Chapter 520: A Beatdown for the Lion Head!

Edison was, after all, the Lion King, and his existence was a mixture of all the past presidents of the United States, so he naturally had quite a kingly demeanor.

The Lion King looked at the trio of Lin Ye, and behind him, a red figure descended from the sky like a burning sun.

Karna!

Seeing Karna appear, Diarmuid immediately picked up his twin spears and stood in front of Lin Ye. Although Karna was terrifying, he would absolutely not retreat.

The Lion King waved his hand quite confidently at Karna and said:

"Karna, capture them all. Go easy on them, just lock them up."

After speaking, he prepared to watch Karna's performance. Even Helena stood by quite confidently, thinking about whether she should plead for Lin Ye later, since he had let her go after all. However, one second, two seconds... even five seconds passed, but Karna did not move.

The Lion King was stunned. He didn't understand why Karna, who was usually clean and efficient, was now motionless. He suddenly had an ominous premonition!

"Karna! What are you doing! Why aren't you attacking!"

The Lion King's voice fell, but Karna remained motionless. However, at this moment, Lin Ye's voice suddenly rang out:

"Karna, capture them all. Go easy on them, just lock them up."

What! Such familiar words!

Before the Lion King could react, a scorching heat wave rushed toward his face!

*Swish!*

In the next second, a spear glowing with fire was pointed directly at his lion head!

This scene left the Lion King shocked and furious. He didn't understand why Karna, who had always been incomparably loyal, would suddenly point his spear tip at him!

"Karna! Are you going to betray me!"

Facing Edison's questioning, Karna only said indifferently: "I have always stood on Lin Ye's side. I told you before that we were only cooperating. If I find a better way to save human history, I will leave. Have you forgotten?"

Karna's words were equivalent to admitting that he would stand on Lin Ye's side. Seeing this, how could the Lion King endure it!

"Karna, don't underestimate me! I! Am the King here!"

The Lion King had his own pride. He raised his lion head high and roared! Instantly, dense swarms of mechanical soldiers rushed in from outside! Each of these mechanical soldiers had the strength of a low-level Heroic Spirit; dozens of them would be enough to force a top-tier Servant like Billy the Kid into a desperate situation! And at this moment, there were hundreds of them here!

The Lion King stood in front of this group of mechanical soldiers, and he felt a sense of control over the entire army.

"Fantastic! Excellent! Do you see, Karna! It's not too late for you to apologize to me now!"

Unfortunately, the word "apologize" did not exist in Karna's dictionary! He only said four words indifferently.

"Noble Phantasm release..."

O Brahma, Curse Me!!!

Rank: A+!

Type: Anti-Country Noble Phantasm!

*BOOM!!!*

The sky-filling flames instantly covered the entire military camp! Under the scorching fire, all the mechanical soldiers were burned red-hot. Although their quality was high, they could only gradually melt into molten iron under these flames!

"No!! Karna!!"

The Lion King roared, and behind him, countless neon lights seemed to flicker!!

Noble Phantasm release!

W! F! D!

*Hum!*

Rank: EX

Type: Anti-People Noble Phantasm!

As the Lion King's roar sounded, the flames released by Karna actually gradually calmed down and even dissipated into the sky!

This! Was Edison's Noble Phantasm!

It was a fantasy domination constructed from his three greatest inventions during his lifetime. It was a modern miracle that illuminated the darkness, recorded the sounds of the past, and reflected the real world. Because of the technological advancement he led, mystery would cease to exist!

"Finally getting serious?"

Karna looked at the Lion King in front of him. For the first time, he clearly recognized the strength of this character who seemed like a comedic relief!

However, he was not afraid.

After all, Noble Phantasms also had an upper limit. His A+ Phantasm was indeed suppressed, but if he used his strongest EX God-Slaying Spear, how much could the Lion King weaken it?

And as long as there was even a fraction left, it would be enough to defeat this lion!

"Noble Phantasm release..."

Just as Karna was about to release his Noble Phantasm, a pair of hands pressed down on his spear. The owner of these hands was none other than Lin Ye.

"Lin Ye..."

Looking at the confused Karna, Lin Ye smiled and said to him: "Your Noble Phantasm shouldn't be used here, so leave the rest to me."

Shouldn't be used here?

Although Karna didn't understand what Lin Ye meant, he still obediently retracted his spear. After all, he didn't think Lin Ye's words could be wrong.

Seeing Karna actually retract his spear, Edison on the opposite side was also stunned.

"You?? Human?? Forget it, you'd better let Karna do it, otherwise if word gets to the Celts, wouldn't they laugh at me for bullying someone?"

However, just as Edison's voice fell, a fist the size of a sandbag appeared directly before his eyes!

*BANG!!!*

Following that, Edison's burly body flew out and slammed directly into the wall on the side!

At this moment, Lin Ye was standing where Edison had just been. He rubbed his wrists and said:

"No matter when, never underestimate the power of a human. So... are you ready to be made into braised lion head by me?"

It was just an ordinary punch, but combined with Lin Ye's A++ Strength and EX Mad Enhancement, it was enough to deal with the Lion King.

As for why he wasn't called the Lion King anymore... naturally, it was because after being knocked down by Lin Ye's punch, he was no longer a king.

"Little Sun, take him down and lock him up."

"Understood." Karna nodded and prepared to take the Lion King away. However, he stopped when he passed Helena.

Seeing Karna's gaze, Helena immediately hid behind Lin Ye in fear and said, "Karna, what are you doing? Are you going to lock me up too?"

Karna looked at Lin Ye, and Lin Ye looked at Helena before saying: "Forget about her, she can't cause any trouble anyway."

Karna nodded and carried the unconscious Lion King away.

Seeing the Lion King being taken away, Helena looked at Lin Ye with worry and asked:

"The King has been taken away, what about the United States?"

Without Edison, the United States was a mess, and they couldn't even maintain the mechanical troops. What were they supposed to do?

Hearing Helena's words, Lin Ye pointed at himself: "Am I not a ready-made King?"

"Huh??" Helena's eyes widened.

"What's wrong? Am I not good enough?"

"No, no, no... but, have you really been a king before?" Helena was still a bit worried. Although Lin Ye's strength looked formidable, but... a king needed sufficient leadership and ruling power. Could Lin Ye really do it?

Looking at Helena's suspicious gaze, Lin Ye rolled his eyes helplessly and said: "Don't worry. Although I haven't been a king many times, the kings I've cultivated could already play five tables of mahjong. Rest assured, nothing will go wrong."

Huh???

Helena didn't understand Lin Ye's meaning at all, but she had no other choice and could only stand aside silently.

*Sigh*, people of the United States, you... pray for your own luck.

Meanwhile, in the town of Deming.

"How is it? Has the physician been invited?"

Geronimo looked at Robin Hood and Billy the Kid in front of him. Behind him, Rama, covered in wounds, was still lying there. Although his external injuries had recovered quite a bit, his heart had been pierced halfway by the Black Dog's spear. If they dragged it out any longer, he would probably go to meet his Great God Vishnu.

However, facing Geronimo's eager gaze, Billy the Kid and Robin Hood exchanged a look and shook their heads helplessly.

Seeing the two shake their heads, Geronimo could only sigh helplessly. He had originally thought that if they could heal Rama, they would add a peak combat force to their side, but now...

It seemed there was no hope.

Seeing Geronimo's expression, Billy the Kid thought for a moment, then couldn't help but say: "Actually, we met Karna of the United States on the way. He told us that if we want to save this world, we must find a man named Lin Ye. I think..."

"No, how can we trust Karna's words?" Robin Hood stopped Billy the Kid. After all, Karna was not in the same camp as them; their relationship could even be called enemies. How could they trust an enemy's words?

However, Geronimo hesitated on the side.

"Karna... as the Hero of Charity, he should be worth trusting."

They knew Karna's story—a man who was willing to give up everything for a promise. No one would doubt his character.

"But where is Lin Ye?"

Just as the three were silent, suddenly, a soldier stumbled in from outside. As soon as he rushed in, he shouted to the three in the tent:

"No... not good!! We just received news! The United States... the Lion King of the United States has been overthrown! He has been imprisoned! And the person who took his place! Is named Lin Ye!"

What!!!

Hearing this news, the three looked at each other.

This Lin Ye became king so quickly! But, the United States...

The three still didn't dare to fully believe Karna's words, but Geronimo looked at Rama, who was already on the verge of death, and gritted his teeth:

"Let's go! To the United States!!"

It's just the United States, not some dragon's den or tiger's lair. Surely the three of them, as top-tier Servants, couldn't fail to return alive?

[Requesting flowers]

Meanwhile, on the other side, in the Celtic camp.

"What! You said the new King of the United States is named what!!"

The Mad King Cú Chulainn stared fixedly at Fionn in front of him. Seeing the excited Cú Chulainn, Fionn didn't understand, but he still answered truthfully:

"Lin Ye... you might be unfamiliar with this name, but I still feel it's necessary to tell you his story..."

"No need!" The Mad King raised a hand to interrupt Fionn, his face filled with three parts surprise, three parts joy, and four parts panic. "Lin Ye... I'm too familiar with him. I don't need you to tell me his story. The top expert of the Land of Shadows, the master of the Great Tomb of Nazarick, the man who defeated the God Eater, the legendary Undead Scourge, he... has finally appeared again!"

Huh???

Fionn was even more confused. Is this person you're talking about... the same Lin Ye in my memory who always played support and never had a record of direct confrontation??
