The first match of the quarterfinals was also held in Aslan Royal College's largest Royal Hall. Even though the participating members of each country's delegation had already returned, the leaders and tactical personnel of each team were even busier. They were in charge of the remaining matters. At this stage, it was also time for each country to show their true strength. The VIP area was also filled with military and political dignitaries from each country. Kashawen did not appear. She represented Dean Lin Hong. This identity carried enough weight.
Huiyin and the other cute girls also received a VIP seat. They actually wanted to watch from the contestants' seats, but their identities were too sensitive, so they could only sit in the VIP seats. This was not as convenient as Ai Xiaolu and Luo Er, but it could not be helped. It would be unfair to the other teams if Princess Huiyin sat behind any Aslan team. The lively scene did not affect the warriors. At this stage, everyone had entered the zone. Glory was earned through strength.
Soulless battle team vs Imperial Glory battle team.
Di Maria wanted to prove himself in this battle. Currently, the Soulless battle team was Arbiter's number one battle team. They carried the hopes of Arbiter. As long as he could defeat the Soulless battle team, he could definitely show his face in front of all the people of Aslan and leave a deep impression in front of the princess. Di Maria had never lacked ambition. What he lacked was a little bit of luck.
For the vanguard battle, the Imperial Glory battle team sent out Heracles. Using an Atlantean as the vanguard for the first match was a standard tactic. It was a time to test the depth of the battle team.
Although he was representing the Imperial Glory battle team, it was impossible for Heracles to go easy. As a warrior, even if he was an Atlantean, he had to give it his all. Otherwise, he would lose the glory of Atlantis.
Hercules, the Phantom King
On the Warrior Soul College side, Aragorn definitely could not go himself. There were only two possibilities for the captain to appear in the vanguard battle. Either he was too weak and wanted to fight, or he wanted to capture the opponent's captain.
The Soulless battle team sent out D. Noel. This … wasn't he a tank?
Aragorn was expressionless. He … had chosen randomly. In the Soulless battle team, it was the same whoever went up.
Facing the "legendary" Atlantean, D. Noel was still expressionless. He chose Arbiter's humanoid heavy mech, "Guillotine".
A tank against the Phantom King?
Was this a tactic?
This type of mech was in line with Arbiter's style. Although it was a tank, its attack power was also very strong. Its weapon was a double-hooked hatchet, which was very domineering. Tanks were especially outstanding against tanks, but the flaw was also obvious, which was that it was not flexible enough. It had a natural advantage against tanks, but its disadvantage against other mecha was also very obvious. It was a mech that required teamwork.
Heracles didn't care who his opponent was, or what mech he chose. What he had to do was to win this match.
Below the stage, His Highness Atlas was watching. He needed to be himself, no matter which team he was in.
Two mecha appeared, with completely different styles. This time, the Arbiters were a little too careless. Heracles' strength had been proven at the Greatest King. He was someone who could challenge Wang Zheng, unless Aragorn was planning to give up this match. But this was not in line with the Arbiters' character.
The Mayans had lifted the ban, and so had the Atlanteans. They could freely release their spiritual power to communicate with the universe, and bring out the profound meaning of the runes. It should be known that the power of the runes was a level higher than the G-material of the humans.
The Phantom King did not hesitate at all. It advanced directly towards Noel. The Guillotine mech had no intention of moving or evading. It knew this well. Facing the Phantom King's attack, moving carelessly would mean dying faster. The tank's defense and the effectiveness of the counterattack were the key. Of course, it was too difficult to catch the Phantom King.
Zeng …
The phantom separated, and the two mecha charged towards the Guillotine at the same time. Bang, bang, bang …
The Rune Sword and the Heavy Sickle intersected continuously. Noel was very steady. Facing Heracles' probing attack, he was only defending.
The Phantom King clearly had the initiative. It used enough speed and agility to completely suppress the tank. The Guillotine mech was exhausted and had no way to counterattack. The Phantom King was not only fast enough, but its tank's defense was also good. If it wanted to attack, it was too slow. Moreover, the Phantom King's energy switch was even harder to defend against.
After a few exchanges, Heracles used spiritual blasts continuously, but to no avail. This Noel's spiritual defense was very strong, and at the same time, he was very good at it. There was no reaction at all when the spiritual blasts went in. The Phantom King moved twice in a row and pulled apart the distance.
To be able to resist his spiritual blasts, even if the opponent was not Earth-rank, he must have had considerable training in spiritual endurance, just like a robot.
In the cockpit, Noel was expressionless. The members of the Soulless battle team were also expressionless. It was no longer strange for the Atlanteans to be good at spiritual attacks, including some powerful Ability X users.
The runes of the Phantom King lit up, and then the mech floated up. The Rune Sword was burning with flames, and there was a strong energy reaction. This was how Atlantis communicated with the universe. Their communication had no attributes. For some reason, the Atlanteans could not feel the five elements, but it was not to say that this energy was weak. They communicated with the original energy.
The battle of the Greatest King had already shown that in the face of this kind of rune technology, basically all attacks would be blocked. Based on the strength of Heracles's rune power, only Earth-rank warriors could break it. Back then, Wang Zheng had used the Slayer, and it had taken him a lot of effort to break it. That was even with the Slayer's better movement. Of course, this was also the advantage of Wang Zheng's Ability X.
Zeng …
The Phantom King advanced. The beam saber burning with black rune energy had become very lethal. Doppelganger!
The attack was launched at the same time. Phantom X Cross Lock!
Back then, Wang Zheng had used the Slayer to dodge it. That was a very complicated movement technique, and this technique was not something that a tank could do. Even if it could be done, the speed would be a completely different concept. He really did not know what Arbiter was doing.
If they wanted to surrender, they should have looked like they were surrendering. But they just had to put on a show of righteousness. Heracles was indeed one of the best among the Atlanteans. Coupled with the terrifying power of the Rune Energy Shield, he did not care about the opponent's attacks. This was the truly terrifying part, and it had been proven during the Greatest King.
The doppelganger and the main body arrived at the same time. The Guillotine mech only made one correct choice … turn on the energy shield.
The tank's energy shield could indeed block it, but this … anyone could do it!
