Hearing Fina's request, Fang Zheng nodded in agreement, and the two of them came to a camp somewhere on the front line of the Dusk Border, where Fang Zheng saw two familiar faces again.
"Hey, Bishop Karl, Master Stone, it's been a long time."
Looking at the two people in front of him, Fang Zheng laughed and waved his hand. Seeing him coming, the two of them nodded in return.
"It's been a long time... No, why do I feel like it hasn't been that long?"
"It's been about a year and a half since we last met. It feels like a long time has passed."
“That’s true…”
Hearing the two people's sighs, Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders. The last time he met the two was when Sister Jinlong invited him to a banquet. After that, a series of things happened. Although Tiandao Palace also attacked the Dusk Border together with the Kingdom of Holy Religion, because both sides were busy fighting at the time, there was no intersection.
After that, Fang Zheng had been busy with his own affairs, and he had also spent many years in other worlds... If you think about it carefully, for Stone and Carl, they had only not seen Fang Zheng for more than a year, but for Fang Zheng, it had been almost several decades.
"Bishop Karl, what's the situation?"
After the two sides exchanged greetings, Fina immediately got to the point. Hearing this, Bishop Karl frowned and shook his head.
"No, so far, the fog still shows no signs of dissipating."
"let me see……"
Fang Zheng walked to the edge of the camp and looked forward. As expected, he saw a thick fog covering the mountains not far away. They looked like layers of sea of clouds, hiding everything in the diffuse white mist.
"True Seeing."
Fang Zheng used magic decisively, but it still had no effect at all.
So what's next?
Fang Zheng opened his personal terminal and connected to the low-Earth orbit satellite. However, even with the satellite detection, the results did not change. The entire area was filled with clouds and fog, and it was impossible to see clearly what was inside.
“This is really weird.”
Fang Zheng narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself, then he turned around and looked at Bishop Karl.
"So Bishop Karl, I heard from Miss Fina that some victims came back before...are they still alive?"
"I am alive, but..."
Having said this, Bishop Karl hesitated slightly.
"But, the way they look..."
"Anyway, let's take a look first."
Although this was Fang Zheng's own suggestion, he regretted it the moment he walked into the tent.
"Oh my god..."
Looking at the "patient" lying on the bed in front of him, Fang Zheng's eyes twitched and his face turned pale. The current appearance of this person in front of him was really... disgusting!
Although the person in front of him still barely retained the appearance of a human, that was all. His entire body was swollen like a corpse soaked in water, and cracks appeared on his purple skin. Not only that, through these cracks, one could even see something like an eyeball throbbing inside...
“Woo… woo… ah!”
Seeing Fang Zheng walking, the "person" who was lying on the bed suddenly screamed in fear. He twisted his body desperately, as if he wanted to escape, but he had no way to escape. Not only that, as the person moved, a strange stench emanated from his body, which was disgusting.
"cheer up!"
Seeing this scene, Fina hurriedly raised the scepter in her hand, and then... hit the other person on the head.
“Boom.”
With a slight sound, the next moment the person who was still struggling desperately closed his eyes and fainted.
"…Didn't you just ask him to cheer up?"
Fang Zheng looked at the victim who was knocked unconscious, then at Fina, and felt as if he had just hallucinated.
"His soul is twisting. We have no other options but to make him lose consciousness temporarily."
Having said that, a white beam of light flashed from the scepter in Fina's hand, covering the victim. Soon, the victim's originally rapid breathing gradually calmed down.
"But there is no way we can reverse this..."
"Why?"
"Because this was not caused by Chaos."
"It's not Chaos... huh? Really!"
Hearing Fina's words, Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment, then he immediately reacted. Indeed, when he first saw this guy, he instinctively thought that he was also a victim of the Chaos Aura like those monsters that were corrupted by Chaos, but now he looked carefully and found that although the change in this person's appearance was hard to accept, but... there was really no Chaos Aura at all!
"Didn't you purify the Chaos Aura?"
After all, there are paladins, archbishops and popes here. Isn't it easy to purify the chaotic aura?
"That's not the case, Mr. Fang Zheng. In fact, when he came out, there was no trace of Chaos Aura on his body, so..."
“…”
No wonder Fina looked embarrassed, it did look a little unusual.
"Then let me try again."
After taking another look at the patient, Fang Zheng immediately left the smelly tent. He then took out a Doraemon from his inventory and threw it out. Soon, he saw the Doraemon swaying in the air twice, then quickly flew forward into the thick fog. At the same time, Fang Zheng also opened his personal terminal and began to carefully observe the scene inside.
In the picture, Doraemon was flying forward, but he could not see anything. There was only fog, fog and more fog in front of him, and then... the signal was interrupted.
"……Um?"
Seeing this, Fang Zheng was also dumbfounded. What was going on? Signal interruption?
Are you kidding me?
From what we saw before, Doraemon only flew a few hundred meters.
In this case...
"Iona, is the reassembler repaired?"
Fang Zheng immediately contacted his own flagship.
"Report to the commander, the reassembler has been repaired."
"Okay, shoot at the coordinate point for me. I want to see what the hell this thing is!"
Soon, as Fang Zheng finished speaking, just a few seconds later, a dazzling beam of light descended from the sky and slammed heavily into the fog. Soon, with the impact of the beam, the fog began to roll and swirl, but... after the beam disappeared, the fog still did not dissipate, but returned to its original state.
"This is very interesting."
Seeing this, Fang Zheng finally concentrated his mind. He raised his right hand, and soon, a spark appeared from Fang Zheng's fingertips. Then Fang Zheng flicked his finger. The spark immediately turned into a huge fire dragon, roaring and rushing into the fog. Soon, the flames burst out and tore through the thick fog.
"Haha, I want to see what's hidden in here..."
However, before Fang Zheng finished speaking, suddenly, accompanied by a low roar, the earth began to tremble, the ground exploded, and the surroundings were shaking. Even in the cracks in the ground, flames could be seen shooting up, looking like the sky was falling and the earth was splitting. Seeing this scene, Fang Zheng was also shocked and hurriedly put away the flames. As the flames disappeared, the disaster just now slowly stopped.
"Mr. Fang Zheng, what on earth happened?!"
At this moment, Fina and others also ran over in a hurry, while Fang Zheng shook his head a little embarrassedly.
"It's nothing serious. I was just trying to see if I could get rid of the fog, but now it seems like things have gotten out of hand..."
“I see…”
After hearing Fang Zheng's explanation, Fina breathed a sigh of relief, but her expression became more serious.
"However, since it can affect the entire world, it means that the situation may be more serious than we thought."
"By the way, don't you know what's in here?"
Fang Zheng looked at Fina, puzzled. After all, she was the goddess of order, so she should be familiar with the things here. However...
"I'm very sorry, Mr. Fang Zheng. I'm just a reincarnated body. It's true that I have the knowledge of the Goddess of Order in my mind, but many of the things she did were not passed on to me."
"Then let me ask others..."
Hearing this, Fang Zheng had no choice but to connect to the collective of the Goddess of Order again, and then let the group of schizophrenic patients quarrel for an hour. Finally, a collective from the ancient times said that there was similar content in her memory. She knew that the main body of the Goddess of Order seemed to have conducted some experiment there. As for what the experiment was... well, in accordance with the principle of security and confidentiality, it has been deleted from her memory.
MMP, is it really okay to kill them all so ruthlessly?
At least you can leave a keyword! Is it necessary to be so mysterious? Although I can understand that this is to prevent the erosion of chaos, but... well, it's useless to say these now.
This goddess of order absolutely cannot write mystery novels. With her style, if she goes to a mystery film set to be a criminal, even Sherlock Holmes, Kindaichi, and Conan would be hanged together.
I won’t give you any chance or clues!
What should I do about this?
After hanging up the phone, Fang Zheng looked at the fog in front of him and touched his chin.
How about... going in and taking a look?
In fact, it is okay not to go in. According to the practices in many novels, animations and movies, such forbidden areas are usually sealed and no one cares about them. Like the forbidden areas in online novels, no legendary strongman rushes in with nothing to do. Such places are usually for the protagonist to go in and then survive a narrow escape to gain the opportunity to comprehend great power... Oh, wait, I am the protagonist.
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng calmed down.
He now has the halo of the protagonist in the love world to support him, so why is he afraid of this?
However, although Fang Zheng decided to go, there was still a problem.
That means other people have to go along too.
In the past, when Fang Zheng went to other worlds, the little ones in Tiandao Palace didn't have to wait very long because of the time difference. But this time in the coordinate point world, because the time was relatively consistent, and the coordinate was suspected to be contaminated by chaos, Fang Zheng prohibited others from entering, which made the little girls very frustrated.
Although Fang Zheng later found some time to come back and have a meeting with Asuna, Kuroneko Eriri and the others to appease this part, there are still many little girls who have not had a turn yet.
At this moment, everyone was naturally scrambling to go with Fang Zheng to see what was in the fog.
In this situation, the two sides could not agree on a solution, so they finally decided to draw lots to decide the winner, and the one who finally emerged victorious was...
"I didn't expect you to come."
Looking at the little angel in front of him, Fang Zheng sighed, while Nymph blinked shyly.
"Because it's been a long time since I went out on an adventure with my master."
"Yeah...it's been a long time."
Hearing Nymph's answer, Fang Zheng couldn't help but sigh. Since the establishment of Tiandao Palace, Nymph has been staying in Tiandao Palace. Except for the activity of the Blue Fleet, she has never left. Now that he thinks about it, it has been a long time since he and Nymph acted together.
"Then let us go."
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng reached out and touched Nymph's little head, and Nymph nodded with a slightly red face.
Then, the two of them walked towards the depths of the thick fog.
