"Okay, let me figure it out."

Fang Zheng put down the teacup in his hand and looked at the blonde and blue-eyed youth in front of him.

"You mean, you don't want to inherit the magic mark, and then your family will let your sister inherit it. However, because the relationship between your sister and the magic mark is so good, her vitality is greatly reduced after inheriting the mark, so in order to protect your sister, you have to choose to inherit the mark again......... So what's the problem? ”

"The problem is that the engraving removed from Rosalind has made a qualitative change."

Heine smiled wryly.

"I can feel that the magic mark is sucking my life force, and maybe it won't be long before I die."

"So you're trying to remove it? Since your family has already removed it once, it won't be difficult to remove it again. ”

"The problem is that the mark has invaded the inside of the body, and there is no way to remove it again."

"I see, it's like cancer is spreading, understandable."

Hearing this, Fang Zheng nodded, the situation of the young man in front of him was like a terminal cancer spreading, if it was early, then it could be removed and treated. But when it spreads, then it's basically waiting for death.

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng couldn't help but glance at Rosalind who was watching animation in front of his notebook not far away.

"So you're hoping for the Thousand Worlds Tree to help? Of course, no problem, we also have the corresponding technology, provided you trust us, but you should also know our requirements. ”

"Let the Istali family join the Thousand Worlds Tree......... IMHO, it's almost impossible. ”

"So let's put it another way, let's say you take out the magic mark in your body, and then what? You must have an heir in your family, if you can't, and neither can Rosalind, then what should you do? ”

"This ........."

"To be honest, I've always thought it was stupid for a magician to be bound by a magic mark."

Fang Zheng leaned back in his chair and stretched.

"What was Magic Marking first invented for? Is it to ensure that the magician can inherit the inheritance smoothly? Is it so that the magician can move towards the vortex of roots? But whether you think of magic engraving as a family tradition or something, at the end of the day, isn't it just a tool? Just as human beings invented the car as a means of transportation, although the car greatly facilitates human travel, it does not mean that people can't walk without cars, right? ”

Saying this, Fang Zheng snorted lightly.

"It's funny to put the cart before the horse, which is a mistake that only humans make, to be controlled by something that should be controlled."

"As you say."

At this moment, Heine's expression also became much more serious.

"So, what about your proposal?"

"I think you're so smart, you should know why our Thousand Worlds Tree is here. I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, it won't be long before the Thousand Worlds Tree and the Magic Association will start an all-out war, a war in which only one side can survive. If we win, the old tenets and unreasonable class rigidity that once bound magicians will be shattered. ”

Fang Zheng also restrained his smile at this moment, staring at the blonde and blue-eyed young man in front of him.

"Next, it's your choice."

“…………… However, this is a very risky option. ”

Heine, of course, understood what Fang Zheng meant, and joining the Thousand Realms Tree meant that once the war officially began, the Elista family would be completely hostile to the Magic Association. If the Thousand Worlds Tree wins, it will be fine, but if the Thousand Worlds Tree loses, then the Illista family will also suffer a devastating blow.

"Of course, I didn't say it's 100 percent sure to win......... That's a pyramid scheme, everything has risks, if there is no risk, why do we have to go all the way here to dig corners? The most important thing is that we need not the kind of guy who shares the cake together after the victory, but like-minded partners. If you also think that the rules and laws of the magic world are a mistake, a curse, a shackle that binds magicians, and you want to break it and change it all, then come and join us. ”

Saying this, Fang Zheng spread his hands.

"We've said all the treatment we can give you, and then, it's up to you to make your own choice."

“…………… Allow me to think about it. ”

"Of course it's fine, but don't die, your sister will be sad."

"Thank you for your advice."

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Heine's face, and then he stood up and looked at Rosalind who was watching the animation with relish not far away.

"It's time to go back, Rosalind."

"Huh? Brother, are you already done? ”

Rosalind showed a hint of surprise when her name was called, and she reluctantly cast her gaze to the screen of her notebook again, like watching an animation and seeing half of a child who was called up by his parents to do his homework. However, he quickly withdrew his gaze, and the well-behaved other party saluted the flowers, and then turned away with Heine.

"What a well-behaved and lovely child."

When the two left, the flowers came over and sighed in a low voice.

"You can see that she likes her brother very much."

"Yes, but unfortunately, in the world of magicians, it usually ends in tragedy."

Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders, then seemed to think of something, and turned his head to look at the flowers.

"By the way, flowers, let me ask you a question——— do you know why they call themselves magicians, not magicians?"

"Why?"

Hearing this, the flowers couldn't help but be stunned, and Fang Zheng smiled.

"Because what they're using is magic, not magic......... At least, it's not the same as the magic you learned. ”

"Isn't it different?"

"Of course, the essence of the plastic magic you are learning is to interpret, feel, construct and control the world. Chant the right spell, the right spell casting gesture, the right magic channel, and get the right result. This process is the same as solving an equation and a problem, but the magic is different. ”

As he spoke, Fang Zheng opened his hand, then clenched, and then stretched out again.

"You've seen a magic show."

"Yes, of course I did."

"That's the nature of magic, deception, like this........."

Three balls suddenly appeared in Fang Zheng's hand, and then she reached out and grabbed them, and then the ball disappeared without a trace, replaced by a flower, and then Fang Zheng took out a towel from somewhere next to him, and then covered it with the flower, and then suddenly opened it, and then, a pigeon flew into the air.

"You've seen this kind of performance many times."

"Hmm."

Flowers nodded, this kind of performance can be said to be a conventional performance of magicians on TV, and she has naturally seen it a long time ago.

"But you know, these magic tricks have tricks, tricks, and they just trick our eyes and our minds into making them look magical. And the magic used by these magicians is the same thing, except that they are not deceiving the audience in front of them, but the whole world, so they call what they use magic, not magic. ”

"Deception......... World? ”

"That's right, it's like this cloth in the hands of a magician, you can't see what's under it, how it works, you just know that the magician covers this cloth and picks it up, and the flowers become birds. This process is the magician's 'secret' and the key to their deception of the whole world. ”

Saying this, Fang Zheng snorted lightly.

"But what's fake is what's fake, and do you know why magic wanes more and more when the world starts to move forward? It is precisely because of their 'deception' that they cannot reach the hall of elegance. For example, there was once a family whose magic theory was the mystery of the human body, because no one else knew the human body, so they could use this method to transform and process their own magic. But with the development of surgical medicine, the human body is no longer mysterious to most human beings, at least everyone knows that appendicitis requires surgery, the location of the heart, liver, spleen, stomach and kidneys, and what is going on with fractures. And at this point, their magic is over. ”

"Why?"

Hearing this, the flowers couldn't help but ask curiously, while Fang Zheng smiled.

"It's simple, because they can't fool people anymore. Let's say you see......... Drink, I've hit your acupoint with this point, and you'll die with a headshot in three seconds! Three hundred years ago, people might still be afraid, after all, no one knows what the human body is, so your magic trick will be 'successful'. But now......... I poke, I poke ........."

"Aha, Xiaohong, don't poke it, it's so itchy........."

While waving his hand to block his chest, the flowers also smiled and dodged Fang Zheng's attack, and after smoothly rubbing a few handfuls of oil, Fang Zheng also withdrew his hand.

"Look, it's not a reaction, because now everyone at least knows that it's impossible for people to get a headshot, so their magic trick is over. In fact, the principle is the same as that of street performers, in the past, when you saw those people who were street performers, you felt that they had a lot of strength and power? But modern science has long proved that these people split bricks with their bare hands not because they have great strength, but because the bricks in their hands are made of hands and feet, and the parts and angles of the splitting are exquisite. As long as you know the principle, a random three-year-old child can split it. ”

Saying this, Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders.

"So now, you rarely see similar showmanship on the streets, and once it's exposed, then you can't get mixed up. The essence of these magicians is no different from these street performers, except that they are more advanced pretending to be ghosts, but the essence is still pretending to be ghosts, and once they are exposed, then they are also doomed. So the more science advances, the more magic dies. They used to build on ancient superstitions, myths, and legends, and once they are discovered by modern science, then the rest is just a deception to pretend to be a ghost. ”

That's right, that's what magic in the Moon World is really about, and that's why magic is called magic, not magic.

It's like the ripper girl in urban legends, everyone is afraid of her, afraid of her, and legend has it that she has the power to tear people's mouths apart. But once the police catch it and find that the Rip Girl is just a victim of plastic surgery failure, and her aggression against passers-by is due to mental stress and manic behavior caused by the trauma, then the mysterious aura of the urban legend of the Rip Girl disappears in an instant.

Because the "truth" has been discovered, after that, no matter how much is said, it is only a "rumor" and cannot be transformed into "truth".

But magic is different.

If the essence of magic is to deceive the world, then the power of magic is to reproduce the essence of this world. It's like those mathematicians who use equations and lines of numbers to parse the truth of this world. Numbers don't lie, so magic doesn't lose its effect because it has been revealed, as magic does.

On the contrary, the more people explore the true meaning of magic, the more powerful it becomes.

Saying this, Fang Zheng closed the notebook in his hand.

Therefore, the decline of magicians and magic associations is inevitable.

Because they just don't understand anything at all———

In this way, the peaceful day passed again, and everything was normal, except for the siblings Heine and Rosalind, and no one else came to Fang Zheng. Fang Zheng also understands this, the family of the Golden Diamond is currently in full swing, and the old guy in a wheelchair is the vested interest of the old forces, and it is impossible for them to stand on the side of the Thousand Worlds Tree no matter what.

Next, Fang Zheng waited for the monkey show to end.

Unfortunately, on the morning of the fourth day, a second victim appeared.

The location is still in front of the angel statue in the hall, but this time the victim is different from before, the flesh and blood are blurred, bursting and exploding, only from the broken wheelchair, the true identity of the victim can be seen.

That's the patriarch of butterfly magic, Ollock. West Sammond.
