With the Chaos Knight's retreat, the battle came to a temporary end. Although Fang Zheng was a little unhappy that the Chaos Knight was scared away by his own little girls, the result was good and everything was fine... He was too lazy to complain anymore.
The battle at Twilight Frontier was not over yet, so Fang Zheng quickly gathered his troops and started to build a fortress on the spot. He almost guessed the true identity of the Chaos Knight. Since the other party took the initiative to come to him, it meant that the Knights he led should be not far away. Even if they were scared away now, they might come again at any time.
Of course, after this, Fang Zheng finally met the Pope brought by Sister Jinlong.
How should I put it…
"Nothing surprises me anymore."
Looking at Fina standing next to the Golden Dragon girl, Fang Zheng sighed deeply. To be honest, when Fang Zheng first saw the priestess appear in front of him, he was really a little surprised, but then he immediately calmed down.
"I never thought that this pope would run around everywhere... Miss Fina, you are really generous."
"...Mr. Fang Zheng..."
Faced with Fang Zheng's jokes, Fina also seemed a little embarrassed.
"In fact, I..."
"No need to apologize, no need to apologize. I don't have any problem with you hiding your identity."
Fang Zheng waved his hand to interrupt Fina's words. To be honest, he really had no problem with Fina. After all, although Fina had fallen into danger with him several times, she had never taken the initiative to bring Fang Zheng into danger. Instead, Fang Zheng had stepped into the danger first, and then Fina had taken the initiative to follow him. Moreover, unlike those women who were just pretty faces or women who were more trouble than help, this priestess... Oh, no, it should be said that Miss Pope could help him a lot every time, so Fang Zheng really had nothing to complain about her.
but……
"Ms. Fina, isn't it a bit reckless for you to come here alone to fight the evil dragon? Why didn't you call us along?"
Fang Zheng was a little dissatisfied with this. After all, we are friends. If you want to go out and fight, why don't you come to Tiandao Palace? Do you look down on us?
"I'm so sorry, Mr. Founder."
At this moment, Fina still looked like a little priestess. The only difference was that the scepter that was almost half an arm long that she always held in her arms had now turned into a white staff that was as tall as a person, engraved with the holy seal of the goddess of order... Well, at least compared to those crooked murals that looked like evil gods, this holy seal was quite reliable. It was a pattern made up of three equilateral triangles, and it looked full of a sense of geometric and orderly beauty.
It seems that the goddess of order at least knows what should be placed outside and what should not be placed outside.
The little priest holding the staff really had some of the Pope's aura, but unfortunately the clothes she wore were dirty and torn in the previous battle, and even her originally fair face was covered with dust and traces of smoke and fire. She looked a little embarrassed.
"Mr. Fang Zheng's Tiandao Palace is the last barrier of the Order World. I don't want to take any risks. After all, this trip is a life-or-death struggle. Even if I fail, at least... I can preserve a spark for the Order World."
Fina's words now had a bit of the Pope's aura. To put it bluntly, all eggs should not be put in one basket. Fang Zheng was not against her idea... It should be said that Fang Zheng could understand it.
But Fang Zheng was still a little curious.
"By the way, what on earth are you doing coming all the way to Twilight Border? You can't be thinking that this place is so beautiful and planning to develop a tourism project, right?"
“Ahahahaha…”
Fina had traveled with Fang Zheng several times before, so she knew that Fang Zheng would always say some strange words, so she didn't care too much and just smiled bitterly.
"That's not the case. In fact, ever since I learned from Carrie that Mr. Fang Zheng was attacked, I have been investigating the matter..."
As she spoke, Fina raised her head and glared at Kani in dissatisfaction, while the Golden Dragon girl pretended not to see anything.
"But what I didn't expect was that during the investigation I accidentally discovered that the evil dragon Baymons was involved with the Chaos Knights... Mr. Fang Zheng should know that the evil dragon Baymons is a fallen silver dragon from the abyss. So have you ever thought about why it appeared in the main plane?"
"Now that you put it that way...it's really weird."
After hearing what Fina said, Fang Zheng remembered that he had heard from the Golden Dragon Girl that the evil dragon Baymons was one of the Abyss Lords, and its lair should be in the Abyss. Originally, Fang Zheng had thought of fighting all the way from Hell to the Abyss to catch this old guy, but Fang Zheng had never expected that this guy would actually run to the main plane on his own initiative.
He must have seen the evil dragon Baimons before, and Fang Zheng's mind was full of thoughts of taking advantage of his illness to kill him. Now that he thought about it carefully... Fang Zheng suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
"Could it be that this evil dragon is fake?"
Don’t follow the same routine as Illidan, who is first the boss, then imprisoned, then resurrected, and finally whitewashed!
"That's not the case."
Fortunately, Fina gave Fang Zheng an answer that put him at ease.
"In fact, according to my investigation, the lair of the evil dragon Baymons was destroyed long ago. The reason why it came to the main plane was, on the one hand, to heal its wounds, and on the other hand, because of the agreement reached with the Chaos Knights."
"protocol?"
"That's right."
Fina nodded, her expression becoming much more serious.
"To be honest, I don't really understand the inside story, but based on various signs, the Chaos Knights seem to want to join forces with the evil dragon to destroy the barrier of order in this world, so that this world will be completely engulfed by chaos."
"Now?"
Hearing this, Fang Zheng couldn't help but frown. He always felt that this timing was a little tricky. In fact, there are similar situations in many games, but if you think about it carefully, you will know that this is very suspicious. You see, in most games, the protagonists are teenagers, and it may not be 20 years since they were born.
However, those bosses are demons who have been around for hundreds or thousands of years. Why didn't they carry out these plans before the protagonist was born? Why did they have to wait until the protagonist was born?
Of course, you can also say that it was because they were carrying out their plan that they were discovered, and those who destroyed their plan are the protagonists. This is a question of whether the chicken or the egg came first.
"I also find it very strange, especially the fact that Chaos Knight even tried to save the evil dragon just now... You know, although the evil dragon is recovering here, it has not had much contact with Chaos Knight. I can only guess that perhaps this evil dragon is an important link in the hands of Chaos Knight. Fortunately, Mr. Fang Zheng still destroyed the evil dragon."
"yes."
Fang Zheng couldn't help but let out a long sigh when he said this. He thought at the time that since the Chaos Knight had rescued the evil dragon, it meant that the evil dragon was definitely a key figure, so he decisively bit it to death... Damn, now that he remembered that guy hadn't taken a bath for thousands of years, he stinked all over. He had to go brush his teeth later!
"By the way, Miss Fina, I have something else I want to ask you."
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng suddenly remembered another thing.
"What is it, Mr. Fang Zheng?"
"You may have seen it before. My little girls beat the Chaos Knight away... I don't understand why it was so difficult for me to beat that guy. My little girls beat him and made him run everywhere with just one move. And before that guy left, he looked at my little girl and said that she was the Chosen One... What does that mean?"
At present, Fina's identity is no secret, Fang Zheng naturally guessed that she is the reincarnation of the Goddess of Order. As for why Fina walks the world as a priestess, Fang Zheng is also very clear. After all, the backups of the Goddess of Order have made it very clear that each reincarnation of the goddess needs to walk the world for several years to experience the people's livelihood - but fortunately, this time it is a priestess, not a woman with glasses who looks as cold as a computer or a female mercenary who drinks and eats meat with big gulps.
"I see."
Hearing this, Fina nodded, then she thought for a moment before looking at Fang Zheng again.
"Mr. Fang Zheng, those little sisters...are not from this world, right?"
"Indeed, they are from another world...Any questions?"
Fang Zheng did not hide the fact that he could summon Fina, and Fina did not seem to care.
"That's the problem."
“??? I don’t quite understand…”
"The so-called Chosen One is someone favored by the will of a world. When favored by the will of the world, he or she will receive support from all the forces of that world..."
"Oh, this is the protagonist..."
After hearing this, Fang Zheng understood that indeed Fate and Nanoha were both protagonists, as were Sakura and Tomoyo. As for Illya and Kuro... were they also considered protagonists? Fang Zheng was not very clear about this. But it was obvious that Fina meant that these little girls were able to fight against Chaos Knight because they were the protagonists of that world, so they obtained the power of that world?
But wait!!
"Didn't I also get that...Mark of Order? Am I not considered the Chosen One?"
"Not at all."
Facing Fang Zheng's surprised question, Fina smiled helplessly.
"Of course I know that Mr. Fang Zheng possesses the power of the Seal of Order, but Mr. Fang Zheng may not know that the Seal of Order and the power of chaos are both the power of this world and they come from the same source..."
“Oh my god!”
Hearing this, Fang Zheng suddenly became depressed.
It turns out that the attacks of those little girls were effective because they came from different worlds, and the power settings of the two worlds were incompatible, so they were able to produce results.
And because I possess the power of the main world, I am immune to attacks of the same nature? !
How can we reason with this?
