After the battle at Wild City ended, everyone began cleaning up the battlefield and collecting the bodies of the fallen warriors.
Xiao Zhen sat on a large rock, watching everyone bustle about, but his heart was full of worries. He kept replaying Wild Star's words in his mind.
Why would going to Thunder Hall be a wasted trip? Could it be that, even with such a powerful army under his command, he still could not capture Thunder Hall?
And that little girl Jingjing—who knew where she was now? Was she at Thunder Hall with the Fierce Beast Clan army, preparing to fight him to the death, or somewhere else?
"Xiao Zhen, everything's packed up. Time to go!" Vanguard said.
Xiao Zhen nodded. He stopped thinking about everything else. They would go to Thunder Hall first and see what happened. With so many elite troops at his disposal, he feared no schemes or tricks.
As for Hot Wheels, relying on his nimble speed, he had already escaped Energy City. Yet the Green Panther Beast behind him still pursued him relentlessly. It seemed determined to pick a fight with him.
"Hey! Green Panther Beast, why do you insist on chasing me to the bitter end? Even if you kill me, you won't get much combat energy from it."
"Your mouth stinks too badly. If I don't kill you today, I won't feel right!" the Green Panther Beast roared.
Hot Wheels quickly ran into a dead end. Ahead stood a towering stone wall, perhaps forty or fifty meters high. There was no way he could get over it. He immediately turned to glance at the Green Panther Beasts that had surrounded him.
"Hehe, nowhere left to run now, huh? Be a good boy and die!" the Green Panther Beast sneered.
Despair filled Hot Wheels's heart, but then he seemed to remember that he still had one ultimate move. It was time to use it.
"Hmph! Green Panther Beast, don't get too cocky. I still have an ultimate move I haven't used. Do you dare take one of my attacks?" Hot Wheels said confidently.
"Forget one ultimate move. Even if you had ten, I'd still turn you into scrap metal today!" the Green Panther Beast said disdainfully.
"You dare look down on Hot Wheels, the number two figure of City of Time? Watch this—Nine Heavens Thunder Two-Foot Kick!" Hot Wheels let out a string of frantic cries, transformed directly back into a motorcycle, and charged at the Green Panther Beast.
The Green Panther Beast, who had been shouting so arrogantly just moments ago, now watched Hot Wheels solemnly. This kid was so confident—could he really have some kind of killing move?
When Hot Wheels rushed close to the Green Panther Beast, he transformed back into robot form and leaped into the air using the momentum of his charge.
The Green Panther Beast hurriedly raised both arms to protect his head from harm.
Hot Wheels, soaring high into the air, seized the moment and stomped both feet viciously onto the Green Panther Beast's head. With a graceful flip, he vaulted right over the Green Panther Beast's head. After landing, Hot Wheels transformed back into a motorcycle and continued fleeing.
The Green Panther Beast only felt something step on his head. He had not suffered any real damage. When he turned and saw Hot Wheels fleeing for his life, he finally realized that he had been played.
"You bastard, you dared to fool me! I'll definitely turn you into scrap metal today!" the Green Panther Beast roared.
Hot Wheels gradually moved beyond the range of Energy City. He was the only one to escape Energy City. After all, Ice Wolf Beasts filled the skies while countless Black Panther Beasts covered the ground. Escaping to deliver a warning was practically harder than climbing to heaven.
It was only because Hot Wheels was being chased by the Green Panther Beast that no one believed he could escape its pursuit. That was why no one had intercepted Hot Wheels. In their eyes, he was already as good as dead.
Inside Energy City, Lightning City Lord and City Lord Huang were once again sent flying by Tiger King. Both their health had dropped below 40%. Then, with practiced ease, they each took out an Energy Amethyst and forcibly stabbed it into themselves. The energy and health within their bodies began to slowly recover.
Watching them use such shameless tactics again and again, Tiger King was about to go mad. He knew they had plenty of Energy Amethysts, but they could not squander them like this! This was already the fourth time they had used Energy Amethysts. How was he supposed to fight them?
Blue Poison Beast, who had originally fought alongside Tiger King, had already run off somewhere. Blue Poison Beast's health was also running low, so he had withdrawn from the battle early.
Tiger King's health was now down to only 17%. Watching the two men across from him continually restore their health, he could only grit his teeth and pull out an Energy Amethyst. This was one of his few remaining possessions. He did not have an Energy Amethyst mine—every one he used meant one less.
"Brother Huang, look, Tiger King is using an Energy Amethyst too," Lightning teased.
"Before Xiao Zhen and the others left, they gave us quite a few Energy Amethysts. How many can Tiger King possibly have to outlast us? I still have thirteen. We'll see whether he falls first or we do!" City Lord Huang said with a sinister grin.
"Hehe!" Lightning City Lord laughed awkwardly. "I was worried you might not have enough Energy Amethysts, so I was going to give you a few. Who knew you had one more than me?"
"Tiger King, why are you looking so miserable? It seems this tiger of yours is starting to falter!" A teasing voice suddenly came from the sky.
The group looked up and discovered that it was Tyrannosaurus God, who had left the battlefield earlier.
"Tyrannosaurus God, did you go have diarrhea or something? Why did it take you so long to show up?" Tiger King roared.
After landing, Tyrannosaurus God said somewhat sheepishly, "There was nothing I could do. You know how badly I was injured before. If I didn't spend more time recuperating and restoring my health to its peak, how could I possibly justify using that Energy Amethyst?"
"I didn't expect Tyrannosaurus God to arrive so quickly. It looks like we're in trouble now," Lightning said gravely.
City Lord Huang nodded in agreement. Although he was only one level away from a level 20 War King, that one level was extremely difficult to cross. If not for the Energy Amethysts supporting them, he and Lightning could not have held out for so long. They probably could not even have handled Tiger King alone.
Before long, the two City Lords clashed with the two War Kings, and the fierce battle began anew.
On a small hill overlooking the battlefield, Jingjing watched the flames of war below with a smile on her face. Soon, this greatest city of the Motorcycle Clan would become a pile of ruins.
Behind Jingjing stood the Purple Dragon Beast and several Ice Wolf Beasts, all guards responsible for protecting her safety.
"I wonder how things are going with Wild Star. They should still be fighting fiercely by now, right?" Jingjing could not help but wonder.
What Jingjing did not know was that Wild Star had already surrendered with his subordinates, and Xiao Zhen had not tried to wipe them out. Otherwise, the battle might have continued for another two or three hours.
"Hey! Green Panther Beast, you've been chasing me for almost an hour. Aren't you tired? Why don't you go back? Your marshal needs you!" Hot Wheels, fleeing in a hurry, called back to the relentlessly pursuing Green Panther Beast.
"Stop talking nonsense. I refuse to believe that I, the Green Panther Beast, can't kill you today!" The Green Panther Beast was furious. This kid did not have much skill, but he sure could run fast.
The cannon on the Green Panther Beast's back immediately aimed at Hot Wheels and began firing short bursts again and again.
Hot Wheels truly deserved his reputation as an expert at running away. He kept drifting and dodging, avoiding almost every shell fired at him.
"Kid, if you've got guts, stop running!" the Green Panther Beast roared.
Hot Wheels said disdainfully, "If you've got guts, stop chasing me. If you stop chasing me, then I'll... Damn!"
Hot Wheels, speeding along at high speed, seemed to have accidentally skidded with his front tire. The whole motorcycle rolled over several times before finally transforming back into robot form.
"Run! Go on, keep running!" the Green Panther Beast sneered.
Hot Wheels hurriedly climbed up from the ground. When he saw behind the Green Panther Beast, he suddenly cried out in delight, "Tornado, save me!"
The Green Panther Beast kicked Hot Wheels, sending him flying more than ten meters away. He said disdainfully, "You think I'll fall for the same trick twice? Earlier, you called for Blaze to save you, and now it's Tornado. Do you really think I'm that easy to fool?"
Rat-a-tat-tat! The sound of a Heavy Machine Gun rang out. The Green Panther Beast only felt pain in his back. Turning around, he saw an orange helicopter flying behind him.
The Green Panther Beast was shocked. "It really is Tornado! Shouldn't he be in Wild City? How did he end up here?"
