Chapter 98 Crow Prophecy I
Sha Ye knocked on the door, and in just a moment, the closed wooden door opened. There were a pair of vigilant eyes inside the door. Its owner looked at everyone nervously and uneasy before speaking: "You are finally back." The man shifted his gaze again and landed on Fang Zhu and the other two, "What are they?"
"It's the person I'm looking for."
"It is they who broke Dorifin's illusion?"
Saya nodded.
The man then opened the door and let everyone enter. However, he stood aside, seeing Fang Yu's expression clearly showed a little curiosity and awe.
The caller rarely looks at people like this unless he is a fanatical fan - but apart from Afeifa, Fang Yushi has never seen the second fan of his own, not to mention that Afeifa is not the caller. But this is normal. Compared with those real superstar callers, he is still far behind. He has only experienced a few events with considerable exposure, but to outsiders, his absolute strength is far less than the level that can support his fame.
He is like Loofah of the same era. Before she really made her mark, many people were optimistic that she would "dead" or "death" halfway. There are many geniuses, but the shining stars quickly fade away one after another, like meteors passing through the sky. Some are enough to leave a memory in people's hearts, but more can't even be left behind.
The several events that Fang Ling experienced were enough to leave him a record in the history of Aitalia, but others cannot see clearly whether the decisive factor is luck or strength. Most voices still believe that he is "virtue is not worthy of position". The virtue here naturally refers to the absolute strength possessed by a conscript.
However, these voices at least agree with one statement, believing that he is qualified to compete with the outstanding newcomers of this period, including several genius teenagers trained by the Rainbow League and Flor's descendants, and some of them may also know Fang Ling - such as Wu Di of Silver Lin Spear.
People even think that he is even better and can surpass several other newcomers, at least in the first world, which is the popular saying of "Newcomer King" a few years ago. Of course, after Loofah, people rarely mention this title now. After all, a lot of things happened to the "Newcomer King" back then. But in short, it almost gave him the status of "Miss Luofa" who was almost the Rose Crusader back then.
Also known as Sophie, the silver Vislan little princess was called Luofa's second before Fang Ling appeared, so she sometimes laughed at it that Fang Ling had seized her position and was uneasy. However, when she said this, she spoke very relaxed, and even with a joking voice. Fang Ling could hear that the other party didn't care much about the title.
There are actually many people who don’t care about this title, such as those geniuses in the second world, and there are few geniuses in the second world, but each one has the strength of nearly His Royal Highness. Fang Yu has always known the strength of those who are called "novel" level novices, but those people are two worlds with him, and there is almost no intersection between the two sides.
This is the reality. Most people's eyes only look at the second world, whether inside or outside the Star Gate. Discussing what happened in the first world in the community is actually just a very small circle. Most of the circle are veteran "players" like Luo Hao and Fang Ling himself. These people are interested in this world and are considered hardcore in the eyes of ordinary people. More super competitive ordinary fans may not even be able to distinguish the differences between low-level leagues, and of course they are not clear about some of the things behind the Covenant Mountain incident.
Just like Ai Xiaoxiao not long ago.
The deeper you understand the rules of this world, the harder it is to become that kind of fanatical fan. Therefore, people who understand the First World often know the sphere of influence of the major guilds in the First World, and comment on the new people who have risen from this lower-level world, but they rarely look up to them.
People who can have such a mentality will not pay attention to what is happening in the first world.
This is exactly the dilemma encountered by most of the first world's callers and guilds. Lack of attention from reality means lack of commercial value, and no one will join them, nor will they be able to obtain investment from the real world. Therefore, the poor are getting poorer and the rich are getting richer.
The Super Athletics could have balanced this, but now it seems that instead of doing it, they have exacerbated this differentiation.
Since the Grand Guild monopolized the most upward channels from the First World to the Second World, over time, ordinary people gave up their unrealistic fantasies. They only regarded staying in the First World as a simple job of making fortunes, just like the gold diggers in the 18th century gold rush. Anyway, even if they don’t go to the Second World, they can exchange money from governments simply by relying on the high-dimensional information they obtained. If they are lucky, they will even meet the needs of the second half of their lives.
Even among those who have not yet come to this world but have the wishes and opportunities to go, more and more people have the idea that after they go to the Star Gate, they just want to make money, rather than pursuing higher and farther-going to the second world, and even looking for a more distant unknown.
Fang Yu couldn't help but think that perhaps this was the reason why Miss Scappe and Mr. Quelorde thought they were strange. Callers like those of the pioneers in the past have become less and less in this era. The free callers who go to the second world through their own efforts are simply like whimsical thoughts.
Not to mention individuals, even fewer guilds like Tapolis are getting fewer and fewer, and there are only one or two examples in ten years. However, at that time, people at least had some expectations. After the Super Athletic League further narrowed the living space of free-selected players, the possibility of this was almost less and less. Just look at the situation of the Oak Knights today and you will understand.
Perhaps this is true. The decision of the Super Athletic League this time will cause such a big stir among the free callers.
Even if there is little hope, there is still a glimmer of hope. However, if this possibility is completely cut off, the result will be too desperate and suffocating to ordinary candidates. Even if this opportunity may have nothing to do with most people, they can still feel the same bone-broken chill.
The turmoil in the southern border was not known until it lasted. Even in the north of the kingdom, it seemed that the integration of the Flores and the Rainbow Alliance was not smooth.
Thinking of this, Fang Yu couldn't help but look at the Sandy Night walking in front of him. The latter was also falling behind and came to him, saying without looking back: "Don't look at the title of the Dragon Alchemist is more well-known. But in the North, your experience in Dorifin is more legendary. After all, most people have heard of that story and even experienced that illusion."
Fang Rong believed that one of the three major ‘copies’ of Kaorin-Ishurien was rewarded and contained such a tortuous and bizarre story. As long as the candidates in the North have the ability, they would probably choose to go there.
However, the illusion has been broken by him, and this so-called "copy" no longer exists. He still doesn't know whether he will become the public enemy of the Northern Selectors because of this, but he did not expect others to regard it as a legend.
Saya was not surprised to hear his words: "It is true that I didn't think so, but that was just a few. No matter how generous the rewards of Dorifin's illusion are, they are just the level of general adventure. The adventurers association has a task, how could it be that less than this illusion? Most people who can become the caller still have a sense of justice in their hearts - you may not know how great the favor you did in Dorifin is for the entire northern border. You must know that thirty years are not far away, and the relatives and close friends of many people in the surrounding area of Dorifin are trapped in the fire of the past."
She paused: "The witnesses of that year are only old and have not yet passed away. The bad news of the past may still remain in their memory. When someone personally relieves the illusion and calms the resentment of the dead souls, you can imagine how those who are related to it will view all this. The reaction of the indigenous people responded sincerely to the callers who stayed here, so they are almost all beneficiaries of your behavior."
Fang Yu was a little embarrassed to be praised. They were actually just trying to get out of trouble. Su Changfeng actually said similar things to him, but he didn't expect it to be exaggerated to this extent.
However, he recalled what happened in Varik. The people from Elpaxin almost turned against him for the sake of him and the consul sent by the royal family. This can also be seen. The beauty of human kindness is that the gratitude is that they give back to each other, allowing the fire to be preserved, and making him feel a little proud of his original choice.
Saya looked back at him: "But more importantly, there are many minstrels who are willing to sing your stories, because somewhere is said, Dorifin's illusion is proven to be related to the dragon witch and the holy sword Galapea. People say it is clear that there are witnesses of the incident that year to testify for it - many clues gathered to the traveler's rest, because you have stayed there for a while, and still people have come to find the 'legendary deeds'."
When Fang Ling heard this, she couldn't help but think of Mazak and the president of the Black Goat Chamber of Commerce. The only witnesses who were the ones who were watching the past were in addition to the Knight Dictor. The witnesses of the incident came out to testify for it - was it the former owner of the traveler's rest?
But what was the other party's intention to highlight their experience in Dorifin? It should have no meaning to increase their reputation among the conveners and indigenous peoples for the Seven Seas Brigade, especially in his perception, Mazak does not seem to be a person who is keen on this.
"Because your story in Dorifin is widely circulated in the northern border, you have gained a lot of reputation among the people," Saya's words seemed to confirm his idea. "I can guess your identity, but there is actually this reason. But you don't have to worry too much, that's because we have met you twice and have seen you take action. People with the Spear of the Silver Forest outside may not be able to recognize you."
Fang Yu nodded slightly, and he also guessed that there was a reason, so he didn't seem very nervous at the beginning.
Saya said again: "Although you are being wanted, there are also many people who praise you, especially in this place. I have not disclosed your identities to others, otherwise it will probably attract onlookers."
Fang Yu was a little speechless, thinking that it was that exaggerated?
But he felt that the look from the janitor's curious and respectful look, and suddenly he felt that perhaps the other party was not joking, but the only question now was how did the minstrels promote their deeds?
Of course, as a young man, he still enjoys such a look.
However, his true masterpiece was still in Fenris. There were very few discussions about the incident community, because the military and the Super Athletics League tacitly blocked all relevant news and did not allow people to discuss the inside story at that time.
Of course, the military is trying to protect him, and the Super Athletic League doesn't know what it is. People are guessing in private who the alchemist was, and there are many comparisons between him and the "unidentified" alchemist.
The results of the comparison are quite large, but most of them are posts with insufficient evidence. What makes Fang Yu a little amused is that most people do not agree with the statement that the Dragon Alchemist and Fenris's Savior are the same person. The reason is also very simple, because the community has very strict restrictions on all related posts, and discussions are almost prohibited, but discussions on the comparison of the identities of the two are not prohibited.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! Following the opposite idea, we conclude that the two cannot be the same person.
This simple and crude logic is very convincing to ordinary people.
However, this matter is of great importance. Fang Rong didn't know how many clues the Flor's descendants had mastered, and whether they had inferred his identity. Those who had more information did not speak and remained silent tacitly, but he always felt that someone might have guessed who he was.
At that time, the military cut off the signal from his entry into the pyramid to the end of his confrontation with the Lizard God, which made the conversation between him and Silweid, who was most likely to be exposed, but at least a few places received that signal.
These include the royal family of Kaurin-Ishurien, and the Craftsman Association.
The military's statement is to protect the suspect - he learned this statement from Alice, and the suspect is naturally her. For the same reason, the outside world does not know what role the twin sister played at that time.
Fang Yu was not sure if the Flores had also obtained this image. If they had mastered this fact, it would be possible to infer his identity.
However, when neither party made any statement, he felt that it would be better to remain silent, especially for Toragotos and the Bailong Cult, not knowing that he was still alive, which was a guarantee of safety for him.
So even though it was a pity, he still kept this secret.
Thinking of this, Fang Yu couldn't help but touch his chest with his hand. The mitral mask attached there was one of his biggest secrets.
Sha Ye did not notice his subtle movements, and after the rangers entered the room one by one, Fang Yu saw the situation inside with the help of the firelight outside. It was like an abandoned house, with no furniture or utensils in the empty room, and all the doors of the room were sealed, with only a long and narrow passage.
The passage did not lead to the back of the house, but to the underground. The rangers walking in front seemed to have become accustomed to entering and leaving the passage. Without hesitation, they walked down the stairs there, disappearing one by one.
"Where is this going?" Fang Yu asked in that direction.
"This passage leads to the outside of the city," Saya looked behind him and replied, where the gatekeeper was closing the wooden door of the room outside. The light in the room became darker and darkened again. "The Crow Claw Knights searched for this place later. They may find this passage. This passage can only be abandoned in the future. But nothing, this is just a backup route for us."
Fang Yu was a little stunned when he heard this. From these words, he could hear that the conflict between Sa Ye and the Crow Claw Temple was far from as simple as it seemed - at least it did not break out by chance. Judging from the other party's appearance, they were prepared for it.
This means that the conflict may be long-term.
He couldn't help but be very curious about what had happened during the period when they left Idris and came here.
Moreover, is there really no problem with the other party just telling him this?
Saya seemed to see what he thought, and then said, "Don't worry, since I invite you to come, I won't hide anything. Since Xiaokong is willing to believe you, then I can choose to believe you."
Fang Yu was stunned for a moment and couldn't help asking: "So what happened to the Oak Knights?"
"That's from you-" Saya paused for a moment and changed his words: "Since Yugudora and the others split, the Knights were divided into two after that. Yugudora and the others had a high prestige among the Knights, so most of the people who followed them, even included two elite brigades."
Listening to the other party mentioning this, Fang Yu couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Although he didn't know what Saya would think when she mentioned this matter, he thought he should have some resentment - the Seven Seas Brigade experienced the division of Tapolis, and although he did not intervene, in the eyes of the people on the other side, they should be considered as being with Yugudora and others?
After all, it can be heard from the other party’s initial change of speech.
But Saye walked in the dark corridor, his expression and tone seemed very calm, as if he was telling something that had nothing to do with him: "During that period, the Knights' situation was very poor, but after all, he reached an agreement with the Rainbow Alliance - in fact, it was negotiated with the people of Silver Forest Spear, so we joined the Alliance - after having an investor, he joined the Rainbow Alliance. With Tapolis' original fame, the Guild had more or less recovered some vitality."
"I don't really want to talk about the other side," she replied. "After those people left, they had nothing to do with us. They used their Oak Knights, and we used our name to have two Tapolis for a while. After that, the senior management urgently arranged a group of newcomers from the youth training camp to enter Aitalia. Xiaokong joined at that time. Later, we took these newcomers to Beikaolin for training, and at that time we met you all in Idris-"
Her tone suddenly calmed down: "But we didn't expect that shortly after we left the North, several major events happened to the guild."
