"Then, who can do this?" Fang Plover asked. The hall suddenly became quiet and seemed lonely and empty.
"Not everyone can enter there, Ed," Ye Hua said without warning. His eyes had been falling on that person, and now he turned back and looked at Fang Plover. "But you and I can."
"And me," the man replied calmly, "Your Highness the Princess can do it too."
As he spoke, he looked at Princess Rupert.
A small sound of discussion was like a breeze blowing across the lake, causing ripples.
People asked suspiciously: "Her Royal Highness the Princess?" "Is it possible that there is such a big Questak, and everyone in the Cassan Palace can't find a second choice?"
Aleph was also a little confused. His Royal Highness the Prince stood up from his seat and asked: "Why Rupert, can't I? I am also a member of the Penelope family, If I have to go to that dangerous situation, I am willing to go instead of Sister Wang."
"This has nothing to do with members of the royal family, Your Highness," Ye Hua shook his head, "Cang Zhihui will select different soul qualities, and only a few are suitable. But after all, this is a method found from the notes of the late princess. Perhaps It is a destiny, and Her Royal Highness the Princess is just the right person."
Aleph opened his mouth and was about to say something else. But Princess Rupert had turned back, "Aleph, you stay."
"But--"
She looked at him with emerald green eyes, her eyes a little quiet. "My father asked you to stay here, and I will go to that place, thank you, Aleph. But we each perform our respective duties, all for the sake of Istania, this ancient land, and its people. "
Aleph took a breath, then reluctantly took back his words and nodded slightly. He looked at Fang Plover again. Although he didn't speak, the meaning in his eyes was obviously asking him to help take care of his Sister Wang.
Fang Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly. He didn't seem to agree yet. But everyone seems to naturally regard themselves as heroes, which may also be a kind of distress. He just asked himself, would he be willing to join the party? The answer Bishop Farris told him was already in his heart.
What is the ideal he is pursuing? Perhaps the aura of the forerunners is exactly what people regard as 'right' and 'duty'. And who doesn't have the age of seventeen to follow the justice and passion in his heart and the dream of the distant hero.
It may sound a bit out of place, but he feels that he is doing the right thing, and this feeling is actually just right.
Princess Rupert looked at the man: "This gentleman..."
"You can call me Star," the other party replied calmly, "or Lavak."
"Star..." Rupert muttered this somewhat strange name carefully, and Lavak was exactly the meaning of 'star' in Istanian.
A deep light flashed in Fang Yu's eyes. Xing was indeed this person, the former founder and grand leader of Dawn Star. However, the opponent's face looked weathered. At the time of the Battle of Bain, he was already in his thirties and close to retirement. Was it because of the accident that he stayed here for ten years?
He should have formed Dawn Star earlier. Perhaps the other party was still in its prime at that time, which was about twenty years ago. But how did the other party change from being a victim to being what the military calls a 'wandering alchemist'?
The eldest princess might admit the wrong person, but the Stargate Port would never. Fang Yu couldn't help but feel a strong curiosity in his heart, knowing that there was definitely a secret hidden in it. More importantly, it may even be related to Captain Quirod and Miss Scarpet.
The eldest princess pondered for a moment before speaking: "Mr. Lavac, are there any preparations needed to go to that world?"
Star shook his head. "anytime."
Rupert nodded, "Mr. Rawak, please give me a moment." She then faced Aleph and Ms. Erna beside her: "Elna, Aleph, come with me."
The two were slightly startled, and then did as they were told.
Fang Yu knew that Her Royal Highness the Princess needed some time to explain the arrangements here. Although they went to another world to fight against the incarnation of Descartes, this did not mean that the crisis in Questak had been resolved.
Danger surrounds the outside, and the monster summoned by Descartes may attack Kashan Palace at any time, especially when its body is threatened. Although the palace has reinforcements, how to let the people from the Craftsmen Association play their maximum role? In this regard, Aleph, the future crown prince, obviously has far less experience than his eldest sister.
Only by protecting the palace can they safely confront the blind god Descart in another world.
And he actually has a lot of things to arrange with other people in the Seven Seas Brigade——
This trip is about to fight against a god. No one knows what will happen. The other party may even have various means to steal their starlight. The ability to resurrect is so fragile in such a battle, and no one can guarantee that they can return safely.
Logically speaking, any elector should think twice before taking action in such a dangerous situation. Everyone also expressed concern, especially Jita, who frowned and whispered to him: "Brother Ed, you must be careful."
Fang Yu patted her shoulder to reassure her.
He listened quietly to his own heartbeat, which was steady and stable. There was not much fear or surprise in his heart. It was probably because he had experienced too much and was already a little numb.
"Take care." Luo Yu said concisely.
Even the box came over, looked at him, and said, "Captain, how about I share some of the starlight with you?"
"How do you tell the difference?" Fang Yu was greatly surprised, thinking when did this guy learn the unique skills between him and Miya.
As a result, this question overwhelmed the middle school boy. He thought about it carefully and said that he wanted to study this issue.
Finally, there was Parker, who said carelessly: "If you can't come back, I will be the leader."
As a result, Luo Hao took him away by the neck.
In the end, only he and Sylvide were left. The ship officer smiled lightly and said nothing.
Fang Yu was a little surprised: "Aren't you worried at all?"
Sylvide smiled: "Miss Tata is taking care of you over there, so I have nothing to worry about."
Somehow, Fang Yu always felt that there was something in his words, and he felt bad.
And when the noble lady left, Tata's voice came from the bottom of his heart: "Mr. Knight, I think she is right."
Right where is it? Fang Yu was a little speechless, Miss Tata, you have changed too.
But after a while, Tata suddenly asked softly: "What has changed about me, Mr. Knight?"
Fang Yu was startled, and then he realized that he and the other party were connected spiritually. He paused for a moment before replying: "Maybe... he has become more humane."
For some reason, Fang Yu suddenly saw Miss Goblin smiling slightly in her inner world.
…
Although he said he wanted to warn everyone, when things came to a close, Fang Yu suddenly realized that he actually had nothing to say.
There are two people in the brigade, Sylvide and her cousin, one is shrewd and the other is smart, both of them have great minds - even if Miss Attila is not here, she can arrange things in the group in an orderly manner, so why do we need him?
He suddenly felt that as the leader of the group, he was really a mascot. In fact, he didn't have to do anything. He just kept his head down and rushed forward. After thinking about this, I couldn't help but feel a little bored for a while.
Seeing that he couldn't intervene and the eldest princess hadn't returned yet, he walked out of Kashan Palace in boredom. Regarding the matter of Cang Zhihui, he has always been a little confused in his heart.
He got the news about this matter not much earlier than the eldest princess. He asked Pasha, Parker and Alfond to take Afifah to seek help from Delan, but he did not expect that the other party could really cure her. Not only that, the other party also told him through the communication crystal that there was a way to deal with Descartes' incarnation.
But when he arrived at this place, Fang Yu discovered that not only De Lan and the two of them, Ye Hua also seemed to know about this matter and about that world. But before that, the Ranger King had not mentioned a word to him.
According to Xing's description, the notebook was given to the princess for safekeeping by the princess's brother, the great explorer of the Istanians. The latter deciphered some contents from the notes and told the secret to her. Babartan, King of Sand.
But there is no specific mention of Cang Zhihui, the blind god Deska, and the information about the current world. Fang Yu always felt that these people concealed some key information from him. These concealments may not be called deception, but they always made him feel that he could not grasp something important.
The feeling of being neither up nor down made him feel a little uncomfortable for a while.
He planned to ask Ye Hua personally about this issue later. He guessed that if he took the initiative to speak, the other party might not deliberately avoid the matter.
But when he walked out of the palace, Fang Plover discovered that there was already a person on the terrace. He was slightly startled, and after taking a closer look, he realized that the frail figure on the back was not Afifa.
It turned out that when no one was paying attention, the mystic lady actually walked out of the palace alone.
He covered his missing right arm and staggered over with some loss of balance. Afifa's face was as white as snow, and he looked like he was just recovering from a serious illness. He seemed to be distracted and didn't notice anyone approaching at all. He just stared blankly ahead.
There, beyond a palm grove, was the devastated inner city, and further away, the outer city where the fire was still spreading. The thick smoke rising into the sky seemed to be connected with the billowing dark clouds in mid-air.
The sky was pregnant with dense dark red light, surging unnervingly.
"Miss Afifah?"
Afifah was so frightened that she let out a cute "Ah", turned around quickly, blinked her big moist eyes, and realized it was him. Then she breathed a sigh of relief and said with a bit of complaint: "You scared me to death, Captain Ed."
Fang Yu was a little innocent and asked: "What are you looking at, so lost in thought?"
"Nothing?" Afifah shook his head, turned back, still staring into the distance, "I was just thinking, Captain Ed, do I really belong here, do I belong to this world?"
Fang Yu was slightly startled and looked at the other party in surprise. He suddenly thought of something and asked, "Do you know?"
The girl nodded slightly. "Mr. Deland told me, and then I understood my true origin. My parents and my past were all illusory, like a dream."
"If it's a dream," Fang Yu didn't know how to comfort the other party for a while, but he just felt that Delan didn't actually need to tell the truth, although the truth was sometimes important. But how cruel this is to a young girl, "That's also a real dream."
"It is indeed true, because after all, I am here, Captain Ed can see and hear it; I can also see Captain Ed, and I can touch the world," Afifah smiled slightly, "Captain Ed, the eldest princess must have told you about her mother, right?"
She turned back with a glimmer of expectation in her eyes: "Am I similar to her?"
Fang Yu nodded: "The eldest princess did say that the princess is a very outstanding woman," he paused, "but the eldest princess also told me that you are not similar to her mother at all."
"In terms of excellence?" After Afifah finished speaking, she covered her mouth and smiled playfully.
"In all aspects."
"Thanks."
"I didn't lie to you, Afifa." Fang Plion said quickly.
"I know, Captain Ed," Afifah said with a soft smile: "I want to ask you a question, Captain Ed."
Fang Plover was startled. "You ask."
The girl smoothed the hair around her ears with her hands, turned her eyes, and asked, "How can I become a real person, Captain Ed?"
This question pierced into Fang Plover's psychology like an arrow.
He felt a little uncomfortable for a moment, and suddenly complained about Delan, thinking that the other party should not have discussed this issue with her.
But he pondered for a moment, "You are a real person, Miss Afifah. If you don't tell us your origin, no one will think that you are any different from others."
"But I mean, that kind of ordinary, ordinary girl."
Fang Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly. Some people desperately want to be unique and one among ten thousand, but some people just want to pursue becoming ordinary, ordinary girls.
"Ordinary has its benefits, and uniqueness has its own charm. Besides, everyone should be unique, and who is truly ordinary?" Fang Yu thought for a moment before answering seriously, "In our opinion, you It’s you, let me tell you a secret——”
Afifah's eyes froze for a moment, looking at him curiously, and asked: "What's the secret?"
"There is a fool in our team. Ever since he saw you for the first time, he has been unable to extricate himself from falling into the trap carefully woven by the goddess Elaine." Fang Yu decided to help a certain Papalar, not to mention It might be good for this self-pitying girl to talk about this topic now. "You should have seen him. He is short. Although he is a bit hopeless, he is at least a good person..."
Nothing in this world is more important than having someone care about you. Perhaps it is each other's needs that build the bridge between people.
Sure enough, two red clouds flew onto the girl's cheeks. Elaine is the goddess of fate and the weaver of the thread of love. This goddess's trap has a specific use in Aitaria.
Afifah naturally understood.
She was a little shy, but also a little happy and said: "It's Mr. Parker, right? Please thank him for me. It feels good to be liked by others."
As she spoke, she lowered her head and blinked quietly to prevent tears from falling.
Fang Yu didn't notice this scene. He couldn't help but sigh after hearing it. He naturally heard the girl's euphemistic meaning and thought that Parker might have no chance.
But forget it, let him work alone for a while. Anyway, this guy is full of energy and has nothing to do all day long.
…
Afifah returned to the hall with some red circles under her eyes, and Fang Yu discovered that Princess Rupert had returned, and everyone else was also ready.
The people he had known in the city over the past few days, including the knights of the Marlan Temple, the clergy, Bishop Farris, and even Alfonde and Miss Lavalli, also came up to say goodbye to them one by one.
The earl's daughter even gave him a rare good look, asking him to be more careful and protect Her Royal Highness, and then ran to Jita alone.
But Fang Yu always felt that the way the other person looked at him always seemed to have a feeling that it was best not to come back.
After a short farewell, the people in the hall left one by one under Aleph's arrangement. Aleph was the last one to come up and express their respect to each other. His Royal Highness the Prince gave Fang Plover a hug.
"Be careful," he said, "remember the Star Ceremony, everything will pass, and the light of the stars will rise again."
Fang Plover nodded lightly.
After Aleph left, he, Ye Hua, Her Royal Highness the Princess and the man named 'Xing' were the only ones left in the hall, as well as Ms. Erna who had not yet had time to leave.
Erna glanced at them, and finally her eyes fell on him. The genie woman thought for a moment, then gave up the nonsense and simply said: "The monsters outside are already ready to move. If they start to attack, we can support it for about an hour."
"One hour is all you have left."
"That's enough," Xing replied, "If it succeeds, it won't take an hour. If it fails, no matter how much time it takes, it will be meaningless."
Erna nodded after hearing this, and then withdrew.
Xing looked at everyone and said to them: "Now put your hands on the Emerald Star. Anyone who meets the conditions will be automatically transported to that world."
Princess Rupert was the first to reach out her hand. She tested it, and then covered the crystal with her hand.
Then Ye Hua, then Xing.
Finally, Fang Plover took a gentle breath.
And the moment he put his hand up, he seemed to hear a voice coming from the side. "Be careful, don't be distracted. There may be a small impact, but there should be no danger to you." That was Ye Hua's voice.
The moment the sound sounded, Fang Plover felt a sense of dizziness.
