In reality, this is nothing more than self-deception and escapism.
To raise a sword against the researchers of the Third Research Institute would mean standing on the opposite side of the aristocratic interests and challenging the entire vast and complex aristocratic system—a betrayal of the entire aristocratic system.
But for Shuangye, support in the name of her master was her last resort.
"I only need to be a tool in my master's hands. A tool has no self-awareness and will never betray anyone!"
Shuangye dragged the demon sword in her right hand and slowly walked towards the group in the laboratory.
Master Wen was enraged! Whether it was Luo Tian's casual remark about killing everyone or Shuang Yu's indifferent gaze, both had deeply stung this Saint-level Grand Mage.
As a retainer of the Imperial Star Marquis family, one of the seven great marquises, he enjoys the flattery and respect of everyone wherever he goes, and even demigod powerhouses from various associations treat him with courtesy.
He hadn't experienced this feeling of being ignored in a long time.
"good very good!"
Master Wen laughed in fury. Although the curse of the withering soul was still eroding his body, the degree of the soul curse was not too serious because Luo Tian deliberately held back. As a saintly mage, he was confident that he could still exert his powerful strength.
The maid Shuangye in front of him was only at the third level of the Transcendent Realm; he could easily kill her with just one spell.
A wicked smile appeared on his lips as he wove spell circuits in his hands, and a sliver of withered yellow light fell upon the beautiful maid before him.
"The Art of Aging!"
This is the most feared spell among all female superhumans; the irreversible loss of life is enough to turn any beautiful young girl into a frail old woman.
In the instant the withered yellow light shone, Master Wen seemed to be able to foresee the look of terror and regret on Frosty Night's face as she transformed into an old woman.
However, in the next moment, the maid moved with unforgettable elegance, easily dodging the aging spell. As she moved, the momentum propelled her two greatswords through the air, slashing directly at the nearest researcher.
A look of astonishment froze on his face. Blood gushed from the headless corpse beneath the flung head. The extraordinary amulet that the researcher carried, capable of activating a magical shield in times of crisis, was already unusable due to the effects of decay.
The researcher's body fell to the ground amidst everyone's shocked gazes, its blood staining the ground red.
"You are courting death!"
Master Wen's magic book flipped rapidly, and a colorful magic circle suddenly rose up. A gale swept up the flames and engulfed most of the core control room.
However, Shuangye's face remained indifferent, her white-stockinged legs, clad in black high heels, traced mysterious trajectories with each step, her gentle movements always managing to evade the violent magic at crucial moments.
With each step, the heavy two-handed magic sword in his hand spun with inertia, slashing at the enemy beside him, every movement filled with a sense of harmony and elegance.
Her killings were like a spectacular dance.
Those researchers and elite squad members affected by the Withering were almost powerless against the Demon Sword. As their lives faded, the curse on their souls continued to torment their sinful spirits like a persistent affliction.
The elegant carnage filled everyone's eyes, and the chilling aura emanating from the silent wails of the dead instilled fear in everyone.
They tried to dodge, but the magic that filled most of the core control room left them no room to escape, and they could only let Frostnight harvest them one by one.
Luo Tian was already sitting on the sofa in the corner of the core control room, enjoying Shuang Ye's wonderful performance.
He could sense that Aatrox was resistant to Frostnight and had not lent her the power of the Darkin. Right now, Frostnight was killing enemies entirely with her own strength at the third level of the Transcendent Realm.
Although Luo Tian's pre-released Withering spell dispelled most people's ability to resist, the enclosed environment of the controlled room and the presence of friendly forces prevented Master Wen from using large-scale magic.
But Shuangye's performance still amazed Luo Tian.
In a short time, less than half of the dozen or so researchers remained, and the elite team protecting the core control room was completely wiped out.
The fear of death and the curse of withering souls tormented their minds and bodies, and amidst tears streaming down their faces, the researchers let out desperate screams.
"It was her! She was the princess's personal head maid, and she led the massacre of all the collateral relatives of the Yin clan with similar bloodlines!"
"She's an executioner, a demon!"
"I was the chief designer of the simulation diagram, and I personally led this experiment. My invention can influence the entire empire's格局 (geju, a concept encompassing overall structure and overall situation). You cannot kill me!"
"The extraordinary system in the realm of swordsmanship that leads directly to the realm of gods and humans in the present world is more than half completed. All that is needed is further testing and cooperation to complete the deduction of the extraordinary system!"
All you need to do is select a plane and destroy it to the brink of destruction, then deploy the extraordinary system, and you will be able to obtain a divine position in less than a hundred years.
"I'm the one leading the deduction of the extraordinary system; I still have value!"
......
Voices of cursing, pleading, and threats echoed in the core control room.
The researchers who are able to enter this control room are no ordinary people. To those nobles, their value is definitely no less than that of a saint or even a demigod.
In the past, Shuangye would have done everything in her power to protect the safety of these researchers.
But now, with her light steps and flowing skirt, Shuangye gracefully wields her magic sword, and one life after another withers away under its blade.
Master Wen's rebukes, the sinners' pleas, and the wails of the dead became the backdrop for this magnificent dance.
Within the demonic sword, Aatrox, observing everything before him, let out a hoarse sigh.
"At this moment, I am moved by the elegance before me!"
Chapter 100: Even the Twilight Celestials have championship skins!
Amidst this elegant carnage, Master Wen felt like a mere clown, a backdrop to the scene.
No matter what single-target or area-of-effect magic he used, Frost Night could easily dodge it with his magic sword and then cut off a person's head.
Even spells that rely on magical marks to lock onto enemies can be dodged by Frostnight while erasing the magical marks.
As a grand mage at the Saint Realm, he was utterly enraged to be tricked by a mere girl at the third realm.
"The Yu Steps, developed by the royal family from the immortal civilization, are indeed profound, but if you really think you can defeat me with this ability, then you're in for a disappointment!"
Once the words were spoken, Master Wen no longer had any reservations, and a huge magic circle instantly formed beneath his feet.
Xu Can, standing beside him, stared wide-eyed, trying to stop Master Wen, but the aged voice had already escaped his lips.
"Hellfire!"
A crimson flame, as red as blood, suddenly rose from the ground, and the enormous flames, like fiery trees, engulfed every corner of the core control room.
The remaining researchers were instantly turned into desiccated corpses by the terrifying flames, while the slender and elegant figure was also directly engulfed by the horrific flames.
Master Wen burst into laughter, his eyes filled with smugness.
Beside him, Xu Can, barely relying on the power of the fourth realm to resist the terrifying flames, roared angrily at Master Wen:
“These are the most elite researchers in the entire institute. Even if you were to kill them, you would be held accountable by the powerful and influential people!”
Master Wen snorted coldly, his voice icy:
"I can kill her without using large-scale magic? For those researchers, it's just a matter of dying sooner or later."
Don't think you can shirk responsibility with such an excuse. It was your suggestion to bring all the senior researchers into the core control room; you should be held accountable for this!
"The battle isn't even over yet and they're already discussing this? Humans really are all like this, with their ugly faces!"
A hoarse chuckle echoed in the core control room, and the next moment a scarlet sword aura suddenly slashed out from the flames, forcefully cleaving the sea of fire in front of them.
Wearing a maid's dress, Frost Night emerged from the sea of fire with an indifferent gaze. The core of the demonic sword in her hand began to beat gently like a heart, and an aura of ominousness and destruction lingered around it.
Master Wen's face instantly turned extremely ugly. The magic book in front of him flipped through the pages again, and a whirlwind swept up the flames, transforming into a huge fire dragon that devoured Frost Night.
Frosty Night once again swung the demonic sword in her hand. The greatsword followed its momentum and traced an elegant trajectory in the air. The surging blood-red sword energy left two deep sword marks in the void, easily severing the terrifying fire dragon.
The flames dissipated, obscuring Master Wen's entire vision, which caused him to instinctively raise a magical shield.
The next moment, the demonic sword slashed down, the huge sword mark tearing through the magical shield and almost splitting him in two.
"That's right, that's exactly it!"
Aatrox's tyrannical voice echoed in the core control room. Frostnight remained unmoved and slashed down with the demonic sword once more!
Within the crimson blade, Shuangye seemed to see the reflection of Master Wen's death.
In that instant, the space in the core control room suddenly distorted, and the close distance seemed to be infinitely expanded.
Beneath the demonic sword, overlapping spaces completely blocked this life-or-death strike.
A handsome young man dressed in a magnificent silver robe appeared in the core control room at some point.
Subsequently, one after another, powerful extraordinary individuals followed closely behind, crossing space to arrive at the devastated battlefield before them.
"Two demigods, seven saints, and..."
Luo Tian, sitting on the sofa in the corner of the private room, narrowed his eyes and quietly watched the young man in the silver robe.
Luo Tian could sense a familiar feeling in this young man.
He was somewhat like the vampire prince who died at his hands, but there were subtle differences.
"This is the current god-man of the mortal world? The strongest mortal being who has ignited the divine fire and is only one step away from ascending to godhood?"
"It seems... kind of interesting!"
A slight smile appeared on Luo Tian's lips.
It can only be said that the Great Yin Empire truly has a profound foundation, as its attack on a mere research institute has attracted figures of god-like status in the mortal world.
This was all for the sake of Luo Tian buying time, letting Shuang Ye deal with these guys.
After all, it's not easy to make a move, and to only take away a group of scum researchers and a saintly mage feels like a huge loss.
"I just wonder if I can attract a true god with a weak divine power, so that I can truly make an example of someone?"
A hint of anticipation appeared in Luo Tian's eyes.
As many powerful supporters arrived, whispers echoed within the private room.
"So many dead and injured! This is the capital city!"
"Nearly a fifth of the Empire's most elite researchers have been lost here, damn it!"
Why is there no powerful expert stationed at the Third Research Institute?
"I heard that the North Wind family had taken action beforehand, and the demigod stationed at the Third Research Institute left a few days early."
......
Amidst the murmurs, the young man in the silver robe at the head of the group looked at Shuangye, his silver eyes filled with a condescending gaze.
"Frosty Night Head Maid? No, you're no longer the head maid of the palace."
"By trespassing on the Third Imperial Research Institute and killing numerous Imperial researchers, I have reason to suspect that you harbored resentment after being exiled and were waiting for an opportunity to take revenge on the Empire."
As the Minister of the Imperial Security Department, I will arrest you. The Noble Council will discuss your fate!
"As for the matter of compensation, it should be decided by Her Highness the Royal Princess!"
