Chapter 1525 The Second Victim (the Meow Who Is Worried About What to Eat Every Day)

"Okay, let me stroke."

Fangzheng put down the teacup in his hand, and looked at the blond young man in front of him.

"You mean, you don't want to inherit the magic engraving, and then your family will let your sister inherit it. But because your sister and the magic engraving are too compatible, her vitality will be greatly reduced after inheriting the engraving, so in order to protect my sister, You have to choose to inherit the engraving again...so what is the problem?"

"The problem is that the imprint removed from Rosalind's body has undergone a qualitative change."

Heine gave a wry smile.

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

"So you want to remove it? Since your family has already removed it once before, it shouldn't be difficult to remove it again."

"The problem is that the engraving has already penetrated into the body, and there is no way to remove it again."

"It turns out that it's like the cancer is spreading, it's understandable."

Hearing this, Fangzheng nodded. The condition of the young man in front of him is like the advanced stage of cancer. If it is in the early stage, it can be removed for treatment. But after it spreads, it is basically waiting to die.

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

"So you want the Thousand Boundary Tree to help? Of course, no problem. We also have the corresponding technology. The premise is that you trust us, but you should also know our requirements."

"Let the Istari family join the Thousand Worlds Tree...with all due respect, this is almost impossible."

"Then let me put it another way. Suppose you take out the magic seal in your body, and then what? Your family must have an heir. If you can't, and Rosalind can't, then what should I do?"

"This………"

"To be honest, I always thought it was a stupid thing for a magician to be bound by a magic seal."

Fangzheng leaned back on the chair and stretched.

"What was the magic seal invented for in the first place? Is it to ensure that the magician can inherit the inheritance smoothly? Is it to allow the magician to move towards the root vortex? But whether you regard the magic seal as a family tradition, what? It’s good for ghosts, in the final analysis, isn’t it a tool? It’s like humans invented the car as a means of transportation. Although the car greatly facilitates human travel, it doesn’t mean that without the Autobots, people can’t walk, right? ?"

Having said this, Fang Zheng snorted lightly.

"Putting the cart before the horse is a mistake that only human beings make. It's ridiculous to be controlled by something that should be controlled."

"As you said."

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

"And what about your proposal?"

"I think you are so smart, you should know the reason why our Thousand Worlds Tree came here. I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, in a short while, Thousand Worlds Tree will start an all-out war with the Magic Association. This is a war where only one side can survive .If we win, the ancient tenets and irrational class solidification that once bound magicians will be shattered."

Fangzheng also restrained his smile at this moment, and stared at the blond young man in front of him.

"Next, it's your choice."

"...However, this is a very dangerous choice."

Of course, Heine understood what Fang Zheng meant. Joining the Tree of Thousand Worlds meant that once the war officially broke out, the Elista family would be completely hostile to the Magic Association. It would be fine if the Thousand Worlds Tree won, but if the Thousand Worlds Tree lost, then the Elista family would also suffer a devastating blow.

"Of course, I didn't say that this is a 100% sure win... It's a pyramid scheme, and everything has risks. If there is no risk, why should we go all the way here to poach corners? Most importantly, we What is needed is not the kind of guy who shares the cake together after victory, but like-minded partners. If you also think that the current rules and laws of the magic world are a kind of error, a curse, and a shackle that binds magicians, And if you want to break it and change everything, then come and join us."

Having said this, Fangzheng spread his hands.

"We have already said all the treatment we can give you. Next, it depends on your own choice."

"...Please allow me to think about it."

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

"Thank you for your advice."

Hearing this sentence, a smile appeared on Heine's face, 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."

"Oh? Brother, have you finished?"

Rosalind, who was called by her name, showed a hint of surprise. She reluctantly turned her eyes to the screen of the notebook again, as if watching an animation and seeing a child who was half called up by her parents to do homework. However, he quickly withdrew his gaze, and the obedient Fangzheng saluted Huahua, then followed Heine and turned to leave.

"What a cute and well-behaved child."

After the two left, Huahua walked over and said with emotion in a low voice.

"It can be seen that she likes her brother very much."

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

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

"By the way, Huahua, let me ask you a question—do you know why they call themselves magicians instead of magicians?"

"why?"

Hearing this, Hua Hua couldn't help being taken aback, while Fang Zheng smiled.

"Because what they use is actually magic, not magic... At least, it's different from the magic you learn."

"Is it different?"

"Of course, the essence of the evocation magic you have learned is the analysis, perception, construction and control of the world. After chanting the correct incantation, the correct gesture of casting the spell, and the correct guidance of magic power, you can get a correct The result. This process is the same as solving an equation or a problem, but the magic is different."

As he spoke, Fangzheng opened his hand, then clenched it tightly, and then opened it again.

"Have you ever seen a magic show?"

"Yes, of course I have."

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

Three balls suddenly appeared in Fangzheng's hands, and then she stretched out her hand to grab them, and then the balls disappeared, replaced by a flower, and then Fangzheng took out a towel from somewhere nearby, Then it was covered on the flower, and then it was lifted suddenly, and then a pigeon flew into the air.

"You should have seen this kind of performance many times."

"Um."

Huahua nodded. This kind of performance can be said to be a customary performance by magicians on TV, so she has already seen it.

"But you also know that in fact, these magic tricks have mechanisms and tricks. They just deceive our eyes and consciousness to make them look magical. And the magic used by these magicians is also the same principle. It's just that what they deceive is not the audience in front of them, but the whole world, so they call what they use magic, not magic."

"Cheating... the world?"

"That's right, it's like the cloth in the hands of a magician. You can't see what's under the cloth and how it works. You only know that the magician covers the cloth and picks it up, and the flowers become Birds. This process is the magician's 'secret' and the key to deceiving the whole world."

Having said this, Fang Zheng snorted lightly.

"However, a fake is a fake. Do you know why magic tends to decline as the world moves forward? It is precisely because their methods of 'deception' are not elegant. For example, there was once a family The theory of magic is the mystery of the human body, because other people do not know the human body, so they can use this method to transform and process their own magic. But with the development of surgery, the human body has become a reality for most human beings. It’s not a mystery, at least everyone knows that appendicitis requires surgery, the location of the heart, liver, spleen, stomach and kidney, and what’s going on with the fracture. At this time, their magic tricks are over.”

"why?"

Hearing this, Hua Hua couldn't help asking curiously, while Fang Zheng just smiled.

"It's very simple, because they can't fool others anymore. For example, look...hey, my pointing hits your acupuncture point, and you will die with a headshot in three seconds! Three hundred years ago, People may still be afraid, after all, no one knows what the human body is, so your magic is 'successful'. But now... I poke, I poke..."

"Ahahaha, Xiaohong, stop poking, it's so itchy..."

While waving her hand to cover her chest, Hua Hua also smiled and dodged Fang Zheng's attack, and after successfully wiping the oil a few times, Fang Zheng also withdrew her hand.

"Look, there is no reaction, because people now at least know that it is impossible for a person to be shot in the head after being clicked, so their magic is over. In fact, the principle is the same as that of street performers. In the past, when you saw street performers Do you think they are very strong and powerful? But modern science has long proved that these people are not because of their strength, but because the bricks in their hands are manipulated. And when chopping, the position and angle are all particular. As long as you know the principle, any three-year-old child can split it."

Having said this, Fangzheng shrugged his shoulders.

"So now, you rarely see similar buskers on the streets. Once exposed, you can't get along. The essence of these magicians is the same as these street buskers, but they are more advanced pretenders. , but the essence is still pretending to be gods and ghosts. Once it is dismantled, it will be the same. Therefore, the more science progresses, the more magic will die. They used to be based on ancient superstitions, myths, and legendary theories. Once the true colors are discovered by modern science, then The rest is just a trick of pretending to be a ghost."

That's right, this is the true face of magic in Xingyue World, and it is also the reason why magic is called magic, not magic.

Just like the slit girl in the urban legend, everyone fears her and fears her. It is said that she has the power to tear people's mouths apart. But once the police caught it and found that the girl with the rip was just a victim of a failed plastic surgery, and her aggressive behavior towards passers-by was due to the mental stress and manic behavior caused by the trauma, then the urban legend of the girl with the rip would be true. The mysterious halo disappeared instantly.

Because the "truth" has been discovered, after that, no matter how much is said, it is just a "rumor" and cannot be transformed into a "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 the world. It's like those mathematicians who use equations and numbers to analyze the truth of this world. Numbers don't lie, so magic doesn't lose its effect when it's revealed, like magic.

On the contrary, the more people explore the true meaning of magic, the more powerful magic will become.

Having said this, Fang Zheng closed the notebook in his hand.

Therefore, the decline of magicians and the Magic Association is inevitable.

Because they simply—do not understand anything.

In this way, the peaceful day passed again, and everything was normal, except that except for Heine and Rosalind brothers and sisters, no one else came to Fang Zheng again. Fangzheng also understands this very well. The family of the golden drill bit is currently in full swing, and the old guy in the wheelchair is a vested interest of the old forces. It is impossible for them to stand on the side of the Thousand Worlds Tree no matter what.

Next, Fangzheng waited for the monkey show to end.

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

The location was still in front of the angel statue in the hall, but this time the victim was different from the previous ones, his whole body was bloodied and exploded, and the victim's true identity could only be seen from the dilapidated wheelchair.

That is the veteran of Butterfly Magic, Orlok Sisalmond.
