Dragon Raja: Dragon Slaying Begins with System Hosting

Page 115

Japan is not a large country, but it is long and narrow. It takes some time to drive there from Tokyo. In the evening, the car entered the equally bustling Osaka Prefecture.

After arriving at the location and parking the car, the system began to instruct Sakurai Akira:

"Sakurai Akira, you guys pick them up here. There will be about seventy or eighty people. You can get to know each other then..."

Seventy or eighty people isn't actually that many; you could easily rob a place where the Snake Clan imprisons demons and get more than that.

However, compared to those imprisoned demons, Sakurai Kogure's group had a significant advantage—they possessed sufficient immediate combat power.

He could easily gather them up, arrange them into formations, and immediately throw them into battle—far more useful than Lu Mingfei's current men. Right now, only Chu Zihang and Xia Mi possessed sufficient combat power under Lu Mingfei's command; Sakurai Akira was only half-baked, and after a month of rushed training, he was ultimately too inexperienced…

So the system actually values ​​this group quite a bit. The situation in Japan is not good right now. They have dozens of thugs at their disposal, which is enough to change the course of a local battle.

"Understood, Lord Lu." Sakurai Akira nodded firmly upon receiving the order, indicating that he would definitely do the job well.

After explaining things to Sakurai Akira and the others, the system drove Xia Mi and Chu Zihang to another location.

It was a hotel in a great location, offering a complete view of the Oni Clan's new headquarters in Osaka, meaning you could clearly see how they would operate tonight.

Once inside the hotel, Xia Mi glanced at the new headquarters building of the Ghost Clan and asked Lu Mingfei, "What time do they make their move?"

The new headquarters of the Ghost Clan wasn't particularly lively; in fact, it looked rather deserted.

The system also looked at the building and said, "We'll start at 3 a.m. and finish before 4 a.m. if nothing unexpected happens. Between 3 a.m. and 4 a.m. is the quietest time in Osaka. Most people who want to sleep are already asleep, and even those who want to get up early haven't gotten up yet, so we can minimize the impact."

"Is Kazama Ruri inside?" Xia Mi asked.

"Neither Kazama Ruri nor the King are here, and Sakurai Kogure doesn't know where they went either." The system also showed some confusion on its face when it mentioned this.

It suspected that the Snake-Headed Eight Families' operation had been leaked again, but Sakurai Kogure said that apart from the two leaders, everyone else had arrived at the new headquarters as planned...

In the early hours of the morning, Yuan Zhisheng received this message from Lu Mingfei and felt it was a bit strange.

The personnel change in Osaka was a normal one. Those who would know the operation order would only be informed of the mission an hour before it took place. Moreover, there was no unusual activity on Tachibana Masamune's end, even though he was monitoring him...

Has the intelligence been leaked yet again? Or is it just a coincidence?

However, the hundreds of ghosts gathered in the new headquarters of the Ghost Clan are real. They have gathered almost all of the Ghost Clan's manpower together. These people can't all be discarded pawns, can they?

That's a bit too extravagant, isn't it?

Genji felt that something was wrong, but at this point, there was no way to cancel the operation.

Losing two important figures is fine, but once these ghosts are dealt with, the Fierce Ghost Clan will be pretty much finished.

Many people's eyes were on that building, including on the rooftop on the other side. The No. 1 leader, Wang Jiang, and the No. 2 leader, Long Wang, who were not in the new headquarters of the Fierce Ghosts, also had their eyes on that building.

"The Snake-Headed Eight Families are about to make their move." The masked king turned to Kazama Ruri and said, "From today onwards, the Demon Clan may truly become history."

"Don't you feel sorry for me?" Kazama Ruri's expression was extremely calm, without revealing any unusual expression.

The new headquarters in Osaka is just a burden that the king will abandon.

"More people mean more profits, fewer people sharing the spoils makes me happy." Wang Jiang's cheerful voice carried a chilling undertone amidst the wind and rain. "I've already achieved my goal of establishing the Fierce Ghost Clan. I don't know what they'd do with me anyway, so let them die. Why should I care?"

"The purpose of establishing the Demon Clan? Do you mean to put Tachibana Masamune on the throne of the Snake-Headed Eight Families?" Kazama Ruri asked.

"Yes and no, hehe. The situation between Japan and the White King's remains is far more complicated than you imagine. It's not just a simple power struggle between two forces. There are things involved behind the scenes that you probably don't even understand."

The king seemed to have something on his mind and was about to say something.

"A lot of things are involved behind the scenes?"

When Kazama Ruri heard him say that, she decided to press him for details and see if she could extract any useful information from the king.

"It's not just those standing on Japanese soil who covet the existence of the White King's Relic." The king seemed to be in a good mood and told him, "Everything that anyone does to prevent the White King's Relic from being born is in vain. The White King's Relic will inevitably be born successfully, because while some people don't want the White King's Relic to come out, there are also people who want the White King's Relic to come out."

"You?" Kazama Ruri's expression remained calm, but inside she felt somewhat... powerless?

The king knew about their plot long ago, at least a day before it was to be carried out.

At this point in time, it seems that only the elder brother knows about the Snake Clan's situation?

Who betrayed my brother? It couldn't be Lu Mingfei and the others...

"Me? I don't even qualify as that. I'm just a dark ghoul, devouring the corpses of the losers along the way to grow stronger. I'm even afraid that if I become too powerful, I'll attract the attention of other powerful beings..."

The king spoke incessantly to Kazama Ruri, his only listener, acknowledging his weakness and admitting that he was like a maggot clinging to life in the sewers...

But to Kazama Ruri, it was a completely different story... You've got the whole situation under control, and you're still calling us maggots? What are we then? Maggots eat shit, and we're just excrement?

A sudden burst of firelight ripped through the rainy night in Osaka.

"It has begun." The king paused, turning his gaze to the flame.

Chapter 148 The Sudden Nuclear Explosion and Earthquake

The battle at the headquarters of the Demon Clan continues. Although the orders were given temporarily, these powerful elites of the Snake Clan are able to advance steadily step by step after suffering some casualties... Although these problematic clansmen have problems, it is undeniable that they are indeed powerful hybrids.

Wang Jiang stood in the rain and talked at length with Kazama Ruri, further explaining his situation with Tachibana Masamune.

However, in addition to Kazama Ruri, there were three more mice in the audience.

On the first day of the Chinese New Year, the system sent Xia Mi and Chu Zihang a "start-of-work red envelope" to get them out of bed and started working...

Xia Mi secretly wrote a message to Lu Mingfei: "Will this fake king be an ordinary person?"

The system nodded.

"Can we track down the true location of this king?" Chu Zihang asked in writing.

The system replied softly: "Ruri Kazama tried to track down every king who appeared, but it was no use."

Writing was not very convenient for communication, but knowing that they couldn't be traced was enough; they listened more to the stories told by the king.

The king, who was telling the story, was completely unaware of the three mice eavesdropping behind him.

Even if the system doesn't intervene, Xia Mi and the others can handle this situation well, since they're about to have another serious management talent under their command—Sakurai Kogure.

Just like the Qingshan Charity School, Lu Mingfei can get things done without even having to show his face.

However, the system still came, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to hear the firsthand story from the king.

It came to Osaka specifically to see the King, and when it learned that the King and Kazama Ruri were not at the new headquarters of the Demon Clan, it knew it had come to the right place.

A "Word of Power: Bloodline Binding" was activated, initiating a large-scale search for the presence of hybrids in the vicinity.

This power of words is quite useful. It can find bloodlines within a certain range regardless of any obstacles, and the stronger the bloodline, the more noticeable the prompt.

Legend has it that when the Black Emperor Hodnigg was in a European royal palace, once this power was activated, no dragon-blooded creature on the entire European continent could escape His sight.

Neither the system nor Lu Mingfei possessed the ability to make the Word of Power cover an entire continent, but having the system activate this Word of Power and reach a limit of over a hundred meters was no problem at all.

The king's puppet body is an ordinary person and will not respond to this incantation, but he still likes to have Kazama Ruri by his side.

Kazama Ruri's royal bloodline is simply too eye-catching; compared to Xia Mi's ordinary super bloodline, it's like the difference between a 10W light bulb and an 80W light bulb.

The system, with its Bloodline Luo Jie activated, circled the area a couple of times and quickly found this place. It then quietly led its people over.

Climbing to the rooftop without using the stairs is something anyone can do, so they appeared behind Kazama Ruri and the King.

The only problem was that, given Kazama Ruri's physical abilities, she would definitely be able to hear the slight noise of them climbing onto the rooftop... Fortunately, Kazama Ruri didn't react, which allowed them to hide safely on the hotel rooftop.

The ventilation ducts on the rooftop concealed their figures well, and even a king with an ordinary human body wouldn't have the powerful senses to detect them.

"...When the ancient dragon embryo that merged with the Lenin sank to the bottom of the sea, the awakening of the White King's sacred remains was already a foregone conclusion..."

The king then recounted the most exciting part: the first-generation ancient dragon merged with the Lenin, becoming a living steel behemoth, before being severely damaged and sunk above the Abyss by a bomb.

This first species became a sacrifice to the White King, and the blood of the ancient dragon became the nourishment to awaken the White King.

All four listeners were shocked when they heard this.

The main shock comes from the cost and sacrifice of this plan, which involves using the first generation of the race to sacrifice the White King. It has to be said, the White King certainly has a lot of prestige.

Xia Mi's eyes were wide open as she pondered the strangeness of the incident.

When she heard about the first generation of the species, she instinctively thought it was fake, mainly because it was a bit too outrageous.

But as she heard further, she began to believe it was true, because the embryo of this first-generation species was problematic. It had unconsciously fused with the Lenin, and was entirely sustained by the ancient dragon's powerful life force, making it appear like a brain-dead first-generation species...

It's unclear which sibling was behind this, but whether they were passively or actively involved remains a question mark.

No, the ground in Japan is getting hotter and hotter. But looking at Lu Mingfei's serious face, she felt there was still a chance.

Because she wasn't fighting alone as a dragon!

The system heard this story... The White King was revived through blood sacrifice starting in 92. With such a tonic, what stage has the White King's remains been restored to now?

The Snake Clan is preparing to go to the Abyss. Should we go back to China for the New Year first?

In any case, the system never considered the possibility of Lu Mingfei personally going into business.

After all, what does 8,000 meters underwater mean? If you encounter any trouble, there's a very high probability you'll die there. The difference in danger compared to land is enormous...

By the way, it seems that Genji didn't come to Osaka? When I was browsing around with the Bloodline Luo Jie enabled by the system, I didn't seem to see any targets whose bloodline level matched that of Kazama Ruri.

As it analyzed some trivial matters, it continued listening to the story the king was telling:

Before sinking into the sea, the ancient dragon embryo wreaked havoc on the people on the ship, mainly due to the contamination of its dragon blood. Many crew members turned into dead servants... What's more surprising is that Erii was also infected with the blood of that first-generation dragon, which led to her extremely extreme bloodline.

Of the three siblings, only Minamoto no Chiyome is a real demon; Erii was created later in life.

The more complete story told by the king actually had more flaws and mysteries, but...

As the flames at the new headquarters of the Fierce Ghosts gradually dimmed, the ground suddenly began to tremble faintly.

No one paid much attention to the slight tremor. Japan has a lot of earthquakes, with at least a thousand perceptible earthquakes every year. Most of them are minor earthquakes and have little impact on Japan.

Xia Mi leaned close to Lu Mingfei's ear and whispered, "Boss, I have a feeling something's off about this earthquake..."

What's wrong with an earthquake happening in Japan?

Before she could think any further, the system saw Kazama Ruri turn her head to look in the northeast direction.

In the dim rainy night, Lu Mingfei's eyes could not see Kazama Ruri's expression, but the northeast direction of Osaka was the location of the Abyss!

The shockwave...could it be coming from over there?

Genjiro and his group have already made their move against the Abyss? How come there was no news about it at all?

……

"The nuclear bomb has detonated. The first wave of zombies is expected to set sail in fifteen minutes. All teams, get ready."

"One group received."
