My Range is One Million-Chapter 236 - Dragon – 2

Chapter 236: Dragon – 2

#1

The Earth’s crust rose and danced. The rain of fire poured down from the sky and in the rain, the 11 colonies of the United States disappeared. Only two hours, the time it took for 11 colonies of 300,000 square meters to turn into ruins was just two hours.

When the head of the United States heard of this urgent entry from the military line, they all thought it was ridiculous. Each colony had at least 1,000 Hunters. Only the United States, with its strong economic power and richer hunter resources than any other country in the world, could do it. Even without their hunter resources, the US military boasts of the latest military weapons. Their bases were equipped with strategic weapons that boast of its capability to drive Tier 8 monsters.

“Help me!”

“AGHHHHH!”

All became useless. They couldn’t believe it, but they saw it themselves. A huge form floating over the 11 colonies… It was a golden giant figure shining brightly in the sun with its scales as big as humans arranged neatly to form a formidable armor.

The colony fell into the hell of despair as the giant thing swept through the colony over a dozen times.

Dozens of missiles were sent in an attempt to stop it, but of course, they failed.

“Fire magic!”

A torrent of flames poured out from the monster’s head, pushing the people below to run away.

That rain of flames melted the tanks and roasted the people inside of them. The missiles that were not fired blew up, creating further damage.

*KUKUKUKUKUKU*

The tectonic crust was split, buildings are falling, and the people were screaming as they ran away. A true living hell had unfolded.

“This can’t be won.”

In despair, the Colonel Commander sat down in despair even though he knew that he was being filmed on the side.

Aside from physical attacks, the monster destroyed the 11 colonies solely through the magic he was beaming out.

The US president, who had maximum control of the media, hurriedly convened an emergency meeting and silently watched the last video of the 11 colonies in a bunker under the White House.

“It’s a dragon. Do I have to subscribe to EloPaper in the future? ”

The Secretary of Homeland, who knows about the Elus Dragons shook his head.

“Now is not the time to say that! Our 11 Colonies were wiped out! We didn’t even have the time to use nuclear weapons!”

*BANG*

US Secretary of Defense, Hamilton, slammed the table. “There are 50,000 Americans living in those 11 colonies. Nuclear weapons, you say?! ”

While the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of Homeland were shouting at each other, the director of the FBI opened his mouth with a heavy face.

“It’s not important now. Tracking that dragon is possible, you should immediately issue an MH 10 alert to all of our Elus Colonies. ”

In the case of monsters or villains appearing, dropping an MH 10 into the colony, the highest level of alert, would mean that all colonies’ economic activity would stop. That’s how serious this was. They haven’t calculated the amount of damage that that dragon had done but if they showed that video to everyone, not one of them would be able to say a thing.

“Do we have any countermeasures for it?”

“Ummm.”

Everyone shut their mouths with a firm look. At this time, the name of the ten-star Hunter from the Republic of Korea came to their minds.

It was because of the American pride of Hunter hegemony. These past years, their pride in being the strongest country of hunters had crumbled down because of Korea. It would be such a shame for them to ask for help.

“Hah, anyway, our priority is finding it first.”

“I have something to tell you.” The CIA Director, Neil Howard, raised his hand to call everyone’s attention.

Tracing is the CIA’s responsibility by managing Oracle’s proud Oracle system.

Neil Howard opened his mouth with a video on the screen.

“At the time when the 11 colonies were ruined, a strong mana wave was detected that was not registered with the Oracle. At first, I thought it was Villain but I analyzed the CCTV video…”

On the screen were powerful monsters and people quickly passing through the Colony Gate Management Station. The screen then changed and a shadow passed by on the footage. Everyone’s mouths began to widen.

They saw a creepy figure of a cursed monster flying in the air. Thousands of lives would disappear as soon as the monster bombs the gate, however, it turned around and faded out like a mirage.

It evaporated in an instant into the sky as if it was a lie…

“I noticed an unregistered mana wave through the gate shortly after that happened.”

The CIA director stopped the screen and opened his mouth.

“What is the connection between that and that unregistered mana wave? As you know, the gate is 40 meters in diameter,” asked the Secretary of Homeland.

The monster that appeared seemed a bit slimmer, but no matter how crumpled it seemed, it won’t be able to pass through that gate. In addition, their security was not that bad to the point that they would let a monster in.

“As you know, I think we should analyze it further, considering that the monster uses magic powers that have not yet been identified.”

“Huh, Neil, sounds like you’re saying that the monster has shrunk to make itself pass through the gate.”

The FBI chief spoke for the sake of making fun, but the CIA director, Neil, nodded as if he was right by throwing his finger upwards before switching the screen.

“At around 13:00 today, a human awakener with that same mana wavelength near downtown Los Angeles was captured. And about 20 minutes later, it was captured about 30km away.”

“Now, we are talking about monsters.”

The deputy director of the FBI knocked on the table.

He was implying that Neil should stop being ridiculous. Neil nodded, however, his point was correct.

“Yes. It looks like a human, but it has the same mana wavelength. That is the monster we’re talking about.”

When he pushed the tablet, dozens of dots began to appear on the screen.

The red spots appeared at random… there were about 20 of them and they started to connect in time.

“If this is not a monster, what is a monster?”

All the red dots on the screen were labeled as an awakener and underneath, a magnified version of the CCTV footage appeared. The screen that appeared was that of a CCTV installed in a shop, and the figure in the screen was throwing boxes given by the store owner in the air. The boxes disappeared from the air. It looked like a subspace used by hunters. The difference is that boxes went in indefinitely.

“It’s a woman? But what is that? What is she doing? ”

“She was stealing cigarettes.”

“Stealing?”

“Yeah. The store owner is giving it to them so naturally, but she did not actually pay. The funny thing is that all the shopkeepers thought that they were all paid for. The crucial thing is that after checking all the CCTVs, the gate closest to the 11th colony where the woman was first discovered is connected to LA. ”

After leaving the shop, the woman walked down the street with an excited look before flashing away.

“What is that … what?”

“I contacted the Awakening Analysis team and told them that they couldn’t figure it out. The ability was called ‘teleport’ and so far, none of the awakeners had used that ability.”

“Not even unofficially?”

Everyone who knew the meaning of formal and informal closed their mouths. They were all busy thinking about their newly discovered skills. It looks like it’s not a big deal, but it was a tremendous ability just like what the CIA director said.

“There is no awakener that can use that skill. We can’t rule one’s ability to shrink or to turn into a human just yet.”

“So, what do you want to say?” The US president, Bill Trump, said from the podium. With haste, he asked for the CIA director’s explanation.

“Our analysis team claimed that it’s possible that our subject could turn into a human, although it hasn’t been filmed.”

A monster turning into a human? It sounds like something that would only appear in fantasy novels.

“What is the basis for this analysis?”

“We don’t have enough evidence. In fact, it was such a foolish hypothesis that I tried to categorize it as a minority report.”

At the end of his speech, everyone on the market frowned as they started at the CIA director.

Was he aware of how urgent this meeting was? The influence of those in this position was too great to say that inferences were true without intuition.

One would never say how the effects of these little disagreements would affect the hegemony of the United States.

“Are you saying that this dragon is transforming into a human woman just to infiltrate the earth, roam LA, and steal cigarettes?”

“Yes, and the Oracle Systems says that they are all the same person.”

“If you’re right, it means you have to announce MH 10 all over America. Do you know what that means?” Bill Trump said in a firm voice. There was a huge difference between announcing it to the colonies and getting the news to the entire mainland of the United States.

“I’ll put my position in line. I believe that the Oracle system is perfect.”

In Neil’s words, everyone’s expressions were hardened.

“Good, then let’s discuss how to catch that woman.”

At the words of the president, everyone sighed with a firm look. This monster smashed 11 colonies in two hours, they should not approach this lightly…

“According to their actions, they have been identified as having a level of human intelligence. How about we start a conversation?”

“Listen to yourself. They wiped out our colonies, and you want to start a conversation with them?”

“Isn’t it a matter of judging by the logic of black and white?”

“No compromise with monsters!”

As the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of Homeland growl with each, the CIA director, Neil Howard, who is acquainted with Jaehwang, moved as if he was about to say something.

“The US Hunter Office will try it first,” the man sitting still at the end said while raising his body.

This is Jean Tefman, the Secretary-General of the US Hunter Secretariat.

“U.S. Hunter Office?”

“Yes.”

“It’s not just a challenge. It looks like a Tier 9 monster judging by looks alone, but this monster uses magic and has intelligence as well.”

“I am speaking with enough possibilities. Also, in recent years, the body of the 9 Tier Monster has been released in large quantities, and our elite forces have mostly been upgraded with weapons and armor made of its by-products. Furthermore, as the CIA director said, if the woman is the dragon, we’ll have to capture her once she’s in her human form.” He showed confidence.

They spent an astronomical amount of money to buy tier 9 monster by-products but thanks to it, their total battle power had increased tremendously. It was not just a change of weapons and armor.

“I acknowledge your confidence, but I think you should ask the Archer Master for support in the case. Don’t forget that this monster is now in LA. If it fails, it will cause damage that is incomparable to our colonies,” Neil said.

It was up to the hunters to take the risks and not to themselves.

Always consider the worst.

“Neil, since when have you been so thirsty for a 10-star hunter? We are not weak! ” Jean Tefman frowned.

The president was also present, so he didn’t flex, but he was also a seven-star hunter. Just by existing, he intimidated Neil Howard.

Neil stared at Jean Tefman’s eyes while he was sweating. “Your pride!”

“Excuse me?!”

There was a breathtaking silence between the two. At that time, the video on the screen changed abruptly and a man jumped in. It is the president’s assistant who was waiting in the outside conference room

“Emergency! The Dragon has appeared in LA!”

When they saw the giant figure on the screen, everyone in the room froze. It’s overwhelming size that was so large it covered half of the sky intimidated them.

It turned its huge head around and its eyes narrowed

*bump*

The top part of its stomach popped out. Then, the bulge moved to his neck and into his mouth. It leaned back as if it was about to puke something out and when it opened its cave-like fangs…

*KWWAAAAA*

Blue dazzling flashes ripped the ground. The buildings exposed to the front of the flash tore up in two. Everything it swept past exploded, it even swallowed up the sound. The people that were caught melted without even screaming.

It took less than three minutes for a block of Los Angeles to be destroyed by an outbreak of the Dragon’s breath. The dragon glanced at what he had done and turned west by fluttering his huge wings.

“He, call him.”

“Who…”

“The Master Archer…”
