  The doors of the vehicles opened. Several military officials stepped out from the cars in front. All of them had an X-shaped pin on their shoulders. From the cars in the middle, men dressed in long black robes got out.

  Finally, special forces troops in full combat gear got out from the trucks at the back.

  “What’s the situation?”

  The commander asked in a stern voice when he arrived at the command center.

  The people in the command center wore strange expressions.

  “What’s wrong?” The commander was surprised.

  “Take a look for yourself, Commander!” They pointed at a computer screen.

  The commander and the people behind him walked close. They were shocked when they focused their gazes on the screen.

  The commander’s eyes opened wide. He nearly swore out loud.

  ‘F*ck!’

  On the computer screen, a person sat on a chair on the curb, casually sipping coffee. Occasionally, he would wave and smile toward the drones patrolling in the sky.

  How arrogant could someone be to behave like that?

  The commander teetered, and his face turned red with anger. He was trying very hard to control his temper.

  Meanwhile, the people behind him had similar expressions.

  “Does he think that we’re all pushovers?”

  “Have you found out the identity of that guy yet?” The commander said through gritted teeth.

  “Well… we’re not sure yet!” The officer said hesitantly.

  “What? Are all of you idiots? Why haven’t you found out his identity after so long? What are the brains in your heads for?” The commander roared angrily.

  “Well… we can’t do that… look at him, Commander…” the officer said somewhat awkwardly.

  He zoomed in on the live feed. The person’s face seemed to be blurry.

  “What’s going on?” The commander asked.

  “I don’t know! We can’t identify him like that. The only thing that we are sure that he is of Asian descent, and he’s quite young. He’s in his twenties at most.”

  “In his twenties?” The commander exclaimed incredulously.

  ‘A kid in his twenties can kill nineteen of my men?

  ‘What kind of a joke is that?’

  His expression sank. “Asian? Dammit, which country is he from?”

  “What should we do now, Commander?” Someone from behind him asked.

  “What do you mean, what do we do now? Blow him up into pieces! He killed so many of our people and shows no sign of remorse. Why do we need him alive?” The commander bellowed.

  “Order all drones and helicopters to fire at him at once. Just blow him up to bits!”

  “Yes, Sir!”

  The Black Hawks and the drones in the sky surrounded Tang Hao and prepared to initiate the attack.

  Suddenly, someone in the command center shouted, “He’s moving!”

  The people there turned to look at the screen. They saw the young man stand up, and suddenly, an RPG appeared in his hands as though he pulled it out of thin air. The RPG rested on his shoulder.

  Whoosh! A rocket flew out.

  “Mayday! Black hawk Three is hit…”

  A pilot’s frantic voice was heard over the communications system.

  They heard a distant explosion.

  The command center fell silent.

  Everyone froze in place as they looked at the computer screen.

  On the screen, after the young man fired the rocket from the RPG, he tossed it away and pulled out another one like a magician pulling a rabbit out of a hat.

  The helicopters and drones dropped from the sky like a chef dumping pierogies in a boiling pot.

  “Oh my god! Am I dreaming?” Someone mumbled.

  After that, he slapped himself in the face.

  “Ow!” He yelped and realized that he was not in a dream.

  ‘It’s all real!

  ‘But… how is that possible? Where did all the weapons come from?’

  He tore the hair from his head. He was losing his mind.

  Boom!

  The last drone fell from the sky in a ball of fire.

  The command center remained silent as a graveyard.

  Even the Western warlocks were stunned when they showed that.

  They had not seen such a spectacular act of sleight of hand before!

  Eventually, the commander came to his senses. He was trembling in anger.

  ‘Humiliation! This is utter humiliation!

  ‘Doesn’t matter who that guy is. If he dares to challenge Merrica, then he’s dead for sure!’

  “Strike! Strike! Everyone, move out and blow that guy to bits!” He turned and yelled at the warlocks behind him.

  Chapter 512 - He Is the Dragon of Huaxia!

  The sun continued to set.

  The streets were awash in a dim yellow hue.

  Tang Hao sat there, delicately sipping his coffee.

  A group of people walked down the street and appeared in front of him. They were dressed in black robes, carried wooden staves, and wore sinister expressions.

  They were Western warlocks.

  Westen warlocks were different from Nanyang shamans. Nanyang shamanic practices were descended from Huaxia sorcery, while Western magic evolved from a completely different system.

  Even though the names were different, Huaxia sorcery and western magic had their common points.

  Those people soon stood in front of Tang Hao.

  They were glaring at Tang Hao.

  The eldest among them were about fifty or sixty years of age. Their hair was graying, and the qi auras they emanated from their bodies indicated that they were from the late period of the State of Qi Channeling, about the same as Taoist Master Qian Ji.

  The people behind them were in different periods of the State of Qi Channeling.

  “Not bad at all!”

  Tang Ha mumbled to himself as he looked at them.

  ‘The people in Department X are more powerful than those from the Agency on average.

  ‘Looks like the Western cultivation world is stronger than Huaxia’s cultivation world.’

  He tilted his head and emptied his cup of coffee. Then he placed the empty cup heavily on the table while staring coldly at the people in front of him.

  His actions had angered the warlocks.

  “This is a brazen act of provocation!”‘

  “Does this guy have a death wish? How dare he cause trouble in our territory?”

  “If he wants trouble so much, then we’ll avenge our fallen brethren!”

  The warlocks shouted and cheered.

  Tang Hao chuckled. “You think too highly of yourself!” He spoke that in Chinese.

  The warlocks were shocked.

  “Chinese?”

  “Is he Huaxianese?”

  Then, they exclaimed in surprise.

  “What? He’s a Huaxianese? How dare he come to Merrica and challenge our authority?”

  “Damned Huaxianese, you’re only digging your grave. You’ll regret ever stepping foot on Merrica.”

  The Western warlocks displayed looks of anger and roared angrily.

  The people in the command center exclaimed in surprise.

  “He’s Huaxianese!”

  The commander’s expression changed into something more exasperated.

  ‘How dare a mere Huaxianese challenge Merrica?’

  “Kill him, quick!” He roared into the communicator.

  “Die, Huaxinese kid!”

  The Western warlocks yelled as they raised the wooden staves in their hands and aimed them at Tang Hao. The ends of their staves glowed in different colors. Some were frost, some were fire, and some were lightning.

  The light intensified and exploded. Beams of light fired from the staves and shot toward Tang Hao.

  Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

  Several tens of light beams swarmed across the space between the warlocks and Tang Hao, covering the sky and the ground. />
  The beams from the elderly warlocks were as thick as a bucket.

  “This time, the kid will be dead for sure!”

  The commander breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that.

  The Huaxianese kid had killed nineteen of his subordinates and destroyed so many helicopters and drones. He deserved to die.

  ‘The kid is a real idiot. How dare he run rampant in Merrica? Does he think that no one in Merrica can defeat him? He has something wrong with his brain.’

  The corners of the commander’s mouth stretched into a sinister grin.

  The officers behind him also breathed a sigh of relief.

  ‘He might be quite powerful, but he’s just a kid. He would definitely be blown to bits when facing so many warlocks, some of whom are Level A characters.’

  The warlocks were also thinking the same thing.

  However, Tang Hao started to move.

  He abruptly opened his eyes, which exuded a terrifying gleam. Then, he flicked his hands, and jade talismans flew out like raindrops in a storm.

  Boom! Boom! Boom!

  The jade talismans exploded, creating explosions of fire and lightning. The resulting collision sent fire and lightning in all directions.

  It was as though invisible explosives detonated in mid-air. The resulting shockwave uprooted road signs, tables, and chairs and disintegrated them.

  The shockwave swept past the warlocks. They grunted, flew backward, and fell on the ground.

  All of them had confused and baffled expressions on their faces.

  ‘What’s going on?

  ‘What did that Huaxianese kid do?’

  The command center fell into silence once more.

  The figures stood there, petrified. Their eyes were opened round and wide and were transfixed on the screen in front of them.

  Many people were sprawled amid the wreckage. They were all the powerful and invulnerable warlocks in their eyes. Meanwhile, the Huaxianese kid stood there unscathed.

  “How could this be?”

  The commander was baffled.

  He could not understand why so many warlocks could not do anything to that kid.

  “Talismans! Those are Huaxianese talismans!” An elderly warlock yelled.

  He understood the Huaxia cultivation world well and knew what talismans were.

  “Talismans are mere accessories. His cultivation base must not be high. He’ll be dead once his supply of talismans run out!” Another elderly warlock said.

  The people got onto their feet, picked up their staves, and straightened their clothes. Their gaze on Tang Hao became even more sinister.

  “Is that so?”

  Tang Hao chuckled. He brandished his qi aura, and an awe-inspiring presence spread in all directions.

  His qi aura of half a Perfected Person washed over the warlocks like the incoming tide.

  The warlocks shuddered and their faces turned pale when they sensed the aura. Their eyes opened wider than ever and displayed expressions of panic and even fear.

  “Oh my god… how is this possible?”

  The elderly warlocks were shuddering.

  The immensity of the qi aura had shaken them to their core.

  Suddenly, an elderly warlock yelled. “It’s him! I know who he is! He is that dragon from Huaxia!”

  The other warlocks shuddered, and their faces turned even paler when they heard that.

  “I can’t be wrong. It’s him! Only one person in Huaxia has so much power!”

  “Oh my god! Why is he here?”

  Many warlocks wailed.

  The dragon was the symbol of Huaxia.

  The news of a Half-Perfected Person had spread throughout the world some time ago. Foreigners called that person the Dragon of Huaxia.

  “Run away! We’re no match for him!”

  “The Dragon of Huaxia is here! He’s not just a Level A threat, he’s a Level S threat!”

  “Quick, call the Divine Eagle! Only the Divine Eagle can fight against the Dragon of Huaxia!”

  They turned around and ran away frantically.

  “Now that you’re here, don’t even think of leaving!” Tang Hao grunted coldly and dashed forward with a burst of speed.

  Immediately, fresh blood spurted everywhere, and the wails of agony did not stop for a long time.

  Chapter 513 - The Divine Eagle Descends

  Thud!

  The last warlock fell, accompanied by a spray of blood.

  Corpses and debris littered across the street. Only one lone figure stood there.

  The command center was deathly silent.

  The figures inside stood there as though they had turned into stone.

  What did they see on the screen? It was a total massacre! All the Level C, Level B, and even Level A Guardians were helpless against the Huaxianese young man.

  What incredible power was that?

  “Dragon? He’s the Dragon of Huaxia?”

  Someone shouted with a trembling voice. His face was as pale as a sheet, and his eyes opened wide with fear.

  The Dragon of Huaxia!

  That was a name that inspired fear. It was much more than a Level A threat; it was a Level S threat.

  The military officers started trembling when they heard that.

  The commander was also shaking. Cold sweat beaded and streamed down his forehead.

  ‘F*ck! So he’s the Dragon of Huaxia?

  ‘What kind of a cruel joke is this?’

  His mind was a frantic mess.

  That feeling was like starting a new game and encountering some low-level mob on the map, which turned out to be a secret boss and could take you out with one attack.

  It was the most frustrating feeling ever.

  ‘Dammit, if I knew that he was the Dragon of Huaxia, then we shouldn’t have fought back! We should’ve just given those two Level E mobs as an offering.

  ‘Now that the battle has begun, the situation is out of my control.’

  He was more surprised by the fact that the Dragon of Huaxia was so young!

  “Wh… wha… what do… w… we do… now, Com… Commander?” An officer behind him stammered.

  The commander wiped away the sweat on his forehead. His hands were trembling even more violently.

  “What do you mean by what do we do? This is a Level S threat! Raise the alert and contact the Hexagon.”

  “Yes!” The officer replied.

  Very soon, an alarm sounded in the department headquarters, and an alert was broadcast nationwide.

  Many people’s hands vibrated throughout Merrica. They were dumbfounded when they lowered their heads to see the notification on their wristwatches.

  On their wristwatches was a blood-red letter S.

  That was the legendary Level S threat, and they were about to witness it with their eyes.

  Meanwhile, an alarm also rang in the Hexagon, Merrica’s Department of Defense headquarters. The entire building exploded with activity.

  “What’s going on? Huaxia is here? Heh! What’s the fuss? What? The Dragon of Huaxia? Dammit, is Huaxia crazy? Are they declaring war on us?”

  Even the President was alerted.

  He dialed a Huaxianese phone number.

  At the same time, somewhere in the Capital.

  “Ah… what a wonderful, uneventful day!”

  General Bai leaned back and sank into the soft couch.

  “Nothing to worry about today. Days like these are the best!”

  General Bai narrowed his eyes, evidently in a merry mood.

  “Ahh, how nice! If only every day could be like this! Oh, right, tomorrow will be my vacation too. What should I do? Should I go fishing?

  “Hmm, not bad! I should call up Ol’ Chen and Ol’ Xu and invite them to go fishing. That sounds like a plan!

  “Alright, that decides it! I’m off!”

  General Bai sat up straight, stretched lazily, then took his briefcase and stepped out of his office while humming a small tune.

  However, he suddenly he
ard the phone in his office ringing.

  General Bai was surprised. He stopped walking.

  ‘F*ck! I’m just about to go off work. Why are people calling me now?’

  “I wonder what’s going on?” He grumbled, turned around to his office, and picked up the phone.

  “Hey! Who is it?” He yelled unhappily into the phone.

  When he received a reply, he was utterly dumbstruck. His hand trembled, and the receiver in his hand nearly dropped on the table.

  ‘Dammit!

  That Tang Hao kid is in Merrica now, and he’s causing a lot of trouble too?

  ‘Wait a second… is he crazy? That’s Merrica we’re talking about, not Hindustan!’

  “Wait, I’ll come over right now!”

  He slammed the receiver down and rushed out of his office.

  His expression immediately sank.

  “And I was just hoping for an easy day! F*ck, this is a major incident. I’ll have to work overtime tonight!” General Bai wanted to cry.

  The past few days were uneventful, so how did things become so serious all of a sudden?

  “Why can’t Comrade Tang Hao give me a break?” General Bai continued mumbling as he ran down the corridor.

  Very soon, in another room, he was on a video conference call with the Merricans.

  “You are provoking us! This is an act of war!” The Merrican general yelled.

  General Bai grimaced and scratched his ear. “Excuse me, have you really confirmed that the person is from Huaxia, and not Dongying or Nanyang?

  “Ah, right, it might be those kimchi eaters too!”

  The Merrican general was taken aback. “Who else could he be if not from you guys?”

  “Ah, you can’t say that! You’ll need evidence to support your claim. Otherwise, that’s slander!

  “We won’t admit it if you don’t have evidence!”

  General Bai waved his hands with a grim expression on his face.

  The general was stunned. He could not find a reason.
