Chapter 604: The Changing Self
THE ATTACK ON HELLSING'S HEADQUARTERS DIDN'T END BADLY, THE TWO VAMPIRES WHO LED THE ATTACK WERE JUST ROOKIES TO FANG ZHENG, HE COULD EASILY TAKE OUT ONE OF THEM, AND THE OTHERS WERE NO EXCEPTION. IT DIDN'T TAKE LONG FOR THE ARMY OF VAMPIRES AND GHOULS WHO HAD INVADED HELLSING'S HEADQUARTERS TO BE SWEPT AWAY, AND IN THE PROCESS, ARCADE DIDN'T EVEN GET A CHANCE TO MAKE A MOVE.
OF COURSE, THERE ARE A LOT OF THINGS TO BE BUSY AFTER THE WAR, AFTER ALL, THESE GHOULS HAVE DESTROYED MOST OF THE BUILDINGS, THESE HAVE TO BE RENOVATED, AND THE BODIES OF THE GUARD SOLDIERS KILLED BY THE GHOULS ALSO NEED TO BE REINSTATED, ALTHOUGH BECAUSE THE FOUNDER CAME BACK IN TIME, THE GARRISON GUARDING THE HELLSING HEADQUARTERS WAS NOT COMPLETELY DESTROYED, BUT AFTER THE INVENTORY, IT WAS ALSO FOUND THAT NEARLY TWO-THIRDS OF THE PEOPLE WERE KILLED, AND THE PENSIONS, FUNERALS, ETC. OF THESE PEOPLE WERE A TROUBLESOME MATTER.
But this is something that Intergula needs to think about, and for Fangzheng, he has another problem to solve.
That is the effect of the abyss on oneself.
Founder knows that every world has its own different smell and feel, just like when you walk in a spacious and bright future hotel, you will feel a different atmosphere and atmosphere when you walk in a dim and cold tomb and a cozy cabin, so your reaction will be different.
Just like the malice and corruption from the fallen humans he felt in the pitch-black world before, in this world, Fang Zheng felt a kind of ......... Instinctive rage and madness.
Even the seemingly calm and tough Intergula, and the mild-mannered old butler Walter, who almost interpreted the word gentleman to his bones, Fang Zheng could feel that there was a kind of crazy blood flowing in their hearts. This seems to be the norm for most people in this world, as if the malice of humans in a dark world will be infinitely magnified, and most people in this world seem to have a hard time keeping their sanity......... Or rather, they maintain a sane madness.
Even the policewoman who looked silly and cute was no exception.
If it is a normal state of travel, Founder will still be able to be unaffected by the atmosphere of this world itself. But the problem is that he is now polluted by the abyss.
This makes Fang Zheng's emotions very sensitive and easily influenced by the outside world.
Just like when I fought against the golden retriever man before, I changed the square of the main world, where would I talk nonsense with him, and go directly to cut it down and burn it down. But Fang Zheng, who had fought before, wanted to squeeze and enjoy his pain, and he longed to see this self-righteous creature wailing and begging for mercy in front of him, and then dying miserably.
Fang Zheng had to admit that when he saw the golden retriever screaming in front of him with a twisted face, he felt a ......... from the bottom of his heart Pleasure.
It's like the joy of a person pouring water into an ant's nest and watching the ants rush out and then struggle to die in the water.
It's like the joy of a swarm blocking a cornered prey in a dead corner, and a wave of A goes up and tears it to pieces.
It was like the pleasure of a dragon watching a lower creature tremble and crawl in front of him, praying for forgiveness.
"I really didn't expect that there would be such an impact........."
Fang Zheng's biggest problem at the moment was that the abyss not only affected his human part, but it was also like a chain, along with the Zerg and Time Dragon parts in his body that were also activated. This also means that Fang Zheng has to withstand the instinctive invasion from the three races.
Coupled with the influence of the "external atmosphere" of this world, Founder found that his personality was undergoing a subtle transformation.
If it weren't for Esther reminding him in time, then Fang Zheng really didn't know what he would have become if he continued.
"Master?"
Hearing the voice in his ears, Fang Zheng turned his head to look, only to see the silver-haired sword elf lying beside him, watching him. At this moment, Esther still didn't wear anything except over-the-knee socks, but Fang Zheng was not in the mood to appreciate his elf's posture at the moment.
"Are you okay?"
"Hmm......... Not strictly speaking........."
Fang Zheng reached out and touched Esther's head, the biggest problem now was that what Fang Zheng was encountering was not a curse, or something like that. The abyss is the precipitation of human nature, and to put it bluntly, it is the dark side of human nature. And any person who has a good side naturally also has a bad side. And if Fang Zheng wants to give up the dark side of human nature, then it means that he has become a pure "saint".
If it were those religious lunatics, they might aspire to this realm, but Fang Zheng didn't want it. He knew very well that humanity would probably be unable to achieve anything without the drive of the dark side. And Fang Zheng still has such a big Tiandao Palace to take care of, and it is impossible for him to find a place like a famous mountain and ancient temple to live in seclusion for a lifetime.
If it's a curse, maybe Esther can still solve it, but it's an "instinctive" problem, and it's not so easy to solve.
"If I can travel to the world of Xianxia, maybe I can find some solutions......"
While raising his head to look at the ceiling in front of him, Fang Zheng muttered to himself. Although he is currently acting normally in his daily life, once he enters the combat state, Fang Zheng will find that his emotions begin to have a tendency to go uncontrollably.
What's more, since it is normal to be emotional in battle, it is difficult for Founder to distinguish between normal "passion" and distorted "darkness" in the heat of battle.
Not only that, the reason why Founder is so entangled is because......... He found that as the influence of the power of the "abyss" increased, the power of his dragon clan and the swarm began to gradually return. After killing the golden retriever man, Fang Zheng had already regained half of his original physical fitness.
If Fang Zheng's judgment is correct, then at the end of this world, the power belonging to the swarm and the dragon clan in his body will be reawakened.
It's like walking a tightrope, the end represents endless treasures, but one wrong step can lead to falling into the abyss.
"Knock knock."
Just when Fang Zheng was meditating, there was a sudden knock on the door, and when he heard the knock on the door, Fang Zheng gestured to Esther, and soon, he saw that a layer of light particles quickly appeared on the silver-haired sword elf, and then constructed a set of white short skirt uniforms——— Esther could use the power of the elves to create clothes, so Fang Zheng also let her change into the battle uniform of the Xingli Hall in the Heavenly Dao Palace, which was led by Hei Kati.
At least this will give Fang Zheng some thought.
What's more, he doesn't want to be seen as a pervert who goes out with a naked beautiful girl.
And Esther, as his own elf, doesn't it hurt to see people other than herself?
"Please come in."
With a square voice, the door opened, and Walter walked in respectfully.
"Mr. Fangzheng, the eldest lady has something to look for you."
"Oh? What's up? ”
While listening to Walter's words, Fang Zheng stepped out of bed and picked up his coat.
"Is there another vampire attack?"
"Nope."
But this time, Walter gave Fang Zheng a negative answer.
"It's the HELLSING agency that has replenished the manpower, and the eldest lady hopes that Lord Fangzheng will go and meet with them."
"Oh? It's finally here. ”
HEARING WALT'S ANSWER, FANG ZHENG WAS NOT TOO SURPRISED, MOST OF THE GUARDS OF THE HELLSING AGENCY HAD BEEN KILLED IN THE PREVIOUS VAMPIRE ATTACK, AND SOME OF THE REMAINING SOLDIERS HAD ALSO WITHDRAWN FROM THE BATTLE SEQUENCE. Not only that, but after this incident, the eldest lady finally began to pay attention to the internal defense of the HELLSING agency——— which was only used to prevent the minimum intrusion.
But now it looks like the HELLSING agency needs to be upgraded.
"Is it someone from the army?"
"Nope."
Walter shook his head at Fang's inquiry.
"It's a mercenary.
“……… Mercenary? ”
