Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Oh? Just a pearl at the size of rice and you want to light up too?” Looking at the four flying missiles charging at them, Zhang Lisheng whispered in a genteel manner in Mandarin before casting the spell ‘connect’ in his mind, secretly commanding his wizard gus to come out for battle.

In an instant, a snake and a spider shadow flashed in front of him before penetrating the cabin wall and disappearing without a trace. Then, a 100-meter long giant wyrmdragon suddenly appeared at the sea of clouds and on its endless body also stood a four-faced spider that had a body size bigger than the passenger plane.

At the instant the two wizard gus emerged in the shape of a boosted spell, Ghostface abruptly leaped up high from the wyrmdragon’s back, charging directly at the four foreign world’s self-propelled missiles that were rushing towards the Howebird Plane.

The violent hurricane in the air caressed the soft hair on the wizard gu’s body till they fluttered in a swaying manner. At that instant, when the missiles spread out to dodge away from the wizard gu, the soft hair of the wizard gu suddenly stretched out endlessly as Ghostface’s body was sucked out to transform into a net that encompassed the entire sky, catching the self-propelled missiles that were unable to dodge away in the end.

After they were wrapped in the silk net transformed by the wizard gu, the missiles that were originally emitting heavy steam bounced a few times and the steam ejected from them suddenly dissipated, causing them to turn into scrap iron.

Right at this moment, the net that was bunched up together and was dropping rapidly along with the four missiles suddenly spread out and transformed back into silk threads. In the end, it was re-weaved to form the living body of Ghostface again.

At the same time, the wyrmdragon that was already producing smog and stirring up the clouds in the sky, extended out its four claws full of green linings and grabbed the air. Right away, four giant and solidified five-toed claws that were formed by white thick clouds were formed in the air as they grabbed at the four missiles that were falling to the ground. After the missiles were grabbed, the claws disappeared into nothingness together with the missiles soundlessly.

Then, the wyrmdragon hovered while spiraling downwards on the air wrapped in thick clouds, making its way towards Ghostface that was climbing up its silk towards itself. After the two wizard gu combined into one, they disappeared into the clouds in a flash.

“This is the true face of the angels sent by God...” Charlie, who had been praying for a long time but did not receive any destruction, opened his eyes. When he saw the scene of how the wyrmdragon casting its omniscient power to destroy the foreign world’s missiles, he could not help but whisper in great bafflement.

However, after everything had vanished into thin air, he saw Tina hugging Zhang Lisheng tightly without saying anything but had a shocked and admiring look on her face, a seemingly absurd, but actually more reasonable conjecture flashed across his mind, causing his body to freeze right away.

“Lisheng, since you have such a great ability, why don’t you shoot down all the missiles and save the city on land?” As Charlie’s mind was running wild with all sorts of possibilities, Tina whispered in her boyfriend’s ear.

Even though it seemed to be very easy for Zhang Lisheng to command the two transformed wizard gus to destroy the four ‘steam civilization’ self-propelled missiles, in truth, he had already done all he could.

If he wanted to block hundreds of missiles, it would probably need to be done by exhausting all of his energy. It was just not an action that would be taken by a wizard to go to such great lengths for a group of people he had never met before.

After being stunned for a while, he shook his head and said, “Tina, those missiles will naturally be shot down by the missile interception system. It’s not my place to be bothered by them. If I hastily help, I may even cause misunderstandings and may be attacked by the US soldiers as an enemy.”

Even though Zhang Lisheng’s words were merely an excuse, it was actually very reasonable too if one pondered over it. The girl nodded her head as she listened to it and did not say anything more, just continuing to lie in her boyfriend’s arms and looked at the missiles outside the window.

Not long after, just as his boyfriend had assumed, she saw another round of intercepting missiles that were spurting flames out of their tails drawing arched lines in the air in a scrambling manner as they charged towards the missiles of the foreign world in the distance.

Unfortunately, with the experience of the previous interception, the Karlado people’s self-propelled missile made a smart response this time. Among the hundreds of missiles, half of them suddenly slowed down while another half increased their speeds to charge towards the Earthling’s missiles. They exploded in the air first and formed steam hurricanes in the air, interfering with the orbits of the intercepting missiles and dying together with them.

“The interception failed! There are still half of those steam flying objects! God! The city! They have already reached the sky above the city! On top of that, that looks like it’s not a small city! This is bad...” After that, in Tina’s cry of shock, the remaining missiles from the foreign worlds began to drop rapidly and dive to the city on the ground.

Unlike his girlfriend who was in great anxiety, Zhang Lisheng quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Since the city had become the target now, the Karlado’s missiles would inevitably destroy the city first and would no longer take Howebird Plane as their target. In other words, the plane was safe now.

Despite thinking so, he still comforted Tina, “Don’t worry, the US is not South Africa. How can she possibly let the Karlado’s missiles attack the city just like that? I’m sure she has other defensive methods...”

All of a sudden, a steel fortress burst out of the clouds as it hovered in the air with the help of several thousands of inverted giant propellers underneath it, along with several dozens of side-mounted propellers on the rear side, pushing it forward. The steel fortress was so huge that it was completely inconceivable, it was emitting a buzzing sound that was getting louder and louder and interrupted Zhang Lisheng’s sentence.

Then, under the dumbstruck gaze of everyone in the cabin, streaks of black figures suddenly emerged from the deck of the sky fortress. They ran rapidly and leaped to the ground like committing suicide.

When they reached midair, their hands, feet, and back suddenly spurted out boiling hot white flames that drove them to fall rapidly, catching up to the foreign world’s missiles that were about to drop from the sky. They grabbed onto the missiles with force and brushed across the tall buildings at a low altitude before flying upwards to the sky again.

The missiles that were hugged by those figures flying freely in the air in a supersonic speed began to explode when they rose up into the air. Those black figures were swept into the typhoon formed by the high-temperature steam of several thousands of degrees generated by the unknown liquid boiling. They tumbled and began to be less agile in their actions, appearing to be injured but it was fortunate that nobody was killed.

“W-What are those, Lisheng? Did you see that?” It was only until the black figures had resolved the crisis and flew back to the sky fortress in the air, and the steel fortress had accelerated to disappear in the distant sky that Tina, who had been stunned for a while, finally muttered.

“I saw it, Tina,” Zhang Lisheng replied with a dry mouth. “What the f*ck? So we’re actually living in the era of ‘Transformers’?”

When the chairman of the LS Group’s Board of Directors sitting in the plane was shocked by the powerfulness demonstrated by the US’ hidden technology, in the oval office located in the West Wing in a large white house symbolizing the highest authority of the world’s most powerful country located at Pennsylvania Avenue, NW in Washington, D.C, the owner of the house, who was the leader of the Western free world, looked at the projections of the battle from the frontlines and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After leaning his back that had been straightened till it had gone completely numb on the black leather chair, he turned to the cabinet ministers sitting on both sides of the elliptical conference table with an expression of relief and said with his hands spread out wide, “The crisis has finally been lifted! Everyone, now tell me, what do you think of this?”

An old man wearing a black suit who had a faint smile on his face since the very start said first, “I have a very simple opinion, Mr. President. Our Transformers Program has gone very smoothly and the effect was remarkable but unfortunately, it’s exposed at a time that it’s not supposed to. Before our pre-emptive strike towards the Karlado people has even started, it has already ended. If we battle it out with the Karlado people in the future, it’d be revenge for they have invaded the US and this would inadvertently make our country seem selfish and short-sighted. I think that since the Karlado people have tried to do everything possible and paid a heavy price before this only to properly occupy the three Cape Town provinces of South Africa with reasons, then they should never launch a war so easily and take the initiative to launch an attack on us. Well, unless those foreign world’s people already know that we’re planning to launch an unannounced war at them.”

He was Fernand, the Secretary of State of the United States.

In the US, it was no doubt that the department that set the “strategic planning” to launch a war with the foreign world’s people that involved the entire country in its course was none other than the Ministry of National Defense. When Fahr could tell that the Secretary of State pointed the arrow at him, he responded in a furious manner, “Fernand, are you saying that we’ve leaked out our battle plan in advance? Let me tell you, this is simply impossible! The Ministry of Defense has the strictest security measures and everyone knows about this...”

“Don’t be angry, Fahr,” The Secretary of State looked at the short and fat Fahr who was infuriated directly opposite of him and interrupted his words with a smile. “I was merely making a guess. Not only that, this is something that can be thought by anybody with normal logic. Why don’t you look around if you don’t believe me?”

Fahr was stunned and looked around. Sure enough, he was surrounded with suspicious eyes and this included President Rand as well. His expression changed and finally succumbed to reality as he lowered his head and said, “I understand. I’ll order an internal investigation on this matter.”

“Good, Fahr!” Since the other party took the initiative to express his willingness to launch an investigation on this leak, Rand looked at Fernand with a tacitly understanding look and said in satisfaction, “Don’t be depressed. With the guarantee of the success by the ‘Transformers Program’, you won’t have to resign even if you really found that somebody has leaked this out. Speaking of it, who would have ever thought that the combination of the metal ingot in a grocery store in Shrimp World No. 1 with our current existing technology would actually be able to produce such a magical effect, creating something like the Transformer and the Sky Fortress that would only exist in a sci-fi movie.”

“Mr. President, the ‘Transformers Program’ originated from the ‘Doomsday Terminator Program’ in District 51. It’s already in the stage of completion and we actually found the light steel in the alchemy shop that is also considered rare in the foreign world...”

“Alright, Franklin, alright! I don’t need you to keep reminding me which is right and which is wrong constantly. As the chief state adviser, you should focus your attention on the more important stuff,” Looking at his white-haired best friend who was once tall and huge-built, the US president’s good mood disappeared in a flash as he said irritably. “For example, those two monsters that appeared and disappeared suddenly. Even though it’s a coincidence that no satellites have taken any pictures of them, according to the radar observations, one of the monsters was more than two hundred meters long while the other was about a hundred meters long. Not only that, they can even fly so this is a very big threat! But, of course, they’re nothing but two small insects in front of Giant King Kong.”

As he was speaking, his tone was suddenly filled with excitement.
