"Yes, Sir!" Qin Hu was Qin Youheng's most trusted subordinate. He was able to rise from a commoner to a level 1 player. At the same time, he was able to live a good life in a super family. He would be considered a genius in any place.
The reason he was able to reach his current level was because he had an indomitable attitude when looking at problems and doing things. He did not think too much, nor did he have too many misgivings. When he was still weak, he had followed Qin Youheng, who had not yet made a name for himself, closely following his footsteps and never leaving him. No matter what order he was given, he would strictly carry it out, regardless of whether it was right or wrong. This was how he was able to reach his current level.
The orphanage wasn't a big deal. Dale and Ji Zhanxue must have looked into it before. After all, Yu Zhitong was born there. Her mother, Bai Zhitong, was afraid that General Othello would find out, so she secretly sent Yu Zhitong to the orphanage. After the fire, they didn't even know if Yu Zhitong was still alive.
However, the strange thing was that the results of the two players' investigation were the same. They didn't suspect anything about the orphanage, which confused Li Xiang.
Thinking back, when Bai Shanshan was looking for the owner of the Book of Prophecy, she only focused on the city of Hou. Bai Shanshan happened to see Ye Tong by chance.
Before that, he was sure that they didn't know that Ye Tong was in the city of Hou. In other words, how did Bai Lili send her son and daughter to the orphanage and how did she hide it from the Bai family?
What did Bai Lili do to fool the White King so that he couldn't find their hiding place?
Secondly, from the way the White King doted on Ye Tong, and the way he took care of Li Xiang, it was clear that he did not reject the siblings. So why did he not bring them back from the orphanage?
If it was only because the Book of Prophecy recognized Ye Tong as its owner, why would the White King love Ye Tong so much?
That didn't make sense!
If the two of them had been living under the White King's watch, why didn't he take them back when the Book of Prophecy recognized Ye Tong as its owner?
Dale's level was too low, so Li Xiang could understand why she was kept in the dark. Ji Zhanxue was so focused on getting more benefits from General Othello that he subconsciously ignored this ordinary orphanage, which made sense.
However, the White King remained silent. That was very strange.
"He was once the number one genius of the seven continents. He liked his sister but watched her fall into the Disaster camp. He went to the Eternal Gate but seemed to have lost Lancelot's life because of fear. After that, he initiated Operation Night Rain and personally killed Bai Lili, whom he thought had gone mad. He cut her up and sealed her up."
"After that, he completely led the Bai Family to the peak. He became the leader of the Five Kings, the number one player, the Supreme White King. He hated everything related to the Calamities. He was unfriendly towards the border, Lord Polar night, and Lighthouse Academy."
"The Black King loves power, the Dong Ling King pursues ultimate power, the Shield King defends the human camp, and the Moon King breeds descendants for generations for the Emperor Clan. What about the White King? What does he want?"
The more Li Xiang thought about it, the more his head hurt. Many details were missing, and he could not connect them. However, they seemed to fit together. To solve these problems, he had to first dig out the secret of the orphanage. Then, he could only talk to the White King face to face.
Without realizing it, the two of them had already left the boundary of Ice Scar City. They were walking on a long snowy road, and there was no one else in sight.
The weather conditions here were harsh, and the geographical environment was terrible. There were very few people here. If it were not for the sake of linking all the strongholds together, the roads here might not even have been built.
Fortunately, the two of them were both players. They moved quickly and left Ice Scar City. Without the suppression of the Monarch Grade Calamity, the wind and snow could not cause them any trouble.
"The current Commander of the Beast Arena is Lord Kou Ruhai. It is said that in the last Blood War, the Beast Arena almost collapsed. The previous Commander of the Garrison sacrificed his life to seal an extremely powerful Grade-A Calamity, allowing them to survive. Lord Kou Ruhai, who was exiled there, took over this position and temporarily assumed the role of Commander," Qin Hu explained.
His meaning was very clear. Kou Ruhai was also involved in this incident. Qin Youheng naturally could not abandon this subordinate of his. He arranged for him to stay by Kou Ruhai's side to protect him, and at the same time, to strengthen his own manpower at the Great Wall of Calamity.
However, he was most likely cooperating with Kou Ruhai as a partner of the new Polar Night. Kou Ruhai did not know that he was the holder of the Great Arcana Card of the Tarot Card.
White snow covered the land.
After crossing this mountain, the originally cold temperature instantly rose. The influence of the weather was obvious only in the area around Ice Scar City. After leaving this area, it was as if they had returned to the human world. The autumn air was crisp, and the autumn leaves fluttered in the wind. The scenery was as beautiful as a painting.
Half a month later, the two of them successfully arrived at the Beast Arena.
Compared to the snowy Ice Scar City, the Beast Arena stronghold was more like an ancient human tribe. The entire place was filled with a primitive aura. Regardless of gender, they were all wearing animal skin clothes, exposing most of their skin. The atmosphere was thick with farming. There were almost no modern mechanical devices here. Only the rows of mechanical cannons erected on the walls reminded him that he was living in an era of rapid development in the mechanical industry.
"Are you surprised? The Beast Arena is the only place in the large stronghold that specializes in farming and animal husbandry. The meat of the stronghold is transported from here. It's very fortunate to be able to eat meat on the Great Wall of Disaster. "
Kou Ruhai, who was also wearing animal skin, slowly walked out from behind him. He had a strong aura. At this age, he should have retired long ago, but he was constantly on the battlefield. If he had not promised Night Shadow to become the chief instructor of the Polar Night, he might have retired long ago as an honorary general of the military.
Perhaps he would have been able to obtain a large piece of land in the cold continent, away from the disputes, and live out his remaining years in peace.
However, after becoming the chief instructor, he was destined to never be able to live that kind of life again. As the price for protecting the new Polar Night, he was voluntarily exiled to the Great Wall of Disaster and would never be able to return.
The only outcome was to die in battle.
Looking at the former chief instructor, Li Xiang's eyes slowly became misty.
He had suffered too much for himself and for the Polar Night.
"Good job, kid. You've even managed the new Polar Night so well. To be honest, the few days you were the chief instructor were much better than the years I was." Kou Ruhai had a gratified expression as he patted him on the shoulder. "I don't understand business planning. The only thing I'm proud of is that I've trained so many outstanding graduates, but you've managed to make the best use of them. Amazing!"
"Chief Instructor …"
"You're the chief instructor. You can just call me teacher. You're the same as your master, Night Shadow. You're my favorite disciple."
"Yes, teacher."
"Haha, you've worked hard this time. I didn't expect that kid Qin Youheng to be willing to help the new Polar Night. The Qin Family is not only an important right-hand man of the Bai Family, but also an important family in the military. If that's the case, Ji Zhanxue will have to consider his own strength before dealing with you. "
Although he was at the Great Wall of Disaster, Kou Ruhai still had his own channels to obtain information about the Seven Continents.
He was still unable to truly abandon his past and devote himself to the Night Watch like the other Night Watchers.
He had dedicated his entire life to the Polar Night. How could he bear to lose the news of the Polar Night?
"I killed Kong Mu and Xiao, which is equivalent to cutting off his two arms. This time, I killed Du Li and completely offended the Sky Swallowing Wing King. I can only hope that they won't be crazy enough to attack me now." Li Xiang smiled bitterly. But if he didn't do it, then those graduates who died at the hands of the Kong Family would have died in vain.
Those who died would not be remembered, and the new Polar Night would also be looked down upon.
"Good job! Do you know what people are calling you now? "
Kou Ruhai clapped his hands and looked at him.
"Polar Night Player. Just like Lord Polar Night, he used the name Polar Night, but he was only a Polar Night Magician. You, on the other hand, have two professions and have been recognized by everyone as the new leader of the Polar Night. This title is well deserved. "
"I will live up to this title." Li Xiang nodded solemnly.
"Alright, Qin Hu has been sent. But according to the agreement with Qin Youheng, this person will die on the battlefield in the next Blood Battle. Then, I will arrange for someone to send him back to the Seven Continents," Kou Ruhai said faintly.
Li Xiang was shocked when he heard this. "This … A Night Watchman leaving his post is a great crime. The garrison commander and Lord Night King will be held accountable."
"Under normal circumstances, this is the case. However, the document about Qin Hu being sent to the Great Wall of Disaster is fake. This is mostly a political issue, so you don't have to pay too much attention to it. " Kou Ruhai shook his head and looked at him. He said word by word, "The Night Watchman Army was established by Lord Night King. For hundreds of years, it has been on the frontlines of fighting against disasters. Every member was previously a famous person in the Seven Continents. They were sent here because they couldn't resist. If you really join the Night Watchman Army, you must follow the army's rules. As for the city guards who aren't Night Watchmen, there are naturally many places where you can bend the rules.
"Qin Hu isn't a Night Watchman, so he doesn't have the right to join. Once you join the army, you will understand."
Li Xiang could only nod. Otherwise, he would have been having a headache trying to figure out how to get Qin Hu to spread the news about him. Now, the problem had been solved.
When he saw the primitive life in the Beast Arena, Li Xiang was once again tempted to modify the Great Wall of Disaster.
When he heard Su Chen's words, Kou Ruhai could only laugh bitterly.
"Everyone understands the problem, but right now, the borders are in chaos, so they can't take care of this side. Out of the Seven Continents, do you think there are any factions that are willing to take the risk and come help us? The problem is that there are no benefits! Do you get anything in return for funding the Great Wall of Disaster? The Night Watchmen can't leave, so there's nothing in return.
"Right now, our greatest support comes from Wessex, the Chronometer Tower, and the player support teams. Wessex has already been handed over to Miss Cecilia, but her stance is still unclear. As the only person who has control over the Origin Substance extraction technology, no one can force her to do anything. If, and I'm saying if, she isn't willing to continue funding the Great Wall of Disaster, then our harsh winter will truly arrive. As for the Chronometer Tower, because we continuously provide them with mutant corpses, they've received quite a bit of funding, so they're still relatively stable. As for the player support teams, they're just partners who occasionally carry out missions, so they won't be of much help in defending against the disaster. "
This was the current situation of the Great Wall of Disaster.
"Even though the new Polar night is still in its infancy, it shouldn't be a problem to support a portion of the resources here. My idea is to rebuild the Great Wall of Disaster, but living conditions like this won't do." Li Xiang sighed. "As for Cecilia, I have a plan. I just find it hard to believe that they're not afraid of the Great Wall of Disaster collapsing? "
"If it collapses, they can just build another one. Even if that doesn't work, can't they just defend their own continent? Of the Five Kings, only the Shield King has been supporting the borders. In the past, he often sent his descendants to the Great Wall of Disaster to train, but as the Ochs Family grew stronger, how could those fellows, who had lived peacefully for many years, be willing to put themselves in danger again? "
Kou Ruhai turned around to look at the sea of stars in the distance, his eyes filled with sorrow.
Li Xiang couldn't understand this line of thought at all, but when he thought about it carefully, it made sense.
If it were someone else, would they be willing to risk their lives to come here to defend against the disaster? The Great Wall of Disaster was known as a land of death, and it wasn't an exaggeration.
After witnessing a bloody battle, he deeply realized that there was not much difference between coming here and dying.
Why would those who lived in the Seven Continents be willing to come here? Unless they had no other choice.
But this way, not taking the initiative to defend against the enemy, or even deliberately ignoring them, would only make the situation worse.
Li Xiang looked at him for a long time before slowly saying, "I'll send a letter back and have the new Polar night shift its focus to the Great Wall of Disaster. This place can't fall."
Kou Ruhai looked at him deeply, but didn't say anything.
.....
Late at night, Li Xiang, who was arranged to rest in the castle, tossed and turned, unable to sleep. He hadn't been at the Great Wall of Disaster for long, but the heavy atmosphere here already made it difficult for him to breathe.
In this life, he only wanted to obtain more power so that no one could easily separate him and Ye Tong.
Now, he had become a dual-profession player and the famous leader of the new Polar night, and as long as he wanted, he could truly return to the Bai Family.
All the obstacles in front of him were gone.
He also had a girl he loved deeply, and if he wanted, he had countless ways to let himself, Ye Tong, and Ming Xu live together without any worries until death.
Wasn't this the kind of life that he had dreamed of in his previous life? And there was also Ming Xu, who was worthy of his love for the rest of his life.
It could be said that although this life had been bumpy, it had been perfect.
The only regret was that he didn't stop Fei Yujing from falling into the Disaster camp, but as long as she appeared again, Li Xiang was willing to try again.
But at this point, he already had too many ties, too many people and things that he couldn't let go of, and he had witnessed the Polar night and the other Sages and Warriors protecting the human camp. It would be a lie to say that he wasn't moved.
He had an even heavier mission and responsibility. Running away might be good, but he couldn't be at ease.
Polar night players.
Polar night was coming, and dawn was just around the corner.
His promise to them had to be fulfilled.
Thinking of this, Li Xiang got up, lit the steam lamp, and began to write a letter.
"To Ming Xu …"
After writing these four words, he scribbled, added the word "dear" in front of it, and then deleted it. Then, his pen flowed smoothly. The moonlight shone down and dyed his cheeks white.
