When Bloody Mary saw the black figure, it finally heaved a sigh of relief .
At the same time, the woman in the red raincoat heaved a sigh .
Astounded, Bloody Mary looked at the woman .
It was sure it didn't mishear it . It relied on its demonic traits and could clearly determine the woman in pursuit wasn't faked, she truly heaved a sigh of relief .
This abnormal reaction raised the alarm in Bloody Mary's heart .
However, before it could react adequately, something happened .
Fwaa!
Loud water gurgling noises came from the woman .
A drop of water appeared out of thin air in front of the woman after the noise .
It wasn't a transparent, clean water droplet though, but yellowish, muddy water .
The gurgling water noise became more explicit and grew into a tide .
The little droplet of water was producing big tides and waves like the sea and rivers . In the relentless wave crashing noise, a never before felt dead stillness followed .
Suddenly, the atmosphere felt like a storm in the sea, the wind empowered the waves, and the waves became high along with the mighty wind .
Wuu!
The secluded street block vanished from sight, the scene was replaced by a muddy yellowish tidal wave instead .
The wave further gathered and rose before it crashed down fiercely .
The formless gale was blasting Kieran's hair and fluttering his feathered mantle . His eyes were cold as he looked at the tidal wave . Devil Flame in his hand rapidly flashed, though .
He sensed something different about this tidal wave . Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
The tidal wave felt like it was going to exterminate souls and wash away everything, the anxiety from it was enough to drive one insane . However, it was not enough to affect him .
While Kieran was facing the unknown tidal wave heads on, Bloody Mary retreated without a second thought .
It sensed danger, a fatal threat .
Without further contact with the water, it knew once any drop of the wave touched it, it would die and will not come back anymore .
A powerful foe! The water was a bane to Bloody Mary!
Bloody Mary sized up the woman with heavy gaze, but out of its expectation, the tidal wave vanished . It didn't just disappear without a sign, even that droplet of water landed on the woman's body .
Then…
The woman was petrified! She was turning into stone exceptionally fast!
What happened? Is she crazy enough to hit herself?
Bloody Mary was stunned . Kieran also frowned .
However, when the petrification process was over, the woman turned into a stone statue with a blurry face . Kieran slightly eased up his furrowed brows .
Any players that died in the big city would disintegrate into light particles .
The red woman didn't turn into light . Instead, she became a stone statue .
She didn't die!
Plus the tidal wave just now, rather than saying the tide was an attack, it might be just a showcase of her strength…
Kieran walked over to the statue after the thought flashed in his heart .
He still needed to verify something .
"What is going on?"
Bloody Mary asked when it felt its contractor's change of expression .
"Nothing," Kieran replied while meticulously checked the statue . He then turned to Bloody Mary and said, "Keep this statue together with Rorl . "
After killing a plethora of players in the big city, sparing one or two extra rooms and turning them into temporary prisons was nothing hard for Kieran .
"You are the boss, you say so . "
Bloody Mary knew Kieran noticed something, but since he didn't want to talk about it, Bloody Mary couldn't do anything .
It lifted the statue and Rorl before swiftly disappearing .
After seeing Bloody Mary off, Kieran curled his lips into a grin, a ridiculing smile .
He discovered a small tattoo on the statue's arm during his check just now, and it was also the thing that he was looking for—
Server III!
. . .
"You are saying an internal conflict happened in the Sin-server?" Lawless' eyes widened as he was filled with astonishment .
"Internal conflict? No, not that severe yet . Though, based on the obvious identity and showcasing the attack before me, the attack might be the strongest attack of the mastermind that she knew of . So, she is warning me, plus the statue isn't dying just yet, I am guessing some part of the Sin-server doesn't want to stay on the ship anymore . "
"As for why?"
"Maybe it's the conflicting ideals from a long time ago . Maybe the woman and her other friends couldn't see hope in the organization, but a higher chance is…"
"Broker!
Lawless finished Kieran's sentence before he could .
Both of them theorized Broker was somehow related to Sin-server, and now based on the weird encounter, it strengthened their theory .
"Maybe this is all that bastard's plan . "
"You know, he is always skilled in creating conflicting and confusing fake scenes . "
"But, what does that bastard really want?" Lawless asked in a heavy tone .
"I don't know," Kieran shook his head .
Despite engaging Broker more than once, Kieran still couldn't grasp what Broker was actually after until now .
The Witch's Legacy?
Possibly, but as the Guardians showed themselves, Kieran realized Broker wasn't that eager to get his hands on the treasure .
If he was really anxious and eager, given his influence and forces, he should have noticed the Guardian's presence a long time ago . But now, it was quite the opposite, with every step he took, and every move he made seemed to allow the Guardians to progress further .
And the player killers!
That encounter was the most ingrained in Kieran's mind .
Broker betrayed Kieran and his friends without a single thought .
Although Kieran escaped from the jaws of danger, Broker also his intentions exposed . Thus the player killers were on to him as well .
But…
What was the final outcome of that particular encounter?
Almost nothing was achieved!
Even the leader of the killer players, Extremus, died in [Blade of the Daybreaker]!
It seemed abnormal! It completely contrasted with Broker's usual style!
Then, Broker went into hiding after he suffered a loss in [Blade of the Daybreaker], and everything seemed so reasonable .
What if this kind of reasonable progression was all part of Broker's arrangements?
Kieran squinted his eyes when he pondered upon the possibility .
Kieran was habitually vigilant and careful, he could be considered as a dubious person .
While facing a theory which had only certain chances of occurring, he would not just neglect it but would calculate along with his plan as if the theory was a reality .
Was it tiresome? Very .
But compared to his puny little life, what was being a bit tired?
Lawless naturally shut up when he saw his friend go into deep thought . He was smoking his cigar and spitting out smoke until Wu walked in, Lawless gave a vigilant gaze .
Those who were allowed to enter the little living room were only a few in Harvest Inn .
Most of them were allies, but Wu was different .
Every time Lawless saw Wu, he somehow felt grumpy; when Wu predicted his friend's ominous outcome or death, Lawless hated Wu even more .
His gaze at Wu was absent of goodwill .
Wu didn't care though, just like she didn't care how pitiful and useless Lawless once was when he knelt before her, crying like a baby for the first time .
Now? She wouldn't care either, not at a pitiful soul whose memories were blurred out .
She walked to Kieran and placed two things in front of him .
One was a bracelet knitted with straws .
The other one was… [Dungeon Cooldown Reset Card] .
