Cave Refuge

As fierce ghosts entered the giant mech one after another and carefully searched it from top to bottom, Dong Tianyu ascertained that, just like the giant robots in EVA, it only had one cockpit located at the neck.

So when he heard Peter's question at this time, Dong Tianyu very readily admitted, "That's right."

Hearing Dong Tianyu's unhesitant reply, Peter didn't even consider the possibility that the other party might be lying to deceive him and simply took Dong Tianyu's words at face value.

After all, for him who had often read China's novels before the disaster, even if Dong Tianyu didn't spell out the means he was using to control the situation, Peter could still come up with more than ten different methods in his mind.

Before Peter could figure out how to gain Dong Tianyu's trust, suddenly a colossal figure burst into Dong Tianyu's Divine Sense range from the sky.

As Dong Tianyu was on full alert for the giant newcomer, Peter, inside the cockpit, showed a look of joy on his face.

The Giant God Soldier, whose wingspan far exceeded a hundred meters, had just approached, stirring up a fierce gale. The vehicle, which could be used as a transport for the Giant God Soldier, was in itself huge. Standing in front of it, Dong Tianyu was not even as big as the sharp tip of its claws.

Seeing his teammate arriving, Peter immediately reported the situation here, but his teammate, who didn't understand China's culture, didn't believe what Peter was saying. After all, for him, those stories of gods and demons were never believable.

However, from Peter's words, he could sense that Peter seemed to be under Dong Tianyu's threat. Whether Dong Tianyu had actually inflicted some harm on Peter, or if Peter was simply being intimidated by Dong Tianyu, in his view, as long as Dong Tianyu was dealt with now, the problem should be resolved.

So after approaching, instead of following the original plan to catch Peter's Giant God Soldier and take it away, he charged directly towards Dong Tianyu's location.

Although he also saw that Dong Tianyu could simply stand in the sky by stepping on a Flying Sword, indicating that Dong Tianyu must possess superpowers, compared to Dong Tianyu's tiny body, he felt that the Giant God Soldier he was piloting wouldn't even need to hit Dong Tianyu directly—just passing by would create enough wind pressure to trouble him.

As the massive object barreled straight toward him, Dong Tianyu instantly grasped the other party's malicious intent; however, for Dong Tianyu, what seemed like a swift speed to the opponent was nothing but a crawl compared to Sword Flight.

The wind pressure caused by the opponent's advancement was not even as damaging to the Spiritual Power Shield that surrounded him during rapid Sword Flight as the wind resistance encountered at high speeds.

So, the moment before the opponent could get close to him, the Flying Sword instantly ascended, and then the banners of the Hundred Ghosts Banner behind Dong Tianyu fluttered wildly, allowing a dozen fierce ghosts to enter the Giant God Soldier that was attacking him during the moment of their passing.

Peter's teammate, piloting the Giant God Soldier, immediately ascended sharply the moment it approached the water surface, creating a large pit in the water with the wind pressure from his downward dive.

At this time, Peter's teammate, feeling very smug, contacted Peter, "How could you be threatened by that kid? Look, I managed to deal with him simply with one sprint."

While he was proudly boasting about his victory to Peter, he suddenly heard Peter's extremely angry voice on the other end, "Shut up, Jack! Who gave you the initiative? Didn't I tell you that he was very powerful? Why did you attack him on your own?

It's over, all is lost.

Why didn't you heed my warning? Didn't we say during training that we have to absolutely trust our teammates in battle? You..."

Before Peter could finish, Jack interrupted impatiently, "Why are you so angry? Didn't I just... just..."

"Peter, did we encounter a ghost? I'm sure Eagle King hit him just now, so why is he still standing there unharmed? Could he be just an illusion on the water, maybe just a mirage on the surface?"

Hearing Jack's rambling words, Peter sighed somewhat helplessly, "Jack, calm down, calm down. Take a deep breath.

Listen to me, the opponent is a human, not a ghost. He's just a Cultivator. Remember when we chatted and you asked me who was the strongest in the novels from China, whether those strong characters were stronger than our Holy Knights and Mages?

Didn't I tell you that Cultivators from China could achieve immortality and had all sorts of unimaginable methods?

Now we've encountered a Cultivator from those novels because while confronting him just now, I was unknowingly cursed by him, that's why I told you not to act rashly when you came."

"However, since you've already made a move, let's just do it, and finish him off. Now is not the time to hesitate; if we drag this out, you might end up cursed like me, and then we'll just be at his mercy."

Hearing Peter's words, Jack was taken aback and then gradually calmed down. He then hesitantly spoke to Peter, "Okay, it's possible, but Peter, haven't you already been cursed by him? If the two of us take action now and he activates the curse, then you could... "
