The job change is a bizarre and calamity; the nation begs me to tone it down.

"no problem."

Gu Xu readily agreed.

"in addition--"

Zhang Daoxuan's voice suddenly became solemn: "General Gu, the military will record tonight's events truthfully, whether it's the intelligence from the secret realm of Chuyun Ghost Domain or the results of the battle on the northern battlefield."

"Your contributions will not be forgotten by the nation."

However, just as Gu Xu was thinking about asking for overtime pay...

Suddenly, a burst of noise came through the communication channel.

It was as if someone rushed into Zhang Daoxuan's command center, speaking rapidly as they reported something.

The sound was not very clear, but Gu Xu relied on his greatly enhanced perception after the fourth transformation.

I still managed to vaguely glean a few keywords.

"Source-level signal", "High-speed approach", "Southward".

Gu Xu's brow twitched slightly.

The noise in the communication lasted for about five or six seconds.

Then Zhang Daoxuan's voice rang out again, but this time it was serious.

"General Gu."

"I am here."

"We have just received an urgent report from the former energy monitoring station that a source-level energy signal moving at high speed has been detected approximately 12,000 kilometers from your current location."

"Direction of movement: due south."

"Based on the current speed, it will reach the northern defense line in a maximum of fifteen minutes."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Xu raised an eyebrow.

This was mentioned in the information I had previously obtained from Lu Xingchen.

The Yalong Royal Court deployed a total of three Source-level units for this invasion.

Two came to Sherlock Holmes, and one went to the Northern League.

He has now resolved both of them.

And this one that's on its way...

It was undoubtedly the one who went to attack the Northern Alliance.

"Ignatius, the Dragon King".

Zhang Daoxuan announced the name: "According to the previous intelligence, this dragon is the strongest of the three dragon kings in terms of attack power. It is a fire-attribute source-level dragon and is skilled in large-scale destructive attacks."

He paused for a moment.

"General Gu, this dragon likely sensed the fall of the other two dragon kings and thus came here on its own initiative."

"Their specific intentions are unclear... They may be here to confirm the situation, or they may be here for revenge."

"But no matter which one it is, please be very careful."

Having said all that, Zhang Daoxuan had revealed everything he needed to.

The rest was beyond his control.

After all, this level of battle is not something a saint like him can interfere with.

"understood."

Upon hearing this, Gu Xu nodded.

The communication was disconnected.

Gu Xu turned his gaze away from the communication device, tilted his head slightly, and looked at the north-northwest sky.

At the same time, mental energy spread out in that direction like a tide.

After the fourth transformation, the range of perception is more than ten times larger than before.

Wherever spiritual power passes, the earth, sky, air currents, temperature—all information is captured.

Then, he felt it.

At the horizon, a crimson light streaked across the night sky at an alarming speed.

The light was so hot that even the air it passed through was turned to ash.

It left a fiery trail that stretched for tens of kilometers behind it.

From a distance, it looks like a falling shooting star.

Gu Xu raised an eyebrow.

"Oh?"

The saints behind them also noticed something amiss.

Dozens of people turned their gazes to the northern horizon.

His face instantly darkened.

Clearly, they sensed it too.

That intensely hot, suffocating energy surge was approaching at an extremely rapid pace.

The hearts of the dozens of saints had barely settled down for two minutes before they were on edge again.

But this time, while I was nervous, my fear wasn't as intense as before.

the reason is simple.

Gu Xu is still standing here.

He crushed two Source-level beings like ants just now, so what if there's another one now?

If all else fails, I can just make another one.

Although such an idea would have been considered a pipe dream in the past.

But after witnessing Gu Xu's methods firsthand, they truly believed it.

"Commander Gu."

Lu Xingchen stepped forward and asked in a deep voice, "What do you need us to do?"

Gu Xu turned his head and glanced at him.

"you?"

He thought for a moment: "Just stand back a bit."

After saying this, Gu Xu turned his gaze back to the northern horizon.

The crimson meteor was getting closer and closer.

A scorching heat swept in from afar, making the air dry and sweltering.

"That saves us trouble."

Gu Xu muttered to himself, a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth: "It saves me the trouble of making another trip to the Northern Alliance."

He stood there, hands in his pockets, waiting for the shooting star to fall.

The night wind swept across the battlefield, stirring up dust and fragments of dragon scales.

The corpses of two Origin-level Dragon Kings and dozens of War Dragons still lay before him, their blood not yet dried.

……

Just as Gu Xu was waiting for Ignatius to come and die.

A higher-dimensional secret realm.

Wang Cang's fist slammed into the chest of a golden giant, and the gray-white domain power pierced through the opponent's body.

The giant's body exploded from the middle, scattering golden fragments everywhere.

But Wang Cang's face showed no sign of relaxation.

This was the 637th one he had killed.

"here we go again."

Old Ge's voice came from behind, his tone filled with barely suppressed irritation.

Sure enough, the giant that Wang Cang had just shattered, before its remains even hit the ground, began to turn into golden light particles.

They floated in the air one by one, like fireflies.

Then it drifted with the wind towards the distant crimson sphere.

Disappeared.

Wang Cang flicked the golden powder off his fist and squinted at the distance.

The situation on the battlefield was far worse than he had anticipated.

It's not just their Sheikh side.

Looking out, all the forces were fighting across the entire golden plain.

On the other side of the Lighthouse Kingdom, Jacob's domain was fully activated, and wherever the angel's gaze passed, countless giants exploded.

In the distance… the Skywalker monks of the South Indian Kingdom hovered in mid-air, their golden runes forming a net of light that continuously reaped the giants around them.

Olivier of Europe is also fighting.

The sword light was like a bolt of lightning, each strike capable of cleaving open the body of a giant.

It looks like they're having a pretty big fight.

But the problem is—it doesn't work.

Everyone is doing useless work.

Because these giants are endless, literally endless.

Wang Cang discovered the problem within the first five minutes.

Every Titan that is killed will turn into golden particles and dissipate at the moment of death.

These particles do not remain in place.

Instead, they drifted in the same direction—to that crimson sphere on the distant horizon.

That thing that looks like the sun.

And that "sun" would erupt approximately every three minutes.

The way it erupts is very simple.

The light on the surface of the sphere will suddenly become brighter, to the point of being blinding.

Then a ring of golden ripples spread out from the surface of the sphere, covering the entire plain.

After the ripples subsided, all the slain Titans were resurrected.

Not one is missing.

Those who were supposed to stand where they were still standing, and those who were supposed to walk towards you still walked towards you.

The mask was still that shattered smiling mask.

Their steps remained perfectly synchronized, as if the previous battle had never occurred.
