"Holy City... is it really so unbearable?" Shaja murmured, his eyes full of confusion and disbelief.
In her heart, Holy City is the origin of magic and a sacred temple that carries the mission of protecting mankind. But Chen Lang's words were like a sharp blade, tearing apart her knowledge of Holy City.
She knows better than anyone else that human beings may appear to be enjoying the scenery, but in fact they are already caught in the middle.
Sea Monster is invading, Dark Creature is raging, and all major Demon Clan forces are pressing closer, the living space of mankind is shrinking.
At such a critical moment, all mankind should work together and deal with the outside world as one, but if those in power only care about their own interests, how can mankind survive?
Chen Lang looked at the struggle in her eyes, smiled faintly, and said in a calm but direct tone, "These things are actually not difficult to verify. If I guessed correctly, you should have received the summoning order from Holy City, right?"
Shaja was silent for a moment, nodded slowly, without denying. "Yes... I received the summons order after Archangel Remiel and Raguel died in Dubai."
But, she never thought about going back.
In her opinion, nothing is more important than the research of Fusion Magic right now.
Although the forbidden curse is powerful, it is very rare after all. Not everyone can achieve it, and the resources required are extremely huge.
But Fusion Magic is different. As long as the theory is successfully studied and perfected, countless mages can break through the shackles of combat power, control more offensive methods, and even enhance the power of magic to achieve a surge in combat power.
This is the main reason why mankind has undergone a great transformation. It is the change she wholeheartedly wants to make for the world. She will never give up this hard-won achievement easily.
"If you really want to find out the truth, return to Holy City now and mention the matter of Fusion Magic, then you will know whether what I said is true." Chen Lang slowly suggested, without forcing her, and only gave her a chance to verify it in person.
Return to Holy City?
Right now, Fusion Magic is almost there, Feng Zhoulong just needs to improve it. Now she can go back.
Shaja suddenly raised his eyes to look at Chen Lang, a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes, and asked softly, "Aren't you afraid? If I choose to deal with you with them after I go back, wouldn't it be worth the loss?"
Shaja is not weak in strength. Although she is young, she still has considerable fighting power.
Once she returns to Holy City, she will instantly have the power of Fourteen Wings.
Chen Lang spread his hands with an indifferent expression. "There is nothing to be afraid of. If you really choose to side with Holy City, it only means that I have misjudged the person. The next time we meet, we will be enemies, and I will not be merciful towards my enemies."
These words may seem casual, but they hide his confidence.
Even if Shaja switches sides, with his current combat power, he may not be afraid of it.
He also knew in his heart that he was not sure about Shaja's choice.
Unlike Mo Fan in the original world, he had a friendship with Shaja. Although there was no deep bond between them, they lived and died together, and even went through Dark Plane together.
He came here mainly to see the research progress of Fusion Magic, and also to see her attitude.
At present, it seems that it is still within his acceptance range.
Shaja looked at Chen Lang's magnanimous eyes and knew that he was not lying. After a moment of silence, he asked again, "If... if you really overthrow Holy City, what will you do?"
Overthrow a rule and establish a new one?
However, Holy City is the origin of magic. If it is really bulldozed, then human beings will be in a state of waste.
Start over again?
Demon Clan may not give them such an opportunity.
"Go back to China and face Sea Monster." Chen Lang said without any hesitation.
Shaja's heart moved slightly, and he immediately said, "Among Holy City, not all Archangel are greedy for power. There are also many people who are already dissatisfied with the status quo and are waiting for new regulations to appear, eager to truly unite mankind and fight against the Demon Clan."
She never wanted to see human beings killing each other. Although he had not participated in the Dubai battle, he also knew that Super-level Mage suffered hundreds of losses, and Peak Mage and Forbidden Curse Mage lost nearly ten. Every loss of combat power was a loss of human confidence in fighting Demon Clan.
No matter which side wins this battle in the end, the loser is humanity.
"At least, new regulations will never appear until those stubborn Archangel are eliminated." Chen Lang said flatly. The root cause of Holy City's corruption lies in those top angels who control power and are stubborn. Unless they are completely eliminated, all changes will be empty talk.
Chen Lang's words, coupled with his proposal to return to Holy City to verify the truth, the resistance in her heart gradually dissipated.
She really wants to go back and see for herself whether the current Holy City has really become a tool of power as Chen Lang said, and whether it really ignores the life and death of human beings.
She turned to look at Feng Zhoulong, her tone filled with guilt and expectation. "Teacher, Fusion Magic's research has reached the final stage. I think you can successfully perfect it even if I am not here, right?"
Feng Zhoulong nodded quickly, then showed hesitation. "Yes, yes, but we completed this research together, so the credit cannot be attributed to me. Once this Fusion Magic comes out, it will definitely shock the entire magic world. You shouldn't miss this honor that belongs to you."
He is not greedy for fame, he just doesn't want Shaja's efforts to go to waste.
Shaja shook his head slightly and smiled calmly, "I haven't made much contribution. After all, it is the opportunity brought by this crisis and the improvement given to mankind by nature. If we had not encountered that special Sea Monster, we would not have been able to completely perfect the integration concept."
After a pause, a trace of determination flashed in her eyes. "The current situation is turbulent, and I should go back to complete my mission."
Feng Zhoulong Through the conversation between the two, he had already figured out the general context, and he couldn't help but feel filled with emotion.
He never thought that he could have such a "card", with Archangel of Holy City on one side, and the chief of the Asian Magic Association on the other, and he could also participate in Fusion Magic research that could change the destiny of mankind.
Such an experience would be enough for him to brag about for half his life when he goes out in the future.
Without too much effort, Feng Zhoulong nodded. "Okay, don't worry, you can go back. I will definitely improve Fusion Magic as soon as possible and live up to our efforts."
Shaja took a deep look at him, then looked at Chen Lang, nodded slightly, turned around and turned into a faint light, left the research room, and galloped away in the direction of Holy City.
After Shaja left, Chen Lang exchanged a few words with Feng Zhoulong, carefully asked about Fusion Magic's final improvement node, and specifically warned, "After the research is completed, don't make any announcements, come directly to Dubai to find me, I will give you absolute safety here, and also allow Fusion Magic to play its greatest role."
"Okay, Chief Chen, don't worry!" Feng Zhoulong responded quickly. With Chen Lang escorting him, he could complete the final research with peace of mind.
The most important thing is that the other party made a special trip to find him, which is enough to show that he attaches great importance to Fusion Magic!
Being young does not necessarily mean you have no sense of responsibility...
