Chapter 692 Tea Party in the Garden
"what………"
Seeing the figure of Vlad III, Fiore looked a little surprised. And Vlad III glanced at the two of them, then waved his hands.
"Are you also here to relax? Then come over, how about chatting with Yu for a while?"
"Then it's better to obey than to be respectful."
Hearing Vlad III's invitation, Fang Zheng was not polite, and directly pushed Fiore to the table, then pulled out a chair and sat down. Soon, an artificial man stepped forward and poured black tea for them, while Vlad looked at the two of them curiously with a smile on his face.
"You did a good job, MASTER of ASSASSIN. The Holy Grail War has just begun, and you have helped us eliminate a strong enemy. It is commendable."
"Thank you for the compliment. After all, everyone has the same great relationship, and I just did what I should do."
"No problem."
Facing Fang Zheng's answer, Vlad III waved his hand.
"Even if the battle is inevitable, the brave man who dares to muster up the courage and put his life into it is eligible for the reward. Even if there is a common goal and enemy, but you can face the SABER of the red camp and risk your life Defeating him is enough to be praised, and as a king, Yu will naturally not be stingy with his praise and thanks."
"Then I will accept your thanks."
Now that Vlad III has said so, Fang Zheng will naturally not be polite, and hearing Fang Zheng's straightforward answer, Vlad III nodded in satisfaction. Then he looked at the distant town again and sighed softly.
"After so many years, it is quite emotional to see that Yu's country is still here."
Hearing Vlad III's emotion, Fang Zheng also raised his eyebrows. Of course he knew the other party's history. Although he was not very familiar with it, even Fang Zheng had heard a little about the famous vampire Dracula and everything he did. Of course, that's more history from the movies.
"At some point, looking back on the past, Yu also thought about whether it was worthwhile for me to do so, but seeing that the country Yu guarded is still standing here after a hundred years, I am already satisfied."
While speaking, Vlad III stood up.
"In the past, Yu has killed all those invaders who dared to invade Yu's territory without authorization, and this time will be no exception. Although Saber has been lost, the red camp will not let it go. In the next battle, I look forward to You can keep fighting and be victorious."
Speaking of this, Vlad III gave Fang Zheng a meaningful look, and then he transformed into a spirit again and disappeared into the air.
So this casual grand duke came here to commend the heroes?
Watching Vlad III disappear, Fang Zheng also shook his head, and then looked at Fiore on the opposite side. But at this moment, the eldest lady seemed a little nervous. She was holding the teacup and looking around with wandering eyes, seeming quite nervous.
"Miss Fiore?"
"Ah, sorry, Mr. Fangzheng!"
Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Fiore almost jumped up in fright... Well, strictly speaking, she couldn't jump up either. She waved her hands in a panic, as if she didn't know what to say. This is quite normal, after all, she and Fangzheng were not very familiar with each other, and there was nothing to talk about with each other, so it turned out to be no different from a blind date...
"That, that... By the way, Mr. Fangzheng!"
Perhaps it was because she was desperately trying to find a topic, so after a while of "that", it seemed that her eyes finally lit up, and she continued to speak.
"May I ask...do you have a wish that you want to fulfill?"
"Wish fulfilled?"
Hearing this, Fangzheng was stunned for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses. That's right, the Holy Grail is the omnipotent wish machine, and almost all magicians go for this. And if you get the Holy Grail, you will naturally have a wish to fulfill.
"Yes, I'm sorry, I was rude, Mr. Fangzheng, I shouldn't have asked this question..."
However, after speaking out, Fiore also found that the question she asked was a bit stupid. After all, why magicians want to obtain the Holy Grail is all personal privacy. This is not a small talk like "what should I do after I win the lottery", but a fight where each other's lives are bet on each other.
"Actually, there's nothing worth hiding."
Fangzheng was beyond Fiore's expectations, and continued the topic. Since the other party started it, it would be easier to talk about it later. Otherwise, once this topic is interrupted, the two parties will fall into an embarrassing situation with nothing to say.
"I also want to pursue the vortex of the root, and the power of the third method is necessary for me."
Fang Zheng can be regarded as the moon chef anyway, it’s not like he hasn’t seen the setting of the five magics on the post bar, and the Holy Grail War will naturally be remembered by him as the third method. If Fang Zheng remembers correctly, the so-called The third method is "materialization of the soul"... I can't explain the specific sentence or two, but in simple terms, it is the ultimate immortality, infinite magic power... Of course, for Fangzheng, how much does this thing mean to him? It's also somewhat attractive.
Especially if the third method can be achieved, then Fangzheng might be able to use this to have firewood that allows him to burn infinitely.
However, Fang Zheng doubts whether the so-called third method is "infinity" in the true sense, or "infinity" that is only limited to the observation range.
But no matter what, if you can get it, there are naturally advantages and no disadvantages... Not to mention...
"Only with the help of the third method can I return to my homeland."
"Is this Mr. Fangzheng's wish?"
"Strictly speaking, it should be considered necessary."
Fangzheng took a sip of the tea in the cup, and then picked up a snack.
"It's the same as making money. When you ask people what they want, many people will answer 'I want a lot of money', but in fact getting money is not their own purpose, because money cannot be used for food. It can't be used to treat diseases, let alone realize your wishes. But with money, you can buy delicious food, expensive medicines, and you can get everything you want. It is precisely because money is the pillar that can be used for transactions , so it will be needed.”
Having said this, Fangzheng spread his hands.
"And it's the same for me. For me, the root vortex or the third method is not my goal in itself, but the tool I need to achieve my wish. If they can't be achieved, then for me It's useless."
"This is really...a question I've never thought about..."
Hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Fiore couldn't help but widen her eyes. As an orthodox magician, she has been educated since she was a child that magicians must reach the vortex of the root, which is the lifelong pursuit of all magicians. The magician, Fiore is also the same, but at this moment, after hearing Fang Zheng's words, she realized that her goal is only the root vortex itself, and she has never considered what she needs to do after reaching the root vortex.
"If a person doesn't have a goal, what's the difference from a salted fish... Setting a goal, whether you can achieve it or not, at least sets a direction for yourself, isn't it?"
Fangzheng shrugged his shoulders, then looked at the girl in front of him.
"Although I almost guessed it, please allow me to ask, what is the wish that Miss Fiore wants to realize?"
"Just as you thought, Mr. Fangzheng."
Fiore smiled a little embarrassedly, then lowered her head and looked at her legs.
"I hope to be able to heal my legs. Due to the influence of my innate magic circuit characteristics, I can't walk. But with the current technology, if I want to stand up, I have to abandon my magic circuit... But I don't want to do that, I hope to be able to stand on this land as a magician, maybe then I will go and look around... to see the outside world."
"That's a nice idea."
Fangzheng nodded.
"There is a saying in my hometown that it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. It is a good choice to go around and see the outside world. You will encounter some things you can't imagine, and some may Some will be better than you think, but some may be worse than you think... After all, it's a part of life."
"Then, Mr. Fangzheng, you too..."
But this time, before Fiore could finish speaking, she saw an artificial man coming from the side road. She first saluted the two of them, and then spoke in a low voice.
"Miss Fiore, Mr. Fangzheng, Lord Darnic, please gather the two of you at the conference hall immediately."
"What happened?"
"Yes."
Hearing Fiore's inquiry, the android nodded.
"The news came just now that in the forest, traces of the red party BERSERKER were found."
