Chapter 313 Sleeping in the Present World: Past Myths Enter Reality (Part 1)
Unscathed? !
When the fleet's high command saw the situation of Dongwang on the detection screen, they couldn't help but feel a tremor in their hearts.

How could the enemy withstand such a level of bombardment, especially a direct hit?!
It should be noted that, according to the Donghua leadership's assessment, the most feared aspect of the Hidden Existence was actually its ability to conceal itself and infiltrate to carry out decapitation strikes. As for its ability to directly confront the army's armored forces, the estimated risk was not too high.

After all, even if it exists in secret, it is still flesh and blood. If an opportunity is seized to launch a saturation attack, modern armies and weapons will still have the upper hand.

Didn't you see that even Yi Beidou back then had to adopt an evasive strategy when facing heavy weapons attacks from the Japanese army?
Given enough opportunity and space, the top leaders of major world powers are quite confident that they can eliminate those who exist in secret, and it is not impossible that they could even eliminate them on a large scale in one go.

However, the person who appeared before them overturned the expectations of Donghua's top management.

The empty sea was bombarded with high-intensity bombs, hitting the opponent head-on, yet the opponent remained completely unharmed.

This is no longer a body of flesh and blood!
boom! !

The sea trembled, and Dong Wang's figure shot out instantly, splashing waves and creating a terrifying air explosion ring in the air.

"Target accelerating!! Heading towards the flagship!! Speed ​​has already exceeded the speed of sound!! And it's still increasing!!"

"Prepare interceptor weapons!! We must stop their advance!"

"Close-in weapon systems, prepare to intercept the target as soon as it breaches the fire network!!"

"."

The low growls of the warship commanders came through the walkie-talkies.

All the warships opened fire again, and a deluge of cannon fire, like stars in the sky, engulfed everything in front of the Eastern King.

hum! !

The golden sun shone brightly in the sky, and at the same time, golden light also emanated from the body of the Eastern King. His speed increased again, and he flashed across the sea in an unbelievable trajectory, dodging most of the missiles.

Under the influence of the magic, the cannon's positioning system was unable to accurately locate and track it, making it easy to dodge. Furthermore, the aftershocks of the explosion could not harm the Eastern King at all.

However, when the Eastern King approached within three kilometers of the fleet.

Rat-a-tat-tat!!
The incredibly dense, high-speed firepower covered the area within tens of meters around Dong Wang.

This is a barrage of intercepting bullets generated by close-in weapon systems (CIWS) on multiple warships.

This is the warship's last line of defense; its dense, precise, and high-speed firing can destroy and intercept any invading enemy.

Even with multiple warships deployed together, and hundreds of bullets fired per second, Dong Wang could not completely evade them.

He suddenly stopped and crossed his arms in front of him.

Size at will, a giant's transformation!

Boom!

His two arms suddenly swelled and grew to be thicker than his waist, and the skin at the front of his arms showed obvious signs of jade-like keratin proliferation. His entire body was protected by his two arms.

The close-in weapon system shells, capable of pulverizing heavy armor, were completely blocked by Dong Wang's two arms.

As a sleeper, unlike a celestial being, one can only condense one earth immortal organ.

The Eastern King, as one of the best among the Sleepers, is a figure from mythology. The number of Earth Immortal cells contained within his body has long since reached the limit that he can contain.

Furthermore, unlike other hidden entities, the Earth Immortal cells existing within the body are mostly pieced together from pieces of flesh and blood of different Earth Immortals. Their inherent "divine" nature is in conflict, which naturally restricts the power exerted by the Earth Immortal cells.

The Earth Immortal cells within Dongwang's body are extremely intact.

This was the opportunity he obtained from the original Penglai Immortal Mountain!
Unbreakable! Absolutely unbreakable! This is practically a human superhuman! A truly indestructible body! It's hard to imagine what attack in the world could harm or destroy its flesh!!

However, the Eastern King was clearly not satisfied with the current situation.

Although these attacks could not harm him, they did hinder his progress and made it difficult for him to continue his sprint.

"Weapons in the secular world are getting more and more troublesome."

"Dong Wang said in a low voice, then he stopped using his feet, and his whole body was no longer standing on the sea surface, but instantly sank into the seawater.

For a moment, the dense barrage lost its target. Although it was possible to fire below the sea surface, the power and accuracy of the shots were greatly reduced by the obstruction of the seawater.

In the sea, the Eastern King's figure moved forward like a swimming dragon. Although its speed could not break the sound barrier as it did on the surface of the water, it had already surpassed the limits of fish.

"Distinguished leaders, the enemy has crossed the last line of defense and will likely board the main ship soon for close combat. Our situation will become even more unfavorable! To ensure your safety, please evacuate immediately by safety boat."

An officer pushed open the door to the command room and said with a serious expression.

The situation has reached its worst point.

Once the Eastern King boards the ship, with his monstrous abilities, he could easily slaughter all living beings on board.

Given enough time, no one would doubt that such a terrifying figure could actually pierce through a warship.

They no longer have the means to threaten the other side.

If we don't leave now, it might be too late.

In the command center, some people had cold and stern faces, some had fearful expressions, and some had gloomy expressions. All their eyes were fixed on the fleet commander standing at the front.

However, the fleet commander remained resolute and showed no intention of leaving.

"Pass on my orders: First, the rest of the fleet should distance themselves from the main ship as quickly as possible and prepare for blast protection."

"Second, the soldiers on the main ship should evacuate immediately, as many as possible."

"Third, immediately send people into the fog zone to find a way to notify the people on that ruin so that they can prepare for the event."

The commander said in a deep voice, still issuing orders in an orderly manner. His gaze swept over everyone present and he said, "You can evacuate with me, or you can stay with me. I will not leave. As long as the ship is there, I will live. If the warship is gone, I, as the commander, will have no face to live."

"We still have other options, and I will use the final solution!"

The expressions on everyone's faces changed slightly.

Indeed, they had a final solution: the "self-destruction" plan.

The most powerful weapon has not yet been deployed due to the need for a safe distance. It can be activated when the situation becomes absolutely unavoidable, destroying the entire arsenal and causing a horrific explosion on the entire warship.

This is a last resort to deal with the possibility of such terrorist individuals boarding the ship.

"Execute the order!!"

After a brief silence, the deputy commander shouted, and surprisingly, no one in the command room had evacuated.

The fleet commander didn't speak, nor did he even look behind him. With a solemn expression, he strode quickly to the control panel in front of him, entered a series of secret commands, and then a blood-red button slowly rose up.

His palm was already resting entirely on the button.

As long as he presses the button, an explosion several times more powerful than the previous one will detonate instantly, destroying and vaporizing everything in its path.

Even a monster like that would probably not be able to remain unscathed in the face of this most terrifying weapon ever made by humankind.

Snap! !
From the command center, everyone saw a flash of light on the warship's deck, and a figure appeared, gazing towards the command center. Although the fleet commander wasn't particularly powerful, his gaze didn't falter; he met those terrifying eyes through the glass.

While those who exist in secret may be as powerful as gods, those in high positions also possess their own aura and pride.

Perhaps in the next moment, he will be affected by the other person's gaze and fall into a coma.

But it doesn't matter. His body remains leaning forward, and if there is the slightest movement, his hand will immediately press the button.

"interesting."

A smile crept onto the Eastern King's lips, and his spiritual intuition also sensed a sense of crisis.

Although even if this crisis were to fully erupt, it would not be able to harm his life, it would inevitably cause some deep-seated and unnecessary losses, which could very likely affect his subsequent travel to the Mediterranean region.

Moreover, it is not easy to influence the other party's consciousness in an instant. The command room has an extremely powerful anti-interference array, and the person is a high-ranking official of the country, who is naturally protected by the "river of humanity" in the dark. What's more, the actions this person is taking at this moment are integrated with the overall fortune of Donghua, making it even more difficult to shake his spirit.

This is why, even though the top echelons of secular regimes are ordinary people, those hidden entities are still difficult to control.

Only at the end of a dynasty, when the high-ranking officials act immorally and go against the nation's destiny, will they lose the protection of the long river of human fortune, leading to frequent evil influences and chaos in the court.

However, having reached this point, the Eastern King has already achieved his goal.

On the one hand, he wanted to establish his authority in order to reduce interference from the secular world in the Mediterranean operation; on the other hand, he wanted to test the threat level of the powerful weapons currently in the hands of the secular world.

Now, he has a clear understanding of the situation.

Destroying warships and killing high-ranking officials in the secular world were not things he necessarily wanted to do.

After all, even a fleet commander was nothing more than a short-lived ant in his eyes.

When it comes to ants, people often just crush them if they can, but if the ants bite, there's no need to provoke them.

and so.

brush! !

With a flick of his wrist, Dong Wang vanished from the deck once more, returning to the surface of the sea.

He was incredibly fast, breaking the sound barrier and escaping the fleet's encirclement before plunging into the fog zone.

Upon seeing the Eastern King leave, the fleet commander was instantly drenched in sweat, and his entire body felt weak.

This is the instinctive reaction of ordinary people when facing life and death.

The others in the command room couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

After all, if you can live a good life, who would really want to die?
However, before he could even feel a sense of relief at surviving such a disaster, the commander's expression suddenly changed as he looked towards the misty area where the Eastern King had disappeared.

"Oh no!! That person has entered the misty area. Their target is likely the ruins. We must notify everyone inside the ruins as soon as possible so they can prepare in advance!!"

The commander said in a deep voice.

However, the people behind him remained silent.

Notification? How should we notify them?

The magnetic field is disordered in the foggy area, and communication equipment signals cannot enter at all, cutting off the long-distance transmission path.

However, if information is transmitted physically...
That person's speed had already exceeded the sound barrier. The most advanced fighter jets might be able to surpass its speed, but entering the fog zone and facing that terrifying storm would be tantamount to suicide.

They had no way of notifying the people who were currently in the Penglai Immortal Mountain.

For a moment, the fleet commander even felt a sense of regret, wishing he had pressed the button earlier.

Those people in the immortal mountain are far more important than their entire fleet.

Meanwhile, news of the Eastern King's appearance quickly spread back to the country.

The messages and intelligence reports sent back were enough to send shivers down the spines of the higher-ups.

"An entire fleet's firepower was blocked head-on by the enemy, and they emerged unscathed?!"

"Completely unable to intercept the enemy's actions, the fleet's flagship is under threat?!"

"Ultimately, they used self-destruction to force the enemy to abandon their invasion of the flagship, thus saving the fleet?!"

"."

This individual combat capability has completely surpassed that of modern armies, and nothing can restrain or hinder its advance.

"The Sleepers! It must be the Sleepers mentioned in the intelligence who have appeared in the world!"

Zhao Ping felt a cold sweat break out the moment he received the news.

According to the intelligence relayed back by Yi Beidou and others, unusual changes have occurred in the Mediterranean region, and the divination slips have changed again, this time truly awakening the beings that have been slumbering in the depths of seclusion.

Moreover, these beings have only just appeared in the world, yet they have already demonstrated an unprecedented threat.

The Sleepers are fundamentally different from the Ancients.

The ancients still have to worry about the weakness of reincarnation, while the sleepers have already overcome this weakness to some extent.

In this world, they can do whatever they want!

What worries Zhao Ping even more is the situation on Penglai Immortal Mountain.

Many sacred realms have gathered in Penglai Immortal Mountain, but none of them are likely to be a match for this person.

Once that person ascends the immortal mountain...
Zhao Ping felt a sense of suffocation; he couldn't imagine the outcome or the scene.

At the same time, because the commotion at sea was so great, the intelligence quickly spread among the world's major powers, causing a huge shock.

An individual power that completely transcends worldly forces seems to have emerged.

the other side.

The Eastern King's figure ran through the fog.

Wherever he passed, the mist parted automatically, revealing a path, and the wind and rain subsided on their own, as if he were the true master of this place, and all forbidden spells were willingly surrendering and yielding.

Before long, he had entered the inner circle area, and the main body of the immortal mountain, radiating auspicious seven-colored light, appeared before him.

"They haven't returned in a century."

The Eastern King muttered to himself, then suddenly strode forward and rushed towards the immortal mountain.

At this very moment, the many martial artists and researchers of Donghua who were on the immortal mountain were completely unaware of this.

Terror descends.
