Heroes' Prison-Chapter 1303 - 1238: Uneasy Emotions

The avatar of the King of Greed licked his lips and said, "That’s the Guardian released by the God of Slaughter from Heroes’ Prison. But don’t worry, they can’t leave the realm of the Hero Empire, so they won’t interfere with us. In the end, they’ll be refined by us. This is actually a feast for us; after refining so many strong ones, each of us will have a significant supplement."

"Roar!" At this moment, an angry dragon roar suddenly came from the Second World below!

Peering through the endless demonic qi, one can vaguely see an immensely huge Flood Dragon flying towards them.

Its two front claws were still shackled with two thick chains, leaving two deep cracks in space wherever they passed.

Its aura was majestic, even before its body arrived, the unstoppable momentum had already penetrated through the thick circle of demonic qi into outer space.

"What is that... such a strong aura!" exclaimed a Space Envoy in surprise.

"Peerless Demon Emperor, Ye Konghua!" spat the King of Hell from beneath his hood.

"How can it be him?" muttered the avatar of the King of Curses, puzzled. "It was suppressed by the Yellow Emperor back then and then disappeared without a trace. How could it suddenly appear here after so many years? Could it possibly have been imprisoned in Heroes’ Prison, now released by the God of Slaughter?"

"It should be! Its aura is too strong; it should still be a mortal god! That chain suppressed its strength, preventing it from divine enthronement." The King of Fallen nodded.

"What good is being strong, if it is still going to be destroyed by us!" snorted the King of Annihilation dismissively. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

As his words fell, a violent shockwave suddenly reverberated from the demon cloud circle below!

The gigantic Flood Dragon crashed into an invisible barrier, which is the array barrier of the World-Ending Formation. The intense impact caused the barrier to ripple, the surging demonic qi boiling incessantly.

"Roar!" The gigantic Flood Dragon roared again, its enormous body repeatedly and madly crashing into the barrier, releasing one wave after another of shockwaves.

The chains were also swung by its claws, fiercely lashing against the barrier, producing a deafening sound like mountains collapsing and the earth splitting.

No matter how hard it attacked, the barrier only vibrated, showing no signs of breaking. The barrier steadfastly blocked it, preventing it from ascending even a single step higher.

It roared and crashed time and again, like a trapped dragon struggling desperately, unable to break free despite its immense power.

"We four Space Envoys have sealed the space ourselves; it definitely won’t get out!" a Space Envoy sneered.

...

From the distant top of the sky, vague thunderous sounds mingled with angry dragon roars echoed, spreading throughout the entire Second World like muffled thunder.

Across the continents of the Second World, in every city and village, along ancient wilderness paths, countless humans stared at the sky in fear, listening to the distant dragon roar. Although they couldn’t see what was happening 100,000 miles above them, the sounds descending suggested an ominous situation above.

In the vast ocean, countless marine creatures leapt out of the sea. Even the ocean giant beasts, which had long slept in the depths, awoke, surfacing one by one, with giant shadows cruising on the dark sponges, like floating islands.

On cliffs, mountain peaks, treetops in forests, countless birds and crows emitted mournful cries, scattering in panic. Numerous wild beasts ran and roared through the forests, trembling.

At this very moment, the entire Second World was trembling, enveloped in a sense of unease, with everyone feeling the approach of doomsday.

Today, countless players logged in and didn’t head to the Tower of God, didn’t go on adventures, didn’t go out shopping; almost every player was looking up at the black sky in confusion and worry. The forums were flooded with discussions about this event, with everyone involved and everyone concerned.

This dramatic change also affected the real world. Reporters from each country’s media were reporting on it, offering various ominous analyses and speculations.

As a result, the stock market was in a dismal state, with stocks related to the Second World all plummeting, including even the sturdiest Hero Guild.

This calamity, unlike any that concerns a particular country or power, involves everyone in the Second World.

Among the numerous panic-stricken crowds, Huang Yi stood quietly with his thin figure, gazing at the black sky, lost in thought, waiting for the return of Peerless Demon Emperor, Ye Konghua.

Just now, after returning from the sky to the ground, he immediately urged Peerless Demon Emperor, Ye Konghua to strike personally, vigorously flying to the high sky to probe the World-Ending Formation.

The territory of the Hero Empire includes 100,000 kilometers of airspace from the ground to outer space. Peerless Demon Emperor, Ye Konghua flew to the limit height of 100,000 kilometers, able to contact the outer formation of the World-Ending Formation but couldn’t surpass this height to outer space to battle those demon clan experts.

Around him was a multitude of frightened and bewildered people, their anxious chatter merging together, faintly, as if coming from another world.

The players now and then turned their heads, casting their hopeful gazes upon Huang Yi.

In their eyes, this man had repeatedly dissolved dire situations, had turned impossibilities into possibilities, and had created miracles. Just seeing him inexplicably brought a sense of calm, as if having him around meant that nothing was unsolvable.

But this time, Huang Yi didn’t know how to solve it.

Relying on the players’ power alone offers no hope, unless players can elevate to Level 300, reaching the divine domain level, possessing the strength of Heavenly Demon, to qualify for such battles.

And Huang Yi was the highest-level player on the Second World’s side. Today was a new month, and his Godslayer’s Naming automatically leveled him up, reaching Level 297 Seven Steps to Heaven, but the level 300 divine domain layer was still too far away.

Apart from the players, there remained only the NPCs. Those Hero Empire Guardians were indeed powerful but could only huddle within the Hero Empire’s borders, unable to go out and fight, lacking the freedom players have.

The only NPCs capable of moving freely with great strength were the principal of the Oskan Royal Academy and the sole remaining vice principal, Ni Feng. But even with them, breaking the World-Ending Formation was impossible, even if the principal had the Finished Divine Artifact "Time of Georgia."

So, where’s the path to rescue?

Could it be that this time, the Second World is truly doomed?
