Chapter 268: Dragon's Winter in Tokyo, Japan

Chapter 268: Dragon's Winter in Tokyo, Japan

May 15th, noon, Tokyo, Japan.

All the top players in the world gathered here. The flow of people was like a dragon and the momentum was mighty. The long streets of Tokyo were crowded with these elites. Just looking at them from afar, they exuded a solemn and murderous aura, and an atmosphere as heavy as the abyss of death spread out.

According to statistics from the Evolution Foundation, after eleven rounds of dungeons, the number of surviving players is now less than ten million, and the World Boss battle will select the top three thousand players in the battle power rankings to participate.

The final ranking list is updated at the moment the World Championship ends.

At the time, Anselmo was ranked number one in the world and Cosimo was ranked number two, which was also the result of the final between the two.

But after the battle in the Tower of Babel dungeon, the number of sequence players and ordinary players who died increased significantly, and those who died were the most elite players.

So far, there are only more than forty sequence players surviving, including members of the Chinese national team and the law enforcement team.

They had reached a consensus three days before the decisive battle. There was no longer any party division. Now there was only one team, that is, the community with a shared future for mankind.

[Warning: Please note that all players, the twelfth round of the dungeon will begin after 7 o'clock tonight, please prepare as soon as possible. ]

[Warning: Please note that all players, the twelfth round of the dungeon will begin after 7 o'clock tonight, please prepare as soon as possible. ]

Anson Deer gasped.

In the principal's timeline, all players mistakenly believed that the twelfth round of dungeons had nothing to do with the world boss battle due to such a bland system prompt tone, so they entered the twelfth round of dungeons with a normal mentality.

Then, he ended up dying without a complete body.

It is only because of the principal's survival that the world line we have today exists.

Urushihara Ritsu put his hand on his chin and couldn't help but sigh:

"I see. Was it because the principal was misled by the system that he thought the twelfth round of dungeons had no connection with the world boss battle?"

"That should be it... Let's ignore that old man for now and take care of ourselves first."

Anson Deer said, adjusting the collar of his uniform.

The people behind him were all there - Jiang Yiji, Mo Xiaoyuan, Wang Youjin, Uesugi Asuka, Yuliu, Chu Qimo, Urushihara Ritsu, William, and Lan Xiao.

"Next is the final battle." Chu Qimo stroked Anqiong's sword bag, as if saying goodbye to the sword that had accompanied him for half a year.

"What a shame," William spread his hands lightly, "In fact, sometimes I feel that the world is a game, which is not bad. After all, reality is so fucked up."

Blue Owl pulled his cap down and said calmly, "Your idea will get you thrown into jail and shot ten thousand times, William."

Jiang Yijie smiled slightly and said to them, "Everyone, if you have anything to say, wait until you have discussed it with the people from the law enforcement team."

"Let's go, Cosimo is still waiting for us." After adjusting his collar, Anson Lu led the members of the Chinese national team to the city center of Tokyo.

Meet Cosimo under the Tokyo Sky Tree. The law enforcement team led by the latter includes elite players from national teams around the world.

"Finally, this day has come." Urushihara Ritsu looked up at the scorching sun and said, "Lu-kun, we have come this far."

"Yes, the last step."

"Anson, we must not lose..." Cosimo said, "right?" The law enforcement team's uniform made his figure look cold.

I don’t know if it was Anson Deer’s illusion, but he always felt that this little cyber guy had grown taller and looked much more mature, and was becoming more and more like his older brother.

"Yes, we must not lose." Anson Lu put his elbow on his shoulder and said with a smile: "Fight this battle well."

At 19:00 on the evening of May 15, 2026, the World Boss Battle officially began.

[The twelfth round of dungeons officially begins. ]

[Now announcing a message, this round of the dungeon will be a world boss battle. 】

[The top 3,000 players on the world battle power list will all be forcibly teleported to Tokyo, Japan to participate in the battle.]

[The World Boss battle has begun. The White Dragon will land in Tokyo in 60 seconds. Please prepare in advance. ]

7pm, Tokyo, Japan.

After being teleported to the Tokyo Skytree in the city center, Anson Lu immediately shouted in a deep voice on the voice channel:

"All members of the expedition team, stay together and retreat away from Tokyo Skytree within 60 seconds—"

If things go just as they did in the initial World Boss preview.

Then there is no doubt that in 60 seconds, the Snow Dragon will turn into an extremely white comet and smash into the top of the Tokyo Sky Tree, razing the surrounding buildings of nearly a thousand meters to the ground and creating a deep pit like a nuclear bomb attack.

Therefore, as soon as they arrived at Tokyo Skytree, Anson Lu's order was of course for everyone to immediately evacuate the city center.

Because of the several days of rehearsal and preparation in advance, those present were all super elite players ranked in the top 3,000 in the world, so their execution capabilities were naturally incomparable to those of ordinary players.

Therefore, they evacuated very quickly, and in just 40 seconds they had already maintained a distance of nearly 2,000 meters from the Tokyo Sky Tree.

During this period, Jiang Yiji put on a jade mask and summoned the Azure Dragon from the jade ancient beast. This oriental dragon, which looked like an ink painting, carried nearly a thousand mage and priest players to evacuate the Tokyo Sky Tree, ensuring a perfect scene with no one left out.

As for players who have changed their profession to archers, their movement speed is naturally not slow due to the support of skills, so they do not need the support of sequence players and can maintain the same speed as the large army.

At this moment, sixty seconds passed.

People in Tokyo's prosperous downtown area looked out at the dazzling tower in the city center from afar. The Tokyo Skytree was blooming with a blazing white light in the night sky.

It was shortly after dusk, and the setting sun sank below the horizon, taking away the remaining afterglow from the earth, and the world was filled with gray.

Immediately afterwards, neon lights lit up one after another all over Tokyo like falling dominoes.

The bustling night scene is brightly lit, with dark skyscrapers standing side by side like giants, and the elevated railway casting bright sparks when the train passes by.

In an instant, a long dragon roar resounded through the sky.

"roar--!!!"

At this moment, the gloomy clouds were swirling wildly, and the night moon was casting a cold light.

The world suddenly changed color, and the extremely cold moonlight enveloped Tokyo. The whole city welcomed a strong cold current, just like Siberia’s approaching winter. Every towering building was covered with layers of overlapping snow and fog, and the trains passing through the elevated railway were frozen in place.

It's coming.

Suddenly, a huge shadow appeared in the sky. This existence, like a snow-white meteorite, went straight through the clouds and smashed into the earth.

It was like a comet wrapped in the aurora, dragging a mixture of red and white light, smashing into the earth squarely, with an unstoppable force, crushing the world-famous Tokyo Sky Tree and all the high-rise buildings around the Tokyo Sky Tree into ashes and dust, turning them into a wasteland.

This extremely white comet, like the aloof Aphrodite, brings with it an irresistible sea, sweeping, swallowing, covering and infecting everything wherever it goes.

It seems that nothing in the world is more dazzling than this comet with countless colors, as if all the light is gathered into this beam of light.

Tokyo was as dark as ink, and everything was silent.

There was no sound, no light, just like the moment of deathly silence before a nuclear bomb exploded, a moment of darkness, and then a loud bang that was loud enough to burst the eardrums.

“Bang!!!!”

The sand within a radius of one hundred meters was all blown up into the sky, and the dust covered half of the sky.

Japan's capital is like an oil painting immersed in the deep sea. All the colors are disintegrated in that instant, as if God has taken away the seasoning plate of the world.

A terrifying huge pit appeared in the city center, but no shadow appeared, which made the people who were still in shock fall into deep confusion.

The world's number one assassin, Wang Youjin, frowned: "Where's the dragon?"

William was also surprised and said, "I don't think I saw it. It's impossible that he teleported as soon as he entered the venue, right?"

"Something's wrong." Crow raised an eyebrow.

Anson Deer looked at this scene, and his pupils slowly shrank: "Wait... the one that just fell down didn't seem to be that dragon?"

Absolutely right.

When the extremely cold air that swept across the city faded, the deep pit under the Tokyo Tower was empty, leaving only pieces of broken ice...

...The dragon just now shattered into ice?

No, it would be better to say that what just crashed down was a meteorite formed by ice, not a real white dragon!

Thinking about this.

The chill was like a sharp sword that pierced deeply into Anson Lu's internal organs, and every pore of his body closed.

"What a beast..." The moment Anson Deer realized the truth, he raised his head in anger and stared at the night sky above his head.

Sure enough, it was just as he expected.

A giant dragon covered with snow-white scales and half a hundred meters long was hiding its majestic body behind the clouds, overlooking them with its huge erect pupils.

At this distance, if the dragon landed, all the ordinary players would die, and die completely...

Because they had no way to evacuate the impact range immediately before the snow dragon landed.

That's right.

Not only did the system set a trap for them, the principal had also fallen into a trap induced by the information that "the twelfth round of the copy is the world boss battle."

But that's not all, the second trap had already been set before the first round of dungeons began, when the system introduced the "World Boss Battle" to all players.

At that time, the system played a video showing how the Tokyo Snow Dragon fell from directly above the Tokyo Sky Tree.

Because it happened at the very beginning of the evolution game, it was an extremely memorable video, and almost no one would forget the drill video of that day.

The game system seemed to be reminding all players in a deafening voice that after entering the world boss battle, they must immediately evacuate the Tokyo Tower in the city center to prevent themselves from being affected by the arrival of the white dragon, otherwise they will be killed.

But……

It was not until this moment, when Anson Deer saw the meteorite destroy the center of Tokyo and shattered into countless ice cubes in the ruins, that he reacted.

That thing that fell from the Tokyo Tower wasn't the dragon at all... it was just a pure meteorite, an ice ball created by the snow dragon!

While everyone was blinded by the illusion before them, the real dragon... had already hidden behind the clouds and was eyeing them.

Urushihara Ritsu moved his deep eyes and said in surprise:

"Yes, what fell just now was just an ordinary meteorite, and the real dragon is right above us right now."

When Crow said this, it was as calm as a joke, but the pupils of all the players present instantly stood upside down and their hair stood on end.

At this moment, a terrifying cold current swept in from the sky.

All the players suddenly raised their heads and saw a mad dragon covered with dark white scales, swooping down with unstoppable momentum.

At the same time, it is surrounded by four huge icebergs.

The white cold air swept over like an overwhelming force. These icebergs were like escorts of a nuclear bomb about to fall to the ground. They gathered loyally around the snow dragon to ensure that it could land in the most shocking manner, thus crushing all the impurities on the ground into desolation.

Every iceberg around Xuelong is enough to smash the Titanic.

Not to mention the nearly three thousand players on the long street. If they let the iceberg and the white dragon fall, they will end up with no body left.

Because of this, the principal at the time had no other choice. In order to protect the players present, he could only try to use the power of "Sisdoria" to transfer the snow dragon and the four icebergs that fell with him to the past time and space.

That was in 1912. The principal brought the Snow Dragon to the Atlantic Ocean. The Snow Dragon descended from the sky, sweeping across the night sea with four icebergs. The falling icebergs hit the Titanic, leading to the famous Titanic shipwreck.

Five snow-white "comets" were getting closer and closer to the ground, and every ordinary player present fell into deep despair.

Their pupils were bloodshot and despair was spreading in their hearts like thorns.

Death is getting closer...

And they cannot escape.

Just now, the impact of the icy meteorite that fell towards the Tokyo Tower had already affected an area within a radius of one kilometer.

By analogy, they evacuated several kilometers away before the snow dragon and the four icebergs landed, which was almost impossible.

Since that was impossible, he would have to face the head-on collision of the snow dragon...

In this extreme situation, the sequence players can hardly protect themselves, let alone have the spare time to take care of the nearly 2,900 ordinary players.

At this moment, the sound of Anson Lu splitting rocks and flowing clouds was like a hammer, powerfully shattering the panic in everyone's hearts.

"Ragnarok chessboard, unfold."

The moment the order was given, the chessboard with a radius of nearly 250 meters centered on his body almost covered half of the city.

The golden light shone brightly, and the shadow of a temple seemed to be floating in the sky. The whole of Tokyo was shaking and trembling with fear for the gods who were about to descend.

"I don't have time to say it a second time..." Anson Lu took a deep breath and gave a cold order: "All team members, try to move closer to the center of the chess field."
