Other yers had experiences simr to the Zhen Hong Squad; half an hour after receiving the mission, they began to discover their ‘Clue One’ sessively.
The content of ‘Clue One’ varied; some involved saving injured civilians, some involved killing rabid animals, and some involved dealing with criminals taking advantage of the chaos.
After a forum discussion, everyone found that ‘Clue One’ was irrelevant in 99.9% of the urrences, except for one lucky yer called ‘Insane Piano Key,’ who obtained a valid clue.
Through this valid clue, yers conjectured that Xi Fan’s hiding ce is likely in the eastern civilian area of the city!
As a result, the yers abandoned all other areas and all came to the eastern civil district to explore.
Hundreds of thousands of yers participated in a block-by-block search, assisting civilians throughout the eastern district’s streets.
Eventually, one valid clue after another was sessfully found.
Su Yu’s main quest was also rted to these clues – ‘The Glory of the Forsythia Empire,’ stages 37-39.
Following the other yers, he unravelled these clues andpleted two of Xi Fan’s high-difficulty maze decryption tasks.
Ultimately, during the 40th stage of the task, in a house in the civilian district yet to copse, Su Yu and the yers sessfully found the injured Xi Fan and promptly notified Princess Alyssa.
A few minutester.
A dazzling sword light streaked across the sky, and the roof of the sturdy stone house was cut away as easily as tofu.
Alyssa held a silvernce, floating in the sky.
She looked coldly at Xi Fan, who was sitting in the house below, with a dozen colorful [Stun Patterns] floating behind her, the symbol of thebat mage profession.
Now, Alyssa has been fully blessed by the Guardian’s avatar, her strength reaching the seventh step’s peak.
Of course, this power is of an “external” nature.
The Princess herself only has the power of the fourth step, but she can temporarily activate this part of the power to reach the peak of the seventh step to fend off enemies. It doesn’t belong to her alone.
And the more she uses this power, the less it bes, so she must use it cautiously at the most critical moment.
Xi Fan’s face is unusually pale now, and he’s in pretty bad shape. The ck fog on his body is swirling irregrly, almost unable to suppress his internal injuries.
Xi Fan still finds it hard to believe that he’s ended up in such a dire situation.
He initially thought he could fulfil his long-cherished wish to be the thirteenth god level powerhouse in this world!
But to his surprise, Madeline’s terrifying self-destructpletely shattered his dream.
Madeline’s self-destruction not only caused him to fail in his breakthrough but his overall strength fell straight from 84 to 82, suffering serious injuries.
While there may seem to be only a two-level difference between 82 and 84, the power gained from each level up exponentially increases in theter stages. The power at level 84 is almost twice that of level 82.
That means, Xi Fan’s strength had been nearly halved. Add serious injuries to the mix, and his current power was less than a quarter of his peak.
Afterwards, Kevin Forsythia continuously pursued him without a break, leaving him no time to recuperate and his injuries to worsen instead.
By now, Xi Fan seemed to understand that he was destined to die this day.
He looked up, facing Alyssa’s gaze with a nk face, “If I’m not mistaken, Alyssa, you should have obtained a part of that old guy, Kevin Forsythia’s power, right?”
Alyssa didn’t answer as she secretly gathered her magic power, preparing to release a powerful strike to kill Xi Fan.
“But with just you, how could you trap me?” Xi Fan disdainfully got up, unafraid to meet Alyssa’s gaze.
But at that moment, three powerful figures appeared at the exact east, south, and west sides of the house.
These three powerful figures coolly looked at Xi Fan, “What if we join?”
These three, of course, were the Empire’s seventh-step powerhouses. They were Sharon, the Chief Mage of the royal family, Rnd, the Tower Master of Silver Pine, and Andrew, the legendary mercenary of the Mercenary Guild.
During Madeline’s earth-shattering self-destruction, the Empire Marshal, Charles Forsythia, had fallen unexpectedly, while Rnd and Andrew were seriously injured, with Sharon being slightly injured.
Although they were all injured, they had to stand up and make their stance clear at this critical juncture.
The Princess was currently in the lead, so they logically stood by the Princess’s side. They helped whoever won.
Looking at the three same-level adversaries in the sky, Xi Fan knew he definitely couldn’t escape today.
At the end of his life, he suddenly thought of Madeline, an old enemy he had been entangled with for a thousand years.
Madeline ruined his path of evolution with her self-destruction and destroyed herself as well.
“What about me? Could I also destroy the future of the Forsythia Empire with my sacrifice?” Xi Fan’s eyes grew perilously dangerous.
Alyssa, Sharon, Rnd, Andrew.
Among these four, two were seriously injured. If he were to self-destruct like Madeline, he could probably take at least two with him!
By then, without the support of high-ranking powerhouses, the Forsythia Empire would be history!
With this in mind, the ck fog around Xi Fan suddenly started to surge violently. He transformed into an arrow formed of ck fog, rushing towards Alyssa with an unstoppable force.
“Haha, Forsythia Empire, let’s go to hell together!”
Amid Xi Fan’s manicughter, the fog-arrow closed in on Alyssa.
But Alyssa was not panicked at all.
Because Su Yu had long guessed that Xi Fan might self-destruct and had given her a weapon in advance.
With a wave of her small hand, the weapon that Su Yu had given her was brought out.
It was a rusty long sword, indeed the ‘Best Sword in the Vige.’
“Take this!” Alyssa shouted softly and pointed the rusty sword at Xi Fan.
With a crisp ‘bang,’ the de separated from the hilt and fell to the ground.
At the same time, Xi Fan fell into a state of ‘surprise.’
Although the ‘surprise’ state onlysted for about 0.5 seconds, this state had an absolutely severe consequence – his self-destruction process was interrupted!
The interrupted self-destruct sequence caused him to be overwhelmed by a counterattack of massive magic, forcing him to spit out a mouthful of blood.
“Is it a weapon ofw?! How is the Vige Chief’s sword in your hands?” Xi Fan gawked at the sword hilt in Alyssa’s hand.
“There’s no time to exin! Xi Fan, now it’s time to pay for the tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians who died because of you!”
“[Shining Dragon Crescent sh]!”
The mighty Shining Dragon Crescent sh was summoned by Alyssa, stabbing directly into the ck fog around Xi Fan.
The golden [Dragon’s Pattern] on the Shining Dragon Crescent sh exploded.
Bang!
A deafening explosion, Xi Fan waspletely engulfed by the explosion.
Xi Fan’s life force disappeared rapidly in the explosion.
In the end, Xi Fan, a generation of prominent figures, saw his life of sin ended by the Princess’ powerful strike.
Xi Fan,pletely fallen.
