With Owl's death, Dale Nadri seemed to have aged a lot in an instant. Her face was sallow, and she hugged Owl's cold body without saying a word.
After the crying, there was a deathly silence.
In the distance, the Queen of Pain, who had transformed into a spider, slowly walked over with Kong Mu's head in her hand. Countless mechanical arms in the shape of tentacles supported her slender body. The mechanical arms wriggled slowly and sent her to the courtyard.
Rumble.
The head rolled to Li Xiang's feet. A Level-3 player was killed just like that!
A few players from the New Polar night organization who were hiding in the shadows let out low cries and gradually disappeared into the shadows.
The Queen of Pain was not a player, so she was not affected by the battle. However, her appearance would definitely attract the attention of many high-level players. Moreover, she had the face of Bai Lili, which was terrifying.
"I'll be leaving first, Li Xiang." She was also aware of this. After receiving Li Xiang's reply, she instantly entered the Void Crack and went somewhere unknown.
In this world, she had only established a mental link with Li Xiang. No one else knew where she went. At the same time, if Li Xiang was in mortal danger, she would come to his rescue regardless of the cost.
This was also one of Li Xiang's trump cards.
A faint opening slowly appeared in the silent night. The faint light of dawn shone on the ground inch by inch.
It was daybreak.
A corner of the dawn appeared in the sky, illuminating the military base. The dragons and elves were cleaning up the aftermath. If the corpses of the human warriors were not cleaned up, they would rot in a few days and cause a plague. If it spread, it would be a devastating blow to the towns of the ordinary people.
The Centaur Queen, Shana, and her daughter, Jana, led a group of female Centaur Warriors to the courtyard.
To them, Li Xiang was their savior. He was more worthy of their respect than the dragons who ruled them. After completing the assigned task, Shana could not help but come to Li Xiang's aid.
"Lord Li Xiang!" The half-naked Centaur Queen rushed over with a trident in her hand. Jana followed closely behind her, holding an aquamarine longbow.
"Queen Shana." Li Xiang smiled and nodded. This was the agreement they had made. He had helped the centaurs produce a large number of water purifiers, and they would come to his aid at the most critical moment.
Shana had indeed brought the most elite female warriors of the Centaur Tribe, and they were the only tribe that had come out in full force.
After leaving the Jadeite Forest, they decided to settle down in City 0126 and become a true member of the new Polar night organization. A mere water purifier was not a problem at all. Li Xiang could provide the best service to every centaur girl.
Moreover, after his self-evolution, he and Honey had talked about it over the communication device. They felt that they could try combining different species, and perhaps nurture stronger mixed-blood descendants.
Reproductive isolation had always been a natural law that hindered the evolution and development of various races.
However, if one were to observe carefully, they would discover that when the genes were strong enough, it was possible to break through the reproductive isolation. For example, the Chaos Dragons, Black Dragons, and other Evil Dragons of the Dragon Tribe would combine with many subordinate races of the Jadeite Forest to give birth to various Lesser Dragon descendants.
Of course, the strength of the Lesser Dragon Tribe could not compete with the Colossal Dragon Tribe. However, they were generally stronger than the Colossal Dragon Tribe. Among so many mixed-blood individuals, there would occasionally be one or two extremely talented descendants. Their strength could even surpass the Colossal Dragon Tribe.
By analogy, it was not impossible for human players and magic users to achieve this.
In the past, this concept had always been regarded as evil, and with the conceit of human players, they looked down on any individuals weaker than themselves.
They only combined with players, and this also caused the birth of descendants to be difficult.
However, it was different for magic users.
They did not have such high requirements, and they were strong enough. However, in the past, both the human side and the ancient races were very against this.
Occasionally, there would be taboo love, and the descendants were very strong. However, because mixed-blood was not recognized, both the human side and the ancient races were unwilling to accept such children. As a result, most of them fell into the Disaster camp and became mutants, or fled to the Disaster Great Wall to become cannon fodder.
This concept still existed between the two sides.
However, Li Xiang could vaguely feel the urgency of time.
Lancelot was resurrected, and Bai Lili could be resurrected at any time. That unknown existence had also found him. Perhaps the real war was about to begin. Then, one more combat power meant one more chance of survival.
He had the best relationship with the Centaurs, which was why he had secretly mentioned this to Shana. Shana had immediately agreed to move the tribe to City 0126. If there really was a love between a human and a Centaur, she would not object.
Actually, for a special matriarchal race like the Centaurs, reproduction had always been a problem.
Male Centaurs had no combat power, and their bloodline was thin. It would only have the side effect of neutralizing the bloodline. In the long run, the Centaurs would become weaker and weaker.
Xuanyue had mentioned to Li Xiang that the Yue Family, as a matriarchal family, could become one of the five Sovereigns not only because of the Moon Queen's terrifying Level-9 player bloodline, but more importantly, the Yue Family's main family would only mate with the Emperor Tribe!
When the strong worked together, the bloodline would be even stronger, and that was why they could prosper to this day.
The Moon Queen did not have a husband, but she had four daughters. It was because her man was actually in the Emperor Tribe.
Similarly, as the four heirs of the main family, their marriage had long been nailed down. They could only mate with the Emperor Tribe.
Not only that, but some of the talented girls in the Yue Family had to give birth to at least one child for the Emperor Tribe. Only then would they have the right to choose their spouse.
This sounded ridiculous, but it had always been the absolute order of the Emperor Tribe.
The Yue Family was the Emperor Tribe's harem.
For the sake of the family's prosperity, they had no choice but to do so.
Generation after generation, they abided by the family's language. The husband who married into the family had no choice but to wear this green hat.
However, the Emperor Tribe had very few connections. Moreover, after giving birth to a child, they would not meet the Yue Family's wife again. They would only bring the child back to the Emperor Tribe.
Only the daughters of the main family would be sent back to the Yue Family as the next batch of seeds to be nurtured.
The Emperor Tribe gave the Yue Family unparalleled power. At the same time, it also made them deeply wary and afraid.
At that time, Yue Xingling and Xuanyue had mentioned to him that the Emperor Tribe had almost suffered a backlash because of the invisible restriction.
However, as time passed, the restriction of the Emperor Tribe seemed to be getting weaker and weaker.
Previously, Crimson Moon had half-jokingly asked Xinyue to marry Li Xiang to help her sister find a good husband. It was said that the Emperor Tribe had not made any moves for nearly half a year!
Regardless of the Emperor Tribe's matters, Li Xiang saw the hope of a new race from the marriage between the Emperor Tribe and the Yue Family.
At the same time, it could also solve the historical problem of the Centaurs.
"Sorry to trouble you all." Li Xiang thanked them one by one, letting the ancient races of the Jadeite Forest help clean up the mess.
Dale recovered from her grief and watched as Owl's body was taken away. She turned to Li Xiang expressionlessly. "Come with me."
Li Xiang glanced at Yu Zhitong, who was still in a daze. As if he sensed something, he nodded and followed Dale's footsteps.
No one dared to come over and spy on the two players' private conversation. The players in the shadows also retreated after the Queen of Pain appeared.
Today's goal had been achieved. If they stayed, they would only hinder Li Xiang from cleaning up the mess. No one would do something so stupid.
The two of them came to a very quiet open space and looked up at the slowly rising sun. After a long time, Dale finally said something.
"Poyers … She used to be called Yu Zhitong?"
"Yes. When she was in the orphanage, she was the only child with her own name. It was said that when she was sent here, she still had a nameplate around her neck." Li Xiang recalled. However, this was something that a few of the nurses accidentally said after they were drunk. As for the nameplate, they had already sold it for money.
"Yu is Owl's real surname. However, after he was given the name Owl, he never mentioned this commoner's surname again."
Li Xiang's body trembled slightly, as if he had grasped a secret.
"The name Zhitong is the woman's own name, Bai Zhitong. If I hadn't deliberately looked through the Bai family's genealogy, I'm afraid no one would have noticed this woman huddled in the corner. " Dale smiled bitterly, her eyes dull. "If I hadn't accidentally found out the whereabouts of the nameplate from those nurses, I wouldn't have known the truth of this secret."
"What's going on?"
"When I first met Poyers, I was indeed attracted by her extraordinary combat talent and intuition. When I investigated her background, I found out that you two came from the same orphanage. Of course, this wasn't a secret. My instincts told me that with her terrifying talent, she couldn't be an unknown child, so I went to investigate the orphanage.
"It was just an ordinary orphanage that was burned down. Other than the three of you, there was nothing special about the children there. It was undoubtedly a coincidence. However, in the process of searching, I accidentally found out the whereabouts of the nameplate. After many rounds of investigation, I was certain that it was the Bai family's unique white jade nameplate! One of her parents was from the Bai family. "
At this point, Dale paused, her long nails digging deep into her flesh.
"I'm afraid that woman is the one that Owl really can't forget! The white jade nameplate isn't precious. It's just a symbol of status. Every woman of the Bai family who is pushed out for political marriage will get one. Naturally, after many rounds of investigation, Bai Zhitong fell into my eyes. "
Bai Zhitong was really an ordinary woman with big breasts and no brains. She was too ordinary, but she was regarded as the love of two powerful men.
General Othello and Owl loved this woman at the same time. Because she was an ordinary person, she couldn't give birth to an heir for the general, which made General Othello feel extremely guilty.
However, it was she who left behind the only truly talented descendant for Owl.
Unfortunately, this woman was too stupid and too incompetent. No one dared to say anything, so she sent the child to the orphanage. All of this fell into the eyes of Ji Zhanxue, and became a means to blackmail Owl in the future.
"No wonder he was so determined to make a deal with me. He used Kong Mu's life and his own in exchange for this battle, as well as preserving the seeds of the ten major legions. He even deliberately left them for Yu Zhitong."
This was something that Li Xiang couldn't understand. Even if Yu Zhitong was Dale's stepdaughter, what did it have to do with Owl? Why did he leave the last legion to her?
Originally, Yu Zhitong wanted 50% of it this time, but according to Owl's last wish, he would leave all of it to her.
So this was the reason!
Dale … She already knew about it, but she still let the ignorant Yu Zhitong kill her father with her own hands!
Was this a woman's revenge?
"Then why did you tell me the truth?" Li Xiang looked at her. Hiding it from them was the best choice.
The truth was not a good thing for Zhitong.
"I'm tired." Dale looked at him and said lightly, "I just wanted him to die. I wanted him to die painfully, but in the end, he found out that he killed a woman from the Ji family and thousands of others. Until he died, he was still thinking about his own bastard child. It had nothing to do with me at all. "
"The difference in your identities is destined to make him unable to find comfort from you. Compared to you, the one from the Ji family and the one from the Bai family are closer to him. They also failed and were played by fate. " Li Xiang sighed. "And the one from the Bai family, according to your description, is more in line with the taste of a powerful man."
Silly and sweet.
A powerful man was not afraid of not having a woman, but he was more afraid of having a woman who was too powerful. Wasn't it good to have a woman who loved him wholeheartedly?
It was hard to find a second pair of lovers like him and Ming Xu.
"Maybe. Anyway, after this incident, Ji Zhanxue will definitely go crazy after losing his left and right hands. I don't want Poyers to become another tool in his hands. He's been laying the groundwork for a long time. He must have a way to prove that she's General Othello's daughter. That stupid woman from the Bai family won't dare to resist. "
General Othello, the Army's God of War, Level-9 player.
If such a person got close to Ji Zhanxue, it would be Li Xiang's endless nightmare.
"Then what can I do? If General Othello really believes it, do I have to tell him the truth? "Li Xiang looked at her." If so, she'll be dead! "
"Otherwise, you'll be dead." Dale looked at him coldly and suddenly chuckled. "Don't forget, you're also my enemy. To see you and Owl die together, I will be very happy, very happy. "
"Make your choice, Li Xiang. I have enough evidence to expose this matter. If Yu Zhitong dies, General Othello will completely fall out with Ji Zhanxue. Or you can say nothing and let her become General Othello's nominal daughter. At the same time, he'll also stand on Ji Zhanxue's side in return. "
"Don't expect her to stand on your side, Li Xiang," Dale added. "You know her better than I do. She has Owl's wealth and army, and General Othello's support. Her future won't be worse than your sister Li Yetong's. Her desire and fire in her heart are much hotter than yours. "
"She won't help you."
After saying this, Dale waved her hand and left.
As long as Li Xiang was willing, he could call her back and it would be a perfect ending.
But he didn't say anything and just quietly watched Dale's back as she left.
"I'm not like Owl. I'm afraid I'll disappoint you." Li Xiang chuckled.
Dale's body trembled, and then she turned her back to him and laughed.
"Then I wish you good luck, leader of the new Polar night organization, Polar night player."
