Chapter 184
After regaining consciousness, Yitu suddenly opened his eyes, and what he saw was the gloom and darkness unique to a rat's nest.
The rapid breathing sound was particularly clear in the narrow and silent space.
Yitu quickly calmed down and reviewed the information he had just learned in his mind.
Although the eavesdropping was discovered by Jack of Hearts, it was not in vain.
It was a pity for the little mouse that had been running for a long time. It was recognized by the King of Hearts and thrown directly into the toilet.
Of course, this matter will not end so easily, but even if the two want to pursue it, they will have to wait until the next meeting.
Yitu turned over, his movements were very gentle, but some people still noticed it.
Probably because the environment was too bad, Xu Heng couldn't sleep at all. He knocked lightly on the wooden wall with his knuckles and shouted in a low voice:
"Yitu? We have news, right?"
Yitu had no choice but to turn over again, facing the wooden wall on his side, and whispered back:
"I found Leslie Burke's sword, but the tricky part is, it's in the hands of the Jack of Hearts."
Xu Heng was stunned. "Jack of Hearts? You said the sword is in Xiao Feng's hand?"
Unlike the other three suits, in the Huaxia region, this generation headed by Jiang Hanyu has only had one Jack of Hearts so far, namely Xiao Feng, the only knight of the King of Hearts Minghuang.
"Well, Leslie Burke is dead, so the sword fell into Xiao Feng's hands."
Yitu thought about it and said:
"The Emperor should know it's me, and the Knights of Light will have their own mission tomorrow."
After hearing this, Xu Heng couldn't help but frown:
"I knew this quest wouldn't be as simple as just killing an NPC."
If they just kill an NPC, at most it will be more difficult for them to find it.
But if this sword falls into the hands of a player, even a very powerful player, a head-on fight would probably be unavoidable.
"Yitu, we only have 24 hours," Xu Heng reminded him, "We can't delay this."
Even if the sword is in the hands of the Jack of Hearts, they must act tomorrow and there is no way to make long-term plans.
Yitu was of course aware of this, "I know, let's talk about it tomorrow, Xu Heng, it's too late today."
"Okay, good night."
"good evening."
The next morning, just after dawn, Xu Heng heard the sound of people talking in the corridor outside.
"The Knights of Light will depart from the Temple at 8:30. There will be four teams in total, including some members of the Black Crow and Late Sparrow teams."
Yitu's voice was low, but his speech speed was not slow:
"The purpose of their actions is most likely related to the werewolf attack on Wayne City in the east. Two teams are still left in the city to protect the safety of civilians."
"But the team led by Xiao Feng is going to leave the city."
"Leave the city? Didn't they say that the Jack of Hearts couldn't be too far away from the Emperor?" Another voice belonged to Chu Xiyin, who asked:
"Could it be that the King of Hearts is also going to participate?"
Yitu had no time to explain, so he could only say briefly:
"Xiao Feng really can't leave Ming Huang too far, but they have a way to separate them in a short period of time."
"If we want to get the sword, we have to make some big noise before they leave Senna."
Xu Heng asked, "How big is considered big?"
Yitu turned to look at him and caught a glimpse of the excitement in his eyes.
"Then everyone should get at least five points."
At this time, Shen Yueshu and Huasan came back from outside with kerosene lamps, and Shen Yueshu smiled.
"The two teams from Silver Cat have already gone up to search for information." Huasan looked at Yitu and said:
"If nothing unexpected happens, they will run into the first group of guards patrolling the city before seven o'clock, attracting the attention of the Knights of Light."
"Except for Fei Ye, the remaining three teams have not yet taken action. It seems that they are planning to give up the mission of the Witch Scout."
Yitu nodded, but was not very satisfied with the result.
"Find a way to get them moving. There aren't many players in the witch camp, so we can't afford to be lazy."
The three of them looked at him, waiting for the captain's next words.
Yitu's eyes fell on Xu Heng, and he suddenly smiled:
"I guess we need to get the word out there so things can get interesting."
In order to find Feiye's members, Xu Heng wandered around in the underground passage for a long time before he was discovered by Shen Shi's people.
"You are...Han Palace's person, the traitor Xu Heng?"
Chen Shi's eyes roamed over Xu Heng's body. "The Queen of Hearts asked you to come to me... Is there something wrong?"
Xu Heng did not hide it and smiled:
"Don't be nervous, our captain asked me to come here just to pass on a message."
"Pass the message?" Shen Shi couldn't help but frown.
Xu Heng nodded and said straight to the point:
"Leslie Burke is dead, and his sword was among the four Knights of Light that left the city at 8:30 this morning."
"If you want to get the sword within 24 hours, this morning, when the Knights are on a mission, is your only chance."
After Xu Heng finished speaking, he turned and left, not even paying attention to the different expressions of the people in Fei Ye.
"Captain, this kid's words are totally unbelievable!" One of the Feiye members said hurriedly:
"If the news was true, how could they tell us?"
"Idiot." The tall and thin man standing on Shen Shi's right hand had a flash of disdain in his eyes:
"They can't possibly fabricate any false information in front of us. Why don't you use your brain before you speak?"
The member's face changed, and he finally realized what the deputy captain meant.
Among the skill cards that Shen Shi possesses, there is an Acolyte card that is used to distinguish true from false.
Whether it is a lie or any disguise that cannot be seen by the naked eye, its true form will be revealed in front of Shen Shi.
And if it is a lie, Shen Shi will see white smoke spreading over the face of the liar.
Obviously, Xu Heng was not lying. They clearly knew that he possessed this ability, so they dared to come and set a trap without any scruples.
What’s even more frustrating is that they have no choice but to fall into this trap.
Because other than that, they had no information about the whereabouts of Leslie Burke Sabre.
After Xu Heng visited Fei Ye, he quickly passed the news to the other five teams.
Of course, his words changed slightly, and he specifically mentioned that he had already informed Captain Fei Ye of this.
In this way, no one from the remaining five teams would question the authenticity of the news.
Because everyone knows that Feiye’s captain can distinguish the truth from the false. If Feiye can know, then the news cannot be false.
This is also one of the reasons why Yitu asked Xu Heng to be the first to tell Fei Ye.
The remaining three teams did not make any moves because they did not want to waste time and energy, or even accidentally sacrifice members, just to search for information about Sabre.
But once Xu Heng passed on the message, the nature of the situation changed.
They came out of the confused situation of not knowing where to start, and were bound to focus on the four teams of light knights who were about to start the mission.
As long as someone takes the lead, they will inevitably follow suit.
Just when several waves of people had already laid in wait for the opportunity, what no one expected was that Han Dian did not go looking for trouble with the Knights of Light, but instead massacred the civilians of Senna City.
The members of the Sea Shark Team all felt that they were lucky because they were assigned to the civilian camp.
Just after eight o'clock, they had already received the league points issued by the system to civilian players.
Chen Xiang excitedly opened the league standings and counted down row by row, and found that the Sea Sharks were ranked 17th.
"Holy crap! This is so cool!" Chen Xiang patted his teammate Wu Tao on the shoulder. "Look at the rankings! Even though each of us only has three points, we're ranked 17th! The Devil Fang Frost Palace is all behind us!"
Chen Xiang grinned, and although he knew it was only temporary, he still felt proud.
Wu Tao was much calmer than the younger Chen Xiang. He did not comment too much, but said:
"Because we are civilians, the largest group and the least able to protect ourselves. You really don't think there will be any good thing like points falling from the sky, do you?"
Chen Xiang smiled and said disapprovingly:
"As long as we don't act rashly and protect ourselves, we'll be fine. Besides, we still have the Knight of Light—"
He didn't finish his words as his voice got stuck in his throat. He subconsciously raised his hand to cover his neck, but found that his head was gone at some point.
"Chen Xiang!"
Wu Tao watched this scene with bloodshot eyes. A layer of protective light shield instantly rose from his body. Just as he was about to turn around and throw out his weapon, he was pierced through the chest by the oncoming blade the next second.
Wu Tao looked at the young man standing on the windowsill in disbelief. The murderer had a face that smiled very gently.
"I'm sorry, brother."
The blade returned to Shen Yueshu's hand. He lowered his eyes slightly and someone called his name downstairs.
Shen Yueshu tapped her toes lightly, rolled over and landed on the ground with quick and decisive movements.
On the street, Ou Cheng and Chu Xiyin were dealing with a team that had quickly gathered together.
The captain of that team fought extremely ferociously and was not afraid of Ou Cheng's Death Scythe at all, which cut countless bleeding wounds on his body.
Shen Yueshu rushed over without thinking, and the moment he raised his hand, he took off all the knives and swords.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chu Xiyin killed the three members hiding behind the captain. Light and shadow danced on his body, and his golden eyes flashed with a terrifying light.
"Why!"
The man let out an extremely angry roar and rushed towards Shen Yueshu and the others like a madman.
However, he didn't get very close as he was instantly burned to ashes by the oncoming blue flames.
Shen Yueshu subconsciously looked up and saw Hantian flapping its huge and broad wings and flying in the air. Its loud cry quickly attracted the attention of countless people.
The man standing on the back of the blue dragon nodded at them, then touched Hantian's back.
The giant dragon seemed to be able to sense what its master was thinking and swooped down suddenly.
As they approached, a green wind suddenly rose from under the feet of the three people. In just a blink of an eye, they were sitting on Hantian's back, and all they could hear was the sound of the wind whistling in their ears.
"The commotion is already big enough. If the Knights don't come, Hantian will have to burn the city down." Yitu smiled easily.
Shen Yueshu also laughed, "That won't work. I still want to move from underground to above ground."
"I can't just follow Captain Jiang and live in a cabin."
As soon as he finished speaking, the four of them laughed out loud.
The werewolf camp where Jiang Hanyu is located actually lives in the forest. Not only are there a lot of mosquitoes, but they also eat giant rats that they caught from somewhere.
At this moment, a white paper crane flew to Yitu's ear, said something, and soon flew away.
Yitu looked at them and said:
"News just came from Xiao Jing that Fei Ye's people have taken action."
"If they don't take action now, it will really waste the opportunity we worked so hard to create."
Chu Xiyin looked at the chaotic Senna City below. Many civilian players were attacking and fighting each other in the streets because they could not distinguish each other's identities and camps.
Some of them did it intentionally to settle personal grudges, while others were simply led into the rhythm by them.
Unlike the various appearances of civilians, witch players are surprisingly recognizable in appearance.
That is, all the witches have light green eyes and slightly pointed ears, but they are not as deformed as the elves.
Moreover, most witches have fair and delicate skin, beautiful facial features, and are feminine.
Taking all the above into consideration, it is almost impossible for a witch to avoid being recognized by civilians.
But this time the incident happened suddenly, and most players were killed and eliminated on the spot before they even had time to see their appearance clearly.
Other players who are unaware of the truth will soon discover through the rising league standings that the ones doing the bad things are none other than their Handian team.
But now, it’s not just them in Handian who are enjoying it.
It was impossible for Fei Ye's people not to take advantage of the chaos and take action. Even the other teams of the witch clan could not hold back and specifically targeted lone civilian players.
The attack was large enough and sudden enough to disrupt the original plans and missions of the Knights of Light.
Hua Shan, Song Jingchen and Xu Heng had already been guarding the road that Xiao Feng's team had to take to leave the city, just as Yi Tu had arranged.
Yitu asked Hantian to fly to an open and deserted place to hide his tracks.
After all, flying on a dragon is too eye-catching.
After the four people came down, the white paper crane appeared again and landed next to Yi Tu's ear. After delivering the words, it immediately flew back.
"Lieqi and the others started to come out to mop up the mess. The Silver Cat team was killed on the spot, with only one person left."
Yi Tu looked very calm when he said this. He licked the corner of his lips and said:
"Unfortunately, I can't do it this time."
Their target this time was the sword in Xiao Feng's hand. They made such a big fuss just to drag other teams into the water and create confusion.
After achieving their goal, they cannot stay here and confront Lieqi and the Night King head-on.
Otherwise, all the contributions made by Fei Ye and the others, as well as the time they bought for them, would be in vain.
Song Jingchen reported that Xiao Feng and Black Crow's two teams were still planning to leave the city, while the other two had already turned back to deal with the situation.
Before long, Red Heart King and other members of the Chi Que team will come out to intervene.
Yitu didn't want that person to guess his thoughts, so Siyuxiren quickly chose a quick route and arrived at his destination before Xiao Feng left the city.
The man was riding on a tall horse, wearing platinum armor and holding a sword. His handsome face almost resembled the knight on a playing card.
"Ming Jue said you would come, I thought you would be a little later than I expected." Xiao Fengchong Yi Tu raised the corner of his lips, "Don't judge a person by appearance, Queen of Hearts."
Yitu knew that the King of Hearts would be aware of his purpose, and there was nothing strange about it.
After all, the fact that Leslie Burke's sword ended up in Xiao Feng's hands was most likely a fixed task for him.
"Is that so." Yi Tu looked at the five people behind Xiao Feng with a subtle look, and said lightly:
"I know you've already guessed it, so before coming here, I also guessed whether the King of Hearts would come."
"Why, he actually trusts you so much that he intends to let you bear everything alone?"
Xiao Feng smiled, raised his finger and pointed at his head, and said softly:
"Dear Queen of Hearts, use your brain."
With the same smile, the same tone and voice as the King of Hearts, Yitu's face instantly fell.
What a fun-loving couple, this cute little couple.
"I'm moving, dear King." Yitu raised his hand.
The moment the words fell, all the members of Han Palace set off. Shen Yueshu and Chu Xiyin cooperated and killed the two on the right cleanly and neatly.
Huasan and Oucheng killed the two on the left with almost no suspense.
Now, only the Heart Jack Xiao Feng and the Black Crow member behind Xiao Feng are left.
Yi Tu took a look and was surprised to find that this person was Bing Shuang, whom he had met in the corridor that night.
Seeing that Shen Yueshu's blade was about to rush in front of Xiao Feng, Xiao Feng finally tilted his head.
In just a moment, the blade slowly solidified in the air, as if a ball of glue had stuck to its trajectory, and it stopped in mid-air.
Then the blade began to rust and even corroded the entire blade.
Shen Yueshu let out a painful groan. You have to know that all the blades are part of his body. Once the knife is damaged, his body is damaged.
Immediately afterwards, Ou Cheng and Xu Heng were only about three meters away from Xiao Feng when their bodies began to change uncontrollably.
It’s not so much that we are getting old, but rather that our lives are withering away.
Xiao Feng's divine card - Lost Spring Flower, can make everything within its range age, wither, fade and die.
Lost Spring will weaken any power of the player to the greatest extent, even including mental degradation.
Although the area centered on Xiao Feng was full of flowers and fruits on the ground, it even gave birth to life, butterflies and birds.
But these are all illusions created by the passing of spring; death is its ultimate reality.
The player's only chance to escape from the Lost Spring is to leave immediately the moment he notices it.
But it was obvious that it was too late for both Ou Cheng and Xu Heng. Their lives were fading and their hair was fading rapidly.
At this time, Fu Heng opened his red paper umbrella that had just been stained with blood, and walked towards Xiao Feng with a calm expression.
Xiao Feng stared at the approaching flower umbrella and did not notice that Yi Tu's eyes suddenly lit up with a strange red light.
It was like a sudden pain as if his heart was electrocuted, or like his consciousness collapsed for a moment. When Xiao Feng reacted, the circle of Shi Shi Chunhua's domain had disappeared.
Ou Cheng and Xu Heng, who were freed, immediately retreated to a safe area.
At this time, the flower umbrella had approached to a safe distance.
Xiao Bao's face changed. In fact, there were few people in the game who dared to let the Spade Queen's Flower Umbrella get close to them.
Huasan's strength isn't just the terrifying bone umbrella, but also his amazing close combat ability.
Without thinking, Xiao Feng drew his sword to block Huasan's attack, then immediately jumped off his horse. Just when everyone thought he was going to fight Huasan with his sword, Xiao Feng gave Yitu an inexplicable smile.
"You want this sword?"
In an instant, Yitu understood the idea that King of Hearts had given Xiao Feng.
"Hua San, stop him! He's going to destroy the sword!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Feng used the Lost Spring Flower.
In the sunlight, Leslie Burke's sword withered and rusted, turning into a pile of rust.
