Chapter 3 Testing and Visits (II)
After testing the strength, Lava City was already in sight, but a floatship was hovering above the Lava Castle.
This made Mo Ran's expression a little strange, because the floatship had the logo of the Glorious Empire.
As the first empire of mankind, the Radiant Empire naturally has its bearing, and the expulsion of the Firmament Councilor is the best example. However, it was because he drove away the Firmament Councilor that Mo Ran was surprised.
In Mo Ran's imagination, the Radiant Empire should be preparing for war in a hurry, how could it have time to run to his own territory?
For the Radiant Empire, Mo Ran has no ill feelings, although when he was in the Tren plane, he almost lost his life, but it was all because of himself, and he had nothing to do with the Radiant Empire.
As soon as Mo Ran landed on the platform of the lava castle, Wen Yuan hurried over.
As for... Pippi Shrimp, his dragon form will remain for a while, so he can't land for the time being, because his size is too big, and Lava City simply can't accommodate him to land.
Fortunately, Pipi Shrimp doesn't care, because he is educating the red dragon Carcarol and teaching Carcarol how to sublimate from a giant dragon to the legendary 'Pipi Shrimp'.
Although Kakarol's strength is very poor, his crimson scales are very in line with the aesthetics of Pipi shrimp, otherwise... Not to mention a despicable red dragon, even a colorful dragon will not be taken by Pipi Shrimp.
Seeing that Pipi Shrimp was quite stable, Mo Ran withdrew his gaze and asked Wen Yuan, "What's going on with that floating boat?" β
Wen Yuan was also observing Pipi Shrimp, because this was completely her dream pet, and it wasn't until Mo Ran asked that Wen Yuan reluctantly withdrew her gaze.
"His Majesty the Emperor of the Radiant Empire wants to meet you, so I'm waiting for you in your private parlor."
Mo Ran was even more puzzled and asked, "Xi Ze?" What is he here for? β
"I don't know!" Wen Yuan shook her head at first, and then explained, "Actually... His Majesty Nishizawa had just arrived in Lava City, and he said that you would be back soon, so he was waiting for you in the parlor. β
"I see." Although confused, Mo Ran nodded at Wen Yuan, then pointed to Pipi Shrimp and said, "That's the empress's mascot, and I'll live here for a while now, so let's arrange it." β
Before Mo Ran could finish speaking, Pipi Shrimp reverted to its goblin form, and then fell from the sky with a loud howl.
Mo Ran shook his head helplessly, and then casually tore the space in front of him, dragged the goblin out, and stuffed it into Wen Yuan's arms.
Then, Mo Ran turned around and walked towards the living room, leaving only the dizzy Pipi Shrimp and the sluggish Wen Yuan.
When Mo Ran walked into the living room, Xiao Zhengtai Xize was boredly flipping through books, and behind him was the meticulous court administrator Chad.
Nishizawa was stunned when he saw Mo, and then shot a fine light from his eyes.
As for... Chad, the head of the palace, was even more unbearable, and his whole body shook like chaff.
Mo Ran was also helpless about this, because he couldn't completely control his power now.
Fighting or something... It's okay, but it's a big problem in normal times, because as long as Mo Ran doesn't pay attention to it, he will escape powerful energy fluctuations.
Fortunately... People who don't control the rules can't perceive this energy fluctuation, but for the strong people who control the rules, it's a great fright, and Chad's reaction is a good example.
Mo Ran waved his hand and forcibly scattered the energy fluctuations before sitting opposite Xi Ze and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I haven't been able to control my strength recently." β
Although Mo Ran dispersed the energy fluctuations, Chad's face was even more ugly, because the energy fluctuations were only shattered, but not dissipated, so he felt even more uncomfortable.
Fortunately, at this time, Nishizawa waved his hand at Chad and said, "Go down!" With Your Highness here, no one can hurt me. β
Chad exited the parlor as if he had been pardoned, but before leaving, he still bowed deeply to Mo Ran, which was a due respect for the immortal powerhouse.
Then, Mo Ran asked straight to the point: "Say, what is the matter with coming to me?" I don't think you're here to have tea with me, right? β
Nishizawa squeezed his eyebrows and said a little teasingly, "Actually... It's also good to come to you for tea and catch up. You've only been in this lava city for a few years, and you're almost in time for my sunset capital. β
Mo Ran smiled disappreciatively and said, "If you like it, then stay for a while." I'm afraid that the Glorious Empire can't do without you, so presumably a full-scale war is about to begin, right? β
Nishizawa put away his cynicism, nodded and said, "Yes! Not surprisingly, all-out war would begin in a few months. But ......"
As he spoke, Nishizawa returned to his laziness and just said nonchalantly, "But... The Radiant Empire doesn't need me at all, because I'm just a faΓ§ade dresser. β
"So with or without me, the war preparations carried out by the Radiant Empire will continue smoothly and orderly, even if the war starts... The same is true. β
"What do you look like?" Mo Ran stared at Nishizawa's eyes and said, "You can't even see through these eyes, how can you be a good thing?" β
Nishizawa smiled self-deprecatingly: "You said these eyes! It is known as the Forbidden Eye, and it is said that it has the ability to see through time and fate, but this is only obscenity, because I can't see your fate clearly. β
"However, compared to an ethereal thing like fate, it is very simple to see through a person's power, so after seeing your power, I feel at ease."
"It's just that I'd rather not have these eyes, because that's... I will be able to fulfill the great wish of the maiden, three thousand. β
Mo Ran didn't expect that as soon as he asked casually, Nishizawa explained all his details.
However, Mo Ran still likes Nishizawa's freedom very much, because this kind of freedom is unpretentious, and it is only after seeing through the world that it will appear freely.
And he is the opposite of Nishizawa, although he sees the world clearly, but he still has to be obsessed, which maybe... It's what people often call death without repentance!
However, neither he nor Nishizawa is wrong, Nishizawa has a pair of eyes that can see through fate, so he chooses a free and easy lifestyle, even if his fate is set, Nishizawa will live a very wonderful life... with pleasure.
As for... Even if he has seen the result, he is unwilling to bow to fate, and always wants to hit his head and break the bloodstream, so his life is full of blood and killing.
Although life is very painful and tiring, I have hope, and I hope to support myself to this day, so that I can gain the strength to support hope.
So, these are two completely different ways of choosing, Nishizawa chooses to enjoy the process and bear the result, while he chooses... Bear the process and enjoy the results.
