Chapter 1388: 521
Zhou Tian was extremely angry, seeing that he was about to kill the Tyrannosaurus but just then, an accident occurred. Although the explosion at that moment didn’t damage Zhou Tian, it fatally destroyed the Magic Array he had used to trap the Tyrannosaurus— essentially, it had lost its original effectiveness.
Under normal circumstances, even if the Magic Array had been damaged, it wouldn’t have been a big deal for Zhou Tian. Given his deployment, he could repair the Magic Array anytime if he wished.
However, the problem now was that the explosion that destroyed the Magic Array had come too suddenly. Before that, Zhou Tian, feeling confident of victory, didn’t relax his surveillance on the Tyrannosaurus, but he didn’t pay much attention to other directions.
Thus, when Zhou Tian wasn’t paying attention to his surroundings, the sudden attack caught him off-guard.
Completely unprepared, Zhou Tian hadn’t even recovered from the situation when the Magic Array was destroyed. Naturally, under those circumstances, it had been considerably difficult for Zhou Tian to do anything.
Since Zhou Tian was unprepared, it was virtually impossible for him to intercept the Tyrannosaurus immediately. Therefore, when the Tyrannosaurus decided to flee, the chances of Zhou Tian stopping it were minimal.
In fact, just as the Tyrannosaurus was preparing to retreat, although Zhou Tian tried desperately to stop it, when the Tyrannosaurus began to charge outward, Zhou Tian couldn’t react in time. If the opponent chose to leave, Zhou Tian could only watch it escape.
In truth...
If he had a choice, Zhou Tian really wished the Tyrannosaurus would just flee. However, the problem was, at that moment, the Tyrannosaurus didn’t seem to have any intention to leave immediately.
The reason was simple. If the Tyrannosaurus had escaped from Zhou Tian’s Magic Array using its own ability earlier, it would almost certainly have chosen to flee when unable to defeat Zhou Tian.
But now, the Tyrannosaurus had not escaped the Magic Array using its own ability.
Nothing in the world occurs without cause, so if something happened, there must definitely be a reason for it.
Although Zhou Tian didn’t know what exactly was going on, based on the situation at that time, he could be certain that other living beings had appeared nearby. Because if there hadn’t been third-party interference, how could his Magic Array have been destroyed by a sudden explosion?
Previously, Zhou Tian might have suppressed the Tyrannosaurus with his absolute strength advantage, but with third-party interference, it became difficult for Zhou Tian to guarantee he could still suppress the Tyrannosaurus.
What made Zhou Tian most uneasy was the fact that based on the actions of the unknown third-party releasing the Tyrannosaurus by destroying the Magic Array, the third-party was at least a stranger who was displeased with him, and more likely, a friend of the Tyrannosaurus.
Considering the situation at the time, if the third-party truly was a member of the Tyrannosaurus’s side, then for certain, the powerful being in the shadows would join the Tyrannosaurus against him. Judging by their ability to destroy the Magic Array in one strike, their strength was undoubtedly at least as formidable as the Tyrannosaurus. In such an environment, Zhou Tian, who originally could suppress his opponent, now found himself worried about his own safety instead.
Should he be surrounded by two beings as strong as him, even with Zhou Tian’s ability, he might fall.
Thus, given the situation, just as Zhou Tian was about to defeat a powerful enemy, the interruption indeed made him wish that the Tyrannosaurus would flee quickly. Only then would Zhou Tian be able to face the hidden enemy calmly later on, and he didn’t believe that he’d lack the ability to contend against such a powerful enemy.
Unfortunately, although Zhou Tian was inclined to let the Tyrannosaurus go, the creature itself showed no intention of leaving.
The Tyrannosaurus wasn’t stupid—what Zhou Tian could think of, the Tyrannosaurus could likewise conceive. Unlike Zhou Tian, upon discovering there might be another powerful being in the shadows, the Tyrannosaurus naturally hoped to join forces with them to defeat Zhou Tian. frёeωebɳovel.com
Thus, considering the situation then, the Tyrannosaurus resolutely chose to stay in place. Seeing the Tyrannosaurus’s reaction, Zhou Tian was inwardly anxious, yet he had no way to handle his opponent.
