Chapter 545: Chapter 298: The Twelve Zodiac Mecha, The Monster from Beneath the Earth_2
The two were completely shocked.
"Xiao Bai, you... what is this...?"
"Unbreakable Realm, Ninth Star!"
Yan Bo and Leng Xinlan exchanged glances and gave a bitter smile.
Who would have thought that they were the ones who needed protection now?
...
Within the vortex of dark clouds, twelve figures were hidden.
"Dragon Lord, how do you plan to handle your younger generation?"
"There’s no need for Snake Master to worry; I’ll handle them however I see fit."
"True enough, with the Dragon Lord’s many descendants, what’s a loss of two or three?"
"Snake Master, stop with the chatter. Focus on that kid, don’t let him escape."
"Tiger Lord, rest assured. With us here, he won’t get away."
Suddenly, a voice filled with shock and doubt rang out.
"The Beast Cultivation Main City has arrived!"
"Haha, let them come. What can they do? The Mechanical Main City and Beast Power Main City will keep them in check."
...
Meanwhile, outside the Federation Main City, people from the Mechanical Main City and Beast Power Main City intercepted Qin Quan and his group.
"Qin Quan, go back. The current Qin Shou is a Spine-eating Gu. You can’t afford to make grave mistakes over one Spine-eating Gu."
From the Mechanical Main City, the cockpit of a Level 3 Nine-star Mecha delivered the persuasion.
Qin Quan swept his gaze across the personnel from the two main cities, his expression calm.
"Everyone, whether Qin Shou is a Spine-eating Gu will be judged when my father returns. There’s no need to rush to kill Qin Shou here in the Main City, is there?"
The leader of Beast Power Main City shook his head.
"Qin Quan, Principal Qin rarely comes back. No need to bother him about this; you know clearly that, regardless of the truth, Qin Shou won’t escape death."
Qin Quan’s face darkened, then he sneered, "Just like back then?"
Silence fell over the crowd. Back then, that extraordinarily gifted young man met the same fate.
And the dark scars covering Qin Quan’s body were from the time he fought desperately for his friend.
If it hadn’t been for Qin Long’s influence, Qin Quan might have lost his life in the flames of war alongside that young man.
"Qin Quan, since you know, why repeat the same mistakes? You cannot save him."
"Whether I can save him or not, I’ll only know after trying!" Qin Quan’s expression was resolute.
"I don’t want to regret it again!"
These words were spoken to himself.
Within the crowd, the Four Little Saints shouted indignantly, "Whether we can save him or not, we’ll only know after trying!"
"That’s right! The pride of Beast Cultivation Main City is not for others to judge!"
Their expressions became resolute.
"You truly want to start a war? Just for one Qin Shou?"
A slightly angry voice came from the cockpit.
"If it’s war you want, war it is!"
Qin Quan waved his hand vigorously, and the crowd echoed his call. Countless Space Gates opened instantly, and the roars of beasts filled the air.
The Four Little Saints unleashed radiance from their hands, and giant silhouettes flickered at lightning speed.
"Fine! If you want battle, then battle it is!"
The Mechanical Main City and Beast Power Main City refused to back down. A sky full of mechas prepared for battle, radiating all kinds of Talent Energy, coloring the somber skies.
The air thickened with tension; war was imminent.
"Buzz..."
Suddenly, dazzling light flashed in the high skies, descending into the giant silhouettes in an instant.
In that moment, the energy lights in the chest of the giant silhouettes seemed to gain renewed strength, their terrifying aura sweeping across the scene.
Light Energy Converter 49%!
"This is..."
The crowd’s expressions were filled with uncertainty and disbelief.
Then, the Four Little Saints suddenly exclaimed.
"I understand now; these giants are..."
"Hahaha, I get it too; there’s no way this could be mere coincidence!"
"I should’ve figured it out earlier—Knight Armor, Giant Stone Statue—hahaha, so that’s the truth..."
"Considering Brother Qin’s caution, if he wasn’t absolutely sure of victory, he wouldn’t reveal this prematurely. Looks like we’re certain to win this battle!"
Their exclamations of joy left everyone else in the scene utterly confused.
Within the crowd, Bai Ke, Nan Xuewei, and Hu Yiyi seemed to realize something as well.
In their hands, the glow of the giant devices grew increasingly dazzling.
"What... what does this mean?"
Bai Ke smiled bitterly and left without hesitation.
Nan Xuewei pondered silently, recalling Fang Bao’s words to her before his mysterious disappearance.
"Xuewei, no matter what happens, never oppose Qin Shou. That kid, no one can truly see through him..."
On the spot, she put away her giant device and left following Bai Ke.
On the other side, Hu Yiyi stared blankly at the radiance shining in her hand, her expression growing grim.
"Miss Yiyi, what’s wrong?" someone asked curiously.
Hu Yiyi gritted her teeth, "Instruct the Hu Family to retreat!"
"But, why..."
"Shut your mouth and leave immediately!"
"Understood..."
Hu Yiyi stowed away her giant device and turned back to glance at the thick dark clouds over the Federation Main City.
"The sky of Earth is truly about to change."
At that moment, memories of her first meeting with Qin Shou surfaced in her mind.
To become the strongest man on Earth...
It turned out, he wasn’t joking.
...
In the ruins high above, Leng Wanbai stretched out her massive Bone Claw, an unmatched aura sweeping across the land.
Beside Qin Shou, several figures rushed toward him.
"Qin Shou, we’re late!"
The appearances of Yu Shusheng, Lin Xiaomei, and others momentarily startled Qin Shou.
"Principal, you..."
Yu Shusheng’s smile concealed fear as he straightened himself against strong foes.
On one side, Qiao Jianshan and Zuo Dahong were pale, forcing out strained smiles.
"Qin Shou, West City won’t abandon you."
Lin Xiaomei stepped forward, smiling, "Don’t think I’m a burden. If I die here, tough luck for me."
Gao Yao’s legs trembled as he said, "Senior Qin Shou, if I wet my pants later, don’t laugh at me."
Qin Shou shook his head with a wry smile, "You’re making this feel like a farewell to the dead."
"Of course it’s not a farewell to the dead!"
In the high sky, brilliant red light descended to the ground; Long Xia arrived by Qin Shou’s side and patted his shoulder.
"Lao Qin, it’s time to fulfill your dream from that day."
"Dream?"
Qin Shou was taken aback, turning to see Yan Bo and Leng Xinlan walking toward him slowly.
