Chapter 1175: To be stronger!

The battle between Lie Xin and Hu Ya was the most cautious. Zhang Shan was getting anxious as he watched from the crowd. He felt that Lie Xin was stronger than Hu Ya, and should not be as cautious as Hu Ya. Lie Xin was more warrior-like, and her techniques were more solid, so she should not be so cautious. Instead, she should be pressuring her opponent more.

Of course, Zhang Shan also knew that the observer was more perceptive. When you were in the middle of the battle, it was a totally different state of mind and feeling. Lie Xin was not wrong about her choice. The victory was not dependent on them, but rather between Wang Zheng and Jondi Lilick. Even if they had already gained an advantage, they might not dare to provide support. A wrong move could affect Wang Zheng’s rhythm. A difference in ability level meant a very different battle. It was not just a simple scenario of having more people

The only person who could provide support here was Achilles. However, Achilles was surprisingly engaged in a difficult battle now. The Maya’s Mantis was unfazed by the gravitational and repulsive forces of the Heavenly Dragon Knight. This was because it was not a traditional combat mech. Instead, it was a new type of energy battling style, a peculiar cross between the Mayans and the humans. Despite his superb skills, Achilles was left helpless. The ability of Universal Gravitational Force was useless in this fight.

Achilles was trying hard to shorten the distance. But the Maya’s Mantis’ intention was very simple too. If you dared to get closer, my Flaming Hell was not something to trifle with.

What worried Achilles most was that Hinrich could also use the Ode of Death Ripples that was similar to those of the Mayans, which could affect the others a lot. Hence, Achilles was stalking his opponent very closely, not allowing him any time or opportunity.

Except that this could not continue to drag on. The temperatures of the surrounding flames were getting hotter. Hinrich knew that this was a moment of opportunity for him. An Earth-rank warrior meant nothing at all. His battling mode was unprecedented.

When the power of the flames had accumulated to a certain degree, it would be his time to strike. Killing an Earth-rank warrior instantly was not impossible.

Boom…

The battlefield between the two suddenly became a flaming hell. Under such temperature, Achilles suddenly realized that his mech was turning red and had sparks. Rays of fire waves, like the magnetic pull, kept rushing towards the Heavenly Dragon Knight, and he was unable to dodge at all!

“Prepare to die!”

He was the main warrior of the Golden Wheel battle team!

At the moment of life and death, Achilles did not shy away. It was absolutely impossible to evade. The Heavenly Dragon Knight suddenly struck at the Maya’s Mantis. Hinrich was a little startled, and the Maya’s Mantis retreated a little. At this moment, Achilles’ Heavenly Dragon Knight, followed the momentum of the Universal Gravitational Force, struck towards him. Hinrich knew that the movement of the Maya’s Mantis was not good enough. If his opponent wanted to go out, then he was all up for it too.

The entire Maya’s Mantis presented a fiery burst of red. A bang followed the Mayan Scepter as it blasted at the Dragon Knight.

Achilles did not dodge. Dependent entirely on his Ability X, he could not perform a dodge, but the Gravitational Force formed a whirl. It instantly covered all the flames and took cover under its shield.

The two mecha were simultaneously shrouded in the compressed, flaming flames. The red energy made an ear-piercing sound… Buzz…

Boom…

The bursting flames was compressed to the extreme by the gravitational force, and exploded suddenly. Both the Heavenly Dragon Knight and the Maya’s Mantis that were shrouded under the shield shattered in an instant.

Achilles OUT!

Hinrich OUT!

The second cores of both teams had perished together. They were eliminated at the same time.

No one could have imagined this because everyone thought that Achilles would have the advantage. But no one could have known that the Maya’s Mantis was able to force Achilles to perish with his opponent. If Hinrich had reached Earth-rank level, then Achilles would perhaps have been the person who would be eliminated.

As the saying goes, far beyond the mountain stood taller mountains, and deep amongst the people hides the masters. After the SIG, Hinrich’s flaming energy move was bound to be the target of all the research of the special forces of the various countries.

Maybe Hinrich did not demonstrate the full potential of this strength. But what was great about him was that he had developed a new method of usage of the mech. To imply that it had extraordinary potential was not an exaggeration.

This explosion did not affect the other battlefields. They knew in their hearts each other’s strengths and weaknesses. However, with both Achilles and Hinrich eliminated, the horns of the decisive battle had sounded.

Although the Desolate Steel Beast had imprisoned the Giant mech, Mu Zheng’s tenacity and skills were pretty all-rounded. Although Ability X clearly had the advantage, as the battle progressed, Battuta began to show signs of fading, while Mu Zhen did not. The tenacity of the Giant mech was incomparable by the humans, especially against such a nimble Giant.

Having opened up a distance, Battuta took a deep breath. He could not afford to continue to drag on with this savage monster. He had to finish off his opponent before he collapsed from his peak period. Even if he could not gain an advantage, he could not put his teammates in more trouble.

The Desolate Steel Beast was sending tremours to the ground. Batuta’s spiritual strength was instantly elevated like the roars of the war drums. The power of the surrounding ground had been attracted to the Desolate Steel Beast and combined with the energy shield to become one. Mu Zhen knew that it was time to decide the outcome.

The power of wind was concentrated on the Big Alloy Blade. Mu Zhen had no intention of defending, as it was useless. He had to give it his all.

On the other end, Snow Li was chasing Millis to the end. Millis had used up her energy shield, but she had also entered the energy tower. Obviously, Snow Li had not accomplished her mission and she had also used up half her energy shield. Millis gave a sigh of relief as she watched the Ice Bird mech turn away. Once she had her energy recharged, she would pursue and attack. But for now, she would have to be patient.

Snow Li, who had turned away, suddenly turned around again. A condensed heavy smashing shot was fired.

Millis had already let her guard down by now, only to see a ray of heavy laser beam blasted towards her.

The defenses of the energy tower had weakened most of the laser, but it still hit the Runaway Amazon. Such power was insufficient to destroy the mech, but the full force of the Earth-rank Freezing Ability X was capable of killing Millis instantly.

Millis OUT!

On the other side, the Desolate Steel Beast was attacking Mu Zhen with full force just like an invincible wild beast. Mu Zhen was also swinging his big blade with full force, not defending, staking all his strength on the whirlwind blade.

The savage power ripped the energy shield apart, but the Desolate Steel Beast still had his eyes on this power and charged ahead without stopping.

Bang… The ground cracked from the movement. Battuta bellowed loudly. He was the strongest tank, attack!

Boom…

Mu Zhen’s power exploded. Mu Zhen could not withstand the full impact of the Earth-rank opponent. Boom…

The direct impact shattered the Giant mech into pieces.

Mu Zhen OUT!

Battuta looked to the sky and cried in jubilation. He felt damn good! No one had ever fought him this hard. Fantastic, fantastic…

Boom…

Mid way through feeling great, he was hit by a heavy shot. Battuta could only stare at the laser hitting at him. Swoosh…

The Earth-rank Ice power hit instantly.

On a rooftop faraway, the half-pushing Ice Bird was motionless. After two full but non-destructive consecutive shots, Snow Li’s spiritual and physical strength were practically strained. All she could do now was try and prevent herself from collapsing.

The continuous bursting sounds had also greatly stimulated the two “stable” scouts. Both were hit by each other’s magnetic source. Fire and ice completely counter-restrained each other. None could outdo each other. This was a common situation. What remained was to see who would be the last man standing.

The flaming power rose fiercely towards the sky, and the frosty ice shrouded down. Both of the Wind God mecha were charging towards each other. Both were conserving their power, not making the first strike. Both were waiting patiently, for a one shot to decide the outcome!

Ten meters… nine meters… eight meters… seven meters…

Ever since Luo Fei used the Circular Kick to instantly kill off a Wind God, everyone who used the Wind God had been secretly practicing it.

Six meters!

The instant when the mech was leaning slightly forward, both Wind Gods exploded and disappeared at the same time!

Ice Wind God, move instantly, circular…

… where was the opponent???

A chill overcame him. The fire Wind God appeared from behind, then a circular kick swept past.

Circular kick followed by teleportation

A full force attack followed by an instant teleportation. This would be much faster and almost impossible to dodge. But Hu Ya’s teleportation followed by a full force circular kick involved too many movements, and was way too slow.

Boom…

Lie Xin was definitely putting all her strength into this kick. The flames boke the frozen power and kicked the Wind God’s head.

Hu Ya OUT!

Bang! The Wind God landed. Lie Xin was drenched. She was breathing hard. There was no advantage at all. She was completely on par with her opponent, except that for the final push, she had a better understanding than her opponent. This could be credited to Wang Zheng’s understanding of the Wind God. But obviously Hu Ya had wrongly interpreted the kick that Lou Fei had made. The slightest difference led to a huge error, and this was what had decided the outcome. Luckily, this was not a battlefield. If it was, this would mean death.

Saruman Snake had gained a slight advantage. However, with Snow Li and Lie Xin’s current condition, the both of them were unlikely to go near the battlefield, as they would not be of much help.

In this short span of time, not only had Wang Zheng not died from the electric shocks, he had, in fact, adapted to them. His metal element of the Five Elements was insufficient. However, since metal arose out of earth, this was then a second hidden power that supported Wang Zheng. But this short moment had given Wang Zheng some realization. The power of the Five Elements was indeed something that one could not just figure out without any knowledge of the actual process. Confrontation was indeed the best way.

The Phantom King was switching and flying around the arena. Wang Zheng’s Plum Blossom Step also played a considerable role. As long as he resisted the power of lightning, Jondi Lilick was not necessarily stronger than Marzu and Gonzalez. It was useless!

Suddenly, the God of Warfare retreated and opened up a distance. Jondi Lilick felt that something was amiss too. This damn defense was getting stronger. Initially, the power of the lightning was still able to create some paralysis. But as time passed, it became easier. The peculiar steps still bluffed him. He could not kill him with a one-on-one fighting style. Those distorted movements simply did not conform to any of the military movements currently known to the Milky Way Alliance. It seemed to have a regular pattern but was actually totally irregular. It was not varied in frequency, it was more complicated. What kind of lunatic would waste his energy on this kind of stuff?

For Wang Zheng, with the improvement of the combat level, the likes of Leaning Landslide was like the fleeting clouds. On the other hand, the Plum Blossom Steps, which was initially despised, and with the most painfully devilish training, proved to be Wang Zheng’s life-saving move. Conventional dodging was dependent on speed and varied frequency. But the Plum Blossom Steps was about the combination of the details of the eight movements – point, turn, suppression, move, evade, fall, carry, and advance, and fused with the Five Elements’ three-dimensional movement. After a round of battle, Wang Zheng felt like he was about to float up.

Aside from the fact that Jondi Lilick could not comprehend it, even as a user himself who could appreciate the beauty of it, it was difficult to understand what kind of master could create such a magical pace.

Wang Zheng looked at Jondi Lilick and was feeling a little enthusiastic. Let’s try something with more suppressive force. If he could integrate the power of the Five Elements, then he would have a ninety percent chance of winning the battle!

It was precisely because Wang Zheng did not underestimate any of his opponents that he had to upgrade!
