"
Looking at the bright and shining scene on the dock in the distance, which was almost like a city that never sleeps, Fang Zheng was also a little stunned for a moment. Of course, he could feel that the life reaction there was about to break through the sky. To be honest, Fang Zheng really didn't recognize what kind of place it was at first, because when they came, there was only a pile of rubbish left. If it wasn't for Captain Fox's words, Fang Zheng really couldn't see what those things had to do with ship repair and shipbuilding.
But now, Fang Zheng finally saw it clearly.
On the dock, huge warships were neatly arranged. From time to time, skeletons could be seen climbing up and down, hammering and banging on them. But what Fang Zheng couldn't understand was that although there were an astonishing number of these ships, more than a hundred of them, they looked extremely shabby, and each one was more broken than the other. Not only were there big holes everywhere on the hull, but even the sails were basically just a few strips of cloth. This made Fang Zheng very curious. How did these undead creatures repair the ships over the years?
In other words, the whole fucking port is on fire, what are you going to use to repair the ship?
Forget it, none of this matters, let’s get to work first.
Looking at the task prompt in front of him, Fang Zheng put away his curiosity. The main task was very clear. All he had to do was to crack this half-plane. And Nymph also told him that the magic item - oh, that is, the Eye of All Things was used to support and isolate these two planes. So that means that as long as Fang Zheng followed his original goal and directly took away the scepter, the barrier between the two planes would disappear and then begin to merge. After losing the barrier protection, those wronged souls would be liberated, and his main world task would be completed... Well, this is simple.
"Tilia, you stay here to take charge. I'll go and try to get the scepter directly."
Although according to reason, Fang Zheng could have directly sent Tilia to explore the way, but considering that she called him elder brother, Fang Zheng naturally went straight to it. Fortunately, the spell faction he studied concurrently included the protection department, so Fang Zheng immediately cast a bunch of protective spells on himself. From spell nullification barrier to excellent resistance, from high-level magic transmission alarm to stone skin, basically all physical elemental curses and water protection barriers were used. Then Fang Zheng looked around, and then jumped out of the ruins in a flash, landing steadily on the ground.
Of course, if possible, the safest option for Fang Zheng would be future vision, but for some reason, when Fang Zheng used future vision to look at the scepter, he could not see what would happen to him next. The prophecy spell also yielded no results, so Fang Zheng had no choice but to bite the bullet.
Then, Fang Zheng raised his head and looked forward. The next moment, his figure disappeared in an instant, and then he appeared in front of the scepter floating in the sky. Then, Fang Zheng stretched out his right hand and grabbed the scepter!
And then...he was hung there.
What the hell?
Holding the scepter in one hand, Fang Zheng looked at the ground beneath his feet in surprise. He had originally prepared himself mentally for things like guardian monsters and triggered traps, but Fang Zheng never thought that he would end up like this.
He couldn't even take the damn scepter away?
