Fireworks burst in the air, and the next moment, everyone saw Latan's body falling from the sky, landing heavily on the ground. At this moment, his armor had been completely broken, and his body was charred. After Latan fell to the ground, he just twitched, and then the whole person turned into ashes and disappeared completely.
At the same time, in the dark night sky, meteors flew across and fell into the distance. Everyone subconsciously raised their heads and looked at the scenery in front of them, and they were speechless for a moment.
Gradually, there were more and more meteors, almost converging into a galaxy. However, at this moment, suddenly, a dazzling beam of light far surpassing the other meteors crossed the sky and flew to the other side of the horizon. The next moment, the entire night sky suddenly turned white, and everyone had to raise their hands to block in front of themselves. They didn't dare to put their hands down until the strong light disappeared.
Latan was dead, so there was no point for everyone to stay here, so they all left. The werewolf warrior also walked up to Fang Zheng and patted him on the shoulder.
"Well done, the battle just now was very exciting. The glory of this festival definitely belongs to Latan, and you. And did you see it? The stars actually fell before our eyes, I never expected it! Latan sealed something incredible, he is truly a mythical hero."
The werewolf warrior seemed quite excited and said a lot of things in a very eloquent way, but he soon calmed down.
"But now, the way forward has appeared, the road to Noklongan, and the road to Ranie's destiny. Then, let's go to the place where the star fell. Before that, I still have something to do, so I'll ask you to explore Noklongan first."
"By the way, what is Lani looking for?"
Hearing this, Fang Zheng also raised his own question out of curiosity. The werewolf warrior was silent for a moment before he spoke.
"A sword."
"sword?"
"Yes, a sword that can hunt down Two Fingers... You know, Lani is also a descendant of demigod. Logically, she should obey the decision of the Supreme Will, but she is unwilling to let the gods manipulate her fate. Instead, she longs to control her own future. Therefore, she plans to turn against the Supreme Will and become an enemy of Two Fingers..."
“Oh…I see.”
Fang Zheng nodded silently. He had indeed heard Haida talk about the two fingers and the finger witch before. The two fingers were the spokespersons of the Supreme Will, while the finger witch was responsible for interpreting the information conveyed by the two fingers and guiding others. In other words, the two fingers were like something like a messenger of God, and the finger witch was a priest serving God.
Fang Zheng didn't know why Lani made such a decision to rebel against her master, but for him... this was a good thing!
After all, that supreme will is most likely the world will of this world, and Fang Zheng is here to deal with it. If Lani's goal is the same as his, then he... won't be sleepy anymore.
"Okay, I'll go look for it."
Fang Zheng was also an expert in finding these things. If Lani hadn't told him what she was looking for, he would have had no idea. But if it was a weapon that could kill gods, then it would be much easier to find.
After all, not all weapons have this ability.
After that, the werewolf warrior said goodbye and left. According to him, he was going to deal with a traitor. Fang Zheng did not ask much about this, and he rode the pyroxene dragon to the mist forest again. This time, before reaching the mist forest, Fang Zheng saw a huge cave at the edge of the mist forest. Obviously, if I was not mistaken, this should be the gap created by the meteor before!
"I never thought there would be such a method."
Fang Zheng also shook his head with emotion, then patted the head of the Pyroxelron.
"Okay, go in."
After the pyroxene dragon entered the cave, Fang Zheng returned to the Eternal City of Noklon again. However, this time they entered from above, because a hole was smashed out, so the pyroxene dragon could also get in, which made it much more convenient.
And Fang Zheng finally had a panoramic view of the entire Eternal City from high above.
“I have to say, this place is really beautiful.”
Looking at the eternal city in front of him, Fang Zheng nodded with satisfaction. Not to mention the wonders of the underground starry sky, even the buildings here have a Gothic beauty. Just by looking at it, one can imagine how beautiful and wonderful this city was when it was prosperous. It's just a pity... I don't know what happened, and this place is completely destroyed.
Fang Zheng is neither Laura nor Drake, and has no interest in the stories behind these ruins. However, when he came to the interior of Noklongn, something still scared Fang Zheng.
Those were the remains of a giant...
The giant seemed to be taller than the entire city. It sat on a huge throne specially prepared for it. At this moment, it was completely skin and bones, like a mummy. But it must be said that just looking at the contrast between the giant and the entire city, it was a bit like Gulliver and the Lilliput.
Fang Zheng had seen similar giant remains in other places. Thinking about Latarn, Fang Zheng could guess that the ruling class of this world was probably all giants. He had seen this before. For example, the humans in Dark Souls were giants, and the dwarves were humans... Because in the eyes of giants, humans were dwarves, no problem.
However, no matter where the giants are from, they don’t seem to have a good life. Perhaps huge races are naturally prone to extinction, just like the dinosaurs...
The process of searching for the god-killing weapon was much simpler than Fang Zheng had imagined. Generally speaking, if this were a game, one would set up a deep maze, put a large group of monsters in it, and then put a powerful boss at the end of the level.
Of course, you may have gone through so much trouble to kill the boss, and when you finally open the treasure chest to take the artifact, the game will kill you directly. So the player will watch helplessly as the protagonist who can kill the boss with bare hands is knocked unconscious by a stone from the villain, and then the villain takes away the treasure that he has finally found after clearing the maze.
Well, the player’s blood pressure must have been high at that time.
Fortunately, Fang Zheng didn't encounter so many unexpected problems here. He just followed the scent and found a room under the giant skeleton. Then he opened the treasure chest in the middle and...he got a pitch-black scimitar.
Well, there are no traps, no mazes, and no bosses.
It's as simple as picking up money on the street.
This is normal. After all, this place looks like it has been abandoned for many years. Even if there was any strict defense here in the past, it is estimated that it has been destroyed long ago.
Those tomb traps that can still operate after hundreds or thousands of years are completely necessary for film and television. Time - nothing can remain unchanged forever in the face of time.
but……
"This knife is not normal."
Fang Zheng narrowed his eyes as he stared at the knife in his hand. He could feel that the knife was filled with a strong breath of death. This breath of death was so strong that it was a bit like the priesthood of the god of death. Of course, judging from the texture of the knife, it didn't look like a forged weapon, but more like a corpse...
Can Lani use this thing?
In short, take it back and show it to her.
So after that, Fang Zheng rode the pyroxene dragon to leave the Eternal City, returned to Lani's magic tower, and handed the knife to Lani.
"ah……"
Taking the black, curved knife from Fang Zheng's hand, Lani gently stroked its surface.
"It wasn't Blaze who turned out, but you. Even in my deep sleep, I could still feel it. Thank you, now all the conditions are in place. All that's left is for me to set off - to embark on a path that only I can take, deep into the darkness."
"Do you want me to help you?"
Staring at Lani, Fang Zheng asked.
"You want to go against the Two Fingers and the Supreme Will, right? I also want to cause trouble for them, how about we go and deal with them together?"
“I said, this is the path I’m going to take.”
However, Lani was obviously unwilling.
"You can leave now. It won't be long, but you've performed very well. This is the reward left for you, so... let's say goodbye now."
As soon as she finished speaking, Lani's body turned into light particles and disappeared into the air. Then, on the pile of books where she was sitting, there was something like an hourglass.
"This is the inverted statue of Kalia. It has a strange purpose and suits a strange person like you very well... Well, goodbye then."
Good man, you just leave like that.
Listening to Lani's message, Fang Zheng was speechless. The other party probably guessed that he would pester her, so she ran away as soon as she got the things and didn't give him any chance at all.
But...if you don't take me with you, it will be the same if I go with you!
How could I miss out on the opportunity to obtain the Supreme Will?
Although Lani ran very fast, Fang Zheng could still feel that her magic power went to the top of the third wizard tower - well, that means her next destination is there.
So Fang Zheng hurriedly left Lani's magic tower, followed secretly, entered the third wizard tower, went to the top and opened the portal.
There was a flash of light before my eyes.
When Fang Zheng opened his eyes again, he found himself at an underground river that was similar to the one in the Eternal City. So Fang Zheng hurried forward, trying to find where Lani was. Logically speaking, Lani shouldn't have run too far, after all, she only had two short legs... Hmm?
However, when Fang Zheng was halfway there, he suddenly noticed something flashing in the coffin next to him, so he quickly turned around, walked to the coffin, and looked inside - then Fang Zheng saw a small and cute Lani doll, about the same size as Zhenhong, lying inside.
Well, it looks no different from an ordinary doll, but Fang Zheng can feel the breath coming from it.
Phew, is this shrinking?
Fang Zheng reached out, took out the Lani doll, and pinched her face.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?"
“…”
The puppet didn't move or react at all, as if it was just a puppet.
"Speak? Don't be shy. You look cute like this, don't you?"
“…”
"No movement, then I'll lift up your clothes okay?"
"...Hey, I didn't expect you to be so clingy."
Hearing this, Lani finally couldn't help but speak.
"Or do you have the habit of talking to puppets?"
"If it's a cute doll, I'll even hold it while sleeping."
“…Oh, forget it.”
Hearing Fang Zheng's self-righteous answer, Lani sighed speechlessly.
"I didn't intend to make this appearance known to the world... but now that you've been discovered, you can't get away with it. I need your help - to find and destroy the shadow of disaster on this land. You've brought shame to the witch Ranie, and I won't allow you to refuse."
My goodness, what kind of tsundere way is this?
Fang Zheng touched Lani's little head.
"Of course, wouldn't it be over if you had said so earlier?"
