After listening to the conversation of these "players", Jiang Fei grasped two important pieces of information.
The first was that the "tycoon player" Eron had already arrived in the Five Worlds, and had even obtained a True Immortal vessel!
The second was that these "players" who had infiltrated the Martial Hall with the identity of the Xiao family would not make a move on the Saintess for a short period of time. They would wait for Eron to arrive before taking action.
"Sigh! I wonder if our resistance will be of any use … "Jiang Fei sighed in his heart. At the same time, the sense of superiority he felt from his advancement had vanished.
Originally, after Jiang Fei had advanced to the True Immortal level, he had a sense of pride in his heart. After all, the True Immortal level was a symbol of invincibility, whether in the Five Worlds or in the outside universe. However, this invincibility was nothing in front of the "Game Development Team" in the Gamma Dimension. They only needed a few sets of data to erase the consciousness of such a top-notch expert, turning him into a tool for the "players" to entertain!
Thinking of this, Jiang Fei even felt a little helpless for a moment. If not for an existence like Velon who could support him, Jiang Fei would have even wanted to give up.
Velon was indeed an extremely special existence. He was developed by the "Game Development Team" in the Gamma Dimension to help them manage Jiang Fei's universe. Therefore, they had a lot of trust in Velon. This was a little similar to the relationship between Jiang Fei and 0541.
However, Velon possessed self-awareness and knew that he would also disappear after this universe was destroyed. Therefore, he had the idea of resisting. Therefore, he sought out Jiang Fei because he knew that Jiang Fei's 10th Dimension was the only hope to break out of this certain death situation.
Therefore, Velon had always been guiding and protecting Jiang Fei. On one hand, it allowed Jiang Fei to continuously grow stronger. On the other hand, it also helped Jiang Fei avoid the surveillance of the "Development Team". The goal was for Jiang Fei to save this universe, so that this universe that was destined to perish could finally survive, so that he could also survive.
Although Jiang Fei did not know what Velon's deeper thoughts were, they were in the same boat when it came to protecting the universe. Therefore, Jiang Fei had always been following the path that Velon had provided.
Sometimes, Jiang Fei even thought that it would be great if he did not know anything about the "players" and the Gamma Dimension. In that case, he could live a carefree and happy life with the girls. Until one day, when the universe was destroyed, they would suddenly die together without any worries. At least they would not be as tired as they were now, running for their lives all day long.
Sometimes, Jiang Fei even forgot how he spent his previous life. Just two or three years ago, he was still a carefree high school student. Although he did not stand out in class at all, it was as if he was invisible, that peaceful time was something that he would never have the chance to enjoy even in his dreams.
"Damn it! It's not fun being an NPC and being played by others! " Jiang Fei shook his head vigorously. Although he felt a little helpless, he still had to live. Although the chances of victory were slim, he could not just sit around and wait for death. He had to fight for what he had to fight for, not to mention the right to live!
After leaving the Xiao Family's encampment, Jiang Fei urged the girls to make the most of their time and study, because he knew that there was not much time left in the Five Skies. When Edmund arrived at the Martial Hall, the final battle would begin!
If they could successfully stop the "players" from assassinating them in this battle, then they would be able to buy time to save the universe. If the "players" completed the mission, then the "players" who received the reward would trigger the bug that Velon spoke of, and ultimately cause the entire universe to collapse.
Knowing that time was of the essence, the girls were also working hard to learn. They knew that only by becoming stronger would they have the ability to fight alongside Jiang Fei. Otherwise, they might not even be qualified to die alongside Jiang Fei on the battlefield.
Time flew, and the second wave of the Xiao family's envoys finally arrived half a month later. This time, Jiang Fei, who was already prepared, did not even wait for the Xiao family to enter the Martial Hall before he got himself an errand.
This time, Jiang Fei acted as the assistant to welcome the Xiao family. He followed another True Immortal to the Martial Hall to welcome the Xiao family's envoys.
This True Immortal who was in charge was called Cai Dingguo. He was a very supportive of the marriage alliance, so he was sent by the Martial Hall Master to welcome the Xiao family's envoys.
"Brother Yuan, later on, you must be more polite to the Xiao family. I know you don't approve of this marriage alliance, but now that things have come to this, it's best not to hurt the Martial Hall's face." Cai Dingguo said to Jiang Fei. Although this person was also considered Jiang Fei's senior, because they were of the same rank, that person was also Jiang Fei's equal.
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!" Jiang Fei nodded. The errand he had requested was not to cause trouble, but to obtain firsthand information on those "players"!
The two of them waited outside the teleportation circle for a short while before dozens of sword flashes came rushing over from the horizon.
"They're here!" Cai Dingguo's spirit shook, and then he ordered the attendants behind him to play the drums.
This time, the Xiao family's envoys were different from before. Even the Xiao family's fourth young master would be personally present to welcome the bride, so the Martial Hall's reception was also different from before.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh … The sword flashes hovered in front of Jiang Fei and the others, after which a large number of experts walked down from their flying swords with smiles on their faces.
"Haha, brother Cai, how have you been!" The leader of the group smiled at Cai Dingguo. Obviously, the two of them were old acquaintances.
"Changfeng, I haven't seen you for so many years, but you're still as elegant as ever!" Cai Dingguo also said politely.
"Eh? How should I address you, brother? " Xiao Changfeng saw Jiang Fei next to Cai Dingguo at a glance. After all, they were all experts of the same rank, so it was difficult for him not to notice Jiang Fei.
"This is our Martial Hall's new envoys, Yuan Shao, the disciple of Ge Chunhong and Su Tianhua!" Cai Dingguo introduced.
"Oh, it's brother Yuan. It's an honor to meet you!" Xiao Changfeng gave Jiang Fei a fist salute. Although he sounded very polite, he actually did not know that Jiang Fei existed before this. The reason why he was so polite was partly because Jiang Fei was of the same rank as him, and partly because of Ge Chunhong and Su Tianhua.
"Master Xiao, you're too kind!" Jiang Fei also gave a fist salute, and casually said a few words of courtesy. However, he did not want to talk too much with Xiao Changfeng, not because Jiang Fei looked down on him, but because Jiang Fei's attention was currently focused on other people!
This time, there were a total of five "players" among the people from the Xiao family, and their strength was quite terrifying. They were all above the Tribulation Stage, and there were even two True Immortals among them!
