Across Deep Space: Four Men and a Play

Chapter 178 Prophet Li——Killed, everyone was shocked.

After the death of Dragon Scorpion, the wandering bodies that were originally summoned to the central area instantly lost control and were quickly killed by the people from several major empires that were resisting outside the central area.

The vibration in the central area also made everyone realize that the most terrifying wandering entity had been killed.

"This is... the wandering body was killed?!"

Seeing the magical halo and strange power fluctuations emerging from the dense forest, someone reacted instantly.

Everyone immediately ignored their own embarrassing state and had only one thought in their mind, that is.

The Ether Core has appeared!

He reacted quickly and rushed into the depths immediately.

"You think beautifully."

Someone snorted coldly and used his special ability to attack the person in front of him, imprisoning him in place, and then rushed past him and rushed inside.

The trapped person's eyes instantly turned red, and he used his special powers to break free from the restraints and fight back.

In just a few minutes, the entire periphery turned into a battlefield of mutual fighting.

When everyone finally arrived at the central area, they saw the captains of the two top teams on the entire Philos star surrounding a woman. Their attitude was very polite, even a little flattering.

And the ether core that they had tried so hard to fight for was also in her hands.

Everyone:? ? ? ?

Wait....what's going on?

Who is this woman?

Why was he able to get here before so many others and even get the Ethereum core?

How is this going?

No one saw any change in her expression, and they immediately thought that someone was being partial. There was no one else in this place except the people from the Temple and Zongheng.

Everyone naturally connected the dots and their faces suddenly turned extremely ugly.

Someone recognized that the man was the one who had helped them resist the high-level wandering bodies outside before. It seemed that he was... from the Mosta Empire!

"It's her! The Duke of Mosta!"

The man immediately pointed out the identity of the woman without hesitation.

"what?"

"how is this possible?"

"So it was her, the one who helped us fend off the stray bodies. She's said to be the new Duke of Mosta."

Many people looked at the eldest prince, the third prince and their group with dark eyes. "Mosta is really a good trick."

He actually got there first quietly.

Someone said, "Isn't it a bit against the rules for Mosta to do this?"

The major imperial forces, the Temple, and the Zongheng Team had reached an agreement many years ago.

The special organizations of the Temple and the Vertical and Horizontal Team are supported by the ten major empires. Those who kill ultra-high-risk wandering bodies are not allowed to participate in the competition for the ether core, while the ten major empires compete fairly with each other.

But what happens now?

Is Mosta doing something behind the scenes?

Isn't this a bit too much of a disregard for other empires?

Are they trying to start a war?

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became tense.

It was only then that Xia Jiumeng became aware of the presence of these people and slowly turned her head to look at them.

"You can't use this core."

Under everyone's puzzled gazes, she took out the core. Only then did everyone see clearly that the ether core was covered with cracks and looked like it was about to dissipate at any time.

It was unbelievable.

"How can this be?"

"How could this be?"

Some people thought she had switched the items and immediately asked sternly, "Did you do something?"

"How could a stray body that was just killed possibly give birth to such an ether core?"

Everyone was talking at once, but their words were full of questions and anger.

After all, they lost so many people for this core. If they return empty-handed, who knows how much loss it will bring to the empire.

Moreover, for thousands of years, it has never been heard that the ether core would be damaged after it was born. It only disappears naturally when its power is exhausted.

Everyone agreed that this was an excuse she made up in order to monopolize the core.

No one believed Xia Jiumeng's words, but instead looked at her warily.

"Nonsense, our Duke is not such a person. We are not surprised at all by the ether core." Chun Qing said angrily.

"Not surprising? You're so arrogant! If it really wasn't surprising, why did you sneak away first?"

Someone immediately objected.

"Moreover, it happened at the critical moment of the battle against the wandering body, causing many people to get into trouble." Someone remembered the chaos caused by Xia Jiumeng's departure and couldn't help but sneered.

"You guys are hilarious. If our Duke hadn't intervened, you wouldn't know how many people would have died. What are you talking about now?"

"If you had the guts, wouldn't you have asked for help then?"

Chunqing sneered and looked at them.

"you......"

"What, what I said is wrong?"

"Weren't you the one who begged our Duke to help kill the high-level wandering body back then?"

"You are such ungrateful people that you turn your back on me at this moment."

"If I had known earlier, our Duke should not have saved you. I would have let you be killed by the stray bodies." Chun Qing spat and walked towards Xia Jiumeng with Mo Yuanming.

These people are so disgusting that she feels like she is going to stink if she stands next to them.

The eldest prince's eyes flickered for a moment before he spoke.

"Everyone, our Empire absolutely has no intention of monopolizing this, but... to be honest, even if Duke Xia didn't leave first."

"I'm afraid you won't be able to grab the core either."

After he finished speaking, he glanced around and saw many people lowering their heads silently.

Indeed, even if Xia Jiumeng had not left early, they would not have been able to snatch the food from the tiger's mouth. After all, even if they were in their best condition now, they would not be able to snatch the food from the tiger's mouth if they could kill a level 70 wandering body in seconds.

Even if they came together, she could only watch helplessly if she wanted to snatch what they had.

Thinking of this, their excitement subsided a lot, but there were still many people who were dissatisfied.

After all, this matter is of great magnitude, and the ether core is not an ordinary core, so how can we give it up so easily?

Now that all countries have suffered such huge losses and are only happy for nothing, they are naturally unwilling to give up.

But they also saw Xia Jiumeng's strength and did not dare to offend her too much. But since such an incident had occurred, they naturally had to find a way to get an explanation.

Thinking of this, the leaders of various empires couldn't help but look at Shen Yuan and others.

"That being said, isn't Mosta going too far?"

"Besides, since no matter what, shouldn't you join us in defeating the enemy before joining the fight for the core?"

"Even if we are not my opponent, we will be convinced."

"Isn't it unreasonable for your country to act so quietly?"

After hearing these words, Xia Jiumeng sighed helplessly and looked at the two captains beside him, motioning them to explain. After all, their explanation would be more convincing than that of the person who "took advantage".

The captains of Mo Cheng and the Temple looked at each other, and finally the other party compromised and stepped forward.

The captain of the temple came out and pulled down the hood of his robe to reveal a clean and fair face. He looked handsome, gentle and very kind.

"Everyone, I am the Chief White Bishop of the Temple. I hope everyone can calm down and listen to me, okay?"

The noisy crowd fell silent for a moment.

Someone said, "You say."

No matter what, they still have to give face to the temple, and they also want to find out what is going on.

Logically speaking, the Temple and the Zongheng Team should not be so blatant in their favoritism, otherwise they would be hard to explain if they were severely punished.
