75: The Sun God 14

The Sun God rotated his palm and made a lifting motion.

Particles of light scattered into the sky like billowing golden dust. In an instant, a multitude of pinpricks pierced the heavy black bank of clouds, like a sieve dotted through with sunlight. Then the fog was shredded apart by golden rays. Light spread out across the formerly darkness-shrouded city of New York.

"New York... Is the sun coming out?" Someone in the distance looked up and saw the darkness that covered the city was finally gone.

Thousands of fine beams of light streamed down from the sky, then gradually expanded. With a power that was gentle yet inexorably cruel the beams tore apart every ghoul that remained in the streets.

Numerous investigators were on assignment in New York. Some were transporting homeless people, while others were guarding abandoned cats and dogs, crouching behind corners and halting ghoul attacks with their own bodies. But the moment the light pierced the black fog, none of them could tear their eyes away.

Everyone stared up at a deep gash in the cloud covering of the sky, made by an immense pillar of light. The golden brilliance that streamed from the sky was like a miracle. When they saw it, they were filled with shock, unable to speak.

The Dragon Group members who were traversing the city on the shoulders of skyscrapers immediately dropped down and returned to the empty streets.

Si Yan controlled the wind and descended to the ground.

"Where's Zong Yan?" He landed firmly on the asphalt. After asking the question he went over to the only Chinese present, Wang KeMing.

Wang KeMing was startled. He recognized Si Yan immediately. "Uh..."

The ninth Monarch had been a popular topic of discussion before the tenth Monarch was crowned. After the announcement of the tenth Monarch, sadly, Si Yan lost the limelight.

However, there were now three Monarchs in China alone. Every Chinese student studying at MU was able to stand tall. How was it possible for one of them not to recognize a Monarch from their own country?

The problem was that Wang KeMing couldn't easily talk about what Zong Yan was doing right now. Wang KeMing regarded himself as Zong Yan's brother. He couldn't just expose his friend's whereabouts.

During summer vacation in London, the three reached an agreement. Zong Yan seemed to have some mysterious powers which were far stronger than Awakening abilities. At the very beginning, Zong Yan revealed his Night Watchman power in order to save Wang KeMing and Edward. Since then, in all of Wang KeMing's classes at MU, he never heard of anything similar. He was worried that if he exposed what Zong Yan was doing, his brother would be captured and examined in a lab like in the movies. It was impossible for him to say anything right now.

But Wang KeMing was a terrible liar, and the person he was standing in front of was a very big deal.

"He... he ran into the zombie tide just like Team Leader Anastasia."

When Wang KeMing stammered, Si Yan immediately knew there was a problem.

So the ninth Monarch stopped asking. He gave Wang KeMing a sharp look with eyes hidden behind his goggles, then turned and left.

He Yuan, who was following closely, arrived just a little later. "Boss, what's up?"

"Prepare for combat. We're going into the pit." Si Yan gave the order in a crisp, clear-cut voice.

Suddenly his fingers pulsed. Flashing arcs of electricity instantly hurtled towards ghouls that were still running around the street.

Their team was close to the intersection when they rushed back to find Wang KeMing, and now they had to return to the pit. Fortunately, the black fog had been dispersed. Daylight gradually returned, and visibility began to improve.
