Chapter 846: The Overall Situation has been Decided
When Su Xiao scratched his head while thinking about this question, he didn't consider it when he detonated the second Apollo. He was only thinking about how to kill Xi. This woman was too strong. Su Xiao would not be her match if it were a one-on-one. The other party could revive, and the ability to restore was something he hadn't even heard of before, let alone seen.
"Flame Chen, dead?"
Su Xiao shouted, and dozens of contractees behind him perked up their ears.
"Almost! Have you eaten Devil Fruit? Where did this much magma come from?"
A furious roar came from the third floor. At this moment, Flame Chen looked a bit messy. He stabbed the magic spell into the ceiling, holding the gun barrel like a monkey. His sister grabbed onto his belt. Fortunately, most of the energy inside the third-floor shelter had been dispersed by Apollo's explosion. Otherwise, whether Flame Chen's spear could pierce through was still being determined.
"Qianqian, grab the top; my pants are about to fall off."
While Flame Chen spoke, his pants slipped down with a swish sound. Fortunately, Flame Chen reacted quickly, using his toes to hook the belt.
Qianqian looked at the magma beneath her feet and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"La la la~"
Qianqian sang a song while swinging back and forth on Flame Chen's belt.Noticing this scene, Flame Chen, wearing boxer briefs and holding the Magic Spear, felt highly irritated.
"Baiye, what the heck?"
While Flame Chen was waiting for the magma to recede, Su Xiao's shout came from the upper level.
"This is an accident."
Hearing Su Xiao's shout, Flame Chen rolled his eyes in anger.
Not far behind Flame Chen, a beautiful woman named L was grabbed by two pink elves on her shoulders, fluttering their wings, allowing L to float in mid-air.
Watching this scene, L's mouth twitched violently. Her Boss was holding the gun like a monkey, wearing boxer briefs, hanging a belt on one foot, and swinging back and forth with his sister.
L constantly reminded herself not to laugh. This was her Boss, and her Boss was abnormal. She couldn't laugh, but she was about to reach her limit.
Perhaps due to the intense battle earlier, there was a hole in Flame Chen's boxer briefs at the buttocks position. L found it somewhat unbearable to look at but also marvelled that her Boss had fair skin on his butt.
"Bro, someone's peeping at you."
Qianqian looked at L with a smile.
"Huh?"
Flame Chen turned his head and looked at L, startling her.
"Boss, I wasn't peeking at you. I was looking at the magma; it's so white, no! It's so red, uh~ Boss, I'm sorry."
Seeing L's reaction, Flame Chen smiled and adjusted his boxer briefs.
"It has a hole, I know. I was wondering earlier why it felt so breezy."
Flame Chen didn't care about such trivial matters. What he cared about was when the ground magma would cool down.
The third floor was lively, and the second floor was even more chaotic. The walls, ceilings, and feet of the fourth floor had melted due to the high temperature, and the magma not only spread to the third floor but also affected the second floor.
At this time, over three hundred survivors from the Paradise of Dawn were still fleeing outside the Twilight Palace. To them, this place was no longer the Twilight Palace; it felt more like the Doomsday Palace.
As a large amount of magma descended, these people couldn't resist it and could only escape to the lower floors.
If the threat were only the magma, that would be manageable. However, several contractees from Cycle Paradise who had previously been with Flame Chen were now chasing them.
"Sun Thief, don't run away, hahaha."
One of the Cycle Paradise's contractees didn't even look at the magma behind him and punched a contractee from the Paradise of Dawn in the back of his head.
Dozens of contractees chasing hundreds was a rare sight. In the past, the contractees from the Paradise of Dawn wouldn't have been so miserable. But just a moment ago, their leader, Xi, died.
This was a thunderbolt from a clear sky for the contractees from the Paradise of Dawn. Some of them had been working under Xi since the First Order, and in their eyes, Xi was an invincible legend.
Now that the invincible legend had died, the morale of the contractees from the Paradise of Dawn plummeted. Add to that the pursuit from dozens of lunatics plus the lethal magma; they had no other choice but to escape.
When more than three hundred contractees reached the first floor, the scene before them stunned them.
There was a strong smell of flames and blood on the first floor. Broken bodies were scattered everywhere, estimated to be the corpses of at least dozens of people.
Among the shattered bodies, a black-haired, red-eyed youth was sound asleep. As for the suicide squad, they had been driven by the contractees from the Paradise of Dawn into the round pit below. The chances of their survival weren't high.
The noise woke the black-blooded youth, and he sleepily opened his eyes.
"Another batch? Sigh, unlucky, I can only continue."
The black-blooded youth stood up, blocking one of the exits of the Twilight Palace.
Seeing the black-blooded youth, many contractees from the Paradise of Dawn recognized him as that Taliban player. These contractees groaned in pain.
"Escape!"
Defeated like a landslide, everything they experienced today in the Twilight Palace would be unforgettable.
Although the black-blooded youth blocked one exit, there were three in total. A large group of contractees fled outside the Twilight Palace.
"Ah, what's with that? Not going to fight?"
The black-blooded youth raised his hand, confused at the fleeing contractees' behaviour. If it were him, he definitely wouldn't escape.
The dozens of contractees from Cycle Paradise didn't continue the pursuit. Although they were crazy, they weren't stupid. They absolutely couldn't leave the Twilight Palace now. After the threat of magma had gone, the enemy might surround and kill them, considering the numerical advantage. There were only two fierce individuals on their side, one trapped on the fifth floor (Su Xiao) and one hanging in the balance on the third floor (Flame Chen).
Flame Chen's choice was not stupid. He was preventing it in advance. Even if the magma spread down, he didn't leave the area near the stairs from the third to the fourth floor. This was to prevent Xi from escaping. It wasn't that he was afraid, but just in case. If Xi had a chance to escape and regroup, the final victory between both sides was still uncertain.
After the magma spread to the first floor, it stopped. It took several hours for the magma to cool down.
Flame Chen shook the gun barrel, and his sister Qianqian landed first. Flame Chen first pulled up his pants, followed by a 'Palm of Love' to Qianqian's head, causing the twin-tailed Qianqian to crouch down and hug her head.
Flame Chen glanced at L and smiled. "Today's events must be publicized."
"Huh? What? I was blind just now. You know I normally have poor eyesight."
L was quite sensible. Seeing the irritated Flame Chen, she walked away towards the fourth floor. As soon as she entered the fourth floor, a heat wave and a burnt smell hit her face.
"So hot."
Flame Chen took a step back in surprise. The fourth floor was still too hot for him.
"It'll take at least a few more hours for the temperature here to be acceptable."
Su Xiao sat shirtless in the depths of the fourth floor, his face appearing.
Seeing Su Xiao, Flame Chen's mouth silently opened and closed, 'cordial' greetings to Su Xiao.
"Xi is dead?"
Flame Chen's expression remained calm.
"Dead, but... You seemed to be cursing at me just now."
"How could that be?"
Flame Chen denied it outright.
"Speaking of which, those remnants of the enemy are unlikely to attack the Twilight Palace again. In other words, we won."
Flame Chen sighed with relief. Dealing with Xi was difficult. Leading a group of frightened teammates, they had repelled the Cycle Paradise several times. He felt a bit sorry for Xi. If she had stayed in Cycle Paradise, she would have been a formidable player in the future.
"More or less. After Xi's death, those people lost their leader and didn't pose much of a threat. Without any surprises, we've won."
Su Xiao flicked a crystal in his hand, the only one not melted by the high temperature created by Xi.
With a click, Su Xiao crushed the crystal between his fingers.
"A group of idiotic teammates. Even someone like Xi was dragged to death. It's extraordinary."
The fragments of the crystal slipped through Su Xiao's fingers. He had activated the mechanisms inside the Twilight Palace and turned this place into an 'iron bucket'. Now, his choice back then was wise.
The balance of the war tilted to the Cycle Paradise's side to the maximum. At this stage of the World War, the chances of the Paradise of Dawn invading the Twilight Palace were minimal. Not to mention the over one hundred deranged contractees on the Cycle Paradise's side, the current Paradise of Dawn's forces couldn't stop Su Xiao and Flame Chen. This was a deadly point.
The world war had reached this point, and the overall situation was almost decided.
