"Moreover, these are things that your own people have done before, and now he's just doing them again."

"He's a very stubborn person."

"Whoever causes him trouble or does anything to him, he will beat them back tenfold. No one should be a sore loser."

"If you are still dissatisfied after hearing what he said, then watch what he does in a moment and then consider how to talk to him."

After saying that, EVA snapped his fingers, and his figure disappeared from the holographic projection.

The room lights returned to normal, illuminating everyone's faces and their embarrassed yet suppressed anger.

One of the men couldn't help but stand up and look at the old man standing in the very center, his back hunched and leaning on a cane.

The man was wearing round-framed glasses and a leather cap with a rolled brim. He was thin and looked like a retired Texas Ranger, with a worn badge on his hat.

But the other party is actually the person with the most say here, and the supreme leader of all North American mixed-race families, Henkel.

"Mr. Henkel..."

The old man waved his hand: "It's alright."

"Let him do whatever he wants."

"After all, you were the ones who angered Mr. 'Lanlong' first, which is why he wanted to retaliate against you, wasn't it?"

The man paused, and everyone else in the room lowered their heads.

But the man was still dissatisfied: "So we're just going to let him attack the Chicago base like this?"

"The Chicago base is the only base we have complete control over. We've only bribed the commanders of the other bases. If they were attacked, it would be a huge loss for us. We can't let him do that!"

“So?” Mr. Henkel countered, looking at him. “Are you going to stop him?”

Although his tone remained calm, the man felt a chill run down his spine and dared not speak again.

"Report!" Suddenly, an urgent voice came through the communication channel.

Chapter 446 Storm Surge!

"This is the Chicago branch of the Weather Monitoring Department! We have observed large-scale wind element turbulence in the eastern suburbs of Chicago and near Lake Michigan, and it is expanding!"

"Repeat! This is the Chicago branch of the Weather Monitoring Department!"

"We have observed large-scale wind element turbulence in the eastern suburbs of Chicago and near Lake Michigan, and it is continuing to expand!"

Along with the urgent sounds in the channel, a holographic projection request was also sent.

One of the people in the room nodded, and the holographic image re-activated.

The cold, blue-haired, sharp-tongued girl from before was gone, but a young man who was both unfamiliar and familiar to them appeared.

The other party floated in mid-air, standing on the vast lake surface. Then, after glancing in the direction of the Chicago base, it plunged downwards, diving headfirst into the lake from a height of 100 meters, creating a huge splash on the surface.

Immediately afterwards, ripples appeared on the lake surface, the ripples stirred and turned into waves, rising up hundreds of meters into the air, crashing towards the screen in front of them.

The screen flickered and then went completely dark.

A voice came through the channel: "That was the last footage our drone observed before it crashed, but we still have the Word of Power monitoring."

"Then activate the elemental monitoring 3D surveillance system," the man said immediately. "Let's see what's going on there."

"Yes."

Soon, the holographic projection changed again.

The outline of the city appears, with images of skyscrapers and dense streets in the middle, and a vast lake to the east of the city.

This is a 3D map projection for element monitoring, featuring a three-dimensional map of Chicago's urban area, suburbs, and surrounding waterways, which can display the distribution of elements over a wide area.

At this moment, on this map, light blue elements are converging towards the sky above southern Michigan.

In just a short time, the wind elements gathered on the southern part of the lake exceeded the area of ​​half of Chicago's main urban area, and continued to gather and spread to the surrounding areas, covering the southwestern shore of the lake where Chicago is located.

The voice in the channel came again: "Based on the speed and amount of elemental gathering, we speculate that the center of elemental gathering is very likely a sub-generation or even monarch-level dragon releasing an extremely dangerous incantation."

"Family representatives, parents, and Mr. Henkel, what should we do next? Should we evacuate the residents of Chicago for shelter?"

The family representatives sitting at the back of the seats all looked at the heads of the families in front of them.

The parents then looked at Mr. Henkel in the middle.

To be honest, they weren't surprised at all by Morikawa Yu's use of the Word of Power.

However, they did not expect the scope of this word of power to be so vast, and they could not understand why Morikawa Yu would release this word of power in the southern part of Lake Michigan.

Such a large-scale gathering of wind elements should be a wind-based spell.

What exactly is he trying to do by releasing it into the southern part of Lake Michigan, a great lake?

Mr. Henkel leaned on his cane and closed his eyes.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes: "Did you feel it?"

What do you feel?

The parents were taken aback.

Suddenly, their expressions changed.

They didn't know when, but the moisture in the air gradually became thicker, making them feel humid, stuffy, and short of breath.

Outside the window, the sky was filled with thick, dark clouds.

They piled up in the east, gradually pressing towards the city center, quickly obscuring most of the city, pressing down on the rooftops of the city's high-rise buildings, so low that they seemed within reach.

As dark clouds obscured the sky, the city descended into darkness, turning day into night. Emergency lights along the main roads were turned on, illuminating only the roads themselves.

It's not just dark clouds.

Along with the dark clouds came strong winds.

The wind blew through the trees on both sides of the road, making the trunks tremble and the crowns sway, as if trying to uproot the trees. Leaves and pebbles flew in the dim light, drifting into the sky, passing by the windows, and falling to the ground.

The lights in many high-rise buildings went out one by one, floor by floor.

Even the floor beneath their feet trembled, and the building seemed to sway slightly.

Suddenly, a flash of white light appeared, and a light shone through the dark clouds outside, followed by a deafening rumble of thunder.

The rain started pouring down.

In the pitch-black sky, lightning flashed and thunder roared. Only a few main roads below the city still had lights on. Cars were stuck in traffic, unable to move an inch, and some vehicles were blown over and crashed to the roadside.

From a distance, it looked like the end of the world.

The heads of the various families exchanged glances and looked at Mr. Henkel.

The less senior family heads, however, all lowered their heads and remained silent.

With the parents of each family delegating power to them, it was they who issued the order to search for and capture Morikawa Yu, and even the parents didn't interfere much in this matter.

Now that they've discovered how terrifying the people they've provoked are, they're likely to face quite severe punishment.

Mr. Henkel, leaning on his cane, moved closer to the holographic map. The silver ring on his hand lit up, and he flicked the holographic projection with his fingers, asking softly, "What is the closest armed force to the southern lakes of Michigan?"

“Chicago military base,” the person who had just activated the projector replied immediately. “And it just reported that it has dispatched four F-35 fighter jets to the target’s location.”

Mr. Henkel remained silent, then sighed: "The Chicago military base is finished."

"Even if you wanted to save them, it would be too late."

The person who activated the holographic projection widened their eyes: "Why? Mr. Henkel? A hurricane-level storm wouldn't be enough to destroy a base in the suburbs, would it?"

“We experience Category 3 or 4 hurricanes on both the East and West coasts every year, but we don’t lose our bases on the East and West coasts every year, do we?”

Mr. Henkel shook his head slightly: "If it's just a hurricane-level storm, it certainly can't completely destroy a base. At most, it will damage the base's undefended facilities, heavy weapons, fighter jets, and tanks."

"But what if it's an ancient dragon of the next generation or higher that triggers this storm?"

He zoomed in on the holographic map projection, emphasizing the sky directly above the southern shore of Lake Michigan.

A structure resembling the eye of a hurricane has formed there.

Unlike ordinary hurricanes, this hurricane's eye was formed entirely of pure wind elements, surrounded by turbulent lake currents and storm surges.

"Take a look at the holographic map and element monitoring."

"He unleashed his power over Lake Michigan to trigger an extraordinary hurricane, or rather, a 'storm surge'."

"This type of natural disaster is also known as 'sea transgression,' 'tidal disaster,' or 'massive tidal wave.' Once it occurs, it is even more destructive than a hurricane, capable of breaching seawalls and submerging harbors, factories, and surrounding towns."

"Although he only released the Word of Power in Lake Michigan, the lake water may not have been enough for him to complete the Word of Power."

"But don't forget, Lake Michigan is the third largest lake in North America, and its area and capacity are enough to submerge the entire city of Chicago and all the cities near Chicago."

Mr. Henkel sighed as he spoke.

As if he had thought of something, he swiped on the holographic map again and pointed to the location of the eye of the hurricane.

"When I inquired about him with the Kassel College and Angers, they gave me additional information, which was the college's mainframe EVA's speculation about Professor Morikawa Yu's identity."

She said that in the East there is a dragon named "Rang," who possesses the power to stir up storms and bring disaster to the people of the land, so it is called "Rang Dragon" and also "Amizu Calamity God."

"But after checking a lot of intelligence, I couldn't find any evidence that 'Rangryu' exists in Japan."

"Furthermore, according to the information I obtained from that old guy Angers, the mixed-race people in Japan should all be descendants of the White King, and they do not have the inheritance of wind-type words of power."

"Therefore, it is very likely that He is not some 'Lanlong', but another, more noble being."

Finally, a family patriarch couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Henkel, are you perhaps trying to say that he is... the first species monarch who holds the power of spirituality and perception, the King of the Sky and the Wind?"

The speculation was so terrifying that he couldn't believe his own words after he finished speaking.

Because the second-generation species of dragons, the ancient dragons, and the first-generation species, the monarchs, are not on the same level at all. The former is just an ancient and powerful dragon, while the latter is a dragon monarch created by the legendary Black Emperor, who was supreme, virtuous, and powerful.

Throughout history, these monarchs have repeatedly revived, but hybrids and humans have never truly killed them; they have only repeatedly put them into a deep sleep.

However, they can easily inflict irreparable damage on hybrids.

The last dragon monarch to awaken destroyed the Lionheart Society, the most elite dragon-slaying squad in the Secret Society, founded by the then-new generation leader Menek Cassel.

Many dragon slayers, including Meneke Cassel, who were renowned and whose honors were enough to glorify the history of dragon slaying, were killed by Him, leaving only Angers among the original Lionheart Order.

This is also why Angers hates dragons so much.

All his comrades, family, and even his brother-like Menek Cassel had died at the hands of dragons, so he vowed to annihilate all dragons, including the dragon monarch at the time, Li Wuyue.

Mr. Henkel nodded: "Very likely."

Upon hearing this, the young family representatives exchanged glances, raised their heads, and no longer looked ashamed of their previous mistakes.

If Morikawa Yu is a powerful S-rank hybrid, then their actions are tantamount to creating a powerful enemy for the family, and they will definitely be severely punished, possibly even losing their position as family representatives.

However, if Morikawa Yu is a first-generation dragon lord, then their actions would not be considered making an enemy, but rather a test of a first-generation lord.

Although the person who actually conducted the test is dead, the other person's whereabouts are unknown.

But they were also part of the decision-making team and the team that devised the capture plan; they deserve to be rewarded, not punished.

Mr. Henkel frowned: "Are you happy?"

"You think that just because He is a dragon monarch and not a hybrid, you are brave warriors who dare to test the dragon monarch, instead of reckless, greedy, and short-sighted good-for-nothings?"

"Hmph, each generation is worse than the last."

"Regardless of whether He is a dragon monarch or a super hybrid standing at the peak of S-class, possibly exceeding the limits of S-class, you should not be so reckless!"

"When I was as young as you are more than a hundred years ago, I never did anything without being sure of success."

"That's why I was able to injure that guy Angers and, together with your grandfathers, expand the influence of the North American mixed-race people to what it is today. If it weren't for his Word of Power, who knows how many things would have happened to Angers."

"You don't have Angers' strength, his power of words, or the Kassel College that he has behind him. How dare you provoke others so casually?"

“If you hadn’t caused him trouble, he wouldn’t have been so angry and activated this Word of Power.”

“We can take things slowly, instead of worrying about the Chicago base right now and having to figure out how to deal with this Mr. Morikawa Yu who is suspected to be a dragon monarch.”

Mr. Henkel stared at the young family representatives.

He touched the silver ring on his hand.

"In short, let's try our best to minimize the losses first,"

"I'll settle accounts with you later!"
