226: Chapter 226 Sky Overlord? I can kill him alone!

Woooo!!! A shrill, piercing alarm instantly tore through the peaceful sky of Dragon City, echoing between every skyscraper and every bustling street.

Highest Alert!

This was the highest alert that had not sounded in the Eastern Region for a hundred years, signifying the arrival of a cataclysmic disaster!

"Not good!"

Inside the council hall, the atmosphere that had just eased instantly froze. Guild Master Xuanyuan Jing, Vice President Zhuge Yuan, and all the high-level members of the Dragon Radiance Guild changed expressions drastically and stood up abruptly.

"It is an Invading Monster invasion! And... it is a very powerful Invading Monster!"

Guild Master Xuanyuan Jing's voice was low, carrying a trace of imperceptible trembling. The terror of the incoming enemy far exceeded the ordinary!

The group shifted their figures and instantly appeared in the high sky outside the hall. Looking up, everyone's pupils constricted, and they gasped.

They saw that outside the indestructible Dragon-shaped barrier that had protected the Eastern Region for a hundred years, the sky had been completely dyed a deathly ink green.

Endless disaster winds howled like billions of wronged souls, condensing into a twisted and hideous giant face that covered the entire sky of the Eastern Region.

Crack—crack—!

The sound of the powerful barrier shattering was incessant. On the barrier, spiderweb-like cracks were spreading crazily at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the light was rapidly dimming, clearly on the verge of collapse.

Vice President Zhuge Yuan's face turned pale, his voice carrying unprecedented gravity: "It is the Sky Overlord! A Rank 9 World Lord BOSS on par with the West Sea Overlord! Why would it suddenly attack the Eastern Region with full force? The Great Wall barrier... is not going to hold!"

Guild Master Xuanyuan Jing's hair and beard stood on end, a look of determination erupting in his eyes. His voice was like a booming bell, transmitted through loudspeakers, instantly spreading across the entire Dragon City: "Pass on my order! The Eastern Region is entering Level 1 combat readiness!"

"All citizens, immediately follow the emergency plan and evacuate to the underground shelters in an orderly manner. No one is to be left behind!"

"All members of the Dragon Radiance Guild and the Eastern Region Guardian Legion, assemble immediately and prepare for battle!"

"We swear to coexist or perish with the Eastern Region!"

The order was issued.

The entire Eastern Region, like a precision war machine, roared into operation with unprecedented efficiency.

On the streets, although the citizens' faces showed panic, under the guidance of soldiers and volunteers, they quickly and orderly flocked to various evacuation entrances. No one was making noise, no one was fighting for priority; the century of order and trust was fully manifested at this moment.

In the sky, streams of light rose from all over Dragon City; these were the class-transferred warriors of the Dragon Radiance Guild. They wore standard equipment, their eyes resolute, quickly forming battle formations in the air, connecting into one, like a drawn sword, pointing directly at the source of the terrifying disaster winds outside the sky.

Military and civilians as one, united from top to bottom—this was the foundation of the Eastern Region for a hundred years!

Guild Master Xuanyuan Jing turned his head abruptly and looked at the calm-looking Lu Chen and the Wasteland Guardian beside him, his tone carrying earnestness:

"Young Friend Lu Chen, Old Wu! The Eastern Region is in imminent danger. We may need to borrow your strength. Otherwise, even if we fight to the death to resist, it will be difficult to keep the Eastern Region safe, and there will inevitably be heavy casualties!"

At this moment, the imperceptible golden light in Lu Chen's eyes had already receded.

The [Eye of the Ringed Heavens] had instantly seen through the details of the terrifying existence shrouding the sky.

[Name: Sky Disaster Wind Elemental Dominator · Sky Ripper · Veraphil · World Lord BOSS]

[Rank: Rank 9 LV270]

[Location: Ruins of Cloud Vortex · Sky Wind Nest (Nine-Star Hell Rank)]

It was indeed an existence on the same level as the West Sea Overlord.

Moreover, it was a more troublesome elemental Invading Monster, formless and intangible, controlling destructive wind abilities.

However, there was no ripple in Lu Chen's heart; he even wanted to laugh.

Unless a god personally arrived, on Blue Star, he no longer feared any existence!

A Rank 9 World Lord BOSS?

He hadn't gone to hunt them yet, but it had delivered itself to his doorstep.

"Senior Xuanyuan!"

Lu Chen stepped forward, his tone relaxed: "Leave this Sky Overlord to me. You only need to clear out the minor monsters it brought and protect the citizens."

"What!!!"

Once these words were spoken, not only Guild Master Xuanyuan Jing, but all the Elders and generals nearby who heard it were stunned, thinking they were having auditory hallucinations.

Punishment Elder Li Feiyu was the first to not be able to hold back, speaking urgently: "Young Friend Lu, that is the Sky Overlord, a Rank 9 World Lord BOSS that has ravaged Blue Star for decades without a single defeat. Even the leaders of the three major super guilds who went on expeditions to the Alien Monster World were helpless against it before they left. How could you possibly deal with it alone?"

"Yes! Young Friend Lu, although you are a heaven-sent Genius and your strength far exceeds your generation, the difference between a World Lord BOSS and a Rank 9 professional is like heaven and earth. You must not act on impulse!" Another Elder also hurriedly tried to persuade him.

Guild Master Xuanyuan Jing was even more earnest: "Young Friend Lu, you are the future leader of the Great Xia. You absolutely must not act on impulse. Listen to me, defend with us, temporarily avoid its sharp edge, and wait until you are in the future..."

"Enough, enough!"

The Wasteland Guardian impatiently dug his ear and interrupted: "A bunch of old antiques who have never seen the real world. If the kid Lu says he can slaughter it, he definitely can. Why the Hell are you worrying about nothing here!"

The crowd: "..."

Lu Chen smiled slightly and patted the Wasteland Guardian on the shoulder: "The Seniors are also just worried."

Lu Chen looked at Guild Master Xuanyuan Jing, his tone plain but absolutely confident: "Seniors, please set your minds at ease. I only need to take my nine main beast pets, and I can... kill it!"

"..." All the big shots stared collectively, stunned by Lu Chen's words.

Beside them, Long Aojiao's beautiful eyes shone with brilliance, and her heart uncontrollably accelerated its beating.

"He... can he really kill the Sky Overlord? Are we... really considered Geniuses of the same era?"

She muttered to herself, the remaining pride in her heart crushed to pieces, replaced by an indescribable sense of worship.

Guild Master Xuanyuan Jing looked at Lu Chen's eyes, which were as deep as a sea of stars and showed no ripples, and then glanced at the unperturbed Wilderness Guardian Wu Yanzu. He gritted his teeth and nodded heavily:

"Good! Young Friend Lu, be careful! If it cannot be done, retreat immediately! Even if all members of the Dragon Radiance Guild die in battle, we will definitely protect you!"

"Thank you, Senior!"

Lu Chen cupped his hands, a warm current surging in his heart.

This was the backbone of the Great Xia, the responsibility and integrity that Seniors of the Human Race should have!

At this moment, above in the sky, the light of the Dragon-shaped barrier was dimmed to the extreme, covered in cracks, and was about to shatter completely.

"No time to delay." Lu Chen's eyes narrowed, and he said no more.

Hum!

An endless torrent of beast shadows surged out!

The billions of beast pets did not attack, but instead turned into streams of torrents, setting up defensive formations and standing side by side with the soldiers of the Dragon Radiance Legion, forming visible, living defensive lines emitting monstrous ferocity!

The nine main beast pets surrounded Lu Chen, ready to attack the Sky Overlord at any time!

"Let's go!"

Lu Chen gave a low shout, his figure turning into a stream of light, taking the lead to soar into the sky!

The nine beast pets followed closely behind, like stars surrounding the moon, tearing through the sky, and fiercely heading towards the Sky Overlord that was about to break the barrier and descend upon the Eastern Region!

"Quick! Assist in defending all areas, protect the citizens!" Guild Master Xuanyuan Jing suppressed the raging waves in his heart and roared hoarsely.

"Yes! Swear to guard our home to the death, never take a step back!" All the soldiers of the Dragon Radiance Legion let out a thunderous roar, the sound waves gathering and rushing straight into the clouds, merging with the murderous aura of the billions of beast pets.

Above the Eastern Region, layers of colorful defensive shields lit up. Countless professional warriors gripped their weapons tightly, their eyes fixed on the barrier that was about to break, and watched that figure that was the first to go against the current—aloof yet standing tall.

Lu Chen, alone, with nine beasts, went straight to strike the Sky Overlord!
