End of Days Game: I'm the Only One Who Can See the Hidden Cues - Chapter 295

Chapter 295: Chapter 295: The Terminal Town
Jeremy’s resolute tone not only shocked the injured god of war but also surprised Ritchie, who stood beside him. The two of them instinctively turned their gazes toward Jeremy.

“Do you really think that we can defeat a powerful enemy by working together? Don’t you realize that the entire Tower of Exile is under the strict surveillance of the supervisors? They could discover us at any moment!” The injured god of war’s voice grew increasingly weak as he spoke.

Jeremy shook his head. “Of course I know that the supervisors in the Tower of Exile could find us quickly. But that’s not an excuse for us to give up hope! We can become stronger before they locate us. From your earlier description, it’s quite clear that as you approach the bottom of the Tower of Exile, your power diminishes faster and faster.

Have you considered that this might be because the lower levels of the Tower of Exile can absorb your strength? If you go against the current and move toward the upper levels of the Tower of Exile, you might be able to regain your power!”

What Jeremy said was merely a guess, and even he did not fully believe in its validity.

Upon hearing this, the expression on the injured god of war’s face shifted rapidly. It seemed that Jeremy’s words had convinced him. “Are you saying that as long as we can reach the center of the town, I can regain the strength I had when I first entered this level?”

In response to the inquiry, Jeremy did not provide a definitive answer. He simply said, “You can only know the final result once you start moving. If you wait here for your inevitable end, then you will never know whether the guess is right or wrong!”

Jeremy’s words finally rekindled some fighting spirit in the injured god of war. Slowly, he stood up. “Even though my strength has almost dissipated, I will still fight for myself! I would rather fall in the midst of battle! And with your help, I might still succeed! Let’s hope we can grow stronger before they find us.”

Having successfully persuaded the injured god of war, Jeremy and Ritchie began to move toward the center of the town together.

At the same time, at the very center of the town, two powerful Intelligent Machines were discussing their next course of action. The Mechanical Rampage Beast, designed for combat, was visibly agitated because it had failed to complete the task assigned by the White Tower.

Next to the Mechanical Rampage Beast, the reconnaissance mechanical sentinel remained calm and collected.

“How long are you going to take to find the fleeing warrior? Our master wants us to capture him as soon as possible! Our pace has already disappointed him greatly!” The Mechanical Rampage Beast roared angrily at the nearby mechanical sentinel.

The mechanical sentinel replied in its characteristic cold electronic voice, “There’s no need to be so impatient. I’ll be able to find him shortly. And in Terminal Town, no one can escape. Anyone who comes here will be destroyed by the town’s own power. Before long, the fleeing warrior will likely die in some corner of the town. All we need to do is find his corpse; there’s no need for any combat at all!”

The sentinel’s words only fueled the anger of the Mechanical Rampage Beast further. If no combat was necessary, then what value did the Mechanical Rampage Beast have? It smashed the table in front of it with its claws, hoping to exert some pressure on the mechanical sentinel.

However, the mechanical sentinel was utterly indifferent. It continued to use High-Dimensional Data to manipulate one reconnaissance robot after another, searching all over Terminal Town.

After about half an hour of searching, the mechanical sentinel still hadn’t discovered any leads. “It seems he’s indeed hiding very well! I haven’t found him in the town at all! If you want to find him quickly, you’d better set out yourself,” the sentinel said coldly to the Mechanical Rampage Beast.

With crimson eyes glaring at the mechanical sentinel, the Mechanical Rampage Beast charged out of the center of the town, taking its combat robots with it.

Not long after the Mechanical Rampage Beast left, the mechanical sentinel suddenly realized it had lost contact with one of its reconnaissance robots.

“The reconnaissance robot has come under enemy attack! Quickly scan the area! If any anomalies are detected, summon the combat robots immediately!” The sentinel’s reaction was swift. The moment it detected the unusual situation, it relayed this information to the Mechanical Rampage Beast.

Naturally, the Mechanical Rampage Beast rushed to the last known location of the reconnaissance robot before it lost contact.

The reason for the loss of communication between the reconnaissance robot and the mechanical sentinel was quite simple. The reconnaissance robot had been destroyed by Jeremy, who had already discovered the whereabouts of Jeremy, Ritchie, and the injured god of war.

After destroying the reconnaissance robot, Jeremy turned directly to the other two. “We need to get out of here quickly! Our whereabouts have been discovered by the enemy, and it won’t be long before a large number of mechanical monsters surround us!”

Both Ritchie and the injured god of war completely agreed with Jeremy’s assessment. Thus, the three of them moved at the fastest pace toward the center of the town.

They had barely left the area they were in when the Mechanical Rampage Beast, accompanied by several combat robots, arrived at their previous location. The Mechanical Rampage Beast carefully observed everything around it and finally detected traces of the injured god of war.

“The fleeing warrior was just here! He left not long ago; you must search the area immediately!” The Mechanical Rampage Beast commanded the combat robots it had brought along.

The combat robots quickly dispersed in different directions to search. They meticulously scoured for any clues, leaving no stone unturned.

Meanwhile, the mechanical sentinel provided the Mechanical Rampage Beast with crucial intelligence once again. “I have located the fleeing individual; he is accompanied by two others. The situation has exceeded our expectations. We need to inform our master about what’s happening here.”

Although the mechanical sentinel was eager to relay the unexpected developments to the White Tower, it needed the Mechanical Rampage Beast’s approval first, as the Rampage Beast was the primary leader in this operation.

The Mechanical Rampage Beast flatly refused. “These matters should not burden our master directly! It’s better for us to eliminate the fleeing warrior and the two others first. After that, we can report everything to our master!”

The Mechanical Rampage Beast’s reasoning was, in fact, more prudent. While the White Tower excelled at manipulating High-Dimensional Data and possessed great intelligence, its temper was notoriously poor. The White Tower often erupted in anger over trivial matters, which was something the mechanical monsters, despite lacking human emotions, were keenly aware of. They had excellent memories and were certainly unwilling to provoke their master over minor issues, fearing his wrath.

The mechanical sentinel ultimately conceded. “You’re right; we shouldn’t disturb our master over these trivial matters. I will keep a close watch on the movements of the three of them. Just follow my guidance and quickly find them.”

Under the guidance of the mechanical sentinel, the Mechanical Rampage Beast swiftly moved toward the direction where Jeremy and the others were located.

Jeremy naturally sensed the presence of the Mechanical Rampage Beast. At this point, he, Ritchie, and the injured god of war were very close to the center of the town. Jeremy decided it was time to use the gift of The King of Time and Space.

“Get ready! I’m about to open a Portal! This Portal will take us directly to the central building of the town! If I’m right, there are surely important subordinates of the White Tower inside that building.”

As soon as Jeremy finished speaking, a Portal materialized in front of the three of them. Without any hesitation, Jeremy, Ritchie, and the injured god of war stepped through the Portal.

They found themselves inside the central building of Terminal Town, where the mechanical sentinel stood, dumbfounded at the sudden appearance of the three individuals. Before the mechanical sentinel could react, Jeremy swiftly pulled an axe from his pocket and cleaved the sentinel’s head in two.

The mechanical sentinel never had a chance to inform the Mechanical Rampage Beast of what had occurred. The Rampage Beast continued to believe that Jeremy and his companions were still about half a kilometer away from the central building.

After eliminating the mechanical sentinel, Jeremy decided to quickly gather all the High-Dimensional Data it possessed. He aimed to use this data to uncover what information the enemy had.

“We need to stay here for a while; this is the only way I can gather more useful intelligence. While I’m collecting data, you two must ensure my safety,” Jeremy said quickly to Ritchie and the injured god of war.

Ritchie nodded heavily in agreement. Although the injured god of war hesitated for a moment, he ultimately decided to follow Jeremy’s orders. The reason he chose to comply was that he sensed his strength was beginning to return. This meant that everything Jeremy had told him was true—there was a real possibility he could become stronger before they were found.

The injured god of war completely trusted Jeremy now. After all, he was his only hope and the only way to regain his powers. At least until he confronted the White Tower, he would continue to cooperate with Jeremy.

He hoped everything would go smoothly until then. It all depended on Jeremy, the injured god of war thought to himself.
