135: Chapter 135 One Man Stabilizes a City, A Spark Ignites a Prairie Fire!

Afterward, Lu Chen dispersed his army of over 20 million beast pets to wipe out all the Invading Monsters around Feng City and dispatched beast pets to guard all the vortex entrances of the invading secret realms in the Feng City area.

With this, Feng City would no longer be easily disturbed by Invading Monsters.

Lu Chen's epoch-making feat left all the soldiers and civilians of Feng City dumbfounded.

They had never imagined that someone could protect an entire major city with their own power alone!

This brought an inexplicable sense of peace to the previously terrified populace; even the children who had been crying incessantly stopped their wailing and revealed rare, innocent smiles.

In an instant, the oppression and aura of death in Feng City dissipated.

All the tense predecessors relaxed their bodies.

Countless people gathered at the edge of the city, looking at the sky, the ground, and the rivers, all filled with Lu Chen's beast pets, feeling an unprecedented sense of peace.

"Mayor Ye, from now on, whenever there is a mission, just let me handle it alone. You should focus on handling the relocation affairs!"

At this moment, Lu Chen no longer considered himself an outsider but a part of this space-time. On his shoulders, he had already shouldered the responsibility of the predecessors, and the seed of the Legacy had already sprouted deep within Lu Chen's heart.

"Good!" Mayor Ye patted Lu Chen's shoulder heavily, as if he could entrust the heavy responsibility of protection to Lu Chen.

The mission continued!

[Ding! Round 5: Sneak Attack — B+ Rank, underground Invading Monsters launched a surprise attack, but were instantly detected by Lu Chen and annihilated in the darkness!]

[Ding! Round 6: Commander's Raid — A Rank, the elite enemy army's night raid still could not escape Lu Chen's Heavenly Eye, and they were wiped out without a sound!]

[Ding! Round 7: Candle of Hope — A+ Rank, a BOSS blocked the road in the Northern Territory, Lu Chen arrived in person and destroyed it with one strike!]

Several consecutive rounds were all pushed through by Lu Chen with absolute strength!

[Ding, because you have completely controlled the Feng City area, Round 8 and Round 9 missions cannot be triggered and will be skipped; the Round 10 BOSS is approaching!]

After hearing the mission rule prompt, Lu Chen was stunned for a moment and opened the mission panel.

Under normal circumstances, the Round 8 mission was for the outer defense line of Feng City to completely collapse, forcing a retreat to the inner city. The mission objective was to cover the rear and escort the wounded soldiers and civilians to retreat.

The Round 9 mission was the inner city defense battle, where the objective was to stop the Invading Monsters from breaking through the defense line until Mayor Ye completed the final evacuation preparations and everyone migrated.

Now, because Lu Chen had protected Feng City so that it was impregnable, the originally scheduled "city falls and people die" tragedies of Rounds 8 and 9 could not happen at all!

The mission rules were broken by his own power!

The whole city rejoiced, and the preparations for migration proceeded calmly.

These days, laughter returned to Feng City. All the NPC predecessors could sleep soundly and complete the migration preparations with peace of mind.

Suddenly! A spatial rift appeared in the sky.

A large number of flying Invading Monsters appeared, resembling bats, all with blood-colored skin. Among them, the largest six-winged blood bat was a Tier 5 World Lord BOSS, at least several dozen meters in size—a colossal beast.

But! The guards and soldiers of Feng City all looked relaxed.

Simply because! They now had a peerless and invincible Beast Tamer protecting them.

Everyone looked at Lu Chen, who was standing on the roof of the municipal building.

"Keke! Eat all the Human Race in the city!"

The six-winged blood bat World Lord BOSS was the first to swoop down fiercely.

Screech! Third Brother, the Molten Abyss Bloodflame Sparrow, let out a sharp cry and soared into the sky, trailing long flames behind it.

Immediately after, a million Flame Falcons, a million Iron-Claw Eagles, and a million Thunderbirds took to the sky together.

In an instant, there was no shadow of the blood bats left in the sky; it was completely covered by Lu Chen's beast pets.

"!!!"

The six-winged blood bat World Lord BOSS was instantly dumbfounded and slapped itself hard to see if it was hallucinating.

It hurt! It wasn't a hallucination!

Then these three million flying beasts with attributes not lower than its own were real!

Damn! Who is so shameless?

I only brought tens of thousands of subordinates here, and you are summoning three million flying beast pets? And they all have World Lord-level attributes?

"You are cheating and being unreasonable!!!"

It roared in terror.

Unfortunately, Lu Chen would not discuss the principle of fairness with it.

I have the strength! I will crush you!

Not convinced? You can also summon a million Invading Monster subordinates.

Rumble! Three million beast pets surged into the sky, and in an instant, not even a scrap of the tens of thousands of blood bats remained. Unfortunately, these were all Invading Monsters from the old space-time; devouring their flesh and blood did not increase Evolution Points.

As Lu Chen waved his hand, the million flying beast pets dispersed, and the sky returned to clarity.

At this time, Ye Qingkong had also finished all the preparations for the city-wide migration ahead of schedule, and hundreds of thousands of civilians had already begun to set off in an orderly manner.

"Little Brother Lu, thank you for your assistance. Only then could we successfully complete the migration work without any loss of civilians. On behalf of all the people of Feng City, I extend my highest gratitude to you!"

"Mayor Ye, there is no need for this. I am also a son of the Great Xia; this is what I should do."

At this moment, Lu Chen's face was filled with worry, simply because the Round 10 mission was completed, which meant that the subsequent migration of the Feng City predecessors had nothing to do with him.

"Mayor Ye, is there an 11th round escort mission? Let me escort you to migrate to the Northern Territory war zone!"

But Ye Qingkong shook his head and smiled, saying: "Each generation has its own mission."

Hearing this, Lu Chen's pupils constricted: "Mayor Ye, could it be that you—"

Ye Qingkong nodded: "Child, I know you do not belong to this space-time. Your power exceeds our imagination; it is something that could not have been born in our era."

"It seems that our sacrifices and efforts... were not in vain..."

"Remember... true protection... is never about guarding one place or one city, but letting 'Hope' live on, carrying the fire named 'Legacy'... and walking forward. No matter how dark the road ahead is, as long as the spark is not extinguished, the Great Xia... will eventually welcome the dawn!"

"Child, go back. You have done very well. For the road ahead, we must walk it ourselves."

Ye Qingkong mounted his steed and set off.

Senior Wang Rui followed by Ye Qingkong's side and waved goodbye to Lu Chen: "Captain Lu Chen, it is an honor to have fought side by side with you these days. If there is an afterlife, I will fight side by side with you again!"

The main force began to set off!

Lu Chen rode the Calamity Flame Spirit Skeleton King to follow, and the millions of beast pets continued to escort them.

But after traveling a hundred miles, Lu Chen and his beast pets received a rule prompt: [Ding, cannot continue moving forward!]

Helpless, Lu Chen could only keep letting the Calamity Flame Spirit Skeleton King ascend, watching the predecessors migrate. Lu Chen noticed that many new Invading Monsters had targeted the main force, and a bloody battle broke out.

Damn! Lu Chen clenched his fists, only able to watch helplessly from where he stood as people kept falling; most of them were still just the younger generation!

This was the history that had long been destined.

[Ding, congratulations on completing the Tier 6 advancement mission and receiving a 100-point perfect score!]

[Ding, congratulations on obtaining the Legendary Flying Ability; flying does not consume Mana, and the speed is comparable to a Legendary-grade riding pet!]

[Ding, because you perfectly completed the 10-round mission, you have obtained the unique highest reward — Power of Prairie Dragon Fire!]

[Ding, you have obtained the fixed rewards for the Tier 6 advancement mission: Gold Coins + 4.8 million, Reputation + 4.8 million, All Attributes + 1500, Tier 6 LV15 Legendary Equipment, LV6 Experience Orb]

Golden light poured into his body, and his heroic spirit soared to the heavens!

At this moment, he seemed unchanged, but the fire of the Legacy was already burning in his heart.
