Chapter - 3232

Tanner and the others also looked at Zeke.

Upon hearing Zeke's statement, everyone became alert.

"What is your purpose for approaching us?" Tanner questioned.

Zeke reassured them, "Rest assured, I have no intention of harming you. My identity is genuine. I did not deceive you. When I said I deceived you, I meant that my true talent lies in Tunneling, not cooking. I used Tunneling to get us out of there. Truth be told, my combat abilities are quite weak."

Edurne's group looked at each other in confusion. One of them said, "Tunneling? I recognized that move. It was Tunneling. I've seen it before. It allows the user to move freely in the dirt, like a fish in water."

"I can't believe I thought the God's innate skill was cooking. How foolish and naive of me," another commented.

Someone remarked, "Since you have Tunneling, you can burrow straight into the ground to save your life when danger strikes. This innate skill is quite fitting for someone like you, who is not strong. Good for you, brat."

However, Edurne still had doubts. "Quinlan, you've saved our lives several times now. Is this just a coincidence? I always feel like you're intentionally hiding your true strength."

Zeke gave a bitter smile. "I would actually like to hide my true strength, but what I've shown is indeed my real power. The fact that I saved you all before was purely coincidental."

Edurne nodded thoughtfully.

However, once the seed of doubt was planted, it was difficult to dismiss.

Suddenly, a howl echoed through the air, followed by the sound of rapid, heavy footsteps drawing closer and closer.

Edurne's group grew anxious once again. "It's Tiger King! Tiger King is coming! Could it be that Tiger King set us up earlier?"

Edurne cautiously said, "There's a high possibility. Earlier, when we were in the cave, the moment that black object flew over my head, I smelled a stench, the same one on Tiger King."

In an instant, a towering figure appeared. Tiger King, adorned with patterns, came into everyone's view.

Tiger King emitted an overwhelming murderous aura, leaving the few people around him struggling to breathe.

Edurne gathered her courage and asked, "Tiger King, what is the meaning of this? Are you the one who just attacked us?"

Tiger King smiled coldly. "I wasn't trying to attack you just now. I was merely testing you."

Edurne erupted in anger. "Testing us? What are you testing us for? You clearly want to kill us!"

"Heh, sorry. In my eyes, you all seem as weak as bugs and ants. I really don't have time to waste on you." Tiger King's gaze fell on Zeke. "I'm testing to see if this guy is just another worthless piece of trash like you or if he's the one I've been searching for. It turns out my hunch was right."

It turned out that Zeke was Tiger King's target.

Edurne scoffed, "Hmph, I know you demonic beasts hold a grudge against the Gods. However, he is now a friendly ally of the Kush Clan. Under the protection of my clan, you cannot harm him."

Tiger King spoke indifferently. "My issue with him has nothing to do with his identity as a God. Step aside quickly, or don't blame me for dealing with all of you."

The expression on Edurne's face changed repeatedly, but she managed to maintain a calm facade, "You're no different from us, also in the Sun and Moon Class. If we all join forces, it's uncertain who will win or lose."

"Is that so?" A faint voice suddenly echoed from the sky, followed by a figure descending gracefully, landing on Tiger King.

Tiger King, reduced to being someone's mount, was indeed displeased. Yet, he dared not show it.

The newcomer was none other than Theos himself!

Upon seeing Theos, Edurne's group felt despair.

They all knew that Theos was a Nebula-class warrior.

He was so strong that he could probably kill them with a single sneeze.
