Chapter 1257 - The Lonely Battle

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

“The warriors from both sides are taking to the stage. The team battle of the second semi-finals of the SIG is about to begin. Representing Atlantis’ Sea Queen battle team are Ander Lucia, Moria, Helen Luck, Papilsagand Santander. Representing Saruman Snake is… Captain Wang Zheng!”

Jondi Lilick stopped for a moment. “Just as everyone has seen, because of the line-up issues, according to the rules, they are not allowed to inject new team members, so Saruman Snake is starting the last battle with Wang Zheng alone!”

A one against five situation had appeared in a formal team battle in the SIG. Everyone had gone crazy. The cheers were resounding. This sort of encouragement had transcended beyond reason. Almost eighty percent of the people were rooting for Saruman Snake. Of course, twenty percent of the people were still supporting the Sea Queen battle team. The great and glorious Atlantean team would not lose to a human from Earth.

The cameras were now on the members of the Sea Queen battle team. The Atlanteans were no longer calm. There was a look of determination on everyone’s faces. Although Wang Zheng was alone and although he was carrying injuries all over, they could not let their guards down. They had already come this far, they needed to strike their opponent with the strongest blow.

Right now, the one who truly had no way out was the Atlanteans.

Once again, Wang Zheng had brought the Atlanteans to the edge of the cliff.

Jasper, Gabre, and Laurel had very unusual relationships with Wang Zheng. They could be considered familiar strangers. In fact, there was not much empathy. However, this time, they felt that power here. Being around someone like him, all things considered, they would definitely not be lonely.

“Brother Yan, does Big Brother have the confidence?” Jasper felt that he was no different from an elementary school kid. He had lost all his sense of judgement. He could feel the tsunami of sounds from both inside and outside the arena. Honestly, he would have been paralysed the moment he stepped up there. What kind of will and determination would it require?

Yan Xiaosu was focused on the arena. Looking at the Rune Warrior, he knew that Wang Zheng felt very blessed now. In the yester years, when they both laid by the river, drinking beer and errant, had he realised his dreams?

Perhaps it was still ongoing, but the journey was the most blessed. This was the stage that Wang Zheng yearned for.

It was victory simply by being here!

He did not answer because the battle had begun amidst the loud cheers.

No one had anticipated that Wang Zheng’s Rune Warrior would make the first move. Although, after a short treatment and rest, it was obvious that Wang Zheng’s spiritual waves were not very stable. He needed to make the pre-emptive strike first!

He would have to use his state as an advantage and dispose of his opponents one by one with the highest efficiency!

As soon as Wang Zheng started his charge, two Rune Warriors rushes forward, creating intense collision. The lights shone brightly. A string of Runic Matrices shrouded the mecha of the Atlanteans.

Two vanguards charged head on. The other three back-ups used their Runic Matrices, attacking and interfering. If it had been a full-strength Wang Zheng, it would have been useless. However, given his current condition, Wang Zheng could only evade.

Wang Zheng’s spiritual power exploded. With C-level and above spiritual powers, he could not put any pressure on the five Atlanteans. Except his understanding was much higher.

Bang, bang, bang, bang… Bang, bang, bang, bang… Bang, bang, bang, bang… Bubble bubble…

Ander Lucia and Papilsag were leading the charge. The two Rune Warriors continuously interchanged their positions, taking turns blocking Wang Zheng’s fierce attacks. Only in the battlefield did they understand the horror of Wang Zheng’s pressure. It seemed that this guy could fall any time, yet they could not defeat him easily. Ander Lucia understood this as soon as they met, so he quickly adjusted the battle strategies.

“Change positions; Moira, Helen Luck!”

Suddenly, a Space Aisle switched over.

The two Rune Warriors behind came in to replace them, and Ander Lucia and Papilsag backed off.

Tamira — Warrior of Holy Light!

Soylas — Quadruple Thunder!

Porasta — Blessings of Ares!

Haemil — Space Aisle!

Morro Mons — Imprisonment Cage

Kalamuso – Stiff Mire!

Bodalias — Holy Prayer!

The two that were substituted immediately opened up all their Runic Matrices and blessed themselves. At the same time, they prepared the Seismic Energy Cannon to provide back-up whenever necessary.

Ander Lucia was the vice-captain. His strategy was very clear. Wang Zheng was a spent force now. He could not afford to let the battle drag on. But he was also very certain that Wang Zheng’s struggling strike would still be very dangerous. Perishing together was a possibility. Hence, he chose the most reliable method.

Gradation depletion!

“Exchange places, Papilsag, Santander!” said Ander Lucia in a low voice. “Everyone, remember, don’t attack rashly. Gradation depletion. His physical strength and spiritual power cannot hold out for too long. Maintain a good formation and Space Aisle. Don’t take on the attacks directly. Enhance the usage of Karamso!”

Everyone was dumbfounded. They were amazed by the tactics of the Atlanteans… They were trying to cage Wang Zheng alive!

This was a classic spider web tactic. The five Rune Warriors had actually given up their advantage. They did not seem to have the intention to finish off Wang Zheng. Instead, they were going to out last him by using the protracted Runic Matrices to continuously deplete Wang Zheng. They were trying to completely exhaust Wang Zheng.

Every charge made by Wang Zheng was met with the sieges of two Rune Warriors. When the Atlanteans decided to defend, with Wang Zheng’s current state, a forceful breakthrough would be very difficult. Besides, it was not difficult to see that Wang Zheng might not be able to use his compound power, let alone his lethal Atomic Blasting power.

It was already amazing that he could maintain such spiritual power and energy. The miracle was slipping away from Wang Zheng and Saruman Snake with him facing five Atlantean warriors who were waiting for him to tire himself out.

Jondi Lilick could not help but sigh. “The composure of the Atlanteans has decided the final outcome. If they had used their numerical advantage to suppress Wang Zheng, then Wang Zheng would definitely have gone all out and fought it out with them, and he could have very certainly created a miracle. However, the Atlanteans had chosen to adopt a depletion tactic, slowly dragging Wang Zheng into the abyss of defeat!”

Si Jiali felt it too. In fact, the entire audience in the arena and those who were watching the live broadcast could all see it too. Could you imagine this: five warriors who had C-level and above spiritual power facing off with Wang Zheng

Without a doubt, this was the most reliable tactic. However, everyone was feeling a sense of haplessness.

Bang…

Once again interchanging. Wang Zheng managed to evade a Seismic Energy Cannon but was targeted by Papilsag’s sword. While he managed to defend against it with his Rune Shield, Wang Zheng could not evade Ander Lucia’s kick.

Bang…

The five Atlantean warriors did not give chase. Under Ander Lucia’s instructions, they formed a five-ring formation.

Mandala Bratis con Ide — Group Seismic Energy Cannon!

Boom, boom, boom…

The Runic Matrix was aimed directly at Wang Zheng’s Rune Warrior. Like perilous waves, the frantic energy blasted at Wang Zheng.

The sky was covered in blue energy beams, completely blocking Wang Zheng’s path.

A golden Runic Matrix appeared. His lack of physical strength was more serious than he had imagined. The short rest had brought even more tiredness. His body’s reaction time and use of his spiritual power were a beat slower. There was insufficient time to evade.

The raging energy blasted out.

RUMBLE… Rumbling…

The first layer of the energy protection wall was busted. Wang Zheng’s Rune Warrior was slammed straight into the second layer of the energy protection wall before stopping.

After a round of Seismic Energy Cannon had finished, the breathing of the five Atlantean warriors had also become shorter and more rapid.

The tactic had been successful.

The energy ripples began to disperse slowly. The Rune Warrior shrunk at the corner. But Wang Zheng stood up still. Except he had not managed to block all the Runic Matrices. His right hand could not take it. The cast on the right arm of the Rune Warrior was already broken. Wang Zheng could no longer feel the pain. He could no longer move his right arm.

With only one arm left, the Rune Warrior slowly moved towards the arena. The sound of crackling dominated the entire arena.

All of a sudden, the scene looked rather desolate. The Atlanteans had no intention of giving Wang Zheng any chance. If Wang Zheng would not surrender, they would not go easy on him.

The Sea Queen battle team was in battle mode with great strength and calm tactics. They would not give Wang Zheng any chance at all!

Atlantis’ Sea Queen battle team was the end of the line for Saruman Snake!

Everyone felt a sense of haplessness at this very moment. Was this the end of the road for a hero…

If these five people had met Wang Zheng when he was at his full potential, they would definitely not be his match. Even if it was five against one, they would still be trashed. This was a man that could defeat an A-level warrior!

“What a pity. The overall strength of Saruman Snake has dragged Wang Zheng down after all. Honestly, if a group was selected from the traditional powerful nations and they were paired up with Wang Zheng, he would be invincible.”

Jondi Lilick lamented. Regardless of whether it was Arbiter, Manalasuo, the Dark Empire, Lya Sphinx, the Hail Cloud Alliance, or whoever else, Wang Zheng would definitely not be so desolate.

Jondi Lilick probably spoke the thoughts of most people. From the highlights, Wang Zheng was mostly battling alone. No further proof of Wang Zheng’s strength was necessary by the mere fact that he was facing an almost impossible mission alone. He had achieved the ultimatum of what any captain could.

Off stage, Mu Zhen, Lie Xin, and Snow Li bowed their heads. What Jondi Lilick had said was true. Mu Zhen clenched his fists tightly. He had represented countless of giants to be here to help Ada. But in the end, he was still a burden and could not do anything.

It was dead silent both on the inside and outside of the Knights of Light arena. They had expectations, but no one blamed Wang Zheng for not winning, because he could persist till now.

Meanwhile, at Ares College, tears were flowing down from countless people. Jondi Lilick’s words struck a chord in their hearts. The decline of Earth, their weakness. Was there no one else on this Earth?

They could only watch Wang Zheng battle alone. They had placed all their hopes on Wang Zheng. But Wang Zheng was but one person. He had his times of helplessness too.

They looked at the magnificent Atlantean Runic Matrices shining brightly. Then they looked at Wang Zheng moving forward, alone. He was still moving forward, even though death was just ahead of him.
