Yang Cheng was surprised that there was news from the Giants so soon. However, since it was an urgent matter, Yang Cheng could only suppress his urge to pin Cai Ning down on the bed. He quickly took a shower and put on some clean clothes before heading to the hotel's conference room.
Poseidon, Christine, and the rest were already seated in the conference room, discussing something.
Yang Cheng noticed that there was a letter in the middle of the conference table. There were some scribbles written in black on it. He couldn't tell which language it was written in.
"What are you guys talking about? What's on this?" Yang Cheng asked with a frown as he picked up the letter.
Christine glanced at Yang Cheng's lower body with a weird gaze and smiled, "Do you want to learn? It's the language of the Protoss."
Yang Cheng was stunned. No wonder he couldn't understand it. He shook his head and said, "No need, I know enough foreign languages. Just tell me what it's about."
"It's simple. The leader of the Cyclopes, Brontes, invited us to have a meal in the dining hall after the Caesar Conference competition tomorrow morning. He said that it's their meeting after 20,000 years," Poseidon said with a straight face.
"Why did they suddenly take the initiative to talk? Why didn't they contact us before?" Yang Cheng was confused.
Stern held his arm and pinched his chin. He said slowly, "This is also something we don't understand. They didn't take the initiative to take revenge, but instead, they appeared so brazenly. What's the reason?"
"Why do we care so much? I think since they invited us, it's most likely to end this feud. If they want to fight, let's fight. If they submit to us, we'll spare their lives," Ares said in disdain.
The other Gods looked at him helplessly. Obviously, they couldn't do anything about Ares' rudeness.
Yang Cheng thought for a while and asked, "Are you guys worried that we might not be able to defeat them if we really fight?"
Hermes laughed and said, "If we were on Mars, they wouldn't even be able to fight one of our fingers. I can kill them all by myself.
But it's different now. Without either Athena or Zeus, we may not be able to defeat them even if we use all our abilities. Of course, we can still protect ourselves. "
"Don't you still have me? Qiangwei and Ning Er are also at the Soul Formation Stage. Why should we be afraid of them?" Yang Cheng shrugged.
"Hades, you think too little of the giants," Alice said helplessly, "Whether it's the Cyclops or the Hecatoncheires, they have an advantage against the cultivators of Hua Xia because they have the bloodline of our ancestors, the Titan Blood."
"Titan's Blood?"
"That's right." Alice glanced at the others. Seeing that no one was stopping her, she continued, "The Titan's Blood is the oldest bloodline of the Protoss. It is also our oldest and most powerful source of energy. The reason why we have less than 20% to 30% of our original strength is because our Titan's Blood has been sealed.
And because the Giants are a branch of our ancestors' bloodline, even if they don't have divinity due to their racial flaws, they are not considered Gods. Therefore, their Titan Blood is not as pure as ours. It's not as powerful, but because it's not pure enough, it hasn't been sealed. "
"Wait." Yang Cheng interrupted, "I've always wanted to know why the Gods lost so much of their strength. Since the Titan Blood is so powerful, why did they seal it? Is it related to Gaia's Heart? "
"This …" Alice hesitated, a hint of sadness in her eyes.
"Don't ask, it doesn't matter anymore. For us, it's an eternal pain in our hearts." Christen hurriedly took over the conversation. "I'll help Alice continue. The Titan Bloodline allows them to inherit extremely powerful innate abilities. Not only that, but their physical strength and resistance make them not very afraid of the True Inner Force of Huaxia cultivators.
Because the True Yuan of the cultivators of Hua Xia is actually a kind of element in the universe. You call it spiritual energy, but in essence, it's the same. You have to know that other than Zeus who suppressed them with lightning and sent them into a different dimension, none of us could do it. Even Athena couldn't kill them when she sealed her Titan Blood. "
"If they fought with their lives on the line, wouldn't they be beaten to the point of reincarnation?" Yang Cheng smiled bitterly.
"Not really. Let's not talk about whether or not they have the intention to fight. Even if they really came for revenge, we have the advantage in numbers. Besides, you've cultivated the Law of Space and Hua Xia's techniques, so it should be quite effective. It's a pity that you haven't reached the level of the cultivators of the Shang Qing Heavenly Lightning Tribulation 20,000 years ago. Otherwise, you'd be much more of a threat to them," Poseidon said.
Yang Cheng thought to himself, even if I haven't reached the level of the cultivators of 20,000 years ago, at least I have the Chaos Cauldron with me. It's still unknown who will win.
On the other hand, these guys, including Christen, were all secretive about the Titan Bloodline, as if they were afraid that he would know something. It was really suspicious. Unfortunately, they were all old foxes who had lived for tens of thousands of years. How could he get anything out of them?
When Cai Ning and Qiangwei heard these secrets of the Celestial Race, they were curious and did not feel much. After all, they were just cultivators. As women, they only cared about Yang Cheng's safety.
After the discussion, the thoughtful Poseidon specially asked Hermes to secretly check to see if anyone had tampered with the Colosseum of the Caesar's Conference in case it was a trap.
For Hermes, who was extremely fast and cunning, this should not be a difficult task. In the face of a common enemy, Hermes was cooperative and gladly agreed.
After a night, it was time for the third day of the Caesar Tournament.
This was the competition for the top 32. Those who could stand on the stage were all well-known mercenary organizations in the underground world. All the important officials of the host country also appeared in the stands.
Among the tens of thousands of spectators, there were also a large number of mercenaries who had been eliminated but did not leave. It could be said that the atmosphere was very lively.
Just like a few days ago, Poseidon, Hermes, and Ares used a VIP seat, while Yang Cheng brought the two women and shared a seat with Christen.
Before the start of the competition, Yang Cheng received a report from Makedon that the Left Minister of the Special Defense Department of Japan, Kagawa Nakatoshi, did not have any contact with the Cyclops or the Giants. The officials of other countries also did not have any contact with them.
However, these officials participated in a temporary secret meeting last night. Due to the lack of time, there was no way to know what was discussed.
Yang Cheng immediately had a hunch that the key to this matter should be focused on last night's secret meeting. But now it seemed that it was a little too late to investigate.
Just as Yang Cheng was thinking, Sauron suddenly called.
"Your Majesty Pluto, something is wrong!" Sauron's tone was quite urgent.
"What do you mean?"
"Take a look at the next round's announcement!"
Yang Cheng raised his head and looked at the huge digital signboard in the distance. It said, "Next round, Sea Eagles VS The Godslayers"!
"How could this be? Aren't we only going to meet them in the semi-finals?" Yang Cheng was stunned. He had seen the match-up table. As the seeded team, Sea Eagles would only meet the Godslayers in the later stages of the competition. The contestants of the Cyclops family were on the other side, and they would only meet in the finals.
"Someone secretly made a last-minute change, and the officials said that it was because of the original match-up table input error. This is a joke! They purposely wanted us to meet the Godslayers first! "Sauron said angrily.
Yang Cheng frowned. It seemed that the show was about to start, but he did not know what those guys were planning.
However, there was no turning back. It would be blasphemy to ask the Sea Eagles to give up the competition. They would rather die in battle than to give up. This was the blood that flowed in their veins.
After Christen and the others also noticed this, their expressions became rather solemn.
The five members of Sea Eagles walked into the ring fearlessly. They were only excited to know that the competition schedule had been changed. They could defeat these disrespectful guys in advance. The ignorant were fearless.
As for General Sauron's reminder to immediately give up and leave the ring when the situation was not right, the Sea Eagles members did not take it to heart.
Amidst the thunderous cheers of the audience, the five white-robed golden-faced giants of the God Slayers, who were the favorites to win the championship this time, walked onto the arena quietly.
