At this moment, the burly knight commanding a hundred men from Silver City saw that Fan Xiao and his men were struggling and performing worse than his own soldiers, and immediately began to curse.

Mercenaries hired with money... is that all?

After cursing a few times, he glanced at Longxi Village not far away and loudly ordered, "Retreat to Longxi Village!"

The Obsidian City side had more people than them, and with their ambush advantage, they struck them hard first, inflicting heavy losses. If the fight continued, they would likely be wiped out.

After shouting, the burly knight cleaved the enemy with a single sword strike and led the retreat towards Longxi Village.

The soldiers, no longer able to continue fighting, repelled their respective enemies and followed one after another.

Seeing this, Fan Xiao and the others were just about to slack off...

"You bunch of useless trash! Get on my heels!"

"..."

Left with no other choice, Fan Xiao and his men could only fight and retreat, and the battle was "fierce" all the way.

Fan Xiao took out a blood bag from his storage space, put it in his mouth and bit it, immediately spitting out blood, his face extremely grim.

The handsome young man who was fighting with him was shocked: "Holy crap... bro, you... you even carry something like this with you?"

"What's so strange about making extra preparations when you're traveling?"

Fan Xiao said in a calm tone.

The two forces chased and fled, fighting their way into the heart of Longxi Village. The villagers, terrified by the shouts of battle, had already fled back into their houses.

Bang! The burly knight leading the Silver City party kicked open the wooden door of one of the houses.

He and two soldiers rushed into the house, dragged out a family of three who were hiding inside, held knives to their necks, and, under the protection of his own soldiers, threatened the Obsidian City commander who had pursued them, saying, "If you make another move, I'll kill them! And then I'll slaughter everyone in this village!"

"what……"

A scream mixed with fear rang out.

Among the family of three held captive by soldiers, the couple struggled, seemingly trying to save their child.

*Thud*—The husband was stabbed through the heart by the burly knight and died instantly; his body fell to the ground.

"If you keep chattering, I'll send you to join him!"

On the other side, Fan Xiao frowned slightly when he saw this scene.

This is not the way to go.

Just as he was pondering a solution, the soldiers of Obsidian City had already surrounded him again, each one looking fierce and menacing.

They completely disregarded the lives of the villagers in Longxi Village and planned to launch a fierce attack.

"Stop it all!"

Just then, a low growl that seemed capable of shattering eardrums burst onto the battlefield like a lion.

In less than two seconds, all the soldiers covered their ears and knelt on the ground, their faces contorted in pain.

Fan Xiao and the others also felt a little uncomfortable, so they quickly followed suit and pretended to kneel on the ground, their expressions becoming uncomfortable.

"what……!"

"Uh……"

Suddenly, two screams rang out.

The two soldiers who were holding the mother and child in a family of three with their knives were suddenly sent flying several meters away, their long knives shattering into pieces scattered on the ground.

They fell heavily to the ground, howling in pain, as if their arms had been broken.

Fan Xiao and the others turned their heads to look, and saw a tall figure, over 1.9 meters tall, appear in front of the burly knight leading the Silver City party.

The figure stood high above the knight, his handsome face filled with anger and murderous intent.

"Demons... Demon race!?"

"No...don't come any closer!!"

The burly knight was terrified and uncontrollably sat down on the ground, retreating backward with both hands and feet.

The tall figure stared coldly at the fleeing knight, and said in a hoarse voice that sounded like it was being squeezed from his throat, "You... want to massacre the village, is that it?"

He then looked at the soldiers of Obsidian City: "You... you completely disregard the lives of the villagers, don't you?"

No one dared to answer his question.

The coldness emanating from the tall figure was like a fierce wind blowing from the north, cutting one's face like a knife and chilling one's back.

"You despicable humans..."

"Stop, Carmen."

A slightly gentle voice suddenly rang out.

Fan Xiao and the others turned their heads and looked in the direction of the sound. They saw a tall, handsome young man in exquisitely tailored aristocratic attire walking towards them.

"This... be careful, he is none other than Caesar the True King."

The handsome young man squatting opposite Fan Xiao suddenly changed his expression and whispered a reminder.

King Caesar walked up to the tall figure and said, "You should stop, Carmen. If you continue, you will break the rules."

"Rules?" Carmen, the Demon King, said in a hoarse voice, "Tell me, whose rules are they!"

"The rules that the Celestial Race has upheld for thousands of years."

Caesar glanced at the people around him, then looked away, his expression cold and his voice calm: "Their wars are a natural law of rise and fall, as has been the case throughout history. But your intervention changes everything."

"You're still so... stubborn!" Carmen's eyes blazed with anger. "Why? Together, we could make everything better! Why are you unwilling to do anything, yet you still... try to stop me?"

“I can’t let you break the rules,” Caesar the True King shook his head. “They have their own destiny. The Celestials and the Demons should not be involved in this war.”

"What if I... only kill a few despicable people?"

"The Celestial Race are the guardians of humanity."

"..."

Carmen glanced at Caesar, then at the kneeling, terrified people around her, and gradually suppressed the anger in her eyes: "Caesar, my friend, are you going to stop me again?"

Caesar remained silent.

Carmen stared at him for a few moments, then her anger completely subsided, and she sighed softly, "Fine... this time, I'll give you face again."

After saying that, he roared at the armies of Silver City and Obsidian City, "Get out!"

Like thunder piercing the sky, the beastly roar made everyone feel dizzy.

By the time the soldiers realized what was happening, they were already filled with fear and had no will to resist.

They all stood up and scattered like birds and beasts, quickly leaving Longxi Village and fleeing back the way they came.

Fan Xiao and the other players hung behind their own faction's army, slowly following along.

The leading knight seemed to have been terrified and no longer paid attention to their movements.

Fan Xiao and Nei Long exchanged glances and slowly reduced their following speed, soon falling behind the completely wrecked army.

"This must be free time... Damn! It's almost dark, finally it's here!"

"Let's go and meet up with the players in Obsidian City first. They've probably broken away from their own faction's army as well."

Fan Xiao looked towards Longxi Village and said, "The sudden appearance of Caesar the True King and Carmen the Demon King here... is a bit too much of a coincidence. Perhaps Longxi Village is hiding some secret..."

“Longxi Village, Longxi Coast Lighthouse… it’s hard not to associate these two places.”

Nelong nodded and said, "We should go and investigate thoroughly. However, we should wait until Caesar and Carmen have left."

Chapter 413 Leaving a Bad Impression on My Junior Sister

5:17 PM.

Players from Silver City and Obsidian City met up on the outskirts of Longxi Village.

Fan Xiao glanced at the opposite side and found that only six players from Obsidian City had come; the hooded girl was nowhere to be seen.

"That hooded woman isn't really one of our teammates. She hasn't said a word to us since we entered the dungeon."

A young man with a samurai-style haircut, fair cheeks, and a light makeup-like appearance stepped forward and said to Fan Xiao and his group of seven, "If you want revenge, just go find her directly. We won't interfere if you kill her; this matter has nothing to do with us."

"That guy is a mentally unstable lunatic!"

Next to the samurai head, a female player dressed in a pure and innocent style quickly chimed in, "She killed three teammates from the same faction as soon as she entered the dungeon. It's simply incomprehensible!"

"Don't worry, we have no intention of seeking revenge."

Fan Xiao smiled slightly and said, "Those two uniformed guys who died weren't close to us. We'd only known each other for less than half a day. Who would be so idle as to risk offending a powerful enemy to avenge them? Would you?"

The hooded girl is very likely the "third student" chosen by Tina.

In other words, there is a very high probability that the other party will become his junior sister.

Therefore, he doesn't mind saying a few words on the other party's behalf.

Although we can't use the items and secondary items now, we can't confirm whether the other party is an assassin.

But given the strange strength this hooded girl had previously displayed... Fan Xiao felt that it was most likely her.

“Of course not,” the handsome young man replied to Fan Xiao. “Who would risk their life for a stranger? Someone who could do that probably wouldn’t even reach C-rank; they would have died in a dungeon long ago.”

He glanced at his teammates and said, "I told you not to worry about this."

"How many players did you have at the beginning?" Nelong asked.

"15."

"Uh... how come there are only 7 left?"

"The situation in Silver City and Obsidian City should be the same, right? You also only have 7 left..."

The handsome young man stopped speaking abruptly halfway through his sentence.

He remembered that two players from the opposing team had been killed by the hooded girl, and the hood... although he didn't want to admit it, the woman was indeed on their side.

Once those words were actually spoken, they sounded somewhat sarcastic.

He changed his tone and said, "Sigh... Actually, on our side, only three players who ate people actually died because they were courting death. The rest..."

The handsome young man repeated what he had told Fan Xiao.

After hearing this, Nei Long and the others subconsciously looked at Fan Xiao, feeling a sense of relief.

There's also someone in the group who's smart; otherwise, they'd probably be partying by now.

When Caesar the true king arrives, no one will be able to escape!

"Let's not talk about idle chatter for now."

Fan Xiao turned his gaze to the handsome young man and asked, "You should have already told your teammates what I told you before, right?"

"I told you."

The handsome young man nodded: "Cooperation is possible, but we need to know your specific plan first, assess its feasibility, and then discuss whether to agree."

"It should."

Fan Xiao nodded, and just as he was about to explain the plan, he suddenly turned his head subconsciously and looked at a big tree at the edge of the rainforest.

There, the hooded girl appeared at some point and stood under the tree, leaning against the trunk. The hood still covered her hair and part of her face, leaving only her fair and delicate chin visible.

She seemed to want to hear about Fan Xiao's plan... or rather, she wanted to know what information the players in Silver City had.

Everyone followed Fan Xiao's gaze and their expressions changed when they saw the hooded girl.

Among them, the samurai with the head hair, who had tried his best to distance himself from the situation when he first opened his mouth, had a moment of gloom on his face, but then quickly changed to a gentle expression and said to the hooded girl, "This... Miss Hooded, since you're here, why don't you come over and discuss the plan together? It's very dangerous for you to travel alone. After all, we are teammates, so it's better to act together."

The other party probably didn't hear what he just said, right?

The hooded girl ignored the samurai head and remained leaning against the tree trunk, showing no intention of moving.

Very wary… Fan Xiao glanced at her a few times before looking away and recounting the information he had gathered: “The True King Caesar is incredibly powerful. To eliminate him, we, with our items sealed, are probably not enough. Therefore, we need to utilize the Dark Space. The Dark Space is…”

He was generous with his information, saying everything that needed to be said.

After hearing this, everyone felt a great sense of dread about the dark space.

At the same time, there was also some anticipation.
