The fire in Demon City lasted for three days and three nights. Half of the broken Floating City sank into the center of Demon City and turned into ashes, while the other half was destroyed with countless casualties.
The rescue team nearby rushed over after receiving the military's notice. They were still shocked by the tragic situation in Demon City.
Osna, with her bright blonde hair, frowned as she mixed in with the players.
"Osna, Senior Yao Lie is over there. Go help him." A tall man patted her shoulder and sighed. "The Yao Family is ruined in this battle. I'm afraid they'll fall out of the Aristocratic Families."
"The Air of Absolute Death …" Ossina ignored him and walked toward Yao Lie, who was on the verge of death. The other players and medics were frantically searching for survivors. The entire Demon City fell into a deathly silence and sorrow.
She squatted down and bit her finger. A drop of Origin Blood fell from the sky and dripped into Yao Lie's mouth.
Soon, her face became rosy, and the black gas around her body gradually dissipated.
Osna was now at the peak of Level 1 and could break through to Level 2 at any time. She was not outstanding in the rescue team, but she would always be recruited by the rescue team because of her special constitution.
Due to her unique physique, her blood had a terrifying sealing effect that could block all disaster-related things. Even a powerful killing weapon like the Death Aura would not have any effect on her.
Ousina felt her sleeves tighten. She turned around and saw an anxious young girl with bloodstains all over her face clutching her sleeves. Ousina glanced at the young girl in confusion and found that she looked somewhat similar to Yao Lie.
"I, I'm Yao Lie's younger sister …" Enchantress took a deep breath. She knew Osna. This elder sister was also a student of Lighthouse Academy. As she was part of the famous Rose Maid Group, her elder sister had mentioned her several times.
She and Li wanted to know each other.
"Don't worry, Sister Enchantress. Your sister is very strong. She won't die so easily." Osna thought that the young girl was too frightened, so she gently stroked her head and said softly, "We will definitely make these thugs pay the price."
"No, no … It's Li Xiang. It's about him …" The Enchantress bit her lip and looked at her.
Ou Sina stared blankly for a moment before standing up. While she was at it, she helped Yao Lie, who had recovered slightly, up. She suddenly shouted to the surroundings, "You guys continue. I'll take Senior for treatment."
"Yes."
Several steady voices rang out in the darkness.
"Follow me. It's not easy to talk here." Osna looked at Little Temptress. She then helped Yao Lie to a small Floating Ship.
The three of them boarded the airship immediately. The airship shot out several pure-white pillars of energy and shot toward the horizon.
Looking at the sea of fire and the tragic scene below, Demoness felt her heart ache for no reason. It was as if the most gentle side of her heart had been ruthlessly torn apart.
This was the first time she faced the cruelest side of the human camp.
"The Yao Family has suffered great losses. Your other players have all submitted applications to leave the Yao Family as soon as possible. I'm afraid that Senior Yao Lie's injuries won't recover for at least two to three years. The Yao Family will be kicked out of the Aristocratic Families," Osna said solemnly. Every word was meant for both Yao Ji and Yao Lie.
Yao Lie, who was in a semi-conscious state, grabbed his sister's hand tightly. This was the first time he felt powerless and in pain.
"How could this be …" The Enchantress, who was usually cold to the outside but silly to the inside, could not wrap her head around this. In her opinion, her family was clearly the victim!
"This matter is troublesome. No, it's very troublesome. The human camp is not a monolithic block. Or rather, everyone is like a tiger, leopard, or wolf. If someone is in trouble, the first thing to do is to divide the benefits and strengthen oneself. The Yao Family has a strong foundation, but this time, you've lost the Sealed Item and all of your combat power. You're worthless now. "
Osna's eyes were clear. Although she was ranked at the bottom of the Rose Maid Group, she was deeply loved by Night Shadow. Her outstanding analytical skills and superb physique made her highly valued by many big shots.
She was willing to help the Yao Family so wholeheartedly because she was also a member of the lighthouse.
Of course, there was another, more important reason.
"Then, what should we do?" The Enchantress understood the deeper meaning behind her sister's words. Soon, someone would come to divide the remaining resources of the Yao Family. They might also be expelled from the city for some strange reason and be sent to a remote place.
The compensation was negligible. If they were targeted by their former enemies, it was possible that they would end up like the Yi Family.
Winner takes all.
The most important thing was that the Yao Family had never found a true backer.
Yao Lie's only identity was the principal of the Torch Academy, a university of lighthouse players of the Subcontinent. However, the university itself was in a precarious situation.
The board of directors would never help the Yao Family!
"Let's talk about Li Xiang first," Osna said casually.
The Enchantress sorted out her thoughts and told her everything from the beginning to the end. Knowing Osna's identity, the Enchantress told her about how Li Xiang had taken away the Primordial Array.
Having said that, she looked at Osna anxiously.
For Osna, the best way was to do what the others did and beat the dog while keeping Li Xiang's secret.
"This … is even more troublesome. His identity cannot be exposed yet. Absolutely not!" Osna's face was twisted. Her fingers dug deep into the armrest of her chair. After some hesitation, she took out her communication device and dialed Night Shadow's number in front of the other two.
After the report, Night Shadow also fell silent.
"Lady Lili, I think we should back out of this." Osna bit her lips and suddenly said, "Even if you and Lady Bai Lili have a close relationship, you have done enough for Li Xiang! If you get involved now, it will be a matter of which side you choose! Do you really want to go against the five lords? "
"This kid … he's just as troublesome as his father!" Night Shadow spat. He looked helpless, but his expression was firm. "Osna, are you trying to persuade me to give up on taking care of Li Xiang?"
“.....”
"I know your concerns. Don't take too long. He is the son of the Evil Lord and The Fool. This identity will be known to the world, and people will use this to attack him. At that time, Ye Tong will also be involved. He has no one to protect him. He only has Polar Night behind him. If we leave him, he will have no choice but to go to the tarot card shop. "
Night Shadow swirled the red wine in his glass. Several members of the Rose Maid Squad were lying on the bed, yawning. They didn't seem to be paying attention to the communication device, but the murderous intent that flashed in their eyes fell on Osna.
As expected, many of the sisters had their own thoughts.
Some of them were optimistic about Li Xiang, and some of them hated Li Xiang. However, the only thing that did not change was that they were all loyal to Night Shadow.
"Lady Lili, going to the tarot card shop … might not be that bad of a choice." Osna bit her lips and retorted. "If you want to interfere in this matter, you will have to stand against the others. I can't think of anyone who would be willing to stand behind Li Xiang. No one wants to see the Evil Lord resurrected, and many people don't want him to return to the Bai Family. "
"The son of the Evil Lord, Bai Lili, and The Fool, Lancelot Lee Wessex! He can't return to the Bai Family, and he can't go to Wessex! He will only be a thorn in the side of these two forces. "Osna did not care too much and exposed him.
Crack!
The wine glass in Night Shadow's hand shattered.
"Lancelot … Lancelot. How long has it been since I last heard this name?" Night Shadow smirked. He looked at Osna as if he was looking at a child who was throwing a tantrum. He chuckled. "I know what you mean, Osna. My attitude is to stay put. Things are far from at the point where I have to do everything I can to clean up this brat's mess. His parents are dead, and he's so pitiful. If someone bullies him and I, his parents' best friend, don't help, wouldn't he be too pitiful? "
Osna breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Night Shadow was staying put. However, she frowned again when she heard the latter part of his sentence.
No matter how powerful Lady Lili was, she was only a Level-6 player at the moment. She was not one of the strongest. It would be a thankless task for her to get involved in such a circle. That was why she tried her best to stop her.
"Sister Osna, do you really think Li Xiang doesn't have anyone backing him up?" A beautiful head popped out of the blanket. Her eyes were sleepy, and her voice was seductive. She had a body and a face that even women would be envious of.
She only popped her head out, but Enchantress was already mesmerized.
"Sister Leia!" Osna hurriedly bowed. Her rigid and neutral personality was very popular with the other members of the maid corps.
Leia Alfa.
The first in the Rose Maid Group.
She was also the first follower of Night Shadow before it was founded. It was said that her strength was on par with Night Shadow's. She was the most mysterious maid and spent most of her time outside Calamity City.
Her return meant that she represented the will of another master!
Polar Night Magician also supported Li Xiang?
Osna decisively cut off the communication when she thought of this possibility.
Polar Night's attitude could be seen from the fact that even Lady Lili was not afraid.
Leia Alfa often followed by Polar Night's side. Whenever she appeared, she would represent the will of that old man.
"As … you can see, this matter cannot be made public for the time being. It must be kept a secret. As for the Yao Family, I will arrange for you to rest in Crimson Moon City. But at the same time, I want everyone who knows about this to be killed. "Osna's eyes flashed with murderous intent.
Rose Maid Group didn't become famous because they were beautiful and gentle maids. Instead, they were a group of psychopathic and murderous madwomen.
They would do anything to achieve their goals.
Enchantress nodded. This was an exchange. The lives of many in exchange for the safety of the Yao Family. She couldn't refuse. Her sister would have done the same.
"Then, that … Sister Osna, will the people from the Tarot Card Society attack other ancient martial arts families?" Enchantress knew a lot of secrets, especially that they were here for the sealed item. Back at the Death Omen Star, they were here for the resurrection of the Evil Skull.
Since the Yao Family had sealed the Evil Skull, the other Ancient Martial Families obviously had seals too.
Osna's body trembled. She immediately smiled. "Probably not. They will take your family's token and make the guardian lose its combat power. Only then can they invade smoothly. But now, the only family left is the Dragon Family. Their master is the same level as Lady Lili, the Master of Polar Night, Chen Long, a Level 6 player! "
Enchantress nodded. But looking at her sister, Yao Lie, she felt uneasy.
.....
Three people walked out of the void.
Osiris held the golden skull, intoxicated. Finally, he reluctantly put it into the crystal box and gave it to Fei Zilan, who had been waiting for a long time.
"When Chen Fei gets the skeleton, we will have all the conditions for the resurrection. Then, the Evil Skull will return to the seven continents." Fei Zilan looked at her daughter and smiled.
"It's hard to say about Chen Fei. She is the strongest Ancient Martial Family now, and she has the Master of Polar Night." Flody smiled sinisterly. She didn't like this comrade who had fallen from the sky. The Great Arcana Card holders were all from the Era of the Fool. She was the only one who had killed the previous Strength Card holder and inherited it.
They were usually very hostile to outsiders.
"Chen Fei is very strong," Neptune said coldly.
"Don't worry about her. She has a total of four cards this time. It's more than enough to deal with the Dragon Family. Even if she can't destroy them, it's easy to get the sealed item." Osiris was also very confident.
Chen Fei was only a Level 3 player, but her strength was far more than what her level showed. Moreover, Chen Long naturally had people who were targeting him, so Chen Fei didn't have to face him head-on.
Looking at the golden skull in her father's hand, Fei Yujing felt a burning sensation in her heart. The battle of the Death Omen made her see the gap between herself and her peers. Whether it was Dong Ling, Ming Xu, or Bai Lihu, they all had resources that she couldn't reach. With the power given by the Evil Skull, she could barely fight with them.
But the gap would only get bigger.
She couldn't accept it!
"Venus came to make trouble, but her target was still Li Xiang." Osiris was unhappy when he thought of the old witch. "She and Ayres took away Li Xiang. If the Priestess didn't revive, how could she dare to confront us so openly?"
"That's just one of the guesses. After all, The Fool's Faction has more people than us. Moreover, The Fool's Card is still in their hands." Flodi spread out his hands. "But what does it matter? Half of everyone's core strength comes from the Evil Skull, and the other half comes from The Fool. It's normal to have differences."
The Evil Skull gave them the ability to transform into disaster, and The Fool gave them powerful disaster weapons.
Each had their own benefits.
"Do you think it's possible that they've deciphered the secret of The Fool's Card? The Fool has such powerful mechanical abilities. They obtained The Fool's ability to create disaster weapons and want to transplant it to Li Xiang. Could that be the case? "Osiris was a little afraid.
Disaster weapons could only be obtained from killing disasters, and the probability was very low. They were treasures that countless players sought after. They couldn't be created or broken down.
But there was an exception.
Lancelot Lee Wessex, the Mechanic who disappeared from the view of most people, had the ability to create and break down disaster weapons!
This was also one of the main reasons for the rapid rise of tarot cards in the early days. Together with the Evil Skull's ability to transform into disaster, they became the two miracles of the human faction.
