I, The Dragon Overlord - Chapter 440
Chapter 440 – Hawaiian Calamity
The sky turned dark and cloudy at some point, creating a depressing and dark vibe on the beaches of Hawaii.
On the beach, people shouted in horror. The tanners lying on mats hurriedly put on their clothes and bolted for the inland. Umbrellas, loungewear, bottles, snacks, and various kinds of trash lay strewn over the sands in the chaos
H-boy saw the Hollywood star protect his family. Under the bodyguards’ protection, they went away with the crowd. The ground on the beach shook violently. Many people ran causing a stampede and filling the beach with moans of pain and panicked cries.
What was more frightening was the tsunami that was forming from the earthquake. In the distance, a ten-meter-high wave was formed. It was easy to imagine how terrifying it would be once it hit the shore. Nine out of ten of the people who could not run away from the beach would definitely be brought into the sea by the huge wave and suffocate people’s lives.
Even the world’s best swimmer would not necessarily be able to survive.
“BOOOM—”
Suddenly, a loud booming sound came from behind, startling H-boy. He hurriedly looked back to see the mountain peak on Oahu was collapsing. It was a natural disaster that spread as a landslide occurred.
“Young master H, run!!!”
“Jesus Christ, what’s wrong with Hawaii? It’s like the end of the world.”
“Young master H, I was wrong. I should not have jinxed it by saying that something big is going to happen to Hawaii today. You should run quickly.”
“The one above should shut up!”
“This is really a volcanic eruption, young master H, don’t stand still.”
“……”
The pop-ups from the stream surged. The popularity of the stream surged. It was a live volcanic eruption, an earthquake, and a tsunami all in one, which was extremely rare.
But at this time, H-boy was completely frozen in place. He felt his hands and feet numb, and his head blanked out. In the past, he was happy that his popularity increased, but now, he was not happy at all, and his body was overcome with fear and chills.
He was just a rich second generation and grew up with a golden spoon. When had he ever encountered such a desperate situation? Even though supernatural events were frequent, he only saw them through the television and videos. He never had any personal experience.
“Come with me, Li-kun!”
The Japanese man named Ninomiya Sho grabbed H-boy’s shoulder with an anxious face, causing him to finally snap back to his senses. Under the pulling and dragging of the other party, H-boy gradually felt vitality in his arms and legs. His brain also became much clearer and quickly followed the masses away.
The place was too dangerous. If they waited for the tsunami, they would definitely add to the number of missing people.
“Rumble—”
Another earth-shattering sound made the fleeing crowd stop for a moment, but the next moment, the crowd ran even faster.
The active volcano on Oahu had finally erupted. Even from a distance, hot burning magma could be seen spewing out, causing dust and smoke to spread all over the sky. The whole island of Oahu was shrouded, causing the daylight scenery to become a nightmare with the lava as the only light.
The lava was ejected into the sky and flew down like a meteor shower. The burning hot balls fell to the ground and let out odorous smoke. The people on the coast ran desperately under the rain of fire.
Although this rain of fire was small, anyone that would be hit would receive serious burns if they did not die from it.
Hawaii was an island that was prone to earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, so the buildings were built with resisting those in mind. This time, even if there was no warning, the buildings of the city did not receive too much damage.
When the city was first established, the city builders anticipated earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic eruptions, as a result, the city’s buildings were built away from the beach, and this method of city planning saved many lives.
When H-boy and Ninomiya reached their hotel, the two of them finally sat down on the ground in relief. There were people crying in the lobby of the building and calling their loved ones. 6444
As he was escaping, H-boy forgot to close his live broadcast, as a result, the escape had been recorded. The desperate and nervous escape had brought even more excitement than Hollywood movies. The video was also on fire among the streams of B-station.
“Thank you, Ninomiya-kun. I was really scared to death just now…”
H-boy patted his chest. Although he could recover from the situation a moment ago, being able to come to his senses and avoid danger earlier was thanks to Ninomiya-kun.
Ninomiya Sho’s face was calmer than H-boy’s. Hearing his gratitude, he smiled and carelessly said, “We are friends. I still want to continue discussing idols with you Li-kun. It’s rare to find a fellow member who pushes Hori-san with me.”
Seeing Ninomiy’s big smile, H-boy was inexplicably touched.
“International friends, this is!”
“Young master H should just marry. This disaster is part of your fate. Having the same hobby, pushing the same idol, living in the same house, and being dragged together into the same crisis. This is simply a novel!”
“Ah, my corrupt girl’s heart is already sprouting.”
“This Japanese pretty boy looks clear-eyed, it’s time for you to show the strength of our Chinese domineering president.”
“……”
Seeing that H-boy was no longer in danger, for the time being, the netizens began teasing again.
“Aren’t you… scared?”
H-boy hesitated and asked. He could see that the teenager named Ninomiya Sho was really calm. He wasn’t pretending as his expression was too distinct from the forced calm expressions of the people around him.
The Japanese friend calmly said, “I was once afraid before, but after encountering that kind of fear, I can now face things calmly. Li-kun, you know about the Tokyo supernatural incident, right? To be honest, I was one of the people caught by the deep ones and almost got sacrificed in Shibuya.”
Listening to Ninomiya’s words, H-boy inwardly cursed himself. This Japanese brother could be considered fortunate and unfortunate. He had actually encountered this kind of life-threatening event twice, but no danger had come to him.
For a moment, H-boy could not say anything.
“This Japanese masochist is actually a werewolf.”
Ninomiya Sho’s somewhat strange English was translated by netizens, and the entire chat was filled with the same words.
“Everyone, look, the sea has turned into lava!!”
At that moment, there were terrified shouts from the hotel lobby. After the commotion, many people went to the side of the lobby to gaze at the ocean in the distance.
Sure enough, the azure sea was being dyed with fluorescent light. It was like a volcano brewing underneath. An unknown sense of fear began to appear in the hearts of the people as if there was some terrible monster awakening underneath the sea.

The commander of the US Pacific Seventh Fleet stared at the data on the instrument with an ugly face. He hissed and yelled, “Can someone explain to me what the hell is going on?!”
