Chapter 54: Chapter 43 Anger, Logic, New Power!_2

The One-eyed Giant moved.

"The food this time seems not bad," it said slowly.

It climbed down slowly, and while climbing, it stretched out its hand and vigorously slapped the air—

The two knights at the forefront of the protective team didn’t even have time to react and were directly smashed into bloody silhouettes by an invisible force, tightly pasted to the ground.

With his hair and beard flying, the great mage of the team held up a black Demon Wand and shouted,

"Monster, restrain yourself!"

From the tip of the wand emerged a deep red flame that formed into a fiery lizard with bared teeth and claws, and it leapt forward.

The fiery lizard streaked across hundreds of meters, aiming for a bite at the One-eyed Giant.

"Ah..."

The One-eyed Giant drawled, "Fire is my servant as it represents a form of death, and I am the master of death."

It reached out its hand, gently caressing the fiery lizard.

The fiery lizard subdued its aggressiveness, crouching submissively in front of it, without any intention to attack.

Under the giant’s touch, the body of the fiery lizard suddenly grew several times larger, transforming into a monster nearly reaching the giant’s waist, its flames turning black and even sprouting wings.

"Sometimes I eat cooked food as well, so go hunt for me," the One-eyed Giant said softly.

The gigantic winged fiery lizard let out a fierce roar, charged into the sky, and dashed toward the protective team.

"Defensive formation!" the Great Mage commanded.

The lizard opened its mouth, spewing out Death Intense Flame that engulfed the entire team.

In an instant,

Everyone let out shrill screams of agony.

—Completely indefensible!

The flames spread rapidly across the floor, chasing after Wu Xiaode and the little girl.

"Hyah!"

Wu Xiaode yelled, forcefully pulling the reins.

The warhorse immediately jumped onto the wall, racing forward at an angle parallel to the ground.

Thanks to the protective team blocking the giant for a moment,

The cavern was right before them!

Wu Xiaode felt an immense surge of excitement and shouted loudly, "Your Highness, hold on tight, I’m going to jump."

The little girl nodded and clung tightly to his arm.

Suddenly—

A deep red ray arrived in an instant, passing through the little girl’s body before Wu Xiaode.

"Anthony..."

The little girl murmured, her body turning instantly into ash.

Wu Xiaode was stunned.

The flooding death flames engulfed him.

The martial arts dojo.

That room.

"Aaahhhhh!"

"Damn giant—I must find a way to kill you!"

Wu Xiaode suddenly materialized from the Void, letting out an angry and pained roar.

Why.

He had already given up fighting and only wanted to escape with her.

Yet he still failed.

Why was the One-eyed Giant so formidable?

Could anyone really defeat it?

Suddenly a voice rang in Wu Xiaode’s ear:

"Child, don’t be sad. In fact, throughout the endless ages, no one has ever defeated the One-eyed Giant, not even to land a blow on it."

Wu Xiaode paused and turned around.

An old man dressed in a grand mage robe stood not far from him, his gaze filled with wisdom and vicissitudes, quietly watching him.

His body was semi-transparent, with a faint mist swirling around him.

—He was the Great Mage who traveled with the team!

Wu Xiaode couldn’t help but look at the Book of the Dead.

On the Book of the Dead appeared a line of ice-crystal-like text:

"For your brave fighting, the Heroic Spirits dwelling on the Demon Armor have come forth to meet you."

Heroic Spirits?

Wu Xiaode looked towards the elderly figure, only to see one Heroic Spirit after another appear by his side.

These figures were knights, mages, priests, and servants of that little girl.

All were silently watching Wu Xiaode.

"No one can defeat it; it has always been so," said the Great Mage.

"So anyone who enters the Death Demon Cave is faced with a fate of utter despair?" Wu Xiaode stared at him and asked.

The Great Mage said, "In myth, the One-eyed Giant once made such a prophecy—"

"In the endless river of time, any type of being is merely its sustenance, and it is impossible for anyone to surpass it."

"And so it has been, until... one person beat it at its own game."

"Who?"

"You."

Wu Xiaode was stunned.

"It fell for your trick, and you slapped it unexpectedly, isn’t that considered a defeat for it?" The Great Mage said with a smile.

Wu Xiaode retorted with a grimace, "Old man, I don’t need encouragement. Do you have any secret to defeating it?"

The Great Mage said solemnly, "After consulting with the thousands of Heroic Spirits on the Armor, we feel it necessary to tell you something."

"What?"

"The One-eyed Giant has seen all the skills of all creatures."

"What!"

"Yes, it is familiar with our power, making it all too easy for it to deal with us."

"Then it’s completely impossible to fight it." Wu Xiaode sighed.

He had hoped to gather more Heroic Spirits to learn their skills and then confront the giant.

But the giant knows everything—

No matter what he learned, he would be no match for it.

"So we’re of no help."

At this point, the Great Mage walked up to him, and solemnly bowed.

The knights knelt on one knee, raising their swords.

Priests softly spoke their prayers.

A few rogues dressed in night attire also appeared, placing their hands over their hearts, bowing in salute.

"What are you doing?" Wu Xiaode asked, puzzled.

"Child, please save yourself over and over again without hesitation, because only if you survive, there is hope for everything."
