Chapter 428: Blue Dragon
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The giant bird was unable to escape and felt extrely insecure and hysteric. After it shredded the nuclear-powered electromagnetic tank, its huge body was rampaging everywhere and most of the factories in its path were all destroyed. Several explosions happened and the sound of the explosions stimulated the giant bird, sending it into a frenzied state.
At this mont, a human shadow appeared on giant bird’s head unexpectedly. The giant bird seed to feel it. It was still running but its action got slightly erratic as its heart throbbed. However, before it had a chance to react, the shadow took out a knife and a strong wind blew the very next second. A saber was imdiately whipped out from its sheath and a bright light instantly shone like lightning, a high-frequency wave coming off it and spreading around.
The giant bird suddenly trembled and stopped any movent, ti seed to have stopped that very mont.
With the remaining inertia in its body, it continued to move forward a few steps. However, half of its head suddenly tilted and began slipping down from its body, the wound smooth like the surface of a mirror, exposing the gray brain. It was then that it finally stopped walking but the body still managed to shake a few tis before it eventually slumped on the ground.
"Boong!"
The ground was strongly shaking and it seed to cause a chain reaction as the nearby buildings also slowly collapsed one after another. if there are people here, they would find that those fallen buildings were having a similar fracture as the giant bird head as both were as smooth as a mirror.
By the ti this happened, the human shadow had disappeared.
...
Headquarters of the Security Division.
The chief kept walking back and forth anxiously. He was stressed out from the updates and news from the battlefield as well as the upper managent.
"Sir, the giant bird is dead." A soldier who was monitoring the movent of the screen suddenly stood up and said. Perhaps it was because he was too excited or maybe it was so strange, bizarre, and incredible that even the chair flew away when he stood up.
"Are you serious?" The chief suddenly stopped walking and said in a staggeringly loud voice.
Then he quickly went to the monitor. It was not only him but everyone in the headquarters who ca to confirm the news.
It was not completely accurate to say the bird had died. It was still exciting to see it move its body as it seed to struggle to stand up again. When it fell down again, a huge pit was ford in the hard cent floor. However, everyone could see that it was dying.
On the screen, everyone could clearly see half of its head missing. The entire upper section was full of blood and cerebral fluid was splashing everywhere due to its struggle.
"What just happened?" The chief asked with an agitated look.
"I ... I didn’t see it clearly!" The soldier said nervously. In fact, he found it strange as the image appeared out of the blue and the screen seed to violently shake a few tis as the giant bird walked a few steps before it fell to the ground.
"Replay the video!"
The soldier quickly replayed the video but they did not find the cause of its death except for a blowing wind before its death, a shock that caused many groups of people to stare at the screen with their eyes wide open.
The soldier replayed the video in slow motion without the need of a reminder.
At the mont, the chief cald down from his excitent as what happened was too bizarre.
If the bird had died due to their efforts, then it would certainly be a surprise. However, they may have to face a creature far more terrifying than the two giant monsters before them.
It would be a totally different story if the creature had the intention to beco an enemy of mankind.
The video was replayed again and again in slow motion. Three tis, five tis and it was only at the tenth ti that they found so slight changes in the images.
There was an insignificant shadow next to the giant bird’s head. Both seed so close together, the shadow was so insignificant when compared to the head of the giant bird which was eight to nine ters wide.
Even then, when it was played in slow motion for so many tis, the shadow they saw only appeared for half a second before it disappeared. Without paying full attention, the shadow may be impossible to detect.
"This body, is that a human?" An officer looked at the screen and mumbled uncertainly.
They looked at each other as they felt it was unreal.
"Continue to play the video slowly."
The soldier simply skipped ahead fifty tis.
Fortunately, in order to cope with various situations of endless bizarre incidents after the apocalypse, unmanned aerial vehicles were installed with a miniaturized high-speed cara so even if the video was played in fifty tis slower than the regular speed, the video would still remain clear and smooth.
This ti, they were absolutely certain that it was a human. In the image on the screen, the man was dressed in black and his body seed unclear. It was difficult to see his features as the air around him seed to be dense.
Especially when his hands were holding the saber, the video got distorted and they were unable to see clearly.
Although they could not see the face, the black suit and saber helped the chief recall sothing. He turned around and said, "That should be one of us! Get the video uploaded to the intelligence departnt!"
Suddenly, a loud sound from a massive bomb ca from far. The cannon on the wall had begun firing.
The chief’s face beca pale and he quickly pressed and held the built-in microphone in his helt to connect to the communication channel, he then loudly ordered, "I am the chief of the Security Division, Chen Junde, please cancel the current command imdiately. Stop firing imdiately. I repeat, stop firing imdiately."
...
30 minutes ago.
Luo Yuan was still wandering in the space when the explosion of the hydrogen bomb explosion emitted a strong light. He could clearly feel the shock.
His vision was far beyond the limits of the human eye and was comparable to the resolution a satellite can provide. The cities and factories in the reconstruction area were clearly visible and he could even identify the trucks on the streets.
After the hydrogen bomb exploded not far from the reconstruction area, Luo Yuan paid very high attention to that spot.
The very next mont, the situation deteriorated rapidly when the two monsters were seen escaping the nuclear attack. The city seed like it needed help, and the system gave him a mission.
"C-Level Mission: Saving Hope City"
"Ti Length: One day"
"Accept / Decline"
He was shocked but did not hesitate to accept the mission.
Not to ntion, his power has been upgraded several tis and he had been waiting to try fighting the level eight mysterious lifeforms. Based on the description of the mission, he had no ti to hesitate at all.
Hope City was his lair with a population of over one million. All his wives also lived there, if he allowed the two level-eight creatures to rage in the Hope City, it might not be safe even if they were living in an underground city.
He quickly initiated the space-ti bubble and returned to earth.
Although his speed was faster now, his level nine Four-Dinsional Travel only allowed him to travel at a maximum of only about three hundred kiloters in a single leap, and each use consud quite a lot of his Will. Even if he was at his optimal condition, he could only manage to leap 11 to 12 tis which would bring him 3000 to 4000 kiloters. Unfortunately, that was only one-tenth of the journey based on the current distance between him and the earth.
Before his Will beca more powerful, the ability to teleport was rely a ans of traveling between planetary bodies. In the vastness of space, the space-ti bubble was still the best way of moving about.
It was only when he reached the troposphere that he teleported nearby the giant bird to kill it.
Perhaps it was due to the injuries the level-eight creature sustained or his sudden appearance, the battle seed too easy and was beyond Luo Yuan’s expectations. He had thought it would have been a risky battle but it would seem that one slice was enough to kill it.
...
After withdrawing the saber, Luo Yuan imdiately teleported to a higher altitude.
The entire view of Hope City was kept under his powerful vision.
Later, it ca to his realization that he could not find the other level-eight creature, it seems that the scream of the giant bird before its death had completely scared it away. He searched over and over again and finally found the footprints. No matter how hard creatures of this size tried to hide, they would always be betrayed by the fact that they would leave huge footprints and accidentally hit buildings around it.
The creature disappeared again and when it reappeared, it was standing by the edge of a huge pit.
The hole was a hundred ters wide and two levels underground were opened up by a violent force. Several footprints which looked like huge ponds seed to have completely halted there and then. Apparently, the creature drilled a hole.
At this mont, Luo Yuan felt soone watching him and as he turned around to look, he found a few acquaintances. However, it was not a good ti to talk so he just nodded his head slightly. He then turned around imdiately without hesitation and jumped into the hole. With his foresight ability, he was not afraid of an attack from the creature.
...
"The man looks like my master!" Fang Peibin said surprisingly as he stared at him from a few kiloters away.
"I think it’s him! The silhouette seed very similar especially since he’s also holding a saber!" Xu Zhiqiang said with a dignified face, "I guess only Brother Luo has the courage to kill such a monster."
Lin Feiyan turned pale as she overheard their conversation. She clenched her fists and she felt an uncontrollable chill, imdiately taking a deep breath in an attempt to calm down.
Her blinking eyes had a firm stare at the hole as several mbers looked at one another while hinting secretly. They stepped back quietly to avoid suffering an unexpected disaster.
Within half a minute the ground violently shook as a loud sound was heard.
"Boong!"
The beast which had been secretly drilling into the ground suddenly jumped out and ran along the streets. Its huge body destroyed the factories along the streets as well as breaking countless blocks of buildings, causing a lot of stones and dust to fly everywhere.
The atmosphere beca scary and a few mbers who were hiding at the junction with pale faces quickly turned around and ran in desperation. They ran for about 400 to 500 ters before they finally stopped after seeing the monster’s body disappear completely from the junction.
Several people who still lingered around in fear looked at each other, finding what had happened completely unbelievable. Only Lin Feiyan’s face beca dark due to being overly frightened but she continued to press forward.
"Captain, which way do we go?" Wu Qianru quietly asked but unfortunately, no one cared about this.
Li Dong breathed heavily and said, "You... Have you seen it?"
"See what?" Wu Qianru was lost and asked miserably. She was busy running when the giant beast ca and completely forgot what she had seen.
"That was Captain Luo, you didn’t see him standing on the head of the monster?" Xie Junhui seed scared and excited as his entire body trembled. He answered on behalf of Li Dong as he was still gasping for air.
"You saw it? I thought I was wrong, what is happening?" Xu Zhiqiang said.
...
In fact, Xu Zhiqiang was not the only miserable one but Luo Yuan did not even know what was happening.
When he entered the cave, the level eight creature in the shape of a dragon was resting at a corner, motionless. However, it seed scared and was shivering when Luo Yuan ca closer.
Initially, the Blue Dragon was not so weak. Although it was powerful, its attack pattern was not aggressive. In fact, the human body was actually quite tempting for it.
However, Luo Yuan just killed and the blood of the giant bird tainted his shirt. Its screams before its death had taught the Blue Dragon a lesson and caused it to be in fear.
Especially more so when this ’tiny creature’ did not even seem afraid when he saw the dragon. As a highly intelligent creature, this fact alone was enough to scare it to death when it imagined the consequence, notwithstanding the fact that this dragon was a coward!
Before Luo Yuan taken any action, the system sent him a ssage.
"The light purple Blue Dragon has completely surrendered to you. Do you want to keep it as your war beast?"
"Cancel / Confirm"
Luo Yuan was stunned and hesitated slightly but he finally accepted the surrender of this creature.
In fact, with his current level of Strength, this war beast would be of little help. It would be the sa even if it were a level-eight creature. The war beasts would not be able to augnt his ability to move super-fast and fight rapidly.
He had sothing else in his mind. Such a high-leveled organism appearing in the reconstruction area would ensure its safety and will also serve as a precaution to prevent the upper managent from attempting anything bad.
The newly surrendered Blue Dragon had a very low level of loyalty which was just 60%.
Since he had experience in monitoring the giant lizard and King Kong previously. Luo Yuan believed that this was just temporary.
Luo Yuan stood on the Blue Dragon’s head and traveled across the street. Perhaps, the monitor back at the headquarters had already received the ssage as they were not attacked along the journey. After half a minute, the Blue Dragon leaped and flew about 1000 kiloters upward, jumping over walls before it landed in a forest.
As the Blue Dragon saw the forest, it felt relaxed and could not help but make a long howl.
