Under the cover of night in the north wing of Whisper Square, a potential conflict is brewing.

Centered on the barrier of the ever-changing mill family, a tense and dangerous stalemate was formed.

The four-headed white dragons, their huge bodies look particularly powerful in the night, from their open mouths, the condensed ice breath is faintly visible, which is the signature ability of the white dragon clan, once released, it will cause devastating heavy damage to enemies in a straight line, and attach the effect of freezing slowdown, so that the opponent cannot be played.

Meanwhile, the Shadow Force's Dark Elves stand silently in the shadows, no longer wielding traditional arrows or swords, but lethal modified gunpowder weapons, ready to strike a fatal blow at a critical moment.

Their ghostly presence makes it elusive for opponents to follow, adding to the unpredictable danger.

And the ghost wizards in gray robes, they stood silently aside, their robes gently swaying in the night wind. The very existence of these ghost wizards is a threat, and their every move may be a harbinger of the terrifying killing moves that are about to be unleashed, and their power from the abyss is too much to be underestimated.

In a tense atmosphere, the dark elf of the Shadow Blender family said in a voice that was both calm and unquestionable, through the barrier to Serena, the advisor of the Thousand-Changing Workshop family:

"Serena, let us go in and unpack and inspect it. [The wedge] shows that the volume of your cargo today exceeds the new rules of the code."

"You have joined forces to spy on us." When the family advisor Serena heard Erin's words, her face instantly sank, and a cold aura emanated from her.

"Yes, we are watching over you, not just the three of us, but the other ruling families of the entire Whisper Square, including the Skaven clan and the werewolves in the underground passages of the square." The dark elf Irene made no secret of the smell of gunpowder between her words.

This is a warning and a provocation.

The undisguised malice of the three major families made the situation even more tense in what was already like a powder keg.

The family advisor's eyes were as cold as a glacier, and his gaze swept over Erin and the other two representatives, and then he slowly spoke:

"On behalf of the Ever-Changing Mill family, I formally reject your request for inspection. We have not violated any of the new rules of the Whisper Square, and you do not have any authority to forcibly inspect our cargo. Once again, I reiterate my hope that we can resolve our differences in a peaceful manner."

As she spoke, she had already made a gesture to the other family members to prepare for war.

In the Whisper Square, a place full of interests and power struggles, any bit of weakness can become a lever for ruthless targeting and exploitation by opponents. Serena knew that if she gave in today, the Workshop family would become prey in the eyes of the other families, constantly being harassed and challenged. This is something she absolutely cannot tolerate.

More importantly, today's cargo contains materials and personnel specially designated by the Authority's Honorable Majesty, which is a matter of trust and cooperation between the Workshop family and the Authority.

This is not only a matter of business, but also a matter of family honor and future destiny.

In this case, even at the risk of an immediate war with other families, Serena would never easily open the door barrier and allow the members of this *** to enter at will.

Under this cold night sky, the tension reached a boiling point.

"yes."

The dark elf's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he had no more words than actions in the face of the Thousands of Transformations Workshop family advisors who were unwilling to cooperate.

At her feet, shadows began to wriggle vividly, as if as a harbinger of an impending eruption. Seeing this, the surrounding White Dragon Army and Ghost Wizards immediately entered a battle state, and the smell of an imminent war filled the air.

"Roar—"

The four white dragons that had endured for a long time finally released their hidden power.

They spread their massive wings and spewed out a cold, icy breath from the magical barrier in front of them.

Boom –

This powerful spit

The breath slammed into the barrier, producing a deafening roar, and layers of ripples appeared at the barrier's attack, as if it was tissue paper about to be torn.

War is on the verge of breaking out!

Those ghost wizards began to transform into terrifying [Spiritual Whips], attacking the members of the Thousand-Changing Workshop family within the barrier. These morphers attack in a variety of forms, such as bears, goshawks, and tigers......

In the face of the imminent powerful offensive, the family advisor Serena did not hesitate to unleash her strongest transformation - turning into a terrifying red giant spider four meters in size. Every movement of the giant spider is imbued with power and threat, and its venom arrows shoot outward at a wide angle of 180 degrees, trying to block those relentless attacks.

In just a moment, it was a group of demons dancing.

The moment the battle broke out, the northern wing of the Whisper Square turned into a chaotic battlefield.

"Roar—"

Pull!!!

The white dragons unleashed their wild power, massive claws and fangs leaving marks on the magical barrier, each tear attempting to tear the protective layer apart.

Puff~

Puff~

Although the barrier was strong, small gaps appeared from time to time under the impact of the white dragon's icy breath.

These gaps, while quickly healed, provided a breakthrough for other family ground forces waiting for their chances.

At the moment when these troops broke through the magical barrier, the Ever-Changing Workshop family showed their ferocious counterattack.

All kinds of strange shape-shifting creatures and invaders clash fiercely, and the scene is extremely chaotic.

The ghost wizards in the spirit state were particularly ruthless, their spiritual attacks invisibly penetrating the physical defenses, and the tentacle-like attacks constantly whipped the enemy.

Under these powerful spiritual attacks, the forms of many shapeshifters began to distort, and the shapeshifts became unstable and miserable.

However, the Ever-Changing Workshop family, which is the home turf, is not unprepared, and as the battle progresses, more and more shapeshifters join the battle with defensive charms specifically aimed at spirits, launching fierce attacks on those ghost wizards. These special spells make the advantage of the ghost wizards less obvious, and the battle becomes more intense.

The two sides fought to the death in this once peaceful place.

In the middle of the night, the north wing of the Whisper Square has become a dark abyss of the battlefield, and the shadow troops hidden in the darkness roam the gaps of the battle like ghosts.

Bumper Bumper –

Bumper Bumper –

These dark elves, clad in shadows, appear like messengers of death, armed with specially crafted powder guns, aiming at the weaknesses of the shapeshifter's massive body, each shot with decisive and lethal intent.

Then, they stabbed the wounds inflicted with their venomized daggers, ensuring that the enemy was breathing in pain. In their actions, there is not a trace of superfluous action, and every blow is cold and effective.

And the family advisor Serena has transformed into a giant red spider, and her body has become the focus of the Dark Elf Shadow Guard's attacks.

The dense gunpowder gun fire left black bullet holes in her body, as if they were scars from war. Serena resisted many times in her attacks, but her counterattacks were just as ferocious. Wielding a spider-shaped spear as large as a knight's spear, she uses her agility and great strength to impale several dark elves in one fell swoop, erasing them from this world.

The intensity of the battle reached its peak at this moment.

The confrontation between the two sides is like a raging storm, ruthlessly destroying everything.

Rumble!!!

Outside the barrier, the white dragons roared like thunder, their massive bodies writhing in front of the magic barrier, trying to tear through the thin film of magic.

At the same time, the thaumaturgical device on the portal of the workshop family was activated, and the light flickered, and various energy beams and thaumaturgical arrows poured down towards the white dragon like a torrential rain, the scene was spectacular and thrilling.

The battlefield within the barrier is even more chaotic, and the battle between the members of the Thousands of Industries Family, the Shadow Guards, and the Ghost Wizards is becoming more and more intense.

The air was filled with thaumaturgic glow and sparks of battle, around every corner

staged a life-and-death struggle.

In the midst of this scuffle, the duel between Serena, the family advisor who turned into the Red Spider, and Erin, the dark elf, is particularly eye-catching.

Using the agility of the spider's body, the family advisor Serena quickly attacked the dark elf Irene, her massive legs swinging like the scythe of death, trying to cut Erin through herin.

However, the Dark Elves are athletic and skillfully use their stealth abilities to dodge attacks, and with a backhand arrow, they shoot precisely at Serena's vital point.

Feeling the pressure, the family advisor began to release the venom webs characteristic of the Red Giant Spider in an attempt to trap Erin.

Once again, the Dark Elves easily cracked with their transcendent Dark Elf magic, dodging in an almost dance-like motion while striking back quickly, her twin blades like lightning and carrying deadly shadow power straight at Serena.

Bump –

Serena endured the pain, and then launched a final onslaught in the form of a giant spider, her entire body like a moving fortress, and the attack was fierce.

Erin, on the other hand, demonstrates the ultimate skill of the Dark Elf Shadow Warrior, whose figure splits into several on the battlefield, making it difficult for Serena to distinguish between the real and the fake.

In this moment, Erin found an opportunity, and a deadly shadow force slashed at Serena.

Bump –

Just as the dark elf Irene was about to successfully attack the family advisor Serena, a powerful shadow suddenly descended from the sky.

With a deafening roar, a huge owl descended on the battlefield.

The appearance of this owl bear is extremely spectacular, reaching an astonishing height of five meters, it blends the head and front paws of an owl with the body and hindquarters of a bear, the brown or black hair is mixed with white or gray spots or stripes, and the sharp eyes of the owl shimmer with cold light, giving people a sense of oppression that cannot be seen directly.

Without hesitation, the owl slammed Erin's attack into the air with one claw, slamming it against a wall.

Erin spat blood from her mouth, her body sunk deep into the wall, and she was embarrassed.

Then, she struggled to crawl out of the wall, her eyes full of disbelief and anger, staring at the sudden owl in disbelief, and spat out a sentence in disbelief:

"The new Talker of the Workshop Family...... Mira Wanxiang."

As the tension on the battlefield gradually heats up, an even more shocking image suddenly appears outside the barrier, attracting everyone's attention.

A huge [Chimera] descended with its huge body, and its size was even slightly larger than that of the white dragon in the field, about 15.2 meters long, which was intimidating.

The front half of this Chimera is a majestic lion with strong muscles and golden hair, shining with a rare light on the battlefield; In the middle part is a goat as hard as a rock, with black fur covering the entire back, and two sharp horns pointing straight into the sky; At its tail is a hideous snake, its green scales reflecting a cold glow in the flames of war, and its tongue stretching from time to time, looking for its next target.

The giant Chimera showed its terrifying power the moment it arrived, and a giant claw easily pressed the head of a white dragon to the ground, and the huge force made the dragon head deeply embedded in the ground.

At the same time, the head of the snake that turned into its tail swooped down, and the sharp snake teeth pierced the scales on the neck of the other white dragon, causing it to fall to the ground weakly, and the blood stained the battlefield red. The goat's head in the middle of the Chimera erupted with blazing flames, colliding violently in the air with the cold breath of the other two white dragons, triggering a spectacular duel between fire and ice, bringing the surrounding temperature and emotions to a boiling point.

The Chimera was filled with unstoppable power, and all the creatures who witnessed it felt deep shock and fear.

"The ever-changing guardian of the family...... Alwin Wanxiang ......"

The dark elf smacked her tongue and looked at the huge avatar, she knew that the Thousand Variety Chemical Workshop family was ready to come out of the nest and defend the dignity of the Thousand Variety Chemical Workshop family in the Secret Whisper Square.

If the conflict continues to evolve, then this midwinter eve will be the full-scale outbreak of the civil war in the Whisper Square family.

This is different from the direction that other families originally considered, and the other seven families only

They want to unite on a midwinter night to drive away the Ever-Changing Workshop family, and they don't want a civil war to break out yet.

After all, there is too much to consider in starting a civil war with a [Juggernaut] family with a second-class incarnation, and a civil war breaks out between the lord of the plane who also owns one-eighth of the [Boundary Wedge].

The other families had hoped to defuse this potential conflict by acting collectively against the Ever-Changing Mill Families on Midwinter Night. They are not ready to directly start a civil war.

Inside the barrier.

In the darkness of the battlefield, Mira Wanxiang is now transformed into a giant hero, his claws clutching a member of the Dark Elf Shadow Guard, the unfortunate soldier in his powerful grip like a helpless toy, powerless to resist.

Mira's eyes shone wild and cruel, and his eyes were fixed on the leader of the Shadow Force, Irene, the Dark Elf warrior known in the Dark World.

Suddenly, Mira slammed the "toy" in her hand at Erin.

Peng –

There was a dull crash in the air, and then smoke and dust rose everywhere, and the scene became chaotic for a moment.

Erin quickly raised her arms, blocking the flying body and the smoke with incredible speed and agility.

As the smoke cleared and the scene became clear, Mira was surprisingly standing in front of Erin, his massive body hanging low with an irresistible majesty.

His voice was low and menacing, like the roar of an ancient beast, striking the soul.

"Miscellaneous, take your people, get out of the station of the Thousand-Changing Chemical Workshop at once!"

Erin clenched her fists, her eyes glinting with complexity—anger, calculation, and a subtle hint of awe.

She knew in her heart that the wisest choice now was to retreat. Any attempt at further provocation will make them the first to fall.

At such moments, even the proudest of the Dark Elves have to succumb to greater forces and rethink their positions and future choices.

******

Fifteen minutes later.

In the center of the field, Mira Wanxiang reverted to his original form from his bear incarnation, but the indomitable aura on her body did not diminish because of this. The air around him still seemed to reverberate with the shock and afterglow of the battle.

In the end, the tripartite coalition made the wisest choice, and chose to retreat under the courage and deterrence shown by the ever-changing mill family.

Standing on the sidelines, Erwin Wanxiang, as the elder and protector of the family, had mixed emotions in his eyes.

Although the battle won the safety of the family, the cost of each conflict was heavy. With his weather-beaten eyes, he slowly swept over every family member on the ground—standing or lying down forever.

The family members supported each other and began to clean up the battlefield, while the eyes of the family talker and the old patriarch met in the air, and the two looked at each other without saying a word.

After a moment of silence, Mira said to the old patriarch:

"Let's go see Serena."

"Hmm." Old Patriarch Elwyn nodded tiredly.

The two soon arrived at the family counselor who was being treated in the corner, and they both saw sadness in the counselor's eyes.

The family advisor, Serena, stood in the corner of the courtyard, silently gazing at the skyline in the distance, her heart filled with endless sadness and hesitation.

She was the advisor of the family, and her loyalty to the family was extremely strong, but at this moment, the doubts in her heart became heavier.

The relationship between the Workshop family and the rest of the family has deteriorated due to their cooperation with the Authority, which makes her feel extremely painful.

After experiencing a joint raid by other families, the family suffered heavy losses, which made the advisor's heart even heavier.

"Your heart is in turmoil, Serena." The old patriarch could see at a glance the wandering in the advisor's heart.

"I...... I'm just wondering if this behavior is worth it, and if it's worth it to have a complete fight with the other families in the area for the sake of the Authority. If we start with

The other families are standing in the united front, it's a big deal that everyone can close the hub together, just don't go out, why get involved in the battle between the Heavenly Kingdom and the Golden Court......" The family advisor replied with some hesitation.

"Child, all intellectual species are not passive recipients of things, but create their own existence through interaction with the world; The connection between the four factors of material, form, motivation and purpose can never be severed, and the retreat and locking hub will only be like the camels in Terra who hide their heads when they encounter danger, they are just deceiving themselves, creating a cognitive wall for themselves, not being able to see, does not mean that they do not exist, they are selectively invisible, and in the end they are harming themselves and their descendants."

The old patriarch stretched out his hand and stroked the head of the family advisor, soothing the confusion of the juniors.

"Although the world inside and outside the walls may be bad, when you can see the inside and outside at the same time, you will understand that when children learn to open their eyes to the world, then they will naturally have the spirit of self-reliance and unwavering determination, and they will understand that nothing is left to chance. They will understand that they must not rely on anything other than reason; They will realize that in the midst of intense suffering, even if a child dies or is riddled with disease, it will never change the normalcy of the world."

"Now, I need you to learn how to accept the 'favor' of your 'friend' so that you don't lose your self-esteem and don't take it for granted."

"The angels of heaven claim to lead humanity to greatness, and their greatness is always wrapped in a deeper ambition—the ambition to dominate all that is in the world, disguised by them as the ideal of saving mankind."

"The angels believe that the greatness of mankind lies in the fact that all things in the world rotate according to their will, as their educational books say: our comrades always fantasize in the books that if there is a so-called highest civilization, then this highest civilization will be endowed with all kinds of goodness. It will be portrayed as a utopia with a harmonious, progressive, and inclusive culture; is portrayed as a pioneer civilization capable of solving many real-world puzzles and guiding other weaker civilizations forward; All the good things are pinned on these invisible higher civilizations, but my colleagues have always been unable to answer or ignore the question - if there is a so-called highest civilization, then why can't it be a human civilization?"

"How arrogant are the angels of heaven, who want all the nations of the world to prostrate themselves under human supremacy, and who want not to kill, but to the greatness of mankind."

"They will not stab the stumbling of those who submit."

"So, do you know what to think of the Kingdom of Heaven now, and how to think of the Fourth Sword Bearer of the Kingdom of Heaven?"

"We are simply following the guidance of the pioneer civilization and following the beautiful path they have charted, we ...... There is no other choice."

[Whisper Square 1.15 Conflict Report]

[Whisper Square, January 15, Whisper Newspaper-News]

On this cold day on the eve of Midwinter, the north wing of Whisper Square takes center stage. The fierce conflict between the Thousand-Changing Chemical Workshop family and the tripartite alliance of the White Dragons, the Shadow Interweaver Family, and the Phantom Traveler Inn Family has attracted widespread attention. This incident is not only a conflict between families, but also a major test of the future direction of Miyu Square.

The incident stemmed from the Triple Alliance's hardline attitude towards the Ever-Changing Mill Clan, who demanded that the Workshop Family's trade goods comply with the new Secret Word rules.

In the face of unreasonable demands, the Ever-Changing Workshop family adopted a resolute defensive attitude and refused to open the door barrier.

Subsequently, the two sides clashed in the open space on the north flank.

After a short but fierce battle, the tripartite alliance finally chose to retreat, and the Ever-Changing Mill family won the victory with its courage and deterrence.

While the conflict averted a larger civil war, it also exposed tensions and security concerns within the Whisper Square.

In the face of growing tensions, the other families agreed that the joint meeting on Midwinter Night would be held as usual, and that they would work together to make a clear statement on the future direction of the Whisper Square

State.

The Whispers will continue to monitor the future development of this event and its impact on the future peace and prosperity of the square.
