In the past three days, the night watchers had been trembling in fear. Rita had been trembling in fear. Li Xiang had been trembling in fear. Even though the entire Ice Scar City was no longer involved in the endless bloody battle, everyone was still trembling in fear.
The violent snowstorm in Iceshen City had stopped.
Anyone who knew a little about the history of this ancient stronghold knew what this meant.
After several days of bloody battles, the defenders of the city changed yet again. Magic users flowed through the Great Wall of Disaster like water, wave after wave. Very few people were able to survive. This was also why being exiled to the Great Wall of Disaster for a year was tantamount to death.
Even if they joined the Night Watchers, many players could not survive a year of bloody battles, let alone these Magicians. The power they were proud of was nothing here. Even resisting the mutant waves was very difficult, not to mention the disaster attacks that could fall at any time.
Even so, they still did not want to die.
Only in this place would the meaning of life be valued.
Li Xiang patrolled on the city wall every day. Since the defensive buildings at the back were completed, the city guards did not have to endure the cold wind and snow to patrol the city wall all night.
What replaced their work were mechanical creatures that did not know fatigue and pain.
Now, their living environment was better, and they were no longer short of resources. Even the most terrifying snowstorm had stopped.
However, they could not sleep.
Li Xiang walked from the beginning to the end again and again, staring at the sea of stars.
Black fog covered that place. Ever since the Frost King woke up that day, the mutant army retreated like the tide. Then, the chattering disasters also left the security area of Iceshen City.
Three days, at most three days. If the Frost King was going to make a move, there would be signs soon.
However, after three days, nothing happened.
On the morning of the fourth day, Li Xiang, who was patrolling with the Red-Bladed Snake Blade, saw the sea of stars fill with brilliant starlight. Then, countless mutants rushed further away. The originally dark coastline returned to its normal state.
He was finally sure that this wave of attacks was over.
For some reason, Fei Yujing and the others chose to give up.
The good news spread out immediately. The warriors of the Ice Scar City all hugged each other and cried. The pressure of being on the edge of life and death for the past few days was even more exhausting than the bloody battle.
Against the xenogeneics and Disasters, even if they died, they could still fight. But if the enemy was a Dominator, they couldn't even think about fighting back.
Just like when he faced the White King, it was a reverence that spread from the depths of his soul.
After the cheers, new missions came one after another.
The second phase of the Great Wall of Disaster's mechanization project could not be neglected. This time, it was all thanks to the mechanization that they were able to hold their ground. Thus, no one objected to Li Xiang's plan, and they all did their best to carry it out. Some even helped him create mechanical creatures.
The other strongholds were still in dire straits, but there was nothing he could do. Ice Scar City did not even have enough manpower to protect itself, let alone reinforce the other strongholds.
The seven continents remained motionless, but an undercurrent was brewing in the turbulent situation.
Ji Zhanxue had nowhere to vent his anger. In the end, he chose an unlucky person to bear his wrath.
In just one night, the Ogheim Family was reduced to ashes.
This was a silent warning to Ji Ruoyu.
Unfortunately, he did not know that Finis was no longer the God's favored son that the Ogheim Family regarded as the only successor. He was a genuine anthropomorphic Disaster. Although he had been purified by Li Xiang, his identity had not changed, and he had no feelings for the Ogheim Family.
Using this opportunity, Ji Ruoyu simply sent Finis back to her own player territory to avoid her father's anger. As for the Ogheim Family, the collapse of an Aristocratic Family naturally attracted countless wolves to fight for food. No matter how glorious they had been, there was only endless sorrow when a behemoth fell.
Li Xiang still remembered the scene when he went to clean up the He Family. Sometimes, humans were even scarier than Disasters. They used the name of cleaning up the He Family and wantonly humiliated them, killing them all. That kind of deep despair was engraved in his heart.
This was also the reason why he had risked everything to protect the new Polar Night when the new Polar Night fell.
He did not want to see the people he had once been close to fall to the same fate.
The Ogheim Family was removed from the list of Aristocratic Families, and the Aristocratic Family Alliance also had an empty spot. This was very rare in the past, and after some maneuvering, the empty spot was smoothly taken over by the She Family.
Many people did not expect this result.
Ever since Li Xiang had established the Scarlet Moon, they had all silently agreed that this rising star would one day join the ranks of Aristocratic Families.
However, he had not done so.
Joining the Aristocratic Family Alliance and working with them would allow him to obtain large amounts of resources from the human faction. This was something that countless Aristocratic Families valued.
With resources, they could nurture talents. With enough talents, they could produce players, and players were the true rulers of this world.
This was a truth that had never changed since time immemorial.
Unfortunately, they did not know that whether it was in terms of Origin Substance resources or weapons, the Scarlet Moon possessed more frightening resources than the Aristocratic Family Alliance.
They did not need to rely on this platform to strengthen themselves.
Li Xiang was now wondering what had happened on the other side of the galaxy.
With Fei Yujing's personality, she would not give up halfway unless there was something beyond her control.
She must have secretly awakened the Frost Emperor. No matter what Fei Yujing's original goal was, it made Li Xiang feel slightly uneasy.
The Frost Emperor reminded him of the Sky Monarch's corpse that had almost been devoured by Fei Yujing in the Sky Race ruins.
Even so, even the new Polar Night would find it difficult to extend their reach into Galaxy.
"No matter what, retreating is a good thing."
Li Xiang comforted himself like this, but he had a feeling that a new round of battles would soon arrive. At that time, Fei Yujing, who had made a comeback, would become his greatest enemy.
Within Galaxy.
A massive battleship slowly descended, landing on a pitch-black, lightless island.
There were frightening Void Storms all around, and the slightest carelessness would cause one to be sucked into them. After going through the Void several times, no one would be able to return.
A human battleship had actually landed on an island. This was a spectacle that had not occurred in thousands of years.
A group of Mutants on the island peeked in and howled.
Many of them already had elementary intelligence, and were very different from the other Mutants scattered in Galaxy.
Noticing this, Ji Zhanxue, who had walked down from the battleship, frowned.
The female adjutant behind him trembled in fear. This was the base of the Disaster Camp! She was just a mere Level-1 Magician, and had never seen a Mutant in her life, let alone this kind of situation.
She now regretted begging Ji Zhanxue to bring her here.
Just one look at the monsters hiding in the dark made her heart race. Her rationality was evaporating, and negative emotions were accumulating.
She was going crazy.
There was no light here at all.
"Don't be afraid, I've cast a spell on you to resist negative emotions. It won't cause any substantial damage to you." Ji Zhanxue smiled. The spell could effectively help the female adjutant avoid harm, but it could not help her resist the natural fear that arose in her heart.
"Yes, yes … General."
Ji Zhanxue scanned his surroundings. This was the first time he had come to Disaster Island. When he was young, he had come to Galaxy, and the memories of his near-death experience had sapped his will to fight. Since then, Ji Zhanxue had never fought with Disaster again.
If not for the secret message he received from the Two-Moon Lord and the Sky-Devouring Winged Monarch, he would not have come to this damned place.
Not far away in the black fog stood a girl in a white shirt and a white dress. She carried a shabby box in her hand, and the cold wind blew her hair. She looked lonely and desolate.
"The Lady invites you, follow me." There was still no light in the eyes of the Thousand-Toothed Shadow, but the human language had become very fluent. If not for the Disaster aura that even the female adjutant could sense, Ji Zhanxue would have thought that she was a human!
"Remember, from now on, don't leave my side." Ji Zhanxue whispered to the female adjutant behind him, and then released his domain to cover both of them.
The girl in the white dress was a Level-A Disaster! She was at least comparable to a Level-6 human player. Even if he was Level-7, he would not dare to underestimate her.
It seemed that she was just a maid of the island's owner. It seemed that the Two-Moon Lord and the rest had really contacted a Monarch Disaster.
The kind that was anthropomorphic.
The Thousand-Toothed Shadow walked in front, and they followed closely behind. In the middle of the island was a pitch-black Thorn Castle. It was gorgeous, and the architectural style was very similar to that of humans.
In the castle's restaurant, Fei Yujing was waiting for them at the head of the table.
The Frost Monarch's black fire had been transferred to her body. At the same time, to recover its strength, it had fallen into a new deep sleep. However, this time, it had changed to a resting place that no one knew about.
Of course, this was not something she could do.
Lancelot and Bai Lili had to work together to forcibly transplant the black fire into her body.
Lancelot admired Fei Yujing's ambition and madness. Ever since he became a Disaster, he had changed from a quiet player to a crazy and evil dominator. Bai Lili, on the other hand, was purely out of curiosity.
She had given Fei Yujing power because she wanted to see how far she could go in the end.
Fei Yujing did not expect Bai Lili's clone to be hidden in the galaxy.
Under normal circumstances, the combat strength of a magic clone was at most a Level-3 player. It was not enough in the galaxy. However, this clone of hers had forced the enraged Frost Monarch to retreat!
The Frost Monarch was the dominator of the old era. It did not have human consciousness, only instinct. However, to force it to retreat instinctively, it was clear that this magic clone was enough to threaten the Frost Monarch's existence!
Even though its strength had been greatly reduced by the black fire, it was still a true dominator!
Fei Yujing's sense of pride that had just risen disappeared after seeing this couple.
They seemed to have a private bet. Bai Lili left the Thousand-Toothed Shadow by her side and left.
Lancelot did not intend to interfere with her evolution. He only instructed her to complete this meeting and then make a comeback to conquer Ice Scar City.
Seeing that the head of the table was actually a human girl, the female adjutant exclaimed softly.
She did not do it on purpose. She knew this girl!
"Fei Yujing … Junior?"
There was no mistake. She was Fei Yujing from Keihoku University, the girl who had once been famous in City 0001 but had fallen.
The female adjutant had met her at a banquet for the children of an aristocratic family.
Although the Fei family was attached to the 16th branch family, they were still unable to enter the upper class of City 0001. For the sake of her family and to go to a higher place, Fei Yujing had used her beauty and strength to get acquainted with many young men from aristocratic families.
At first, the female adjutant had thought that she would walk the same path as them, selling her body to gain the favor of these young men. Therefore, she had taken the initiative to befriend her.
She did not expect Fei Yujing to be sitting here with such an identity in just a few years.
Ji Zhanxue was shocked to hear her words.
He did not know this girl, but he had heard of her name. After all, she had so many entanglements with Li Xiang. In the end, she had betrayed the human camp and fallen into Disaster. However, he did not expect that she would be the master of this island!
No wonder these mutants had basic human thinking.
The master of the island would absorb countless mutants as vassals. While absorbing their power, he would also give them his own soul imprint.
These mutants would gradually show some of the master's characteristics over the long years of evolution.
There was no need to mention how scary the anthropomorphic xenogeneics were. Given enough time, her army would become a nightmare for humans.
"Please have a seat." Fei Yujing pointed to the empty seat next to her. The table was filled with all kinds of food. Just looking at it, the female adjutant found it difficult to eat.
Although they were all cooked according to human preferences, the raw materials were either Disaster or mutants …
The Human-Faced Arachnid's body was cut into pieces and fried in a platter. The mutant bug's meat was scattered into pieces and made into braised meat.
Fei Yujing put a knife and fork into her mouth and chewed. Seeing that they did not eat, she was a little unhappy.
"Don't worry, I don't eat humanoid creatures. These mutants and Disaster have all had their toxins removed. Eat."
Since the master had said so, it would be disrespectful if they did not eat.
Ji Zhanxue bit the bullet and ate a piece of mutant bug meat. It tasted pretty good.
The female adjutant did not dare to eat it. She was just an ordinary person. How could she have such strong mental fortitude?
It was good enough that she did not feel nauseous.
"Senior Sister, did you just start working under General Ji?" Fei Yujing did not force her. She clapped her hands and a few ghostly figures sat down one by one.
The Thousand-Toothed Shadow sat in the first seat on her left. The white thigh on the plate was particularly eye-catching.
"Yes, yes …" She was almost out of breath with so many Disaster sitting around her.
And what was that beautiful girl in the white dress eating? She looked at her thigh subconsciously.
The atmosphere was tense.
"Little Yu, can I eat her?" The Thousand-Toothed Shadow wiped the blood from her mouth. Her voice was clear.
She still liked to call Fei Yujing Little Yu. This was the setting her mother gave her. As for Miss, it was Fei Yujing's request.
Because there was only one person who had called her this all along.
Fei Yujing frowned slightly, but she knew that no matter what she said, she could not change Bai Lili's bad taste. She could only give up.
The Thousand-Toothed Shadow looked no different from a young human girl, but she was actually a very cruel Disaster. Countless humans had died in her mouth. In her eyes, there was no difference between friend and foe.
There was only food and food reserves.
The female adjutant shuddered and looked at Ji Zhanxue for help.
"Don't scare our guests. If you want to eat, aren't there many in the dungeon?" Fei Yujing glanced at her.
The Thousand-Toothed Shadow showed a confused expression.
"But they have lost their humanity. I like to eat humans who are full of fear."
"Then let's go to Ice Scar City next time." Fei Yujing interrupted her and turned to Ji Zhanxue. "Alright, General Ji, let's get down to business first. It looks like you have no appetite."
