Chapter 933 Dragon King Escapes Prison
Kasha flew to the head and mouth of the Great Spring Dragon, held the Ice Horn with her hand, and then the Great Spring officially began to blow.

The sound truly was as loud and majestic as a ship's horn. This dragon transformation is really powerful!
So let's just keep blowing north. The Earth is so amazing; no matter where you are, as long as you head due north or due south, you'll definitely get there.

Just then, Da Chun received a phone call and text message from Zhou Qing: "Brother Chun, the midnight snack is ready."

Honestly, given the current situation, Da Chun really has neither the mood nor the time to eat.

"Mr. Zhou, we can't spare any more time right now, why don't we share some with the brothers?"

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "But Wei Shen and the others are busy too, they're all focused and can't spare a moment. Anyway, there's no rush, so why don't we wait until the mission is finished before we eat?"

"Row."

Da Chun knew how completely focused Wei Shen and the others were when they were concentrating. Honestly, if they had half that kind of focus when they were studying, they wouldn't have failed to get into good schools. But what good would getting into a good school do? Would it make them like him?
At this moment, both the royal command center and the internet cafe on the first floor were filled with solemnity and busy activity.

Ma Ying-lung's planned late-night celebration for the popular pet brand "Fengxing Cuo 5" had to be postponed. After all, opening champagne halfway through the event is a major no-no.

Meanwhile, news kept coming in: "The Black Iron City Flower has flown to Iron Flame Village! The village chief is rushing to greet it like a lapdog."

"The three city beauties have arrived at the Black Iron City teleportation array and have flown directly out of the west gate..."

"Some seemingly powerful NPCs from Black Iron City also rushed out of the west gate with the Three City Flowers."

"That newly trending fishing idiot has organized tens of thousands of idiot players to put up light sticks of the Farna fan club on their heads!"

"The news has reached Gem City, and some mages there have gathered at the teleportation array, seemingly discussing how to make a move as well."

Ma Yinglong was extremely nervous. He never expected that his main force, which had been deployed to Iron Flame Village for more than half a month without any significant progress, would suddenly become the focus of the entire game world. Fafnir even released a new song, "The Vortex of the Strong," to promote this event. This was probably not as simple as the tabloids described as a fight over a ruined orchard; it was at least a monster siege on the scale of Southern Canyon Village.

If it's really that large, how can tens of thousands of players like myself survive the vortex?
If we manage to win the siege, then just like last time, we'll remain level 10 and stay alive. If we don't win...

Zhou Qing spoke up: "Brother Chun said that the midnight snack will be postponed."

Ma Yinglong asked anxiously, "They just postponed the late-night snack, and didn't mention anything else?"

Zhou Qing exclaimed, "Brother Chun has even stopped eating late-night snacks. Doesn't that already say something?"

Ma Yinglong sighed, "Alright, we can't rely on Brother Chun for such a big event. We have to rely on ourselves this time too."

Tao said, "I see those curry-related projects that are building the canal are making quite a splash. Are they trying to squeeze into the village and win without lifting a finger?"

Ma Yinglong sighed helplessly: "That's the unrealistic thing about the game. When a main city opened, it would be packed with over a million players. Now, even a village is packed with over a hundred thousand players."

Tao laughed and said, "That's great! Curry is just a level 10 or 20 miner, and he hasn't had a chance to level up since the server opened. He definitely doesn't have the money to buy a village resurrection point. As long as there is any major upheaval in the God War, he will definitely be the first to die, and he'll be sent back to the main city!"

Ma Yinglong suddenly realized: "So that means we've run out of manpower to dig the canal?"

Zhou Qing laughed: "That's right, maybe the village chief would have terminated this slacking-off contract then, and we might have been able to take over."

Ma Yinglong said in a deep voice, "Alright! I'm suddenly really looking forward to this vortex of powerful figures. Let's start by taking in the weaklings..."

Top Ten Chat Group.

While Uriel was idly waiting for news at the Shadow Jade Tavern, the message from the Amel Merchant Guild finally arrived: "Vice President, go to Ironflame Village in Black Iron City."

Is it that all the NPCs are chasing after trending topics?
Uriel hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?"

Amy smiled: "I don't know either, let's just go."

That's true. If we can't even be sure what will happen there, what can we decide to do?
Uriel asked, "Where should I wait for you?"

Ai Mei'er smiled and said, "Of course, I'll be waiting for you in Tieyan Village."

Uriel was taken aback: "Aren't we going together?"

Amy laughed and said, "You're just a plumber, bringing along a stunning beauty like me. Isn't your behavior a bit too conspicuous?"

Uriel, that's unbelievable! A peerless beauty? You're way too arrogant.

Even so, Uriel couldn't help feeling disappointed. He seemed to finally understand why some small business owners, who weren't even wealthy, loved to bring beautiful women to events—it was a symbol of a successful man's power. In reality, Uriel didn't need to prove anything, but now, in the game, he was a small business owner, and he finally understood…

Meanwhile, on the live stream, Sila was increasingly at a disadvantage, and the healing effect of the amnesiac guardian was becoming less and less effective. Looking at the dragon at the bottom of the valley, its entire body was already stained red with demonic blood; was it still unable to break free and escape?
Then the amnesiac guardian spoke again: "Warrior, my current strength is far from sufficient to help you win, but I can probably help you escape. Please act according to your ability and retreat in time."

Sila has always had the temperament of a rich heiress, and this kind of half-heartedness is like a futile attempt to reach a high point. How can she tolerate it?

Sila was somewhat out of her mind: "It's because I'm not strong enough! But... I will fight! Even if... there's only a 100% chance of me holding on..."

How much? Sila was a little confused. Could he afford the cost of failure? If he failed, he'd be resurrected in prison. Then his entire strategy would be ruined!
Gabriel grew impatient: "Boss...make a decision."

Michael was also anxious; he couldn't predict the outcome of this tense situation! What would be the cost of escaping? Would it merely mean losing all of the Black Dragon Lord's favor?

Just then, the dragon let out a trembling groan! The echo of this groan shook the valley, and the surrounding snow fell down as if a small avalanche had been launched!
This is the Dragon King's power! He's starting to activate it?!
Sila stopped hesitating and went all in, even if it meant using her ultimate move that lowered the attribute cap!
Sila replied to the amnesiac guardian deity: "Guardian deity, I will fight to the death!"

The amnesiac guardian exclaimed excitedly, "Your bravery reminds me once again of the apocalyptic war a thousand years ago, where we fought to the death. I... I remember now, I have control over gems, and you seem to possess some very powerful gems?"

That's right, it was a dozen or so broken divine sparks from ordinary sand demons that Da Chun and the Fusion Divine Spark gave together. As divine sparks, they weren't very good, but as gems, they were quite high-end! Giving them to the players in the merchant guild would be an absolute waste.

Sila was overjoyed: "Yes, I'm willing to use it!"

The amnesiac guardian solemnly said, "Very well, I will pour all my power into these gems. I won't be able to heal you during this time, so hold on with all your might!"

—System notification: The amnesiac guardian has begun infusing the energy gem!
It's the "Gem Bomb" from Gem City!?

Ordinary gem bombs can produce effects similar to hand grenades, so we can only wait and see what kind of power the divine essence infused by the guardian deity can unleash. Success or failure hinges on this moment!
...Da Chun honked his horn northwards and could already see the distant, continuous snow-capped mountains.

This reminded Da Chun of the snow-capped mountains he saw when he and Xiao Mei, the Water Element, went to the Arctic. The snow-capped mountains back then had spacetime beacons that looked like large prisms on their peaks. Were there any like that on the snow-capped mountains here? If so, then there must be a spacetime route. And since he, as a senior administrator, had just mastered the "Perception of Spacetime Routes," maybe he could find Xiao Mei and ask her for help in a critical moment.

Just as I was pondering this, a system notification popped up: "The artifact Frost Dragon Horn has received a response from the Dragon Soul!"

It's finally connected!

This time, unlike the simple response he received when collecting dragon souls in the void, it was a clear dragon's language: "This is my horn!"

It really is it! Da Chun replied directly in dragon language: "I'm here to save you!"

The Dragon King was shocked: "You understand dragon language, and you can even speak it?"

That attitude!

Da Chun was overjoyed! The Dragon Language he had learned earlier was finally putting to good use! Unlike himself, who had studied foreign languages ​​for so many years but never had the chance to speak with a foreigner even once.

Before Da Chun could reply, the Dragon King said, "Don't come any closer, I'll come out myself!"

Da Chun was surprised: "Why?"

Isn't it said that Sila is at a disadvantage?

Dragon King: "I must protect the descendants of my people. You cannot be implicated in saving me. You can stop now."

That's true! With my current identity, organizing a challenge against the 72 Demon Gods already offends a lot of powerful forces. It's only because of the interest in eliminating the Emperor's servant demons that the CEO sister is willing to protect me.

If I were to directly break them out of prison, even the CEO wouldn't be able to protect me! I wouldn't be able to survive in hell!

Da Chun was still hesitant: "Can you come out?"

The Dragon King laughed: "I actually let a little guy question my abilities. Don't worry, you've already given me a huge boost."

Ok!

Da Chun had no choice but to signal to Di Lian: "Di Lian, stop and rest, and wait for news from the Dragon King."

"Okay father."

Just then, Yulia spoke up: "Guild Master, is it really possible to rescue the Dragon King?"

Da Chun seemed to have guessed: "So Julia means to rescue that Blood Demon Lord as well?"

Julia sighed, "Yes, this was an ancestor of my vampire clan, who was punished by the Demon God Temple for his poor performance in battle..."

Da Chun asked in surprise, "But I don't know where the Blood Demon Lord is imprisoned either?"

Yulia said, "Although the three floors of the Treasure Shop appear to be alternate dimensions leading to various high-end prisoners, these passageways are actually quite demanding to maintain. So, from a cost perspective, these alternate dimensions are probably just one large space that has been separated. Therefore, there is a certain probability that my ancestor is near the Dragon King."

Oh, this kind of thing! I'm almost embarrassed to upgrade Old Dragon's strength. But with Ten Elders around, it's pointless not to upgrade it.

Da Chun asked again through the Frost Horn, "Dragon King, if you run alone, you'll attract too much attention. Why not take a fellow prisoner with you? I wonder if the Blood Demon Lord is nearby?"

The Dragon King said, "Interesting. I happen to have quite a bit of blood here. Wait for my news..."

The message has been delivered, so let's wait.

Top Ten Chat Group.

Without the guardian's healing, Sila was in grave danger and it seemed she wouldn't even last long enough for the gem infusion. However, the Dragon King's actions became increasingly intense, clearly diverting a lot of the security captain's attention. In addition, Sila's extreme maneuvers, which were not possible when she was at zero health, finally resulted in—System notification: The incomplete divine gem infusion is complete. Do you wish to use it?
use!

Sila is using it like crazy!!
Sila flung out a dozen or so small orbs of light. In that instant, Sila felt the surrounding space suddenly freeze, and the orbs of light stopped flying so fast. So she could see clearly that these were not orbs of light at all, but rather a dozen miniature galaxies!

Faced with the slowly thrown ball of light, the security angel was also shocked and moved. His movements were as still as if he were in water, but he still had enough time to react and raise his shield to block!
The Milky Way crashed into the shield with a deafening roar, the Milky Way exploded, and Sila's screen was filled with white light!
Then came a series of explosions, and the screen flashed white light repeatedly. Sila immediately put on sunglasses to filter the light and saw that his shield had been smashed and tilted, and he was also tilted and unable to maintain his posture in the air. A series of galaxies took advantage of the situation and exploded on his crystal armor one after another. His metallic energy shield also collapsed like an eggshell. He could no longer hold on and began to fall!
Gonna win!
At this moment, the chat group, which had been holding its breath and remaining silent, erupted in cheers!
But the next moment, a deafening roar echoed through the valley, chains rattled, and Xila's headphones vibrated violently, emitting a constant buzzing. Sunglasses saw it: the dragon moved, rising like a mountain peak, then snapping its jaws around the falling security captain and swallowing him whole!
It swallowed her again! This is the terrifying power of giant creatures! What's even more terrifying is that with this swallow, Sila has essentially wasted half a day's effort, getting nothing but experience points for leveling up and no other equipment drops.

Fortunately, this also means that this powerful being will provide the dragon with a large amount of nutrition, far exceeding the magical blood of the ordinary soldiers in the valley!

Then the dragon began to pull the chains frantically, and every time it broke a chain, it caused a landslide, followed by an avalanche!
Breaking free was inevitable. All Sila could do was fly far away, sit down, rest, and watch his performance.

They also reported to the guardian deity: "Guardian deity, we have won."

The guardian's voice was extremely weak: "That's great, I'm tired and sleepy."

Xila also felt quite sorry for him: "You must get some rest, sir."

Raphael's attention wasn't on the dragon: "Replay that gem bomb in slow motion."

Then Raphael paused the screen recording: "Perhaps I know who this guardian is. It is very likely the guardian of the Holy Emerald City. Only the guardian of such a gem city has such profound gem control ability, not to mention that she is just a remnant soul."

Michael nodded: "That makes sense. The City of the Emerald is near the City of the War Angels, and it was indeed among the first to come to support us during the Doomsday War."

Xila exclaimed, "Now that I know who she is, I can buy gems specifically to train her!"

Raphael sighed, "That's right, but the cost of gems is probably beyond what poor nun Sila can afford."

Sila smiled proudly: "Once I become the guild leader, I'll have plenty of ways to get my hands on gems..."
