More than a dozen heavy trucks rushed forward, but they stopped at the outskirts of the city and watched from afar. They did not rush directly to the Ogham family's camp.
In the lead truck, Villette asked curiously, "Why don't we attack now? Aren't you worried that they will escape?"
"We have to wait for them to leave first before we attack." Li Xiang rolled his eyes at her speechlessly. Why did this senior, who was usually so smart, become a little stupid at this time? "Didn't I say that the Ogham family has a lot of magic users now? If we attack rashly, we won't be able to take them down even if Squad 169 is here. These magic users should be going to the teleportation circle with us. "
Villette nodded and did not say anything, but Li Xiang noticed that her hands were twitching slightly. She was so nervous that she was sweating.
Shizuko, who was hiding in the darkness not far away, was the same. She, who usually could easily hide herself, was panting heavily.
Li Xiang realized that the two of them were much more nervous than he thought.
After all, they were not people who walked on the edge of a knife all year round like Hunter at the border. Li Xiang suddenly remembered what Mili said before.
Was he too self-centered and did not take their feelings into consideration?
He only thought about the results and the conditions needed. He thought that they would get benefits that they had never had before if they followed him, but he did not consider that some things were not simple and easy for them.
Li Xiang sighed and thought about Ming Xu's little habit. Before she assassinated someone, she would deliberately use a small notebook to record the other party's last words. She did this because she was influenced by Li Xiang, but at that time, Li Xiang did not express any affirmation or suggestion to her.
He was unknowingly influencing others, and at the same time, he was far from good enough. He did not really see these friends as a team from the bottom of his heart.
"Senior Villette, this is for you." Li Xiang secretly put the heart-strengthening medicine into her hand. When he held her hand, he felt the sticky sweat on her hand. She was really nervous and scared.
After all, the opponent was also a powerful magic user.
"Yes." Villette nodded heavily, feeling a little more at ease. She knew that it was a heart-strengthening potion. It could be said to be a treasure that could save a life on the battlefield.
Lie Kong licked her lips with an excited expression. She was very battle-hungry, but she did not plan to use the wolf fang mark on her this time.
"When are we going to make a move?" She asked in a low voice as she observed the Ogheim family's camp from afar.
"Wait a little longer." Li Xiang, who could see through mechanical devices, could easily see some of the key figures blocked by countless defensive doors, especially Black Elephant who was inspecting the weapons and equipment in the warehouse.
After the battle at Blackstone Prisoner Town, the two of them went their separate ways. Black Elephant was also the first time he faced a Magician alone. Although his strength was suppressed to that of a Level-3 Magician's Apprentice, the enormous pressure was still fresh in his mind.
The one who took him away was the Black Flag Pterosaur, a giant creature raised by the Wessex Technology Company. However, he was kicked out by the Tarot Cards, so it was hard to say if the person who helped him behind the scenes in Wessex was a member of the Tarot Cards.
Also, according to the tone of L's letter, Black Elephant was more like a "gift" and a "whetstone" that he had arranged for Li Xiang. Killing him would allow him to evolve and level up. If he failed, he would die.
If L was really the mastermind, then Li Xiang's evaluation of him would be even higher.
Up until now, L had been able to easily infiltrate the Polar night, the Lighthouse Player University of Subcontinent, the Bai family, and Wessex. This ability was terrifying.
At least, Ye Futian's teacher, Night Shadow, could not do that.
Then, L's true identity was too terrifying.
"I hope not." Li Xiang sighed. L had clearly said that he knew about his and Ye Tong's background. If L's deduction was correct, then it meant that he had a more complicated relationship with those powerful forces.
This was not something he wanted to see.
Everything could only be revealed when Mysterious Man L officially met him.
In the distance, heavy trucks drove to the port one after another. In such a thick fog, the other camps of the aristocratic families had basically stopped working. Only they were still operating.
Li Xiang observed this group of people and counted the number and strength of the people who had left.
"Most of the magic users have left. Isn't the nest empty?" Hunting Sky chuckled. He could not hold back his excitement.
Not to mention the situation at the teleportation portal, as long as the Ogham family's camp was raided and the frozen bodies of the magic users were exposed, they would be in big trouble.
The magic users killed by the border killers came from all over the place. Many of them were descendants of aristocratic families or people who relied on them. Once exposed, the Ogham family would definitely become the target of public criticism.
As the person who exposed them, Ye Futian and the 169th squad would make a great contribution.
Li Xiang had been studying the [Border Regulations] for a long time. Ye Futian had also been studying it.
At the border, it did not mean that one would definitely grow old alone and die in battle.
There was also a slight chance that one could regain their freedom and leave this place.
However, that chance was limitless.
They had to make a great contribution that was recognized by the higher-ups.
The Five Sovereigns, Wessex, and Katas Zhao Fei were one of the three big powers.
Only then would they have the right to apply for freedom.
Exposing and stopping the betrayal of the human camp was recognized as a great contribution. However, it was too difficult and involved too many people.
General Shogun was known to almost everyone in the upper circle. He had a certain connection with the tarot cards and was still standing. This showed how difficult it was to obtain such a contribution.
Now, they were infinitely close to this great contribution under Li Xiang's lead.
"You're really cunning." Villette could not help but complain. Not only did this guy want to destroy their family's plan, he even wanted to take drastic measures.
Only people like them who did not have many restrictions would dare to be so crazy.
Their opponent was at least a super aristocratic family.
"All is fair in war." Li Xiang smiled.
"I don't understand. This doesn't benefit you much, right? Why do you have to do it?" Hunter Kong looked at Li Xiang. Villette and Shizuko Ise also did not understand.
Of course, Hunter Kong could understand a little. At least she knew Li Xiang's identity and situation, as well as his relationship with Andrea. However, this was still not the reason why he was determined to overthrow the Ogheim family.
Of course, Li Xiang would not say that his wish was to live a quiet life with his sister and the person he liked. This kind of life required a stable social environment. Therefore, he abhorred actions that divided the human camp.
This included his admiration for everyone at the border, his dislike for the tarot cards, and so on.
However, there was another point that only he knew. No one knew, and he had never mentioned it to anyone. It was a small thought that occasionally appeared in his mind.
After the final ranking competition, it was a small guess that was like a premonition.
It was illusory, but it was very likely to cause a huge uproar. Whether it was true or not, he had to strangle this little possibility in the cradle. He would not tolerate it!
Otherwise, the human race might suffer unprecedented losses because of one of his mistakes. It might even cause an unimaginable disaster. At that time, even someone like him who did not have any sense of responsibility for the human race would not be able to accept such an outcome.
Li Xiang looked up and saw that Black Elephant had also boarded the ship. The moment the steam roared, he waved his hand to attack.
