It was midnight.
Even for Japan, a little dim light could be seen in the east, indicating that the dawn was not far away. However, it was a sleepless night for many people in Japan.
From the Emperor down to the commoners, everyone was guessing what had happened in the sky above Mount Higurashi earlier. The difference between the two lay in the fact that the Emperor instantly held an emergency meeting overnight and ordered his ministers to find out the truth quickly while the civilians could only obtain the information from the internet, social media, news and self-published media.
Japan’s Emperor and many of his ministers gathered together and collected information from all sides. All of the pictures and footage were presented on the huge curtain wall display.
“My lord, this is a satellite picture at the time of the incident. At the time, the sky was full of crimson red clouds. Our investigation showed that there was a heavy scent of blood within a hundred miles radius.”
“My lord, this footage online proves that this person named Alex Rockefeller is from America but there is no information about this person nor his entry details in our country’s border checkpoint.”
A person at the side grunted. “Isn’t this nonsense? How could someone who could cause such a huge ruckus leave us inbound information? Americans are so cunning, how could they not think of this? Oshima-kun, your information is too generic.”
The person who gave the report earlier was angry. “Ichiro Kuryo, how dare you?! You’ve no right to interfere when I’m reporting to the lord! Get out of my sight!”
Ichiro Kuryo said, “I have a copy of the surveillance of Higurashi Shrine here, you can see some footage of that time.”
“Oh? Hurry up and play it.”
Soon, fighting scenes at that time could be seen from the played footage. Unfortunately, it was late at night and the surveillance camera’s angle was not quite right, so they could only confirm that the three people were from America. However, the mountain of white bones and the mostly destroyed shrine were clearly visible. Even a helicopter that the Fairy Doctor had blown up was blamed on Alex and the others.
“Hmph! How dare the Americans commit such a crime in our Japan?! The crime is unforgivable!”
“Justice must be done to the Americans!”
“Make them pay us sky-high compensation!”
While the ministers were seething with anger and the Emperor was roaring, they heard an earth-shattering voice all of a sudden…
Boom!
The office building of the House of Councillors shook violently. Countless glass windows were shattered. The huge screen on the wall flashed twice and went black.
The next second, the entire office building and even the entire area plunged into darkness.
“Ah!”
“Oh gosh!”
“Earthquake!”
In the darkness, countless people shrieked, ran and hid. Immediately afterward, everyone reached out to their cell phones to light up the screen or flashlight. There had been a group of bodyguards closely protecting the Emperor’s safety. Everyone hid in a place where they thought it was safe and communicated anxiously.

At the same time, Mount Fuji was as if it had been bombarded by hundreds of nuclear bombs… No, nuclear bombs would not be powerful either. That huge, perennial snow-covered Mount Fuji seemed to have suddenly lost its support below. The entire mountain jolted and then began to collapse, quickly sinking down.
Meanwhile, Uncle Drake, who was resting in Mount Fuji to recover his injuries, was dumbfounded all of a sudden. He slammed the ground hard and his body sprang up high, suspending in mid-air. He watched the huge Mount Fuji crumble before his eyes, sinking into the ground. Subsequently, it was submerged by the countless seawater or underground water.
The place where favonovel.com was seated previously was gone right away. It became a huge sinkhole and beneath it was cold lake water.
“Dragon Lord, what happened to them?” Uncle Drake was dumbfounded.
Without even thinking about it, favonovel.com knew that the huge change here must be related to Dragon Lord. However, even the enormous Mount Fuji had sunk. Just how big of an explosion had happened down there? He dared not even imagine it. Under such circumstances, could Dragon Lord, Alex and the rest still walk out alive?
