All this time, Hunter had claimed that his wolf fang mark was left by a borderline mutant werewolf in a battle last year, but in reality, it was an innate mark!
Only her mother and her knew the truth, and Andrea would never betray her.
This meant that Hestria came to this conclusion on her own, and combined with the fact that she also had a similar mark, Hunter could only nod dejectedly.
Fortunately, Hestria belonged to the Rose Maids like her mother and was considered one of them. Otherwise, if this secret was exposed, there would be no place for Hunter to hide in the seven continents.
However, judging from her tone just now, Li Xiang was the same!
But when he jumped into her mother's bath that day, there was no trace of disaster or mutant on his body.
"Do you know why mutants and disasters can never be brought to the table in the seven continents?" Hestria looked at Werther in disgust. "It's not just because we're on opposite sides."
"Could it be … Could it be the White King?" Hunter finally understood many things and asked in fear and trembling.
Hestria nodded silently.
"That's right. Many of the people exiled to the border did not commit any major crimes, but they were strictly ordered not to return to the seven continents. It's because of the high and mighty White King. He personally ordered that any mutant or disaster humans are forbidden to walk in the light. "
She gently touched the wound on her lower abdomen. Even she was forbidden to enter any important numbered cities.
Looking at her eyes, Li Xiang understood. Even someone as strong as Hestria had many restrictions, let alone non-players like them.
"So, the so-called [problematic] exiles at the border are all because of this reason? Just because they have the aura of the disaster camp? Even people like me and Hunter who are not willing can't step into the important places of the seven continents? "Li Xiang frowned. Such a strict and heartless order made him feel even worse about the White King.
This was clearly a dictatorship.
"Regarding this ban, countless people have already violated it with their lives, and the White King has always responded with a thunderous blow. Therefore, it is now tacitly acknowledged by the Seven Continents, and very detailed laws will soon be introduced. There are various regulations for disaster-type, mutant players, magic users, and ordinary people. From their basic necessities to their daily lives, everything must be closely monitored. "
Hestria glanced at them and sneered. "What's funny is that the White King thinks this is mercy to us. However, his hatred for this kind of people is very real. Even if it is the Bai Family, once they are found to have this kind of problem, they will be mercilessly sent to the border or secretly executed. "
Li Xiang and Hunting Kong finally understood why the people at the border were so desperate. Even though they worked so hard to contribute to the human camp, they still could not escape the fate of death. So this was the crux of the problem!
The White King had never intended to let them go.
Recalling the three towering statues in City 0010, the White King's eyes judged everyone like a god without a trace of emotion. From the beginning to the end, he was not the god of the people at the border, but the judge above their heads.
No wonder there were people who tried so hard to hide their disaster bloodline. Now, all the trust that the Five Kings had built for him was based on the premise that he was a human, and if this condition collapsed …
King Dong Ling wanted to help him deal with the aftermath of this disaster heart and asked him to hide it from the White King. So this was what he meant.
Even if he had the blood of the Bai Family, the White King would not tolerate this!
Li Xiang suddenly raised his head and looked at Hestria.
He himself had recently learned the truth through Honey's black technology research. How did she know?
"Don't look at me. I also heard about it from Lord Night Shadow. Anyway, it's fine as long as you know what's going on. This is a ticking time bomb. Even if this little girl can successfully leave the border, with this identity, she won't be able to walk around normally, let alone enter a university to study. "Hestria smiled teasingly and looked at Li Xiang ambiguously.
Li Xiang's cheeks turned slightly red, knowing that she also knew some of his little tricks.
This was going to be troublesome …
"Study in a university?" Hunting Kong looked at them in confusion and asked.
Hestria pursed her lips and smiled, ignoring Li Xiang's winks and replied with a smile, "You still don't know? This little boyfriend of yours, in order to make up for some small mistakes in the previous matter, is trying his best to fight for a relatively free right for you and Squad 169. He even proposed to let you enter a player's university to study after leaving the border. He will pay for all the expenses. "
Hunting Kong could hear the teasing in Hestria's words and the words "little boyfriend" in her words. His cheeks suddenly turned as red as a ripe apple, and he did not dare to look at Li Xiang's face.
Li Xiang was embarrassed. He had hidden this matter very well, and he had secretly instructed Felios in private. How did Hestria find out in the blink of an eye?
Hestria mercilessly teased the two of them before saying seriously, "Anyway, it's good that you understand. Even the Tower of Chronology's Scholar has no ability to help you do this. Lord Felios has his own troubles, and the most he can do is give your little girlfriend some credit. But once she returns to the Seven Continents, her identity as a mutant will be exposed. Where else can she go? Still thinking about going to a university? "
After listening to Hestria's narration, Li Xiang sighed. "I was too naive."
"Here." Hestria turned on her communicator and placed it on the ground. A projection suddenly appeared. It was Night Shadow, who was still in the bathroom with a bath towel draped over her shoulders.
Under the white bath towel, her graceful and moving figure was especially enchanting. Her spring scenery was faintly discernible, causing Lie Kong to blush again.
Thinking that she was the master that his mother valued the most, Hunting Kong felt his legs go soft and he almost fell to his knees.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Li Xiang, you little bastard!" Night Shadow's cold and arrogant demeanor was gone. He almost came out of the projection and stuck his whole body right in front of him. He pointed at his nose and scolded, "You'd rather ask Felios for help than ask me for help? Little bastard! Is our relationship that bad? "
Listening to her half-coquettish and half-resentful tone, Li Xiang felt very awkward. He just did not want to trouble this cheap teacher too much.
He did not expect Night Shadow to be jealous of this kind of thing!
"Beg me, humph. Beg me, and I'll help you." Night Shadow crossed her arms and looked smug.
Hestria couldn't stand it any longer and quietly retreated to the side.
Hunting Kong was in a daze. This was completely different from what she had imagined.
"Alright, I beg of you …"
Even though Li Xiang's pleas were emotionless, mechanical, and perfunctory, Night Shadow still nodded in satisfaction. The projection patted his head across the void and said with a smile, "That's a good boy. Actually, I've already done it for you. Do you think I didn't think about it after Andrea was suddenly recruited by me? In the future, don't ask outsiders for help with your own family matters, understand? "
"Yes, yes." In front of this teacher, Li Xiang did not dare to disobey him.
Although she was a little jumpy in front of him, the outside world's comments were very consistent. She was a cruel and cold-blooded beauty.
Just like the Rose Maids, because they were friends, he did not see their cruel side, but it did not mean that it did not exist.
"Little sister Hunting Kong and team 169 have done a great job this time, so you can leave the border freely. Originally, even without the mutants, you would have been forcibly separated to different corners of the seven continents. But now, I've arranged for you to go to Crimson Moon City to help my cute little disciple work as coolies. In City 0126, you don't have to worry about your own problems. You can live a normal life, and no one will interfere. "
After saying this, Night Shadow cut off the communication. She planned to wash her hair. This arrangement was just a small interlude. If it were not for Li Xiang, she would not have bothered to use the communicator.
At this time of the day, it was her personal time to enjoy herself. Naturally, it was a race against time.
The communicator suddenly turned dark, and the secret room returned to normal. Li Xiang and Hunting Kong looked at each other. After a while, he asked awkwardly, "What do you think?"
"Yes, team 169 and I are used to it. I believe they are the same." Hunting Kong did not have any opinions. In fact, she hoped to stay by Andrea's side, but when she left the border and came here, her mother had specifically told her that this interrogation was a good opportunity. She had to work harder and try to leave the border.
She did not want to come back.
So, during the interrogation just now, even though she felt disgusted, she still worked hard. She did not want to disobey her mother at the last moment.
With Night Shadow's personality, she would definitely make them sign a series of unfair contracts and become permanent workers. Li Xiang pointed this out, and Hunting Kong shrugged, indicating that it was fine.
Rather than live in fear outside, it was better to be bound to Li Xiang's ship.
Li Xiang was also happy to accept this group of border warriors, but he could not believe that Night Shadow had considered this before the incident. She had arranged this when he was planning to establish an upper-class family. That was too clever.
He looked at Hestria, who was smiling without any emotion.
If the Night Shadow was Mysterious Man L … He immediately cut off this terrifying thought. He hoped that it wasn't.
Because he had a vague feeling that Mysterious Person L had been using him to set up a shocking situation, and when he officially appeared in front of him, it would be the time when the plan would be broken and people would die.
At that time, countless people would die.
He did not want this to be the result, and the one standing in front of him was Night Shadow.
After being reborn, it was rare for him to have such a good impression of an elder. Li Xiang did not want it to be broken just like that.
"You all know what you need to know. After leaving here, I will deal with the business of establishing a family force. Little sister Hunting Kong and your people will follow me back to Crimson Moon City." Hestria walked towards Wayde and squatted down to look at the roaring ghost face. "I'll leave this guy to you. As for the mastermind behind this, just say that it's a tarot card."
Hestria waved her hand to let Hunting Kong follow her, leaving Li Xiang alone.
When the two left, a black card suddenly flew from Hestria's hand to Li Xiang's hand quietly.
It was Black Elephant's tarot card, Knight of the Sword.
Only Li Xiang and Wayde were left in the secret room. He finally did not have to suppress the madness in his heart anymore.
Hestria must have sensed his abnormality, which was why she had brought Hunting Sky out in advance.
Li Xiang took a deep breath, his eyes turning dark red.
After coming into contact with this ghost face, the dark red scale bar in his body that had been silent all this time suddenly exploded.
This feeling had not appeared for a long time. The last time was when he successfully disassembled a mechanical device for the first time.
It was the exact opposite of his Machinery Mastery ability. The dark red scale bar contained a terrifying power on the other side.
It was more inclined towards the Calamity faction.
Li Xiang reached out his hand. The greed that suddenly rose in his body even made the arrogant Calamity Heart go silent instantly, afraid that it would be targeted by him and become his nutrients.
Before his hand touched the ghost face, the mutant parasitic in Wayde's body let out a horrified scream, echoing through the underground!
Streaks of light red filaments were peeled out from his body. Then, the entire mutant parasitic in Wayde's body twisted crazily and was forcefully pulled out of his body, turning into a blood-red line and burrowing into Li Xiang's body.
The feeling of fullness at that moment was as pleasurable as the climax of a man and a woman.
The scarlet pupils gradually dimmed and were replaced by light golden pupils.
Li Xiang let out a long breath. After absorbing this mutant, the heat in his body was slightly relieved, and the dark red scale bar suddenly rose a lot, reaching a shocking 15%.
He looked at his own hands, suddenly feeling extremely unfamiliar.
.....
Hunting Air and Hestria quietly left Lighthouse Academy. Hestria, who could roughly guess some things, would definitely not let Hunting Air see that side of Li Xiang. Even she was a little frightened. Knowing Li Xiang's background, why did Lord Night Shadow still want to give him the right of inheritance?
That was a real ticking time bomb, an unstable factor buried deep in the human camp.
Hestria's face was full of worry, but things had already come to this. As a member of the Rose Maid Group, she could only obey.
At first, she thought that Lord Night Shadow's words were too exaggerated. After all, every time Li Xiang was involved, she would always be a little nervous. However, when she really came into contact with Li Xiang today, when the burning sensation in her abdomen was so strong that even the Thousand-Tooth Shadow was terrified, she believed it.
At the bottom of the Dead Sea, something that no one expected happened.
The true bloodline in Li Xiang's body had been awakened.
And when Li Xiang returned to the dormitory, he received two letters. One was from the First Lady. She said that she would pay a high price to buy the Heart of Disaster in Li Xiang's body, and that she would make it public. This was probably the Dong Ling King's way of dispelling other people's doubts.
It was indeed perfect.
No one would doubt the authenticity of the deal between him and the First Lady, and no one would dare to fight for the Heart of Disaster in her hands.
The other letter was from the person he did not want to see the most.
Mysterious Man L.
He did not say anything, only leaving the last piece of the Multidemon Set, the Multidemon Heart.
Was this a reward?
Now that he was holding the last piece of equipment, he did not feel happy at all. Instead, he felt a great pressure.
After the battle in the secret chamber, Li Xiang finally confirmed that his body had undergone some changes at the bottom of the Dead Sea that even he himself was not aware of.
And this was obviously what Mysterious Man L wanted.
.....
City 0001, Bai Family's main house, a certain building.
Li Yetong, who was sitting in a wheelchair, propped up her chin and looked out of the window in a daze. In this private room that was as luxurious as a princess's boudoir, she did not feel the warmth of the small rental house.
Even though this place had everything that she had once dreamed of, or even dared to imagine.
The beautiful maids stood neatly by the side, ready to be ordered at any time.
Every day at this time, Miss Bai Xintong would look out of the window alone. She was like a canary in a cage, trapped in this world, making people want to take pity on her.
Her legs would only fully recover after she reached adulthood. After her greatest wish was realized, she always felt a little empty in her heart.
It was as if she was missing something.
Li Yetong yawned, and a handsome man suddenly walked over. No one knew how he appeared in her boudoir.
But when they saw the person's appearance, the group of maids immediately knelt down in fear, not daring to look at his face.
"Brother Dongxue, you have to knock before coming in." Li Yetong held the ancient book in her arms and said lightly, her gaze still not leaving the window.
"Ah, sorry." Bai Dongxue chuckled and thought nothing of it. He bent down and looked at her, "How's your homework?"
"It's so-so. There are many things that I don't understand." Li Yetong moved back a little.
Bai Dongxue smiled. She flicked her sleeves and sat opposite her, blocking the view outside the window.
"Xintong, the new law will be announced soon. His Majesty has finally decided not to tolerate the mutated and calamitous trash." Bai Dongxue looked at her with a faint smile and played with his fingers, "We will set up a clean-up team, specifically to get rid of the vermin in the human camp. As for your brother, although he is quite good at deceiving the world and even managed to get the First Lady to help him, I know that the heart is in his body. It's definitely true."
Hearing him mention her brother, Li Yetong looked up at him leisurely.
"Brother Dongxue, are you afraid?"
"No, I'm just excited. If I were to personally pluck out his heart and place it in front of you, this hatred would definitely make you my opponent, right?" Bai Dongxue smiled brightly, "You understand. I knew it the moment I saw you. We are equally lonely. Be it Shihu or Mi Cha, no matter who it is, they are all too far away from us. "
Outside the window, the first heavy snow of the winter suddenly began to fall. The snowflakes did not bring a beautiful scene, but a bone-chilling cold.
The maidservants prostrated themselves on the ground. They had long been frightened by the conversation.
Li Yetong looked up and her clear and cold gaze shot straight at Bai Dongxue's face. Suddenly, she smiled sweetly.
"Yes, I'm lonely."
She caressed the Book of Prophecy in her arms. This ancient book that was valued by the entire Bai family was only a tool to warm her hands.
"Sister Mi Cha doesn't understand. Brother Shihu doesn't understand either. Everyone doesn't understand. I originally thought you would understand a little, but from the looks of it, you don't understand either." Li Yetong's eyes lit up as she suddenly said with a smile, "My brother, Li Xiang, no one can stop him."
Just like back when she left the small rental apartment, she had shown absolute confidence in Li Xiang in front of the Bai family.
Up to this day, there was no change.
She firmly believed in him without any reason. She had never wavered.
Her hand caressed the Book of Prophecy as her smile became more and more magnificent. She was like a rose that bloomed in winter, beautiful and alluring.
