Of course, Fang Zheng couldn't go around the world to stop the actions of the Church of the Day of Destruction. Firstly, it would take too much time. Secondly, if you stop one incident, there would be another one. Not only might you fail, but you might even alert the enemy.
And Fang Zheng also has his own way.
Do you know how the protagonist of the game rebirth style in online novels is played?
People know which is the hidden mission, which is the hidden character, and how the plot will be advanced, so they can always find the best way and push forward all the way.
Although this main world is not a game, Fang Zheng has "The Whispering Volume". Even if he doesn't know the hidden plots and hidden tasks, at least he knows who the hidden characters are, right?
Coincidentally, according to the records of the Whispering Book, the top leaders of the Church of the Day of Destruction will meet in the Silver City of the Kingdom of Wealth to perform a very important ceremony. Due to the importance of this ceremony, all eight members of the "Sun Destruction Council" within the Church of the Day of Destruction will attend.
As long as Fang Zheng can catch these eight bastards in one fell swoop, even if the Church of the Day of Destruction is not completely destroyed, it will be mostly collapsed. It is possible that the entire Church of the Day of Destruction will be caught in a vortex of power struggles, and their previous plans will naturally not be implemented.
This is exactly a replica of the strategy of besieging Wei to save Zhao.
Although Fang Zheng had made a decision, he couldn't just go there. After all, even the wisest man can make mistakes. Although he could continue to assist Hu Tao and Kuang San as a mage, since the Day of Destruction Church had a plan against him, they would definitely know something about his appearance and experience. Given the sensitivity of those psychopaths, if they noticed something wrong, it might cause trouble.
But Fang Zheng is not completely without a solution to this problem... although it will require him to make some sacrifices.
But for the Tiandao Palace and for my own little cutie, what sacrifice is worth it?
Everything is for order and justice!
"…We are going to Silver City?"
Looking at the letter in her hand, Kurumi couldn't help but reveal an expression of surprise. She blinked and then looked at Kurumi in front of her.
"Is there any mission?"
"That's about right. The situation is more urgent this time, so we have to rush to Silver City as soon as possible."
"That's no problem..."
In response to Kurumi's answer, Kurumi nodded, then she looked at the petite figure with red hair and twin ponytails beside Kurumi in confusion.
"But……"
"Hello, Kurumi. It's our first meeting. Thank you for your guidance. My name is Red Ponytail, and you can just call me Xiaohong."
Facing Hu Tao's puzzled look, Fang Zheng - no, Red Ponytail raised his hand and waved it with a smile, and Hu Tao nodded.
"Ah, hello..."
Hearing Red Ponytail's answer, Kurumi nodded in response.
"Xiaohong, were you also brought back from another world by Brother Fang Zheng?"
"Yes, I was also brought back by Mr. Fang Zheng. Thank you for your guidance."
Completely ignoring the sly look from Kurumi who was standing next to her, Red Ponytail (Fang Zheng) grinned as she stretched out her hand to shake hands with Kurumi.
That’s right, this is the method Fang Zheng came up with to hide his identity - transformation!!
After all, if it was Fang Zheng himself, whether he appeared as a warrior or a wizard, it would easily arouse the suspicion of the Church of the Day of Destruction. In this case, then why not just transform myself into a 14-year-old magical girl with a red ponytail! I wonder what you, the Church of the Day of Destruction, can do to me!
Damn it, the Church of the Day of Destruction actually asked me to make such a big sacrifice.
While smiling and shaking hands with Hu Tao, Fang Zheng was cursing in his heart.
My sacrifice cannot be in vain. Watch me. After I capture those bastard high-ups of the Day of Destruction, I will tie them up one by one, and then use a red-hot dagger to split their chickens directly in the middle. Then I will skewer them with toothpicks, sprinkle them with cumin, salt and chili powder, roast them over the fire, and then cut them into pieces and force them to eat them themselves!
But... Walnut's changes are really huge.
Looking at Hu Tao in front of him, Fang Zheng couldn't help but sigh inwardly. When she first arrived here, Hu Tao was still a very green newcomer, but now she is wearing a warrior's leather armor, and her whole body exudes the spirit of a veteran who has experienced hundreds of battles.
No, it should be said that she is a veteran who has experienced many battles. According to Kurumi's report, Hu Tao has completed many commissions during this period of time, from expelling wolf packs to destroying the undead. It can be said that Hu Tao has completely grown up during this period of time.
"We need an opportunity to leave here."
Kurumi interrupted at the right time, and Kurumi nodded.
"I understand that it's hard to accept commissions recently, but I should be able to find a commission to Silver City if I ask."
Hmm... the reaction was indeed quick.
Seeing that Hu Tao understood what Kuang San meant in a blink of an eye, Fang Zheng also nodded. Generally speaking, mercenaries rarely go far away without taking missions. Although Kuang San didn't tell Hu Tao in detail what they were going to do, Hu Tao obviously understood that they needed a reason and excuse to leave this city and go to Silver City.
"Come on, I'll take you to the Mercenary Association."
While smiling and patting Red Ponytail's shoulder, Walnut turned and walked towards the Mercenary Association.
When Hu Tao entered the Mercenary Association, their appearance immediately attracted the attention of the mercenaries who were doing nothing in the hall. Soon, a burly man raised his wine glass and shook it at Hu Tao with a smile.
"Hey, isn't this our Shovel Princess? Are you here to take on another commission?"
"Yeah, let's see if there's any business lately."
"You and Miss Kuang have taken almost all the jobs, so there is no room for us."
Looking at the mercenaries who came over and greeted Kurumi, Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows, then he moved closer to Kurumi and asked in a low voice.
"It seems like Kurumi is very popular."
"Of course. After all, she has completed quite a few missions and also accepted many dangerous missions. More importantly..."
"What is it?"
"She is probably the only one who fights with a shovel and enchants it."
“That’s true…”
Facing Kuang San's answer, Fang Zheng nodded. From the outside, the musket used by Kuang San did not exceed the cognition of this world, and he was currently carrying a long sword on his back as a weapon, which also looked normal. In fact... most of the mercenaries' weapons were normal, and only a few of them would use various strange weapons to fight.
And Walnut is obviously one of them.
Looking at the expression on Fang Zheng's face, Kuang San just chuckled.
"You seem really relieved. Aren't you afraid that someone here will snatch Walnut away?"
"Is there?"
Hearing this, Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment, while Kuang San chuckled and raised a finger to her lips.
"Of course, there's a clerk at the counter who has a crush on Kurumi. Who knows, maybe he'll snatch her away from her someday."
"Oh? I want to see who is so brave."
Hearing Kuang San's answer, Fang Zheng suddenly became curious. She moved forward and looked at Hu Tao, only to see that Hu Tao happened to come to the counter at this time. Soon, a girl who looked about the same age as her, wearing a uniform and with long flaxen hair, immediately showed a happy smile after seeing Hu Tao, and then ran over in two steps.
"Ah, Miss Nutella, you're here!"
"I'm here. Do you have any interesting commissions recently?"
"Please wait for me to look for it. The latest batch of commissions has not been processed yet, but if you want, Miss Walnut, I can prepare it now!"
After saying this, the flaxen-haired girl blushed, turned excitedly away from the counter and entered the room.
Fang Zheng: “……???”
