Snow Lee smiled and said, "Welcome, I will show you the most beautiful scenery in the Milky Way Alliance, and also let you experience the warm hospitality of the Hail Cloud Alliance."
Snow Lee's gaze was still on the battlefield. Wang Zheng had finally reached this point. Could he proceed further?
She was really very curious about him. What's with this person? Were her hints not clear enough, or was she not charming enough?
After the battle, Wang Zheng did not even look for her. There was one time where she deliberately greeted Wang Zheng, but he just smiled and replied with a few polite words.
This made Snow Lee doubt her own charisma. Or maybe he was engrossed in preparing himself for the battle. Well, surely it was, as only boys with devotion and perseverance could attract her.
It was just that they were up against the Atlantis team, and the Solar System Federation team's odds of winning were at most one or two percent. However, Wang Zheng could seize his own victory.
Between the conversations, Wang Zheng and Bordia had drawn lots, and the Solar System Federation team would send out their player first.
The semi-final had officially began. The first player of the Solar System Federation team was... Wang Zheng!
Was this a duplicate of Arbiter's semi-final???
Using their leaders to fight and set the momentum?
This idea was not bad, but the question was, even if it was Wang Zheng fighting first, could he win?
Bordia laughed. Azhas, who was beside him, stood up, "Let me fight this round."
Bordia nodded because Azhas was enough in terms of strength. Not to mention that he had taken the initiative and requested to battle for this round. Obviously he had held the urge to fight for very long.
The factor to determine who would be the leader was not strength, but it was because Bordia was more familiar with humans. This was inside information. Some say that Azhas was actually the strongest in Atlantis. His Specter King's instantaneous attack power was much stronger than that of Phantom King's.
And Azhas also wanted to prove this point with this battle.
On the IG battlefield, only two people were qualified enough to let him fight. One was Wang Zheng, one was Olivios. Bordia already decided on Olivios, so Wang Zheng would be his prey.
The Solar System Federation team was neither disappointed nor complacent. They had two sets of battle strategy. They did not think that it would be the second one. Wang Zheng would be the first to battle, to fight and set the momentum, and win the first round. Then Lear or Achilles would win another round. If Wang Zheng could defeat Bordia in the first round, it would be best, but this was obviously not possible now, because Wang Zheng not only had to win but could not be injured at all. In the team battle, his power was indispensable. If it was Azhas, how would you put it, the difference was not too big, but it felt like Bordia might be stronger.
And in fact, Azhas entered the Sacred Hall by being the strongest mecha pilot in Atlantis during selections and had become a knight.
Of course, who was stronger in Atlantis was not important. Who could accept the gift of God was more important.
To fight for God was the highest glory of Atlantean warriors!
If God said that he would have to be victorious, then Azhas would have to win. Furthermore, the Prince was watching the battle, so he had to win for sure!
Azhas chose the Specter King. After choosing, he looked at Wang Zheng, "Select your strongest mech, I hope this battle will be an exciting one. I will use this battle to send the Solar System Federation team back home!"
Everyone knew very clearly that if Azhas won this round, this season's IG would end for the Solar System Federation team.
The Solar System Federation team's strategy could be guessed even using one's buttocks. This was considered as a last resort type of solution. But the precondition was that Wang Zheng had to win and conserve his strength. This was the prerequisite for the strategy
"The Wind God. Only the Wind God's movement could go up against Atlanteans' scary displacement ability."
"I think he should use the Golden Wheel Battle God. The Wind God is not as fast as the Specter King. He should kill him directly. Just go for a death match - either he dies or I die. Just play the odds."
...
"Will Wang Zheng have any awesome hidden tricks?"
"Damn it, you think he's a god?"
Meng Ao's heart was racing. He had heard that Wang Zheng had practiced using the Phantom King before the battle. Perhaps... ?
Everyone stared at Wang Zheng's hands, then the screen froze.
...
This was definitely a provocation, a mockery. This battle would certainly be epic.
During the semi-finals, in the previous round, when Olivios used the Hidden Dragon No. 1, everyone was already shocked. However, the Mayans were strong in terms of mecha development but not overall in every aspect, including their pilot's training. The Atlanteans were different. They understood the humans' Ability X, and there was no way to suppress their spiritual powers. In addition, they had rune-engraved mecha... Hercules...
Hercules versus the Specter King.
Was this overwhelming self-confidence, or an exaggerated overwhelming self-confidence?
Atlanteans were not easy to provoke, but when Azhas saw this choice of mech, his face flushed. Hercules. Why would he use this kind of rubbish to fight against his Specter King?
Wang Zheng's expression was extremely calm. This kind of calmness enraged Azhas.
This kind of rubbish mech was useless and was no different from using a vegetable to fight when faced with the Specter King. It would not be able to withstand even one round of attacks.
Just as Azhas was torn about this question, Wang Zheng turned towards the audience suddenly and raised his right arm."The Solar System Federation team will surely win!"
His voice was not particularly loud, but it was very domineering.
This was his declaration!
Two or three seconds later, laughter, applause, and all sorts of strange noises came from the audience. Aina knew very clearly that this was Wang Zheng's declaration to her.
He had finally reached this point.
The other one who knew was Huiyin. The little princess's eyes were twinkling. This was too romantic, like a fairytale, or even more than a fairytale.
She was inspired.
Wang Zheng was expressionless once again and walked directly into the elevator. The rest, he would use his fight to prove it.
The Solar System Federation team had no reaction. To Lear, words were simply nonsense and meaningless. Now, he was worried if Wang Zheng could win this round as planned.
At least they had reached this point. Lear did not intend to create any trouble, because this was also his goal, to defeat the Atlantis team!
Hercules appeared slowly, facing the Specter King, Atlantis' King series mecha. Such a thing had never happened before.
Everyone fell silent. This was the semi-finals; it was not just a game. And Wang Zheng was the Solar System Federation team's only chance of winning, yet he had chosen the Hercules.
Where did it come from?
It seemed to be produced by some unknown mecha firm on Earth. It was said that the company previously produced agricultural machinery.
This was such a mess.
Had he given up?
This seemed to be the only explanation.
The Specter King pulled out its rune sceptre, while the Hercules raised... a shovel.
Azhas looked at the shovel and had the impulse to go crazy. He could not let this idiot ruin his performance. He would use his maximum strength to get rid of his opponent instantaneously!
There was a gunshot and the two mecha started simultaneously. However, it was obvious the Specter King's speed was indeed much faster, much, much faster!
The Hercules was like an old ox pulling a cart on this stage. It was too embarrassing. What was Wang Zheng doing?
But to Wang Zheng, this was the best choice. The Wind God and Golden Wheel were no good against the Specter King. That type of increased speed would be an easier target for the Specter King. Contrary to what Azhas thought, choosing the Hercules was not taking him lightly. In fact, it was taking him seriously.
This was called "Beating many by understanding one's own strength".
Only the Specter King was no match for brute strength. It was, of the Atlantis King Series mecha, the mech with the most mysterious movement, the most brutal attack, and at the same time the strongest survival ability. Piloting this mech required extremely high levels of spiritual power. This type of spiritual power was equivalent to at least a human's Ability X mid rank C and above. This was a high pre-requisite for the Atlanteans to fulfil as well.
The speed of the Specter King was obviously faster than the Hercules by a whole level. Of course, a fight was not a race. It was that with the advantage of such speed, the Specter King could control the rhythm. He could adjust the speed any time to attack actively.
For the usual mecha, the preparation distance for close-range fights was 10 meters. The stronger ones could lengthen it to 15 meters. However, the Specter King had the longest attack range at 30 meters!
The two mecha neared, 30 meters of distance was between them... Instantly, the Specter King's runes glowed and the mech disappeared.
Peng... Peng...
On the ground it flashed twice continuously, and the next time it had already appeared in front of Hercules, its rune sceptre glowing brightly.
Like a laser yet not laser, light shot out. This was Atlantis' most distinctive mysterious energy. Ao Li combined energy and runes; controlled by spiritual power, it produced attack power. The explanation given by human scientists was that through the rune formation movements, it could produce energy other than its own energy attack that was especially effective for attacking energy shields. The extra pilot-targeted effects were especially a headache for humans. Faced against such attacks, only Ability X users had stronger resistance. The average pilot had no chance.
Peng peng peng peng...
Instantly, four streaks of light purple light shot out. The Hercules raised its ridiculous shovel and blocked the four attacks.
Just as the raised shovel was going to slam down, the Specter King had already disappeared and returned to its original position.
Wang Zheng immediately piloted the Hercules forward. Every mech wanted to maintain its best attack range, and to the Hercules, the best range was five meters.
Conventional mecha models were all like this. This was originally for the normal pilots' usage.
Azhas let out a hint of puzzlement. Was it because after his opponent blocked his attack, he did not seem to have much reaction?
But then, after thinking about it, that was possible. Wang Zheng was a C-rank Ability X user. His spiritual power was sure to be strong. Normal attacks were unlikely to have any effect.
Peng...
Facing the Hercules, who was charging towards him, the Specter King disappeared again. This time there was no preparation. This stunned all the viewers to the extreme. Human mecha could never perform such a displacement. Like the Wind God, the more recent and famous mech, it needed to throw out magnetic sources to control the gravitational force and use a series of movements continuously to achieve displacement. On the other hand, the opponent's Specter King was completely silent, warping one moment after another. It was as easy as eating rice.
Zhang Shan eyes were popping out already. His best move was two steps of spatial movement, but for the Atlanteans, it looked as though it was as simple as breathing. This was too f**king disgusting.
At the next moment, the Specter King appeared behind the Hercules, light flowing from the runes.
