Chapter 1503 This World is Very Big



This is not right!

Looking at the completely dead beasts in front of her, Chtholly felt mixed emotions deep down and just couldn't accept it.

You know, their battles in the past were all very dangerous, and they had to wield relic weapons to resist these terrible monsters. But now, they only need to fly in the sky and snap their fingers to easily destroy beasts that are many times more numerous than usual?

If this required a lot of magic power, then Chtholly might be more accepting, but the fact was that they didn't have to spend any effort at all. Even after getting familiar with the use of this strange weapon, all they had to do was fly a little higher, and then they could start the slaughter mode on those beasts... at will.

This is not right!

Seeing those monsters that she had to fight hard to destroy were easily blown into charcoal, Chtholly felt uncomfortable. If it was so easy to destroy these beasts, then what had they been doing all this time? What was the sacrifice of those predecessors?

Chtholly was still in a daze until she got back on the airship, so when Fang Zheng called her, she didn't react for a moment.

"I said, what are you staring at?"

It was not until Fang Zheng waved his hand in front of Chtholly that Chtholly came back to her senses and lowered her head in embarrassment.

"Sorry, I got distracted."

"You can be distracted by this?"

At this moment, Aiseya also asked curiously.

"We successfully eliminated the beast this time. Isn't that a good thing?"

"That's what I said, but... I always feel... that this is not right."

"wrong?"

Hearing this, Nephren tilted her head in confusion.

"No, that's right!"

At this moment, Chtholly finally regained consciousness and clenched her fists.

"When we fought those beasts before, it wasn't so easy at all. We needed to concentrate, otherwise we would probably die. But now, we don't have to fight like before. We can easily destroy those beasts with just a snap of our fingers."

“Isn’t this wonderful?”

Aisiya scratched his head in confusion and exchanged a puzzled look with Nephren.

"In this way, we don't have to blow ourselves up to open the door, and we don't have to fight as hard as before. We can also live longer. Isn't this a good thing?"

“But…but…”

"Okay, I think I see what you mean."

Looking at Chtholly, who was dancing with joy and not knowing what to say, Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders. He could understand Chtholly's thoughts to some extent, just like the emergence of mechanized infantry eliminated cavalry, the eliminated party either accepted it with pleasure or chose to resist. This was also easy to understand, just like the knights in the Middle Ages, who spent a lot of time and energy on riding, fighting, training, etc., and thus gained a superior status and strength on the battlefield. No one could compete with the knights. However, after the emergence of firearms, the status of knights declined rapidly. They were no longer the lofty battlefield kings. On the contrary, any soldier could take a gun and shoot them off their horses.

With just a single blow, everything a knight has learned and possessed for his entire life can be turned into nothing. If you ask yourself honestly, not everyone can accept this reality.

"Do you feel that you have put so much effort into fighting the beast, but now it's all meaningless?"

“…”

Facing Fang Zheng's question, Chtholly was silent for a moment, then nodded. At this time, Aesiya and Nephrine also understood.

But obviously, they are not as stubborn as Chtholly.

For example, Aisiya not only did not resist, but also welcomed it. As she said, in the past, when the goblin soldiers encountered an enemy they could not defeat, they could only self-destruct. But now, with this special and powerful weapon, they have an extra way out. Although the golden goblins have a weak concept of death, everyone hopes to live a little longer, right?

"Although I can say a lot to comfort you, at least... I can guarantee that this is not meaningless. Without everything you have done before, this world would not have survived until now. Then when I came here, I would not have met you, nor would I have fought here. Maybe I would be alone in the desert, playing Cain whack-a-mole out of boredom..."

Fang Zheng shrugged.

"So think about it in a positive way. Everything you have done has at least supported the world until now."

"But...what happens after this? What should we do?"

After hearing Fang Zheng's comfort, Chtholly's mood did not improve. On the contrary, she became more confused. Golden fairies were born to fight against beasts, and they died to fight against beasts. If one day, their existence is no longer necessary, then what is the meaning of them living in this world?

"I can't answer the three philosophical questions, but I can give you an answer."

Fang Zheng looked at the three girls in front of him.

"In fact, I didn't intend to tell you this so early, but since you have this idea, I might as well tell you directly. After all this is over, I plan to take all the golden fairies away from here. Of course, the premise is that you are willing."

"Why?"

Hearing this, everyone was stunned.

"Leave here?"

"Yes, this world is much bigger than you think..."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng opened his personal terminal, and soon, a 3D holographic projection map appeared in front of the three of them.

"See? This is our airship, and these are floating islands. This is the world you are familiar with, right?"

Curiously looking at the holographic projection in front of them, the three of them nodded. They were born and raised on the floating island, and for them, the floating island was everything.

"But in fact, your floating islands are just some small islands floating in the air, and the land below is like this..."

Fang Zheng stretched out his hand and gestured, shrinking the scope of the entire map. Soon everyone saw the gap between the two, which made them marvel.

"Is this the earth?"

"It's amazing...it's bigger than all of our floating islands combined!"

"Is this the earth? Don't you have to worry about falling?"

Although the holographic projection was only a rough outline, just looking at the scene in front of them was enough to shock the three girls.

However, their amazement was not over yet, because the camera continued to zoom out, and gradually, they saw that the land turned into a huge sphere, then into a medium-sized sphere, and then into a small dot of light...around it, there were similar dots of light everywhere.

As for their floating island, it had long disappeared.

"Welcome to the real world."

Fang Zheng let go of his hand and let the star map continue to spin. The three girls were staring at the star map in front of them in amazement.

"As you can see, this world is infinite, and your world is just a tiny grain of sand in it. As for these floating islands..."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng pointed to the floating islands nearby.

"You can see that they are of no importance to the world because they do not exist."

“…”

This time, no one spoke. After a long while, Chtholly finally spoke with difficulty.

"So, what are we going to do?"

"You can explore this world with me. In fact, I have told you that I came to this world for my mission. I have to face a threat, a big threat."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng reached out and grabbed the floating light spot in the star map.

"If I fail, the whole world will end. I need more power, more companions."

"But I don't think you need our help. After all, compared to the weapons in your hands..."

Chtholly swallowed her saliva and whispered that she knew she could never do that. The effect of the "Cain" in her hand alone was enough to offset Chtholly's desperate battle for half a day.

"Weapons are just weapons. If no one uses them, they are just a pile of scrap metal. And I am very optimistic about you."

Having said that, Fang Zheng patted Chtholly's shoulder and then put away the holographic projection.

"But you don't need to answer right away. Wait until we have dealt with all these beasts and before we leave this world, then you can give me the answer."

After saying this, Fang Zheng waved his hand, then turned and left the deck.

When they returned to the cabin, Chtholly, Nevlen and Aesiya were all silent.

It was really that everything Fang Zheng showed them was so shocking that it made them feel as if their worldviews had been recast. Even before they entered the room, the three of them still felt dizzy.

“I feel like I’m dreaming right now.”

Aiseya threw herself on the bed and spoke in a daze.

"Do you think... can those beasts really be wiped out? We don't have enough manpower just to rely on ourselves... let alone other things."

"But he said yes."

Nephrine replied silently.

"If one day all the beasts are wiped out, what should we do?"

"I don't know either……"

Chtholly also shook her head blankly. They had already gotten used to their current life. In the eyes of the three, they would fight and die like everyone else. Then someone would inherit their relic weapons and continue to fight. It was like a cycle. They had never thought that one day they would be able to completely destroy the beasts - or rather, for them, this was more like a dream in the distant future than a reality.

But now, Fang Zheng has given a brand new choice.

None of the three slept that night.
