After going through such a dangerous and bitter battle, Ye Zheng defeated an enemy he had never faced before. However, in the end, he was still chased away by An Nuo and he lost the chance to solve the problem once and for all.

Gao Xiaowen lightly walked up, held onto his arm, and gently said. "I knew you would come and help me."

"I've taken many detours, but I haven't found out who my enemies and friends are."

Ye Zheng sighed as he pulled Gao Xiaowen into her embrace. He raised his head to the sky and looked at the bright moon as it floated out of the clouds, and said: "I have always been rejecting those thoughts in my heart. I was wrong. "

"What's your next plan?"

Gao Xiaowen asked.

"Do I have a place in the Seven-pointed Star?"

Ye Zheng's smile was somewhat bitter.

"Light of Light, listen to me: your seat will always be in the hall of the Seven-pointed Star."

Gao Xiaowen's voice trembled in surprise.

After experiencing so much heartless betrayal, frequent pursuit, and bloody battles, Ye Zheng was finally willing to turn back?

If he sincerely pledged his allegiance, with this top-notch combat power of the Seven-Point Star, his great career would be smooth sailing!

Ye Zheng nodded and looked at Kessler: "The monsters that invaded the castle almost killed Xiao Chuhuan who was unconscious due to the poison, but I have already cleaned them all up. Thank you for taking care of Miss Shaw. "

"Thank you."

Kessler's voice was hoarse and weak.

"I destroyed all the serum in your institute."

Ye Zheng stared into Kessler's eyes and slowly said, "I can tell that your research has improved a lot. But I won't allow you to make your own monsters. This technique is called Plague. "

"Then... What if An Nuo makes a comeback? "

Kessler's body trembled slightly with fatigue, pain, and fear.

"President Kessler, the agreement between the Seven Stars and the Shan Wang Group is still valid."

Gao Xiaowen said.

This sentence was ambiguous, and could be understood to mean, "The Seven-pointed Star will not take advantage of someone's predicament to seize the Mountain King's interest."

It could also be read as "The Seven Stars will help Mountain King deal with potential threats."

Kessler lowered his head and clenched his fists, his nails digging deep into the flesh of his palms.

Ye Zheng did not speak anymore, and left the top floor of the castle side by side with Gao Xiaowen.

Kessler created the demon, An Nuo, and opened Pandora's box. However, he did not have the power to close it.

His clothes had long been drenched, and under the influence of the sea breeze, he felt a chill down his spine. Shan Wang Group had suffered so many blows and her vitality was greatly damaged.

Although the Sevenstar had also suffered a great loss, Gao Xiaowen and the other important forces like the Light of Fire still existed. With Ye Zheng as the decisive weight, it would be difficult for the Mountain King to be on equal footing with the Sevenstar in the future.

Gao Xiaowen left Kessler to clean up the battlefield while she led her men to retreat.

The convoy of the Seven-pointed Star left the devastated Shan Wang Group Castle and drove on the road after the rain. The wheels of the carriage drove past the puddles of water, causing patches of muddy water to splash out.

Ye Zheng and Gao Xiaowen sat in the back seat side by side, thinking of something.

"What are you thinking?"

Gao Xiaowen asked.

"Our business."

Ye Zheng's eyes shone brightly in the darkness. "The Lord said that the reason we came to the East Ocean Continent was to obtain the tools of an ancient civilization: Soul Stripper. After so many twists and turns, we still didn't get what we wanted in the end. "

"Ye Zheng, you and I should be honest with each other. Have you really agreed to join the Heptagram Group?"

Gao Xiaowen's tone was very calm: "According to my understanding of you, you are a heavy cannonball that is difficult to pull back, your thoughts are as firm as a boulder, and you possess a deep hostility toward the seven-pointed star."

"People change."

Ye Zheng said indifferently.

"You won't."

Gao Xiaowen said with certainty: "I'm guessing that your enmity towards the Sevenglow Star hasn't disappeared. Your actions are just to find out more secrets."

"I've fought on your side many times."

Ye Zheng said depressingly.

"That's another matter."

Gao Xiaowen sighed: "I understand you, you can come and go to hell for me at any time, but you won't go against your own nature and principles."

"Then, what should I do? Only the seven-pointed star is willing to trust me?"

Ye Zheng asked.

"Help us get the key."

Gao Xiaowen said.

"Key?"

Ye Zheng was stunned, for a moment he was at a loss.

"Soul stripper."

Gao Xiaowen said: "In fact, the soul stripper is not only an ancient civilization's weapon, it is also the key to unlocking an important secret."

"It's just a hearsay about children."

Ye Zheng snorted: "In my opinion, this thing's firing speed is too slow. In terms of utility, it cannot even compare to an old-fashioned AK-47."

"As I've said, the soul stripper is a key, not a weapon."

Gao Xiaowen was a little impatient. "The success of the Seven-pointed Star depends on whether or not these secrets can be discovered."

Ye Zheng's heart trembled, he vaguely felt that he was getting closer and closer to a terrifying and dark secret.

Once this secret was revealed, the world view of the human species would change dramatically.

In fact … Even survival had become an extravagant hope.

"There are a total of three soul stripper machines. The High Lord had one in his hand, the highest leader of the trident, Murong Xin, had one, and the last one was in Kessler's hands. However, when Kessler was fighting An Nuo, the thing was sent flying. Who knows if it fell into the dark sea, or into an inconspicuous corner of the forest in front of the castle. "

Gao Xiaowen sighed.

"It might have broken."

Ye Zheng said.

"Impossible, the soul stripper is made from alloy technology that humans don't have the ability to master. Even if it's a high explosive bomb, it still can't destroy it."

Gao Xiaowen said confidently: "However, we will be the first to get to the water tower. Kessler will definitely command his subordinates to find the missing soul peeler first. The next step, when we completely get rid of the threat of Trident and An Nuo, we will have the power to take care of Kessler and seize this critical piece of equipment from him. "

Suddenly, a black shadow appeared in front of the caravan without any warning. The rubber wheel slid on the wet ground for a long time before stopping.

The seven-pointed star inside the car was clearly well-trained. It quickly jumped out of the car and, using the body of the car as a cover, it raised its automatic weapon and aimed it at the uninvited guest.

Under the light of the lantern, a man dressed in orange armor stood in front of the convoy, and walked towards the car that Gao Xiaowen was in.

Even though his expression could not be seen, his actions were full of energy and arrogance.

"Hernandez."

Gao Xiaowen waved her hand, her subordinate kept the automatic weapon in her hand and retreated to the side.

Her tone was ice-cold, and the coldness in her eyes was bone-piercing. "Light of Fire, you abandoned me and ran for your life?"

"It's better for one person to die than two."

The voice was calm, not the slightest bit apologetic.

"I will report your actions to the High Lord."

Gao Xiaowen threatened.

"To a High Lord, my contribution this time is the greatest."

The light of fire didn't seem to mind Gao Xiaowen's threat as he raised her right hand. On the metal armor, there was a soul stripper.
