Book One, Chapter 26: Don’t Believe Me? Inspect the Goods Yourself!

Although ebony is extremely heavy, the piece Lu Zi'an possessed was small enough for one person to carry.

"My dears, I am quite fond of this master of ours," Lijiang said, gently cupping her chest while holding the giant Meow King. She squinted her eyes, wearing a soft, gentle smile.

Captains like Carol could clearly sense a formidable power emanating from the flags. It was the collective entity of the thousand-man phalanx behind them, converging the war souls that belonged to them.

"Hmph!" Aguli’s face flushed purple. He turned and stormed off, swearing that if he ever had the chance, he would tear this wretched Han man into a thousand pieces.

Ning Jing steeled herself and, using a speed that surpassed her own previous limits, cut through the three ship-girls attempting to intercept her. Without looking back, she headed straight toward the location of the aircraft carrier *Phoenix*.

The originally golden body of the Snake King was now covered in massive wounds. Fortunately, Xu Haibao periodically applied the Nectar Technique to accelerate the beast's recovery. Coupled with the occasional medicinal pills fed to it, the Snake King fought with increasing ferocity.

Lu Dacheng never dared to be negligent toward Meng Tao. That Meng Tao could sweep through the scrap industry of Rongyang in such a short time was, in his mind, only natural. This further confirmed his suspicions that Meng Tao must have some hidden, unfathomable background.

Tears welled up in Qin Zhiai’s eyes once more, falling in large, rolling drops like pearls from a broken string.

Qin Zhiai was stunned. Without even stopping to consider the meaning of those four words, she looked up. She didn't even have time to see what the man looked like before he released her arm, brushed past her, and vanished in a blur of speed.

For the first time in forever, Lu Zi'an woke up at six o'clock, only to find that someone had beaten him to it.

Even the most excellent game was merely a tool for a conglomerate to make money. Currently, Starlight Company had over two billion in liquid assets, so they were not exactly short on funds.

Meng Xiu remained silent, but his expression was grim. He desperately wanted to beat that bastard to a pulp, but he could clearly see the gap in their abilities; if he were to step up, he wouldn't fare much better than Spay.

However, in the next instant, he was sent flying toward the sky. The blood scattered around him rose up from the surroundings, returning into his body.

Inaba Tewi giggled disingenuously for a while, while Alice and Marisa kept straight faces, tilting their heads to stare at her. They neither spoke nor made any expressions; they simply watched her quietly and unblinkingly, until Tewi’s embarrassment reached a breaking point and she withered into silence.

When Fudge greeted Harry like an old friend, Percy immediately shot Harry a look of jealousy.

If it were just Iron Man, it might be manageable, but with existence-defying characters like Doctor Zola, Doctor Strange, and Doctor Doom, Zhang Heng felt deeply humbled. Compared to the dullness of the real world, the Marvel universe was incredibly colorful.

He was giving the Monkey King an out, lest the others harbor misunderstandings about Sun Wukong and cause him to lose face.

The entire Hulao battle formation was shrouded in a crimson-yellow light. Every attack was brought to a standstill, and even the formation itself ground to a halt.

A week later, Ulla had fully recovered. The group gathered in the clone cultivation room, and upon seeing the report on Ulla's physical fitness, they were overcome with an incredulous joy.

A variety of auras erupted from every corner of the illusory world, easily smoothing over the disasters nearby. Turbulent spiritual energy was absorbed, chaotic laws were sorted out, and spatial rifts began to close. Even the radiance of the Dragon Source seemed obscured at this moment.

"Attention all units, initiate evacuation procedures immediately. Residents within a hundred-kilometer radius must evacuate at once. Repeating, initiate evacuation procedures." The GUYS ground forces immediately received the red alert for Plan B: evacuate non-essential personnel to prevent the spread of toxins.

Gong Sichen did not dare offend his son for the moment, so he scooped him up and trapped him in his embrace.

Facing the accusations of his family, Guan Yunshan felt deeply depressed. He felt that none of them understood him.

"That is why you need to investigate. Just the special electromagnetic waves detected are enough to confirm the presence of a giant creature." Serizawa Shingo appeared as well; he had been the first to be awakened.

Mu Lengxin wondered why he had to keep pestering him. What did it matter to him when he had gotten together with Su Ciyi?

If things had proceeded normally, the villager who had been saved should have been extremely grateful to Guan Yunshan. Even if they didn't treat him as a savior, they should at least have been polite.

"The greatest joy in life is listening to music while icing your injuries. You have the heart to listen to music so carefree—do you want to know what people are saying about you online?"

At this moment, Zeng Yiqing, who had been in the lead, doubled back, slipped behind Shang Zhan, and unleashed a series of skills, stabbing him.

Five sharp sounds rang out in succession as five bursts of energy struck Su Fei’s spear shaft. The shaft developed fine cracks, and a tremendous force surged into Su Fei’s body, wreaking havoc within.

The blood-stained gauze was noticeably heavier than before, making it somewhat difficult to hold, but fortunately, it was still manageable.

The walls of Xiliang City were thirty meters high—already a colossal sight—but the walls of Quanqu Pass were even more imposing. Most importantly, this gateway was integrated directly into the solid rock face. A single glance was enough to tell that it was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and with it stretching for a hundred miles, it appeared all the more magnificent.
