68: Will the sky eventually fall?

The protective shield is the city's lifeline.

In this world overrun by monsters, without a Formation Master to maintain the city's defenses, ordinary people would have no way to survive in such a perilous world.

The moment Kyoto City's protective shield shattered, countless Void monsters appeared, bringing dark evil light as they descended from the sky, rushing towards the city at an astonishing speed.

Flesh, human flesh, was naturally a delicacy for Void monsters.

"How dare you!"

A deafening sound echoed throughout Kyoto.

A golden giant appeared in the sky, intending to resist the invasion of the Void monsters.

This was Xia Dongliu's skill, and at the same time, the high-ranking leaders of Shengjing University also launched their attacks to prevent the Void monsters from entering the urban area.

"People of Shengjing, you cannot stop us!"

Standing on the head of a Void Giant Whale was a hideous monster, radiating a strange aura.

It wore a purple Spell robe, covered in runes.

Beneath its feet, countless Void Worms shrieked excitedly.

"Dongliu, be careful, he is a Void Prophet."

"It's fine, I can drive him away."

"Quickly notify the City Guard and Formation Masters to minimize civilian casualties."

"Don't worry, it's already arranged."

As they spoke, the golden giant that Xia Dongliu had transformed into slapped the Void Giant Whale.

The Void Giant Whale had just crashed into the protective shield and had no time to react, being directly slapped away and falling heavily into the wilderness.

"You underestimate me too much, I have a Spell shield, immune to all Spells."

"You also underestimate me too much, my attacks are not just Spells."

With a wave of its giant hand, the golden giant instantly grabbed the Void Prophet's body.

Countless Void Worms leaped onto the giant hand, tearing and biting frantically.

However, the golden giant paid no heed, gripping even harder, intending to crush the Void Prophet to death.

The Void Prophet let out a wild laugh, "This isn't my main body, you can kill it as you please."

"But if you kill me, can you kill the countless Void armies?"

"Haha..."

"The earth will eventually vanish, the oceans will eventually dry up, the firmament will eventually fall... and we will all arrive."

"Bang!"

Xia Dongliu could no longer tolerate the Void Prophet's nonsense and directly crushed the opponent.

At this moment, other majestic figures also appeared above Kyoto City; all of them were big shots, including the City Guard Commander, Imperial Guard General, and Dragon Kingdom's God of War...

Their figures were imposing, like guardian deities, protecting the capital of the Dragon Kingdom, Kyoto City.

"I didn't expect those Void monsters to invade at this time."

"They're all curs, they haven't gained an advantage in hundreds of years of fighting, and now they're stirring up trouble again."

"Today is the college entrance exam, what were they thinking coming to die at this time?"

One of the majestic figures checked the situation within the city; fortunately, they discovered it in time, and the citizens of Kyoto were not affected.

"No, the Void monster offensive here isn't that strong, could it be that other cities have also suffered Void invasions?"

"News has come from the Prophet of Shengjing University; this Void invasion, Shengjing City is just the weakest point, the college entrance exam venues in other provinces are the primary invasion targets."

"What? Are they trying to destroy our Human Race Prodigies? Quickly send reinforcements."

"All the Gods of War have already gone to the provincial capitals, but it will take time; they should make it in time."

At this moment, at the Xijiang Province college entrance exam site.

The Great Examiners, who were about to announce the results of the fifth round of exams, suddenly received news.

"Void invasion... how is that possible!"

"Damn it, there are tens of thousands of college candidates here, quickly notify the City Guard."

"It's over, it seems like it's too late."

As they spoke, the ground suddenly experienced a huge tremor, the vibration came from above, not from the ground, but from the impact of something in the sky hitting the city's defenses.

Immediately after, an invisible shockwave propagated downwards from above the protective shield.

Everyone near the exam venue was shaken dizzy.

"What's going on?"

"An earthquake? Why do I feel like a loud noise is coming from the sky."

"Oh my god, look quickly, there's a huge hole in the protective shield in the sky."

"Isn't that ghostly, there's clearly nothing in the sky, so how can there be a big hole in the protective shield?"

"I know, I know, I heard that when Void monsters don't actively show themselves, they are invisible to the naked eye, could it be a Void invasion?"

"What an international joke, it's been hundreds of years, do you still think it's the Early Stage of the All peopleAwakening era, still Void invasion..."

People outside the exam venue were still unaware of the impending danger, while the Great Examiners inside the venue were already sweating with anxiety.

Immediately, all candidates participating in the fifth stage, regardless of whether they had completed the exam or not, were forcibly withdrawn, and their scores were calculated based on their points at the time of withdrawal.

At the same time, a majestic voice began to spread inside and outside the exam venue.

"Everyone present, listen carefully, Void monsters are about to invade, we are now entering an emergency combat state."

"All candidates, please enter the air-raid shelter of the exam venue to take cover. Support has already been sent from above, and we believe it will end soon."

As the words fell.

Everyone inside and outside the exam venue clearly heard what the Great Examiner said.

The 169 candidates who were forcibly teleported out of the exam were now gathered at the Trial dungeon entrance, seeing the air-raid shelter not far from the giant sports field.

Without a word, they quickly started running.

In such a critical moment, preserving oneself was paramount.

"Brother Xia Qi, hurry up!"

Among the crowd, only Xia Qi stood blankly in place, staring at the sky. Yun Qingyue saw him, quickly grabbed Xia Qi's hand, and intended to take Xia Qi with her to escape to the air-raid shelter.

"You go first, I'll be right there."

Xia Qi, feeling somewhat touched, still released Yun Qingyue's hand.

"But... the Great Examiner said it's very dangerous now, we must quickly hide in the air-raid shelter."

Yun Qingyue was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, but no matter how she persuaded him, Xia Qi just stood foolishly in place without moving.

"You take care of yourself first, I'll come find you right away, be good."

Xia Qi forced a smile, then patted Yun Qingyue's head, saying gratefully.

"Alright then, I'll go first, you must follow quickly."

Yun Qingyue's pretty face flushed, she looked back at Xia Qi, then gritted her teeth and left.

At this moment, Xia Qi once again turned his gaze to the sky.

He saw it, he saw it all...

Above the protective shield, the giant whale he had seen in West River City was violently crashing its massive head.

Around the giant whale, dozens of huge tentacles, over a hundred meters tall, also swung and attacked.

Behind them, countless dense purple insects emitted excited glows, gnawing at the edge of the protective shield.

And those indescribably strange creatures.

They were eyeing the people in the city with predatory gazes.
