Was he planning to kill himself because he didn't want to die in his hands?
Owl looked coldly at Li Xiang, closing in step by step, not letting down his guard. As a Level 2 player, his combat experience was far more than the sum of the other players present. He would never fail miserably like a newbie.
If Li Xiang had a little understanding of the players' system, he wouldn't have been tricked by Owl.
At this moment, Li Xiang was leaning against half of the broken wall in the ruins. His face was pale and almost transparent. Blood kept seeping out of the corner of his mouth. His body was slightly bent, and the muzzle of Paradise of Annihilation was pointed at his wound.
The white round wheel on the left side of the gun slowly turned and stopped at the Roman numeral II.
The blue shape meant that Paradise of Annihilation was still in its initial form.
Initial Gun Skill II: Absolute Healing.
The blue light instantly penetrated Li Xiang's wound. His sudden action of shooting at himself scared the others.
Bai Ling shouted coldly, thinking that he was planning to kill himself. She waved the crimson red longsword and cut down all the elemental lifeforms around her. Then, she roared at a certain shadow, "What are you waiting for?!"
Her voice was so penetrating that people couldn't help but cover their ears.
However, this sentence caused a huge ripple in Owl's ears.
There was indeed someone hiding in the dark.
It was an assassin that even his perception couldn't easily detect. His body perfectly blended into the shadows, but it wasn't Ming Xu.
Li Xiang in front of him suddenly changed. His wound was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye. Even if a substance that was extremely harmful to Disaster had invaded his body, it still couldn't stop the blue light from circulating in his various tissues.
"What a strong healing ability!" It wasn't that Owl had never seen healing magic before, but the scene in front of him was like a high-level healing magic. It was clearly a fatal wound, but it was healed in an instant!
Bang!
Li Xiang, who got up, and Owl collided again.
The two separated as soon as they touched. They were evenly matched in the most primitive collision of power.
Li Xiang aimed at the left side of Owl's body. His left hand was withered and drooped powerlessly. After this strike, it completely disintegrated, turning into a pool of flesh and blood and dissipating in the air.
At the critical moment, Owl shifted his center of gravity and dodged Li Xiang's attack. Then, he threw out his right fist like a weapon and hit Li Xiang's shoulder hard.
Li Xiang flew out and fell to the ground. He rolled a few times before he was able to disperse the huge force.
As expected of a LV2 player who had been on the battlefield for a long time. Even in a situation where half of his body was destroyed, he was still able to reverse the situation.
Owl had lost his left hand, and the left side of his body had also fallen into a state of paralysis. His heart was beating violently, as if thunder was ringing in his ears.
"Go to hell." Bai Ling's body was bathed in blood. She stabbed her sword from behind.
She had just fought her way out of a group of elemental lifeforms with all her might. At this moment, her white dress had been dyed red. Coupled with the crimson sword that was howling incessantly, she looked like a god of death that had just walked out of hell.
Everyone trembled in fear.
The violent aura of disaster came from behind, but Owl did not even turn his head. His right arm suddenly swelled up, and then he threw a punch behind him, sending Bai Ling, who was charging at him, flying.
That terrifying force left a deep imprint on the ground. Following the trajectory of Bai Ling's flight, the surrounding swaying but still standing buildings were all smashed to pieces.
The buildings collapsed as if they had been blown up. The air was filled with all kinds of dust and substances, making people's noses and mouths feel numb.
This punch had completely crippled Bai Ling's combat ability. The pressure on the other three who were facing countless elemental lifeforms increased tremendously. They could no longer free their hands to support Li Xiang.
This punch had also made them realize that the other battlefield was not ordinary.
Owl was really too strong. Only Li Xiang could fight him head-on. The rest of them, who were also potential players, did not even have the qualifications to participate in this battle.
Bai Ling, who was the most talented and the strongest among them, was sent flying by a punch and fainted. It was obvious that Li Xiang, who was fighting with Owl just now, was under great pressure.
"There's still a little mouse left. When will he come out?" Owl sneered as he looked around. He had to admit that the other party's concealment skills were extraordinary. He had searched several times but could not find the real hiding place.
"Naturally, when I kill you." Li Xiang said in a deep voice. He turned into a blue light and met with Owl again.
A huge explosion occurred in the area with the two of them as the center. At the same time, a black and red pillar of fire rose up. The flames shot straight into the sky, illuminating the dark sky as if it was daytime.
Owl's blood was boiling. He was desperately burning the magic particles in his body. Every punch and kick contained terrifying power. He would also throw out some strange magic from time to time, forcing Li Xiang back again and again.
The Heaven of Annihilation's All Purification attack missed again.
Using this disaster weapon consumed too much energy. He had already fired three shots that day, and more than half of the accumulated power in his body had been drained.
Owl's Major General uniform turned into nothingness in the flames, revealing the muscles under his tall body that looked like steel wires wrapped together. Those muscles squirmed slowly as he breathed. It was horrifying.
"The genetic warrior modification plan." Owl immediately answered when he saw Li Xiang's puzzled look.
This was a failed battle plan of the Chronometer Tower. A large number of warriors had lost their lives because of it, and only a few people had survived.
Yue Xingling's father was also one of the participants of this plan.
Survivors like them had obtained a terrifying physique and unimaginable strength, but this was an exception.
The original intention of the Chronometer Tower was to tap into the potential of the human body and develop it to create a new model. It would allow ordinary people who could not become magic users to explode with amazing combat power without relying on stimulants and other special drugs.
It would allow magic users to improve their physiques and reach the peak. They could even break through the absolute shackles of a Level-3 Magician.
But it had never been mentioned that players were also involved in the plan.
"This is a stupid and sad plan. Many of my comrades didn't die on the battlefield at the front lines, didn't die in the hands of disasters and mutants, but died in this ridiculous research plan!"
Owl's voice was as loud as thunder, desperately venting the resentment in his heart.
Now that things had come to this point, there was nothing that could not be said.
"You probably don't know the truth of this plan. It was just a test of some of the research results of the high and mighty Level-9 players. High-level players are the real masters of this world. They can use the resources accumulated by humans as they wish. They can ask for live experiments and let the Five Great Thrones and other giants satisfy all their desires. "
"After many years, I learned from the tarot card that this genetic project was predicted to fail from the beginning. That lord didn't really grasp the genetic code. He knew that it would fail and many people would die, but in order to get a large amount of real data, he still applied to start the plan. He let countless people, like me, serve him one after another, and then die tragically under the drugs. "
Li Xiang stopped and looked at him quietly.
"Those who survived were just lucky. They weren't successful test subjects at all. Our bodies have long been destroyed beyond recognition. What does this twisted and perverted appearance have to do with humans?" Owl took a deep breath and looked at his wriggling muscles in a self-deprecating manner. "So even if they survived, most people chose to fall into the disaster camp or join an organization like the tarot card card."
"Of course, there were a few lucky ones who got the antidote. There are very few antidotes for the genetic medicine. Even when I was about to be promoted to Brigadier General, I still couldn't get one. But someone got one. For example, the father of the little girl from the Yue family you're familiar with. He married into the Yue family and got one from the Moon Prince. "
So that's how it is.
"Li Xiang, the world of players is far dirtier than you can imagine. I want to tell you all these dark things so that you, who have just become players, who still have hope in all these things, will completely lose all hope!"
Owl laughed wildly and looked back at the people who were still fighting hard but listening to their conversation attentively. He also looked at the pale-faced Ji Xiaoyi.
"The Aristocratic Alliance, the top giants, the high-level players, monopolize everything in this world, but they do nothing and only exploit us at the bottom. You cultivate desperately, but in the end, you just join them and become one of them. "
"Little girl from the Ji family, you're Ji Shanhan's daughter, right? Do you know why your father failed at the Great Wall of Disaster? Do you know how your talented brother died? Hahahaha! "
Owl paused.
He looked into Ji Xiaoyi's eyes.
"I personally sent your brother into the mouth of the disaster. Your father was also set up by me."
It was obvious who the mastermind behind this was.
But Ji Xiaoyi's eyes instantly turned red. She felt waves of monstrous anger surging in her body. All these years, because of these two things, she had endured countless supercilious looks, ridicule, and abuse from the other branch families!
"You bastard!"
"I personally sent my two sons into the mouth of the disaster just to let the general get the trade goods from the disaster."
Owl's expression was cold.
"From the beginning to the end, we're just chess pieces in the hands of the big shots. Even you, Li Xiang, are just a more beautiful chess piece. That's all."
"You're finally willing to say it? Owl! "
The woman's question and angry howl resounded through the air.
Dale Nidri walked out from the shadows in a fiery red trench coat.
She wasn't the one hiding in the shadows.
Owl had smelled Dale's scent from the beginning.
Even if they couldn't participate in the battle, there were still several players who were close to Li Xiang gathered around. They were observing and eavesdropping.
That was why Owl said so much. It seemed like he was talking to Li Xiang, but in fact, he was talking to them.
But when she heard the last sentence, Dale finally couldn't hold it in anymore.
If she didn't truly love this man, why would she, the most brilliant pearl of the Nidri family, marry a mere brigadier general of the army?
If it wasn't for the fact that she truly loved this man, why would she be willing to give birth to two sons for him? Yet, he had personally sent them into Calamity's mouth. Then, he had secretly brought over the bastards of two other women and deceived her for so long!
When a woman's anger burned, it was terrifying, especially when it was a crazy woman like Dale.
Li Xiang subconsciously retreated to the side.
"You betrayed me." Owl looked calmly at the wife he once loved the most. He didn't know how much he loved her.
He had slept with so many women that he was numb. As for love, did such a thing really exist?
Perhaps he only wanted to rely on her to get to the top.
"Ha." Dale casually threw out an iron box. The box opened, and a black head rolled out. "I've brought your lover. Let's go to hell together."
"She's just an ordinary person." Owl's eyes flashed with anger. That head belonged to Kuang Tie's biological mother, a maid from the Ji family. She had the blood of the Black King flowing in her veins, but she had been killed by Dale.
This woman was really crazy.
She disregarded the dignity of the Black King and secretly communicated with Li Xiang. Now, she even dared to interfere in the battle between him and Li Xiang.
"Don't worry, the two of you can leave together. After that, I'll separate your ashes and toss hers to the Calamity Faction. As for yours, I'll properly keep it by my bedside and show you just how promiscuous I am."
"I'll let you have a taste of being cuckolded after death!"
Dale shouted hysterically. The reason she had been maintaining had long collapsed. She had been waiting for this moment for too long, and the feeling of being sated to her heart's content was too wonderful.
Revenge, revenge, revenge. After learning the truth from Li Xiang and Andrea that day, revenge was the only thing left in her mind.
"Of course, the first one will be Li Xiang. What do you think?" Dale activated a magic rune and stepped into the battlefield.
"You're crazy." Owl looked at her calmly. "If you join the battlefield now, you'll cross the line. The Kataszhaofei Committee will definitely banish you to the Great Wall of Disaster."
"Who said I'd do it myself?" Dale smiled happily and looked at the figure that quietly appeared behind him. "Owl, it must feel good to die in the hands of your own daughter."
Owl's pupils shrank. The aura behind him was so familiar that his first reaction was not to turn around and punch.
Slash!
The sharp dagger accurately pierced his heart. The tip of the dagger emerged from the front of his heart and then pierced through his chest.
Behind him, Yu Zhitong's eyes were indifferent. She twisted the dagger in her hand and completely cut off Owl's life.
She had been lurking for so long, waiting for the moment when Owl lost his guard.
Assassination required an amazing amount of perseverance and courage, which she did not lack.
As for her father, that kind of feeling was too weak. From the time she entered the orphanage until she left, Yu Zhitong's body did not have any feelings for him.
Everything was for her own benefit, for herself, to survive, to build her own wealthy family.
In her eyes, there was only Li Xiang's back. She wanted to catch up with him, to prove herself, to let him know how sad and desperate it was when he gave up on her and left with Ye Tong on his back!
But why?
Yu Zhitong let go and wiped her eyes. They were wet.
What was this?
Why?
It was as if all the strength in her body had been sucked out in an instant.
She did not dare to look at the man's eyes after he fell.
Dale's sudden hysterical cries echoed in her ears.
The moment Yu Zhitong lost consciousness, Li Xiang stepped forward and hugged her.
"Because I am a woman, I know that the more I once loved a man, the more I will hate him after it turns into hatred. But in the end, for a woman, no matter how much she hates a man, she will still be reluctant to let him go and turn it into a more passionate love."
Dale's words echoed in her mind.
She threw herself on Owl's body and cried, then hammered the woman's head into pieces like a madwoman. The bloody scene spread in the air, sad and desolate.
"I admit everything you said, but this is not a reason for you to give up moving forward. It is precisely because the world is like this that I have to move forward and completely purify all the unfair, unreasonable, and unclean things."
Li Xiang looked at Owl's body and muttered to himself.
"After the Polar night, dawn comes."
