C5 Winged Dragon King(part II)

"It looks like I'll have to find out for myself. Otherwise, the defensive light barrier of our Star City won't be able to hold on for too long, especially with the Winged Dragon King continuously attacking it.

A gruff voice sounded out at a military base in the central area of Star City. It came from a man in his fifties with a bright star on his shoulder as he spoke to the people around him.

"This … General Wang, you can't. The Winged Dragon King has gone completely mad. Even with your strength, going up there would be suicide. We should ask the military to advise us on what to do. We should stand back and see what the other side will do first."

A middle-aged man wearing glasses anxiously retorted.

In spite of his appearance, the four stars with two stripes on his shoulders indicated that he was a senior colonel.

"Alright. But still, although the Star City's defensive light barrier can hold on for a long time, it will consume one spirit crystal per minute. Given our limited reserves, we won't be able to hold on for too long.

I've already notified the City Lord but he only told me to try to delay the monster for a while. He'll be back very soon."

As soon as he spoke, the man's body glitched as if he had teleported and he disappeared.

When he reappeared, he was already floating in the air above Star City.

"Winged Dragon King, I am from the Star City's Military Department. I don't know why you are so angry, but please don't attack Star City first. Let us talk things out."

Across the protective light barrier, Wang Chao flew up to confront the Winged Dragon King, making sure to maintain a safe distance from him.

"Hmph, this detestable human still has the audacity to talk to me. If it weren't for the City Lord, I would have completely destroyed you.

Otherwise, do you really think you can withstand my attack? You can't stop me even with a barrier between us.

It's better for you to leave now. Bring your City Lord Hong Feng over, you are not worthy to communicate with me."

Upon hearing Wang Chao's question, the Winged Dragon King directly communicated to him through his thoughts.

Although the Demonic Beasts on Earth were highly intelligent, they couldn't speak verbally. Even the kings couldn't do so, and they could only communicate through their spiritual will.

Sensing the powerful aura emanating from the Winged Dragon King, Wang Chao found it hard to breathe despite being a deity-level expert.

As expected of a king level demonic beast, his aura was comparable to a human king level expert.

"Alright, then may I ask you to stop your attacks, Dragon King? I have already notified the City Lord and he will be coming over soon."

Upon hearing the Dragon King's voice transmission, Wang Chao hurriedly spoke before he could change his mind.

The Winged Dragon King's huge eyes stared at Wang Chao momentarily before abruptly decided to soar into the sky. It hovered at a certain height, effectively stopping its attacks.

However, the contained fury within his eyes highlighted his inner rage.

As for why he was so enraged, no one knew.

Just then, Zhang Fan and Hu Zhi also hurried into a crowded building.

This was the place where they had lived for 17 years since they were young—the South Bay District.

This was a cheap rental area that was funded by the Chinese government.

As a low-rent residential area, the efficiency of land usage in the surrounding areas had also reached a limit. Each residential building was merely a giant rectangular concrete pillar. There didn't seem to be much thought into the spacing between each pillar.

It was a fantasy to even enjoy the sunshine while residing there.

But even so, Zhang Fan and Hu Zhi's families were already very satisfied with this.

At least, compared to over a hundred years ago, it was much better now that there was no longer any housing pressure.

Zhang Fan and Hu Zhi's home. They all resided in the same building.2

All the residential areas in the South Bay District were forty-eight stories high.

Both of them lived on the 33rd floor.

After bidding each other farewell, they took out their keys and opened the door to their respective houses.
