Chapter 430 - 178: Warships to Ash with a Wave, Supreme NPC? Come, Let Me See Your...

PFFT!

PFFT!

PFFT!

Once Shen Fei attacked, he had no intention of stopping. A single, silent Cluster Attack instantly shattered the Boundary Wall of the special region, and more of his attacks followed in quick succession.

Then, under everyone’s shocked gazes, the slowly moving tidal wave was silently riddled with holes of varying sizes and from different angles, as if it were a giant piece of cheese.

"Take this!"

The players in Ye City were all stunned. Only Zhao Li, who had already witnessed this scene in the Game World, remained calm. Seeing that Shen Fei had made his move and had already torn the so-called Boundary Wall to shreds, Zhao Li didn’t hesitate. He immediately followed Shen Fei’s lead and unleashed his own most powerful attack.

BOOM!

Boundless lightning materialized directly above the perforated tidal wave, followed by an endless, furious barrage of thunderbolts raining down. With the Boundary Wall broken by Shen Fei, the power of Zhao Li’s attacks was no longer drastically reduced. His full power as an Immortal Emperor was finally on full display.

With Shen Fei and Zhao Li’s sudden assault, the various NPCs and Super Bosses, who had been strutting around arrogantly just moments before, suffered heavy casualties and fell into chaos in almost an instant.

"What’s happening?!"

"Why?!"

"Where did it go?!"

Within the special region, atop the massive tidal wave, an ancient emperor roared in fury. He was an NPC from some game who had lived for thousands of years and possessed extraordinary Combat Power.

He wasn’t roaring because of the crackling lightning overhead that was blasting his subordinates to pieces or making them tremble uncontrollably. Nor was he roaring because of the mysterious, silent attack that created all sorts of holes and made people vanish without a trace.

He was screaming because he had discovered that, three seconds ago, a [Heroic Mark] had suddenly appeared in the barter channel of the [Ninth World].

A few days ago, this ancient emperor, inherited from the Game World, had gained access to the [Ninth World]. Using its remote trading function, he had quickly consolidated the forces within a radius of over ten thousand kilometers in his region. The ancient emperor considered the Ninth World to be his greatest opportunity since being brought into reality.

A few hours ago, he happened to not be logged into the [Ninth World], only to later discover that he had missed out on an unparalleled item of extreme importance to NPCs and Super Bosses—the Heroic Mark.

After searching for all sorts of information, the ancient emperor, in his capacity as an alliance leader, brought over the likes of "Sun Wukong," "Pigsy," and "Thanos" to search for clues on Great Xia’s soil. He never expected that before he could even cross swords with the human players of Great Xia, another [Heroic Mark] would appear in the barter section of the [Ninth World], which he was constantly monitoring.

The overjoyed ancient emperor wanted to buy it instantly. To seize this potential opportunity, he had already prepared 100 billion Credit Points, keeping them on hand and ready to use at a moment’s notice. To his surprise, however, the newly appeared [Heroic Mark] wasn’t for sale, but for trade. The item required for the exchange was a resurrection item.

Although he had never heard of a resurrection item, he was determined to get the [Heroic Mark], which granted Invincibility and immunity to Devouring. Just as he was preparing to continue pressuring the lands of Great Xia while also arranging for his men to search for information on the so-called resurrection item, his connection to the Ninth World was suddenly severed.

In an instant, he lost his link to the Ninth World. No matter how many times he tried to reconnect, he could no longer sense it. He considered the [Ninth World] his most important opportunity, second only to being inherited into reality. Now that the Ninth World had vanished, the emperor, overcome with rage, cried out.

While roaring, he angrily turned his head to look at an NPC he had recruited, one who also had permission to link to the Ninth World. He then saw the NPC staring back at him with a look of panic on its face. Clearly, it had also lost its connection to the Ninth World.

BOOM!

Just as he was about to say something, the ancient emperor shuddered violently. He saw the NPC he had just been looking at vanish without a trace. In the seawater where it had been, a huge empty void appeared.

"Retreat!"

The link to the Ninth World was gone, and a silent, undetectable attack was rapidly annihilating everything. The emperor, who possessed a natural luck Aura, wanted to flee immediately.

Previously, in the region of the Pacific Ocean that had completely turned into a special zone, his territory happened to be the one closest to Great Xia. Therefore, after receiving information from the so-called "Brother Kaipan," he was the first to lead his men and charge into the lands of Great Xia.

Then, he discovered that his good luck had vanished.

Stuck inside the special region, he couldn’t attack the humans outside through the Boundary Wall. All he could do was control the seawater, mindlessly pushing forward and shoving the Boundary Wall ahead of him to smash through everything. He never imagined that here, where the human players and the city of Great Xia were located, someone could actually shatter the Boundary Wall and land attacks from the outside directly into the special region.

Moreover, they had inflicted such immense damage. More importantly, after the Boundary Wall was broken, he discovered that the NPCs and Super Bosses, who weren’t supposed to be able to die within the special region, were being completely annihilated without a trace.
