Many people laughed out of despair.
The Dragon must have caught wind of Project Dragon Slayer, and he was returning the favor, starting with the Iga clan. He must have the other major forces in his sights too.
“Quick, quick! Notify the other masters to return to their home bases. What are you waiting for? Hurry up and go!” The Minister of Defence roared ferociously.
The four forces were the pillars of the Dongying cultivation world, and one of them had fallen. If no one stopped the Dragon, they would all be wiped out.
“Yes!”
Someone answered hurriedly and picked up the phone.
“Where’s the map? Show me the map!” The Minister of Defence roared again.
Soon, a map appeared on the screen.
“Where’s Mount Koga?”
A red dot appeared on the map, not far away from Mount Iga.
“Inform the nearby military bases. Send everyone over and seal off that mountain. And the jets too. Mobilize anything that can fly!
“Start firing once you find the target, and don’t stop until they’re dead!
“What? You need the Prime Minister’s permission? Just wait, I’ll get it soon!”
Military bases all across Dongying sprung into action as orders were passed down.
All the lights were on at the nearest military base.
Helicopters rose into the air one by one/ The gates of the military base opened, and armored vehicles and tanks rolled out.
The fleet of vehicles headed toward Mount Koga like a long steel dragon.
Military jets from several airbases scrambled to get into the air.
Sonic booms echoed in the sky.
Meanwhile, Tang Hao found a hiding place and regulated his breathing.
His qi reserves were almost empty, and he was very weak. The mirror Artifact might be extremely powerful, but he could only fire two more shots at most. His qi reserves would be completely drained after that.
He started moving again at about five o’clock.
He rushed to the vicinity of Mount Koga and furrowed his brows when he assessed the situation.
The mountain had long been sealed off. Armored vehicles and tanks were parked crosswise on the road. Behind them were rows of fully-armed soldiers.
Tang Hao would not be afraid if that were all that stood in front of him. However, he looked into the sky and saw fighter jets and helicopters patrolling.
“I can’t possibly fight all of that!”
Tang Hao was a little frustrated. If he barged in, he would be bombarded by concentrated fire.
He soon came up with a plan. “You want a fight? I’ll bring a fight to you then!” He muttered coldly.
After saying that, he turned around and drove away.
Chapter 575 - What A Freak
The sun had risen.
A car drove toward a military base somewhere in Dongying.
When it got close to the entrance, a sentry came to chase it away.
“What’s wrong with you? Don’t you know that this is a restricted military area?” The Dongyingese soldier shouted.
“I need to pee, Big Bro! Let me use the toilet!” Tang Hao stuck his head out of the car and grinned.
The Dongyingese soldier was surprised. Then, he became angry.
“Do you have a death wish, you brat? How dare you cause trouble here!” He cursed and walked toward the car.
Soon, the pitch-black muzzle of a gun appeared from the window.
Bang! A headshot.
The other sentries were shocked. They shouted, hurriedly took out their guns, and prepared to shoot.
However, the gun in the car fired several more times, and they fell to the ground.
The next moment, an ear-piercing alarm rang in the base.
Several groups of soldiers rushed out of the base. Those were the only people remaining there.
They were stunned as soon as they reached the entrance. They saw someone standing at the gate with something on his shoulder.
They were almost scared out of their wits.
‘F*ck! That’s an RPG!
‘Where did this freak come from?’
Whoosh!
A rocket was fired, and the people were sent flying.
After a quick volley of machine gunfire, the battle was over.
Tang Hao entered the base and walked around. He took what he could and replenished the weapons in his pocket dimension. Those that he could not carry away were destroyed on the spot, and he placed explosives everywhere.
“Nice!”
Tang Hao sat in the car and watched the base behind him explode. He felt a lot better after that.
Those Dongyingese wanted to eliminate him. He had to get back at them somehow.
“How about… I blow up a few more bases? I blew up many more military bases in Hindustan, and these Dongyingese are much worse than the Hindustanis. I’d be disappointed in myself if I don’t destroy a few more!”
With that in mind, Tang Hao drove off toward the next military base. He wanted the Dongyingese to regret their decision.
He started the car and drove away at full speed.
…
“Wow! Another base goes up in flames!”
“Oh my god! How many is that? This is crazy!”
At the command center in the eastern military region of Huaxia, everyone stared at the screen excitedly.
“So that’s the handiwork of the legendary figure? He’s a freak!” Someone exclaimed.
Earlier, they heard of a shocking incident in the western military region. Someone had crossed the border into Hindustan and blew up seven bases in a row. The Hindustani forces were begging Huaxia to recall that person.
The incident had shocked the entire army.
However, many people did not believe it. Charging into another country alone and bombing seven bases sounded like nothing more than fantasy!
Now, they had no choice but to believe that such a legendary figure existed in the Chinese army!
They were incredibly excited and even fanatical when they looked at the smoking Dongyingese military bases on the screen.
“Wow! He’s my idol! I wonder if he’s handsome?”
Several young female soldiers gathered together. Their eyes were sparkling with excitement.
Mu Xintong frowned slightly when she overheard their discussion.
However, she could feel a disturbance in her ice-cold heart.
“He’s really popular!” She murmured softly in a curious tone.
On the other side, General Bai was standing together with a group of highly-ranked generals.
“Sigh! This kid is making a big fuss again! He’s not easy to control!” One of the generals sighed. “Even so, this is a very satisfying outcome. Dongying has been restless lately!”
“The situation is messy, yes, but it’s fine. There won’t be a war!”
The group of generals laughed casually.
On this side, the atmosphere was jovial and relaxed. On the other side, the Dongyingese generals were furious.
“Trash! All of you are trash! He’s just one person. Can’t you all hunt him down?” The Minister of Defence pounded the table and roared angrily.
His entire body was trembling out of anger.
He was expecting the Dragon to force his way up Mount Koga. Instead, the Dragon had gone around bombing bases in an uncontrollable fashion.
The bases blew up one after another, as though the Dragon was a pyromaniac!
‘Dammit! Can’t he give us a break?
‘How much money is going up in flames? I’d rather not know!’
He had just gotten off the phone with the Prime Minister, who had scolded him profusely.
He was furious. He wanted to catch that guy and bombard him until there was nothing of him left.
However, that guy was as slippery as an eel.
The feeling of helplessness, even though he had the power, was incredibly frustrating.
“Um… Minister, why don’t we evacuate all
the people in the nearby bases? The buildings can be rebuilt, but we won’t have anything left if no one is alive,” someone said cautiously.
“What did you say?” The minister’s eyes widened. “You coward! We Dongyingese do not fear death!”
That person immediately fell silent.
The hall was equally silent.
At that moment, a phone call came in.
“It’s from Koga. The Dragon has appeared!”
“What? How did he get over there? Quick, support them!”
However, when the fighter jets arrived, the mountain was already covered in flames, and not a single person was left alive.
“Urgh…” The minister’s body teetered. He clutched his chest and almost fell down.
All that was merely a diversion. The Dragon’s target was Mount Koga after all.
Moreover, the Dragon had destroyed all the nearby airbases. The fighter jets could not take off or land there, which meant that support was delayed.
“How despicable!” He cursed through gritted teeth. He was so angry that his chest was about to explode.
“All of you are trash. Can’t you come up with a solution?” He pointed at the people in front of him and roared.
The people all lowered their heads.
What could they hope to do against that freak?
Now that Koga was gone, all that was left were the two major shrines. They might be able to defend themselves if they joined forces, but it would be almost impossible if they wanted to defeat that Huaxianese.
“Minister, why don’t we invite them over?” Someone said.
“Eh? Invite who?”
“Nanyang and Hindustan. Those two countries have some conflicts with China, so they’ll definitely be willing to help. Oh right, we can inform Europe and Merrica too.
“Once the other forces come over, we can set up a trap for that bastard.”
The minister was surprised. After pondering for a moment, he became excited.
“Good idea! Why didn’t I think of that? The more the merrier! Hurry up and contact them. We must get them over.”
Immediately, a series of calls were made from Dongying, connecting to Nanyang, Hindustan, and even Europe.
Chapter 576 - Hindustan Is Here
“What? The Dragon of Huaxia is in Dongying?”
“Haha! Serves them right! Those Dongyingese aren’t good people either! What? They want us to go over and kill the Dragon together?”
“That’s good news! Let’s go! Whatever Huaxia has, Hindustan has too. Whatever Hindustan doesn’t have, Huaxia can’t have it either!”
“That’s why we must kill the Dragon!”
When the news reached Hindustan, the remaining holy mountains were in an uproar.
“Huaxia has gone too far for destroying one of our holy mountains. We must take revenge! We’ll kill the Dragon in return for the holy mountain.”
“Revenge! Revenge!”
On a holy mountain, the Hindustani cultivators raised their arms high in anger.
They were all bags of skin and bones. However, their skin was dark gold and had a metallic luster.
Those people were ascetics. They practiced the mystical art of yoga, and their bodies were extremely resilient.
At first glance, people might think that they were refugees.
The elders of the previous generation were awakened amid the frenzied atmosphere. They led the ascetics onto planes and headed toward Dongying with murderous intent.
When the news reached Europe, the reaction was completely different.
“Hahaha! Dongying is also in trouble? Great! If they are in trouble, let’s all be in trouble!”
The warlocks gloated in their towers.
“What? You’re asking us to go over and help you?”
The laughter stopped instantly.
The smiles on the warlocks’ faces disappeared, and their gazes started to flicker.
“That… that’s not a good idea? The Dragon might be despicable, but what harm has he caused us, other than stealing a few things?”
“That’s right! We’re peaceful people! We want friendship! We’re good friends with Huaxia!” The warlocks lied without skipping a beat.
The others rolled their eyes, thinking to themselves, ‘What nonsense! Would good friends empty our vault?’
However, they were not going to agree to kill the Dragon. The Dragon belonged to Mao Mountain, and they were fearful of retaliation.
“Oh my! I feel dizzy. My head spins whenever I hear the term ‘Dragon’. That must be some past trauma! I’ll be taking my leave first. You guys can continue discussing!” An elderly warlock shouted while pressing his forehead.
Then, he stood up and staggered out.
As soon as he got out of the room, he immediately straightened his back, his legs stopped shaking, his head stopped hurting, and he was full of energy. He quickly slunk away, lest he was involved in the incident.
‘Dammit, that old fox!’ The other warlocks cursed under their breaths.
One after another, they began to pretend to be sick of various ailments.
In a short while, more than half of them had left the room. There was no way the meeting could continue.
“Sigh! I’m very sorry about that. There’s some trouble here, and we really can’t help… what trouble? Oh, we’re all old and sick. Let’s see, two of them are suffering from heart disease, there are three with high blood pressure and diabetes, and there’s another with headache and diarrhea.
“Our previous Grand Elder? It’s… not very convenient for him either.
“What? Hindustan is going? Haha, those idiots!”
They immediately ended the call.
Everyone on the Dongying side was dumbfounded.
‘Wait. Aren’t all of you cultivators? Why are you plagued with sickness?’
When the call reached Nanyang, the other party was so frightened that they immediately hung up.
They could not reach Nanyang after that.
The Dongyingese were dumbfounded once again. They did not expect that Nanyang would shut the door on them.
“It’s okay. There’s still Merrica. They’ll definitely support us.” The Minister of Defense laughed awkwardly.
Soon, the call was answered.
After explaining their situation, the person on the other end spoke very slowly.
“That… is interesting, very interesting… we already know the situation and we’re discussing it.
“I don’t know when we’ll get a result. Two to three days, at least, maybe? There’s no other way. We have to follow the procedures. Besides, many people are on vacation recently!
“That’s all, bye-bye!”
The call ended after that.
The Dongyingese were dumbfounded again.
‘Why is this different from what we expect? Europe and Merrica should hate the Dragon of Huaxia. Why aren’t they supporting our cause?
‘But in the end, only Hindustan responded.’
The Minister of Defence stood there, his face somewhat ashen.
“How many people… are coming from Hindustan?” He whispered to the person beside him.
“Many!”
He immediately became excited and said satisfactorily, “That’s alright. At least Hindustan answered our call, right? It’s better to have something than nothing! Come, let’s figure out how to kill that guy.”
They immediately began their discussions.
…
Somewhere in Dongying, Tang Hao found an empty house. He sat inside and began to meditate.
It was dark outside.
After a long time, his phone rang.
Tang Hao picked it up and looked at the screen. It was an unfamiliar Dongyingese number.
He hesitated for a while before answering it.
A familiar feminine voice came from the other end of the phone.
“You’re so amazing, my dear little brother!” On the other end of the phone, Tamamo giggled.
Her vo
ice was slightly hoarse and carried a natural charm.
Tang Hao was stunned. “It’s you! What’s the matter?”
“Don’t you miss me, my dear little brother? To think that I miss you so much!” She sounded a little resentful. “Also, you didn’t tell me that you were coming.”
Tang Hao said helplessly, “I’m here to kill someone.”
“I’m not on the list, am I?”
“No!”
Tamamo giggled and said coyly, “I knew it. Besides, you can’t bear to kill me. I’m your woman!”
Tang Hao rolled his eyes and said, “Since when? Why don’t I know about it?”
“Since that night. Isn’t that so?” Tamamo teased.
Tang Hao was instantly speechless.
The charm in Tamamo’s tone of voice faded and she became serious. “Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. There’s something urgent I have to tell you.”
Tang Hao immediately became serious too.
“The Hindustanis are here!”
“Hindustanis?” Tang Hao was surprised.
“Yes! Many of them are here, and they’re all from the previous generation. They’re at least as strong as you. One of them is even much more powerful.”
Tang Hao’s expression changed slightly.
“There will also be two Sendais each from the Amaterasu and Izumo shrines, which makes a total of five. Two of them are far stronger than you. They will ambush you at Amaterasu Shrine.
“So, you’d better stop!”
Tang Hao was silent for a moment.
‘Inviting outside help? How cunning!
‘You’re not the only one who knows how to call for help though! I’m not afraid!’
He smirked and said, “Thank you!”
Tamamo smiled and said, “I’ve risked a lot to inform you this, my dear little brother. Shouldn’t you… repay me somehow?”
Tang Hao was stunned and felt a little embarrassed. After all, she had indeed taken a great risk. Her position in Dongying would be compromised if the others found out.
“Then… what do you want? I don’t have anything!”
“Marry me!”
“Pfft!” Tang Hao almost did a spit take. “Well… that’s not possible!”
“If we’re not going to get married, how about just one night?” Tamamo said with a smile, “That’s the least I’m asking for. That’s a promise, my dear little brother!”
