As the Landing Pod opened, several heavily armed Valkyrie leaped down, cutting off the retreat of the first wave of monsters.

Instantly, gunfire, bloodshed, slaughter, and death intertwined into a cruel yet beautiful symphony.

The order for joint military exercises between China and Japan in the southern seas seems quite surreal to neighboring countries and ships traveling there.

However, the genuine sound of artillery fire and the patrolling naval vessels along the blockade line caused the initially hesitant sailors to turn back and leave, not daring to venture into the military restricted area.

However, the fact that cats and mice, these former natural enemies, have actually joined forces has inevitably sparked various conspiracy theories and entertaining speculations in their minds.

At this moment, within the sealed-off area, Mythical Beasts fell into the ocean like dumplings being dropped into boiling water.

The mighty South Sea Fleet, after determining the target distance, carried out its attack with conventional long-range artillery fire.

Meanwhile, the Japanese side, responsible for clearing out the other side, displayed its full strength.

The [Sky Ladder] electromagnetic railgun made its debut, its blue and white beam sweeping across the sea, creating waves hundreds of meters high, and the ranks of the Mythical Beasts were neatly sliced apart like large chunks of butter.

Immediately, the Imperial Army, piloting individual aerial Power Armor, and the Shinra Special Forces, now half-angelic, coordinated their attacks and advanced ruthlessly.

"Commander, should we deploy the Xiong Bing Lian the battlefield and show the enemy what they're made of?"

At this moment, on the flagship Ju Xia Hao, the green-haired twin-tailed technician, while using Dark Plane Communication to analyze battlefield intelligence, casually offered suggestions to Dukao behind her.

"Hehe, don't be in such a hurry. The things in Kunlun are very cunning. These are just small fry on the front lines. There's no need to make a big fuss. It's good for the front-line troops to practice."

"It's not time to use our trump cards yet; we need to remain calm and patient."

Dukao picked up the vintage-looking military green tea mug, took a sip of cool tea, leaned back in his chair, and tapped his right hand on the armrest with a light touch.

"Ajie, what's going on on the other side?"

The question from his old comrade and superior made Jagustin, dressed in military uniform, stroke his chin thoughtfully before tentatively giving an answer.

"A show of force?"

However, Dukao looked amused and appeared extremely relaxed.

"A show of force? Hah, Shinra's days are numbered. They're just flexing their muscles, trying to get a better price for themselves."

Jagustin suddenly clapped his hands, gazing at the densely packed Shanhai Beasts on the ocean surface and the Lighthouse Nation's headquarters in the direction of Yokohama, his smile ambiguous.

"So, they're planning to leave the Lighthouse and return to the embrace of their suzerain state?"

Dukao tapped the back of his chair, nodded calmly, his gaze deep.

"Since the Second Honkai Calamity, the nature of warfare has changed dramatically, and conventional armies are becoming increasingly ineffective."

"Haven't you noticed that the United States has been continuously shrinking its overseas defenses and redeploying troops in recent years, basically ignoring the lives of those democratically occupied territories, at most entrusting the Avengers with a token gesture?"

"After all, the Pentagon isn't full of fools. The cost of being the world's policeman is getting higher and higher, and they're dealing with all sorts of strange and unusual things."

"Let whoever wants to do this thankless task do it. Let's protect our own little plot of land first."

Jagustin nodded in agreement, knowing that after so many upheavals, the White Eagle had lost all its feathers and was no longer worthy of its former glory.

Moreover, the incumbent president is a pragmatic dove on China, so it is naturally unlikely that he will continue to maintain the empty title of world policeman.

As for Japan, which has also suffered many misfortunes—or rather, "Area 11"—it had already come to understand the true nature of the Pacific Fleet through several joint operations.

If you continue to follow the America pirate ship, you'll be lucky if you don't get scammed. Expecting your American daddy to lend a hand when you're in trouble is just wishful thinking.

Since the Jenova invasion exposed the flaws in Japan's government system and led to its dissolution, the Schrodinger Company, which came to power in Area 11, has become too lazy to engage in any political charades.

The United States has always dreamed of breaking up Schrodinger Company and is particularly covetous of their technology.

If Lufus wasn't stupid, he'd know he should switch allies now.

After all, once a natural disaster strikes, the White Eagle US) will be left with its own mess to clean up, and the Pacific Fleet will be basically useless.

The wise decision would be to stand together with Shenzhou and establish a joint theater command.

However, before that, you need to let your partners see your value so that you have leverage for future negotiations.

"Although the normalization of diplomatic relations between China and Japan is in the national interest, I don't feel happy about it."

Jagustin glanced at the Imperial Army and Shinra Special Forces charging through the monster horde on the screen, and clicked his tongue in regret.

"That's because you thought the other side would be tough enough to give you a chance to use the Xiong Bing Lian to test your skills against your old rival."

Dukao took a sip of tea, clearly understanding his old subordinate's thoughts perfectly, and his words hit the nail on the head.

However, the former military leader of Norsemania looked at the Shinra forces fighting on the screen with a playful expression.

"We can't fight, but getting in won't be easy either. Let them take the lead, and spend more time getting to know these Shanhai Beasts."

"It's so nice to have someone do it for us. We'll have time to sit down, have some tea, and watch a play."

Jagustin understood the hidden meaning in his old boss's words, his expression relaxed, and he secretly gave a thumbs up.

The other side wants to offer a token of loyalty; how can we do that without some sacrifice? Even for the greater good of the Humanity Community, it's inconvenient to completely sell out Japan.

But what's the big deal about taking out a few cannon fodder from the other side? Besides, they've practically delivered themselves to our doorstep, so why not take advantage of it?

Speaking of which, Mythical Beasts can be considered of Chinese descent, right?

So, when they killed these Japanese soldiers, should I feel sorry for our allies out of consideration for the fate of Humanity Community, or should I applaud their spirit of resistance against Japan from the perspective of national hatred?

Alright, let's just have some tea, and we'll please both sides!

Jagustin smiled slyly, pulled over a chair, stole some tea leaves from his old boss, and brewed them for himself.

Meanwhile, in the Himalayas, hundreds of temple mages gathered on the snow-covered ground ahead, forming their own formations to divide and annihilate the fallen Mythical Beasts.

In regions such as the Siberia permafrost, the German Black Forest, and the Africa desert, the seven major organizations and local armies are on high alert, ready to surround and annihilate the Mythical Beasts and seas that have entered the real world.

The smoke of war, hidden beneath the surface of peace, permeates everywhere.

P. S.: There will only be two updates on the 13th, I will try my best to update four times on the 14th.

Chapter 789, Section 825: The Angel of "Respecting the Elderly and Caring for the Young"

The Kunlun Secret Realm was in turmoil, with fierce winds and thunder raging, mountains collapsing, and lava erupting everywhere, presenting an apocalyptic scene.

Sensing the danger, the Primordial Experiment Subjects frantically fled this small world on the verge of collapse, wanting to go to the outside world to hunt and survive freely.

However, Kevin, Fu Hua, and Doctor Strange joined forces, each blocking one side of the breach, and basically withstood the fierce attack of the Primordial Experiment Subjects.

Before the three large voids leading to the outer world, piles of strange and grotesque corpses lay scattered. Under the heavy stench of blood and the terrifying pressure, the experimental subjects hesitated to proceed.

With these three tough opponents right in front of us, a direct defense simply cannot be breached in the short term.

Furthermore, with the spatial passages opened by Kevin appearing one after another around them, the low- and mid-level prehistoric beasts, forced to retreat, had no choice but to scatter and rush into the vortex with an unknown future.

With nearly half of the primordial beasts roaming the mountains devoured, the pressure on Kevin and the others was greatly reduced.

"Approximately how long until the Heavenly Palace descends?"

Kevin dispelled the light, raised his hand and split a ferocious beast in two, then turned to Doctor Strange was struggling beside him, and asked him a question.

"In less than ten minutes, we managed to use the Heavenly Palace Imperial Guard's swords to quell the Kunlun Beast Tide riot."

"For the Divine River Civilization, these Beast Body life are the primary nemesis that must be dealt with jointly; friendships forged in the crucible of war are the most enduring."

Doctor Strange glanced at the few high-level Beast Body life, his tone somewhat lighthearted.

"You're using these Kunlun monsters as a stepping stone for reconciliation between us and Lieyang Star? You've been watching too many Hobbits."

Kevin casually remarked that Doctor Strange's plan to clean up the mess seemed rather nonchalant.

In The Hobbit, when faced with an external enemy, the elves and dwarves chose to make peace and fight together against the orcs' attack.

But before this, both sides had fought each other to the death, so they knew that continuing the fight would only allow the orcs to reap the benefits.

If neither side wants to benefit their arch-enemy, they have no choice but to stand together and offer each other a way out.

If we look at it closely, strength is the foundation of mutual respect. If you want to stand on equal footing with established civilizations like Lieyang Star, you must at least offer equivalent qualifications.

Throughout history, whether it was angels and demons, or the Aesir gods and the Lieyang Star, these advanced civilizations never initially gave Earth a second glance.

Otherwise, why would this place be used as a testing ground for confronting the Ultimate Fear?

Therefore, the pride of these lofty gods, which has lasted for millennia, cannot be broken by Earthlings' attempts to play the victim or make concessions.

Are you free?

"Ah?"

"Hold on for us for now. Fu Hua and I are going upstairs to take care of some personal matters, and also to prepare a small gift for everyone in the Heavenly Palace."

Kevin a strange smile, pulled Fu Hua up, and left.

Doctor Strange stared at the dozens of high-level Beast Body life eyeing him menacingly, his lips twitching, his expression shifting between anger and uncertainty.

"You're not trying to get revenge on me because of Master Gu Yi, are you?"

"How could that be! I completely forgot about it. I'm just asking for a favor; at most, I'll owe you one. Good luck, you can do it!"

Kevin looked completely innocent, grinning with a slightly sincere smile, before pulling Fu Hua straight towards the Nine Gate of the Heavenly Realm.

You petty bastard! How would you know what I was talking about if you'd forgotten?

Doctor Strange cursed under his breath, but seeing a large group of Primordial Experiment Subjects surrounding him, he couldn't bother to confront the guy. He immediately formed a lotus mudra with his hands and sat cross-legged on the ground.

Are you sure he can stop those ancient monsters?

On the way, Fu Hua, now away from the front lines, hesitated, still worried about the situation behind her.

"Don't worry, during the Tang Dynasty, the second-generation holder of the Time Stone, the Master Xuanzang, once used this thing to quell a beast tide in the Kunlun Secret Realm."

"Right now, it's just my old friend holding off the enemy for a few minutes. It's no big deal for him; he'll stay alive as long as he defends the tower."

Kevin put his arm around Fu Hua's slender waist, flapped his wings and flew forward, explaining in a low voice.

"You want to get rid of this new Sorcerer Supreme?"

Fu Hua's whisper, which entered Kevin's mind, made the Judgment Angel smile and narrow his eyes, revealing a hint of appreciation.

"The old man has a heart condition and likes to nag. He talks about the big picture and the interests of the group all day long, which gives me the creeps."

Sure enough, you just wanted to make a big splash and found the Sorcerer Supreme in the back getting in your way, so you deliberately kept him from leaving.

Fu Hua gradually returns to her true self and chooses to face her innate nature, she can't help but roll her eyes, revealing a rare and charming allure.

During their unspoken exchange in their minds, the two found themselves before the Spatial Barrier formed by the Gate of the Heavenly Realm.

When Kevin and Fu Hua's figures were projected onto the Sword Dancing Ground, the two remaining sword masters couldn't help but tremble violently. This was something they had been unable to face for thousands of years.

"Master, it's been so long..."

Cheng Lingshuang Shuang stood up, sword in hand. Her lightly closed eyes slowly opened, and after her emotions calmed down, her tone returned to its indifferent state.

To Ma Yanqing's astonishment, Ling Shuang actually walked out of the barrier of the Gate of the Heavenly Realm with her sword in hand, stood in the air, and silently confronted Fu Hua.

Kevin saw no fear or struggle on the woman's face, only a calm expression.

"Why..."

Fu Hua remained silent for a long time before asking the question that had been weighing on her mind for many years.

"What my Eldest Senior Sister said is that she fears aging. If you abandon her because of this, she would rather you live on in her heart before you make a decision..."

"From my Second Senior Sister to myself, the four of us have been either your hostages or your enemies. On the surface, we appear safe and sound, but we live in your shadow every moment..."

"You think you're being good to us, but this kind of feeling will drive anyone crazy sooner or later..."

"As for the Old Six, he's extremely malicious and a thoroughly selfish scoundrel..."

"The reason why our Eldest Senior Sister chose to join us in murdering our master was most likely because she was misled by her husband, the Old Six brother..."

Cheng Lingshuang slightly parted her lips, glanced disdainfully at Ma Yanqing's resentful expression, and then continued to add.

"Seventh Junior Sister, however, is entangled in romantic entanglements and cannot see through the illusions of love and romance in this world..."

"After her virginity was defiled, her sword spirit was damaged. Fearing your wrath, she simply took a risky path, tearing down the mountain in her heart..."

Fu Hua looked at this disciple who had once been her most beloved, a trace of confusion appearing between her brows.

"You... hate me that much?"

This swordsmanship prodigy with snow-white hair raised an eyebrow, somewhat stunned.

"Hate? Master, after all these years, you still can't see through people's hearts..."

"What grudges and feuds are just pretexts for conflicts of interest. What do you owe us in return for the kindness of raising and educating us, compared to the hatred between blood relatives?"
