In a desperate assault, the God of War unleashed an astonishing burst of power. In almost an instant, he was upon the Mechanical Tutor, brandishing his weapon with the intent to deal a divine blow. However, unexpectedly, the Mechanical Tutor generated a shield right in front of herself.
A massive amount of High-Dimensional Data absorbed the divine attack, and in turn, reflected the force back at the God of War. The backlash sent the God of War flying through the air. If not for the mountain behind him breaking his fall, he might have been thrown even farther.
"Is this all you've got? Seems your previous defeat wasn't just a fluke. Even without the intervention of the great [Fool], you'd still be unfit to retain your divine seat," the Mechanical Tutor sneered, her tone dripping with disdain.
Furious, the God of War rose from the ground. "The battle is just beginning! Don't think you can defeat me so easily!"
With those words, the God of War gathered all his strength, enlarging his figure to five times his previous size. Seeing this, the Mechanical Tutor responded in kind. She expanded, making the mechanical components that formed her body even more colossal. The Mechanical Tutor's robotic form now towered even higher than before.
The two giants clashed in a direct confrontation, not far from where Jeremy and Ritchie were situated.
As the Mechanical Tutor and the God of War battled, Jeremy was using his skills and tools to help Ritchie recover from the negative effects.
"Can you hear me? If you can hear me, take this item from my hand," Jeremy instructed, pulling a tool from his pocket that was capable of blocking mental contamination.
He hoped Ritchie would grip the item, as it should help alleviate his headache. Following Jeremy's guidance, Ritchie, though still dazed, took hold of the tool. The moment he grasped it, the intense pain in his head quickly subsided.
"I feel much better now! What's the situation? Are we still in serious danger?" Ritchie asked, no longer suffering from the agonizing headache. He even had the energy to focus on their current predicament.
In response to Ritchie's question, Jeremy spoke with a hint of worry.
"Our situation is terrible right now! The Mechanical Tutor's strength far exceeds my expectations. Even if the God of War and I work together, we might not be able to defeat her."
While Jeremy was saying this, Ritchie glanced over at the battlefield not far away. After watching for a moment, he concluded that the God of War was on the verge of defeat.
"So, what should we do now? Should we step in and help the God of War? Maybe if the two of us act, we can assist him in driving the Mechanical Tutor back." Ritchie wasn't ready to give up just yet.
But Jeremy shook his head and said, "Even if we manage to push the Mechanical Tutor back temporarily, we still won't be able to escape her pursuit. I think we need to find another way to get out of this situation."
Seizing the opportunity while the Mechanical Tutor was preoccupied with restoring the warped space, Jeremy dashed through the portal and appeared right next to her. Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out the Dark Core.
Although Jeremy didn't fully understand the connection between dark powers and High-Dimensional Data, he had a hunch that the Dark Core could be used to restrain the Mechanical Tutor.
With everyone watching, Jeremy hurled the Dark Core directly at the Mechanical Tutor. As if drawn by the Mechanical Tutor's energy, the Dark Core flew straight into the crevices of her massive mechanical body.
The moment the Dark Core made contact with the Mechanical Tutor's mechanical body, a surge of dark powers flooded into her system. Although the Mechanical Tutor desperately tried to suppress the spread of the dark powers, Jeremy interfered with her efforts. Using his *King of Time and Space* ability, Jeremy continued to distort the space around the Mechanical Tutor.
As the spatial distortion intensified, even the High-Dimensional Data couldn't penetrate the warped space. In this way, Jeremy successfully sealed the Mechanical Tutor and her control over the High-Dimensional Data within the distortion.
Jeremy quickly returned to Ritchie and the God of War.
"I've trapped the Mechanical Tutor! There's no need to waste any more time fighting her. Let's head to the upper levels of the Tower of Exile right away," Jeremy declared.
Both the God of War and Ritchie were stunned by Jeremy's statement. Ritchie immediately asked, "Shouldn't we take this chance to defeat the Mechanical Tutor? If we don't deal with her now, she'll surely come after us."
Hearing this, Jeremy sighed.
"I want to defeat the Mechanical Tutor too! But with our current strength, it's impossible! Just trapping her has already taken everything we've got. We need to keep moving forward! If we cause greater damage to the Tower of Exile, the power that Mechanical Tutor and her backers from [the White Tower] rely on will weaken. Once that happens, we can destroy all of our enemies."
After saying this, Jeremy opened a portal leading to the upper levels of the Tower of Exile. Though it was a dangerous move, Jeremy had no other choice. There was no longer time to ascend the tower slowly by using the stairs. He had to reach the upper levels of the Tower of Exile as quickly as possible.
The God of War immediately supported Jeremy's decision.
"I agree with Jeremy. Staying here to fight the Mechanical Tutor is a waste of time and does us no good. Our true enemy is [the White Tower]. Before we confront [the White Tower], we need to conserve our strength."
With the God of War's persuasion, Ritchie quickly agreed to Jeremy's plan. The three of them passed through the portal, rapidly heading to the upper levels of the Tower of Exile.
Shortly after they disappeared through the portal, the Mechanical Tutor managed to undo the spatial distortion surrounding her.
