Over in Mopan Bay, an abandoned riverside villa stood alone by the river. Before it was the rushing waters of the Wei River and behind it a lush forest.
A series of bestial roars rang out from the mountains and the forests as the grass and trees shook and a large number of Direbeasts poured out of it and surrounded the villa by the river!
Inside the villa.
“Damn it, they’re here again!”
The members of Vulcan Arcana Combine looked at the Direbeasts outside through the window, each with a grim face as they felt anxious and fatigue amidst their fury. They could no longer remember what wave of Direbeast attack this was.
Although they were able to repel every Direbeast onslaught thus far, after a long period of combat, their physical strength and Gene Arcana had been extremely exhausted, and they were almost at breaking point.
Seeing the Direbeasts charged in once again, all of the team members looked at Captain Yang Gan. “Captain Yang, what should we do? Should we return that thing back?”
Yang Gan’s expression kept changing as he went from hesitating to struggling to finally having a look of determination. “Continue to resist! If all fails, then we’ll hand it over!”
“Yes, Captain!”
All of the members responded. They too were conflicted. Before them were Direbeasts that might kill them, and they wanted to surrender that item in exchange for their lives.
However, they were also reluctant to let it go. It was a treasure worth tens of billions after all!
Tens of billions!
Who would willingly hand it over?
“Raaaaaaawrrrr!”
Following a violent roar, a swarm of Direbeasts rushed out from the forest and charged at the riverside house.
The Direbeasts…
Had attacked once again.
“Die!”
“Kill these b*stards!”
“Go to hell!”
A fierce battle broke out!
The Direbeasts kept charging forward, seemingly unafraid of death as if they wanted to swallow the riverside house whole.
The Huoshen team resisted desperately and were throwing out various Arcanas like they were free.
“Roar!!!”
Crack!!
Dush!
The Direbeasts were killed one after another, and the pungent smell of blood filled the air.
Although the Direbeasts were numerous, they were mostly Class 1 to Class 4 Direbeasts, and the Vulcan team could hold them back, albeit barely.
Yet, when a Direbeast joined the fray, the entire situation drastically changed.
Boom! Boom!
A giant ape as tall as a three-story building emerged from the forest.
The hair all over its body consisted of steel needles standing upright with bulging muscles looking like they were cast out of metal, and left no illusions about the terrifying destructive power within it.
Looking at the suddenly appearing giant ape-like Direbeast, the faces of the Vulcan team members changed wildly, and all of them fell into despair.
“A Class 5 Direbeast, Titan Tempest Ape!”
“A Titan Tempest Ape! It’s the Titan Tempest Ape!”
“It’s over! It’s all over now!”
“Captain! Hand that thing over quickly, or we’ll all be dead!”
“Captain, throw that thing out!”
Yang Gan was horrified, and his voice was trembling. “Isn’t it a little too late to throw it out now? I’m afraid it won’t let us off even after it takes that thing away!”
“How will we know if we don’t even try?”
“Captain, don’t hesitate anymore! If that Titan Tempest Ape charges over, we’ll definitely be dead! Toss that damn thing out!”
“All right, all right!”
Although he was extremely reluctant to let it go, his life was now at stake, and whether he was reluctant or not, the Titan Tempest Ape was not something they could fight against.
Yang Gan took out a backpack from the dimensional pockets, and then took out an “iron lump” the size of a watermelon… It was covered with strange patterns, and exuding a powerful vitality from within.
“Oh! What a pity!”
Looking at this iron lump, Yang Gan sighed as he resisted the pain and forcefully threw it away.
The iron lump flew a beautiful parabolic arc and flew far, far away, before finally landing not too far away from the Titan Tempest Ape.
The amazing this was that, after flying so far and hitting the ground so hard, the iron lump did not break, but landed perfectly intact.
It had to be said that that iron lump sure was hard, just like a real iron lump.
“Raaaawrrrr!!!
The Titan Tempest Ape was still beating its chest and venting its anger, but when it saw that the iron lump suddenly fell from the sky, it stopped.
It picked up the iron lump from the ground and sniffed it hard. A flash of joy appeared in its eyes that were bigger than apples as it looked at the riverside villa.
At this moment, Yang Gan and the others inside the villa were looking at the Titan Tempest Ape with anxiety and panic in their eyes.
“Leave!”
“Hurry up and leave!”
“We’ve already given your things back! Stop pestering us!”
The Vulcan team prayed and shouted frantically. They were very fearful, against an extremely violent and ferocious Class 5 Direbeast like the Titan Tempest Ape, they stood no chance at all!
Sadly, their prayers fell on deaf ears, and instead of leaving, the Titan Tempest Ape rushed toward them.
Baaaaam!!
Baaaaaam!!
The ground trembling rhythmically as if a heavy tank was rolling over it.
“It’s… coming!”
“Damn it! It already had wanted it wanted, and it still doesn’t want to let us go! Damn it all!”
Yang Gan was trembling, and his face turned blue. “Retreat! Retreat to the basement!”
“Yes, Captain!”
The Vulcan team members dared not tarry as they all fled toward the basement one after another.
The Titan Tempest Ape obviously did not intend to let them go, and waiting there meant certain death. Only by escaping to the basement that they may have a chance to escape!
Baaaaam!!
The Titan Tempest Ape was clearly in a foul mood. It strode over to the riverside villa and raised its massive fist as it pounded the villa’s wall.
Baaaam!!
A terrifying force exploded, and the riverside villa that had been standing upright for more than 30 years was smashed into pieces.
Stones splintered and cement shattered.
A couple of punches later, the riverside villa was completely razed to the ground with only twisted metal and broken cement blocks remained to tell the tale of what happened earlier.
“Raaawrrr!!!
The Titan Tempest Ape who was done venting beat its own chest as it let out a hearty roar. The rolling sound waves traveled far and wide.
After that, the Titan Tempest Ape took a big step and was about to leave. Unexpectedly, at the same moment, a stream of light flashed across the sky, and finally stopped over the skies above the riverside villa.
“Roar!!!”
The Titan Tempest Ape roared and saw a maglev motorcycle stopping not too far away. On it was a human.
There was still a human!
The Titan Tempest Ape grew furious as it turned and rushed toward the maglev motorcycle with murderous intentions.
“A Class 5, Titan Tempest Ape!”
Ling Jiu’s expression changed and immediately put away the maglev motorcycle before releasing all 50 square meters of osmium soil as he used the Rock Giant technique.
In a blink of an eye, Ling Jiu had become a thirty-meter tall behemoth.
Thirty meters!
About ten stories high!
In contrast, the ten-meter-tall Titan Tempest Ape looked like a little brother, but the ape was not intimidated as it raised its right fist and smashed hard.
Baaaam!!
A violent power exploded, and the osmium giant was smashed and staggered before falling onto the ground as a large quantity of osmium soil fell off it.
“Hiss…”
Feeling the terrifying shock on his body, Ling Jiu could not help but gasp. This sure lived up to its name as a Class 5 Direbeast, the Titan Tempest Ape.
Even though his body was covered in osmium Soil, but the power of the Titan Tempest Ape was far too great, and the shock of its attack had Ling Jiu’s boil blood.
“Tungsten Form!”
