Xiao Hanling's eyes were as sharp as torches, and he looked at the forbidden species in the desert, waiting for its response. But at this time, the forbidden species turned and looked into the distance. Xiao Hanling thought it was trying to divert his attention, but soon, he felt something approaching.
Xiao Hanling raised his head suddenly and looked at the horizon of the desert, where the sun was shining brightly like a huge fireball. In that fireball, Xiao Hanling caught a tiny black dot.
This made him feel shocked and a bad feeling surged in his heart.
The inconspicuous black dot quickly grew larger, and not long after, Xiao Hanling saw a strange thing. At a glance, he thought he saw a jellyfish. After all, that thing had an umbrella-like membrane, and like a real jellyfish, the membrane was undulating and wriggling, floating in the air with some unknown force, and flying towards Xiao Hanling.
When it flew closer, Xiao Hanling could see clearly that it was in the shape of an umbrella, with darkness emanating from the layers of wriggling membranes. The black color spread like ink and diffused in the air. Looking at the darkness, Xiao Hanling had a feeling that the space dyed by the black color was inexplicably alienated, as if it was detached from reality, carrying an unspeakable illusion.
And under the umbrella-shaped membrane, Xiao Hanling could vaguely see the figure of a woman. The woman was hugging herself with her legs curled up, as if she was sleeping.
Just below the membrane, there are tentacles of flesh and blood dragging, some entangled and some floating, being dragged through the air by the 'jellyfish' above.
"What is that?" Xiao Hanling felt a chill on his back. In this hot desert, on the hottest afternoon of the day, seeing the strange thing floating in the air, Xiao Hanling felt as if he was drenched in ice water.
That thing could attract the attention of the forbidden species on the ground, which shows that this "jellyfish" is not simple at all. Why did it come to the desert
Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed through Xiao Hanling's mind!
Fragments... Could it be that this 'jellyfish' is also a fragment of the 'Immortal Evil Snake'
When thinking of this, Xiao Hanling naturally looked down, but where was the forbidden species in the desert at this time
Just when Xiao Hanling was distracted, the forbidden species had already left silently, which made Xiao Hanling gasp again. You know, he is the Heart of Elements, and he is of the Heavenly Rank.
People of this class are naturally sensitive to the movement of energy. Even though he had divided part of his attention elsewhere, Xiao Hanling was still surprised that the forbidden species could leave without alerting him.
When Xiao Hanling raised his head again to catch the "jellyfish" in the air, he found that the thing was diving into the "darkness" created by itself. Then its figure, along with the "darkness" in the air, dissipated like bubbles and disappeared completely.
Xiao Hanling's mouth was full of bitterness. Right in front of his eyes, the two foreign objects slipped away. Suddenly, he didn't know how to explain to Huo Hanshan.
The communicator rang at this moment.
Xiao Hanling calmed down, picked it up, and saw a communication request. After passing it, he connected to the communication and heard the adjutant's voice: "Master Xiao, we have searched the nest, the nest of the evil spirits... The nest has become empty, there is not a single evil spirit left in it!"
empty
The evil god's lair has been cleared
Xiao Hanling's breathing sank slightly, remembering that the forbidden species had displayed the abilities of other gods and evils, and also remembering what it said about the "fragments" returning to their origins. Xiao Hanling was shocked.
I roughly know where the disappeared gods and evil spirits have gone.
"I understand. You guys continue to be on guard. I have to go back to the fortress."
Xiao Hanling put down the communicator, turned around and flew towards the War God Castle.
... ...
In the dark space, a beam of light fell and shone on a burly figure.
He was a man in a black robe. The black robe looked heavy, without any decoration, very simple. However, the man was wearing a mask with intricate patterns, full of mystery and weirdness. There were many lines and patterns on the mask, which collectively depicted the pattern of an eye.
Soon, another beam of light fell, revealing a young man of medium build, black hair, brown eyes, and a pair of glasses on his nose. This young man had a few freckles on his face, and he exuded a bookish air, like an ordinary student studying in an academy.
He was dressed simply and normally, just like an ordinary person you could see anywhere.
The young man glanced at the masked man calmly, and then said: "Midnight... Is this you, or one of your machine clones? Uh, should I call you Shadowless? Or should I call you Agrif?"
The man in the heavy black robe took off his mask, revealing a face from the Western Continent, with a high nose bridge, blue eyes, and a clear scar on his tightly pursed lips. He said, "Today is the first plenary meeting of our twelve branches in ten years. You should call me 'Midnight', just like I will call you 'Hyperion'."
The young man called Hyperion nodded slightly and said nothing more.
Immediately afterwards, two beams of light were cast at almost the same time. There was a man and a woman in the beams of light. The man had messy hair, as if it had never been taken care of. He was of medium build and not very strong. Even his eyes were always half-closed, and he seemed extremely listless, as if he had not had a good sleep for a long time. He was yawning.
The woman on the other side looked to be in her early twenties, with a thin face and looking a little malnourished, but her black hair was soft and shiny, and her skin was in pretty good condition. Her brown eyes glanced around calmly, then she picked up a pocket watch and opened it, seeming to be very concerned about the time.
"Welcome, Ziang, Maowei." The man who called himself 'Midnight' greeted them with a smile as the convener of the meeting.
"Well, everyone isn't here yet? If I had known, I would have come online a little later. I still have some code to edit..." The man called 'Ziang' looked listless and yawned several times while speaking.
As soon as he finished speaking, another beam of light fell, illuminating a middle-aged man in his fifties. This man was tall and thin, with thick hair that was still combed meticulously and sharp eyes. When he looked around, every participant looked at him at the same time.
"Welcome, Chen Hu."
Beams of light continued to fall, illuminating the figures within them. Among them were tall women with smooth blonde hair and noble temperament; there were also men in their prime, with an air of toughness; there were old men with white hair, and there were also teenagers who looked only twelve or thirteen years old.
Midnight looked at these people one by one, took a deep breath, and said calmly: "Since all the twelve teams are here, let's get started."
"I believe everyone knows what major events have happened recently. I will not go into details. What I want to say is that through the efforts of our generations, the world order that has been formed since the establishment of the 'Golden Court' has gradually come to an end."
"Next, the world pattern will change again, the world will be reshuffled, and the empire we, Wuying, will build will be built on the upcoming chaos."
"I know that after the chaos, the world will be devastated, but our empire will eventually be built on these ruins!"
"Moreover, the empire we are going to build will surpass all the previous ones, and the world will usher in a golden age because of us!"
"We must tell the 'Golden Council' that their naive ideals are not desirable. Only by restoring the old dynasty can we unite all of humanity to fight against the evil gods and alien gods!"
"In order to do this, we once guided the builder of Hell Castle. We had him expelled from the Senate. We planted the seeds of hatred with our own hands."
"And there are many seeds like this on the three continents."
"Now, the seeds have taken root and sprouted. They will soon grow into towering trees, and at the same time, they will cause the peaceful earth to collapse, and the 'Golden Court' will eventually become history!"
After speaking these words passionately, Midnight stopped and looked around at everyone.
Mao Wei, the impatient girl who kept opening her pocket watch, raised her hand and said, "If I remember correctly, the big tree of Hell Castle has fallen down. It seems that it has not become a cover to distract the attention of the Golden Council as you expected."
Midnight put on the mask again and looked at the girl with the abstract "eyes" on the mask: "The situation in Hell Castle was an accident. I really didn't expect that Luo Wu would be parasitized by the ancient will and become an alien god, causing our chess piece to leave the chessboard earlier than expected."
"However, the fall of Hell Castle may not be a bad thing. At least, it covered our traces. In addition, the passage of the Black People and the alien god Luo Wu have attracted the attention of the court."
"Besides, Peter was injured, and the injury was serious. At least in the short term, his threat has dropped to a level we can accept."
The sharp-eyed old man, Chen Hu, sighed, "Peter Desmonk is known as the 'strongest fist' in the 'Golden Court'. Together with the 'strongest sword' Lin Jianping and the 'strongest shield' Tu Ge, they are known as the Big Three."
"Even if the 'strongest fist' is not here for the time being, the strongest sword and shield are still there. I think you should not take it too lightly."
"I also want to say..."
Hyperion, who wore glasses and had a strong scholarly air, said softly, "In addition to the Big Three, we'd better not forget the founders of the Golden Court, the K family, who possessed astonishing wealth."
"Their tribe was the first in the world to explore the Reverse World. Their tribe was named after the culture they discovered in the Reverse World."
"K can also be extended to mean King. In a certain world, it means 'king', so the heirs of this clan will insert the clan name 'K' into their names."
"I can tell you for sure that this group has not disappeared. They are one of the founders of the Golden Court and the most important investor. They still exist today and may become our biggest obstacle."
"Because, according to my investigation, there might be a Level 10 Conqueror among them!"
