After that, Nymph also rushed over with others, and the cruel scene in front of them also shocked the girls. Although Charmander's time reversal can heal the wounds of the living, it cannot bring the dead back to life. Therefore, those elves who died because of the Goblin's atrocities naturally could not live again.

Since the girls from his team had arrived, Fang Zheng naturally handed the elves over to them to take care of. After all, the elves were still naked, and even if he, a man, wanted to help, he didn't know where to start. It would be better to leave it to the girls, while Fang Zheng began to search the entire cave, trying to find some clues or something.

But unfortunately, after working for a long time, Fang Zheng still found nothing in the cave. This is normal. Goblins are such a mentally retarded race that can't even figure out that one plus one equals two. Who would be stupid enough to give them orders through letters!

In the entire cave, besides the corpses of the goblins, there were also some spoils and leftover bones that they had stripped off from the elves or other victims... In the end, Fang Zheng returned empty-handed.

"Did you find anything, Mr. Fang Zheng?"

When Fang Zheng walked out of the cave, Fina hurried forward and asked, but Fang Zheng shook his head.

"There are only some junk and the elves' things. I didn't find anything useful."

Having said that, Fang Zheng glanced at Nymph, and noticing Fang Zheng's gaze, Nymph closed her eyes and sensed her surroundings, then shook her head slightly at Fang Zheng.

There is nothing nearby.

After getting Nymph's answer, Fang Zheng nodded. He was not a fool. After learning from the elf girl that there was another mastermind behind these goblins, he asked Nymph to turn on the full-band radar search mode to prevent the black shadow from turning around and killing them by surprise. But now it seems that this problem does not need to be worried for the time being.

So the next question is, what exactly is that black shadow.

To be honest, Fang Zheng is not completely clueless about this.

According to the elf girl, they fainted suddenly after seeing the black shadow. In the illusion department, there are several high-level spells that can achieve this effect, but Fang Zheng gave up illusion because he specialized in prophecy, so he couldn't judge for the time being. But if he had to judge, then Fang Zheng would be more inclined to another result.

According to the elf girls, they felt a great, almost uncontrollable fear before they fainted. In this situation, in addition to magic, there is only one way in Fang Zheng's memory that can do it. In fact, even Fang Zheng himself can do it.

Dragon power.

As a young dragon, if Fang Zheng used his full dragon power in front of those mortals in the Fire Dragon World, they would also have the same symptoms as the elves, and would faint or even have a mental breakdown due to excessive fear. But the problem is that it is a world without any magic, and those people are just ordinary mortals. The elves in the main world have better magic resistance than humans. Although they are not as immune to magic as the dwarves, they are not something that ordinary dragon power can deal with.

It can make elves with high magic resistance fall into coma before even a single encounter. If the opponent is really a dragon, then it is definitely not an ordinary dragon, and it may not even be an adult dragon, but...

Never mind. There's no point in thinking about this now.

Fang Zheng shook his head and put aside the thought in his mind. He had not seen the dragons in this world. Although he had learned some stories about them from the book in the White Tower, they were just records. In fact, dragons in the main world rarely appeared in front of mortals. They would occasionally transform into human form and act with adventurers, or quietly observe the rise and fall of a country. Of course, there were also some evil dragons that would come out and faithfully play the roles they were supposed to play...

"How are the elves doing?"

"They are very tired and have suffered a great mental blow. I have cast a spell to calm their minds. At least... at least they can have a good rest for a while."

Speaking of this, Fina looked a little depressed. Although everything had been settled by Fang Zheng when they arrived, these girls were not fools. Just by looking at the appearance of the elves and the miserable state of the dead elves, they could guess what happened here.

"Also, I discovered something very strange... The magic power in these elves... seems..."

At this point, Fina seemed a little unsure of how to explain.

"It seems... all of it has been used up, as if they collectively released a huge spell. Now they are so exhausted, half of which is due to excessive consumption of magic power. But I asked the elf lady, and she was very sure that she and others had not released any spells today."

"Oh? There is such a thing?"

Hearing this, Fang Zheng frowned, but then he didn't say much.

"Anyway, let's go check it out."

At this moment, the elves had been moved out of the cave by the girls. With the help of Fina and others, the elves changed into ordinary robes and boots, which were also the spare items that the girls brought when going out. Fortunately, the elves' bodies are thinner than humans, so these clothes can still be worn.

And now, these elves are leaning against the tree trunks, falling into a quiet sleep.

There were a few other elves covered in white cloth, placed on the other side of the river. They were the ones brutally killed by the goblins. At the moment, Fang Zheng saw three elf girls, one big and two small, who he had rescued from the cave, kneeling in front of the bodies and praying in a low voice. He could even faintly hear their crying.

"I think I can understand their sadness."

Fina held the scepter in her hand and stood quietly beside Fang Zheng, watching the scene not far away with complicated eyes.

"I've had similar experiences. It was just an ordinary patrol. I said goodbye to my friends as usual and did my job as usual, but suddenly I was separated from my loved ones... In comparison, it was easier to accept death on the battlefield with the cultists. After all, at that time, everyone was mentally prepared for it. But now..."

Fina didn't continue, but Fang Zheng understood what she meant. It's like in modern times, if you were killed by a stray bullet on a chaotic battlefield, it wouldn't be surprising at all, but if you went out to buy groceries and accidentally got involved in a car accident on your way back, it would be difficult for your relatives and friends to accept this fact.

"Why?"

At this moment, Katie's voice came from the side. Although she was hiding her figure as usual, Fang Zheng and Fina could hear the sadness and doubt in Katie's tone.

"Why are those evil monsters allowed to survive in this world? Isn't the Goddess of Order a good god? Why would she allow such monsters to survive in an orderly world?"

"this……"

Facing Katie's question, Fina opened her mouth, but in the end she said nothing. Instead, Fang Zheng narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance.

"Order has no distinction between good and evil. In fact, nothing is destined to do what it does when it is born. Angels and demons are both part of order, and so are we humans, but there are also good and bad people among humans. Wolves are cunning, insidious and cruel animals, and to rabbits, they are no different from demons. The same is true for these goblins. They are indeed evil and as annoying as rats in the gutter, but they are also part of this world after all..."

"Then...how do we distinguish between good and bad?"

“It’s very simple.”

Facing Katie's question, Fang Zheng's mouth curled up slightly.

"That depends on your choice."

"My own...choice?"

"That's right, just like humans, no one stipulates that humans are born into the Order camp. You can be a good person, or you can be a villain. You can be a killer who kills people without a trace, or you can be a priest who saves the world. You can be greedy and lustful, or you can work hard to improve yourself. You can choose to fight for Order, or learn from those cultists and become a follower of Chaos. These are all your own choices and decisions. Order does not bind your will. Even if you are born the same and have the same foundation, there will be different results."

Having said this, Fang Zheng spread out his hands.

"The same goes for the goblins. They chose this path, so they are destined to be destroyed one day, just like what I did. I also chose this path, so I killed these goblins and saved the victims. If I choose to be a selfish person, I can just pretend that I didn't see anything, so as to avoid trouble and turn around and leave without caring about the lives of these elves. They may be tortured to death by these goblins, or they may be saved by their companions. These are all choices, yours, mine, and everyone's choices. This is life."

After hearing Fang Zheng's words, Katie fell into silence, and Fina also tightly grasped the scepter. Then she raised her head and looked at Fang Zheng.

There was a firm will in those eyes.

"So, Mr. Fang Zheng, what if you make the wrong choice?"

"There are no wrong choices in this world. Some people's dream is to save the world, while others just want to watch the world burn. Right or wrong is not the point. What others think is right may not be what you think. Similarly, what you think is right may be meaningless to others."

Facing Fina's question, Fang Zheng shrugged.

"The point is, they have to live with the consequences of their choices, it's as simple as that."
