"I didn't expect that I still couldn't calm down."
After a long time, Zhou Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"You are still young and it is the time when you need to be aggressive. Being too calm is not good."
Fang Fan said softly.
"Besides, in life, at our level, money is just a number.
I don’t know how long it’s been since I cared about how much money I have, ten million, one hundred million, one billion? How much I want depends on my mood, and it doesn’t make any sense anymore.
For us, there are only two things left to pursue in this life."
Fang Fan raised his thumb in front of Zhou Yu.
“First, realize your ideals in life and complete self-realization.
Second, the name will last forever and will be passed down forever.
My ideal was to protect this family before, but now it is to protect this person.
If something can satisfy my only two remaining pursuits at the same time, what’s wrong with being excited?”
"Indeed, once we succeed, all individuals at their peak will eventually succumb to the human race.
At that time, there is no need for us to do anything else. The newcomers will naturally use the city as their base, nibble away bit by bit, conquer the lost land bit by bit, and let the earth return to the rule of the human race."
"Maybe there is still the sky and another world?"
Fang Fan shrugged.
"Haha, City Lord, it's too far away to think about this now.
It seems that we haven't even realized the first city spirit yet. We haven't even completed the construction of the first floating city. We are already thinking about filling the earth with city spirits and conquering the sky.
Take your time, step by step, and be down-to-earth."
"This is wrong. If you can't even think about it, how can you do it?
Didn't I see this small world? The first time I saw it, I wanted to accept it.
Even if countless forces focused on it and occupied it.
Even if I didn't have any means to take away the little world at that time.
But I still thought about it, and then aimed at this goal that seemed almost impossible to achieve.
Lay out the plan step by step, first force away other forces, divide the interests, calculate their mentality, and let them leave with satisfaction.
Then I disconnected the small world from the outside world bit by bit, and then transformed and controlled it bit by bit. Until now, I have turned it into something in the palm of my hand and reduced it to the energy system of the floating city.
You dared to think about it when it was so small, but now you can almost see its application, why don't you dare?"
"But it is so difficult to transform the world's cities, make them culturally important, and shape the city's spirit.
The heroes in the world are not necessarily easier to deal with than Jue Dian."
Hearing this, Fang Fan raised the corners of his mouth slightly and chuckled.
"Then just reveal it completely, I don't have to do anything, they will go crazy about it.
In the shortest possible time, all territories will have their culture and city spirit formed, without exception."
Zhou Yu paused for a moment after hearing the words, and then said quietly after a long time.
"Cheng Ling is your own effort, and you invested a lot of material resources, manpower, and energy to slowly take shape. Are you willing to let others get it for free?"
"It's not important. Besides, haven't I gained fame? I am destined to be famous forever."
"But do you really care about this? If you care about this, you don't need to do anything now to still be famous throughout the ages. No matter how long it takes, history will not be able to bypass you as long as it describes this period."
"It does not matter."
"Yeah, it's not important, then I'll tell you what's important.
As long as you announce the city spirit, you will never be able to reunite in your lifetime, and you will never be able to ascend to that position again in your lifetime."
"Pfft, Zhou Gongjin, Zhou Gongjin, I don't know how to say hello to you."
Fang Fan suddenly laughed.
"You people from the original Three Kingdoms world have obviously accepted many modern ideas, but why are you still so stubborn?
Never watched politics? Why do you have to be so obsessed with that position?
Emperor? Emperor? Pfft, I was laughing so hard."
Zhou Yu was speechless after hearing this.
"It stands to reason that those of you who command almost monsters can easily get rid of this obsession.
And do you aristocratic families really care about the throne?
A wealthy emperor and an iron-clad family, I, I really don’t understand you."
Zhou Yu smiled when he heard this.
"City Lord, I suddenly envy you modern people for living in such a beautiful world.
Unprecedented fairness, unprecedented abundance of resources, and an open mind rarely seen in history.
At least in our time no one can turn a blind eye to that supreme position."
Fang Fan nodded after hearing this.
"I think of something I said before. If I could go back, I would give up everything I have gained now and become the research institute who doesn't have any rights and plays games in the dormitory every day.
That’s still what I think now.”
"It's a pity that there is no if."
"Yes, there are no ifs. We are all heroes created by the times, and we are trapped by this era and cannot break free."
Zhou Yu suddenly smiled.
"City Lord, you haven't answered my previous question yet?
Are you really willing? Will you not have even a trace of regret now and in the future?"
Fang Fan shook his head helplessly when he heard this and looked directly into Zhou Yu's eyes.
"As for this issue, I can tell you now with certainty.
First, I have no interest in the imperial industry. My goal has always been to protect my family and then bring the human race back to its peak.
I have been striving for this goal in the past, present and even in the future. I have never wavered and will not waver. As long as I can achieve this goal, I will not have any regrets."
Fang Fan said firmly, but suddenly laughed again.
"Second, why do you always have to be so petty?
It's just a city spirit, and I admit that it can allow humans to embark on a journey to the extreme.
But after all, this is just a dead thing, just the same technology.
No matter how powerful or advanced the technology of a dead object is, it is still man-made after all.
Even if it is the same technology, it will always depend on people.
I could conquer them before, but after possessing the city spirit, I can still conquer them.
This will never change from beginning to end, only one thing will change.
That is when the human race returns to its peak!"
Fang Fan's words echoed in Zhou Yu's mind for a long time. In Fang Fan's eyes, Zhou Yu saw unshakable determination and strong, unparalleled self-confidence.
Zhou Yu suddenly understood why it was Ning'an and why it was Fang Fan.
“I can create city spirits and build floating cities, then I can create more and build more.
I have nothing to fear and I have never been afraid.”
Zhou Yu didn't hear a word of these next words, he was in a trance.
In this dazed moment, he seemed to have an epiphany. At this moment, he thought a lot. After a moment, Zhou Yu murmured.
"The king of men..."
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"nothing."
Zhou Yu smiled and shook his head, a firm look flashed in his eyes.
