Doomsday Roulette

Chapter 2408: One Against Five 👊

Published: February 13, 2025

Tang Tian shook the short rod in his hand, the peculiar and strange weapon emitted a crackling sound.

He knew he had been tricked.

In terms of top-tier powerhouses, even with many people coming from Cloud Summit, they were still slightly at a disadvantage. It was the Yama Tree itself that transformed into its true form and covered two opponents, allowing the others to have one-on-one opportunities.

No, strictly speaking, it wasn’t one-on-one, but one-on-two, as the beastman generals all had battle beasts.

Additionally, top-tier battles required a certain amount of space. The rapid retreat of ordinary soldiers was also due to this reason. So when the battle began, dozens of top existences from both sides quickly dispersed throughout the city, energy fluctuations rising and falling.

It was in this context that Tang Tian chased his opponent to this location.

The terrain wasn’t special, but the position was; it was a corner of Zhengguo City.

Previously, Tang Tian thought his opponent didn’t want to confront him head-on, or rather, they wanted to find a place free from interference.

But now, he suddenly realized that once two top existences clashed, the surrounding powerhouses would quickly leave. There were no special requirements for the terrain, and there was no need to specifically look for a battlefield with certain characteristics.

But now leaving? Tang Tian glanced at his opponent's battle beast and knew there was no chance.

Tang Tian didn’t know where to run… everyone was in battle.

“You have dedicated medical personnel. Stay away from him; otherwise, I will kill you.” The beastman general spoke plainly.

After these days of battle, the beastmen had gained a considerable understanding of these invaders.

“Confidence is good, but overconfidence can be detrimental.”

The sound emitted from the short rod in Tang Tian's hand suddenly grew louder, an invisible energy rippling around.

The beastman general paused for a moment, feeling the impact of this sound on him.

Since he had launched an attack, Tang Tian didn’t intend to stop. Dark stripes appeared on his face, and a series of beast heads began to emerge from the short rod, shrouded in white mist.

As soon as these beast heads appeared, they flew toward the beastman, each opening its mouth to roar, the sound sharp and piercing.

With them came Tang Tian, holding the short rod in one hand, while the other seemed to swell, the fist becoming extraordinarily large.

He didn’t attack with the short rod but swung his fist instead. Although the fist was already quite large, when he swung it at that moment, it seemed to grow even more, like a solid stone pillar.

Tang Tian’s target was not the beastman general himself but the battle beast.

For humans, unless one had abilities or bloodlines to increase their size, like Copper Kettle or Gao Yi, they would be at a significant disadvantage in physique compared to beastmen, especially when they were riding their battle beasts.

Tang Tian didn’t have that kind of ability; the best approach was to attack the battle beast he could reach.

It should be noted that Tang Tian had always kept a low profile at Cloud Summit. People saw him more as Tang Guo’s brother, Little Tiger’s uncle, or the boss of a defensive team.

Even when he became a nine-star evolver, many thought it was due to his early involvement with Cloud Summit, and due to the significant roles played by Little Tiger and Tang Guo.

In fact, there was indeed some truth to that. Even though Cloud Summit was now very wealthy and the number of ninth-level magic crystals obtained from battles was continually increasing, after all, Ye Zhongming was not around, and no one had the ability to enhance combat power. When they rotated the ninth-level roulette, the success rate was merely one in ten...

Thus, acquiring nine-star evolution potions remained highly challenging. Even if one managed to obtain them, they faced a situation of ‘many wolves, little meat.’ According to standards of strength or contribution, many qualified individuals existed: Young Master Yun, Xiaoli, Sister Rong, Lu Yi, Ayang, Xiao Peng, and others were all on the same level as Tang Tian. There were even Galan Mina and the core members from the fringe, Shasha and Bai Feng.
