Tempest of the Stellar War Chapter 792

Chapter 791 - Deathmatch on the Icy Plains

Translator: Abyssruler  Editor: Lucas

Bartley was indeed thinking of returning to meet up with the main army. He wanted to continue being the leader of the pirates and enjoyed his life. However, he realised that there were already people who had caught up behind him.

Wang Zheng did not intend to let Bartley off. On the contrary, this leader of the pirates might be the only chance of reversal in this battle. He would rather depend on himself than others as he couldn’t count on the Hail Cloud Alliance’s regular soldiers.

Wang Zheng was a maintenance technician and knew about the principles underlying mecha construction very clearly. This type of modification might allow the mech to burst forth and move away explosively for an instant but the energy still came from the mech. It wasn’t equipped with any additional device. Therefore, the other party wouldn’t have gotten too far away.

A typical person would have already given up as the target had already disappeared within sight. However, Wang Zheng wouldn’t. He was just like the king of the wolves on the icy plain as he pursued his prey relentlessly. Moreover, Wang Zheng’s speed and stamina were both better than Bartley.

Both of them were of Earth Grade. However, Wang Zheng knew clearly that Bartley wasn’t as good as Heaven. Heaven had been executing various missions to maintain his form. However, Bartley had probably been corrupted badly by alcohol, women and wealth. With this judgment in mind, Wang Zheng was even less likely to let this guy off.

Bartley had also not expected this guy to be still pestering him. What he was afraid of wasn’t Wang Zheng but those ice beasts. The battle prowess of these ice beasts was really high and they weren’t afraid of dying. He had not expected someone from Elite Academy was able to actually control these ice beasts.

However, there was a point where he was wrong. Wang Zheng couldn’t control the ice beasts. If he could, he wouldn’t have to spend so much effort. It was just that the ice beasts were close to him and treated him as their kind. Moreover, the ice beasts hated humans innately and especially pirates which had an aura of oppression around them. If they had entered the territory of the ice beasts, it would be equivalent to seeking their own deaths.

However, the ice beasts didn’t follow Wang Zheng and Wang Zheng still had to depend on himself. Conqueror α could already see the Wargod mech in front of him.

The speed of the other party was indeed decreasing. Wang Zheng accelerated with all his might. Conqueror α’s speed on the ice left a trail akin to an icy dragon.

Bartley knew that he couldn’t run away and might as well just stop. From his vision, he also saw that behind the mech, there weren’t any of those disgusting ice beasts.

If it was just this brat, things would be different.

The Wargod mech unsheathed its beam saber. Bartley regulated his breathing and started to gather his Ability X. If he didn’t get rid of this kid, he would really be embarrassed. Only with his head could he expunge the shame he experienced.

The Conquerer was sprinting all along and had unsheathed its beam saber. Seeing that the other party had already given up on escaping, a smirk also appeared on the edge of Wang Zheng’s mouth. What a great opportunity for him to train and test himself!

Wang Zheng’s advancement was entirely because he had driven himself into a fatal condition and emerged alive subsequently. This wasn’t the first time and wouldn’t be the last.

The Conqueror leapt into the sky. In mid-air, cold rays were emanating from the beam saber in all direction. As Wang Zheng slashed the saber down, Bartley struggled for a moment. His beam saber shot out golden rays as his Wargod advanced abruptly and explosively.

Boom…

The Conqueror was knocked back and the Wargod was pushed back to its original position.

The other party was no doubt of Earth Grade. The other party’s Ability X had invaded the internals of the mech directly and almost broke through Wang Zheng’s defense. Without a doubt, the Metal element of the 5 minor elements had the most destructive and sharp aura and was the strongest in a straight up offence. If this wasn’t Aisbotan, Bartley would have been at an advantage by now.

Bartley was also surprised. He had used 80% of his strength in that strike and yet it couldn’t break through the other party’s defense.

From the feeling of his aura, this kid was at most at the boundary of C rank and had not entered B rank. Yet he was able to withstand such a head-on collision. However, Bartley soon understood that they were in Aisbotan, the perfect environment for Ice attribute Ability X users.

If he was depending on the help of the external world, Bartley would like to see how long he could last.

Bartley’s senses truly didn’t sense any ice beasts and he was finally able to relax. This kid had probably lured them into the territory previously without any preparations and the ice beasts were only reacting to those with the intent to attack and kill. Thinking about it now, how could these monsters be controlled by a human? He had really scared himself.

After thinking about it, he also felt a little regretful. If he had kept his killing intent, his own guards would not have perished. This had caused him to be even more infuriated.

The Wargod erupted. The recovery speed of an Earth Grade master was clearly faster than Wang Zheng. The golden layer on the beam saber seemed to be burning. Metal Ability X was a little bit special and there were few circumstances where there would be a counter for this power. Although they were in Aisbotan where the Ice attribute Ability was stronger, Bartley felt a greater urge to squash the other party at the thought that he was teased by a kid.

Rumble…

Two mech warriors were fighting intensely on the endless snowfield. Bartley truly lived up to his name. He was a master before becoming a pirate. After becoming a pirate, he had experienced over 100 major and minor battles and could definitely be considered to be highly experienced. His strikes were more ruthless and his moves were unconventional but lethal. This was different from a typical sparring session between students or soldiers where they would be careful. Pirates would not care about it.

Their battle experiences were all built from killing.

Among offensive skills, Metal element Ability X was the sharpest and most invasive. Together with an advantage in Ability X, Bartley started to gain the upper hand. Physical techniques users were most afraid to encounter this type of Metal attribute Ability users. This wasn’t simply a contest of who were stronger. Metal element Ability X was highly invasive and one had to guard against it. If they didn’t, they would die even faster if they were invaded by the Ability X.

Luckily, Wang Zheng’s Primordial Regression Technique had such defensive effects. Otherwise, he would be clearly at a disadvantage.

He was using guerilla warfare technique when battling Heaven. However, in this icy and snowy place, there wasn’t any way to use a guerilla techniques. The other fact was that neither Bartley nor Wang Zheng had the time.

“Kid, your partners have been captured. One of them was called Ai Xiaolu. That girl looked rather young and tender. Do you know how I would deal with her?”

As he fought, Bartley started to incite the opponent. He realised that this kid was relatively hard to deal with. Although he had the advantage in Ability X, his Ability X did not have the expected effects. This brat seemed to be using some method to withstand the invasion of his Ability X. Nonetheless, Bartley was too experienced in battle and had other ways to disrupt the mind of the other party.

Wang Zheng didn’t say a word. He couldn’t determine if what the other party said was true or fake. This was because there was a high possibility that it was true. After blocking the opponent attack with the beam saber, a round of fresh attacks started launching towards Wang Zheng. Wang Zheng moved his body aside and after taking a gliding step, he slashed down backhandedly. Bartley’s Wargod did not have any intention to dodge. Metal attribute element Ability X users were the least afraid of clashing head on with their opponent. Every contact was beneficial to them.

“I will strip this young and tender girl and trample on her entire body. After which… When I had enough of her, I would reward her to my subordinates and made her continue living in misery and happiness as she moans. Did you know how many strong-willed girls had eventually become broken? Hahahaha.”

Although he was impetuous while speaking, he was striking even faster. This was because Bartley was really thinking of such lewd things. This made him very excited and his body was filled with power. His domineering aura of his Metal ability became even more fearsome.

Wang Zheng had already been suppressed till he could only defend. Although Wang Zheng had the experience of going against an Earth Grade master, it was entirely different from the head-on clash now. During a mecha battle, other than a contest of control over the mecha, it would be the contest of Ability X. However at this level, due to the invasive destructive power of Ability X on the other pilot, control over one’s mecha had become secondary. Nonetheless, the control of an Earth Grade master wouldn’t be bad. The basic battle techniques of mecha weren’t as complicated as one might imagined. It was especially so in practical battle where the simpler and more ruthless the better.

Those elegant cooperations during competition would likely not be able to be executed in practical battles.

Bartley’s beam saber slashed down one after another. It was simple and direct and the move was quick. It was clear that he didn’t want to give Wang Zheng the time to catch his breath. He was also chattering and insulting Ai Xiaolu non-stop with various lewd words. A teenager couldn’t just take the insults without being agitated.

It was clear that Wang Zheng’s strikes were getting faster but they were no longer as steady as before. Bartley didn’t have to know it but could easily guess that with such strong strength, he must be one of the top in this batch of students. He couldn’t be unfamiliar with Ai Xiaolu. The chances of conflict between a guy and girl were very low. They might even be interested in each other.

As long as Wang Zheng had started attacking, the opportunity would come. This kid’s foundation was more solid than he could imagine.

Wang Zheng’s frantic counterattack seemed to have an effect. Bartley seemed to be running out of stamina and was even retreating.

Wang Zheng’s Conqueror mech leapt into the sky as he growled in mid-air. In mid-air he started to gather his Ability X on his beam saber and was preparing to finish the match with Bartley. Wang Zheng’s imposing manner seemed just like the roar of the tiger and howling of the dragon.

A smirk was revealed on the side of Bartley’s smile. A teenager was a teenager after all. The only important thing on the battlefield was to stay on alive. All other things were illusory.

His beam saber started shining brightly. He had totally disregarded Wang Zheng’s beam saber and had lunged directly at the operating cabin of the conqueror mech.

Did he want to perish together?

However, battles were often decided in an instant. There was no time for one to react to it.

Wang Zheng also frowned. He obviously knew that the other party had such intentions and he was just playing along and pretended to be agitated. However, he had suddenly lost control of the left arm of the mech.

The mech was shaken fiercely by an external force and had shifted outwards. This had caused the beam saber to be off its target while Bartley beam saber with the burning Metal aura was coming straight at him. He had wanted to pierce Wang Zheng through his chest.

At this moment, Wang Zheng relied on his most-used techniques. Both of his eyes shot out a blinding light as the Primordial Regression Technique started circulating at high speed. This allowed him to forcefully control his mech under almost impossible circumstances.

The Conqueror made a creaking sound and forcefully made a side displacement that looked like an instantaneous movement as the beam saber went past him.

The mech flew out sideways. Bartley’s Wargod immediately chased after Wang Zheng after making a turn. He was also very surprised that his almost lethal move was avoided.

Bartley was too careless. He had thought that victory was already in his hands but his mech seemed to be tripped by something and he had almost fallen down.

This was Wang Zheng’s Ability X and a small technique from Old Zhuo. This type of small techniques might not be significant in a battle but was very useful.

Bartley smiled hideously. He forcefully controlled and stabilised his mech. This was interesting. He was able to take care of the small details at his age and even had the signs of entering Earth Grade. However, he would still have to die!

The mech rushed ahead strongly. With preparations, the sharp aura of the Metal attribute Ability could advance without hindrance. Bartley poured his power to the front of his mech and the Wargod dashed directly towards the Conqueror with an intention to kill.

Boom…

Wang Zheng’s beam saber had forcefully defended this lethal strike.
