The town was filled with the smell of blood, as if a river of blood had spread out in the city, but there was nothing unusual on the streets.
The streets were clean and clean.
A gentle breeze blew past, bringing with it waves of blood that had not dissipated for a long time. It spread all the way, and its destination was the villa of the middle-aged leader.
Li Xiang quickened his pace, and a bad feeling rose in his heart.
This was the Frost Continent, under the Black Mountain, a town protected by the Light of Humanity. It was impossible for it to be silently attacked by mutants or disasters.
Moreover, looking at the situation in the city, it was not caused by an attack by the disaster camp. It was clearly man-made.
In the Frost Continent, only one kind of people could attack these towns without any punishment — players.
Players were like gods in the Frost Continent, and all the non-players in the Frost Continent were hired to serve them.
Not just simple service, but even their lives belonged to the players.
The circle of players was not as peaceful as it seemed on the surface, and not all players were good people.
After living for a long time and experiencing all kinds of life and death battles, when their fighting spirit was exhausted and there was no hope of advancement, their lives would still have a long time before it ended. At that time, people's hearts would slowly change.
Such players were a danger in the outside world, so they were usually dealt with in the Frost Continent. They could do whatever they wanted as long as they did not go out to harm other continents.
Except for Lighthouse and Polar Night, all the forces adhered to the absolute principle of player supremacy.
This was also one of the important reasons why Lighthouse and Polar Night were ostracized by the world.
Even Wessex and the Tower of Time were conducting live experiments, and did not really treat players and non-players equally.
Li Xiang frowned. If it was really a crazy old player causing trouble, he really could not do anything.
He hoped that the middle-aged leader's family was safe.
But when he walked to the entrance of the villa, this wish came to nothing.
The blood smell that filled the sky came from this building. With such a strong smell of blood, how could there be any living people inside?
The door was tightly shut, just like the other houses on the street, as if it was rejecting all living things from entering.
From time to time, the low growls of wild beasts and the ear-piercing sound of chewing bones could be heard.
"Mutant beast invasion?" Li Xiang was puzzled for a moment, then immediately dismissed this possibility.
If the exotic beasts were to invade through the spatial rift, the Light of Humanity would have long been alerted. How could they possibly allow a few wild beasts to run amok here?
Pushing the door open, Li Xiang was stunned by the smell of blood that assaulted his nostrils.
The originally spacious courtyard was like a purgatory on earth. The ground was littered with broken corpses and the ground that had almost turned into a pool of blood. He had nowhere to go.
A huge beast that resembled both a lion and a tiger was crawling on top of a mountain of corpses. It was still chewing on the corpses with all its might. As it ate, it would occasionally raise its head to look at a man in a trench coat sitting on the eaves.
The man's face was pale and his appearance was feminine. He had a strange sense of beauty. He looked like a bat with fangs exposed and a pair of fleshy wings flapping on his back.
Noticing Li Xiang, who had just stepped through the door, he shot him a displeased look. When he saw Li Xiang's face, his expression changed.
"Little Guai, come back." The man waved at the liger beast, and the beast reluctantly jumped onto the roof from the mountain of corpses, splashing a cloud of dust as it obediently crawled beside him.
The man and Li Xiang looked at each other without saying a word.
Puchi puchi puchi —
The sound of fleshy wings flapping could be heard from the hall. Then, there was a loud bang. The ceiling of the hall suddenly exploded, and a few bird-like monsters flew out from the hall.
There were seven of them in total, and they looked very similar to humans. However, they had a pair of strange wings on their backs like the man. The bones on the wings were obvious and were tightly connected to the body. Their limbs were long and slender, and their fingernails were as sharp as knives.
"Sir Du Li, this little guy is too boring. We agreed to play a killing game together, but he can't stand it at all." A female bird-person's hands were piercing through a small, fragmented corpse. One could vaguely make out the appearance of a little boy.
His eyes were wide open, and his expression was one of pain and despair. It seemed like he had been tortured for an extremely long time before he died.
Ling Lie's gaze shot over.
The female bird-person seemed to have felt Li Xiang's killing intent. Her body trembled slightly, and she subconsciously flew back a short distance.
"I heard that you're the level 1 player who reserved the Gemini Territory?" The man named Du Li finally spoke. His eyes were extremely cold, and he had completely lost his humanity. He caressed the liger with one hand and pointed at Li Xiang with the other. "I want that place."
"You killed them just because of this?" Li Xiang's voice was even colder. It seemed like he would explode at any time.
"He hid the information from the players. I came here a few times, and he said that the territory had been reserved by someone else. However, after I checked, I found that it was only recently applied for for you," Duri said unhurriedly, "Why do we need such a servant?"
The liger roared at Li Xiang in response to its master.
To be able to fight for the Gemini Territory meant that the opponent's ability was below level 3. It seemed like he was a summoning mage.
The seven bird-people hovered in the air and surrounded Li Xiang in the middle. They didn't seem to be afraid of his identity as a player at all.
"Seems like you're an abandoned player," Li Xiang suddenly said to Du Li.
Du Li's expression changed instantly.
That was a thorn in his heart.
He was only a level 2 summoning mage. There was still a lot of room for improvement in the future. However, his courage had been broken after several battles with the Calamities. Now, he would tremble whenever he faced the Calamities. After several futile attempts, he was finally sent to the frozen land by his family to recuperate.
Here, he only faced old players with different personalities. Most of them were crazy. If it weren't for their contributions to the human camp, they would have been imprisoned long ago.
Hanging out with such a group of people not only did not cure his mental illness, but his personality also became more and more twisted. It wasn't the first time something like this had happened to him.
However, no matter how much he turned the world upside down, it couldn't change the fact that his family had abandoned him.
What was worse was that he was the direct descendant of that existence!
The humiliation and inferiority made him hate it when others mentioned this.
"So what? Are we going to die at the Great Wall of Calamity like you guys? There's no way we can win! " Du Li seemed to have thought of something. His pupils constricted, and his body began to tremble. "You just leveled up. What do you know? Do you know how scary and strong the Calamities are? So what if you're a level 2 player? You'll still die without a burial place if you encounter the Calamities. "
"Instead of throwing away my life, I might as well live a carefree life here," Du Li muttered to himself. He seemed to be convincing himself, but also seemed to be convincing Li Xiang.
In Li Xiang's eyes, he was just a sick bastard.
Bang!
He stepped on the giant tree beside him, and the tree shook violently. The towering ancient tree almost snapped in half under his foot. Countless withered yellow leaves scattered down, covering the ground in an instant.
"Master, be careful!"
The female birdwoman shrieked. Li Xiang's figure had already disappeared from her sight. He turned into a shadow and escaped from their encirclement.
Du Li sneered and conjured a summoning gate made of beast corpses. He sprinkled some blood on his hand, and the gate slowly opened. All kinds of terrifying beast roars came from within, shaking the heavens and shaking the earth. It was terrifying.
In terms of summoning magic, he was even stronger than Owl. Owl's elemental summoning gate was a relatively common summoning gate, but such a ferocious beast summoning gate was rare. If it was not used well, there was a high chance that it would backfire on the Magician.
Du Li's eyes revealed a fierce light. Killing this new player was more exciting and interesting to him. As for the punishment, he had already thrown it to the back of his mind.
Was there anything more interesting than killing a genius?
The seven birdwomen seemed to have extremely strong senses. Li Xiang, who had escaped into the void, was still discovered. As soon as his figure appeared, the female birdwoman's sharp claws flew over.
Clang!
The body of the Hall of Annihilation collided with the sharp claws, producing a crisp sound of metal clashing.
The female birdwoman flew back a little in surprise. Retreating when one attack failed was the best way to fight. They were fast, and this was the best way to fight.
This was the first time she had encountered a Source Spear that could not be torn apart by her sharp claws.
Those Source Spears and Magic Weapons were mostly made of black stone. Unless there was a reinforced magic array on the outside, they would definitely not be able to block her sharp claws.
Could this be a high-grade item?
The azure blue body of the Hall of Annihilation did not have any trace of damage, but it caused her fingers to go numb and her body to tremble.
Purify all things!
Li Xiang was too lazy to say anything more. He aimed at the female birdwoman.
The blue light beam shot out, but the female birdwoman revealed a strange smile. A pair of fleshy wings on her back suddenly wrapped around her body. She was actually going to take his spear head on.
"The wings of our Winged Race have extremely strong magic resistance …"
Unfortunately, before she could finish her sentence, her horrifying scream was heard.
Wild beasts rushed out of the summoning gate one by one. Du Li sneered at Li Xiang until the female birdwoman screamed. Only then did he look at the battle, his eyes filled with disbelief.
The fleshy wings of their race were inherited from that supreme Level 9 existence. They had extremely strong magic resistance, and normal attacks were nothing in their eyes.
If it was just a Source Spear attack, the female birdwoman's defense was enough to block it.
But now …
After the blue light passed, her body seemed to have been filtered by something. Her sharp claws faded away, her fleshy wings shrunk, and her body gradually turned into a naked, snow-white woman. She fell from the sky and fell into the sea of corpses.
"I … Puff puff …" The female birdwoman turned back into a human woman. Just as she was about to speak, she choked on a few mouthfuls of blood. It was extremely bitter, and her body was out of control. It became very heavy.
After a closer inspection, she could not even sense magic particles!
How could this be!
Just as she was in a daze, a few more gunshots came from the sky.
The other six birdmen fell one after another. Regardless of gender, they were all like her. The signs of a family descendant had faded away, and they became normal humans. They fell into the blood pool.
Li Xiang looked at them expressionlessly, and raised the Hall of Annihilation in his hand again.
"I advise you not to do anything." Du Li comforted the panicking liger beast. He was like the king of beasts, surrounded by countless huge beasts. "Our Sky Devouring Winged Race is a superpower in the human camp. We are also the only race that has successfully merged humans and other races. The perfect Winged Race bloodline is an important research subject of the Chronometer Tower. If you go against us, no matter who is behind you, they can't protect you. "
"Sky Devouring Winged Race, so it's you." Li Xiang looked at Du Li, and suddenly realized.
They were a new race formed from the combination of humans and Winged Race. The reason why they were so famous was that in many experiments, this race had perfectly merged the strengths of the two races and eliminated the weaknesses.
This was because one of the first combinations was the famous Level 9 player, the Sky Devouring Winged Queen!
The other party was the Queen of the Winged Race.
The combination of the two successfully gave birth to perfect descendants. As time passed, they gradually formed the huge Sky Devouring Winged Race today.
However, not every member of the Sky Devouring Winged Race could inherit the bloodline. Most of the descendants were either Winged Race or humans. Only a few of them could become Sky Devouring Winged Race, which was the Birdman form in front of him.
These Birdmen had the characteristics of both races. They had the physical characteristics, physique, and talents of the Winged Race. They could also become magic users or even players like humans. Their combat power was even more extraordinary.
These seven Birdmen were all pinnacle Level-3 Magicians. If they worked together, they could indeed give a Level-1 player a headache.
To be able to become a player in the form of a Birdman, they must be an important descendant of the Sky Devouring Winged Race.
Although Du Li had been abandoned, the family still arranged for these seven followers to be by his side. It was obvious that the family valued his bloodline very much.
Even if he couldn't improve further, he could at least become a stallion and produce more excellent descendants for the family.
He sneered at Li Xiang. As long as he used the name of the ancestor, no players would dare to make things difficult for him.
The Sky Devouring Winged King was currently the most famous Level-9 player. He was also a rising star and had a long time to continue cultivating. Angering a Level-9 player like this was courting death.
He thought that Li Xiang would be so frightened that his expression would change and he would quickly escape. However, before Du Li could speak, he heard a muffled gunshot.
Heaven of Annihilation's initial state assassination skill III, Aurora Purification.
The blue light was so hot that it made people close their eyes. It directly melted the seven Birdmen in the sea of blood. Even their flesh, bones, souls, and their existence were turned into nothingness.
Not only them, but the sea of blood below was also cleansed.
After the blue light dissipated, the ground was as clean as water.
It was as if nothing had happened.
"You!" Du Li trembled with fear. He didn't expect the other party to disregard the reputation of the Sky Devouring Winged Race and still kill him!
Moreover, the other party was only a Level-1 player, but he gave him a fatal sense of threat.
"Go, tear him apart!"
Countless wild beasts roared. They were not native to the seven continents and were extremely terrifying. They all rushed toward Li Xiang, wanting to tear him apart instantly.
Bang!
Li Xiang punched the head of the Giant Elephant at the front, causing its brain to explode. The mountain-like corpse collapsed with a loud bang.
Li Xiang, who was among the wild beasts, was more like a wild beast. He used his hands to tear apart their indestructible bodies as easily as tearing paper.
Du Li looked at this horrifying scene and finally realized that something was wrong.
"Xiao Guai …"
Before the Liger Beast could rush out, its head was pressed down by a girl who walked out of the void.
Ming Xu grinned. His gentle voice made him tremble. "Let's play a killing game. You're the player, and I'm the disaster. Let's start now."
