"But what he wants is the group of scholars from the Chronometer Tower. Without them, the strength of our City of Heaven will be reduced by at least half." The Golden-armored War God gritted his teeth. Back then, in order to activate the rare disaster weapon, the City of Heaven, he had put in a lot of effort, teamed up with the ferocious little person and the Sky Swallowing Winged King, and consumed countless resources before they succeeded.
The three of them shared the resource consumption when the City of Heaven was activated. Now that the Sky Swallowing Winged King was dead, the Sky Swallowing Winged Clan was holed up in the City of Heaven. The resources they had were divided equally between the two of them. Considering that there was a terrifying Universe Beast race behind them, the Golden-armored War God did not attack the Sky Swallowing Winged Clan. He only made them move away from the core area of the City of Heaven.
Although he had reaped great benefits, the only ones left supporting the City of Heaven were the two of them. After the ferocious little person went into seclusion, all the pressure fell on him. If he had to give up the Scholars now, all his previous efforts would be wasted. He was unwilling to accept this!
"Then, including the City of Heaven, what do you think are our chances of winning against him if we join forces?" The ferocious little person showed a helpless expression and looked at the Golden-armored War God. "What if we use all our trump cards?"
The Golden-armored War God was silent.
If Li Xiang did not use the Polar night player form, he felt that with all his trump cards, there was at least a 70% chance of defeating him.
But now …
"Not even 10%. Don't hold it in. Recognize the truth. His strength is far from what we can compare to." The ferocious little person sighed. To be able to make a Level 9 completely bow his head and admit defeat, that kind of suppression was absolute and irresistible.
"Have you finished discussing? My patience is not good. " Li Xiang sneered. In fact, he had heard the conversation between the two of them word for word. Although the ferocious little person intended to admit defeat, he still did not have a good impression of the two players.
Occupying the City of Heaven, enslaving others, and seeking benefits for themselves.
With such selfish behavior, it was clear that they had not done anything of great benefit to mankind before. Perhaps they had even done something bad for the sake of profit.
"Li Xiang, we will return the group of scholars to you untouched. We will also hand over the Sky-devouring Winged Race to you." The ferocious little person flew into the air, looked up at Li Xiang who was in the Polar night player form, and said humbly, "I know you don't have a good impression of us, but I have a secret that I want to exchange with you. Let's write off all the accounts, okay?"
It was the first time in his life that he had to beg in such a humble manner, but he had no choice.
As soon as he came out of seclusion, he encountered such a killing god. He was convinced that if he angered Li Xiang, he would only end up like Golden Lion. Even if he tried his best, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to leave anything on Li Xiang.
Since that was the case, he might as well make things clear and seek the other party's understanding.
Li Xiang was also surprised by his attitude. Level-9s were often arrogant and insufferably arrogant. Even in the face of Bai Lili and Lancelot, they might not be willing to give in. The ferocious little person was willing to compromise in front of so many subordinates. He was a ruthless character.
Once such a person became an enemy, it would be very troublesome.
Li Xiang thought for a moment. He did not have the confidence to kill them completely with the City of Heaven's support. If they were to become enemies, there would be endless trouble. Moreover, the secret that could make the other party think that it could write off the grudges would be very valuable. He was quite interested.
"Okay, but there's no need for the Sky-devouring Winged Race. I don't need them alive. The new Polar night can't afford to feed so many freeloaders," Li Xiang said fiercely. There was a sudden exclamation in the City of Heaven.
He had a deep grudge with the Sky-devouring Winged Race. Everyone knew that after the death of the Twin Moons Overlord, his race's descendants were wiped out overnight. Everyone knew who did it, but they remained silent.
The Sky-devouring Winged Race had been hiding in the City of Heaven all this time. Li Xiang had not made a move for a long time. Now it seemed that he had not forgotten this blood feud.
The meaning of this sentence was very obvious. He wanted to kill all the Sky-devouring Winged Race. Moreover, he would not do it himself and would let them do it. This was one of the sincerity of reconciliation.
The sinister little person frowned. He and the Golden-armored War God had the same idea. It was not worthwhile to offend a huge race of cosmic beasts for a group of weak fellows. For this reason, he was willing to raise this group of fellows.
But now, Li Xiang was forcing them to make a decision.
Once they made a move, the wrath of the cosmic beasts would definitely descend on their heads. This was a sign of allegiance.
The sinister little person knew that it was the Sky-devouring Winged Race and the Twin Moons Overlord who had caused Ming Xu's soul to scatter. This hatred was very deep and could not be reconciled at all. Looking at Li Xiang's expression, it did not seem like he could change other conditions.
He thought over and over again and finally gritted his teeth and nodded. "Okay, leave none alive."
"Lunar, have you gone mad? Those are cosmic beasts. They wander around the universe with monstrous forces. When we leave the seven continents in the future, can you guarantee that we won't run into them? "The Golden-armored War God retorted agitatedly.
Although the Sky-devouring Winged Race was not the most powerful of the cosmic beasts, their strength was still not to be underestimated. When they left the seven continents, they were like duckweed on the sea. They had no foundation. How could they fight others?
"The problem of the cosmic beasts will only appear when we leave the seven continents. Now, they are blocking our door and asking for an explanation. Are you not going to give it to them?" The sinister little person named Lunar shook his head. Once he made a decision, he would not hesitate anymore. "If you are not willing, then why don't you fight with him?"
The Golden-armored War God was blocked by this sentence. His face was red and he could not speak.
Li Xiang sneered. "You don't seem to be willing …"
"I … I am willing." The Golden-armored War God looked at him. All kinds of emotions were overturning in his body. Finally, he nodded. "I will do this myself."
After saying this, he suddenly cast his gaze toward the City of Heaven.
The Sky-devouring Winged Race's birdmen had heard this and realized that something was wrong. They all planned to escape.
His aura locked onto those birdmen. The Flowing Gold Staff in his hand slammed down. The City of Heaven erupted with a terrifying vibration. The birdmen were splashed by the rain of light. One by one, they screamed and died. The scene was extremely bloody.
He was a man of his word. He was also a ruthless person.
Li Xiang narrowed his eyes. He could not help but look at them in a higher light.
This kind of Level-9 was a threat. Compared to them, the Golden Lion Ryan was slightly inferior. They were indeed old monsters who had lived for a long time.
The Golden-armored War God's slaughter was completed in an instant. As for whether there were any omissions, Li Xiang did not care at all.
Killing these birdmen was also to make an example of others, to let others know his temper. If they touched his bottom line, no matter who it was, they would not have an easy time.
As for whether they were really exterminated, since the Golden-armored War God had made his move, if there were any survivors, it would be his headache. He would also have to bear the anger of the Cosmic Beast. It had nothing to do with him.
The air was filled with a thin layer of blood mist. The City of Heaven was completely silent. They finally realized that they were only insignificant chess pieces in the hands of the big shots. If they wanted to kill them, they would be killed without mercy.
Lunar Shadow was not idle either. He entered the City of Heaven and quickly came out with a group of scholars in ragged clothes.
"The list of personnel and information has been sent to the New Polar Night Alliance. You can confirm it at any time," Lunar Shadow said to him, his eyes sincere. "I will send this group of people to the New Polar Night Alliance?"
"Okay." Li Xiang nodded slightly. The scholars were still dumbfounded. Everyone was sallow and emaciated. It seemed that they had been exploited badly.
He saw a familiar face in the crowd. It was Felix Caesar III, the man who had been the recruitment executive of the Chronometer Tower Consortium during the Ultimate Trial. He and Night Shadow were from the same generation as the Meteor Gemini.
Li Xiang walked toward him.
Seeing Li Xiang suddenly walking toward the City of Heaven, Lunar Shadow and the Golden-armored War God were very nervous. After seeing him deactivate the Polar Night Alliance's player form, they were relieved and made a path for him to pass.
"Is there someone you know?" Lunar Shadow glanced at the group of scholars behind him and noticed something.
Li Xiang nodded slightly and went straight to Felix.
Felix's silver-white hair was a little messy, and his eyes were unfocused. He only reacted when Li Xiang came closer.
There were very few magic particles on his body. This was a sign that he was severely exhausted.
Li Xiang reached out and pulled out the Heaven of Annihilation. He aimed at the group of scholars. The blue light fell, and there was a comfortable sound.
The Light of Healing healed their physical and mental wounds. The scholars gradually regained their color, and their eyes became bright again.
Lunar Shadow was stunned. He admired Li Xiang even more.
According to the information, he used to be an Assassin and a Magician of the Occult. There was no record of him learning any forbidden healing spells. Moreover, none of the healing spells he knew had this kind of power.
This gun … Lunar Shadow locked his gaze on the Heaven of Annihilation. There were also some records about it. It was said that it came from the River of Assassinations and had four different forms. Li Xiang relied on its power to kill enemies above his level in the early days. Now, its power had probably increased by several levels.
It was definitely not weaker than the City of Heaven.
It was the best disaster weapon.
Felix's eyes became clear. He saw Li Xiang's face clearly. He smiled bitterly, not knowing what to say.
Many years ago, this young man was still a magic apprentice who did not dare to raise his head in front of him. At that time, he was already a Level-7 player. Many years later, he was the one who did not dare to raise his head!
He admired Night Shadow's sharp eyes.
"Are there any other questions?" Li Xiang asked concisely. Felios immediately understood what he meant and shook his head to indicate that there were no other questions.
"That's good. I'll get someone to send you to the new Polar night alliance. After that, I won't stop you from working in the new Polar night alliance or finding your own home. Any scholar of the Chronometer Tower, as long as their identity is clear, can come to me if they have any difficulties." Li Xiang looked at them and smiled.
The scholars suddenly raised their heads and looked at him in disbelief.
They knew that this young man was already the top player in the Seven Continents. He was known as a Polar night player and was above Level-9. It was already unbelievable that he was willing to save them, but now he was willing to help them unconditionally!
"I admire you scholars who dedicate your lives to knowledge and research. With your existence, human civilization can continue to develop and continue. This is something that no amount of players can achieve. Therefore, I feel that the world cannot do without you. Since I have the ability, I will not shirk this responsibility."
Li Xiang spoke casually, but there was no sense of shirking responsibility in his words. He was truly carrying out his motto as a Polar night player.
Polar night was coming, and dawn was just around the corner.
This dawn belonged to all of humanity.
Felix and the others were slightly moved. Just these words alone made them decide what to do in the future.
Lunar asked someone to send the scholars to the new Polar night alliance on a Void Battleship. She then made an inviting gesture and invited Li Xiang to the City of Heaven for a detailed discussion.
That secret was Li Xiang's biggest bargaining chip to reconcile with them.
The layout of the City of Heaven was similar to the Five Thrones. Each area was separated, and everyone had their own work. It seemed peaceful, but in reality, each of them had a lot of work to do.
Lunar did not take him to each area for too long. Instead, she brought him to the edge of the city.
"You didn't have much doubt when Golden Armor mentioned the Final Catastrophe. It seems like you know this secret too," Lunar said in a low voice with a serious expression.
Li Xiang nodded slightly. "If you're referring to the return of the protagonists of each era …"
He did not mind mentioning this and even planned to discuss it with the Five Kings. This was a major event that involved the survival of humanity. It should not be hidden. If Bai Lili really had such plans, she probably would not have deliberately hidden it.
Lunar Shadow revealed a surprised expression. She looked at the Golden Armored War God and said to him, "So you know so much."
"The secret you want to talk about isn't this, is it?" Li Xiang frowned and revealed a sly expression. If it was this, then he could only apologize and ask the two of them to make up for it.
Lunar laughed and shook her head. "No, since I think it can be used as a bargaining chip to reconcile with you, this kind of shallow content is far from enough."
"Then it's on a deeper level." Li Xiang was instantly interested. He asked Honey to investigate because he wanted to know more. This was indeed what he was most interested in at the moment.
"Follow me, and you'll understand."
Lunar did not say much. She brought him to a corner of the City of Heaven.
This place was very desolate. As far as the eye could see, there were broken rocks and overgrown weeds. There was no one in sight.
There was no human life here. Even the fluctuations of magic particles were very few. It was very strange.
In normal places, even if there were differences in the fluctuations of magic particles, there would not be an obvious sense of discontinuity. But here, it was so thin that it was difficult to breathe.
"This is not because of the City of Heaven. What we absorb are the magic particles in the periphery. The inside is actually very abundant. Otherwise, these coolies would not be able to get any benefits from their work. After a long time, they would not be willing to work hard." Lunar was obviously very familiar with the "996" method. While squeezing the people under her, she did not forget to give them enough benefits.
But this place was very strange. The fluctuations of magic particles were pitifully small, and the concentration was almost zero.
This feeling was somewhat similar to clone Ming Xu's invulnerability.
To be able to prevent the circulation of magic particles, it meant that some of the things accumulated here did not come from the seven continents themselves.
This was also the reason why clone Ming Xu did not like the seven continents. She was more used to the feeling of the intersection of all kinds of energy in the Land of Eternity. A single energy source always felt very thin.
The three of them landed on a piece of land. There were only ashes on the ground. It was pitch-black as if it had just been burned.
