Energy City's conference hall was filled with a large number of Motorcycle Clan members.

There were car-type robots and helicopter-type robots among them. They were all people of some standing within Energy City.

Yet the one seated in the seat of honor was not Energy City's City Lord, but a little kid. Still, the crowd did not look at the child with much disdain.

Lightning City Lord was the first to ask, "Honorable Mecha King, many Fierce Beast Clan forces have already appeared outside Energy City. What should we do next?"

Lightning City Lord asked this because he wanted to see whether Xiao Zhen had any other abilities besides controlling the Motorcycle Clan.

After pondering for a moment, Xiao Zhen said calmly, "Energy City's situation is indeed far from optimistic. On the surface, the two War Kings, Tiger King and Wild Star, are watching us like tigers stalking their prey. In secret, there is also Tyrannosaurus God, and no one knows what kind of scheme he is plotting."

Lightning City Lord was somewhat puzzled. Why had Tyrannosaurus God become involved? Outside, there were only Tiger King's Black Panther Beasts and Wild Star's Black Iron Beasts. It did not seem to have much to do with Tyrannosaurus God.

"Mecha King, is Tyrannosaurus God also targeting Energy City? Why haven't we found a single clue?" Lightning City Lord asked.

Xiao Zhen sighed. He was about to reveal some spoilers. Of course, what he was about to say might cause Lightning City Lord some psychological harm.

"Lightning City Lord, I have some news to tell you next. It concerns you. I hope you can pull yourself together after hearing it."

Lightning was somewhat confused. What news could the Mecha King have? Could it really strike a blow against him? He was an old veteran who had been through countless battles. What could possibly shake him?

Lightning still said seriously, "Mecha King, please tell me. I'm also curious what news you have that concerns me."

Xiao Zhen said slowly, "Lightning City Lord, do you still remember your good brother, Blizzard?"

Hearing that familiar name so suddenly left Lightning in a daze. He had not heard any news of Blizzard for a long time. He had once considered going to find Blizzard, but for certain special reasons, he had abandoned the idea.

Lightning stared intently at Xiao Zhen and asked excitedly, "Mecha King, do you have news of Blizzard? If possible, please tell me how he is now. Is he... doing well?"

Xiao Zhen shook his head and said helplessly, "Sorry, Lightning City Lord, but I'm afraid I have to disappoint you. Blizzard is already dead."

"No! Impossible! You're lying to me! I'll never believe it! Blizzard... he... he can't be dead!" Lightning said excitedly. If not for the last remnants of his rationality holding him back, he would have already cleaved Xiao Zhen in two with a single slash.

Xiao Zhen looked at the somewhat irrational Lightning and could more or less understand. After all, Blizzard had been his best brother.

Because of the misunderstanding back then, Lightning had always felt guilty toward Blizzard.

The people around them were all shocked by Lightning City Lord's loss of composure. Apart from a handful of people who knew the truth, even Tornado, Lightning City Lord's disciple, did not know who Blizzard was.

After some time, Lightning finally calmed himself and said apologetically to Xiao Zhen, "I'm truly sorry, Mecha King. I got a little carried away just now!"

Xiao Zhen comforted him, "I understand. After all, this news has dealt you quite a heavy blow."

Lightning asked hesitantly, "Mecha King, can you tell me... how did Blizzard die?"

After saying that, Lightning fixed his eyes on Xiao Zhen, trying to see if there was any change in his expression. What I want to hear most is that this was all just a joke.

Xiao Zhen closed his eyes and began recalling the contents in his mind before speaking slowly:

"After falling out with you, Lightning City Lord, Blizzard went to the frozen lands and established Blizzard City.

However, he had always been unable to let go of what happened back then. So one day, he finally decided to find Blue Poison Beast and get to the bottom of it.

But when Blizzard found Blue Poison Beast, he discovered that Blue Poison Beast, who had supposedly already pledged allegiance to Tiger King, was secretly associating with Tyrannosaurus God.

By eavesdropping, Blizzard also learned that the conflict between the two of you back then had actually been Tyrannosaurus God's idea.

Later, Blizzard was accidentally discovered by Tyrannosaurus God. During the battle, Blue Poison Beast ambushed him. Although he managed to escape in the end, his injuries were too severe, and he could not be saved."

Upon hearing this, Lightning collapsed onto the floor. The collision between his metal body and the metal floor let out a tremendous clang.

Seeing Lightning City Lord in such a devastated state, Xiao Zhen was also somewhat stunned. He had not expected Blizzard's death to affect Lightning so deeply.

Tornado and General Silver, who were nearby, hurried forward and helped their City Lord up.

Seeing his master in such a dejected state made Tornado feel miserable as well. It was the first time he had seen his master so wretched, as though he had aged several hundred years in an instant.

Blaze asked doubtfully, "Xiao Zhen, why did Tyrannosaurus God work together with Blue Poison Beast to deal with the two City Lords, Lightning and Blizzard?"

Xiao Zhen clapped his hands and said loudly, "Blaze, that's a good question. Tyrannosaurus God went to such lengths to deal with the two City Lords because they could cultivate a Combined Ultimate Technique capable of countering him."

"A Combined Ultimate Technique? Like the Flowing Shadow Electric Flash that suits us?" Vanguard asked curiously.

Xiao Zhen nodded and explained, "The Flowing Shadow Electric Flash used by Vanguard and Blaze is a killing move meant to deal with Tiger King.

To deal with Tyrannosaurus God, however, two people who know Sky-Rending Ice Chop and Lightning Cyclone Slash are needed to unleash the Sky Feather Dragon Slaying Dance. It is a powerful killing move against Tyrannosaurus God."

At this moment, Lightning City Lord seemed to have recovered somewhat. He said bitterly, "My master once told me that as long as Blizzard and I joined forces, we could use the powerful Sky Feather Dragon Slaying Dance. I never expected that before we could master it, we would already be plotted against."

Vanguard asked anxiously, "If Blizzard City Lord is already dead, doesn't that mean there's no way to deal with Tyrannosaurus God?"

Xiao Zhen smiled and said, "Not necessarily. As far as I know, although Blizzard City Lord is gone, he still has a disciple named Supersonic. His strength is quite good, and he also knows Sky-Rending Ice Chop."

Vanguard swung his fist and said excitedly, "Then what are we waiting for? Hurry up and find that Supersonic guy, so Tyrannosaurus God doesn't harm him too."

"But will he come help us? The conflict between our two sides back then was no small matter," General Silver, an older veteran, said worriedly.

As an old-timer from back then, General Silver had participated in Energy City's civil war. He knew clearly that the two sides had formed many grudges. Even if someone had provoked them from behind the scenes, those grudges would not be easy to resolve.

Tornado said uncertainly, "He should come, right? His master was killed by Tyrannosaurus God. Doesn't he want to avenge his master?"

Xiao Zhen said in agreement, "Tornado is right. If we use revenge as the reason, Supersonic should join us in dealing with Tyrannosaurus God.

And besides Supersonic, we must also obtain the Blizzard Token as soon as possible. It is an extremely important item."
