Chapter 1116: Chapter 1086: Unusual Phenomenon on Dragon Island
As players from battle zones around the world focus their attention on the magical war in Ueno City between the He Clan and the Demon Race.
Meanwhile, on Lin Yi’s side.
In contrast to the clamor and rumble of warfare, it seems exceptionally quiet.
On Dragon Island, you can’t even sense any change brought about by the magical war.
All the dragons and players are minding their own tasks, unaffected in any way.
If it weren’t for some players’ livestreams and the heated discussions on forums, you wouldn’t even know that there’s a battle for survival involving millions of indigenous people happening in Ueno City’s He Clan battle zone.
The main reason for this outcome is that players haven’t realized the impact of this event.
Or maybe it’s because this event hasn’t happened to them, many are yet to feel the urgency faced by the He Clan players.
When the time arrived at 9:00 AM, Jade Qilin Ian suddenly yawned idly next to Lin Yi’s ear:
"Could it be that the kid’s too scared to come?"
"It’s so boring here."
Perhaps due to Lin Yi’s recent stint in the Nine Netherworld.
Even after comfortably spending a few days in an Earth villa, Jade Qilin’s behavior had started resembling that of an Earthling more than a Holy Beast from Nine Netherworld.
Yet, Lin Yi didn’t pay heed to Jade Qilin’s complaints and instead was checking the resurrection progress of the Dragon God’s racial task:
[Dragon Race] Guardian Task
Task Objective: Resurrect Nidhogg
Task Requirements: Dragon Crystal: 45/100 billion; Awakening Stone: 31/100 billion; Demon Core: 22/100 billion; Heart of the Demon Lord: 0/1
It had been barely a week since this task was announced.
Seeing these progress updates, Lin Yi himself was quite surprised.
At this rate, in about four weeks or roughly a month, the materials needed for the task would be practically gathered.
This prompted Lin Yi to marvel inwardly: ’No doubt this is a world task faced by battle zones worldwide.’
Currently, only the Dragon Race guardian task has the fastest progress on Lin Yi’s side.
Next is the Winged Race’s, followed by the Titan Race’s.
Lastly, within the Hua Country War Zone, are the Elf Race’s and Cyclops Race’s.
Although the Dragon Race guardian task is the fastest, Lin Yi was not even slightly pleased at this moment.
According to Yamada Miki, if the resurrection is only a soulless body of the Dragon God, clearly nobody would wish to see such an outcome.
Regardless if it’s the Hundred Races or Isabelle, what they needed was a flesh-and-blood Dragon God, not a soulless Dragon God.
If this is indeed the case, then everything done previously would lose its proper meaning.
Simultaneously, one month from today.
With both the Demon King and Demon Lord joining the battle, it will then be the greatest test for the players.
Lin Yi instinctively knew that by then, practically all main city’s battlefields would gradually fall to the invaders.
The Demon Race’s invasion of the Rafam Continent is an unavoidable, inevitable fact.
And that time will be a pivotal period when the Hundred Races and players unite to resist the Demon Race.
As the strongest fighting force of the Hundred Races, Lin Yi naturally would not stand idly by and watch all this turn to ruin.
Because at that time, the protectors of each race will serve as the strongest buttress between the Hundred Races and players.
Thinking about these, Lin Yi began to mock himself:
’Cursed with the hero’s disease despite lacking a hero’s destiny.’
To be honest, these matters don’t relate much to Lin Yi.
If these were set aside, given Lin Yi’s current strength and capability, he could easily lead a group living a carefree life.
No need to constantly ponder this and that.
Lin Yi couldn’t quite recall when, but somehow, unknowingly, he had intertwined his fate with that of the Hundred Races.
Perhaps it was when the Elf Race’s Great Elder bestowed the title of Elf King onto him, along with the mission to revitalize the Elf Race?
Or was it when he became the Master of the Floating City and naturally became the Saint Master of the Hundred Races...
At this moment, the mountain wind rustling Lin Yi’s robe, he suddenly said:
"He’s here."
Jade Qilin Ian snapped awake, turning over:
"Where?"
Then promptly leaping off Lin Yi’s shoulder to the ground.
During this process, its physique gradually became as big as a lion, then it stood vigilantly beside Lin Yi.
Elsewhere.
Ai Wen instinctively clutched Zhang Xinying’s elbow, her small face overwhelmed with tension.
This ’Divine Hand’ from the previous era feared by all, at this moment looked more like an innocent lamb.
Perhaps she knew from the beginning what she would be facing soon.
Yet, when faced with the moment, her heart still inevitably brimmed with nervousness and worry.
Maybe this was her first time encountering top-tier confrontation in such manner.
Whether it’s the now transcendent Feng Hua or the previously surpassed Satan J topping the World Power Ranking, they were figures beyond Ai Wen’s grasp until now.
For any ordinary college student suddenly thrust into such situations, not feeling nervous is almost impossible.
And aside from being nervous now, Ai Wen was most concerned about failing Feng Hua’s commission.
This was also the first time she felt inadequately confident about her abilities.
Fortunately, Zhang Xinying was present.
Through brief exchanges earlier, Zhang Xinying quickly gained Ai Wen’s favor.
Before long, Zhang Xinying warmly reassured the still-college-going girl beside her:
"Relax, it’s alright."
Soon, Yamada Miki stood atop a jet-black Netherworld Tiger at the cave’s entrance, playfully remarking to Lin Yi:
"Didn’t expect you to arrive so early."
Lin Yi, however, got straight to the point:
"Did you bring what I wanted?"
"Is it this?"
When a crystal housing the Dragon God’s Soul appeared in Yamada Miki’s palm, suddenly the entire sky above Dragon Island grew shrouded in dense clouds, thunder rumbled, and gale winds whipped fiercely.
Many clueless players raised their heads in shock:
"What’s happening?"
At that moment, a dragon’s silhouette surfaced briefly above the clouds.
A formidable aura engulfed the sky above Dragon Island, and dozens of dragons spiraling around the island roared skywards.
Beside Zhang Xinying, Isabelle’s emotions suddenly flared upon witnessing this, screaming out in a frenzy:
"Release my father, you demon!"
Before Lin Yi could react to what was happening, Yamada Miki’s Netherworld Tiger abruptly charged towards Zhang Xinying beside Lin Yi.
Lin Yi, sensing danger, drew the Emperor’s Charm Sword pointing at the Netherworld Tiger, yelling furiously:
"Dare to harm her! You’re courting death!!"
Yamada Miki suddenly appeared before Lin Yi, wearing a taunting expression, declaring:
"Don’t disturb it, your opponent is me."
