Dragon Country!

In the highest-level conference hall, the representatives of the five countries were gathered here, all with solemn expressions on their faces.

After the Earth’s mutation, some small countries were either eroded by monsters or belonged to the neighbouring big countries to seek shelter.

Currently, there were only five countries on Earth: Dragon Country, Eagle Country, Tiger Country, Bear Country and Wolf Country.

Unless there were special circumstances, the five great powers would not gather together.

In front of the representatives of the five major countries, a huge curtain unfolded, revealing the border area of the five major countries.

At this time, at the border of the five major countries, a thick black mist extended, covering an area of about one million square kilometers.

From a distance, it looked as if this place had directly disappeared from the map.

On the main seat, the representative of the Dragon Country looked around, coughed lightly, and said, “The situation this time happened very suddenly, so I asked all the representatives to come here urgently.”

“Looking at the current situation, the annual Lord Space materialization has encountered a problem. Right now, there isn’t a single place outside that has recorded a new Lord’s Space materialization.”

“And in this area, the black mist has interfered with the positioning and communication instruments, so we can’t clearly see the situation inside.”

“According to the perception of the several Tier 9 lords, all the Lord Space materializations should be inside this black mist.”

The representative of the Bear Country frowned and said, “What exactly is going on there? Your Dragon Country has the strongest detection ability. Do you understand the situation inside?”

The representative of the Dragon Country shook his head and said, “I don’t know. The lords and troops we sent in have all disappeared. Moreover, there are the fluctuations of Tier 9 monsters coming from the black mist. I think the situation you encountered should be the same.”

The eyes of the representatives of the other four kingdoms flickered slightly. It was obvious that they had encountered the same situation.

“Could this be the work of a Tier 9 monster? It moved all the lords who had materialized their territories into this black mist?” The representative of the Wolf Country said with a dark look in his eyes.

The representative of the Eagle Country elegantly tidied up his white gown and said lightly, “Impossible. Such a big move can only be achieved by the joint efforts of many Tier 9 monsters. However, monsters have territorial awareness and even have the instinct to attack each other. Tier 9 monsters have always lived alone. It is already good enough if they do not fight each other when they meet. How can they cooperate?”

The representative of the Tiger Nation said in a deep voice, “Then how do we explain the pressure of Tier 9 monsters inside? There must be Tier 9 monsters inside the black mist anyway, and there are many of them.”

The representative of the Dragon Country said with a twinkle in his eyes, “We are not very clear about the current situation, but this is a great change for all of us humans.”

“I suggest that the competition among the various countries be put on hold for a while and that they cooperate fully to investigate the situation of the black mist in order to prevent the destruction of the new lords inside.”

The representative of the Wolf Kingdom said with a sinister smile, “Cooperate? It’s just a year’s worth of new lords. Is there a need to make such a big fuss? Even if they are all annihilated, it won’t have much of an impact.”

The Wolf Kingdom had been at a disadvantage in the competition among the five great countries over the years and had lost a lot of resources. It was holding back its anger and wanted to surpass them. At this time, it naturally didn’t want to let go of the dispute.

The representative of the Dragon Country said in a deep voice, “What if such a situation happens to the new lords next year? What if it’s the same in the future?”

The hearts of the representatives of the other four countries sank when they heard that. The new lords were the blood of the new generation. Countless lords died in each country every year. If they did not replenish the blood, the living space would soon be occupied by monsters.

They could still afford to lose a few new lords for a year. However, what if it was the same situation next year as the representative of the Dragon Country had said? What if it was the same in the future?

It was the first time such a situation had happened, after all. No one could figure it out.

At that moment, a new message came from the curtain in front of them.

A figure appeared on the curtain and said to everyone, “Representatives, the investigation work in the black mist is very difficult now, but with the perception of the special forces of a Tier-9 Lord, we have a rough plan for the black mist.”

As he spoke, the black mist on the curtain began to be divided into three parts.

The figure pointed to the outermost part and said, “This is the edge of the black mist. There is a tyrannical aura here. There should be many Tier 7, 8, or even Tier-9 monsters here.”

As he spoke, the figure pointed to the middle part and said, “This is the largest area, occupying seven-tenths of the entire black mist. All of the new lord’s territories are in this area.”

Finally, the figure pointed to the last black mass in the middle and said, “This is the innermost area. It’s enveloped by an even denser black mist. We can’t detect anything inside at all.”

“According to the latest detection results, the three areas are divided. The tier 7, 8, and 9 monsters in the outer layer will not enter the second layer. However, there are Tier-6 and lower monsters in the second layer.”

“The situation in the denser black mist zone in the center is still unknown.”

After the figure on the curtain finished sharing this information, he directly disappeared.

The representatives of the five countries fell into silence, obviously digesting the latest information.

At this time, the Tiger Country representative suddenly said in a deep voice, “Do you feel that the scene this time is somewhat familiar?”

The representatives of the few countries were shocked in their hearts, and then said in horror, “A hundred years ago, the global change seemed to have started with a sudden black mist!”

“Could it be that the black mist this time has something to do with the black mist from a hundred years ago?”

“This year seems to be the hundredth year of the global change. Could it be that something will really happen?”

“This… things are becoming more and more complicated!”

The representative of the Dragon Country said, “No matter what, we must pay attention to the black mist mutation this time. I propose that the five countries cooperate and do their best to explore the black mist. At least, we can fight for the survival of the new lords among them.”

The representative of the Tiger Country said without any hesitation, “I agree.”

The representative of the Bear Country looked around and then said, “I agree too.”

The representative of the Eagle Country glanced at the representative of the Dragon Country and said softly, “I also agree.”

Everyone’s gaze fell on the representative of the Wolf Country.

The representative of the Wolf Country snorted coldly, “Hmph! Why are you looking at me? I also agree.”

At this point, the representatives of the five countries all agreed to unite and face this sudden black mist together.

Very quickly, the five great countries all took action. The high-level lords moved towards the location of the black mist.

At this time, the new lords in the black mist did not know what had happened. Almost every new lord’s territory had been attacked.

Those who were prepared or had relatively powerful units resisted the attacks of the monsters.

However, some of the weaker new lords who had not made any defensive preparations were all attacked and killed by the monsters.

For the entire night, Ren Qi’s expression was tense. He did not relax in the slightest to prevent other monsters from attacking.

However, he did not know if it was because they knew that there were traps around Ren Qi’s territory. No other monsters appeared around him.

The night was silent. Ren Qi only let out a sigh of relief when the sun rose.

The monsters were the most aggressive at night. They would restrain themselves during the day.

But then he was startled and raised his head.

The sky was dark!
