The two groups of summoned monsters collided with brutal force, tearing into each other without rcy. Bodies disintegrated by the second, falling like broken statues. Han Wu’s terracotta army proved more resilient, with many soldiers enduring the Poison Orbweavers’ savage onslaught.
The adventurer team quickly grasped the situation and summoned every creature at their disposal: the Platinum Wicked Tiger, Platinum Berserk Wolf, Platinum Unideer, and more. The Platinum summons arrived and quickly turned the tide, effortlessly tearing through the terracotta soldiers and engaging the twelve golden giants in fierce combat.
The golden giants managed to withstand the attacks for a ti, but many still fell in the process. The adventurers observed that each ti a golden giant was destroyed and re-summoned, it was defeated even faster than before.
The situation grew dire for Han Wu and his team. Once all the golden giants had perished and been re-summoned, multiple Platinum monsters would assault them simultaneously. Unfortunately, most of Han Wu’s allies lacked the strength to mount any aningful defense.
Lady i’s worry deepened. She knew Han Wu had the power to turn the tide. She suspected he could not act because the four of them were holding him back. Otherwise, he would have already escaped or slain their enemies.
Her resolve hardened, and she shouted, “Senior Han Wu, just leave us. I know you can easily avenge us with your strength.”
Saurman, Xue Feng, and Alice shared her thoughts. Rather than drag Han Wu down, they preferred to let him survive alone and seek revenge on their behalf.
Saurman’s voice ca hoarse but firm. “Young man, don’t worry about us. It’s a blessing we’ve lasted this long. Escape now while you still can. At the very least, survive.”
Xue Feng nodded slowly. “Thank you for the antidote, but I fear I won’t be able to repay you.”
Alice plucked one of her hair accessories and handed it to Han Wu. “If you live and escape, give this to my family. I’m sure they won’t bla you.”
Han Wu smiled warmly at them, moved by their gestures. Though their ti together had been brief, he felt certain they saw him as a reliable teammate. After witnessing their loyalty, he knew he could never let them down.
“If you want to show your resolve, then shut up already. The battle isn’t over yet.” He turned just in ti to see the Platinum monsters finish off the last of his golden giants. “I’ve only just finished warming up.”
Han Wu raised his palm, activated his Diamond Monster Ender title, and summoned every Diamond monster he had registered. Each looked strange, bearing features that no creature of their race should possess, yet the pressure they radiated matched that of a true Diamond monster.
Although their pressure asured only about a tenth of a regular Diamond monster’s strength, it still posed a serious threat to the Platinum monsters. Despite being summons, the Platinum monsters retained so of their instincts. The mont they sensed the Diamond monsters, they surrendered; so even fled with their tails tucked beneath them.
The adventurer team had no idea what had just happened. They stared in shock as their enemy suddenly summoned over twenty Diamond monsters. Such creatures were native only to the most remote regions; they did not appear out of nowhere.
Only the Diamond adventurer sensed sothing was off. He had a Diamond monster summon and could tell that the pressure radiating from Han Wu’s summoned Diamond monsters was unusual. They felt too weak, as if their power had been diluted.
“Boss, what’s wrong? Do we keep fighting?”
The Diamond adventurer hesitated, then gave a slow nod. “Fight.”
He then stepped forward and summoned his own monster, the Diamond Mountain Ape. It appeared out of nowhere, and he commanded it, “Go and destroy those summoned monsters.”
The Mountain Ape charged on all fours toward Han Wu. At once, the summoned monsters surged forward to protect him, but sothing was off the mont they clashed. The twenty summoned monsters shattered like fragile paper under the Mountain Ape’s relentless punches. In the end, the Mountain Ape killed all twenty of Han Wu’s summoned monsters while sustaining only minor injuries.
Saurman and the others stood frozen in shock. What had just happened? Had Han Wu only been putting up a brave front? Their enemies shared the surprise but quickly erupted with joy.
“Those monsters are useless! Like porcelain—nice to look at, but they shatter too easily.”
“My Wicked Tiger could’ve taken out two or three of them. Can’t believe I got fooled again.”
“When we catch him, don’t kill him. We need to find out how he can summon that many Diamond monsters at once...”
While they reveled in what they thought was a guaranteed win, Han Wu silently used his title to summon sothing else. A single monster appeared, radiating a far stronger presence.
Saurman and the others assud Han Wu was struggling before his inevitable death because the summoned monster seed too weak. It could not even challenge the Mountain Ape.
Lady i, ever observant, sensed sothing amiss. The monsters Han Wu had summoned earlier were strong, yet their movents had been stiff and unnatural. They could barely display even 5% of a Diamond monster’s true strength. This one, however, felt different. She could sense a fierce battle spirit radiating from it.
She also recognized the summoned monster this ti. It was one of the Diamond Berserk Wolves Han Wu had slain earlier. Watching closely, she saw the wolf charge at the Mountain Ape. Despite a fierce fight, the Mountain Ape’s massive fist crushed it. Still, the wolf managed to leave a savage wound on the ape.
After watching the Diamond Berserk Wolf vanish, Han Wu finally grasped the true power of the Monster Ender title’s summons. They were nearly useless. Combining a material and soul for a summon reduced the monster’s battle strength to just 25% of its original power. Even then, it was still very weak.
Thankfully, the title had one last effect that could help him: permanently sacrificing a monster to temporarily boost his own physique. He could activate it imdiately.
After defeating its opponent, the Mountain Ape approached Han Wu and the others. As a summoned monster, it was bound to follow its owner’s orders.
Han Wu stepped forward and intercepted the attack. He did not grip his greatsword but instead raised his fist. The Mountain Ape swung its powerful fist in anger. Han Wu t the blow head-on, striking the ape’s fist with his own.
Everyone watching thought Han Wu was crazy, yet what followed stunned them all. Han Wu actually stopped the Mountain Ape’s fist. More surprising, the ape seed weaker compared to Han Wu.
The Diamond adventurer’s eyes widened in disbelief. “What’s going on? Isn’t the Mountain Ape known for its raw power? How could a human overpower it?!”
