Chapter 469: You Guys Really Don't Understand Him!

Garuda was so frightened he hid behind Athena, "Boss, save me!"

This guy Garuda, apart from being good at talking trash, actually doesn't have any real skills, he's useless in fights or anything.

In critical moments, he still had to rely on his sister Athena to protect him.

The next moment, Celebrity Eternal and Higashino Araki simultaneously launched an attack toward Athena.

Swoosh!

Athena appeared extremely decisive, launching the attack first. She raised her blade and slashed, a slash of light sweeping out, knocking back both Celebrity Eternal and Higashino Araki from a distance, simultaneously interrupting their spellcasting.

The next second, she released her Army Soul to obscure their vision.

Just as Celebrity Eternal drew his bow and loosed an arrow, coordinating with Higashino Araki casting a spell to break the Army Soul, at an unknown time, Athena had already charged up to the two of them.

As a Shadow Mage, Higashino Araki quickly cast a magic shield.

As a Noble Archer, Celebrity Eternal also released an arrow shield to block.

But Athena simply moved her longsword and effortlessly broke through the magic and arrow shields, her powerful slashing force simultaneously knocked both Celebrity Eternal and Higashino Araki back several steps.

Each of them lost a huge chunk of health from the HP bar above their heads!

With the power of a legendary military saber, Athena easily handled a 1v2.

Although the three were not much different in level, besides having the advantage of being in a legendary class versus their epic ones, Athena also had another overwhelming edge, every one of her skills was currently SS-grade, the highest tier, and all her equipment were top-tier golden attributes.

All this was thanks to Zhang Yue transferring 100 billion units of Energy to her.

Even elites like Celebrity Eternal and Higashino Araki, top-tier new-generation professionals from major empires, couldn't possibly have access to that much Energy right now. After all, otherworldly Energy couldn't be traded, it could only be farmed by oneself, with no other way of acquiring it.

Before such a huge power gap, Celebrity Eternal and Higashino Araki had no strength to fight back against Athena.

In the livestream room opened by the Bear Nation professionals, countless Bear Nation viewers sneered at them.

[Stop showing your shame in public. Just crawl back to where you came from! Bear Nation and Dragon Nation aren't something your bunch of trash can mess with!]

[Athena, my goddess, go! Kill them!]

Unable to win the duel, Celebrity Eternal waved his hand and summoned his army to launch an attack.

Facing the enemy's large army, Athena remained calm, holding her saber as she charged into the enemy ranks.

On the other side.

The professionals of Dragon Nation were also going all out against the invaders from the Seven Great Nations.

Especially the top-tier guild professionals of Dragon Nation, Dragon Clan, Dragon Soar, Demon Emperor, each of them was incredibly strong, madly slaughtering the invaders from the Seven Great Nations.

Every member of Heavens Hall was a powerful elite, one who could take on ten alone.

Martial Saint: Dominating Blade!

Sword Emperor: Falling Dust!

Flame Knight: Wu Haotian!

Thunder Mage: Lin Tian…

All elite, rare, epic, and even legendary professionals were rampaging through enemy ranks, unstoppable.

But ultimately, their strength wasn't yet enough to turn the entire tide of battle.

After all, they weren't [Zero], nor [Asura].

Dragon Nation, Bear Nation, Thracian, and several smaller nations aiding Dragon Nation, combined had nearly 1.5 million troops.

But the Seven-Nation Coalition had almost five million soldiers.

With a massive advantage of over three times the manpower, they gradually began to crush Dragon Nation.

In the unending screams and flickering white lights, professionals from Dragon Nation and its allies were killed one after another!

Meanwhile, endless beast tides were also rampaging madly across the battlefield.

Although the beast tide attacked indiscriminately, Dragon Nation, Bear Nation, and their allies were surrounded by the Seven Great Nations' armies and closest to the Ghost Tower—thus, they were the most exposed and became the primary target of the beast tide!

And the people of the Seven Great Nations had deliberately formed a surrounding circle around the Ghost Tower—this allowed them to coordinate with the beast tide, attacking from inside and outside to more efficiently slaughter Dragon Nation, Bear Nation, and the other nations!

So with the "help" of the beast tide, the united forces of the Seven Great Nations gradually shrank the encirclement, conducting a full extermination campaign against the professionals of Dragon Nation, Bear Nation, and others!

Off the battlefield.

Kwon Jihyun, Inoue Amano, Leo Broye, Morgan Gibada, Kuye, and the other leaders of the Seven Great Nations were already holding a video meeting to start celebrating in advance.

"As long as we wipe out the garrison of Dragon Nation in World 19, we can infinitely strengthen the beast tide, letting it spread throughout the entire Death Zone. After that, Dragon Nation's new professionals will never be able to pass World 19—they'll be forever stuck below World Eighteen!"

"Once this cutoff forms, it's equivalent to completely severing their logistics. By then, even without us lifting a finger, we can just watch Dragon Nation rot and destroy itself over time!"

"Wonderful! This is absolutely brilliant! Hahaha! Now that Zero is dead, everything's become so much easier!"

"After this battle is over, we should also take time to punish those disobedient countries. Daring to defy our Seven Great Nations and publicly aid Dragon Nation against us—they truly have no idea how to behave!"

"Come, let's raise a glass to celebrate the imminent destruction of Dragon Nation!"

Across the screens, the leaders of the Seven Great Nations each raised their glasses.

Their faces were all filled with smug grins.

Watching the livestream footage, they waited to see the nations of Dragon Nation, Bear Nation, and Bhutan either swallowed by the beast tide or annihilated by their combined armies.

The situation on the field was indeed growing more and more unfavorable to Dragon Nation and its allies.

Offline, Ice Emperor, Moon Mark, and Seraph could only watch helplessly in frustration.

"The power of the Seven Great Nations wasn't weak to begin with. With a beast tide of this scale working in tandem with them, we have absolutely no chance of winning this war."

Seraph clenched her fists, "Damn it, if only I could get into World 19, I'd definitely kill them with my own hands!"

Moon Trace shook his head, sighing softly, "If anyone could enter, it would actually be worse for us."

"By then, the elite forces of the Seven Great Nations could simply march through the Death Zone. We wouldn't be able to deal with the Frost Mage King of the Cold Nation either."

"There's only one person who could turn this around, Zero."

Ice Emperor sighed sorrowfully, eyes full of desolation, "Unfortunately, he's already sacrificed himself."

Somewhere deep in the mountains of Dragon Nation.

A group of disciples surrounded their master, Wolong, all with nervous expressions as they stared at the livestream on the phone in front of them.

"What do we do? How can we break out of this kind of situation?"

"Is Zero… really dead? Feels like such a shame… He was one of Dragon Nation's once-in-a-generation unrivaled experts. Sigh…"

At this moment, Xue Lan looked at the calm-faced Wolong and asked, "Master, you seemed to have a pretty close relationship with Zero. Now that he's dead, how come you don't look the least bit sad?"

Just as Xue Lan finished speaking.

Several other junior sisters also found it odd.

Indeed, ever since the news of Zhang Yue's death spread, Wolong had remained eerily calm.

Wolong sat cross-legged, clutching prayer beads in hand, eyes closed, speaking calmly, "You guys don't understand him at all."

"You guys really don't understand him."

Saying this, Wolong suddenly opened his eyes, "DISASTER IS ABOUT TO ARRIVE."

All the disciples were startled, "W-where? Master, do you also think Dragon Nation is doomed this time…"

"No," Wolong replied, "I'm talking about a disaster, for the Seven Great Nations."

———

At the same time.

[World 19]

Just as the armies of the Seven Great Nations were madly invading Dragon Nation's territory, about to swallow Dragon Nation, Bear Nation, and Thracian—

From the sky, a thunderous dragon's roar suddenly echoed across the heavens.

ROAR!!!!
