Chapter 513
"In that one future, Ishgar's destruction accelerated even more rapidly, and those dragons, as if gone mad, were tearing Ishgar's land apart day and night."
Luo Ge's fists were clenched tight, as if an immense hatred toward this matter had burst forth from within his heart.
Anyone watching from the side would feel a measure of pity.
But as one who held a position of authority, Emerald Princess was hardly so easy to convince.
Although she had already decided in her heart to trust Luo Ge Cheney for the time being, she also turned her head to glance at Arcadios.
"Once the Shi Zhi Sect's magic power is fully charged, come notify me then........"
"I will gather all the keys of the Golden Twelve Palaces ahead of time."
Emerald Princess's face was expressionless—or rather, she was suppressing the excitement in her heart—as she took Arcadios and left directly.
Only Luo Ge Cheney was left standing in place, watching Emerald Princess's retreating back.
"It seems this Princess isn't the fool she is in the original work after all."
"Or rather, she had been suppressed by the Fapingyi Society for far too long, and only now has her true nature finally been revealed."
Lin Cheng, who was controlling all of this from afar, had the corners of his mouth lift slightly.
A smile appeared on his face; the situation now was very clear—Luo Ge had fabricated an earth-shattering lie.
He wanted to deceive Emerald Princess into successfully opening the Shi Zhi Sect, so that he could achieve the goal he desired.
And now, on the surface, Emerald Princess had chosen to believe Luo Ge Cheney.
But in her heart, she remained deeply wary of Luo Ge Cheney—or rather, she had only chosen to manipulate Luo Ge Cheney in order to achieve her own goals.
"Arcadios, what do you think of that man just now?"
"How much trust can we place in him?"
Emerald Princess stepped onto the stairs, each footfall upon them producing a ring of echoes.
"This subordinate believes he must be holding back some important information he has not told us."
"I feel there is not much about him that warrants our trust."
Arcadios thought it over carefully; although Luo Ge Cheney's words just now had shown no obvious flaws,
for some reason, Arcadios still trusted his own intuition deeply.
He believed that the earlier Luo Ge had not told them the whole truth.
According to what the man before them had said, the Shi Zhi Sect could summon ten thousand dragons from four hundred years ago.
And the appearance of these ten thousand dragons would allow Emerald Princess to truly possess the power to dominate every nation.
Let alone some cockroach-sized organization like the Fapingyi Society, even those feared otherworld people
had already become not so terrifying in Emerald Princess's eyes.
"Of course, once the Shi Zhi Sect has finished absorbing power,"
"take out the keys of the Golden Twelve Palaces, and with the power of a Stellar Spirit Mage, the door can be opened directly."
"And only a Stellar Spirit Mage who possesses the keys of the Golden Twelve Palaces—only the Stellar Spirit Mage who opens the door—can control these ten thousand dragons."
"Otherwise, I'm afraid one would be torn apart on the spot."
A smile appeared on Luo Ge's face, and he slowly reached out to stroke the Shi Zhi Sect.
But many things, Luo Ge had not explained clearly to Emerald Princess.
He had only told Emerald Princess the results and changes that would occur after the Shi Zhi Sect was opened.
"How can I trust you? Or rather, what benefit is there for you in telling me all this?"
Emerald Princess was no fool either; her eyes narrowed slightly as she looked at the Luo Ge before her.
For her, what she was more concerned with at this moment was not how to imagine controlling the dragons' power,
but how to think, how to grasp this situation more quickly.
"I am the Mage of the Sword Bite Tiger, Dragon Slayer Mage Luo Ge Cheney; the Princess may go and verify it."
"But I myself have come from a distant thirty years in the future. Having personally witnessed the deaths of all my friends and family, I had no choice but to find every possible way to survive in that age of ten thousand dragons, and at last I found a method to return to the past."
"I believe that if Emerald Princess opens this door, she will surely be able to control the dragons well."
"Because even if Emerald Princess does not open it, someone else will in the future."
The faintly dark smile on Luo Ge's face gradually faded, replaced by a comparatively more solemn expression.
At the same time, his countenance also became very solemn and pained, as if that sorrow were not put on at all.
"You mean to say that in the future, it was not I who opened the door, but another person—is that right?"
The doubts and perplexity in Emerald Princess's heart had largely dissipated thanks to Luo Ge's lie.
"Correct. Lucy Heartfilia of Fairy Tail is the culprit behind the future age of ten thousand dragons."
"She destroyed all of Ishgar; that is one of the futures."
"In another future, I stopped Lucy Heartfilia, but the Shi Zhi Sect still opened."
"In that one future, Ishgar's destruction accelerated even more rapidly, and those dragons, as if gone mad, were tearing Ishgar's land apart day and night."
Luo Ge's fists were clenched tight, as if an immense hatred toward this matter had burst forth from within his heart.
Anyone watching from the side would feel a measure of pity.
But as one who held a position of authority, Emerald Princess was hardly so easy to convince.
Although she had already decided in her heart to trust Luo Ge Cheney for the time being, she also turned her head to glance at Arcadios.

"It seems this Princess isn't the fool she is in the original work after all."
"Or rather, they've been suppressed by the Fapingyi Society for too long, and only now have they finally revealed their true nature."
Lin Cheng, who was controlling everything from a distance, curved his lips into a slight smile.
A smile appeared. The situation now was very clear: Luo Ge had fabricated an earth-shattering lie.
He wanted to deceive the Jade Princess into successfully opening the Eclipse Gate, so that he could achieve his own desired goal.
And now, on the surface, the Jade Princess had chosen to believe Luo Ge Cheney.
But in her heart, she remained extremely wary of Luo Ge Cheney—or rather, she was merely choosing to manipulate Luo Ge Cheney in order to achieve her own purpose.
"Arcadius, what do you think of that man just now?"
"How much can we trust him?"
The Jade Princess walked up the steps, each footfall producing a ring of echoes.
"Your subordinate believes he must be hiding some important information from us."
"I don't think there's much about him that warrants our trust."
Arcadius thought it over carefully. Although Luo Ge Cheney's words just now had shown no obvious flaws,
for some reason, Arcadius still firmly trusted his own intuition.
He believed that the earlier Luo Ge had not told them the whole truth.
