Chapter 234

Emergency Convocation

After the mysterious monster let out a declarative roar, two Emperor-level monsters immediately appeared behind it—one was a colossal, eight-tentacled octopus, like a floating island, covering the sky, and the other resembled a mythical Chinese dragon, winding over a thousand meters long, its body crackling with lightning. The two Beast Emperors also let out earth-shattering roars! Boom~~ The roars formed shockwaves that spread in all directions, and the countless aquatic monsters in the lake below immediately began to advance rapidly along the river, emitting various strange sounds! They were invading the inland regions of the human world! ... Huaxia Nation, Jiangnan Base City, Yangzhou City, at Luo Feng's home. It was just past eight in the evening. On the living room sofa, Luo Feng and Xu Xin sat together, watching TV, with some fruits and snacks laid out before them. "Today, one of my young subordinates came to me again with a complaint. Although I don't particularly like hearing employees tattle, I have to say, Manager Li from our company is truly terrible at handling people! Is it really necessary to be so obvious with his flattery? It makes things difficult for me too," Xu Xin said to Luo Feng, still watching TV. "Just fire him," Luo Feng said straightforwardly. "You can't run a company so haphazardly, firing whoever you want," Xu Xin replied. "After all, Manager Li's business capabilities are quite good. I'll just have a talk with him later." "Oh, I don't understand any of that anyway." Luo Feng said casually, "By the way, my parents are coming back tomorrow." "Ah," Xu Xin paused, "What should we do then?" "What should we do? Just stay here!" Luo Feng turned to look at Xu Xin, teasing, "You're already 'mine,' so what's there to be shy about?" "What do you mean 'already yours'!" Xu Xin's eyes widened. Luo Feng burst into laughter. "You!" Xu Xin said, about to pounce on him playfully. "Wait, phone call," Luo Feng quickly called out. "Don't lie to me," Xu Xin didn't believe him. "There really is a call," Luo Feng picked up his phone from beside him, put it on speaker, and the voice immediately came through. "Hello, Luo Feng," a deep voice sounded. "Oh, Mohanderson," Luo Feng showed a slight smile, "Is there something you need?" Ice Emperor 'Mohanderson'? Xu Xin, beside him, covered her mouth in surprise, not daring to make a sound to disturb Luo Feng's conversation. Ever since the Battle of Mist Island, the Ice Emperor and Luo Feng had developed a minor animosity, and they hadn't been in contact since. Unexpectedly, today, Mohanderson, America's foremost figure and the Third Councilor, the Ice Emperor, was calling him. "It's extremely important, concerning the survival of all humanity on Earth. Get to the War God Palace immediately; all councilors, chairmen, and high-ranking government officials worldwide will be there," Mohanderson said urgently. "What is it?" Luo Feng was startled. The survival of humanity on Earth? "No time for details, I still have others to notify. Just get to the War God Palace quickly." With that, Mohanderson hung up. Indeed, for the American government to notify important figures like Luo Feng, if they had simply sent a staff member to call, Luo Feng probably wouldn't have believed it! Mohanderson's personal call, however, was very convincing. Silence fell in the living room. Luo Feng's brows furrowed. "Luo Feng, what happened?" Xu Xin was also very worried. "I don't know. I'll enter the virtual space to check. I'll tell you later," Luo Feng instructed, then went straight upstairs to the gravity room. ... The gravity room closed. In its normal state, Luo Feng only maintained 1x Earth's gravity. Luo Feng sat down cross-legged. "Babata, help me connect to the 'War God Palace' in the virtual space," Luo Feng mentally connected to his wrist space and said to Babata. "No problem!" Inside the wrist space, Babata, wearing only shorts, lay comfortably in a rocking chair, enjoying a massage from a servant, and chuckled. ... Whoosh! In the enormous room, the very one Luo Feng had stayed in during his first visit to the War God Palace, Luo Feng appeared, clad in a golden robe. "Councilor Luo Feng, please proceed immediately to the top-floor conference hall," an electronic voice echoed in the room. "Top-floor conference hall?" Luo Feng was somewhat surprised. That was the largest conference hall in the War God Palace, usually reserved for War God Palace council meetings. The fact that this gathering was being held there... clearly meant something major had happened. Luo Feng quickly left the room and headed there. On the spiral staircase, Luo Feng encountered two other councilors and also saw some Wargods in white robes. Luo Feng briefly spoke with the two councilors, but it was clear... neither of them knew what was happening, only that America had issued an urgent notification, prompting them to immediately enter the virtual space. ... In the War God Palace's top-floor conference hall, over fifty councilors in golden robes were already present, along with numerous Wargods in white robes! Moreover, among those in white robes, some were not Wargods but leaders from the five major powers, granted special authorization to enter for this occasion. These leaders might be presidents or vice-presidents, but not all of them possessed the strength of a Wargod. Normally, they wouldn't have the authority to enter, but today, they had received special authorization. "Luo Feng." "Jia Yi." Luo Feng walked over and shook hands with Jia Yi, "Do you know what's going on?" "It seems something major happened in America, but the details aren't clear," Jia Yi shook his head slightly. "However, according to the American President, the situation is extremely serious! Catastrophic. But he didn't have time to elaborate before notifying other nations." "Catastrophic?" Luo Feng's heart sank slightly. "Come on, you probably don't know many of our other Huaxia Nation leaders yet. Let's go meet them," Jia Yi pulled Luo Feng to introduce him to several high-ranking officials. More and more people filled the conference hall. The atmosphere in the entire conference hall grew solemn. In less than five minutes, all councilors were present, along with leaders from the five major powers, the HR Alliance Chairman, and others! It could be said that... in a brief moment, all the dominant, peak-level authorities on Earth had gathered here. "The First Chairman and the others have arrived." "The American President is here too." Luo Feng turned to look. Hong, Lei Shen, Mohanderson, and a group of others arrived together, including the American President. The entire conference hall fell silent. The President walked directly to the podium. "Leaders of all nations, esteemed chairmen and councilors," the dark-skinned President said with a grim expression, his voice low, "Currently, all the highest representatives on Earth are gathered here, which would normally be a grand assembly. But I must gravely inform you all... Earth's catastrophe, its doomsday, has arrived!" Everyone in the conference hall changed their expressions. A nation's president wouldn't lie to them, would he? "I cannot explain it in words; please watch this video!" the dark-skinned President said in a low voice. Whoosh! A giant screen appeared at the front of the conference hall, and a video began to play. The video began with a sunset, showing a war base calmly spanning a river. "That's the area where New York was during the Grand Nirvana period," Jia Yi whispered. "What exactly is going on?" Luo Feng frowned slightly, staring intently. On the screen. The war base was peaceful, when suddenly... a phantom burst out of the water from a distance, moving so fast it was impossible to see clearly. Only a faint black silhouette could be made out before it hovered in front of the war base! This was a mysterious monster no one present had ever seen before! Powerful hooves, a pair of massive scaled wings, a strong tail, a single horn piercing the sky! And cold, merciless dark golden eyes! This was a colossal beast, over one hundred and eighty meters long! "What kind of monster is that?" "Never seen it before!" "Judging by its length, it should be a King-level monster, right?" "A King-level monster appearing in front of a war base? Is it suicidal? The laser cannons will blast it to smithereens." The councilor powerhouses and some national leaders below whispered amongst themselves, but everyone stared at the video, eager to see what would happen next. At the same time—everyone present felt an inexplicable sense of fear upon seeing this mysterious monster, though its intensity varied. The fear in the hearts of Hong, Luo Feng, and others was very faint! This made the top-tier powerhouses like Hong, Lei Shen, and Luo Feng feel puzzled. At their level, there should be nothing on Earth that could instill fear in them. On the screen! Three dazzling beams of light instantly struck the mysterious monster, and everyone in the conference hall watched with bated breath. The light beams dissipated! "What!" "Its scales aren't even damaged?" "Impossible! Even a Beast Emperor, though capable of withstanding maximum power laser cannons, would still be injured!" The conference hall immediately erupted in an uproar! Even the calmest powerhouses, including Hong, Lei Shen, and Luo Feng, had their expressions change drastically! Under the maximum power of a laser cannon, even a Beast Emperor, or even Hong and Luo Feng, wouldn't dare claim to be completely unharmed! "Everyone, I assure you, those three laser blasts were at maximum power," the dark-skinned President said in a low voice, "Please continue watching!" Silence! Everyone continued to stare. On the screen, the mysterious monster opened its mouth, and simultaneously, the surrounding space subtly warped, visibly to the naked eye. The war base, much larger than the mysterious monster, actually floated up! It flew towards the monster's mouth, shrinking as it went, until finally, the war base became less than five meters in length and width, swallowed whole by the monster. "God!" "Impossible!" "Heavens." Even the calmest leaders, the most composed peerless powerhouses... were all stunned at this moment! This scene completely transcended the scope of human logical understanding; it was utterly inexplicable by science! A war base over five hundred meters long actually flew up and continuously shrank? How, how was this possible? The war base was eaten? "All fifty thousand soldiers inside the entire war base were eaten, not a single one survived," the dark-skinned President's low voice sounded. "However!!!" The dark-skinned President took a deep breath, "This, is only the beginning!" The dark-skinned President pointed at the mysterious monster on the screen, which was roaring with its head held high, "Led by this terrifying mysterious monster! Two Beast Emperors and countless other sea monsters, obeying its command, have already begun to attack the inland!" As he spoke, the video showed scenes of aquatic monsters frantically advancing along rivers. On the screen, the scene shifted, appearing in another location on the North American continent. The mysterious monster had actually swallowed another war base! "Irresistible!" "No matter how solid the war base, how brave the soldiers, how powerful the warriors, it simply swallowed them whole!" "A nightmare." "A disaster!" "Doomsday!!!" The dark-skinned President looked at everyone in the conference hall, but they all remained silent, not a single person spoke for a moment.
