Chapter 1545: Chapter 1040: Battle of the Behemoths_2

"Dong-----!"

The clock tolls again, and Mary sees the platform where Duanmu Huai stands gradually rise, arcs of golden light appearing around it, enveloping Duanmu Huai. The entire metal temple trembles violently, as life energy begins to weave through the previously cold, inorganic substance, bestowing it with a new beginning.

"Ring the bell three times! Sing in chorus, praise Omnom!"

"Dong-----!"

Amidst the angelic chorus, the clock tolls again.

At the same time, the world tilts.

"Boom-------------!!!"

The ground shakes, and the unyielding ice suddenly cracks open, a gigantic shadow soaring forth, as tall as the monsters!

"What is that thing?!"

Liliath and others, who are striving to maintain the barrier, are stunned, eyes wide open as they watch a metal robot, carrying a gigantic cathedral on its back, emerge from the ice. It shoulders unimaginable giant cannons, its hands raised, with luxurious engravings and motifs of skulls and gears beneath its dark, heavy armor.

"Awoo!!!"

At this moment, the giant monster also notices the existence of this gigantic machine, opens its mouth wide, and a bolt of lightning shoots out, directly toward the Steel Giant. However, the scorching lightning, capable of reducing everything in its path to ashes, is completely blocked by the circular barrier manifesting around the Steel Giant before it even makes contact.

"Let me see if this thing is any good!"

Standing on the platform, staring at the giant beast before him, Duanmu Huai clenches his fists tightly and thrusts them together. This Emperor-class Titan is one of Duanmu Huai’s strongest combat gear that he carries with him. More importantly, this Titan has undergone modifications - back in the Mech Battle World, Duanmu Huai assisted the humans of that world to exterminate the cosmic monsters from the Center of the Milky Way, and obtained the Steel Bastar driving system as a reward.

This driving system allows the pilot to synchronize with the robot, so whatever posture the pilot assumes inside, the robot outside can mimic.

Honestly, Duanmu Huai thinks it’s not very useful, but with the attitude that it’s better to use it than not, he equipped his Emperor-class Titan with one.

Now is the time to see if this thing is any good.

"The divine machine has arrived! Alien, perish swiftly!"

Duanmu Huai’s shout echoes through the entire icy plain, stunning everyone.

"Is this Tribunal’s stuff?"

Even Naruse Mio is dumbfounded, looking at the Steel Warrior, nearly as tall as the monster, unable to utter a word. Although she has imagined that Tribunal must be a particularly powerful organization, only now does Naruse Mio truly witness the formidable strength of Tribunal.

"Rumble boom!"

At this moment, Duanmu Huai is already driving the Titan, like an angry bull, directly charging at the giant monster ahead. The Titan’s right arm, equipped with the Titan War Claw, mercilessly penetrates into the body of the giant beast before it, running it through. The giant beast is no slouch, snarling in rage, biting down hard on the Steel Titan’s body, while lightning bursts and flashes around, forcing Liliath, Naruse Mio, and others to hastily retreat, lest they become casualties of the two’s battle.

"Come on, show me what else you’ve got!"

Duanmu Huai manipulates the Titan to grab the beast’s head, and simultaneously, the two Plasma Destroyer Cannons on the Titan’s shoulders roar, unleashing a dazzling energy flood directly onto the monster’s body, blasting several bloodied wounds on its shell that even magic couldn’t harm.

"-----!"

The pain driven monster instinctively retreats, but of course, Duanmu Huai doesn’t give it the chance, roaring fiercely, wielding the Chainsaw Sword, cleaving down decisively on the giant beast’s shoulder, leaving a deep scar on its massive, turtle-like body.

The intense pain enrages the monster, making it roar wildly, raising its paw and striking heavily on the Steel Titan’s body.

The battle between the two titans has completely exceeded the range others could intervene, even Naruse Mio and Frieren are flying into the sky, standing around Liliath, watching the battle between the two terrifying behemoths below.

"I never expected Tribunal to have such terrifying weapons..."

"Indeed..."

Liliath nods slightly, glancing at Naruse Mio. She still remembers the investigation report about Naruse Mio after returning from the Devil World. At that time, another Superior Demon family antagonistic to Naruse Mio’s family excitedly launched an attack after excavating Spirit Titans from the Ancient Battlefield, only to infuriate Duanmu Huai, leading to their total annihilation, and those three ancient Titans directly became scrap.

Many from the Demon Clan were regretful at the time, feeling it was a pity to have such valuable things smashed into pieces.

But now, what Tribunal possesses is clearly an existence more fearsome than the Spirit Titans back then. You must know, the Spirit Titans were merely over ten meters tall, not even reaching the height of the Steel Giant’s knees from Tribunal.

If such an existence were to join the battlefield of gods and demons, what would happen?

At this thought, Liliath shudders, not daring to imagine further.

Meanwhile, the battle between both sides approaches an end.

After all, the giant monster is a biological entity, fundamentally incomparable to the cold Steel Warrior. Soon enough, it wails and collapses to the ground, and then, the Steel Giant extends its Titan War Claw, grabbing the monster’s head and lifting it, with all its cannons targeting the monster’s undefended body.

"Bang-------!!!"

It’s a thunderous strike, the sound alone nearly making everyone flying in the air fall to the ground, and even the reverberating sonic waves across the field seem like possessing an indefinable grand force, unstoppable. The monster, bearing the brunt of the artillery, bursts apart, swallowed by the rolling flames in midair, transforming into charred ashes and vanishing entirely.

"Phew..."

Seeing this, Mary breathes a sigh of relief.

"Is it over, Mr. Duanmu?"

"Over?"

Hearing Mary’s question, Duanmu Huai chuckles coldly.

"No, this is just the beginning!"

"Ah-----!?"
