Chapter 453: Chapter 276: Epic-Level Crisis_1

"All the gifts have already been secretly priced, haven’t they."

Gu Qingyi saw the message, her eyes flickering continuously. The Dragon Pearl Fragment had given her a head start, yet she hadn’t expected it to bring about such a disaster.

"I’ll be right there."

She responded to the Devil City Association, ready to head to Devil City, but at that moment, Lu Ran grabbed her arm and said, "Wait a moment, Doctor Gu."

"Judging from the pictures, this Divine Dragon’s level is likely above Level 70. Even the Fishman King would be no match for it. Your going there won’t do any good. On the contrary, you might actually become its main target, just like Manager Ying predicted."

"What can we do then?"

Gu Qingyi looked towards Lu Ran, who sighed helplessly, "What I mean is, Manager Ying and I will go with you. We can at least cover for you a bit, especially in terms of escaping."

Manager Ying: ?

......

With the Black Dragon’s appearance, the skies and earth changed colors. In Devil City, countless Beast Trainers gathered, looking at the giant Divine Dragon in the sky, were almost scared witless, their faces turning deathly pale.

The news here spread across the country at an extremely fast pace, and pictures of the Black Dragon taken by passersby were rapidly shared on the internet.

People all over the country were shocked to see the apocalyptic scene behind the Black Dragon.

Of course, the most nervous were the Beast Trainers in Devil City. In recent days, there had been instances of powerful Evil Beasts attacking in various countries, and some small nations had already been eradicated by ancient creatures.

Xia Country had been relatively fortunate, with no major disasters thus far, but with the appearance of this Black Dragon, the fear among the Beast Trainers in Devil City rose dramatically.

In terms of sheer power, this Black Dragon was far more terrifying than the giant serpent that wreaked havoc on the African Continent.

[Species]: Black Abyss Dragon King

[Attribute]: Dragon (Dark, Water, Fire)

[Species Level]: High-Level Overlord

[Growth Level]: Level 70

Some Beast Trainers with a middle-tier Data Eye, upon seeing the Black Dragon’s details, felt an even colder chill, there was no doubt that this was a top-tier ancient creature.

"Roar!!!" As the Black Abyss Dragon King flew over Devil City, locked on by countless weapons, it displayed a disdainful expression.

In that disdain, there was a hint of perplexity because the scent it had been searching for was strongest here. However, once it truly arrived, the scent vanished.

[I am looking for a Dragon Pearl Fragment.]

[It is with you.]

[I give you 10 days to find the fragment and hand it over, and then we can live in peace.]

[Otherwise, in 10 days, I will come to search for it myself. When that happens, I cannot guarantee that the search will not result in destruction.]

While the Black Abyss Dragon King held disdain for the warships, fighter jets, and Beast Trainers gathered before it, it did not dare to act rashly or recklessly.

Recently, the International League used several nuclear bombs to bombard an ancient giant snake, and powerful Evil Beasts across the globe had sensed the terrifying power of those weapons.

Although some Evil Beasts believed that as long as they were aware of these weapons in advance, they would not be hit, they were somewhat wary of human technological methods.

Seeing that the clues had disappeared, the Black Abyss Dragon King left a few declarative sentences through Psychic Sensing, choosing to let humans figure out how to find and submit the Dragon Pearl Fragment.

The Dragon Pearl Fragment was useless to humans, and it believed that these humans would not seek trouble by becoming enemies with the Dragon Palace.

Having spoken, the Black Dragon King, under the watchful eyes of countless nervous people, twisted its body and flew away from the area.

Not until its figure vanished did the multitudes of defenders gathered in Devil City finally breathe a sigh of relief, a wave of fear washing over them.

"What does that monster mean..."

A retired First Generation Beast Trainer stood atop a high tower, watching the departing silhouette of the Black Dragon, baffled. A Dragon Pearl Fragment?

Does Xia Country possess such a thing?

"Damn it, that guy is too arrogant," a hotheaded Beast Trainer cursed out loud after the Black Dragon departed.

"But it has the capital to be arrogant."

"Bomb it with nuclear weapons," some retorted, "just like the other countries."

"That’s too difficult. The restrictions for using such weapons are too great, the conditions too stringent."

Watching the Black Dragon King’s receding figure, many gasped for breath, feeling as if they had narrowly escaped death’s door. The whole of Xia Country broke out in cold sweat, but internationally, most countries didn’t share the same sense of solidarity.

Instead, they were watching with amusement.

Intelligence of the Black Dragon King’s descent upon Devil City was also swiftly obtained by the major powers.

"This big Eastern Country has been targeted by Evil Beasts too, and it’s a draconic ancient creature!"

"I wonder how they plan to handle it?"

"This Black Dragon King must be from the Dragon Palace, a deep-sea overlord. If there’s a conflict, nuclear weapons will be difficult to deploy effectively. Moreover, with the circumstances in Xia Country, they likely won’t use nuclear weapons easily."

"So, will they capitulate?"

"Like in the past, ceding territory, paying compensation, welcoming with a smile."

Disasters struck countries around the world, and even the Divine Eagle Federation had experienced two incidents with ancient creatures. Now Xia Country finally faced a threat from an ancient creature, instantly garnering global attention.

In fact, a large number of people regretted why there hadn’t been a direct confrontation.

"It actually left."

Atop the highest tower in Devil City, the figures of Lu Ran, Gu Qingyi, and Manager Ying appeared, looking out towards the now peaceful sea. The three of them caught their breath; on their way here, they were undoubtedly extremely tense, unsure of what they would face upon arrival. Thankfully, the situation wasn’t as bad as it could have been.
