Chapter 502: The Mermaids Drown Dragon City!

Boom!
In the sky above Dragon City, a storm was raging. Lightning bolts were slithering among the dark clouds like snakes.
A green Flood Dragon that was more than five hundred meters long and a yellow dragon that was about three hundred meters long mauled each other amidst the dark clouds!
Judging from the sizes of the two parties, the green Flood Dragon should have obvious advantages.
That was exactly the truth.
“Human beings, you think you can stop me with a fake dragon that you produced with earthen energy? How naive!”
The green Flood Dragon tore off part of the yellow dragon and made it dimmer while it roared and transmitted messages telepathically without using the human language!
Boom!
As it roared, the dark clouds around it roiled violently, and the thick lightning bolts struck down, leaving glittering silver trajectories behind.
Apart from that, a lot of water drops, which were contaminated by the aura around the green Flood Dragon, turned green and fell upon the heads of the panicked crowd in Dragon City.
“Roar!”
On the top of the Eagle Peak to the east of Dragon City, the Azure Dragon, which was three hundred meters long, appeared and roared.
A lot of Power of Thunder was attracted to it beyond control and then swallowed.
However, the Azure Dragon seemed unsteady under the strike of the lightning bolts!
“Roar!”
In the science center in the west, the White Tiger, which was almost three hundred meters tall, faced the lightning strikes rather easily.
It was because the moment before the overwhelming lightning bolts hit it, the Silver Liquid pool in the science center suddenly radiated and generated an attraction force that lured the lightning away.
Under the rules of the Land of Inheritance, even the divine methods were still restrained by the Transcendent technologies of the same level.
However, there was still a storm besides the lightning.
The storm that had turned green was quite horrifying. When the storm hit the yellow dragon that was fighting the green Flood Dragon, it corroded and broke its scales.
When the storm hit the walls of Dragon City, it caused holes that looked like those made when one poured boiling oil into the snow. It was not hard to imagine that no one below the Transcendent level was able to resist it!
Fortunately, the Five Direction Feng Shui Formation had condensed five divine beasts in total!
“Caw!”
In the south, above the Demon Volcano.
The Vermilion Bird, whose wingspan was more than three hundred meters, flapped its fiery wings that reddened half of the sky and raised flames that vaporized the falling rains.
Furthermore, a lot of the flames turned into smaller Vermilion Birds and tried to vaporize the clouds in the sky. However, they exploded and collapsed into flames when the green Flood Dragon’s tail hit it!
The yellow dragon, the Azure Dragon, the Vermilion Bird, and the White Tiger...
The four divine beasts only managed to resist the green Flood Dragon’s attack by working together.
But it was not good enough to resolve the crisis yet.
It was because the greatest danger for Dragon City was not the green Flood Dragon in the sky that was releasing Extraordinary Rank-3 power or above...
“Roarrrr!”
In the north of Dragon City lay the Black Tortoise, the last component of the Five Direction Feng Shui Formation.
It was even bigger than any of the other four divine beasts. It was more than four hundred meters tall, and its coverage was even more astonishing. The snake that was attached to it was already as large as any of the other divine beasts!
However, the opponent it was facing was even bigger than itself!
Boom!
To the north of Dragon City, where the Mirage Monsters previously lived, all the seawater rose a hundred meters tall and was rolling towards Dragon City.
In the middle of the rising seawater, there were humanoid creatures who had human upper bodies and faces. However, unlike normal humans, they had colorful scales on their cheeks. Underneath their charming clothes were not legs but fish tails with forked ends.
[Mermaid]
[Level: Extraordinary Rank-7]
[Rarity: Quasi-Commander]
[Description: It’s said that mermaids live in the water like fish and are good at embroidery. Their tears can transform into pearls. They can also charm other creatures in the sea with their songs!]
Yes, mermaids!
Those mermaids, similar to the Metal Men and the Dense Fog race, were creatures that were born with Extraordinary power.
At this moment, there were more than five thousand mermaids in the rising water!
The seawater couldn’t have been lifted so high if the five thousand mermaids hadn’t utilized their natural water controlling ability together.
The five thousand Extraordinary mermaids weren’t the only enemy.
Some of the mermaids were holding ribbons that reflected different colors under the sunlight. The other end of the ribbon was connected to other sea monsters.
There were the Snapping Dragon Turtles, the Tiger-striped Sharks, the Clone Squids, the Giant Shrimps, the Conqueror Jellyfish, etc. Compared to the Snapping Dragon Turtle Warships that Dragon City had, the Snapping Dragon Turtles that the mermaids tamed like pets were much bigger, and they were all above Extraordinary Rank-5!
Furthermore, some of the threads in the hands of the mermaids had tied up Transcendent creatures.
For example, there was a super sea beast that was completely red in color. It had a thick shell above its head and was five hundred meters long and as big as a small island.
[Dragon Fish]
[Level: Transcendent Rank-2]
[Rarity: Commander]
[Description: This is a creature that has the bloodlines of dragons and a legendary fish. It’s almost irresistible to lives below the Transcendent level!]
It was hard to imagine what a length of five hundred meters meant.
It must be noted that the largest airship on Earth was only three hundred meters long, and if a creature’s length was increased, its size would increase three times faster!
With such an enormous body size, even if this Dragon Fish was poor at fighting, it could still destroy the enemy targets easily.
As a matter of fact, the Dragon Fish was holding a ship that was golden and about fifty meters long.
This Golden Tower Ship was one of the spoils after Dragon City defeated Fang La’s troops. It was a powerful “heavy treasure”, second only to the flagship in the navy forces.
How was the ship, which was supposed to be powerful, bitten and caught by this Dragon Fish?
It was because the navy base of Dragon City had been crashed and destroyed by the enormous Dragon Fish. The entire fleet was almost wiped out.
Even the modern iron warships that Dragon City built recently could barely resist the Dragon Fish that was too gigantic!
The gap between them was too huge.
Maybe, in terms of Transcendent power, the Dragon Fish was only Transcendent Rank-2.
However, considering physical strength, perhaps even the Transcendent Rank-4 and Rank-5 creatures couldn’t compare to it!
One Dragon Fish had destroyed the heavily defended navy base. Besides a dozen sea beasts that released a Transcendent vibe like the Dragon Fish, there was a five-digit number of Extraordinary sea beasts.
What did ten thousand Extraordinary warriors mean?
Even the entire Dragon City didn’t have so many Extraordinary members.
While a lot of Extraordinary Souls of Civilization were acquired after the settlements of the yakshas and the Dense Fog race were destroyed, there weren’t enough Extraordinary offerings available.
After Old Demon Black Mountain was defeated, there were enough offerings, but there was no time to perform rituals!
Boom! Boom!
The seawater was still rising.
Clearly, the mermaids intended to drown Dragon City, exactly like how the heroes of Dragon City worked together to drown the Magma Monsters’ settlement.
However, Dragon City wasn’t the attacker but the defender this time.
“We cannot let the mermaids break through the city protection formation!”
In the City Master’s residence, Elder Meng, who was watching the battlefield via the SkyNet, said solemnly.
However, it wasn’t easy to stop the mermaids at all.
It was true that Dragon City had a navy force and more than three thousand marines.
All of them could stay in the water for half a day, and they were more familiar with the sea than they were with the continent!
However, that was a comparison with the continent creatures. However familiar a human might be with the sea, they could not compare to the creatures who were born and raised in the seas.
After all, such creatures had structural advantages in their bodies that human beings couldn’t compare.
In fact, after the navy base was broken, most of the marines had been ripped apart and devoured as food by the sea beasts before they could run away.
The Dragon Fish alone had swallowed almost a hundred people, including two Extraordinary Rank-8 heroes.
Crack!
The Dragon Fish roared and chewed the golden warship, before it swallowed it down.
Boom!
Then, it moved like an island and hit the Black Tortoise heavily. As a result, the Black Tortoise, which was as large but not as real as the Dragon Fish, trembled heavily and was even pushed back.
“It seems that the Five Direction Feng Shui Formation is reaching its limits!”
In the city master’s residence at Dragon City, Su Nongying changed her expression as she looked at the rising seawater.
“Can he make it back in time?”
She felt uncertain for the first time.
The mermaids were just as strong as Dragon City.
Also, because they carried a significant amount of seawater, they didn’t have the terrain disadvantages that the city attackers usually had.
At the same time, countless enormous sea beasts were crashing into the Five Direction Feng Shui Formation with their bodies.
The Black Tortoise was only able to resist such a huge amount of seawater because the settlement core of Dragon City had advanced into Transcendent Rank-3 and was powering it with the enormous power of providence and because the remaining defenders in Dragon City had set up military formations and split some of the pressure with the 28 Mansion flags that the Liao army left behind.
However, it was based on a formation that had an upper limit!
In particular, the formation was not just under the pressure of mermaids.
The clouds that were right above Dragon City were generated by the green Flood Dragon with a divine method. As a result, the Celestial Seismograph could only remove some of them and couldn’t change the weather entirely.
After all, although the Celestial Seismograph was a heavy treasure, it wasn’t of a high level.
Therefore, the rainwater joined the seawater and made it rise even faster. The tides were even higher than any buildings in Dragon City, and they were only lower than the dragon peak.
It meant that once the Five Direction Feng Shui Formation was destroyed, the entire Dragon City would be inundated.
In such a case, even if the Transcendent heroes of Dragon City returned, there was nothing they could do to save the day.
