Finally, when Fang Zheng arrived in the new world, he appeared in the form of a wolf.
Because Fang Zheng really has no choice.
Of course, he could choose some super cute appearances, but Fang Zheng's self-esteem would not allow him to act cute. You know, even when Fang Zheng turned into a red ponytail, he never acted cute, let alone act cute as an animal. But tigers and lions are too tacky, and chimpanzees are even less so, so in the end he chose wolves.
After all, what does the slogan say?
Dances with wolves, show your heroic qualities!
Hmm? This ad doesn't seem to mean that?
Never mind, it’s nothing.
The wolf that Fang Zheng transformed into was pure white, and the size was no different from that of an ordinary wolf, which made it look quite beautiful. Of course, if it was a spoiled child, they might think of it as a big white dog. For Fang Zheng, this was naturally better. However...
What kind of world is this?
Fang Zheng raised his head and looked around. The first thing that came into view was a lush forest, and then several floating islands suspended in the air - well, it must be a fantasy world at least, there would be no such thing in the normal world.
So what's next... Where are the people? Who called me?
“Wa ...
At this moment, Fang Zheng keenly caught the screams from above. He looked up into the air and saw three petite figures appearing from midair and then falling directly to the ground. They were three girls who looked like junior high school students, one of them had long aqua blue hair, another had red hair tied in pigtails, and a girl with yellow curly hair and glasses.
The three people were wearing different red, blue and green uniforms. They just appeared from the air and fell down - then at this moment, suddenly a big fish with wings appeared out of thin air, caught the three girls, and then flew away.
“…”
Although they did not fall on Fang Zheng's side, but... just by seeing these three girls, Fang Zheng knew what kind of world this was.
He immediately had two reactions.
My first reaction was – Damn, my youth is back!
The second reaction was - damn, this is a childhood trauma!
That’s right, this world is the world of the animation that Fang Zheng often watched on TV when he was a child - "Magic Knight"!
As an animation, the plot of "Magic Knight" itself is actually not complicated. It tells the story of three girls who were summoned to another world and then commissioned by the great magician of that world to defeat the evil priest who imprisoned the princess and then save the world.
As for the process, it is a very orthodox RPG process, where the three people first look for their own weapons, then awaken their magical powers, and then defeat the enemies sent by the evil priest. Finally, the three people work together to defeat the evil priest and rescue the princess.
You see, this is actually a story that anyone who knows how to use RPG Maker can make up. Apart from the fact that the so-called "magic knights" of these three girls are driving mechas, there is really nothing else worth mentioning.
Of course, from the perspective of future generations, "Magic Knight" is not actually a very outstanding animation, but it was broadcast on TV after all, and Fang Zheng and other children grew up watching it, sitting in front of the TV on time every day after school to wait for it... Putting aside other things, it is at least a beautiful childhood memory.
As for the childhood shadow, it is the reversal of the ending.
Fang Zheng was still a child at the time, and when he watched the show, he just hoped to see the story of three girls defeating the evil priest and saving the princess. But what he didn't expect was that after the three girls defeated the evil priest and saved the princess, the whole plot took a 180-degree turn - it turned out that the priest and the princess were deeply in love with each other, and she summoned the magic knight not to save herself, but to hope that the magic knight could kill them!
This not only shocked the three girls, but also shocked Fang Zheng at that time. It was like you controlled Mario to defeat Bowser, and you were waiting to take the princess home directly, but unexpectedly, the princess said that her true love was Bowser when she saw you. Since you, Mario, killed Bowser, then you should kill me too! !
This is really a childhood shadow...
So when people in later generations cried out in anger when watching those dark and cruel animations, Fang Zheng always responded with indifference.
That’s it?
That’s it?
Is this the level of cruelty? Is this the level of cruelty?
You guys are still too young after all.
The tricks that you guys are bragging about now, I experienced them when I was a kid!
What about "Magic Knight", "Magic Butler", "This Beautiful and Ugly World"... and the things you are bragging about now are just nothing!
Especially "Magic Housekeeper", which is also a huge childhood shadow in Fang Zheng's heart. After all, at the end of each episode, they would kindly remind you that "there are XXX days left before Masho stops functioning." At that time, Fang Zheng didn't care about this at all, he just thought it was a special ending preview.
As a result, it wasn't until the last episode when the Masho machine completely stopped that he understood what the countdown meant - people told you from the very first episode that the heroine would die sooner or later, but it was a pity that he was too young at the time and didn't realize it, and even thought that a few hundred days was a long time!
What does it mean to hide a knife behind a smile and put shit in the candy? How can the childhood trauma of their generation be compared with these things that pursue "darkness, depth and cruelty" nowadays?
The real dark and cruel one is the one that makes you laugh until the last episode, and then stabs you to death. By the time you react, they have already left with full ratings and a little money. Unlike now, you can still curse online if you are not happy with what you see. At that time, by the time they reacted, the animation was over and the production team was disbanded. You couldn't find anyone to blame for the injustice...
In addition, there is another game that was a childhood trauma for Fang Zheng. The game itself is actually a common GALGAME setting. The protagonist is a 20-year-old company employee who likes to make robots. Then he meets a female robot. The main task of the game is to let the male protagonist work to earn money, and then increase the favorability of the female protagonist through various events, and finally let the female protagonist understand the story of the human heart.
It sounds so beautiful... In the end, the heroine understood the human heart and successfully got together with the hero. I think this is the story.
But it is not at all.
The final ending that Fang Zheng played out was that the heroine was exhibited in the school as a robot specimen. He was confused at the time and thought that he had played out a bad ending, so he walked away several times in a row. In the end, he even used a modifier to save all the time he would have spent working to earn money, and then used it to cultivate feelings with the heroine.
The result is still the same.
This puzzled Fang Zheng, who was still a student at the time, until he grew up and one day he suddenly remembered to check online and found out that the one displayed in the school was the good ending, and the BAD END was the heroine's failure and was thrown into the garbage dump...
And the Happy END means that because the hero helped the heroine, she understood the human heart and became an excellent robot, so it was taken for exhibition. At that time, Fang Zheng just wanted to curse, "Fuck you, which screenwriter is so cruel that you dare to write such an ending for me to see?"
Okay, we’ve strayed off topic… let’s get back to reality.
Fang Zheng shook his head, forcibly suppressing the boiling emotions in his mind, and then began to think again.
Fang Zheng knew the situation of this world. Xifeiluo was the world of will, and the "Princess Emeno" who was to be saved was the pillar of this world. To put it bluntly, Princess Emeno could only have this world in her heart, and she had to pray for this world non-stop, so that this world could be peaceful.
But if Princess Emeno is angry, sad, or has a volatile mood, then the world will change, and disasters such as heavy rain, earthquakes, and strong winds will come.
So this is not a princess at all. She should be sent to a nunnery to be a nun.
Eat vegetarian food and chant Buddha all day long, the six senses are pure, emptiness is color, color is emptiness, etc...
But Princess Emeno was not a real nun after all, so she fell in love with the priest Shegatu beside her. Of course, once you fall in love, you can't expect to remain calm, so the world began to perish.
This made Princess Emeno very embarrassed. On the one hand, she was not a robot, and her love for Shegato made her unable to extricate herself. On the other hand, Emeno did not want the world to perish, so she simply made up her mind and summoned three magic knights from another world, hoping that they could kill her, because according to legend, only magic knights had the power to kill Princess Emeno, who was a pillar. Since she was in a dilemma, she finally decided to just die. This way, she would be done with it, and she would not have to worry about choosing between love and the world.
But Shegatu obviously didn't want to do that, so he simply locked up Princess Emeno and stayed outside himself, determined to block and destroy the three magic knights to protect his lover.
This is the truth behind the "evil priest imprisoning the princess".
In order to solve all these problems, we must first solve the absurd setting of letting one person's will support a world from the root... To be honest, unless it is a robot, it will collapse sooner or later.
After Yuki Nagato has cycled August hundreds or thousands of times, a bug will occur.
And to solve this problem... well...
Fang Zheng raised his head and glanced at the sky in the distance.
Let's go talk to Princess Emeno first.
