After hearing what Fang Yu said, Dict and Misu stopped and looked at him with some surprise. Because the Archon acted as if he was rising and falling, and the upper city and Hostings Cathedral were not in the same direction at all.
The road is long and cumbersome.
Luenlinius had already shaken his head and looked at him: "Why did you choose this path? It sounds unnecessary."
Fang Plover looked at the scepter in his hand. On the surface, it seemed to be the case, but it was only on the surface.
If everything follows the logic of reality, the power of the Dragon's Golden Eyes should be unrivaled in this illusion, and it should have escaped long ago.
But that didn't happen, did it?
Everyone here seems to have forgotten this.
On the surface, Dolifen's illusion repeatedly replays the disaster thirty years ago. The people and objects in the illusion seem to follow everything in the past, like a profound fate that the person in the mirror can never change.
But it is not actually such a mirror that reflects everything in the past before the world.
"Do you still remember the undead army from before? There must have been no such scene in Dolifen thirty years ago. It was the Dragon's Golden Eyes that was causing trouble behind the scenes." Fang Plover looked at the others and replied calmly: "Hurry up.
Zebuda, Mr. Luhn."
"But what does this have to do with you going to Uptown? In my opinion, it's still unnecessary. Maybe you have a reason to do this, but you have to tell us what's in Uptown."
Luen looked at him seriously.
What does Uptown have? There may be nothing in Uptown, but what will happen there may completely change all the rules here.
In a trivial detail that no one is aware of.
Fang Plover also felt a resistance coming from the scepter in his hand, which was the strong emotion of Dolifen's chief executive. The old man's desire for revenge became stronger and stronger. He seemed to be concerned about everything else that happened thirty years ago.
Already forgotten.
"How stubborn."
Fang Pliant held the staff tightly and shook his head firmly in his heart: "Count Declen Grosl, if you want revenge, this is your only chance to defeat the Dragon's Golden Eyes."
But the resistance of the scepter in his hand became more and more intense, and it was even mixed with the power of the Dragon's Golden Eyes. Although the other master in this illusion didn't seem to know what he wanted to do, he already felt uneasy instinctively.
.
Uneasy indeed.
Fang Plover said nothing, suppressing the abnormal movement of the staff and letting it gradually calm down.
Because the uneasiness of Dragon's Golden Eyes will not shake him, but will only strengthen his confidence. Speaking of which, he is not afraid that the black hands hiding behind the scenes will see any clues, because in fact, the answer has always been there.
But it is obsessed with its own power and arrogance.
How could he bow his head to this mere illusion, a group of weak and powerless mortals?
"Are you looking for a way to suppress the Dragon's Golden Eyes?" Among the three, Misu was the first to react. She was worthy of being a descendant of the dragon slayer, and she was very keen on the source of Nicol Bolas's power.
The older knight had always followed the lady's lead and remained silent at this moment without expressing his opinion.
Only Lu En listened to Misu's words, looked at Fang Plover and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Fang Yu didn't think anything, he just shook his head.
"You know what happened thirty years ago, Mr. Runn." He looked at Rune Lincius. Only he and the latter could understand this sentence: "The Knights of the Dawn could stop the Dragon Worshipers for a while, but they
Can't stop Nicol Bolas."
Fang Plover looked at the golden-red sky in the direction of the Gray Oak Square, filled with sparks, as if the scene not long ago was reappearing.
But at this moment, the sea of fire became more real. The building burned and collapsed in the flames, making a screaming sound, which seemed to bring everything back to the disaster thirty years ago.
Nicol Bolas's resurrection is imminent, and when he spreads his wings to cover the sky, the golden eyes of the dragon in the illusion will also gain full power.
Just like the moment when Doliphon's disaster struck in the past.
The dark dragon destroyed this city, and today it only needs to break free from the last shackles. Once the Blade of Illusion is broken, it seems to be only one step away from escaping.
Among the three of them, Misu listened to Fang Plover's words, pointed in that direction and said: "Its power is indeed increasing exponentially. I vaguely feel that it is about to wake up. Once it wakes up, none of us can escape.
"
"But thirty years ago," Lu En said quickly.
But Fang Yu interrupted him categorically: "Mr. Lu En, this was not thirty years ago. If everything went as before, the Dragon Worshipers would have failed, but would we have succeeded?"
"But seeing this city destroyed again will not change anything. It has been like this every day for thirty years, so what's the point of us being here?"
Lu En couldn't help but be stunned.
He returned to this illusion just to pursue the answer from back then. He returned here to relive everything in the past just to see for himself the answer to the mystery that he missed that day.
But does he want to change all this? Changing an illusion sounds so ridiculous, does it have any meaning?
Lu En suddenly realized that he had never thought of it this way.
In other words, no one wants to change a history that is destined to have already happened. What’s the point?
Doliphon's disaster is long over.
Now there is only ruins left here.
Everything they do here is destined to be in vain and cannot save anyone. If it has any meaning, it may just be to restore the seal of the Dragon's Golden Eyes.
A flash of lightning flashed in Lu En's mind, and he suddenly realized that not everyone thought that way.
There is at least one person who must work hard to change this illusion.
Just like a fool.
That person's name is Hu Di.
Rune had actually heard of that adventurer's name a long time ago, from the chats between the knights of the Tapolis Knights, but no one took him seriously. The Dragon Fire Guild just wanted to use this.
Just people.
But he is just such a person.
But he fought his way into Hostings Cathedral with the Blade of False Victory. Is it just a fluke? Or is it the arrangement of the Dragon's Golden Eyes?
Is it really so?
The image of a young girl flashed before Rune's eyes. He and Shizu only met once, but he remembered what the other party said to Fang Plover.
He looked at the young man.
Fang Plover is holding a scepter. On the scepter are the four words "rule all the armies". The words are as heavy as a thousand stones. It seems that it is not just a description, but a motto, writing the history of Dolifen.
superior.
Because the answer has always been here
Changing the history in this illusion does seem to be a waste of effort, but this is not the case. It is just that its meaning runs counter to the vital interests of the adventurers.
Therefore, few people will consider the problem from this perspective.
People never thought that in this city, day after day, the souls trapped here are always waiting for a salvation.
Those without purpose, such as Hu Di, adventurers with good intentions towards the past, can have a profound understanding of the true meaning of this illusion.
Fang Plover held the Scepter of Regret in his hand, pointed in the direction of the upper city and said to Lu En.
"There is a small pottery workshop in that place. Its owner is only in his early fifties. Although he lost his wife early in his life, the life of this small family was pretty good before today."
"Do you know the owner of that pottery workshop?" Misu turned back to look at him curiously: "Lord Consul, I thought you had never been to these places."
Fang Yu shook his head.
He was silent for a moment and then replied: "I don't know him, but I know his daughter. She is in your hands now, Miss Misu."
Misu said "Ah" and looked at the silent girl in his hand with some sadness.
Fang Yu pointed at the entire Shangcheng District and said: "There are thousands of families like this on this street. At least today, they are all my people."
He turned back to Rune and said: "Now I am Deklan, Deklan Logsl, Mr. Rune, do you know where Nicol Bolas started to destroy this city thirty years ago?
?”
He drew a line with the staff in his hand.
"From there, I saw the scene in the illusion. The entire neighborhood was turned into a sea of fire, and countless people were wiped out. But today, I want to take them away. This is the duty of a consul."
When Fang Yu finished these words, he felt a strong emotion coming from the scepter.
I don't know if it's regret or anger.
But he held tightly to the scepter.
"Mr. Deklen, I will let you see what you did wrong thirty years ago. Your strength comes from the people. You had the opportunity to avoid all this."
"And your hatred will also end because of this."
Fang Yu said silently in his heart.
The scepter suddenly calmed down, and then he heard a somewhat sarcastic voice: "It's so ridiculous, I want to see how you can turn the situation around."
That was the voice of the Golden Dragon.
Then the scepter emitted a faint light, and the mottled appearance disappeared, revealing its original appearance. It represented the authority of the Kaolin Kingdom. On top of the scepter given by the monarch, there was a brand-new Star of Hope gem.
.
A huge dragon screamed from the direction of the square.
Misu and Dicktrau looked at each other, as if they agreed with Declan's words. "I never thought that one day I would think that a stubborn old noble man would say such a thing," the older knight shook his head.
Shaking his head: "But you are right, we can't just walk away like this."
"What should we do?" Misu asked a little eagerly.
Lu En looked at his two companions. Everything seemed to be the same as it was thirty years ago. There seemed to be no fear or retreat in the two of them.
Among the three of them, he was the only one who was full of reluctance in the end.
"I'm really impressed by you. Now you're here to do all this mess. Shouldn't the most important thing now be stopping Nicol Bolas and the Dragon Cult followers?" He looked at Fang Plover and said, "Especially you.
, knowing clearly that this is just an illusion, can you distinguish the priorities..."
"Okay," Misu laughed: "Now I believe you have not betrayed us, Luen, you are still the same as before. But sometimes priorities are not so important. We just try our best, as long as the result is the same
Isn’t that good enough?”
Rune sighed.
He looked at the three people and thought that these guys were the same kind of people, maybe not quite the same as him. But he was just a businessman and knew how to weigh the pros and cons.
But he also thought that if it hadn't been for him, these guys would have been doomed long ago. He shook his head, and he didn't feel at ease letting these guys go do things.
"Count me in," he said. "What should I do?"
"Gather the others together, try not to leave anyone behind, and walk in the direction of Hagerstown Cemetery. That is the safest place before the decisive battle begins."
Fang Plover answered word by word.
Several people nodded and then left separately.
Fang Plover held the staff in his hand and looked back to see that the fire in the direction of Gray Oak Square had gradually burned over. The residents living nearby had actually noticed it early in the morning and rushed to the streets to ask each other what happened.
Just like that day thirty years ago, people seemed not to realize that the danger was approaching while talking, but they just thought that there was a fire at the celebration.
Until someone ran back from the alley in a panic: "Run, there's something going on, those guys from Hollett College are crazy! They're killing people on the street!"
The crowd exploded with a roar.
Some people turned around and ran away, as if they were going to inform their families, while others were still confused and didn't understand what happened. Women and children were so frightened that they started crying, and the streets were in chaos.
"Where are the city guards?" People asked loudly: "Why don't they come to maintain order? Is there no one to protect us?"
"Does the Archon know about this?"
Only then did Fang Plover walk out.
"I'm here"
He held the scepter in his hand and looked around at everyone.
The scene was slightly quiet.
"My lord, my God, why are you here?" People looked at each other and asked with some worry: "Sir, what happened over there at Gray Oak Square? Is it nothing serious?"
Fang Yu shook his head: "Don't scare yourself, everyone come with me. Men, protect your women and children. If there are people at home, go and notify them immediately. I am here. As long as someone hasn't come, I will not
Will walk."
He was there calmly, looking at everyone, making everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
Yes, the consuls are still here, so what do they have to worry about? Everyone calmed down and started running around to inform the neighbors under the arrangement of Fang Plover.
Fang Yu just watched this scene silently and felt the staff in his hand tremble slightly.
The illusion is responding to him, and this is the source of power.
It doesn't come from any one thing.
It's just the human heart.
…
"What is this place?"
Hongye looked at the rose arch windows on the left and right with some curiosity, and asked as he looked at this somewhat solemn corridor.
In the darkness, there was only the faint moonlight shining in from outside. The footsteps spread farther and farther in the darkness. This long corridor seemed to have no end.
Parker had praised Haikou earlier, but now he couldn't help but feel a little scared. This dark cathedral seemed to be full of weirdness.
The road goes deeper and deeper, and it is more than enough to pass through the entire Hostings church district.
The older knight did not answer at first.
He just silently observed the left and right, and after a while he said: "Thirty years ago, when they were forced to this place, a battle took place here."
