Chapter 545: Confident Sandia Players

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Dragon City is indeed the top settlement. It has accumulated too much power for us to catch up with.”

Some Cybertron players from Ameagle were sent to a technology-themed sub-settlement with The Three-Body Problem background. They seemed a little crestfallen, apparently struck by the difference in the strength between their settlements.

“We can’t help it. They’re from a civilization that has been passed down for thousands of years without interruption, and as a settlement with a historical background, according to the rules of the Land of Inheritance, they’re much more attractive to top heroes.”

One of the female players sighed.

The Land of Inheritance was created to preserve civilizations. Naturally, it favored countries with longer histories.

Obviously, Chidragon had one of the longest histories in the world, whereas that of Ameagle was one of the shortest. The top settlement of Ameagle wasn’t as grand as it sounded.

The country might seem invincible in their movies, but when compared to other countries with ancient civilizations, they seemed belittled.

“Hey, stop being so sentimental. Twelve o’clock. Those 20km need covering fire!”

Robert, the top player of Ameagle put his hand on the head of a severely injured Tyrant Lizard’s head. The silver light of his talent skill covered the alien creature, instantly turning the Transcendent Rank-5 creature into a giant red mechanical dragon.

“Mechanical Bishop”, his talent skill, could turn any creature with a soul into a mechanical form and even change the “data” of the soul, making the creature switch sides.

“Fire everything!”

The Autobots spoke in their mechanical voices. They had switched to various forms and were using enormous weapons to launch missiles.

Boom, boom, boom...

Bullets and bombs showered down like a thunderstorm. With the Transcendent-level “Ammunition Depot Space” that the Autobot settlement had mastered, they created a death zone that was over 10km wide, pulverizing the semi-transparent alien creatures.

However, before the smoke went away completely, the creatures regained their forms and charged at the Autobots’ defensive line again.

The alien race that was named “Three-Body Men” could switch between solid, liquid, and gaseous states and weren’t that easily killed.

“Ameagle was only established for a few hundred years, and it’s nothing compared to the history of Chidragon. However, we’re a different story!”

Meanwhile, in a sub-settlement where the mountain had been carved into tens of thousands of Buddha statues, over a dozen Sandia players and heroes walked out of the projection of a settlement that looked like a palace.

“According to the information on the forum, this sub-settlement is called Longmen Grottoes. It has a Buddhism background.”

“Buddhism originated in Sandia, and the Chidragon hero in charge of this settlement is called Xuanzang, who in history came to Sandia to study Buddhist knowledge. He brought back a lot of advanced scriptures, which enlightened the Chidragon people!”

The Sandia players examined their surroundings and spoke in a condescending tone.

As a big country with a population of over a billion, Sandia now had over 20 settlements left. This Baahubali Palace settlement was the top one, and more importantly, just as Dragon City, it was controlled by players.

“Our king is relatively old and wasn’t qualified as a beta tester in the beginning. Had it not been for that, we would have been stronger than Dragon City now!”

The speaker was the only player who wore a veil and had a lighter skin tone. She was apparently a female of a high caste. Her eyes were filled with admiration when she looked like a tall player who wore glamorous golden armor and a golden armband.

That was King Baahubali, a Legendary Transcendent Rank-7 player.

As a player who hadn’t participated in the beta test, it was very difficult for him to become the leader of a settlement that was controlled by players, not to mention making such achievements.

Because of that, to a lot of Sandia people, their King Baahubali had as much potential as the master of Dragon City, if not more. They believed that sooner or later, their king would replace Ji Ye and become the top player in the world.

“Don’t say such things. It’ll only drive us apart. Remember. We’re here as a reinforcement to help the Human race.”

King Baahubali “scolded” his companions, but he then looked up at the sky.

Of course, that was only a high-sounding excuse.

In fact, his settlement had chosen to come mostly because they had seen how difficult the advancement test was in the live stream.

They hoped that after lending a hand to Dragon City, when it was their turn to take the test, Dragon City would return the favor so that they would also have a chance to pass the test.

Moreover, they also wanted to demonstrate Sandia’s power through the live stream.

Although Sandia had over a billion people, before the Land of Inheritance started, it was one of the poorest big countries in the world and was ridiculed for that.

In the Land of Inheritance, thanks to their long civilization, they had turned things around. Needless to say, they wanted a chance to demonstrate so that their people would be proud of themselves.

King Baahubali looked up at the sky. He knew that right now, hundreds of millions of his countrymen must be watching him and felt as excited and confident as he was.

Boom!

However, the sky suddenly darkened.

An enormous figure over 3,000m tall rose into the sky. There were two faces on its head. One was a graceful female face and the other a blue male face with large fangs. Thousands of smaller faces covered its body. They were the faces of men and women of all ages, and all of them seemed tormented. It also had thousands of arms and eight giant legs.

“Roar!”

The two mouths spat out blood and flames respectively. When the blood and fire met, they created a poisonous smoke, which swept across the field like a gust of wind. If the Buddha statues on the mountains hadn’t given off a golden light that covered everyone, the flames alone could have destroyed the entire battlefield.

“It’s an Asura. To make it worse, it’s a Thousand-faced Asura King. It’s created by a male and a female Quasi-Legendary Asuras of Transcendent Rank-5 and above. Together, they’re as powerful as a top Legendary warrior.”

The Sandia players paled a little.

“This is our greatest enemy. This race is known as semi-gods. They’re violent, blood-thirsty, and remarkably powerful. That Thousand-face Asura King enjoys slaughtering people. It has killed hundreds of thousands of our men. Will Dragon City be able to handle it?”

Back then, the native King Baahubali of their settlement was killed by an Asura king. The current one only succeeded to the throne because he had killed the severely injured Asura king.

“That’s good news for us. We’ll take over when they can’t handle it, and our king can kill the Asura himself. The Chidragon people will be surprised by the power we demonstrate.”

Some Sandia player said excitedly.

“Things in this world are unpredictable...”

However, when the giant Asura king showed up, a hero chanted. He wore a cassock and had been sitting cross-legged in the grotto.

There was a vermillion dot between his eyebrows, and his eyes were half-closed. His tanned arms had bulging muscles, and his hairstyle was that of a Buddha.

“It’s Commander Brahma!”

In Dragon City, some players’ eyes lit up as they dodged the flames.

The Buddhist hero that was known as Brahma flipped his horsetail whisk and walked in the air. With every step he took, a golden shadow came out of his body, activating the Transcendent Buddhist power.

“It’s Master B!”

“Oh my god! Master B is in Dragon City! Are Su Huanzhen and Ye Xiaochai? What about Golden-Silver Ladies and Fengtian Xiaoyao?”

“Is this alien race called Asura? It feels like the combination of Buddha and Sin and Bodan the Demon Monk.”

“Those skills are Shake the World, Lotus Road, Sharp Spinning Finger, Nine Sacred Seals...”

In an island province on southern Chidragon, tens of millions of people watched this in excitement.

As a province without a big population, Pili, their strongest settlement, was destroyed half a month ago. They were surprised to find the hero here in Dragon City.

“He’s called Brahma! How arrogant!”

The Sandia players weren’t too pleased.

Brahma was one of the three of their main deities, but now, a Chidragon hero was called by the same name.

In the air, the hero kept activating skills as he marched forward.

The path he walked was glowing resplendently, and he gradually changed his appearance. A Buddhist halo appeared behind him as his long white hair danced in the air. There was a golden Buddha mark between his eyebrows.

[Almost-God, Brahma]

[Level: Transcendent Rank-6]

[Rarity: Legendary]

[Description: The master monk abhorred evils as deadly foes. He was righteous and never softened his hand in eliminating evil. He was one of the two pillars of the Plight Realm and a recognized top martial arts practitioner.]

“Kill him! Kill him!”

The Asura king knew nothing but killing.

It didn’t relent even when Brahma challenged him all by himself. In the bloody smoke, thousands of fists raised up before smashing down at Brahma.

The clouds rolled like waves, turning into an Asura with an even more savage face, which bellowed silently at Brahma.

“Don’t make me laugh!”

Brahma didn’t try to evade this formidable strike.

He chanted loudly, and all his skills gathered together, forming a giant golden Buddha statue that was over 1,000m tall. The statue made a Buddist hand seal and charged at the Asura king.

Boom!

The golden Buddha Light and the blood-red fire filled the sky. Even the sun seemed to dim in comparison. The ground shook as if there was an earthquake.

A few seconds later, the golden Buddha Light dimmed, and the golden Buddha statue began to crumble.

Pew!

The white-haired Brahma spat out a lot of blood and fell to the ground. The long white hair then disappeared, and he was back to the Buddha hairstyle.

The Asura king didn’t seem affected at all.

Its fire seemed to burn even more fiercely as the heavy smoke covered the sky.

“I think we have the result now. I knew it. Dragon City can’t handle the Asura king.”

“Did they think that the Asura king was just some common alien creature? That man tried to fight it on his own, not to mention that it was a direct confrontation. That Asura king has the toughest body and is said to be indestructible. Even our king had to kill one by attacking its soul.”

“And he calls himself Brahma.”

The Sandia players and the Sandia people watching the live stream all smirked.

Because Asura was a mythological creature recorded in their religious scriptures, and in a way, it was “one of their own”. If their monster was powerful, in a way, it proved that their country was powerful as well.

“Leave it to our King Baahubali. He has a godly power and is blessed by Shiva. He’ll have no problem in killing the Asura king.”

Some frantic Sandia fans wrote on the forum.

“Is that Asura king so powerful? Even Commander Brahma can’t defeat it!”

The blood-red flames had risen so high that they had covered the entire Asura king.

Some Dragon City people frowned, fearing that it would launch even more frightening attacks.

“Wait. Is it snowing?”

The smoke seemed to have affected the clouds, and something began to sift down.

“No, it’s ash...”

A Dragon City native touched the “snowflake” and saw that it was more like ash, and it came from...

Splash...

The Asura king was burning up in the flames, and a blood-red color filled the sky.

As the wind blew, the Asura king started disintegrating from its head. It then turned into blood-red ashes, which sifted down like snowflakes.

Yes, in the Legendary-level battle, Brahma was severely injured.

But the Asura king was killed, and its soul was destroyed.

The result was obvious.

“...”

People of the Sandia settlement fell silent. Even the Transcendent Rank-7 King Baahubali looked stunned.

The smiles froze on all the Sandia people’s faces.

They felt like clowns!
