Chapter 188: Vol2 Ch86: The disasters
Negary had managed to discover a few things about the ancient era of this world from its archeological records.
This world’s archeological society believed that before humans were born, there was another sentient race who ruled over the world.
However, history had already been cut-off, which resulted in most of that era being a complete mystery. The only thing that could be confirmed was that a certain war caused huge geological changes.
The archeological society of this world came up with countless theories, while Negary simply used the formula and current coordinates provided to him of the other world to calculate, thus finding out that the time of the war was exactly when the two worlds intersected for the third time.
A war had broken out between these two worlds, this was Negary’s conjecture, which meant that his treatment when he travelled to that world through the [Otherworld Invasion] Authority would be a mystery.
At the same time, Negary didn’t really have much of a choice, he only had a single set of coordinates of another world, he could only use it.
Negary looked up at a dragon flying in the sky, despite the fact that Negary’s current foundation was based on Soul’s Blood, which was mutated from Dragon’s Blood, this was actually the first time he had ever seen a real dragon.
The world continued to change, the Progenitor Dragon’s [Dracotongue] attack only represented the start of the invasion, causing the world barrier to grow extremely weakened, followed by the New Deity’s power permeating into this world.
This power was like that of an intense solar ray, causing countless electronic implements to explode, and that was only just the first wave of the New Deity’s power.
The New Deity had the title of ‘Sun God’, so the power he exuded had the same explosive effects as a solar storm, if this power was left to continue ravaging the world, humanity’s communication networks would be thoroughly destroyed, and the inability to transfer information in an age of mass information was nothing short of a disaster.
However, this world was prepared for it in the form of the [Solar Storm] Disaster King, Xue Xin Yun. Right as she noticed this power, she began using her Authority to counteract its effects, through three cycles of war, they had already gotten used to the tricks and techniques that the other used.
As she held the explosive solar flares under control, Xue Xin Yun’s expression suddenly changed and leapt to one side, avoiding the fireballs that came flying towards her.
Numerous winged invaders circled around in the sky, tossing fireballs towards Xue Xin Yun one after another as they attempted to stop her from exercising her Authority, causing her to focus more of her efforts on evasion and less on offense.
They were the traitors of this world. Having received the power of the New Deity and Progenitor Dragon, they were no longer humans. From the moment that they used this power, they would permanently transform into flaming dragonewts, then further infused with the twisted power of the Black Abyss, which gave them the appearance similar to that of devils.
Rather, dragons and devils were originally related to one another, numerous places used the same word to describe both dragons and devils. The fireballs they were firing from their hands were a gift from the New Deity, so even a Disaster King wouldn’t find it comfortable to be struck by that.
Xue Xin Yun wasn’t a warrior, she could only marginally protect herself against the horde of pursuing devils.
“Euler! Euler! Euler!” an inexplicable battle cry resounded, followed by a flying axe that came howling in the wind. The axe gave off a bright red glow as it directly struck the body of a devil, the [War] Disasforce within instantly destroying his body.
Alkman leapt into the sky, his body clad in a crimson glow as he grabbed the leg of a devil and exerted his strength. The other party could only utter a surprised yell as they were pulled down.
Using both his arms and legs, Alkman restrained the devil’s movements, then swiftly shifted his body so that the devil was under him when they crashed to the ground. With a swift punch, he split open the devil’s head before swinging the devil’s body by his tail to block the incoming fireballs.
With a swipe of his hand, his beloved axe had perfectly returned.
Alkman’s wrinkled, aged face slowly regained its youth, and the battlefield was his territory. While uttering inexplicable mad battle cries, he excitedly leapt towards the devils, regardless if they were from the Divine race or Dragon race, he had full confidence in being able to defeat them.
Naturally, The [War] Authority would only exert its full power in a war, Alkman had become the manifestation of an unbeatable war god, slaying all his enemies with his axe.
However, the invasion wouldn’t halt with only his interference alone, as a gigantic dragon claw broke through space to reveal itself above the atmosphere, a single scale on the claw appeared to be as large as an entire residential district, while the gaps between the scales seemed like a wide road.
『 Kielit! 』 the ancient [Dracotongue] resounded once again, gathering intense power over the dragon’s claw.
The power gathered in the huge claw was like that of a celestial body, interfering with the Earth’s magnetic field and rotation, the [Planetary Core’s Shift] disaster was brought about by the immense power of the Progenitor Dragon.
Like a chain reaction, [Planetary Core’s Shift] then caused [Continental Sinking], the stability of the ever-shifting tectonic plates of the planet was disrupted, causing them to crash into one another, the horizon itself was rising as a huge volume of seawater started flowing into the land.
The world-class disasters of [Continental Sinking] and [Great Flood] both erupted at once.
The Disaster King of [Planetary Core’s Shift], Yake Toth, propped himself up with his walking cane and started coughing dryly, his Authority sprang into action, isolating the magnetic forces that interfered with the Earth’s magnetic field, allowing the planet to resume its rotation.
Seven also gritted her teeth as she used her own Authority to stop the [Continental Sinking], while Fang Shu Nan was also using his [Great Flood] Authority to put a stop to these disasters.
They weren’t doing this because they wanted to take care of the people’s lives during an otherworldly invasion. If they could push back the invasion by sacrificing 90% of the world’s population, the D.E.R division board of directors would gladly do it.
They were putting so much effort into stopping these disasters because these disasters would cause the foundation of the planet to falter, which would make it difficult for the world to exert its power.
Seemingly noticing that the disasters it brought about had been put under control, the giant dragon claw fully unleashed the power in its grasp. That power started to converge and descended like a giant meteorite.
This was completely different from the miniature asteroids that Fang Ze summoned in the past, as it contained enough power to truly destroy the entire planet, once it crashed down, at least half the surface of the Earth would be plowed away.
Fang Ze uttered a loud shout as he raised his hand, retaliating against the descending power in the sky with his Authority.
From the looks of it, the disasters caused by the New Deity and Progenitor Dragon’s invasion were being handled very well, but this scene of world-ending carnage had caused the originally unstable societal order to completely collapse.
However, a paralyzed woman in a wheelchair then reached out her hand, the panicking mobs all over the world who were about to throw their rationality away swiftly regained a sense of clarity from this power.
This woman was Ye Kong’s colleague who pursued him during the mass collapse of buildings in the 5th domain, Qin Ying. At the time, either Ye Kong had held back or she had been lucky, but his gunshots didn’t manage to kill her. On the contrary, she had inherited Ye Kong’s [Order Collapse] Authority from her originally mundane Authority.
