262: Chapter 263 Lin Muyang: You came, and you think you can leave?

How fast can Mythical-grade Demonic Creatures move?

For ordinary people, and even for most high-level Class Transferees, the answer to this question might be beyond imagination.

If a group of ready-to-strike Mythical-grade Demonic Creatures locks onto a human target ten kilometers away, the time it takes for them to cross that distance when they actually launch their attack might be extremely short—almost instantaneous for those with dull senses.

Therefore, when the Ice-Fire Heavenly Demon Turtle, Decaying Wood Divine Crocodile, and Two-Headed Sky-Burning Bird—these three major mythic grade clans—rioted simultaneously and headed toward the core areas of the Xia Kingdom, it triggered comprehensive alarms and massive chaos across the Xia Kingdom, from the supreme command headquarters to the frontline outposts, almost immediately.

Fortunately, the Xia Kingdom has always maintained the highest level of monitoring over its national borders, especially coastal areas and regions where spatial weak points might exist, never relaxing its vigilance due to the relative stability of the domestic situation.

For known, threatening Mythical-grade Demonic Creatures clans across the globe, the Xia Kingdom's intelligence agencies have established basic files and a certain degree of remote surveillance systems.

Although it is impossible to achieve 100% real-time monitoring for those clans whose habitats are far away or that have strong concealment abilities, once they begin large-scale, organized abnormal movements, the psionic sensor arrays, satellite monitoring, and lurking reconnaissance units spread everywhere can always capture the signs at the first opportunity.

Precisely because of this, in Jingdu City and Tianhai City, the expected primary target areas, the top powerhouses belonging to the Xia Kingdom's military and the National Defense Bureau were able to complete emergency assembly and stand ready within an extremely short time after the invasion began.

On the coastline, psionic shield generators were running at full power, various heavy fortifications were activated, and Class Transferees quickly entered combat positions according to the rehearsal plan, the air filled with the solemnity and murderous atmosphere of an impending great war.

However, when the alarm of the Two-Headed Sky-Burning Bird clan clearly invading toward Zhongnan City also arrived, the atmosphere at the Xia Kingdom's command headquarters became even heavier.

The domestic forces available that could face a mythic grade clan head-on were limited; dealing with invasions from two directions simultaneously was already the limit, and the third direction pointed directly at the Eternal Garden, where Lin Muyang's foundation lay.

They simply could not spare enough manpower to form an effective defensive line.

Almost at the same time as confirming the target of the Two-Headed Sky-Burning Bird, the supreme command headquarters directly notified Lin Muyang, who was in the territory of the Six-Eyed Wizard Clan, through an encrypted line about this emergency.

Lin Muyang's reply was concise and calm: "No need to worry."

His reason was simple: in Zhongnan City and around the Eternal Garden, the young ladies under his command had already been deployed.

Moreover, after learning that Jingdu City and Tianhai City were attacked simultaneously, Lin Muyang also additionally indicated that he would send some personnel to support these two locations.

After receiving Lin Muyang's reply, many people in the Xia Kingdom's command headquarters were filled with doubts and uncertainty.

Did Lin Muyang's summons really have the ability to single-handedly resist an entire mythic grade Two-Headed Sky-Burning Bird clan?

They needed to guard the Eternal Garden while repelling the threat from the sky.

And on top of that, could they still have the spare capacity to divide troops to support two other distant battlefields that were also being attacked by Mythical-grade Demonic Creatures clans?

Voices of doubt inevitably appeared in the emergency meeting.

Some more conservative high-level officials raised questions, believing that pinning all hopes on Lin Muyang alone and his summons carried too much risk.

But the cruel reality was right in front of them; facing the invasion of three major mythic grade clans simultaneously was a huge crisis sufficient to shake the foundation of the nation.

The existing conventional forces of the Xia Kingdom could barely resist two of the routes, which was already not easy, and they were completely unable to attend to the third.

Even if they knew clearly in their hearts at this moment that this must be the American Empire playing tricks behind the scenes, there was absolutely no possibility of implementing immediate retaliation.

The top priority was to hold the territory and resist these ferocious monsters in front of them.

For the overall defense system of the Xia Kingdom, the invasion of a complete Mythical-grade Demonic Creatures clan was enough to put huge pressure on an entire battle line, requiring massive resources and top combat power to deal with.

It must be known that whether it was the Ice-Fire Heavenly Demon Turtle or the Decaying Wood Divine Crocodile, they were powerful clans that had existed in the deep sea for many years.

When they were first recorded more than twenty years ago, their average level might have been around two hundred, but after such a long period of reproduction and evolution, terrifying individuals with levels exceeding two hundred and seventy had long appeared in the clans, and their strength and threat level were no longer comparable.

Outside Haibin City, at the core of the Six-Eyed Wizard Clan territory.

Lin Muyang, Xu Ruohan, and the Sword Saint, who had not yet left, all learned about the drastic changes happening in the Xia Kingdom through their respective channels.

Lin Muyang himself and Su Daji, who was accompanying him, both appeared quite calm, even somewhat too relaxed.

Because they knew deeply that with the power Lin Muyang currently possessed, these seemingly vast invasions of Mythical-grade Demonic Creatures clans were not unsolvable problems.

But Marianne, who had just surrendered not long ago, turned pale instantly.

She suddenly knelt on one knee in front of Lin Muyang, her voice carrying a trace of imperceptible trembling: "My Lord... I am very sorry. I was completely unaware of this plan and failed to warn you in advance..."

As an important figure of the former American Empire, even though she had sworn allegiance, she still felt strong anxiety and unease facing such an aggressive action by her motherland that endangered her new master's home.

"Get up, this matter has nothing to do with you."

Lin Muyang reached out to help her up, his tone without much fluctuation.

Through some previous observations and judgments, he believed that Marianne was indeed unaware of this matter.

Xu Ruohan glanced at Marianne, then looked at Lin Muyang, and tentatively suggested: "Since the situation is urgent, should we let her accompany us and rush to the nearby coast of Tianhai City first to assist in blocking the Decaying Wood Divine Crocodile clan? Having an extra force is always good."

The reaction of the old general, the Sword Saint, was much more direct.

Upon receiving the news, he cupped his fists at Lin Muyang in a hurry: "Kid Lin, you handle the things here, I'll go to the frontline first! Jingdu City cannot be lost!"

Before the words fell, a majestic momentum rose from his body, and his figure turned into a stream of light, speeding toward the northeast, heading straight for the Jingdu City coastal defense line.

Lin Muyang did not stop the Sword Saint.

The old man cared about the country, and rushing to the frontline at this moment was his duty and obligation.

But he waved his hand at Xu Ruohan's suggestion: "Senior Xu, you don't need to rush either. I have already arranged things over there, there will be no problems."

"But..."

Xu Ruohan looked at the information constantly refreshing on the communicator, showing that the battle was becoming increasingly intense, and her brows were tightly locked.

She hesitated for a moment, but still conveyed another idea that had just come from the command headquarters: "There is another voice in the command headquarters. They analyzed that the sudden large-scale invasion of these mythic grade clans without warning might have been misled or utilized some misunderstanding, such as their cubs being captured into our country. Their idea is that if we can find a way to clarify the misunderstanding, perhaps we can guide these monsters to turn their spears and pursue the real culprit. Some even suggested that they hope you can use the Six God Clan you just subdued... They belong to the same mythic grade clan, perhaps they can communicate with the invaders and persuade them."

After listening to Xu Ruohan's retelling, Lin Muyang slowly shook his head, a flash of coldness in his eyes: "The idea is correct, but it is too idealistic and too passive to execute. These monsters, since they have already stepped onto our territory, shown hostility, and caused threats, why let them come and go as they please and leave safely?"

He paused, his voice steady but carrying unquestionable power: "Since they are here, then don't leave. The dignity of the nation cannot be violated. As for the culprit behind the scenes... they naturally cannot escape either, I will settle the account with them slowly."

Xu Ruohan was still extremely anxious, as casualties could occur on the frontline every second.

But seeing Lin Muyang so calm and composed, as if everything was under control, she forcibly suppressed the chaos in her heart and chose to believe in this young man who had created miracles repeatedly.

She nodded and decided to stay temporarily, accompanying Lin Muyang to wait for the Six God Clan priest to complete the skill book conversion ceremony.

During their conversation, the mythic grade Six-Eyed Wizard priest had been standing quietly on the side, the light in its six eyes slightly flickering.

Just after their clan formally expressed submission to Lin Muyang, Lin Muyang activated an Aura specifically for translating languages, a wide-area Aura that allowed barrier-free communication between different language races.

The priest was now able to clearly understand the Xia Kingdom language spoken by Lin Muyang and the others.

Therefore, the Six God Clan priest roughly understood: The Xia Kingdom was being attacked by three different Mythical-grade Demonic Creatures clans at the same time!

And this young human Class Transferee in front of it, whom it deeply revered, seemed not to take those three threatening enemies of the same level seriously at all?

Isn't this too exaggerated?

The priest was secretly suspicious in its heart.

It couldn't help but recall a moment ago, when Lin Muyang just covered them with a skill, except for a few old guys like them who managed to resist the control effect by virtue of strong mental power and special treasures, the entire clan of thousands of members instantly lost control of their bodies, like marionettes.

This kind of incredible, large-scale mandatory control ability was enough to make it feel shocked and fearful.

An existence possessing such bizarre and unpredictable abilities, its true combat power is probably absolutely not to be underestimated, right?

Of course, the priest had not seen Lin Muyang fight with its own eyes, so it still held strong curiosity about his specific combat style and destructive power.

At this moment, the clan was not monolithic, and there were still a few boss-level leaders who were forced to bow and surrender due to the pressure of the entire clan being controlled, and they might not necessarily have other thoughts.

But if... if Lin Muyang could really do it, and quickly clear or repel the three invading Mythical-grade Demonic Creatures clans through the summons he called...

What would that mean?

That would mean that the comprehensive strength Lin Muyang possessed was not just relying on special abilities to control them; his frontal combat ability was also enough to form an overwhelming advantage over their Six God Clan!
