Chapter 354 The Salvation Team Assembles
"How... is this possible..."
'
When he met those huge vertical pupils, Xia Sheng froze, cold sweat trickling down his face.
What he saw was unbelievable; there was a huge head in the sky.
The head was ferocious and terrifying, covered in scales, exuding power that instilled fear in anyone who looked at it, leaving them afraid to move, and... uncertain.
That's not something that should exist in this world.
Because that's a dragon's head!
Its head, shaped like a horse, had distinct folded protrusions and was densely covered with black scales that reflected light, making it seem indestructible.
Its mouth is slightly open, with multiple rows of sharp, inward-curving teeth that can easily tear apart its prey.
It resembles a Western dragon, full of wildness and extremely intimidating!
Xia Sheng stood still, staring intently at the giant dragon head in the sky, his face solemn, his fists clenched, and his heart filled with vigilance.
Is this the culprit behind the continuous torrential rains?
This is the new intruder!
It's actually a dragon!
The strongest invaders they are facing right now are just minotaurs; the species gap is just too big.
But only something like this would be suitable for directly invading reality.
Dragon's words: So the world where the invaders are located is another world?
The intruder was not of the same identity as him, but existed in the same dimension.
A world with magic is indeed stronger than the ordinary world, so it's understandable that he couldn't resist it.
But what role can this person from a higher dimension play?
Wouldn't it be more appropriate to bring in someone from another dimension?
Or are you afraid of being betrayed?
He would never betray them; no one liked them more than him.
But what if the enemy attacking this world is also a world he knows?
If there were people he knew over there, he might not be able to bring himself to do it.
Since He dared to bring him here, He should have considered this possibility, right?
Is it possible that he's the one who can bridge the gap between the two worlds, get the other side to back down, and allow them to coexist peacefully?
This is indeed something only someone from a higher dimension like him is more suited to do.
But in any case, he shouldn't be thinking about these irrelevant things now; he needs to get through the current crisis.
If this dragon were to invade real life, it would cause irreparable destruction, and if the world were invaded, the dungeons would undergo another transformation.
At that time, things will really change drastically.
It must be stopped!
Regardless of whether it's possible or not!
But it was in the sky, and Xia Sheng couldn't get close to it; he couldn't fly.
The only thing that reassures him right now is that ordinary people don't seem to be able to see the dragon's head.
The sky cleared, and people came out of their homes. There were people everywhere, but no one was drawn to the terrifying phenomenon in the sky.
You should know that the dragon's eyes are the size of a person.
Perhaps it's related to the transparent film blocking the dragon's head, like a barrier.
Xia Sheng could see it clearly because the existence of that barrier prevented the dragon from completely invading this world.
Only he and they could see it.
His final protection?
So what should he do next?
He's completely helpless right now.
[Please...defeat it!]
As if responding to Xia Sheng's sense of powerlessness, he suddenly spoke, a voice that had not been heard for a long time.
[What should I do?] Xia Sheng asked himself.
[I can help you deliver it to it; from now on, it's up to you.]
"You think I can beat it? You'd be throwing your life away, wouldn't you? Is there any way to help?" Xia Sheng showed no sign of backing down and directly sought help.
[I can't do it... but you're not alone, are you?]
What?
"cousin!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice rang in his ears, drawing Xia Sheng's attention.
Natsuo looked toward the source of the sound and saw Shiina Mahiru and Suoh Yuki running toward him with serious expressions.
"Why are you here?"
"Um... what's going on?" Shiina Mahiru didn't answer Natsuo's question, but instead turned her gaze to the sky, towards the direction of the dragon's head.
"Can you see it too?"
"Yeah, I almost hallucinated."
"Cousin, what is that? It's terrifying!" Suoh Yuki asked fearfully.
"You can see it too?"
"Yeah, the rain suddenly stopped, and when I looked outside, there was just that big head. I was startled," Suoh Yuki replied, patting her chest with lingering fear.
"Can't the others see it?" Shiina Mahiru asked.
As she walked along, she noticed the behavior of the pedestrians; not one of them looked up at the sky.
"Yes, it seems only we can see it."
"So what exactly is it?"
"Intruder." Xia Sheng spoke concisely.
"An intruder, huh... well, that means we have to deal with it." Shiina Mahiru laughed.
She felt no fear of the dragon's head, only a sense of responsibility and determination as a member of the savior team.
Because Xia Sheng needs to be there.
She was fearless as long as she was with Xia Sheng.
"Yeah, we just need to solve it." Seeing Shiina Mahiru's calm smile, Natsuo was infected and smiled along with her.
Yeah, there's nothing to be afraid of.
With Shiina Mahiru there, with everyone else there, he wasn't alone, so he had the courage and confidence to give it his all.
At worst, we'll live and die together.
If he could die with them, Xia Sheng would have no regrets.
"But how do we solve it?" Suoh Yuki couldn't help but ask.
"It's simple, we just need to go find it." Xia Sheng smiled slightly.
"Should I actively seek it out? Should I go with it?"
"You should stay here, we'll go."
"Me... just my cousin and Mahiru-nee? What about Yukino-nee and the others?" Suoh Yuki wanted to object, but knowing that she would only be a burden if she went, she changed her mind and asked.
"They...will come together."
Natsumi took Shiina Mahiru's hand, their fingers intertwined, and then communicated with Sleeve in her mind.
[Take us there!]
He won't act alone anymore; they have long been capable of fighting alongside him.
Working together increases our chances of winning.
[good.]
As soon as He finished speaking, Natsuo and Shiina Mahiru's bodies floated up, and incredibly, no one around them noticed what was happening.
They seemed to have vanished into thin air.
"Cousin?! Cousin?!" Suoh Yuki's exclamation suddenly rang out.
Xia Sheng looked over and saw that she had also floated up and was flying towards the sky and towards the dragon's head with them.
"How could that be!"
His eyes widened in disbelief.
[Why bring Yuki along? She doesn't have any power!]
Xia Sheng anxiously questioned Him in his heart, but He did not respond at all, as if He had disappeared again.
The three of them continued to rise into the air, approaching the dragon's head, and then passed through that thin membrane—the world barrier.
Their vision flickered, causing Xia Sheng and the others to involuntarily close their eyes.
In just a moment, Xia Sheng felt grounded. He opened his eyes, and the scenery around him was different.
This place, like a hemisphere, resembles a subspace, surrounded by a mysterious purple semicircle, and the space is vast.
It has a solid surface, but it's like a floor formed by energy, and it's also opaque.
"Where... is this place?" Shiina Mahiru asked, looking around.
"The place to fight the invaders to the death," Xia Sheng replied.
"Let's fight to the death!"
"Yuki, wait a minute... Yuki?" Natsuo searched for Suoh Yuki's figure, but couldn't find her.
"Cousin, I'm here!"
The voice came from behind him. Xia Sheng looked over and saw that she was actually outside the barrier.
What's going on?
Just as Natsuo was pondering this, many more figures appeared around Suoh Yuki, all of whom were acquaintances of his.
The Nakano quintuplets, Hirasawa Yui and her friends, and Shinomiya Kaguya, Sakurajima Mai, and Fujiwara Chika.
They are all outside the barrier and cannot enter.
At the same time, three figures appeared beside him.
Yukino Yukinoshita, Yui Yuigahama, and Ritsu Tainaka.
Everyone has gathered here.
The contrast between the two situations inside and outside made Xia Sheng breathe a sigh of relief; he hadn't sent Suoh Yuki and the others to their deaths.
Outside the barrier, they should be safe; they're like spectators, unable to participate directly, but still considered part of the group.
Witness their battle and stand by them to the end.

Suddenly, a dragon's roar resounded throughout subspace.
