“Wang Zheng? This is the biggest joke. Saruman Snake is already in a bad state. If Wang Zheng can still advance to the finals, I…” said Qian Xiaodie.
“What about you?” Lin Huiyin followed up. The moment when everyone was cheering for Wang Zheng, Huiyin felt that she was standing at her own concert. There were so many similarities between the two of them. They could conquer their own stage and world.
“Your Highness, you’re using radical method. This is definitely impossible. Sister Ruoliu, isn’t this correct?” said a smiling Qian Xuedie.
“Don’t change the topic. If all of you want to make a bet, then make it fast. Let’s add a little more excitement.” Ouyang Ruoliu was also adding fuel to fire.
“If Wang Zheng wins this, I will grant him a request. Didn’t he ask Donger for a favour the other time? I could fulfil similar conditions.” Qian Xiadie said with a smile. “However, my dear Princess, if you lose, you must let me kiss you!”
Qian Xuedie pointed to her lips and gave a naughty smile.
She did not manage to frighten off Huiying this time. “Deal!”
“Count me in too. I’m betting on Sword Shield Rose. After all, Lin Feng is handsome guy,” said Ouyang Ruoliu.
“This is not right of the both of you. I’m on Wang Zheng’s side. He is, after all, the man I had a blind date with,” said Yuan Donger.
The three were speechless. What did this have to do with that date? However, two versus two was not a bad deal.
In the battlefield, the Wind God was closing in. Although the Matrix Shot was formidable, the movements of the Wind God and the use of the temporary shield rendered Eve Litt’s precise shooting useless. Admittedly, she was very precise. But a sniper would not be able to display his strength in such a battle.
The distance between the two mecha was just over ten meters now. Eve Litt decisively gave up the lasers.
Almost instantaneously, Luo Fei’s Ability X exploded. The overwhelming pressure enveloped Eve Litt. Luo Fei, who is Earth-rank two warrior, was undoubtedly one of the best warriors in this SIG. This was not a battle where Lin Feng could clown around.
Luo Fei did not care if others valued him or not. It would be best if they all ignored him. He liked real results.
Luo Fei’s entire attention was focused on Eve Litt. The Wind God had arrived and struck the laser hard.
Bang…
With an explosion, the laser sword was caught on a huge flame shield. Eve Litt activated the energy shield of the Holy Light Pioneer. Unlike the Knight of the Holy Light, the Holy Light Pioneer had a small, round shield. However, this round shield was covered by Eve Litt’s Ability X, so it was burning with flames. It was a flame shield.
Luo Fei felt a burning sensation on his body and retreated instantly. Flame ability?
Eve Litt did not panic at all and did not retreat. The Holy Light Pioneer’s flames shot up to the sky. The surging power flowed out. Her spiritual power was equal to that of Luo Fei.
Earth-rank two…
Those who were not happy with Aslan were making noises too. In fact, they were totally upset. A sniper, and a female one. As it turned out, she was also an Earth-rank level two warrior. Was she allowing her male compatriots a chance for survival?
Lie Xin was overcome with a sense of nervousness. She had felt that she was quite capable. However, when Eve Litt used her power, she instantly felt a great pressure.
This great difference in strength caused her to feel suffocated.
Wang Zheng smiled. “Advancing from Earth-rank one to Earth-rank two is actually easier. The key is the first threshold.”
Lie Xin nodded and rolled her eyes at Wang Zheng. “I’m not that vulnerable. Understanding is the key to flames!”
Wang Zheng smiles slightly. “This person’s understanding of flames is rather good. If Luo Fei is not careful, he might suffer.”
The laser sword of the Holy Light Pioneer was drawn from its sheath and struck towards Luo Fei. In an instant, the two mecha were battling against each other, going back and forth. Eve Litt had been training.
“Eve Litt’s close quarters combat is rather good too. But the problem is still obvious. Upon closer inspection, it is clear that this is not her best skill. Once engaged in a fierce battle, she will still be suppressed by Luo Fei,” said Jondi Lilick. A real professional could tell the difference as soon as he took a sniff.
“Able to do close combat” and “skilled at close combat” were two different concepts.
“I believe that Captain Lin Feng has his plans.”
“I believe so too. But I wonder what tactics he has planned for. Or maybe he wants to create more excitement for everyone by gifting a win for the Dynasty battle team?” said Jondi Lilick.
This was a possibility too. Think about this: being in the semi-finals was enough to prove the true strength of the Dynasty battle team. To be safe, they could just let the dangerous Luo Fei win and hold on to the team battle. That way, Aslan would ensure a safer path to the finals. This was truly not giving their opponents any opportunity.
Except… wasn’t this a little too wretched???
This was what the majority of the people of Aslan were unwilling to accept. Even though they wanted to win, they wanted to win with moral honesty.
Just like Saruman Snake. Just like Soulless. Even though they had lost, they had fought with all their strengths. There were no regrets.
However, Luo Fei did not enjoy as much of an advantage in the battlefield as many though he would have. His opponent’s foundation was very solid. There was no differentiation between male and female in a battlefield. Luo Fei was well aware of his situation. All his killer moves had been exposed. Luo Fei highly suspected that he had been targeted by Lin Feng, so he did not dare to try to fight too hard. If he gave his best effort and was restrained by his opponent, it would definitely spell the end for him.
Flame abilities were not new. An Earth-rank two warrior’s strength could not provide Luo Fei any suppression.
Weak abilities could be used any time. The opponent was within sight. One strike would probably be enough to kill. But Luo Fei had an uneasy feeling that something was amiss.
It seemed that the opponent was waiting for him to strike. What was really frightening about the Sword Shield Rose was that most of their abilities had yet to be exposed. This was the greatest problem that their opponents were facing. Luo Fei had no choice but to be cautious.
His Ability X was activated. He chose to use the safest method – to absorb his opponent’s spiritual power. He need not devour the entire power, as he still had to fight in the team battle. He just needed to give a little suppression, then launch a deadly attack properly.
Anyone would be powerless when confronted with such a devouring power. It was no different for Eve Litt. Continuous output of spiritual power was necessary in order to maintain the current confrontation. Otherwise, once the opponent had complete control of the situation, she would be rendered helpless. Luo Fei’s ability was really good at injuring people imperceptibly, which was very deadly. The only way to fight with Luo Fei was for him to use his weaker ability. By then, it would be difficult to predict who would be the winner.
In terms of combat skill, Eve Litt was indeed pretty good. But it was merely passive confrontations.
“Eve Litt is way too careful. She is very similar to the captain in this aspect,” said Qian Yunzhuo with a smile.
“Being stable is the correct thing to do. Those who have climbed up from the bottom have very strong tenacity,” said Ouyang Chuanyun.
Lin Feng looked at the two carelessly. It was obvious that he wanted the two to pay a little more attention to their words.
Even if it was an easy task, due respect should be given to the opponent. Was it a pretence? Yes, it was. A little pretence was always needed. Not everyone could indulge, at least not him.
Lou Fei felt his body heating up suddenly. Initially, he was not too concerned. But by the time he realised it, he had realised that a problem had arisen.
The Wind God mech suddenly closed in. His body temperature was rising continuously.
Eve Litt did not give chase. “You have been infected by my Fire Poison. Your best option now is to withdraw from the competition and seek treatment.”.
