Chapter 343 - The t.i.tan Mothers.h.i.+p, 100,000 t.i.tans
The violent collision quickly destroyed the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p the giants were riding on, but the patriarch did not care. Instead, he continued his frantic attack.
The patriarch had impressive combat strength, his moves ferocious. Apparently, he would not stop until he could tear Ling Jiu into pieces.
However, it puzzled him. Ling Jiu was obviously weaker than him, yet he could not hurt Ling Jiu one bit. Ling Jiu was not only unhurt but also becoming stronger after each attack.
"D*mn it!"
The patriarch was exasperated, doubling down his strength and attack.
Unfortunately, it was useless. The Golden Saiyan Ape avatar had too much blood.
It had the Floating Island as its source of enormous Dark Bio-energy, from which it produced vitality and Arcana. It was incapable of being hurt or dying as long as there was a Dark Bio-energy supply.
On the contrary, the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar was using Dark Bio-energy to increase its physical strength.
It was no exaggeration to say that with the Floating Island and many Arcanas, the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar was no longer a simple Golden Saiyan Ape.
It was the perfect, ultimate Golden Saiyan Ape warrior with no shortcomings, and it had far better potential than any other Golden Saiyan Ape.
"Kill him for me!"
The patriarch was shocked and realized that he must not allow Ling Jiu to continue growing after his attacks failed successively.
"Aye, Patriarch."
The other giants joined the battle with no hesitation.
"There is nothing brave about ganging up. That"s too much."
Ling Jiu might not have had fun being beaten up by the patriarch, but he chose to grin and bear it so that he could quickly improve his strength.
It would not be a battle but a self-flagellation when a group of giants joined the fight. He did not like that idea of self-flagellation and would not allow them to do that to him.
"Grab these people, Leoux. They are a nuisance."
"You got it."
When Leoux struck, no one could escape from it. The remaining giants were quickly suppressed and apprehended. Now, the patriarch was the only one left.
"D*mn it! What have you done?" The patriarch was shocked and enraged upon seeing the group of giants disappear into Ling Jiu"s wrist.
These people were the survivors he had found from different places. They were his lifeblood and the hope of the Caius t.i.tan"s revival. He would never allow anything to happen to his people.
How could he tolerate when his people were captured under his nose?
"Nothing. Just a fair fight!" Ling Jiu let out a faint smile. "Keep fighting if you want them back. You may get them back if you kill me."
"You thief! I will kill you!"
...
The super-cl.u.s.tered being was so powerful that his every move released enough energy to destroy everything.
When fighting with the king of the G.o.ds, Zeus, the sun G.o.d, Ling Jiu was extremely strained. One false move could cause tremendous destruction to Earth.
It might not advance to the point of destroying the entire Earth, but ma.s.s casualties were a.s.sured. This time around, nothing could hold Ling Jiu back. The same applied to the patriarch.
So Olympus was bearing the brunt of the battle.
Mountains were razed to the ground.
Rivers had stopped flowing.
Trees were broken.
The Direbeasts and native people living on Olympus suffered the most; they were pulverized, becoming collateral damage.
It was a day of disaster.
The battle lasted from morning to afternoon, and from afternoon to evening. When the star was about to set, the battle finally ended.
The two sides looked at each other from afar.
Ling Jiu was bedraggled, but his eyes were bright. He suffered no injury.
On the other hand, the patriarch was gasping for breath. He looked perfectly okay—not a hair out of place, but deep down, he was completely exhausted.
"What kind of monster are you?"
The patriarch"s eyes were bloodshot. He stared at Ling Jiu and could not understand why Ling Jiu suffered no injury despite receiving the heavy blows.
Not only that, there was no sign of exhaustion or flush on Ling Jiu"s face, as if he had not been fighting just now.
That just made little sense.
"My strength is not something you can measure." Ling Jiu smirked. "You must be exhausted by now. Take a break. We shall continue tomorrow."
"What do you mean?" The patriarch frowned.
He then saw a smoke-like black chain shoot out from Ling Jiu"s wrist toward him.
"Sh*t!"
His face changed drastically. That was how his people had been captured. Now, it was coming for him.
The patriarch fled with no hesitation. As quick as he was, the black chain was even quicker. After he ran a mere hundred meters, the black chain caught him and bound him up like a dumpling before it took him back into the Leoux.
"These powerful Caius t.i.tans make excellent sparring partners. They will help the Golden Saiyan Ape avatar become a super-cl.u.s.tered being," Ling Jiu said. "You just mentioned mothers.h.i.+p. What is it about, Leoux?"
"These t.i.tans and their s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p are not alone here on Olympus. There is also a mothers.h.i.+p waiting above Olympus," Leoux said. "I have done a brief investigation; there are nearly 100,000 Caius t.i.tans on that mothers.h.i.+p."
"No wonder these t.i.tans couldn"t care less even when their s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p was wrecked. It turns out they have a mothers.h.i.+p out there." Ling Jiu finally put two and two together. "Let"s check it out."
As soon as his voice trailed off, Ling Jiu teleported out of Olympus into outer s.p.a.ce. There, he saw a giant s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p floating near the planet.
As much as it was a s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p, it looked more like a planet. It was as large as the Moon, spherical, with horns all over its surface.
"So this is the mothers.h.i.+p of the Caius t.i.tans?" Ling Jiu was wide-eyed.
"I just retrieved the memory of a t.i.tan," Leoux said. "There is a lot of useful information, one of which is about the remnants of the Caius t.i.tans."
"What is it?" Ling Jiu c.o.c.ked an eyebrow.
"Since the Lernaean Hydras decimated the Caius t.i.tans five thousand years ago, the surviving Caius t.i.tans have scattered into different parts of the universe," Leoux said. "Dolanos, who just fought with you, is one of them. He is the patriarch of the Dola Tribe. Dolanos and a small number of his people have been wandering around for the past five thousand years after fleeing to safety. They are looking for the other Caius t.i.tans, who might have survived. They want to gather their strength and restore the glory of the Caius t.i.tans. He has been to many places and found many surviving t.i.tans over the years. Some people followed him while some rejected him. The one hundred thousand Caius t.i.tans on this mothers.h.i.+p have been fooled into following him, but more t.i.tans have rejected him."
"Leoux, you mean…" Ling Jiu"s eyes brightened up.
"The fact that Caius t.i.tans dominated the Andromeda galaxy shows how impressive their talent and strength are. A Caius t.i.tan will become a stellar being upon reaching a.d.u.l.thood. The genius ones would become galactic beings, and the best of these geniuses would become super-cl.u.s.tered beings," Leoux said. "It is a superb species that makes excellent gardeners, just like the Kryptonians. Of course, the super-cl.u.s.tered beings among them can also provide a lot of Dark Psionic Energy."
"That"s absolutely right."
