Chapter 614: Evildoer
Officers were stationed on each of the four spiral staircases leading to the second floor.
Fully armed.
In addition, Xia Feng discovered that his deconstruction eye could not penetrate the wall of the second floor, and he could only see a mosaic-like gray paste.
There seems to be a very strong barrier on the second floor that can block all prying eyes and spatial means.
Xia Feng withdrew his gaze, took a glass of red wine from the waiter's tray, and walked deeper into the hall.
"I heard that Her Highness Freya was abducted by an evil person named Xia Feng the day before yesterday. Is that true?"
The banquet was filled with gossip. Both the gentlemen chatting and laughing and the small circle of ladies were very curious about what had happened the day before.
"This is indeed true, but Mr. Dongjun didn't give that foolish villain a chance to run rampant. He directly dispatched a warship to rescue Her Highness Leia. Hey~ I heard that Her Highness Leia's attitude towards Mr. Dongjun has finally improved because of this incident."
"Oh? It seems the hero-saving-the-beauty plot is still effective. Even His Highness falls for it."
"You don't know, but I heard that the evil disciple was once Her Highness Rhea's student at Area 51. He's been secretly obsessed with Her Highness and even once stole Her discarded stockings. He's incredibly perverted! This time, with the help of the evil god, he's even more lustful and committed such a god-awful act!"
"." Xia Feng paused, his eyes twitched slightly, and he continued walking forward.
"Sure enough, people from that rural area of Area 51 are just disgusting."
"Wait! If that's the case, then Her Highness Leia hasn't been defiled by this evildoer."
"Nonsense! Of course not. But I heard that Xia Feng, the evil disciple, was still raving to Her Highness Leia before he died. Her Highness Leia has been staying indoors for the past few days and must be very disgusted."
".!" Xia Feng paused again. No, these nobles and important figures are so idle that they gossip and spread rumors all day long?!
"I seem to remember the name Xia Feng. Wasn't he said a few months ago that he was the Eternal Day Saint?"
"That's not clear, but it's not surprising that every year there are people claiming to be the Son of Eternal Day and deceiving others."
"Too."
The conversation was fragmented, and Xia Feng didn't continue listening. He walked through the groups of people and sat down on a secluded sofa.
He put the red wine glass in front of his nose and sniffed it, then frowned and put it down. Sure enough, he was still not used to drinking this stuff.
While shaking the wine glass, Xia Feng continued to look around with the Eye of Deconstruction, observing the identities of the people attending the banquet.
The most eye-catching one was the man in silver armor who was sitting carefree on the elegant sofa in the center of the hall.
The man had a holy white VII-type mark carved between his eyebrows, and a silver helmet under his nose, but the mouth of the helmet was covered with terrifying shark teeth that stretched from ear to ear.
Judging from his armor and the mark between his eyebrows, he is obviously the Knight of Apocalypse.
Miss Mu had collected the appearance information of several Apocalypse Knights. Xia Feng had seen it and recognized this person.
——Apocalypse·Killing Seven.
Shi Qi seemed to be very hungry. He bit the apple in his hand quickly with his shark teeth wide open. His scarlet eyes flashed with blood. In the end, he even bit the apple core into pieces and swallowed it down into his stomach with a gulp.
One apple every three seconds, and soon most of the two-meter-high mountain of apples in front of him were gone.
Gentlemen, ladies, and officers in the hall all stayed away from this place, and were even too afraid to look in the direction of the murderer.
Within a radius of ten meters around Shi Qi, a quiet and uninhabited area was created.
In order to avoid attracting attention, Xia Feng didn't look at this person for long and quickly looked away.
But he saw someone who surprised him.
Oedipus.
The Pope's son disguised himself as a young master of a powerful family, wearing a tuxedo and chatting with several noble ladies with a gentle smile.
The ladies were elegantly dressed and quite good-looking. Their crow's feet at the corners of their eyes faded a little after being amused by Oedipus's witty remarks, and they looked radiant.
As if he sensed the prying eyes, Dipus turned his head to look at Xia Feng, but he just glanced at him and turned back without paying much attention.
Xia Feng's disguise is the Qingtong mask, which is much more advanced than that of the Pope's son, so he is not afraid of being seen through.
What puzzled Xia Feng was why the Pope's son came here? And why did he come here in disguise?
The Black Moon Headquarters is also located in District 15, so Ye Lidongjun should send an invitation to the Black Moon Headquarters for his birthday party.
Logically speaking, if the Pope's son wanted to come, he could come in openly.
Look at the current situation
Xia Feng seemed to be lost in thought. He suddenly remembered the time when he copied the Absolute Double Pupil Spiritual Weapon from Ye Likong on the way to District 15.
Ye Likong's purpose at that time was not only to enslave him, but also to make him, a descendant of the Dragon God, a slave of Ye Lidongjun.
Ye Likong also wanted to kill the two Black Moon Saints to prevent them from returning to the Black Moon Headquarters.
At that time, Xia Feng guessed that someone in the Black Moon Court wanted to harm the two saints, and it was inconvenient to take action, so he entrusted Ye Lidongjun to send his men to take action.
But now it seems that Ye Lidongjun and the Black Moon Headquarters are most likely not in a cooperative relationship, but a hostile one!
So, why are these two forces hostile to each other?
While thinking, Xia Feng remembered that during the Lantern Festival last night, Dipus appeared at the Sky Lantern Pavilion and tried to snatch the Xumi King Order.
Thinking of this, he roughly understood that it was the Xumi Throne that caused Ye Lidongjun and the Black Moon Headquarters to become enemies.
There should be a powerful person in the Black Moon Court who has also obtained the qualification to compete for the Xumi Throne.
Xia Feng looked at the young man with a gentle smile in the distance again. Oedipus was most likely one of the nine seats.
Then, the civil strife within the Black Moon Headquarters and the assassination of the Black Moon Saint by Ye Lidongjun might all be related to the fight for the Sumeru Throne.
After sorting out his thoughts, Xia Feng nodded thoughtfully. Thinking about it this way, he had actually been connected to the Sumeru Throne from the moment he was adopted by Wei Shutong.
After copying it into a spiritual weapon with the "mark of life" and entering the wheel of life space, he was completely involved in this storm.
While thinking, Xia Feng was suddenly stunned, and his eyes fell on a middle-aged man in the distant corner.
The man sat alone in a booth, sipping wine comfortably, his face also disguised.
His disguise skills were comparable to those of Oedipus, but Xia Feng still saw through them easily.
And beneath the mask was a face that Xia Feng was very familiar with.
Wei Shutong!
"Old Wei, why is he here?" Xia Feng was slightly surprised. He had not seen Old Wei since he left Area 51 and started his escape career.
After being framed as the real murderer in the garden, the two fled for their lives. Unexpectedly, they met again at Ye Lidongjun's birthday party.
When he saw Lao Wei, Xia Feng remembered what the veteran Li Zaishi said to him when they were in Baidi City.
More than 20 years ago, the only person who was successfully escorted out of the restricted area of Baidi City by the soldiers was Wei Shutong, the son of the city lord Wei Zhong.
Could it be that Old Wei came to this Sky Fortress at this time to assassinate Ye Lidongjun during the birthday party?
Xia Feng's heart sank, and he thought about it before getting up.
He was just about to walk towards Lao Wei when the Apocalypse Knight who had been frantically chewing an apple in the center of the hall suddenly turned his head and looked at him with a cold gaze.
Locked tightly on him.
