Chapter 1698: Chapter 1515: King of Monsters Part 1
Nestled amidst the gentle snowfall blanketing the pristine tundra, Clarkson defies expectations. A marvel of urban planning, it seamlessly blends with its awe-inspiring backdrop - a dramatic wall of towering mountains. These very mountains, once a source of valuable trade resources, have also profoundly shaped Clarkson's architectural landscape. The city's skyline boasts a fascinating mix. Soaring, futuristic skyscrapers stand shoulder-to- shoulder with older structures, their designs echoing the majestic peaks that loom overhead. Technology thrives in Clarkson, attracting a keen international spotlight. This vibrant capital pulsates with innovation, a testament to its position as the heart of the Drexian Empire's principality.
Hundreds of kilometers away from the gleaming spires of Clarkson shrouded in almost perpetual twilight, lay the forgotten Isle of Whispers. Unlike the pristine tundra of Clarkson, this island was a tapestry of harsh beauty. Jagged cliffs, sculpted by millennia of relentless waves, formed a formidable barrier around the island's heart. Their dark, volcanic rock shimmered with an oily sheen in the rare moments when sunlight managed to pierce the thick, swirling mist that perpetually clung to the island like a ghostly shroud.
The interior was a world of its own. Dense, primeval forests, choked with tangled vegetation and ancient trees gnarled by time and the elements, carpeted the island's core. Bioluminescent fungi cast an eerie glow on the damp forest floor, their otherworldly light illuminating the silent, moss-covered ruins that hinted at a civilization long lost. The air hung heavy with the scent of damp earth, decaying leaves, and a faint, salty tang carried on the wind by the unseen ocean.
An unsettling silence reigned, broken only by the mournful cry of unseen birds and the occasional crash of waves against the jagged cliffs. The island thrummed with an unseen energy, a primal force that sent shivers down the spine of any who dared to set foot on its shores. Previously it was a place untouched by time, a land where nature reigned supreme, shrouded in an aura of mystery and whispers of forgotten secrets but no more as in depth of this place was a river and on this river a base.
A base that exceeded 400m in length, was like a malevolent monster had taken up that space in the river itself.
Within that base.
The rays of light from the sunset shone in, within a bunker below, five Drexian soldiers sat cross-legged on the floor gambling. There were hardly any battles that occurred, and when they did occur, there weren't many casualties. Hence when the soldiers gambled, the higher- ups wouldn't bother.
"Oh my god, lousy card!"
A young tanned man cursed as he threw his card away.
"Ten of spades, ten of spades, ten of spades!" a white youth beside couldn't stop shouting, picking up the card that was dealt to him, flipping it over only to curse.
"What bad luck, I've lost again!"
"Haha, I've won again."
A youth with blue long hair laughed, through the bunker's little gap in the wall, he sent a flying kiss out,
"Oh beautiful goddess of luck, continue to shower me with good luck!"
The gap faced straight towards the statue of a certain goddess, however, the statue had long fallen and turned to ruins.
"Bullsheet! The statue of the goddess of luck has already fallen, I don't believe you'll keep winning, again." The bald youth shouted annoyed.
"Wow, quickly come see, what is that!"
One of the soldiers was pointing through the gap, the others immediately ran up to look. "My god!"
"Oh god!"
"It's an emperor-level monster!"
An ear-piercing alarm rang, sounding through the entire base. The calm and relaxed base became busy and tense immediately, countless soldiers began to take their positions and prepare for battle!
With the sunset rays shining down, in front of the enormous military base, a large monster appeared!
This monster's body was about 190m long, its body structure was similar to a 'lion' type monster, and its body was covered with black scales that were as big as houses, every one of them seemed terrifying. It even had a 200m wingspan that was covered in black scales, they looked like they were made of steel!
The horn on its head seemed to want to pierce through the heavens.
Its singular black horn was wrapped by a gold pattern, and its complex patterns spread down to its neck, all over its back, and even to its tail! It was like its entire body was covered by gold and black mixed armor. What was most chilling was those dark golden pupils!
A pair of dark golden pupils, almost, almost like god's eyes, keeping its gaze on the tens of thousands of creatures below it!
A pair of pupils concealing a malevolence.
This was it! An existence that had never appeared in this world before!
"An emperor-level monster in the air, it's courting death."
"Use the magic laser cannons to shoot it down!"
"It's going to die."
While the base's many soldiers were shocked and afraid, they were still very confident in their magical laser cannons, man's greatest weapon, a weapon created by the Ice Empress and the Saintess' knowledge.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Three white beams at frightening speeds attacked the black and golden monster's scales
directly!
The beams dissipated, and there was not even a small explosion.
The scales were undamaged.
"Wooo..." A low humming noise. It was as though the god's roar filled everywhere.
The entire monster population in the surrounding lowered their head in fear, it was oppression on the spiritual level. All the soldiers in the base felt nothing but extraordinary fear. The generals in charge could only look in fear at the monster figure that took up more
than half the screen.
"Just what is that creature?"
"Even the powerful laser cannons couldn't hurt it one bit?"
Suddenly,
The creature opened its mouth and then howled,
HOWL!
RUMBLE!
The sky was dark, in an instant, the space around the creature's mouth had warped, the entire base lifted off the ground and flew towards its mouth. As it flew closer, it became smaller and smaller! The base, which was originally bigger than the creature's entire body had shrunk to no more than five meters long, the soldiers who were nothing more than ants to the creature were all petrified with fear, shouts and screams of fear filled the air.
The creature swallowed the base in one gulp before closing its mouth!
The entire base was gone!
"Oh my god!"
In the distant tall watchtower from which the laser was shot, the soldiers were all pale,
almost as though they had seen a ghost.
RUMBLE!
Two other enormous sea creatures surfaced, if Freya Typhania and the others had seen this, they would have recognized these two creatures were the other two 'Grand Emperor' monsters. The reason why this base was erected here, was to monitor them and the monsters hidden in an underwater dungeon. The waters began to boil as countless other sea monsters surfaced from the underwater dungeon, they all looked as though they'd seen their god in
that mysterious creature.
HOWL!
The creature raised its head and roared, its horn piercing the skies.
It was almost as though it was announcing its arrival.
It had come the King of Monsters!

A/N: By the way Emperor level monster is equal to SSS-Rank, powerful like peak Demigod Ranker,
sometimes even more.
