“This is no joke! Divina, if you have time, you can go to the family library and browse through the ancient books there. They record many interesting things!”

“If I have time, I will!” Divina nodded to her mother, then walked out of the tea room with a blank expression.

In the sunlit tea room, only the noblewoman remained, pondering her next move.

……

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

It's another peaceful and serene morning!

The first rays of morning sunlight shone through the gap in the curtains and fell on Tang Yu's face.

The man stretched and slowly got out of bed.

As a devoted family man, he has to prepare breakfast for his lovely Erii!

After quietly getting out of bed, Tang Yu went into the kitchen, put on a white apron, and began skillfully toasting bread slices.

This morning seems unusually quiet!

In the past, at this time, there would usually be drunk neighbors outside bragging and joking at a deafening volume.

But today, apart from the occasional bird call, there seems to be no other sound at all!

Tang Yu was puzzled by this unusual phenomenon, but he didn't pay too much attention to it.

Maybe those drunk neighbors all passed out today and haven't woken up yet!

"Ha... Yu, is breakfast ready?" Erii, still half asleep, yawned and came down the stairs.

"Everything's ready!" Tang Yu smiled and patted Erii's long hair. "Go and call Renata down for dinner!"

"Okay, Yu!" Erii picked up her nightgown and turned to go upstairs. Before going upstairs, the little monster didn't forget to turn around and give Tang Yu a word of advice.

"Ah Yu, remember to fry me my favorite fried egg! No pepper!"

"Alright! How could I forget the little monster's favorite fried egg?" Tang Yu smiled indulgently.

"Oh dear, Yu! Renata isn't in her room!" Erii rushed down the stairs just as Tang Yu was preparing to fry an egg.

"Not in her room? Where could she have gone so early in the morning? Did she go to a bar for drinks?"

"I don't know either!" The little monster shook its head honestly. "Why don't we go out and look for it?"

"I'll go out and look for her!" Tang Yu corrected Erii. "I'll go find Renata, Erii, you stay home and eat your meal! That's decided!"

Tang Yu placed the fried egg and sandwich next to Erii. Just as he changed his clothes and was about to go out, Renata, dressed in her combat suit, pushed open the door and walked in with a solemn expression.

"Renata, where have you been so early? I was just about to head out to find you! Breakfast is ready, come and eat!" Tang Yu called to Renata.

"Tang Yu, I'm afraid I won't have time to eat!" Renata's voice was unusually serious. "I just went out to investigate, and all the residents of this town have disappeared! They were most likely evacuated by the Secret Party Elders! This is not a good sign!"

"You mean... the elders evacuated the nearby residents?" Tang Yu rested his chin on his hand, a thoughtful look flashing in his eyes. "It seems they're preparing to deploy a weapon of mass destruction here!"

"My guess is pretty much the same as yours!" A rare look of urgency crossed the usually composed Renata's face. "Forget about eating, let's get back quickly! It'll be too late if we don't!"

"Retreat? Where can we retreat to!" Tang Yu's calmness contrasted sharply with Renata's anxiety.

"Let's eat first! People who eat are people who are superior to others! The world is vast, but eating is the most important thing! Let's fill our stomachs first, and then think about all that other stuff!" Tang Yu calmly stuffed a sandwich into his mouth.

"Why do you look so unhurried?" Tang Yu's composure unconsciously influenced Renata, who, despite her anxiety, calmly sat down and started eating breakfast.

While eating breakfast, the two discussed the residents who had been evacuated.

"Since the elders were able to evacuate the nearby residents so quietly, it means they have made thorough preparations! If we leave now, we will most likely walk straight into their trap!"

"So... if the enemy doesn't move, we don't move! Let's eat first, recharge our energy, and then we'll take them down together!"

Tang Yu downed the last glass of milk, then said with a murderous look, "In the face of absolute strength, any schemes and tricks are nothing but fleeting clouds!"

Tang Yu appeared very calm, but he was actually even calmer inside!

Even someone as powerful as the White Emperor has been destroyed by him. No matter how strong the Secret Party Elders' Council is, can they be stronger than that noble "White Emperor"?

After breakfast, the three of them calmly went about their business.

Erii and Renata were playing King of Fighters in the living room as usual, while Tang Yu lay idly on the sofa watching the Chinese national football team's spectacularly bad game.

This boredom lasted until 10 a.m.

Just as Tang Yu was getting so bored that he was about to fall asleep, several loud noises suddenly came from the courtyard of the villa.

Judging from the sound... it must be some kind of heavy object falling from a great height to the ground!

"They're here!" A glint flashed in Tang Yu's eyes.

Upon hearing the sound, Renata and Erii also put down their controllers in perfect unison, and the three of them walked together to the villa gate to observe the situation in the yard.

In the courtyard of the villa, a dozen huge, silver-white life support cells stood quietly.

A thin mist of cold air was drifting above the life support pod, and as time went by, the white mist was gradually dissipating.

At the same time, some unusual sounds came from inside the life support capsule... It sounded like someone was banging on the capsule's cover from the inside!

------------

186. Monster Under the Ice = Herring Can

"Ah Yu, are these coffins filled with zombies? The kind with talismans stuck to their heads, that jump around and bite people?"

Ever since watching a Chinese zombie movie a couple of days ago, Erii has been filled with fear of these strange creatures called "zombies."

The scene before me... looks exactly like a zombie about to rise from its coffin!

Erii, curled up in a ball, clung tightly to Tang Yu's arm, her koala-like, adorable appearance making her exceptionally endearing.

"Don't worry, Erii! It's not zombies inside..." Tang Yu's gaze darkened slightly, "but those things aren't much different from zombies!"

Tang Yu had already guessed what was inside these life support pods. If nothing unexpected happened, the creatures inside the life support pods should be referred to as "subsurface monsters" by the elders of the Secret Party.

This thing appeared in the original work!

Just five or six "ice monsters" were enough to drive Lu Mingfei, who had the "Hybrid Monarch" plan loaded, to the brink of despair.

Although Lu Mingfei's combat power is a bit weak when he doesn't unleash his full potential, he can still be considered a mixed-race monarch in the original work!

Being able to arm wrestle with a half-blooded monarch proves that these guys are extremely powerful in combat.

There were a total of seventeen "ice monsters" that appeared before our eyes!

It seems... the Secret Party Elders' Council has used up all the resources the Secret Party has accumulated over hundreds of years!

"So many monsters... this is really a bit difficult!" Tang Yu said, but his expression showed eagerness.

Indeed, with his current fighting power, taking down these guys is child's play for him!

"How did those old bastards in the Elder Council release these guys?" Renata, standing next to Tang Yu, seemed to recognize these monsters as well.

The Ice Queen frowned in disgust. "Tang Yu, be careful! These things are a bit difficult to deal with."

"Relax!" Tang Yu smiled slightly. "They're just a bunch of pathetic undead! In life, they were dragon-slaying heroes who risked their lives to protect humanity, and now they're treated like this in death... How pathetic! Let me give you a release!"

As they were talking, the hatch of the life support capsule suddenly emitted a series of rapid beeps, and the indicator light on it changed from red to green.

The life support capsule emitted a cloud of white mist and then slowly opened.

The monster that slept within... has awakened!

"Ayu, these guys are so ugly!" Erii frowned, her eyes full of disgust.

"If they're ugly, then wipe them all out! It's not their fault they're ugly, but it's their fault for scaring my Erii!" Tang Yu gently squeezed Erii's small hand, his words full of doting affection.

Even by Tang Yu's standards of beauty, these guys are ugly, so ugly that they have no friends.

Compared to these guys, Deadpool at least looks somewhat human! These guys, on the other hand, are covered in bluish-gray scales, their eyes have turned into crimson-gold vertical pupils, and their bones have undergone varying degrees of deformation.

The deformed bones grew like tangled branches on every part of these monsters, some even piercing through the dragon scales on their bodies.

Dark gray blood dripped slowly to the ground, and a stench like that of rotting herring filled the air.

"Are those old asses in the Elders' Council being kept in cans of herring?" Tang Yu gagged, his hand holding the longsword trembling slightly.

If Erii gets her hands on the blood of these monsters... she probably won't want to touch him for at least a month!

"If close combat doesn't work, let's switch to ranged attacks and give these guys some hellish trouble!" Tang Yu planted his long sword in the ground, and the dragon blood in his body gradually boiled, releasing his power of words without reservation!

Beside Tang Yu, Erii also slightly raised her palm, and her beautiful wine-red eyes sparkled with dazzling gold.

The Realm of Words of Power: Judgment Unfolds!

Seeing that her two teammates had entered battle mode, Renata remained silent.

Our Ice Queen is speechless!

"Looks like it's another day I'm just a pretty face!" Renata sighed softly.

Her ability is Word Power: Mirror Eye.

In most cases, the power of "Mirror Eyes" is like a bug! The ability to copy words of power and discover weaknesses has earned Renata the title of "invincible".

But in today's situation... it seems the bug has been fixed by the programmers!

The power of "Mirror Eye" is basically ineffective in today's scenario!

The Word Spirit Mirror Eye has the effect of copying Word Spirits, but there are two restrictions if you want to cast this effect!

First, the serial number of the copied person's Word of Power cannot be higher than that of "Mirror Eye". Second, the bloodline level of the copied person cannot be higher than that of the user of "Mirror Eye".

As for the situation on the field... Tang Yu, Erii, and even the group of ice monsters on the opposite side, all of them had a bloodline level that was much higher than Renata's.

"How many times have I been used as a decorative vase?" Renata muttered to herself. She hadn't done anything since she moved into the villa!

Every time a battle occurred, Renata would watch Tang Yu's skillful maneuvers from the sidelines with an expression of "worshiping the master."

This feeling of not having to do anything myself... is surprisingly good!

Renata felt like she had been raised to be a couch potato.

In the midst of the battlefield, after more than a century, the "subsurface monsters" who had awakened from their cryogenic preservation finally opened their eyes and began to look at the world anew.

They moved their bodies restlessly, and the putrid blood inside them gradually began to flow. As their body temperature gradually rose, the monsters' metabolism also gradually recovered.

A dragon-like ferocity rose within them, but despite their ferocity, these guys had not forgotten the mission implanted in their minds through alchemy.

The crimson-gold vertical pupils scanned the surroundings, and finally... a tall and muscular "monster under the ice" fixed its gaze on Erii.
