Chapter 3401: Help

The wandering businessman was very knowledgeable, and told Fang Zheng the whole story like a storyteller, and according to Kalie's story, Fang Zheng also figured out the background of this world.
To put it simply, this world was originally ruled by the Golden Law and the Ring of Eldon, but then the Ring of Eldon was broken, and its fragments were captured by the children of the demigods. In order to recast the ring, they obtained this For the dominance of the region called the Borderland, they began to fight, deducing a battle for hegemony.
As for the unreal things that Fangzheng saw, it was also because of the impact of the broken Aerdon Ring. According to the golden law, after the death of the person blessed by the golden tree, the soul will return to the golden tree, and then go back to the golden tree. Born from the golden tree. However, due to the broken ring of law and the confusion of the law, those who have been blessed are caught in the middle - to put it bluntly, their state is very similar to the undead that Fang Zheng encountered in the city of the dead at the third coordinate point. People are neither alive nor dead, neither alive nor dead. So people started going crazy, except for a few who were still barely sane, most of them became hospitable lunatics - basically when they saw you, they wanted to rush up to give you a loving hug.
But to be honest, Fang Zheng wasn't interested in this. What Rune or the Dharma Ring was to die for, there was only one thing he wanted to know.
"Flame, I want to know, is there a legend about flames or... a seal or something in this place?"
"..."
Hearing Fang Zheng's question, Kalie was silent for a while.
"I do not know what you're talking about."
"Well, maybe we'll discuss this again later."
Seeing that Kalie didn't want to answer, Fangzheng didn't say much. He found that people in this world seemed to be quite cautious about their own questions about flames. This was the case with White Mask, and so was Kalie. Perhaps because of that huge golden tree, flames are some kind of taboo in this world?
After all, trees are most afraid of fire.
However, Fang Zheng is not completely helpless. After all, he is still a prophecy mage. Even if these people don't tell him the situation, he can still feel something. It's just a waste of time to do your own research.
After saying goodbye to the wandering merchants, Fang Zheng followed the path and set out again. Along the way, he also encountered many soldiers. Although Fang Zheng wanted to show his friendliness to them at first, it was a pity that these people were just like what Kalie said. He was already unconscious, and when he saw Fangzheng, he raised his weapon and slashed over. The hospitality was almost on par with the villagers of Yanan and the knights of Lothric... So what else could Fangzhen do? Had to draw a sword and cut people.
But the only good thing is that compared to Black Soul and Yanan, the scenery of this place is really good. It's pleasing to watch, and there are cute little animals running around all over the floor. When you're happy, you can hug one and have a good time.
It was as if Fang Zheng was sitting next to a bonfire right now, stroking the little furry animal in his hand. This little guy came over from him just now, and was grabbed by Fang Zheng's tail and hugged him in his arms, and this little guy He didn't seem to know what to do at all, he just stared at Fang Zheng with his wide eyes pitifully—it didn't dare to move anyway.
However, just when Fang Zheng was addicted to the furry touch, a figure quietly emerged from the darkness and came to him. Fangzheng looked up and saw a woman in a cloak standing there,
"Hello, the person who came through the fog...my name is Melina..."
As she spoke, the woman walked to Fangzheng and sat down, then put down her hood, revealing her inner face. I saw that her left eye was tightly closed, and there was a tattoo-like pattern beside her. And her right eye stared at Fang Zheng with a bit of caution.
"I want to negotiate a condition with you."
"condition?"
Fang Zheng touched the soft belly in his hand and looked at the woman who claimed to be Melina.
"What conditions?"
"Do you know the Finger Witch?"
The woman continued to speak.
"They are the ones who serve the two-fingered, help, and guide the faders... But now you, there is no witch by your side... I can take their place..."
However, before Melina's words were finished, she saw a fire-proof girl wearing a black robe and a white crown that covered her eyes quietly appeared behind Fang Zheng, staring at her quietly.
Oh, she's in a hurry. She's in a hurry.
"..."
Looking at the fire-proof girl who suddenly appeared, Melina was obviously a little confused, not sure what the situation was. On the other hand, Fang Zheng laughed and touched the fur in his hand again.
"As you can see, Miss Melina, I'm a witch without a finger, but I have Sister Huo, it's not too bad, isn't it?"
"Sister Fire...???"
Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Melina looked a little surprised, but she still mustered up her courage and looked at Fang Zheng again.
"I hope you can help, take me to the foot of the golden book, and in return, I can show you the way, as long as you desire the ring of Eldon, then it will certainly help you."
"To be honest, I don't care what the ring is."
"…………"
Facing Fang Zheng's answer, Melina didn't know what to say for a while, while Fang Zheng stared at her.
"However, it's not impossible for me to help you, but in turn, you have to help me... I'm looking for a flame."
"………flame?"
Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Melina's face changed slightly.
"Yes, the flame that can devour and burn everything, do you know where this thing is?"
"...That's not something you can control."
Melina stood up and distanced herself from Fang Zheng. This time, she looked at Fang Zheng with a little more vigilance.
"I'm so sorry, maybe I shouldn't bother you."
After saying this, Melina's figure just disappeared in the air, while Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders and turned his head to look at the fire girl beside him.
"Well, it seems that we don't expect to get any clues... This world is full of malice..."
Not only did he seal his own flame, but even in this world, this flame was still a secret... um, it was troublesome enough.
Forget it, find it yourself.
As for where to find it... Fang Zheng also has his own way.
The erected branches swayed a bit, and then fell to the ground with a clatter.
"Okay, this way."
Fang Zheng looked at the direction of the fallen branches on the ground, muttered in a low voice, then turned over and mounted the golden warhorse, galloping along the road ahead.
The direction pointed by the branches was not the king city mentioned by the white mask before, but the road in the opposite direction. Although I don't know what is there, for Fangzheng, as long as he gets there, he will naturally know.
Along the way, he was greeted by the warm and hospitable soldiers, but he was obviously not interested in wasting time with these idiots. He saw Fang Zheng swing the sword in his hand, and the heads of the soldiers flew up one after another. Turned into a corpse lying on the side of the road. As for whether they will be resurrected again... that's not what Fangzheng needs to care about.
However, just as Fang Zheng was speeding past the road, he suddenly saw a young girl sitting on the side of the road not far away. So Fang Zheng also hurriedly slowed down, stopped beside the woman, and looked at her curiously. It was a blond girl, she was wearing a pink robe, tied with a ponytail, and her eyes were covered with a layer of cloth... Well, it seems that there is something wrong with the eyes?
It seemed that she heard the sound of hooves, and the woman turned her head and looked at Fangzheng.
"...Where is anyone?"
"That's right, this lady, what are you doing on the side of the road all by yourself?"
"Very good."
Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, the blond woman breathed a sigh of relief and said.
"Please, listen to me. My name is Irena, and I escaped from the city of Morn in the south. The servants in the city rebelled, and I was born with poor eyesight to fully understand what happened. But I heard terrifying roars coming from all directions, and my father told me to escape... but he was still in the city, thinking that was the duty of those in power."
Saying this, the blond woman sighed.
"...I am worried about my father, the servants are very angry, they hate everyone. Those who escaped together were attacked by them and all disappeared. Will the same be the case in Moen City... So I want to ask you , can you give this letter to my father who is staying in the city?"
As she spoke, the blonde woman took out a handkerchief.
"Even if I will bear the stigma of abandoning the city as a coward, I hope my father will leave the city... I hope he survives."
"That's fine...but what do you do?"
Fangzheng looked around. To be honest, the road was not peaceful. In fact, when he was crossing the bridge just now, the other party came over with a single shot, which startled Fangzheng. I have to say that there seem to be lunatics everywhere. Such a young girl is here, and she doesn't seem to have any fighting power. Letting her stay here alone... Well, it always doesn't feel like a good idea.
"You have no guards?"
"They all...disappeared."
"Uh………"
Hearing the blonde girl's answer, Fang Zheng scratched his head.
"That's it, this... Miss Irena, it's not safe for you to stay here alone. I have a solution. Why don't I take you directly back to the city, how about you go and talk to your father yourself?"
"……Hey?"
I have to say that Fangzheng's proposal was beyond the blond girl's expectations, and she couldn't help being stunned.
"this………"
"Don't worry, with my strength, I can definitely protect you. I'm mainly afraid that when I leave, there is no one around you. If a wolf comes over and eats you, it will be a waste of effort... …

Fang Zheng sees this kind of thing too much in RPGs. Basically, the child asks the player to save the father, and then the player saves the father after all the hard work. Just died... and then the player has to save the child or avenge the child. In the next plot, the kindness will set the child to be rescued, and then the father will join the protagonist's team. If it is the black and deeply disabled, then either the father died while saving the child, or he died with the boss to avenge the child.
In a word, all riding on the horse is a routine.
Of course, UU reading www. There is another situation on uukanshu.com that Fangzheng ran over after all the hard work, but the father was dying. He finally left a last message and asked Fangzheng to convey it. As a result, Fangzheng came back and found that his daughter was also dead... This possibility is also Not without.
Because there are so many situations like this in the game, Fang Zheng's first reaction when he encounters this kind of thing in reality is...I won't help you with a message, I'll take you there directly, and whether to persuade or listen to your last words is up to you. to do it? I just need to be a bodyguard with no emotions, right?
I'm not your microphone, I'm not tired of running back and forth!
This kind of is the most common in online games. A entrusts the player to find B to pass a message, and after finding B, B says that he has work to do and cannot go back to meet A for the time being, and then asks the player to help B to complete the task, and then B will say that there are more I will be responsible for the part of the game, and I want the player to go back and tell A that he will go back later, and then the player has to run back again... MMP, I feel annoyed when I think about it!
"..."
Hearing Fang Zheng's suggestion, the blind girl hesitated for a moment, then nodded, stood up, and extended her hand to Fang Zheng.
"Then... I'll trouble you."
