224: There is an old saying in Longxia

Chapter 224: Dragon Xia Has an Old Saying

“Level 6 difficulty, damn it, how can it be Level 6 difficulty?”

“I’m speechless, I’m going to die today.”

“Damn it, I should have known not to be in the Imperial Capital. I just came to visit a relative!”

“For a major city as big as the Imperial Capital, with a Level 6 difficulty monster siege, how terrifying would the number of monsters be?”

“I thought today was a welfare match, but it turned out to be a death trap!”

“The Tiandao Alliance Headquarters is in the Imperial Capital, so won’t the Tiandao Alliance also be gone today?”

“Don’t worry about the Tiandao Alliance; the Professional Alliance, and the Supreme Decision-Making Center, will all be gone today!”

“If the Imperial Capital is gone, Dragon Xia will be without a leader!”

…

For a time, various complaints rose and fell.

Lu Ran listened to the commotion of the surrounding crowd, looked at Liu Xinxin and the others, and asked, “When should I make my move?”

Liu Xinxin pondered, “You can make your move when the monsters are teleported over, but it’s best to wait until all the monsters have appeared and the teleportation array disappears before acting, to clear them in batches.”

“Good!” Lu Ran nodded with a serious expression.

To be fair,

Lu Ran himself wasn’t afraid.

But it was his first time facing such a large-scale monster attack, and there were normal monsters, elites, and BOSSes—all of them!

Moreover, it wasn’t just about farming monsters.

This time, Lu Ran had to bear the responsibility of saving the Imperial Capital!

He felt somewhat like a savior.

“Just consider it getting familiar beforehand so you’ll be more at ease during the National War later.” At this moment, Yu Qingcang’s voice suddenly came from behind him.

After arranging the garrisons in the four directions, he rushed over.

Seeing the scene before him, he was also startled.

But then he immediately saw Lu Ran and felt relieved.

At the same time,

Yu Qingcang’s communicator kept vibrating.

He glanced at it; besides the four commanders distributed by the Tiandao Alliance, many high-level combat professionals from the Tiandao Alliance, or people from some major families and forces, were all seeking help from Yu Qingcang.

“What’s the use of finding me? A Level 6 difficulty monster siege, the entire Tiandao Alliance wouldn’t be enough,” Yu Qingcang muttered.

But messages from the four commanders kept coming in.

“Guild Master, we’ve seen it at the East City Gate. It’s a Level 6 difficulty monster siege. What should we do?”

“Guild Master, it’s over, it’s Level 6 difficulty; there’s no way to fight this!”

“Guild Master, personnel have been deployed, but this difficulty…”

“Guild Master, what should we do now? Should we lead a breakout?”

…

Those who could think of breaking out had some brains.

But breaking out amidst the dense monster horde of this monster siege—if they could win, breaking out would be meaningless; if they couldn't, it would be difficult to break out.

This itself was an unsolvable problem.

Yu Qingcang directly replied, “Don’t worry about it, just watch the show. A Level 6 difficulty monster siege is nothing.”

Ah?

The four commanders were stunned.

Level 6 difficulty!

The highest recorded difficulty monster siege to date was only Level 4!

This had directly skipped Level 5 difficulty and gone to Level 6 difficulty. And this was nothing?

Watch the show?

What show?

This was going to be a city massacre!

They didn’t understand, but those major forces that Yu Qingcang was too lazy to reply to were even more bewildered and panicked!

At this moment,

The color of the teleportation array finally completely solidified and then stopped rotating.

Then, shadowy monsters began to refresh within it.

“Level 60 Hell Three-Headed Dogs!”

“Damn it, what kind of monsters are these? I don’t recognize them!”

“Nonsense, who the hell has seen monsters above Level 60!”

“Damn it, it really is Level 6 difficulty. How do we fight this?”

“Whoever goes up dies?”

…

For a time, the entire scene was in chaos.

Lu Ran watched quietly, not rushing, because monsters were still continuously refreshing.

He didn’t recognize these monsters either, as they were all above Level 60.

Even wild monsters above Level 60 appeared in forbidden, undeveloped areas, so no one had seen them.

But Lu Ran could clearly see that some of the monsters had controllable prompts above their heads.

That meant many of these monsters were dark-elemental.

More and more monsters appeared, already starting to charge towards the Imperial Capital!

Many of these monsters were huge, and looking around, there were thousands of troops and horses!

The dust raised all around the Imperial Capital swept in like a storm!

Everyone’s faces turned extremely grim.

And from within the teleportation array, new monsters were still continuously emerging, with elites even starting to appear!

Lu Ran’s mind stirred.

Using Yamata no Orochi, he called Nanasheng to him.

Nanasheng had been at the Tiandao Alliance Headquarters these past few days, rarely coming out, and had no chance to come out. Lu Ran wouldn’t allow it, and she didn’t dare to run around.

Suddenly called out,

Standing on the city wall, looking at the scene outside, Nanasheng was also startled.

“Monster siege? But… why is it purple?” Nanasheng was also bewildered.

“Why can’t it be purple? Can Dragon Xia’s monster siege be the same as your Little Japan’s? Look closely, this is a Level 6 difficulty monster siege!” Lei Tai retorted directly.

It had to be Lei Tai; he didn’t understand how to be gentle with women at all.

As long as it was Little Japan, he would always retort a few words.

Nanasheng frowned slightly, looked at Lu Ran, and said, “Is purple the legendary Level 6 difficulty monster siege? The Imperial Capital can’t possibly hold it; these professionals are no match.”

“I know. With me here, there’s no problem. I called you out to prevent any accidents. I need to use Yamata no Orochi,” Lu Ran said casually.

“Okay, do you need my help?” Nanasheng asked.

Hmm?

This reaction made Lu Ran somewhat surprised.

Logically, women from Little Japan should have a great hatred for Dragon Xia.

Although she was now controlled by Lu Ran and could only be a tool, she shouldn’t be so eager to offer help, should she?

Nanasheng seemed to understand Lu Ran’s confusion.

She said lightly, “You Dragon Xia have an old saying: ‘A wise man submits to circumstances,’ and ‘A good bird chooses its tree to perch on.’ Although I am a Sakura person, Sakura is destined to perish. I want to pursue higher levels and stronger combat power. I cannot perish with Sakura.”

This means… she wants to betray?

Lu Ran looked at Nanasheng amusedly and said, “You’re quite good at choosing. Alright, then I’ll see your determination later.”

After speaking,

He looked up into the distance; elites had already refreshed.

“Lu Ran, you can make your move now,” Liu Xinxin reminded him.

“Now? But the BOSS hasn’t appeared yet,” Lu Ran asked, puzzled.

“BOSS refreshes have a delay. Level 1 difficulty has a five-minute delay, Level 2 difficulty has a ten-minute delay.”

“Level 3 and Level 4 difficulty have a fifteen-minute delay. I don’t know about Level 5 difficulty, and I don’t know about Level 6 either.”

“But most likely, it will be around half an hour.”

“Let’s deal with the monsters and elites that have appeared now. We’ll take care of the BOSS last after it comes out.”

…

So that’s how it is.

Lu Ran nodded.

Seeing that the teleportation array had indeed stopped refreshing monsters,

He then took a deep breath.

Bang!

His huge white wings spread out, instantly attracting the attention of countless desperate professionals on the surrounding city walls.
