Chapter 336: The Forest of Gradual Chaos (IV)
After that, Nimfu rushed over with the others, and the cruel scene before them shocked the girls. Although the little fire dragon can go back in time to heal the wounds of the living, it cannot bring the dead back to life. Therefore, those elves who died because of the atrocities of the goblins naturally cannot be resurrected again.
Since the girls in his team arrived, Fang Zheng naturally handed over these elves to them to take care of, after all, these elves were still naked, and he didn't know where to start even if he wanted to help. It might as well be left to the girls to deal with, while Fang Zheng began to search the entire cavern, trying to find some clues or something.
But it's a pity that Fang Zheng has been busy for a long time, and he still hasn't found anything in the cave, which is also normal, goblins, a mentally retarded race who can't even figure out that one plus one equals two, who would be stupid enough to give them orders through letters!
And the whole cavern, in addition to the corpses of the goblins, there are some loot and bones that they have fed from the elves or other victims......... In the end, Founder also returned in vain.
"Did you find anything? Mr. Founder? ”
When Fang Zheng came out of the cave, Fina hurriedly stepped forward to ask, and Fang Zheng shook his head.
"Only a few tattered and elven things, nothing useful to find."
Saying this, Fang Zheng glanced at Nimfu, and sensing Fang Zheng's gaze, Nimfu closed his eyes and sensed the surroundings, and then shook his head slightly at Fang Zheng.
There is nothing nearby.
Receiving Nimfu's answer, Fang Zheng nodded. He wasn't a fool, and after learning from the elf girl that there was another behind these goblins, he had Nimfu turn on the full-band radar search mode to prevent the shadow from turning around and killing them by surprise. But now it seems that this problem is not to be worried about for the time being.
Then the question is, what exactly is that black shadow?
To be honest, Founder's is not clueless about this.
According to the elven girl, they suddenly fainted when they saw the dark shadow. In the Illusion Department, there are several high-level spells that can achieve this effect, but Fang Zheng gave up the illusion because of his specialization in prophecy, so he can't judge it for a while. But if he were to judge, then Fang Zheng was more inclined to another outcome.
According to the elven girls, before they passed out, they felt a great, almost uncontrollable fear. And in this case, apart from spells, in Fang Zheng's memory, there is only one way to do it, in fact, even Fang Zheng himself can do it.
Long Wei.
As a young dragon, if the current Fang Zheng used all his dragon power in front of those mortals in the fire dragon world, then they would also have the same symptoms as these elves, and they would fall into a coma due to excessive panic, and even have a mental breakdown. But the problem is that it's a world without any magic, and those people are just ordinary mortals. And the elves in the main world have better magic resistance than humans, although they are not as good as the dwarves' almost magically immune physique, but they are not ordinary dragons can deal with.
The elves who can make the magic resistance very high can fall into a coma without even taking a look, if the other party is really a dragon, then it will definitely not be an ordinary dragon, and it may not even be an adult dragon, but .........
Forget it, there's no point in thinking about it now.
Fang Zheng shook his head and put aside the thoughts in his mind, he had not yet seen the dragons of this world, although from the book of the White Tower, he had also learned some deeds about these dragons, but these were only records. In fact, the dragons of the Overworld rarely appear in the presence of mortals, who occasionally take on human form, act with adventurers, or quietly watch the rise and fall of a nation. Of course, there are also dragons who will come out and play their role faithfully.........
"How's the elves doing?"
"They are tired and mentally devastated and have been given them the magic of calming their minds, at least ......... At least give them a good rest for a while. ”
Speaking of this, Fina's expression was a little depressed, although when they came, everything had been settled by Fangzheng, but these girls were not stupid, just looking at the appearance of those elves, and the tragic situation of those dead elves, they could guess what happened here.
"Also, I noticed something very strange......... The magic in these elves......... Seems to ........."
Speaking of which, Fina seemed to be a little unsure of how to explain it.
"It seems......... It's all gone, as if they've collectively unleashed an oversized spell, and now they're so exhausted, half of it is because of over-use of their mana. But I asked the elf lady, and she was pretty sure she hadn't cast any spells at all today. ”
"Oh? And this kind of thing? ”
Hearing this, Fang Zheng frowned, but then he didn't say anything.
"Anyway, let's go check it out first."
At this moment, those elves have been removed from the cave by the girls, with the help of Fina and others, these elves have changed into ordinary robes and boots, which are also the spare items that the girls bring when they go out, fortunately, the elves' body is originally slenderer than humans, so these clothes can still be worn.
And now, the elves were leaning against the trunks of the trees, falling into a quiet slumber.
There were also a few elves who were covered in white cloth and placed by the river on the other side, they were the ones who were brutally killed by the goblins, and now, Fang Zheng saw that the three elf girls he had rescued from the cave were kneeling in front of these corpses and whispering prayers, and he could even faintly hear their crying.
"I think I can understand their grief."
With the scepter in her hand, Fina stood quietly beside Fang Zheng, staring at the scene not far away with complicated eyes.
"I've had a similar experience, when it was just an ordinary patrol, saying goodbye to my friends and working the same as before, but suddenly I was so separated......... In contrast, it is easier to accept death on the battlefield with the cultists, after all, at that time, everyone has already been mentally prepared for this. But now ........."
Fina didn't continue, but Fang Zheng understood what she meant. It's like in modern times, if you're killed by a stray bullet on a chaotic battlefield, it's not surprising at all, but if you go out grocery shopping and come back and accidentally get involved in a car accident, it's hard for your friends and family to accept that fact.
"Why?"
At this moment, Katie's voice came from the side, although she was hiding her figure as always, but both Fang Zheng and Fina could hear the sadness and questions in Katie's tone.
"Why are those evil monsters allowed to survive in this world? Isn't the goddess of order a good god? Why would she allow such a monster to live in a world of order? ”
"This ........."
Fina opened her mouth to Katie's questioning, but in the end she didn't say anything. Instead, Fang Zheng squinted his eyes and looked into the distance.
"Order knows no distinction between good and evil, and in fact, nothing is born predestined to do anything. Angels and demons are equally part of the order, and so are we humans, but there are also good and bad people among human beings. Wolves are cunning, insidious, and ferocious creatures, and to rabbits, they are no different from demons. The same goes for these goblins, they're evil, they're as annoying as the rats in the gutter, but they're part of the world anyway........."
"That......... How do you tell the difference between good and bad? ”
"It's simple."
Faced with Katie's question, the corners of Fangzheng's mouth curled slightly.
"It's up to you."
"My own ......... Choose? ”
"That's right, just like humans, no one says that humans are born good people in the Order camp, you can be a good person, you can be a villain. You can be a killer or a priest who saves the world. You can be greedy and lustful, and you can also work hard. You can choose to fight for order, or learn from the cultists and run away to be the little brother of Chaos. It's all your own choice, your own decision, and the order doesn't bind your will, even if it's the same birth, the same basis, there will be different results. ”
Saying this, Fang Zheng spread his hands.
"And the same goes for the goblins, who have chosen this path, and are destined to be destroyed one day, just like I did. And I chose this path, which is why I killed these goblins to save the victims. If I choose to be a selfish person, then I can do nothing and turn away to avoid getting into trouble, and leave these elves alone. And they may be tortured to death by all these goblins, or they may be saved by their companions, these are all choices, yours, mine, everyone's choice, this is life. ”
Katie fell silent at Fangzheng's words, and Fina also clutched the scepter, and then she looked up at Fangzheng.
There was a certain determination in those eyes.
"So, Mr. Founder, what if you make the wrong choice?"
"There are no wrong choices in this world, some people's dreams are to save the world, and some people just want to see the world burn, and right and wrong are not the point. What others think is right, you may not think so, and in the same way, what you think is right may mean nothing to others. ”
Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders in the face of Fina's inquiry.
"The point is that they have to accept the consequences of their choices, it's that simple."
