“What about water? Even a scoop of it can permeate the sand no matter how thick it is, let alone a huge wave, ” Zhao Manyan went on.

Mo Fan nodded. He felt like a young child listening to the teacher in a kindergarten.

“It doesn’t mean the truck has less force than the water, nor does it mean the defense of the sand isn’t strong. It’s the nature of different substances. The Silver Moon Tyrant Titan’s attacks are targeting the plane directly, so it’s useless to defend against it. Even the thickest defense will be torn apart with the plane, as there isn’t any magic substance left,” Zhao Manyan concluded.

“So that’s why you think you can’t defend against it?” Mo Fan asked.

“Isn’t that obvious? Even if I try my best to defend us, it is still going to break down. Aren’t we asking for our deaths if we keep fighting?” Zhao Manyan retorted.

“That means, if we can’t find a solution, we will never defeat that Silver Moon Tyrant Titan, let alone the culprit of Green Sprouts Island?” Mo Fan deduced.

“Mm, the Red Pine Hunter Group wasn’t weak. They must have prepared themselves, yet they lost so miserably. The main reason is because they didn’t understand the Tyrant Titan’s abilities. Once there are cracks in the plane, their defense was going to crack apart, allowing energy to permeate it and strike the Mages!” Zhao Manyan lectured him.

“It’s really not easy to take on Ruler-level creatures,” Mo Fan admitted.

“But don’t worry, I’ve been experimenting on how to deal with Spatial Cracks after watching the fight between Baxia and Qiu Chi,” Zhao Manyan went on.

“Did you find any solution?” Mo Fan was intrigued.

The spells he had encountered after he became a Super Mage varied a lot, not to mention the strange abilities of different demon creatures. It was necessary to learn a way to deal with these Spatial Cracks!

“Spatial Cracks will recover on their own. It’s normally done in a few milliseconds, so if we can speed the process up and fix the cracks even quicker, we can prevent energy from permeating our defense. That way, I shouldn’t have a problem blocking the Silver Moon Tyrant Titan’s attacks!” Zhao Manyan said firmly.

“So can you do it?” Mo Fan wondered.

“I haven’t mastered the technique. I need someone’s help to gather the energy nearby in a short period of time. Even a little crack will need all the energy within a hundred meters to be fixed. Judging from the size of the cracks the Silver Moon Tyrant Titan caused, we’ll need to gather the energy from around three to four kilometers to fill the cracks!” Zhao Manyan declared firmly.

“Only a Domain can gather energy,” Mo Fan mused.

“Yeah, you can’t help me, since you must use the energy you gather to attack the Tyrant Titan, or we won’t even hurt its skin. However, my Domain alone isn’t enough to fill the cracks in a short enough time. We can only think of another way. If we don’t solve this problem, I won’t dare fight a Silver Moon Tyrant Titan again,” Zhao Manyan stated.

Mo Fan wanted to go back to the inn, but Zhao Manyan insisted on having a few drinks.

Mu Bai came in a little later; Harper was with him. The civilian had shamelessly tagged along when he heard they were going to get some drinks.

“Say, aren’t you two being too optimistic? Why are you drinking here if you didn’t catch the Tyrant Titan?” Mu Bai grumbled when he arrived.

“We tried our best,” Mo Fan replied lazily.

Mu Bai observed Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan closely, and did not notice a single scratch on them. They did not even need to change. It was obvious that they did not fight much.

“We are here to drink. Why do you have to bring up such a serious topic? Work is the same whether you treat it seriously or slack a little. It’s nowhere as comfortable as having some drinks at night and talking about girls!” Harper started drinking naturally.

“Here, have some snake gall cocktail, it’s good for your kidneys,” Zhao Manyan gave Mu Bai a glass of liquor.

Good my ass!

The four had a few drinks. Zhao Manyan also explained the Spatial Cracks to Mu Bai and asked him to figure out a plan. Mu Bai was about to speak when people started cheering nearby.

“What happened? Did Manchester United score?” Harper immediately turned around, assuming they were watching a soccer game.

“Izisha is still the same. Our country never had any problems when she was in charge of the Parthenon Temple. Even when something happened, they could easily find the culprit in a short period of time, but now, with several Saintesses competing against one another, they keep fawning upon other countries instead of taking good care of their own country. What a joke!”

“Friend, you don’t have to flatter Izisha like that. It’s just a Silver Moon Tyrant Titan roaming in the wild. It’s not the one that destroyed Green Sprouts Island. It’s too early to be praising her now. I like Saintess Asha’ruiya more… she’s such a beauty with an outstanding temperament, not to mention how hot her body is.”

The crowd in the bar was engaged in loud discussions.

“Everyone, it doesn’t matter who we support. It’s worth celebrating whenever a Silver Moon Tyrant Titan is killed. Let’s drink!” the owner of the bar raised his malt beer to the whole crowd, who cheered.

“Speaking of which, who was the warrior that defeated the Silver Moon Tyrant Titan? I heard only four or five out of fifty members of a first-tier Hunter Group survived the attack…” a man who seemed to be a Hunter inquired.

“It was Tuis!”

“Is Tuis that good?”

“You mean the man who was dancing with the Saintess during the Snow Festival? He’s no ordinary person if he’s allowed to take part in the ceremony!”

“Here, let’s give the warrior Tuis a toast!”

“Hey, why aren’t you guys raising your drinks? You didn’t drink when we were giving Izisha a toast, and you aren’t drinking now either. What are you trying to tell us? Do you not want Crete to reclaim its peace?” A drunk man slammed his hand down on Mo Fan’s table.

Mo Fan was going to tell him to piss off, but Harper immediately raised his glass and drove the drunkard away with a few words.

Zhao Manyan and Mo Fan took a sip from their drinks.

“Mo Fan, you are in a pinch here. That Tuis is really a Tyrant Titan killer. Let’s not worry about how he found the Silver Moon Tyrant Titan after it ran away. The fact that he managed to kill the Silver Moon Tyrant Titan highlights the difference in strength between us. Why don’t you give him kowtows and admit you were wrong? Otherwise, you will seriously be separated from Ye Xinxia forever,” Zhao Manyan taunted Mo Fan.

“Bullshit, that Tyrant Titan only got away because we let it go. Tuis is only picking on the target we didn’t want. Our target is the culprit of Green Sprouts Island. The others aren’t our concern,” Mo Fan retorted instantly.

“There’s more bad news. Didn’t Tuis say he can locate other Tyrant Titans once he captures one? If he caught the Volcano Titan, doesn’t that mean he can track down the culprit of Green Sprouts Island?” Mu Bai recalled.
