End of Days Game: I'm the Only One Who Can See the Hidden Cues - Chapter 187

Chapter 187: A Battle with Nearly No Hope of Victory
Upon witnessing Claire calling Bonnie, Ritchie promptly reacted as well, he immediately took out his own phone and dialed Howard’s number.

Both Claire and Ritchie, with utmost urgency, relayed the situation that Jeremy was facing to Bonnie and Howard.

Upon learning the pertinent information, Bonnie and Howard took immediate action.

At that moment, Bonnie was not far from where Jeremy and the others were located. Therefore, she could reach the battlefield within a few minutes, whereas Howard, stationed at the military base, would need about half an hour to arrive.

While everyone else was scrambling into action, Jeremy was also putting forth his utmost effort to battle the White Tower.

Although the Longsword of the Undying could not directly destroy High-Dimensional Data, its abilities successfully influenced the effects of the High-Dimensional Data.

The White Tower found itself unable to utilize its High-Dimensional Data to directly annihilate Jeremy.

After the initial clash, the White Tower once more assumed the form of Kean.

“It seems I have indeed underestimated you, the power you possess is sufficient to defeat my careless brothers.” the White Tower remarked with a hint of admiration.

However, immediately after, the White Tower followed up with a vicious statement: “But, it is impossible for you to defeat me using such methods. The power I wield far surpasses your imagination!”

The White Tower, now in the guise of Kean, extended its left hand forward in a deliberate motion.

Immediately, a weapon almost identical to the Longsword of the Undying materialized in the White Tower’s left hand.

With a smile on its face, the White Tower addressed Jeremy.

“Every weapon you wield, every skill you employ—I can replicate them! Moreover, the power of the weapons and skills I create is far superior to the originals you use.”

With those words, the White Tower charged at Jeremy, clutching the replica of the Longsword of the Undying.

The opponent’s advance was astoundingly rapid, leaving Jeremy with no time to evade.

Hence, all Jeremy could do at this moment was to use his own Longsword of the Undying to parry the replica weapon in his adversary’s hand.

When the two identical weapons collided head-on, an entirely unexpected scene unfolded before Jeremy’s eyes.

The replica in the White Tower’s hand remained completely undamaged.

However, the blade of the true Longsword of the Undying in Jeremy’s hand suddenly developed a crack.

The moment the crack appeared, Jeremy could feel the power contained within the Longsword of the Undying rapidly dissipating.

“How is this possible?! How can you defeat the genuine weapon I hold with a mere replica?!”

Jeremy asked incredulously, his voice filled with disbelief.

A slight smile played on the White Tower’s lips.

“Didn’t I just tell you? The weapons and skills I replicate are far more powerful than the originals.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the Longsword of the Undying in Jeremy’s hand snapped cleanly in half.

Seeing this, Jeremy decided not to engage the White Tower in direct combat any longer. He resolved to leave the battlefield immediately and retreat to a safer location.

Jeremy needed some time to contemplate his next move.

However, Jeremy’s opponent had no intention of granting him any time to think.

The instant Jeremy utilized his spatial sealing skill to evade the White Tower’s attack, the White Tower immediately replicated Jeremy’s spatial sealing skill and pursued him in the same direction.

Jeremy had not anticipated that every single one of his chosen tactics would utterly fail.

A slight sense of bewilderment crept over Jeremy.

In his recollection, defeating the apocalypse game’s planner didn’t seem like such an insurmountable task.

In reality, Jeremy had only managed to triumph over the apocalypse game’s planner because he had received assistance from other deities of equivalent rank.

Without the aid of the class change goddess Janna or the “World.” Jeremy would never have been able to defeat the “Sun.”

Although Jeremy couldn’t gain the upper hand in the battle, he could still rely on his own strength to ensure his safety.

After all, even if the White Tower could project its power into the real world, that power would be correspondingly diminished.

And so, Jeremy and the White Tower found themselves locked in a relentless game of chase and escape.

When Bonnie and Howard arrived at the battlefield, Jeremy and the White Tower had already departed.

“Where exactly did Jeremy go? And why isn’t that extremely powerful enemy you mentioned on the phone here either?”

Bonnie asked Ritchie, Claire, and Emma with a hint of urgency upon her arrival.

“They were just here fighting, but after some intense exchanges, it seemed they both decided it would be more advantageous to battle elsewhere.

They headed in that direction, if you follow the path we’re pointing to, you should find them quickly.”

Ritchie pointed directly in the direction where Jeremy had departed.

Bonnie nodded affirmatively and then quickly hurried off in that direction.

After watching Bonnie leave, Ritchie turned back and addressed Claire and Emma.

“In the current situation, I must also take responsibility. I need to go with Bonnie to offer support to Jeremy.” Ritchie declared, his tone resolute.

“You two stay here and relay everything that just happened to General Howard. Once he’s briefed, he can make an independent decision.”

After Ritchie had finished speaking, he decisively chose to hasten forward in the direction Jeremy had gone.

Following Ritchie’s departure, both Claire and Emma felt a slight pang of nervousness.

After all, they had never ventured out on their own before this moment.

“Do you think Jeremy is in grave danger? Is it possible he might not survive this battle?” Emma, though older, was actually the most fragile among them.

Hearing Emma’s concern, Claire shook her head calmly, her face an unreadable mask.

“I think you don’t need to be so pessimistic. We all know Jeremy’s strength very well. He can absolutely defeat any enemy. We just need to wait patiently for his success in the fight.” Claire reassured.

Claire’s words managed to calm Emma down.

However, deep down, Claire herself wasn’t entirely convinced by her own reassurances.

Since the moment Jeremy and the White Tower began their battle, Claire had already assessed that Jeremy’s strength was certainly no match for the White Tower.

However, for Claire, there was no other option but to trust Jeremy now.

Claire and Emma waited patiently for over ten minutes before Howard finally arrived in a flurry.

“Where are Jeremy and Ritchie? Ritchie just called me saying they encountered an exceptionally formidable enemy and requested my assistance.

Not only did I come to provide support myself, but I also brought all of my subordinates. Although their strength may not be the greatest, they can certainly offer some assistance in the battle.” Howard explained hastily.

As he spoke, numerous helicopters appeared behind him, carrying Howard’s best warriors.

Seeing these soldiers, Claire and Emma felt slightly more at ease.

Although these soldiers were not exceptionally powerful, their sheer numbers provided a significant advantage. In a scenario of many against few, even the White Tower would find it difficult to gain the upper hand in battle.

Claire and Emma recounted all the events that had transpired.

Upon hearing this information, Howard’s expression turned grim.

“I had previously warned Kean to stay away from Moonlight City! It seems he ignored my warning. After this incident is over, I will make sure he pays a heavy price.” Howard declared with a resolute tone.

Previously, Howard only harbored a slight disdain for Kean.

However, after this incident, Howard’s feelings toward Kean had escalated to extreme hatred.

Finishing his statement, Howard led his subordinates in the direction Jeremy and the others had gone.

To ensure the safety of Claire and Emma, Howard took them along as well.

While others pursued Jeremy, Jeremy had finally been cornered by the White Tower. He found himself at the entrance of a high-difficulty instance, with no way out.

The White Tower once again transformed into the visage of Kean before Jeremy’s eyes.

“I told you before, you have no chance of defeating me. Your current actions are nothing but a waste of time. If you choose to surrender right now, I can grant you a swift and painless death, sparing you from much suffering.” the White Tower said with a smug smile.

The expression on its face was one of sheer confidence.

It believed that victory was already within its grasp.

Jeremy was out of powerful weapons. His allies were in no position to provide him with immediate assistance.

However, Jeremy’s next move left the White Tower utterly astonished.

The White Tower had assumed that Jeremy had fallen into despair, that he had lost all hope in this battle.

But at that moment, Jeremy spoke with a smile on his face.

“Do you really think you are already won? Luring you here is actually part of my plan. I’m going to use this high-difficulty instance to utterly defeat you now.”
