Chapter 40: Reinforcements? Destroy the City!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The moment the system announcement was sent out, it proved that the Exotic Beasts’ invasion of Ledda City was anything but a rumor.

At the same time, it announced to everyone that Mike was in Ledda City, defending against the invasion of Exotic Beasts!

The public opinion was immediately reversed. The people who had originally insisted that everything was aimed towards slandering the various palaces were all silent at this moment.

The voices opposing the various palaces once again gained the upper hand.

“The various palaces are too shameless!”

“Ledda City is under such a great threat, yet they only care about whether or not they’ve been slandered or not. What about reinforcements?”

“All the cities are in the hands of the various palaces, yet the various palaces don’t care if we get hurt?”

“The various palaces are such hypocrites.”

“I think it’s time for humans to unite and oppose the various palaces! They don’t stand on the same side as our Planet Earth at all, nor do they even stand on the side of ordinary people. They don’t even care about their own natives from Miracle.”

“Let’s unite and oppose the various palaces!”

“It was Mike who actually came to support Ledda City.”

“Mike is ten thousand times better than the various palaces.”

…

Faced with the new situation, the various palaces were quickly discussing.

“These humans are all looking for death.” The higher-ups of the Heavenly King’s Palace were very angry.

“They actually want to unite and oppose the various palaces. Do they know what they’re saying? If they oppose the various palaces, they won’t have any hope of advancing!”

“It’s a pity that we’re restricted. Otherwise, we would have killed all these Earthlings.”

“The restrictions will eventually disappear.”

“The question is, what should we do? Let those humans rebel?”

After a series of arguments, they finally concluded.

“Send reinforcements to Ledda City.” The higher-ups of the Heavenly King’s Palace suggested. “However, the main point of doing that isn’t to support Ledda City, but to kill Mike who’s currently in it! Once he dies, we’ll fight the Exotic Beasts as much as we can, but if the losses are too great, then we stop fighting. In either case, we’ll be able to take the credit in the end and gain back our good reputation.”

“Mm, I will do it right away.”

“Remember to inform this to the rest of the various palaces.”

…

[Voice Transmission Channel]

[Heavenly King’s Palace: After a long period of preparation, the Heavenly King’s Palace has finally formed a group of powerful support forces and is rushing towards Ledda City. Please rest assured, Heavenly King’s Palace is with everyone.]

The other palaces did the same and released their own statements.

Although the World Channel was still filled with voices of dissatisfaction towards the various palaces, since they had already sent reinforcements, they were finally doing something good.

The people of Ledda City were currently broadcasting the situation in the chat channels.

[World Channel]

“F*ck, Mike!”

“Mike is too powerful.”

“You guys should have seen it for yourselves. The sky was raining fire and all the Exotic Beasts were burned to death.”

“Mike is that strong?!”

“Yes! There’s no need for the various palaces to send reinforcements at all because the Exotic Beasts have already been mostly cleaned up.”

…

Above Ledda City.

Mike had killed all the Exotic Beasts in the city and looked out at the beasts outside the city. Most of them had already been burned to death, but their leader was still alive.

The Overlord-Tier Exotic Beast was still alive, and the traitors stood beside it.

At this moment, many airships suddenly appeared in the sky. There were signs of people from the various palaces on them.

“Reporting!”

The airship crew reported to their superiors. “Ledda City turned into a sea of fire. There are no signs of Exotic Beasts. The Exotic Beasts inside and outside the city have been mostly cleaned up.”

“What?” The higher-ups on the airships were all stunned.

Mike was that powerful?

Then what were they doing here?

A leisurely day tour?

“None of the Exotic Beasts are alive?” The superior asked.

“A Level 100 Exotic Beast has been detected!”

Soon, they found something.

“The strongest Exotic Beast is still alive.”

Hearing this, not only were the palaces not worried, but they were actually quite happy.

“Try to make contact with it,” the higher-ups said.

On the mountain top stood the Overlord-Tier Exotic Beast. It was very angry, but it was also afraid. The Rain of Fire was too powerful. It knew that there was a chance it might not be able to withstand it.

“Sir.”

At this moment, an Earthling traitor received the news and looked at the Overlord-Tier Exotic Beast.

“Look at those airships in the sky. Those are the reinforcements from the various palaces. However, they are trying to contact us now, hoping to cooperate with us.”

After the translation, the Level 100 Overlord-Tier Exotic Beast, who had a sense of intelligence, understood.

“Roar!” it replied.

What cooperation did they want?

“They have a grudge against Mike and Mike is in Ledda City.” The Earthling traitor sent a message. “The various palaces hope to cooperate with us and kill Mike together!”

“Roar!”

“Sir, don’t worry. The hatred between the various palaces and Mike isn’t just some temporary thing. It’s absolutely reliable,” the Earthling traitor said.

“Roar!” The Overlord-Tier Exotic Beast agreed.

In the sky inside the airship, the crew of the airship reported to their superior. “It agreed. But, it’s very cautious. It hopes that we’ll make a move first before it’s willing to follow. It seems a little timid.”

“Exotic Beasts are so cowardly.” The superior shook his head in disdain. “It doesn’t matter. As long as Mike dies, anything works. Kill Mike and then claim the credit for the cleanup of the Exotic Beasts as the work of our various palaces. Everyone will be happy.”

Kill Mike, then snatch Mike’s credit. This was the plan of the various palaces.

The airship approached Ledda City.

“Reinforcements are coming!” The people of Ledda City saw the airship, but they were not very happy.

“They didn’t come when the problem was serious before, but now that the problem has been solved, they came running instead. They are probably coming to claim credit. How disgusting.”

“They run when there is trouble and come back when everything’s done. How wretched.”

“This is the first time I’ve seen how hypocritical the various palaces are.”

“It’s still better than not coming, right? At least they can help to build back Ledda City.”

The people in Ledda City discussed animatedly. They stared at the airships and waited for them to arrive.

However, the airships suddenly lit up and many strong explosive objects fell from the airships.

It fell slowly and landed on the ground.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The ground exploded.

The aftershock was deadly.

“F*ck!”

The people in Ledda City immediately cried out in surprise.

“The airships of the palaces are not here to support us, but to kill us!!”

“I actually overestimated how low the palaces can go!”

“Aren’t they a bit too shameless?!”

“They might as well not come!!”

Everyone in Ledda City sent this situation to the World Channel one after another.

Meanwhile, in the various palaces.

They immediately responded in the Voice Transmission Channel saying that they were all just rumors.

The various palaces claimed that they were doing their best to support Ledda City and were exterminating those Exotic Beasts.

“As long as we kill everyone in Ledda City and Mike, then the credit would belong to us.”

The airship commander wasn’t worried at all.

“Time will cover up the truth. As for Ledda City, leave no one alive!”

Countless airships blotted out the sky, bombarding Ledda City.

“The various palaces are extremely disgusting!”

“They’re even more shameless than Exotic Beasts! At least the beasts won’t kill each other.”

…

“Roar!”

When the Overlord-Tier Exotic Beast saw the airship had really started to bombard Ledda City, it believed the sincerity of the various palaces inviting it to cooperate.

Boom!

The Overlord-Tier Exotic Beast stomped on the ground and suddenly jumped into the vicinity of Ledda City. It opened its mouth wide, and a condensed energy cannon shot out from its mouth.

With a ‘bang’, the walls of Ledda City exploded into rocks and debris that flew everywhere.

The walls of Ledda City have been smashed apart like tofu.

“The Level 100 Exotic Beast is here!!”

Everyone in Ledda City was in despair. On one side, they were being bombarded by the various palaces’ airships, on the other side, they were being blocked by a Level 100 Exotic Beast.

Ledda City would be completely destroyed, and not a single person would be able to escape.

“I wonder if Mike can hold on?”

Some people placed their hopes on Mike.

“It was already extremely difficult task for him to clean up those Exotic Beasts. Let’s hope that he can escape. He is our greatest hope for revenge against the various palaces. We can’t let him die here!”

“Right!”

“Let’s hope that Mike can escape.”
