At dawn, Li Xiang bade farewell to the garrison commander of Oak Shield Stronghold and rushed back to Ice Scar City accompanied by two Night Watchers.
There was a problem with Oak Shield's mechanization project. They did not have a good mechanic to solve it, so they had to ask Ice Scar City for help.
The nineteen strongholds of the Great Wall of Disaster were bound together for good or ill. Rita had asked Li Xiang to rush here to rescue them, but no one had expected that such a secret operation would be noticed by someone.
Hearing that Li Xiang had almost died on the way to his stronghold, the garrison commander of Oak Shield Stronghold was shocked and angry. Despite the difficulty of the battle, he still sent two experienced Night Watchers to accompany him back.
The Night Watchers of the Great Wall of Disaster were a faction of their own. Even though there was not much contact between the strongholds, the relationship between them was very deep. Li Xiang was wearing the black robe of the Night Watchers. Whether he was a permanent member or a temporary member who had been exiled for a year, he was now one of them.
With the protection of the two old Night Watchers, Li Xiang's return journey was very smooth. However, he was careful this time. He only let the two seniors leave when he stepped into the territory of Ice Scar City.
In Ice Scar City, no one would dare to assassinate Li Xiang even if they were given a hundred guts.
No matter which family or force, they did not have the resources to fight against the entire Great Wall of Disaster. If they angered the Night King, only the White King could calm her anger.
Li Xiang went to look for Rita immediately, but he saw Lie Kong's figure in Ice Scar Castle.
She was wearing a tight black combat suit. The curves of her body were very alluring. At that moment, she was leaning against a stone pillar with one leg propped up. Her face was filled with worry and anger.
"There, he's here just as we were talking about him." Rita sat on the main seat casually and waved at Li Xiang. "You're not dead. Even I'm shocked."
"…" Li Xiang rolled his eyes at her and looked at Lie Kong.
When Lie Kong saw him, his eyes suddenly became misty. He then bit his lips and sighed.
"What's going on?" Li Xiang asked Lie Kong in a low voice when he sensed that the atmosphere was a little strange.
Rita knew that they had something to discuss about the new Polar night, so she left the hall with her men and closed the door behind her.
Hunting Air only said slowly after everyone left, "Our Scarlet Heavy Industry branch in Lancelot Manor has been uprooted."
"What?!" Li Xiang almost shouted out loud. He looked into Lie Kong's eyes and took a few deep breaths. After calming himself down, he continued to ask, "When did this happen? What's the exact situation?"
"Not long after you were attacked, Lancelot Manor was suddenly attacked violently. That was our heavy industry division, and there were many mechanics and producers living there. The enemy clearly knew about it. They came aggressively, and the entire division was reduced to nothing overnight."
Lie Kong clenched his fists so hard that his fingers almost turned white.
This matter had never been told to Li Xiang through other channels because they were worried that there was a traitor in the new Polar night.
She continued.
"All the incomplete blueprints were taken away. Our people in the division were all killed, and … and …"
"What else?" Li Xiang's face was calm at the moment, and he looked very calm. Lie Kong knew that Li Xiang was the angriest when he was in this state.
The angrier he was, the calmer he looked.
"Sister No.1 … and the most important blueprint storage chip. It's missing."
No.1 was the only executive that Li Xiang had entrusted to the heavy industry division back then.
At that time, Li Xiang had just taken over The Fool's Sect. Lancelot Manor was located in the extreme north, and there was an old tarot card player guarding it. It was the tarot card's secret base, and it was also Lancelot's old residence. Nobody would have thought about it.
No.1 had the most intimate contact with him. Although she was just an ordinary Magic Apprentice, the first woman always had some weight in Li Xiang's heart. Moreover, the two of them had always been close. From the Sky Arena to the establishment of Crimson Moon, they had been together step by step.
Considering her ability, Li Xiang had decided to let No.1 go to Lancelot Manor so that she could avoid the focus of the battle.
Indeed, Lancelot Manor had not been affected in the past few major incidents.
However, why this time …
"Tell me the results, the results of your investigation," Li Xiang suppressed his anger and said calmly.
Lie Kong glanced at him and took out his communication device to turn on the screen. A huge amount of information poured out.
"We can confirm that the following families were involved in the attack this time …" Lie Kong pointed at them one by one and introduced them as quickly as he could. Finally, he pointed at a name. "Ji Zhanxue, the head of the Military Police Department. He's the only senior officer who worked with the Evil Leader Sect this time.
"The assassination plan this time is most likely a fatal blow that he and the Evil Leader Sect have planned to kill you. After the plan failed, these aristocratic families immediately attacked Lancelot's manor. Since they've fallen out with you, they won't care so much anymore."
If the assassination this time had disappointed Li Xiang in the Seven Continents Family Alliance, then the attack this time had made him lose all hope in this group of people.
"No.1, send someone to find No.1 first. As for the rest, I'll take care of it. You can go back now. "
After saying that, Li Xiang turned around and left the Ice Scar Castle.
Looking at his back, Lie Kong let out a deep sigh.
She knew that Li Xiang was going to break off all ties with the Family Alliance.
.....
In the Far North.
An airship bearing the insignia of Winterzero Heavy Industries was patrolling at a low altitude over the vast snowy plains. Heavy snow swirled about in the snowy plains, covering the continuous mountain ranges and forests in a beautiful layer of pure white. Occasionally, a snowy animal would flash by at high speed and disappear from sight in the blink of an eye, but no signs of human habitation had appeared.
Closing her eyes to rest, Ming Xu, who was still wearing her navy blue suit and dark red short skirt, sat in the cabin. Beside her was a pure white exquisite pistol.
She had received the Lunar Shadow Frost a few days ago. It was the first Disaster Weapon that Li Xiang had made.
Li Xiang had poured his heart and soul into this weapon. Countless of his understanding of firearms were also reflected in it. It was a pure killing weapon and Ming Xu loved it very much.
As if she had sensed something, Ming Xu suddenly opened her eyes and pointed at the void. Her voice was cold but sweet.
"Fly there."
"Yes, Miss Ming Xu." The captain and pilot wearing the uniform of Dong Ling Heavy Industries immediately obeyed the order. They turned the airship 360 degrees, changed direction, and accelerated.
Ever since she had been crowned as the first successor of the Dong Ling Family, this young girl, who had not appeared in front of the Dong Ling Family for more than ten years, had forcefully interfered with various businesses and branches.
She was an assassin trained by the First Lady. Some of the older people knew that Ming Xu had taken on many assassination missions since she was young.
From killing magic apprentices to killing players.
Ming Xu's hands were stained with the blood of countless people. Compared to her peers, she had a strong pungent smell of blood on her. Usually, she would not communicate with any of her family members. In the eyes of these Dong Ling Family members, Ming Xu was a terrifying God of Death.
No one knew who had angered this murderous god this time, but she had rushed back from the distant Zero Hour Origin Form. She had picked up an airship and rushed to the extreme north in a fit of anger.
Ming Xu's strength was different from the First Lady's.
For the First Lady to reach her current position, who knew how many lives of the Winterzero family were in her hands? She was strong, but she was fickle. No one could predict what the First Lady was thinking. They could only guess at her thoughts with trepidation, afraid that one wrong move would cause their entire family to be killed.
Ming Xu's strength was different.
In her eyes, there seemed to be only two things: order and execution. Once she appeared in front of you, she was going to give you a certain order. You only had one task, which was to strictly carry out her orders.
She would not communicate with you, talk to you, or do whatever she wanted like the First Lady.
But once Ming Xu made up her mind, no one could change it.
She only wanted you to obey or die.
This kind of strength was even more terrifying than the First Lady's.
For the latter, they could still figure out the First Lady's thoughts and target her. But for the former, you only had two choices.
In Ming Xu's eyes, it seemed that the entire Dong Ling Family was just a tool.
Or rather, did she really have other people in her eyes?
Actually, she did. It was just that people at their level could never come into contact with them.
The captain's imagination ran wild and he trembled in fear. He turned back and suddenly found the Young Miss standing quietly behind him. He was so frightened that he almost broke the steering wheel.
"M-Young Miss …"
"I want to go down, but …" Ming Xu was expressionless. "I don't know how to open the cabin door."
The captain fell over instantly!
He had forgotten that this Young Miss was a famous mechanical idiot. He hurriedly opened the cabin door and was just about to lower the airship so that Ming Xu could jump out. But when he turned back, he only saw a corner of clothes flash past the cabin door.
Ming Xu began to run as soon as she landed.
Ming Xu's greatest strengths were her keen intuition, astonishing assassination talents, and terrifying speed. After becoming an assassin, Ming Xu's advantage in speed became more and more obvious. She dashed madly through the snow, turning into a gray streak in the blink of an eye. Her speed wasn't inferior to a normal flying airship.
Soon, she arrived at the original landing site.
There were some corpses on the snow, the blood not yet dry. Most of the corpses had been stripped of their clothes and equipment. Ming Xu squatted down to check the wounds of the corpses. In the eyes of an experienced assassin, wounds were people who could speak. She quickly reconstructed the whole story of the battle.
Some of the corpses were identifiable. The insignia was the symbol of the new Polar night.
Ming Xu walked around the corpses a few times, then bent down and pointed at the snow around her. She put her snow-stained finger to the tip of her nose and finally locked onto a mountain range not far away.
She continued to run at an astonishing speed. In the blink of an eye, she was in front of the mountain range.
In her eyes, a small group of soldiers walked out of a large cave. They were talking and laughing, carrying the weapons and equipment of the new Polar night warriors.
These soldiers were wearing military police uniforms. They were the elites of the elites, all Level-3 Magicians.
At the same time, these military police also saw the alluring girl standing alone not far away.
They immediately revealed lustful smiles and walked towards Ming Xu with hideous grins. However, they had only taken a few steps when Ming Xu's figure disappeared.
A black hand of the void descended from the sky and slapped the gendarmes into the snow.
The terrifying pressure blasted the surrounding snow away. The spiraling air currents surged in all directions in an arc. Then, with a bang, the entire ground caved in several layers.
The sound of bones cracking came from the bodies of the weakest gendarmes, and they were directly crushed into meat paste in shock.
One of the military police officers lasted the longest. He took a deep breath and staggered back to his feet. He was bathed in blood under the sunlight.
"We, we …" He was terrified.
It was hard to imagine that someone would attack the military police.
This was the army that monitored everything and had great authority. They were the elite of the elite.
Bang!
Ming Xu executed a beautiful side kick, his black leather shoes ruthlessly stomping on his face. His face instantly distorted beyond recognition, and after a short pause, his body shot out like a cannonball, ruthlessly smashing into the cave wall at the side. The moment he flew out, a few terrifying sounds of air breaking rang out, and an arc-shaped cyclone dispersed under Ming Xu's feet, dissipating like steam.
She maintained her side kick. The scenery under her short skirt flashed past. She pulled back her leg and walked toward the sunken snow.
The few military police officers who were lucky enough to survive were swept by Ming Xu's cold gaze. They were so scared that they fell to the ground, not daring to move.
The military police in the cave heard the commotion outside and came out to take a look.
Then, an angry roar burst out from the mouth of the military police captain. Before he could speak, a stream of blood gushed out of his abdomen and splashed on the snow-white rock wall.
The captain of a military police team was usually a Level 1 player. It was not easy for him to get this fat job, but he did not expect it to be a life-threatening mission.
The Guardian's Shield was activated immediately, but as soon as it was formed, it was torn apart by the monster-like Void Claw.
It was like a solid body. It had green-gray scales, sharp spikes, and was skinny.
At first glance, it looked like the claw of some Void Creature.
It pierced through his back, from his back to his abdomen, and then stretched out, stirring up all his internal organs.
"Hehe."
An ear-piercing and unpleasant laughter sounded behind him.
He did not dare to look back. The hot breath and stench had already entered his nose.
Why was there a Calamity here?
Behind the captain of the military police, in the shadows, a human-shaped Calamity slowly appeared. It looked like a lycan, but also like an upright wolfdog. Its body was hunched, and its entire body was covered in smooth green-gray scales. Its limbs were covered in sharp claws, and its flesh was exposed. Its entire body was skinny, and its indescribable face let out an ear-piercing scream.
It was extremely fast and powerful.
This was the final judgment of the military police captain.
It quietly appeared behind him, and then tore apart his abdomen with a claw.
Many of these players from the Seven Continents lived too comfortably and gradually forgot the horror of fighting Calamities. They were not vigilant enough, and it was common for Level 1 players to be instantly killed by Level F Calamities.
Rip!
Flesh and blood splattered.
The monster tore him into pieces and then began to feast. The scene was so bloody that the military police in the snow pit felt their hair stand on end. They did not even dare to breathe loudly.
Then, they heard another sentence that they would never forget for the rest of their lives.
"Mother … Mother …"
It called the girl.
Ming Xu walked past the Calamity and went straight to the big cave.
