“Wise Fox, you truly live up to your name. However, I would prefer if you called me Xiao Yefeng instead of Bee. I am no longer a member of the Zodiac! I have no other intentions in stopping you; I just want to know how my teammates are doing these days. I hope that doesn't violate any Zodiac rules!” Xiao Yefeng said.
In truth, it wasn't that Xiao Yefeng didn't want to ask other questions, but being from the Zodiac, he naturally understood some of its rules. Therefore, he didn't want to put Wise Fox in a difficult position and simply inquired about his teammates' current situation.
At that moment, Wise Fox waved a hand. Although the others were afraid of potential danger from Wise Fox, they still left under Crippled Monkey's lead. The people from Huaxia had already taken over Poison Shark Island and would soon search the entire island. The five of them needed to leave quickly; since Xiao Yefeng had questions, it was best for the others to prepare their escape tools promptly, or else leaving would become difficult.
The key point was that Crippled Monkey trusted Xiao Yefeng's character. Since there had been no conflict upon their first meeting, Xiao Yefeng wouldn't harm anyone. Crippled Monkey also believed in Wise Fox's abilities and knew that even if a fight broke out, could they really take on five opponents? At most, their group would leave behind two corpses, and Xiao Yefeng wouldn't escape unscathed either.
Moreover, his team did not harbor the same hatred towards Xiao Yefeng as the Evil Wolf Squad did. This time, his team hadn't killed any Huaxia soldiers, so Xiao Yefeng had no reason to engage in a fierce battle with them.
As Crippled Monkey led the three others away to gather supplies, Xiao Yefeng approached Wise Fox. Together, they walked to a cliff that dropped over ten meters down to the sea. At this moment, Wise Fox said, “Instructor—no! Xiao Yefeng! After I finish speaking, I hope you can remain calm!”
Looking at Wise Fox's face, Xiao Yefeng had to admit that she was the most graceful among the four foxes besides Demon Fox. At twenty years old, she possessed the wisdom of a mature woman combined with a girl's innocence. Hearing Wise Fox's words made Xiao Yefeng's heart skip a beat; a sense of unease crept into his mind.
Xiao Yefeng nodded and said, “For the sake of our past friendship, I hope you can tell me the unembellished truth!”
“Of course. Since Liu Xuanhuang's death and your decision to withdraw from your Tiger Shark Team, Zhebie, Na, and Sigaeo have been stuck in a low phase for quite some time. They have been constantly filling new team members who have sacrificed for various reasons. Of course, these three work together seamlessly and are quite safe; however, with a change in leadership within the Zodiac, everything has changed!” Wise Fox sighed.
“Leadership has changed? Has that mysterious Twelve-Man Team been taken down?” Xiao Yefeng asked in confusion. Anyone familiar with the Zodiac knew that its core was the Twelve-Man Team; it was built around them and they were essentially the leaders of the Zodiac.
Wise Fox shook her head and replied, “To be honest with you, we also thought that the Twelve Zodiac Masters were in charge of the Zodiac. However, aside from those within the organization, no one knows that the true master of the Zodiac is the Divine Descent Society!”
“What? The Divine Descent Society?” Xiao Yefeng exclaimed in surprise.
At that moment, Wise Fox nodded and said, "That's right, the Divine Descent Society, to be precise, the werewolf faction within the Divine Descent Society!"
With confusion and disbelief, Xiao Yefeng and Wise Fox talked for over ten minutes. During this time, Xiao Yefeng learned a shocking truth: the origin of the Gene Warrior was the result of research conducted by the werewolf faction within the Divine Descent Society to expand their influence.
It turned out that in the struggle among dark forces in the West, the werewolf faction was outnumbered by the Vampire Clan, which had the ability to turn ordinary people into vampires due to their reproductive capabilities. In response, the werewolves developed an initial batch of Gene Serum that could transform ordinary people into werewolves. This serum was initially referred to as Wolf's Kiss!
Subsequently, leaked information allowed various powerful factions around the world to obtain a portion of the serum's synthesis formula, leading to the emergence of Gene Warriors. Recently, there had been internal strife within the Divine Descent Society; it was rumored that after strengthening their power, the werewolves had wiped out the vampire faction. However, the werewolves vehemently denied this, and ultimately, the remaining vampire faction exposed all of the werewolves' activities.
The mastermind behind the Constellation Mercenaries finally came to light. As a result, werewolves and vampires found themselves in conflict once again. This time, the vampires had suffered significant losses; the Ferrad Family had lost its last royal member. Now, Western vampires had lost their final noble with pure bloodlines. The remaining vampires could only hide in corners and gather their members, but without the call of royal blood, they could not unite.
The key point was that Constellation had allied with the werewolves and accepted the surrender of Xius and Jie. Although Wise Fox did not make it clear, Xiao Yefeng understood that Jie now possessed most of the power of Extraordinary Persons in the world. Even modern technological products like Gene Serum had fallen into Jie's hands. It seemed that Qing's chances were getting slimmer; however, Xiao Yefeng was not worried about this issue at that moment.
Watching Wise Fox and others leave on their submarine, Xiao Yefeng sat on a rock and kept recalling Wise Fox's words. It seemed his teammates had been selected for a more powerful Gene Serum experiment. According to Wise Fox, she hadn't seen any members of Tiger Shark Team for about six months. There were many rumors circulating about them—some said they had died and been collectively cremated, while others claimed they had gained extraordinary powers and were carrying out missions.
Despite the confusion, one thing was certain: members of Tiger Shark Team must be going through tough times. It seemed that because of him, his teammates had been chosen for experimentation. Perhaps it was due to his injury of Demon Fox during the Mei Family incident that added a failure record for their team; was he responsible for putting everyone in danger?
As he gazed in the direction where Wise Fox and others had departed, Xiao Yefeng pondered Wise Fox's last words. When he asked about where Tiger Shark members had recently appeared, Wise Fox gave him a vague answer—Africa? Xiao Yefeng calculated based on Wise Fox's hints but felt lost; should he go rescue his teammates?
But what would happen after rescuing them? Wise Fox had explained why these individuals served Constellation despite having gained immense power: without a stable monthly injection of gene serum, would his teammates be able to survive? Would saving them only put them in further danger? After some thought, Xiao Yefeng made a decision; it seemed necessary to have a chat with President. Why hadn’t President discussed such matters with him? With Divine Descent Society breaking apart and Vampire Clan leaderless, Xiao Yefeng felt Jiang Xing couldn't possibly be unaware!
The black night gradually gave way to dawn as Xiao Yefeng returned to the warship. A row of specially designed handcuffs held all captured pirates on deck. At that moment, Liu Yiyi and Liu Qing were anxiously waiting for Xiao Yefeng. Upon seeing him return safely, Liu Yiyi joyfully linked her arm with his while Liu Qing nodded approvingly at this scene.
Thus concluded the hostage situation at Poison Shark Island successfully. This battle marked a significant moment for Chinese Military Spirit, completely eradicating the Venomous Shark pirate group that had occupied Dead Sea Area. However, it also highlighted the emergence of Gene Warriors. This battle showcased Gene Warriors' strength internationally while indicating future trends. The reason for China's victory was primarily due to excellent intelligence; Chinese Military Spirit had thoroughly studied all aspects of Venomous Shark's capabilities.
Under such perfect intelligence, it would be strange not to succeed. Of course, the initial cooperation between Xiao Yefeng, Liu Yiyi, and the insider Chen Si in taking the hostages was crucial. If they had the hostages in hand, the Chinese Military Spirit would be unable to launch a strong attack, as the potential for severe casualties would hold them back.
This battle also laid the foundation for a shift in China's attitude. From this point on, Gene Warriors began to emerge internationally like mushrooms after rain. The struggle between Qing and Jie had evolved into a contest between two factions, almost hidden from the world of ordinary people. Both sides were engaged in a relentless search for three treasures to repair the Spirit Barrier and for fragments of a shattered map.
The Mechanism Network, Spirit Binding Silver Nail, Eight Directions Seal, and the missing Heart of Civilization were four key items that could restore the Spirit Barrier. Each had once appeared within the sensing range of the Divination Compass and Divine King's Scepter. However, like fleeting shadows, Qing and Jie failed to seize them. As a result, there was still no news about these four spiritual artifacts.
On the other hand, one of the four maps belonging to Charlie the Holy Knight had surfaced. At that time, Qing and Jie’s forces engaged in their first real struggle over it. Due to Jie’s alliance with Xius from the Western Gods, the original agreements of the Eastern realm became as powerless as a blank sheet of paper. Ironically, the person holding the map inherited from Charlie the Holy Knight was an ordinary individual.
Initially, both sides offered high prices for this map. After Qing presented a written offer, the heir decided to sell it to him. However, just before the transaction could take place, Xius's people ambushed Qing's envoy in the wilderness, resulting in the tragic death of Charlie the Holy Knight's heir and their family. Although there was no direct evidence linking them to this act, during subsequent skirmishes, fragments of the map ended up in Xius's hands.
This incident finally ignited a conflict between Qing and Jie’s factions. Both sides were stained with each other's blood, and at some point, these siblings who once shared a bond of kinship finally fell apart.
After their split, Xiao Yefeng met with Qing once. However, he did not offer any consolation; he simply stated: "From the moment you chose two different paths at the very beginning, a rift in your relationship had already formed; you just didn't want to admit it."
