Chapter 303: Heaven-Sent Dragon

~8 min read 1,574 words

High above, Li Ang looked down at the Spirit Tomb Albion beneath his feet and couldn't help but rub his chin.

'Speaking of which, there should still be people inside. I'll find a chance to clear them out later.'

There were quite a number of Zhong Ta magicians within Spirit Tomb Albion, though most of them had probably not yet realized what was happening outside.

'Besides, Spirit Tomb Albion is a bit too big — having me maintain it with my Rinnegan this whole time isn't very realistic.'

Based on Li Ang's visual estimate, Spirit Tomb Albion was roughly three to four hundred kilometers tall, so its peak was almost reaching the exosphere.

Clearly this couldn't go on, since he couldn't just drop everything else and stay up here the whole time.

Fortunately, Li Ang quickly thought of a solution: treat Spirit Tomb Albion as a satellite and launch it into the sky.

Actually, there was another option — find a place to set Spirit Tomb Albion down, but that would obviously invite constant harassment.

For example, right now.

In Li Ang's perception, a considerable number of fighter jets were flying along with Spirit Tomb Albion.

But this wasn't really anything strange, since he had flown this thing across the entirety of Europa.

Encountering such a colossal object passing through one's airspace — any ruler with a functioning brain would know to send people to investigate.

Combined with what had happened outside Lunduncheng not long ago already spreading across the world, basically every country now knew of the existence of the world's hidden side.

But this was exactly the outcome Li Ang wanted to achieve — after all this commotion, the mystery of this world was bound to decline dramatically.

Something about the world's magic level regressing a hundredfold while I stay the same.

And as Spirit Tomb Albion drew ever closer to Fuyuki City, the entire island nation instantly grew tense.

Bro, no way — why is it heading toward us?!

When the towering rock-and-earth structure that pierced the clouds floated above Fuyuki City, their suspended hearts finally died.

But Li Ang couldn't care less what they were thinking, because for the grand feat he was planning, this was merely an appetizer.

Of course, before that, he still needed to put Spirit Tomb Albion into low Earth orbit.

Thinking of this, Li Ang lightly tapped his finger, and a pale purple sigil appeared at his fingertip.

Primordial Lu En Sigil · Communication.

The target of the communication was naturally Scathach.

"Scathach-sama should have noticed something extra in the sky, right? This is my spoils of war — come find me now."

"Okay."

Li Ang planned to have Scathach help him construct a Chuansong Sect, otherwise once Spirit Tomb Albion was sent into the sky, traveling back and forth would be a bit troublesome.

Not long after, a mature woman wearing a purple gauze dress appeared beside Li Ang.

Scathach looked at the colossal object before her, a somewhat complicated expression crossing her face.

Earlier, when she had been applying buffs, she had already sensed that her Master was probably about to go cause trouble — but this commotion was just too big.

One had to know that in this era of declining mystery, a scene that could already be called a miracle was basically impossible to appear.

But upon recalling that Li Ang was the brother of a Great God, she quickly let it go.

After all, having survived Ragnarök, her Master must certainly have something special about him.

Unaware of what Scathach was thinking, Li Ang opened his mouth and asked: "Scathach-sama, can you open a Chuansong Sect up here? Set the other end in the space I've opened."

"Leave such a small matter to me."

Scathach came back to herself, gave a slight nod, and accepted Li Ang's request.

Constructing a mere Chuansong Sect was no difficult task for her at all.

……

Just as Li Ang was researching how to launch Spirit Tomb Albion into the sky like a satellite, the entire world had already begun to seethe with undercurrents.

First and foremost were the magician groups hidden on the world's hidden side.

The earlier incident at Lunduncheng had gradually fermented online, and combined with the fact that many people had witnessed the magnificent scene of Spirit Tomb Albion crossing Eurasia, more and more ordinary people learned that there were extraordinary beings called magicians living right beside them.

What? Don't believe it?

That exaggerated rock-and-earth structure is currently brazenly floating above Fuyuki City — plenty of island nation citizens have even driven over specifically to see it.

Although the island nation wanted to isolate it, Spirit Tomb Albion was simply too massive, and the cost of doing so was absurdly high.

So in the end, they could only bow in apology and then give up.

You magicians do whatever you want, just don't drop this thing on us.

Precisely because of this, the vast majority of magicians were currently on the verge of madness — after all, as the number of ordinary people aware of the world's secrets increased, mystery was declining dramatically.

If at the very beginning, depending on talent, each magician was allocated bandwidth of 4G or 5G, then now basically everyone was on 3G, and the trend showed it would soon drop to 2G.

Therefore, anyone with even a shred of mobility was now rushing toward the island nation.

It concerned their own survival — no, the survival of the entire magician community — they could not afford to slack off.

But upon recalling the news spread by Zhong Ta survivors, magicians were nonetheless pessimistic about what was to come.

【Type:???】.

【Heaven-Sent Dragon】 — its true identity a dragon species that descended from some distant, unknown planet, possessing the terrifying ability to destroy a nation single-handedly, at minimum.

Originally the magicians hadn't understood why Zhong Ta had given it such a codename, until they personally witnessed the three-hundred-plus-kilometer Spirit Tomb Albion drift toward the cosmos and finally come to rest in low Earth orbit.

Thus Earth gained another small satellite — most ordinary people in the Northeastern Hemisphere could now see the wondrous sight of two satellites at night.

Moreover, the surface of one of the satellites would occasionally flash with cyan-red flowing light.

The island nation's higher-ups had mixed feelings about this situation.

What pleased them was that the other party had finally left above Fuyuki City; what worried them was that the other party was orbiting along with the Earth, so by vertical space, it had never actually left the island nation's airspace.

And if a rock-and-earth structure of that volume were to fall from outer space—

Better not to think about something so terrifying just to imagine.

But Li Ang currently had no mood to care how the outside world viewed him, because he was in the middle of purging the Zhong Ta personnel inside Spirit Tomb Albion.

【Spirit Tomb Albion】, First Layer, the Mining City.

The ones currently managing this place are the Clock Tower's Mystic Remains Dissection Bureau. When Li Ang first appeared, they assumed he was just another Magus who had come from some remote region to seek his fortune.

It was only when the massive number of maid puppets began attempting to take over order here that they realized the newcomer's intentions were far from friendly.

Faced with Li Ang's aggressive advance, the Mystic Remains Dissection Bureau chose to contact the outside world's Clock Tower, only to discover that the Clock Tower, which should have responded, had gone completely silent.

With no other choice, they could only resist while simultaneously dispatching personnel outward to seek reinforcements.

The result was also very simple: space junk + n.

Too bad this isn't the JoJo world; otherwise, a certain Ultimate Life Form could have gained a few more companions.

Without a doubt, the 【Spirit Tomb Albion】 currently floating in space has now become a true dead zone.

Seeing that the personnel of the Mystic Remains Dissection Bureau had all dropped dead without putting up any decent resistance, the other unorthodox Magi had even less courage to rebel.

Li Ang's handling of these personnel was also very simple: repatriate them to Earth.

He didn't need anyone else's help to explore 【Spirit Tomb Albion】. Once Irisviel and Valkyrie had been thoroughly studied, the iterated maid puppets could complete this task.

Watching the puppets currently remodeling the First Layer Mining City, Li Ang secretly thought to himself:

'Once the remodeling here is complete, it can be opened to ordinary people.'

Due to the commotion caused earlier, the vast majority of ordinary people in this world had already learned of the existence of 【Spirit Tomb Albion】.

Li Ang's plan was to subsequently remodel the Mining City into a commercial city, and the products sold would naturally be his alchemical creations.

For example, maid puppets that could operate without relying on the Mystic.

He wasn't doing this to overturn heaven and earth like Doomsday learning Wing Chun, but to take a further step in accelerating this world's Mystic decline. After all, ordinary people couldn't tell the difference between Li Ang's creations and this world's creations.

Don't be fooled by the Clock Tower seeming somewhat weak; in fact, there are still quite a few dangerous creatures on Earth.

For example, that group of scheming old fogeys in the Wandering Sea who long ago detached themselves from the world.
