New Dust Realm, Northern Central Camp, an empty, dark hall.
In the center of the hall, there was a round table, and around the table, there were twelve chairs.
“Creak…”
The bronze door of the hall was opened. A white-haired, red-eyed girl walked in first and sat down on a chair with the “Aries” symbol on it.
This girl was Aries, Ashley.
It seemed that because there was no one else, Ashley slightly lowered her head, seemingly deep in thought.
Soon after, Scorpio Rub and Taurus Fafran entered through the door and sat down in their respective positions.
“Hey, Ashley, you sure came early!” Rub greeted with a smile after sitting down.
“Mm.” Ashley nodded, not intending to say more.
However, Rub seemed very eager to continue the conversation with Ashley.
“Speaking of which, your prediction this time was really accurate. Something unexpected indeed happened at Felix’s place!”
Rub gave Ashley a thumbs up in admiration, then sighed and shook his head regretfully.
“What a pity, what a pity, your prediction was off by just a bit. You didn’t send one more person to Felix’s place, nor did you directly send me and Beck over.
Otherwise, Felix, Fantai Xi, and even Beck, who went to support, might not have all perished in the battle a few days ago.”
Fafran, beside them, coldly remarked, “Rub, are you blaming Ashley?”
Rub quickly waved his hand. “No, no, I’m not blaming anyone. I just feel it’s a lot quieter here now.
If Fantai Xi hadn’t been sent to Felix’s place by her, there’d still be one more person here. What a pity…”
Ashley still remained silent, showing no intention of explaining to Rub.
Fafran frowned, seemingly about to say something more.
Just then, a barrier emerged under the round table.
Following that, the constellation patterns on the empty chairs lit up one by one, beams of starlight condensed into human-shaped apparitions at each position.
A young man with ordinary black hair, a tall and handsome blond man, a beautiful noble girl with black and white hair…
A total of five figures materialized one after another. They were the rest of the star envoys of the Twelve Palaces who had yet to enter the New Dust Realm.
“There are significantly fewer people at this star sign meeting.” Sagittarius Ather spoke first.
Rub smiled. “Of course, considering three people just died, it’s really unfortunate.”
The noble girl with black and white hair looked at Rub, then scanned Fafran and Ashley.
“Even if Blake was killed first, you still had six people in this small world, and under such circumstances, you still managed to lose three more?”
The noble girl spoke coldly, and the chair behind her had a “Gemini” symbol. She was Gemini Luna.
Rub shook his head. “The Sky Patrol Star Lord mobilized all forces, there was nothing I could do. Besides, this time’s personnel deployment was made by Ashley.”
All the star envoys looked towards Aries Ashley simultaneously.
Ather looked at Ashley and said slowly, “Lord Constantin is indeed very displeased and asked me to inquire.
Ashley, your arrangements led to this outcome. Do you have anything to say?”
Ashley was silent for a while and then said, “When predicting others, I can only foresee that they might encounter some unexpected events. The danger level of specific events is something I can’t predict.
At that time, in the New Dust Realm, besides me, there were five star envoys.
The southern front and the strongholds on the east and west sides couldn’t be left empty, so Beck and Rub stayed put.
As for Fafran, I originally planned for Fafran and Fantai Xi to assist Felix together.
But Fantai Xi insisted that he was enough, so in the end, Fafran stayed at the main stronghold with me.
Later, Felix and Fantai Xi fell into an ambush and were outnumbered. This led to all three of them being killed by the enemy.”
Fafran nodded. “That’s right. It was indeed Fantai Xi who refused my help.”
The crowd didn’t say much. Although Ashley had her reasons, the result was still that three people died.
At this moment, a green-eyed young man sitting at the Cancer position suddenly spoke with a smile. “Instead of finding fault with Aries, why not talk about their problems?”
As soon as he said this, the crowd fell slightly silent.
All the star envoys looked up at this green-eyed youth with a bit of curiosity and scrutiny. Bailie’s eyes even flashed with some surprise.
Lawrence asked the green-eyed youth, “I was puzzled from the start. Who are you? Where is Cancer Augla?”
Ather laughed. “I forgot to mention, this is the new Cancer.”
The green-eyed youth smiled. “Greetings, everyone. I’m the new Cancer, Qiong Ying.”
If Su Yuan were here, he might quickly recognize this person.
Because this person was one of the prisoners in a prison cart during the escort mission to join the department.
Now, he had become a star envoy of the Twelve Palaces?
“The new Cancer?” The crowd was greatly surprised, “Meaning he defeated Augla?”
