Chapter 200: Destruction, Don’t Be a Busybody
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Why do the humans have so many nuclear weapons? How many do they have?”
One of the golden dragons spoke, feeling frustrated as it looked at the explosions outside the s.h.i.+eld.
“Based on the information that we gathered, all the different alliances have an innumerable number of nuclear weapons. No one can be sure how many they have created,” another golden dragon said.
“These d.a.m.ned humans,” a golden dragon cursed.
“Enough. Focus on the defense. These weapons will stop eventually,” Jin Qiong chided.
All the dragons felt frustrated, but they could not do anything about the situation. The nuclear weapons outside the s.h.i.+eld were indeed phenomenal.
Their bodies would not be able to withstand it.
There were too many nuclear weapons. At the same time, they had to defend the troops that were more than a hundred thousand strong, so all they could do was to maintain the Overturn Oceans Formation despite feeling frustrated.
However, even though the nuclear weapons were very powerful, they were slightly relieved because they were in the ocean.
They were at the bottom of the ocean, which naturally provided them with a barrier. Most missiles imploded at a distance away from them before they could reach the formation.
Hence, defending against the missiles was not as tough as imagined.
Jin Qiong felt relieved as well. This time, these nuclear weapons were unable to hit them accurately.
It should be because they were at the bottom of the ocean.
His decision was right. They must not emerge from the ocean and should only stay at the bottom of the ocean.
At the same time as these thoughts appeared in his mind, what he failed to realize was that the dark clouds and the lightning in the sky were already dispersed by the bombardment of the nuclear weapons.
Immediately, all the data technology centers of the different countries started running.
“The dark clouds and the lightning have dispersed. Recover the signal now.”
“Quick, quick! How much longer will it take to restore the lock-on capability of the nuclear weapons?”
“Report! We need two more minutes at most to lock on the target.”
…
As the data quickly acc.u.mulated, more than one minute quickly pa.s.sed by. During this period, no more nuclear weapons were fired.
It seemed to have stopped completely, and Jin Qiong and the dragons also noticed.
They were delighted.
It was finally over.
However, just as they felt uplifted, suddenly; a series of long trails cut across the sky again.
Unlike the previous attacks where it targeted this section of the ocean only, this time, these missiles that carried nuclear cores seemed to have their own vision and were landing at the same spot.
The spot was rather large, at least big enough to allow a large-scale nuclear bombardment.
Immediately…
Boom!
Earth-shattering explosions blasted, and displaced large amounts of water skyward, to the point where the ocean seemed to have switched positions with the sky.
Even the land of j.a.pan that was already submerged was split apart, triggering even greater volcano eruptions and earthquakes.
The inferno raged into the skies and formed a huge mushroom cloud.
The deafening explosions rang throughout the sky and spread infinitely far away.
Even the j.a.panese Emperor, who had long escaped, and s.h.i.+na Zobe, who had regrouped with him, heard the sounds.
The both of them looked at the blazing red sky far away in the distance, and grief and ire were visible on their faces.
“d.a.m.n it, those d.a.m.ned allied countries took the opportunity to attack the Dragon Clan,” the j.a.panese Emperor said with gritted teeth.
Hatred flashed across s.h.i.+na Zobe’s eyes, and he said reverently, “Your Majesty, our j.a.panese empire is not destroyed yet. We still have a chance.
“This time, just because the Tiger King would not help, the allied countries decided to abandon our j.a.panese empire and bombarded the Dragon Clan troops by sacrificing our empire.
“We must not forget about this feud, but we must endure it again. One day, we will rise up once more.”
Even though firing so many nuclear weapons near the j.a.pan Alliance would have impacts on the China Alliance and the Russia Alliance, the impact would still be under control.
This was one of the reasons why the alliance abandoned j.a.pan.
Compared to the China Alliance and the Russia Alliance, the j.a.pan Alliance was still too weak.
Moreover, the Dragon Clan coincidentally invaded the j.a.pan Alliance, and the Tiger King was also coincidentally in seclusion.
Due to various reasons, it resulted in the alliance tacitly agreeing to abandon the j.a.pan Alliance decisively.
The j.a.panese Emperor nodded determinedly and said, “That’s right. No matter how many times our j.a.panese empire has lost, we have always endured patiently and risen up again time after time.
“This time will be the same. We will get revenge one day. Every person that offended our j.a.pan must die.
“s.h.i.+na, don’t worry. I know what I need to do.”
s.h.i.+na Zobe nodded and felt slightly relieved. The j.a.panese Emperor was the spiritual support of all the j.a.panese people. As long as the emperor performed well, their hopes would become bigger.
The leader turned to look at the fiery red sky far away in the distance and couldn’t help but feel envious. He said, “What a pity that our country j.a.pan was restricted for too many years, and our technology in nuclear weapons progressed too slowly.
“The speed of our missiles is too slow, and the other alliances were all capable of intercepting it.
“Otherwise, the other allied countries wouldn’t have dared to abandon j.a.pan so easily.”
As he said, he felt a sense of ruthlessness rise within him.
The j.a.panese Emperor nodded and agreed. If that wasn’t the case, they could very well just point their missiles at the other countries, and they wouldn’t have dared to abandon j.a.pan so easily.
j.a.pan had never lacked the determination to perish together with everyone.
“Huh…? That is…?”
Suddenly, an uncertain voice sounded from a man who stood a few meters behind them.
The man had a formidable presence, and he held a tachi sword.
The j.a.panese Emperor and s.h.i.+na Zobe were alarmed, and they looked curiously in the same direction.
Immediately after, the man’s expression changed, and he exclaimed, “It’s a nuclear missile!”
As he said, he dashed towards the emperor and s.h.i.+na Zobe and tried to escape with them.
Realization dawned on the emperor and s.h.i.+na Zobe, and their faces turned as white as a ghost.
They were so far away from the Dragon Clan, yet a missile was fired in this direction.
Needless to say, someone wanted to kill them.
Who was it?!
Both of them looked at each other with terror, and they both thought of the same answer.
Who else other than them?!
“B*star—!”
Before they could even finish their yelling, an explosion blasted into the sky.
The explosions of five nuclear missiles instantly submerged the aircraft carrier that transported more than a hundred thousand people.
The man with a formidable presence, together with the j.a.panese Emperor and s.h.i.+na Zobe were directly struck by one of the missiles, and they immediately disintegrated into dust.
In the distance, three figures—who were decked in black attire from top to bottom, with even their faces covered—had been hiding at the bottom of the ocean.
“Five missiles was already going too easy on them,” one of the figures said frostily.
“I feel so good seeing this happen,” another one of them said with a smile.
“I feel good, too.” The first being also smiled.
“Enough. Quickly check if there are any survivors,” one of them—who appeared to be their leader—said.
“Yes.”
After the conversation that happened in English ended, the three figures quickly approached the s.h.i.+pwreck and were unbothered by the shock waves that resulted from the five missiles exploding.
After a few minutes, they quickly swam away from the scene.
Another few minutes later, a chain of reports was transmitted back to the capital of China.
At this point, all the other alliances were focused on the site of the Dragon Clan’s invasion and were not aware of the missile attack on the aircraft carrier that carried the j.a.panese Emperor and s.h.i.+na Zobe yet.
It was after a few more minutes that the India Alliance and the Russia Alliance first received the news.
Te Bajing, Bay, and the other senior officials were perplexed. They suspected something but eventually chose not to say a thing.
What else was there to say when the people already died?
Now was not a good time. Maybe after the battle…
At this point, Jin Qiong and the other dragons have left their original position after being bombarded by hundreds of nuclear missiles.
Out of the few hundred thousand soldiers, about 20,000 soldiers perished. All of them died from the tremors.
The expressions of Jin Qiong and the other dragons were grave.
They no longer dared to remain in the same spot.
The chain of attacks just now almost destroyed the defense of the Overturn Oceans Formation.
If Jin Qiong had not used the Ocean-Suppressing Seal and the Water-Controlling Flag in time, it would have been destroyed.
Still, about 20,000 soldiers perished.
Clearly, the humans had locked down on their location just now, and they were able to accurately target them
No—something was wrong.
“Third Prince, we seem to have been locked down on by the humans. They are able to target us accurately. We cannot continue to shoulder attacks like this anymore,” a golden dragon said.
“You’re right. Create new water dragons again to block us from the missiles,” another golden dragon said seriously.
Jin Qiong agreed, and the humming of dragons rose from the seabed.
Around 150 water dragons appeared in the four sides of the Overturn Oceans Formation to block the Dragon Clan troops from the unending missile attack.
Although the missiles traveled at an extremely high speed, it was slowed down after entering the ocean, and the water dragons were able to intercept the missiles and prevented them from hitting the Overturn Oceans Formation directly.
Once the water dragons were hit by the missiles, each blew up together with the missiles.
At the same time, since Jin Qiong and the dragons knew that their position had been exposed, they did not remain in the same place and kept moving.
In the capital of China…
In the cabinet meeting, one man was reporting the information.
“Leader, the Dragon Clan troops did as we predicted. They are creating water dragons to block the bombardment, and it’s causing them to exhaust themselves quickly.
“However, 100 more nuclear missiles is the maximum that we can continue to fire.
“Otherwise, the irreparable change caused to the geology of the seabed will cause unfathomable damage to China.”
Dong Pingtao and the rest frowned. A hundred missiles…
Was that all they could fire?
Actually, they knew that the situation was much better than before.
It was not known whether it was due to the spiritual energy or not; however, since the awakening of spiritual energy, Earth had grown larger. The soil, mountains, and seabed had all turned tougher.
Else, they wouldn’t have dared to possibly think about firing so many nuclear weapons at the oceans near j.a.pan.
If it triggered a huge change to the seabed, the disastrous wrath of Earth was not something that humans could withstand today.
“Okay. Inform all the alliances and the Tiger King.”
Dong Pingtao instructed.
“Understood.”
In the next few minutes, another 100 missiles were intercepted and imploded by the water dragons of the Overturn Oceans Formation.
Finally, everything settled down.
The missiles no longer cut across the sky, and the flames that threatened to burn up the entire ocean gradually turned smaller.
The nuclear attack stopped, and only the wrath of the ocean continued with its tumultuous waves.
A few hundred kilometers away from the Dragon Clan troops, w.a.n.g Hu and 200 human Third Realms stood quietly.
w.a.n.g Hu had just arrived not long ago, while the 200 Third Realms arrived before him.
Before w.a.n.g Hu came out of his seclusion, these Third Realms had already gathered and headed over to j.a.pan.
Most of them were from the China Alliance. Only five were from the Russia Alliance and the other five were from the other alliances.
Before it was certain whether w.a.n.g Hu would help or not, the alliances—especially China—had already made up their minds…
They should expel the Dragon Clan back to their world no matter what price they had to pay.
Even if it resulted in the change in the geology of the seabed and triggering unfathomable results, they were prepared to do it.
They even deployed 190 Third Realm elites.
However, after confirming that w.a.n.g Hu would aid in the attack, the plans changed.
No one wanted to cause an irrevocable change to the geology of the seabed and result in unimaginable outcomes.
After looking for a few more seconds, w.a.n.g Hu moved. He took a step in the direction of the Dragon Clan troops alone…
…and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Afterward, the 200 human Third Realms then started to approach the site.
It wasn’t because they didn’t want to move with the Tiger King and fight at the same time…
It was because the Tiger King did not allow them to follow him and fight together. He only allowed them to wait for his command.
They were aware that the Tiger King was unsatisfied with their combat powers and was worried that they would impede his plans.
Although they felt a little upset, they didn’t dare to do a thing.
They could only comply dutifully.
On the other hand, Jin Qiong and the dragons stayed at the bottom of the ocean.
They finally heaved a sigh of relief. It stopped.
It finally stopped.
The feeling of being stifled to fight with these inanimate tools was too miserable for them.
They could only defend themselves pa.s.sively and wasted a huge amount of energy. They could not cause even the slightest hint of damage to their opponent and suffered from losses instead.
Their hearts ached from so much misery that their desire to kill raged even more.
“These d.a.m.ned humans! The attack finally stopped. Just wait till we make the ocean submerge all the land one day, and these humans won’t be able to continue their bravado!” a golden dragon said furiously.
“Yes!”
The other dragons concurred.
“Enough. This world is not simple, so we need to tread carefully. Now, we need to submerge the j.a.pan Alliance ASAP and gather the information we need at the same time,” another prudent golden dragon said seriously.
Jin Qiong nodded. Even though he was also feeling very furious, their task was more important.
“Third Prince, how about we take a rest? We have exhausted a lot of energy, and nothing could stop us from wiping out the j.a.pan Alliance,” one golden dragon said hesitantly.
Jin Qiong took a look at the other dragons and the troops… and hesitated.
Everyone, including him, was really quite exhausted.
He thought for a moment, and just as he was about to say something, a golden flash suddenly approached them.
In the blink of an eye, it was right before them—
The flash transformed into the figure that Jin Qiong and the other dragons could not forget.
“Di Zun!”
Many dragons exclaimed, and their tone was audibly reverent and solemn.
Jin Qiong and the dragons turned silent. They frowned and shot daggers at that figure. The Overturn Oceans Formation, which had not been retracted completely, started to circulate at the maximum.
The Ocean-Suppressing Seal, the Water-Controlling Flag, and the golden glow of the s.h.i.+eld intensified. All the 150 water dragons appeared and stared in the same direction.
All of their bodies grew to the maximum size possible—as big as 180 meters long.
Jin Qiong silently held tightly to the trump card that his Father gave him, and it finally made him feel more confident.
He stared coldly at the figure that made his breathing slightly heavy and yelled, “Di Zun, what are you doing here?!”
“All of you dare to come to Earth again. Seems like you have a new tactic this time. Show me then,” w.a.n.g Hu said coolly as he looked at the Dragon Clan troops.
The battle spirit in him surged furiously again.
Jin Qiong and the dragons looked frostily at w.a.n.g Hu.
“Hmph! Di Zun, we did not bother you this time. Don’t be a busybody! Don’t a.s.sume that we can’t do anything to you,” Jin Qiong said domineeringly.
A look of interest appeared on w.a.n.g Hu’s arrogant and confident face, “I would like to see what you can do to me.”
