*December 500 Gift Value Bonus (Sorry, dears, it's two days late)
"Crack!"
Nolan Lin, who was simultaneously attacked, finally broke through the dark domain that had imprisoned him and his pet.
Seeing Mingxi not far away, like a broken rag doll, her vitality already dissipated, Nolan Lin's eyes were about to split open!
"You bastard! I'll take your life!"
From the shadows, a mysterious figure completely shrouded in a black robe slowly appeared. He sneered in a low voice, his eyes, mostly covered by his hood, swept over Mingxi's body.
It seemed he was confirming her life or death.
A hint of regret flashed in his eyes.
Nolan Lin's strength exceeded his expectations.
He actually broke through the Dark Prison he had deliberately set for him so quickly.
Now the target person's body had been protected by Nolan Lin's pet.
If he wanted to take it away, the price he would have to pay might be very high, and he might even lose his life here if he wasn't careful.
After all, this was Nolan Lin's territory!
Seven Absolute Net and star god scepter, it seemed there was no way to get them back.
He very decisively chose to give up.
His main purpose for this trip was to kill, not to seize treasures.
Now the mission was complete.
Other matters were none of his business!
"Nolan Lin, you are still too naive!"
With that, the black-robed man raised his hand and waved, and countless black butterflies flew towards Nolan Lin.
These black butterflies were neither ghost nor non-ghost, appearing endlessly and moving extremely fast.
"Freezing Wind."
The ice-blue giant beast beside Nolan immediately breathed towards the black butterflies. In the blink of an eye, the black butterflies were cleared, as if the endless darkness was just an illusion.
But the black-robed man behind the black butterflies had long since disappeared.
Only the fallen bodies of Wang Dong and Chen Chenchen remained, their vitality intact, just unconscious.
Nolan Lin's expression was exceptionally solemn.
...Butterfly Demon!?
And this sudden terrifying attack came quickly and subsided just as quickly.
But all the spectators on site were frightened.
Especially the audience in Zone C, which was directly above the resting area.
When the black-robed man attacked Mingxi and Nolan, that area was also affected.
At this time, the area was already a mess due to the Impact of the skills, and countless spectators were injured.
And the girl lying in a pool of blood cast a shadow of death over the Anlin Yalan Arena, which had stood for hundreds of years.
"Ming Shen!"
"Captain!"
"Mingxi!"
Yu Xuantong and others rushed over, their faces as pale as paper.
"Wuwuwu..."
Upon seeing Mingxi's shattered body, Jia Xiaoxiao and others could not help but cry.
Even Yu Xuantong and Yuan Hu stumbled, almost collapsing to their knees.
How could they accept such a tragic Mingxi?
Yuan Hu carefully and unsteadily approached Mingxi's body, his tiger-like eyes showing a glimmer of tears. He tremblingly stretched out his hands.
...Ming, Mingxi...
The girl did not respond to him. The blood flowing from her body stained his large hands.
Sticky.
It suffocated him.
Nolan Lin sighed softly.
Suddenly, he met Yuan Hu's gaze, full of suspicion and questioning.
...I'm sorry, I didn't protect her well.
The attack happened too suddenly, without any warning beforehand, and a trap specifically targeting him had been set.
More importantly, he did not feel any killing intent or anything amiss.
It was clear that the assailant had meticulously planned this assassination, with the goal of killing Mingxi in an instant, making rescue impossible.
"The assailant is very likely the Butterfly Demon." fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
It wasn't that he was careless, but that the assailant's identity was too unexpected.
Upon hearing his words, Yuan Hu and Yu Xuantong's faces instantly turned as if someone had splashed them with ink.
Both were horrified: "How is that possible?!"
Nolan sighed heavily again.
"I also hope it's not him." But, that aura, and the skill just now...
He really couldn't deceive himself that the black-robed man wasn't the Butterfly Demon.
The atmosphere grew even more solemn.
"Vice Dean, Mingxi, she..."
Lu Yun Shen didn't know who the 'Butterfly Demon' they were talking about was, and he didn't care. He only cared about Mingxi's condition now.
Yuan Hu came to his senses and shook his head at him.
"Wuwuwu..."
At this, several boys who had previously managed to hold back their tears now burst into loud sobs.
"Impossible! How could she just be gone like this!"
"Coach, you must be lying to us!"
"Wuwuwu... Mingxi, Ming Shen, don't die..."
...
The news of Mingxi being assassinated by a powerful individual at the Blue Sun Cup and dying young hung on the entire Blue Star network for three days, and the heat still hadn't faded.
A genius new star who should have shone for centuries suddenly fell.
It was not only Dragonflower Country's loss but also the world's loss.
The fall of the alliance first genius!
It was equivalent to a god's demise.
Suweia City, which is dry and receives rain less than ten times a year, had been raining continuously since that day. The drizzling rain sounded as if Blue Star was also mourning the girl's passing.
The Blue Sun Cup finals still proceeded as scheduled.
Audiences from all over the world packed the repaired Anlin Yalan Arena inside and out, making it impassable.
But no one was noisy or boisterous.
The crowded people arrived quietly, watched the competition silently.
Then watched the final awards ceremony.
The champions and runners-up in the individual track were: Champion Mingxi from Dragonflower Country, Runner-up Lu Yun Shen from Dragonflower Country, and Third Place Xia Ma from the Republic of Angie.
Although Mingxi 'died young' and couldn't participate in the finals with Lu Yun Shen, because Lu Yun Shen voluntarily conceded, the individual champion was still Mingxi.
In the team track, Mingxi was the third-place winner. It wasn't that Lu Yun Shen and Jia Xiaoxiao were unwilling to concede, but Mingxi's attack was sudden, and the top three round-robin matches hadn't started yet.
If they voluntarily conceded, the championship would go to someone else.
So Mingxi could only settle for third place.
But everyone knew in their hearts that she was the MVP player of the 55th Blue Sun Cup, and truly the uncrowned king!
...Why are you back so late?
Seeing Yuan Hu return with a grim face, Yu Xuantong asked curiously.
Yuan Hu's lips curled into a cold sneer: "Nothing, I was invited for coffee by the King of Tanzania."
Yu Xuantong frowned: "Again for that matter?"
"What else could it be for?"
Ever since news of Mingxi's death broke, the Suweia Royal Family had been sending people to negotiate, wanting to retrieve the star god scepter.
Dream on!
Yu Xuantong: "Why do you think they are so firmly convinced that the star god scepter did not fall into the assassin's hands?"
The sneer on Yuan Hu's lips grew colder.
"What else could it be for? They're all birds of a feather."
The Suweia Royal Family must have received accurate information to come to them for negotiations again and again.
The former Suweia Royal Family could lose their humanity for the sake of seizing the star god scepter, annihilating an entire clan to snatch their supreme treasure.
The current Royal Family, naturally, can also choose to conspire with the enemy and willingly degrade themselves for the star god scepter.
"Let's not talk about those troublesome things. Is there any new news about Mingxi?"
