Chapter 228: A New Monster! The Secret Weapon from the Master

When Chen Ye returned safely to school with Tang Zichen, it was already the next morning.

After a night of brewing, news of what he had done in the Western world had already spread to Xia Nation.

Immediately!

"Azure Dragon" once again dominated the trending charts.

Even though the hype from yesterday hadn't died down, today it swept across the entire trending list again!

For the past two days, no other news could rise—it was completely overshadowed.

"Holy crap, I just woke up, and so much has happened?"

"Azure Dragon can actually speak? In Mandarin?"

"And he even knows how to use physical attacks to punish rogue media outlets for retaliation?"

"He didn't even harm civilians much!"

"This behavior seems like a deliberate warning—a show of force to deter others. This Azure Dragon must have incredibly high intelligence, comparable to humans."

"I suspect there's a human soul inside this body…"

"As a legendary creature, it's not surprising for the Azure Dragon to be this intelligent. But speaking Mandarin? That, I didn't expect at all."

"Hahaha! I've been fed up with those Western media outlets for ages. Well done, Azure Dragon!"

What Chen Ye had done in America had been captured by countless citizens and uploaded to the internet.

Now, there were various related videos circulating online.

Compared to the three angles of footage from last time, this time there were far more videos, and they were much clearer.

Last time, the military footage kept a safe distance from Chen Ye, and despite professional equipment, the quality wasn't perfect.

This time, bold netizens seemed eager to stand right in front of him to record!

The videos not only dominated domestic trends but also went viral internationally.

Most astonishingly, in regions with strong religious influence, people stayed up all night printing portraits of Chen Ye, hanging them up for worship, and praying for the dragon's blessing.

For the moment, without statues, portraits would suffice.

Statues of the dragon were already being urgently sculpted by masters.

At this moment, Chen Ye was catching up on sleep in his dormitory.

He was unaware that he had gained a massive group of followers, a number that was still growing rapidly.

Last night, he had taken Tang Zichen on a tour of nearly half the planet, spending more than ten hours in total without sleeping. The exertion from several powerful attacks had drained him significantly.

Now lying on the bed, Chen Ye quickly fell asleep.

As for the Martial God who had tried to block him?

A single "Dragon Tail Sweep" had sent the opponent flying.

The gap between their abilities was simply too vast—there was no contest.

However, Chen Ye was sure of one thing: the opponent's physical resilience was impressive and had certainly survived.

A month passed in the blink of an eye.

Although discussions about the Azure Dragon had dwindled online, the fear and unease that once permeated the internet had significantly diminished.

Clearly, the presence of the Azure Dragon as a protector had boosted humanity's confidence and optimism about the future.

Qin Muyin's goal had been achieved.

During this month, Chen Ye returned to his peaceful life.

Today, Chen Ye received a package.

Inside the box were three mini noise emitters he had ordered a month ago.

Despite being palm-sized, each device could produce an astonishing decibel level, loud enough to be extremely jarring.

Naturally, Chen Ye had ordered these for use in Secret Realm No. 6.

He took one out, turned it on, and pressed the sound activation button.

"Zzzz—"

A sharp, piercing noise rang out, like an electric current slicing through the air, instantly penetrating Chen Ye's ears.

Even with his enhanced hearing, Chen Ye felt uncomfortable.

He quickly turned off the device and nodded in satisfaction.

"The manufacturer claimed it could instantly emit 140 decibels of noise. They weren't exaggerating!"

Before purchasing the device, Chen Ye had done his research.

Decibels are the unit of noise, and every increase of 10 decibels corresponds to a tenfold increase in intensity.

Normal human ears can withstand a maximum noise level of 150 decibels.

At 160 decibels, the noise can instantly rupture eardrums.

The noise emitted by this mini device was enough to make Chen Ye feel uncomfortable, so 140 decibels was likely accurate.

Next, Chen Ye checked the time and used his phone to summon Zhao Zheng and Cao Yu to the school's sports field.

A short while later, Zhao Zheng and Cao Yu arrived on time.

"Old Chen, why did you call us out all of a sudden?" Cao Yu asked.

Instead of answering, Chen Ye asked, "This time when you enter Secret Realm No. 6, you're teaming up with Ren Qianqian and Shao Wenhui, right?"

The two nodded.

Chen Ye handed them each a box.

"One for each of you. Instructions and chargers are included. Make sure to bring these to the Secret Realm."

"Oh! Old Chen, are you giving us gifts? What's in here that's so mysterious?"

Unable to contain his curiosity, Cao Yu immediately opened the box.

Seeing the mini noise emitter inside, he was stunned.

"This is… a speaker? Old Chen, why are you giving us this?"

"I already told you—bring it to the Secret Realm," Chen Ye replied.

Bringing a speaker to the Secret Realm?

Both of them looked confused.

Zhao Zheng asked, "Senior Brother, why would we bring this to the Secret Realm? Secret Realm No. 6 has strict weight limits. Not only does it limit our strength, but even the items we carry can't exceed five kilograms. We don't even have enough weight allowance for weapons…"

Cao Yu nodded in agreement.

"Yeah! Can this thing even help us kill monsters?"

What sounded like a joke was met with a serious nod from Chen Ye.

"Yes! It can help you kill monsters."

Before they could ask further, Chen Ye explained, "Teacher Liu mentioned that the monsters in Secret Realm No. 6 have exceptionally sensitive hearing and react to even the slightest noise. Over the past month, I've studied the monsters of Secret Realm No. 6 extensively and came up with a bold theory!"

"If these monsters are so sensitive to sound, what about loud noise? Could it harm them?"

"Typically, the more sensitive an animal's hearing is, the more it fears loud noises. Of course, this doesn't apply to those like us with enhanced mental attributes. That's why I think my theory might just work."

"This mini speaker can emit sound for several hours on a full charge, and it weighs less than half a kilogram. Bringing it along won't significantly impact your plans. If it works and helps you kill monsters, it'll be a big win, right?"

In truth, Chen Ye had long recognized what the monsters in Secret Realm No. 6 were.

They were identical to the creatures from the Earth movie A Quiet Place!

The monsters in A Quiet Place were not only incredibly fast and strong but also nearly invulnerable, with carapaces that even high-caliber firearms couldn't penetrate.

In the movie, these creatures had devastated human society, reducing humanity to a post-apocalyptic state where survivors lived in constant fear, unable to make a sound.

These monsters were immensely powerful, with one critical weakness discovered by the protagonist's family:

They were extremely vulnerable to high-decibel noise.

When exposed to loud noise, their bodies would freeze, exposing their weak points.

"According to Teacher Liu, we only need to survive ten hours in Secret Realm No. 6. If you use the speakers sparingly, the battery will last long enough."

After hearing Chen Ye's explanation, Zhao Zheng and Cao Yu were stunned.

Cao Yu couldn't help but say, "Old Chen, weren't you paying attention in class? Teacher Liu said someone had tried using noise attacks before, but they didn't work!"

"That's because they used the wrong kind of noise, and it wasn't piercing enough!" Chen Ye replied confidently.

Chen Ye said lightly, "The sound emitters I gave you are custom-designed noise devices capable of emitting sharp sounds up to 150 decibels. Even humans find such noises unbearable. My intuition tells me that it's very likely to work."

Intuition? What nonsense.

It was purely because he knew the plot!

"If you're saying so, I'll trust you this time. Worst case, I'll just switch to a lighter weapon," Cao Yu said with a grin.

Zhao Zheng also nodded. "I trust Senior Brother's intuition!"

Hearing this, Chen Ye smiled.

He then gave the two detailed instructions on how to use the noise emitters. With everything settled, the three parted ways.

Shortly after returning to his dormitory, Chen Ye's phone rang.

It was a call from the security office, informing him that he had received another package.

Chen Ye was puzzled.

He distinctly remembered only ordering the noise emitters recently. Since they had already arrived, what could this new package be?

Curious, he went to the security office to collect the package and brought it back to his dormitory.

The package was small, suggesting that its contents were similarly compact.

Upon opening it, a card slipped out.

Chen Ye picked up the card and read the neatly handwritten text:

"Chen Ye, this is a portable outfit made using advanced nano-materials, designed specifically for your physique by Academician Lu from the Academy of Sciences. Rest assured, your identity remains confidential. I personally oversaw the design of its color, patterns, and appearance. Even Academician Lu wouldn't recognize it as yours if he saw it in use."

The handwriting was elegant and meticulous, clearly written by hand.

A woman's hand.

Although the card wasn't signed, Chen Ye immediately knew it was from Qin Muyin.

The only people aware of his Azure Dragon transformation were his father, Qin Muyin, and Tang Zichen.

It definitely wasn't his father; the elder Chen wouldn't know about the inconvenience caused by his transformations, and his handwriting wasn't this delicate.

It couldn't be Tang Zichen either—she would've handed it over directly rather than sending it by courier.

Only Qin Muyin had the connections to involve Academician Lu.

After reading the card, Chen Ye hesitated briefly before opening the box.

Inside was a belt with a button on the front.

Curious, Chen Ye pressed the button.

Immediately!

With a soft "poof," a piece of fabric made of some unknown material popped out.

Upon contact with air, the fabric quickly expanded, transforming into a flexible bodysuit.

The suit was black, with a red flame emblem on the chest, and looked quite stylish.

Chen Ye's eyes lit up at the sight of it.

But soon, his expression turned a bit awkward.

It was evident that Qin Muyin had designed this suit to solve the issue of him being clothesless after transforming into the Azure Dragon.

Although Chen Ye could undress before transforming and re-dress afterward, it wasn't exactly convenient.

What if his clothes were stolen or carried off by an animal while he was transformed?

Carrying his clothes into battle wasn't an option either.

With this nano-suit, things would be much easier.

In his human form, it could be worn as a belt. In his Azure Dragon form, it could be tucked around his hind claws. After a battle, a single button press would produce a complete outfit.

Stowing the suit was equally simple.

All he needed to do was align the suit's collar with the belt's interface and press the button. The suit would automatically retract into the belt.

"Wow! Black tech!" Chen Ye couldn't help but exclaim.

He remembered watching a Flash movie before crossing over, where the superhero's suit could be stored in a tiny ring—a concept he'd found exaggerated.

But this belt was far more realistic.

The belt was also elastic, indicating a spacious interior capable of easily storing the nano-suit.

This gift perfectly matched Chen Ye's needs.

After some thought, Chen Ye decided to keep it.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

Today was the day the Secret Realm would open!

Inside a secret chamber, Cao Yu and Ren Qianqian had already arrived early to prepare for the upcoming journey.

"Qianqian, once we're inside the Secret Realm, if you see a signal flare in the sky, that means Old Chen is summoning us," Cao Yu said. "But Old Chen also mentioned that if the distance is too far, we shouldn't bother heading over. The time inside is limited, and we can't waste it traveling—killing monsters is the priority!"

Ren Qianqian nodded, tightly gripping her weapon. She appeared tense.

Teacher Liu had warned them that the monsters in this Secret Realm were exceptionally strong.

To make matters worse, everyone's abilities would be heavily suppressed.

This was shaping up to be the most dangerous Secret Realm they had faced so far.

And future Secret Realms would only grow more difficult.

It was no wonder so many people couldn't make it past even the first ten Secret Realms...

At this moment, Ren Qianqian noticed Cao Yu holding a noise emitter in his hand, seemingly preparing to bring it into the Secret Realm.

She couldn't help but ask, "You're bringing that speaker into the Secret Realm? Are you planning to listen to music in there?"

"I'm not that bored!" Cao Yu laughed. "This is Old Chen's secret weapon! Just wait and see!"

Ren Qianqian rolled her eyes and didn't press further. "This Secret Realm is extremely dangerous. Our abilities will be suppressed to near-human levels. If we're surrounded by monsters, I won't be able to save you. Be careful."

"Don't worry! I know what I'm doing."

As soon as he finished speaking, the plum blossom marks on their arms began to heat up simultaneously.

"It's starting!"

Cao Yu grabbed Ren Qianqian's hand. "My hands are full, so you press it!"

Indeed, Cao Yu was holding both a noise emitter and a weapon.

Ren Qianqian shot him a glare before pressing her mark with her free hand.

The next moment, both of them disappeared from the chamber and entered the Secret Realm.

This world was eerily silent.

So silent that not even the chirping of insects or the calls of birds could be heard.

Such unnatural quietness was deeply unsettling...
