Teams from various countries arrived one after another. Some were at the Aslan Royal College, while others were at their own embassies. They were all preparing for the final battle.
The Solar System team was the same. The team led by Wang Zheng had finally gathered. As the captain, Wang Zheng had obtained the command of the battle. The captain was not just a title.
"Our first opponent is out. It's the Locke's Star team. A very difficult opponent. How are you feeling? Nervous?" Meng Ao laughed.
As the head of the entire delegation, Meng Ao specifically found Wang Zheng to talk to. It could be said that the Solar System had high hopes for this year, especially for the military reformists represented by Meng Ao. If they could not produce results, it would be an extremely heavy blow to them.
Meng Ao looked at Wang Zheng. Could this young man take on such a heavy responsibility? He was more worried that training was king, but when it came to actual combat, he would become a worm. He was especially afraid of psychological problems.
Wang Zheng smiled. "I'm a little excited."
"Are you confident in defeating the Locke's Star team? They are also considered a traditionally strong team. The characteristics of the Locke's Star people are that they are very familiar with all kinds of mecha and can make targeted attacks and defenses. They are very difficult to deal with. Our first opponent will be them, which is very disadvantageous for us." Meng Ao laughed.
"General, we are very confident in ourselves. At least the Locke's Star people are not our target," Wang Zheng said. "I want to know the specific format of this IG competition. There are rumors that it will be actual combat, and there are also rumors that it will be a virtual battle."
Wang Zheng's heart was eager for actual combat, a real fight.
"There are a lot of participating countries and people, so before entering the main competition, we will borrow the Aslan Empire's training ground and virtual battlefield. Once we enter the main competition, it will be actual combat. The specific arrangements have not been announced by the IG."
Meng Ao said. With the Solar System's situation, it would be quite difficult to enter the main competition.
Wang Zheng nodded. This was what he wanted to know. As for the opponent, he would only know their level after fighting.
The atmosphere of the competition began to intensify. Zhang Shan and the others were also in high spirits when they learned that their opponents were also in high spirits. This was really a small world, and it was time for revenge.
In the end, there were only 16 places to enter the main competition. The Aslan Empire, the Atlantis Republic, the Arbiter Republic, the Manalasuo Empire, and the Gabriel Republic would directly enter the main competition. The other hundreds of participating countries would compete for the remaining 11 places.
It was definitely tragic. The reason for not choosing actual combat in the preliminary stage was very simple. Only the experts needed actual combat to determine the winner.
Actually, using Aslan's system, other than the higher safety factor, the operation was no different from actual combat.
Although Wang Zheng was the captain in name, his control over the Solar System team was not that strong.
As it was a sensitive period, Aina was unable to meet Wang Zheng. Moreover, as the first princess of the IG competition, she had many things to attend to, especially with the appearance of many dignitaries from various countries.
Wang Zheng and the rest also entered the final preparation period.
Yan Xiaosu was not idling around in Aslan. Through his special connections, he was also approaching some business opportunities. He was not here just for sightseeing. On one hand, he wanted to cheer for Wang Zheng. On the other hand, this was a rare opportunity to see if KING Company could find more opportunities here.
The Aslan Royal College was a classic elite college for the nobility. Many of the students came from wealthy families, and at the same time, it was convenient for them to work together. At least there was a possibility of cooperation. With Ye Zisu's business acumen, she naturally discovered many opportunities. It was just that she was more inclined towards mecha research, but these opportunities could be provided to Yan Xiaosu.
Just like the vow that Wang Zheng and Yan Xiaosu had made while lying on the hillside of Dawn College, today, there was finally some progress. At least both of them had stepped out of Earth and moved towards a bigger stage. Perhaps they were still insignificant people now, but who knew what the future held?
Wang Zheng did not have much of a captain's position in the team. He had come to Aslan earlier just to make things easier for everyone. The Royal College had also prepared a place for the participating countries, but there were too many countries, and the time allocation was tight. Wang Zheng had at least built up some foundation here, and this had helped the Solar System team gain more seats and time.
In this way, it seemed calm, but in fact, three days had passed.
The Milky Way Alliance IG competition had officially begun. In the first round, there were 86 countries fighting at the same time, and there was no lack of strong teams.
The Locke's Star team, the Ghana Star team, the Norton Star team, and so on all appeared.
The first opponent of the Locke's Star team was the Solar System team. The ten permanent members of the Milky Way Alliance were basically not seeded players, but they were also traditionally strong countries, except for the Solar System Federation. According to past practice, the Solar System Federation was equivalent to a free round.
However, it did not matter to the Locke's Star team, because with their strength, they did not care about their opponents at all. At least in the first few rounds, they would not encounter any particularly strong opponents.
As the mercenary star, they had comprehensive skills and excellent psychological quality. Crushing would be the only rhythm.
The preliminary stage of the IG competition did not prohibit the participation of the media. In addition to the media and their respective delegations, there were many students from Aslan College who came to watch.
For the match between the Solar System team and the Locke's Star team, if there were any of the ten superpowers participating, it would definitely be a hot topic. However, this match was the only exception.
The delegations of Locke's Star and the Solar System Federation had arrived and sat in their respective seats. Meng Ao did not appear. Before the actual competition, people from the military would not appear. This was also part of the management. Gu Te led the crowd to appear and exchanged a few words with the people from Locke's Star. However, it was obvious that the other party was more impatient than Gu Te.
In addition to them, there were even some Aslanian spectators who came to watch. They were probably here to watch the excitement.
Si Jiali sat quietly in her seat. She did not know why she was here, but she came just like that. Perhaps deep in her heart, she wanted to see what Wang Zheng would be like during a battle.
The match began, and the captains of both sides stepped forward.
Jackman arrogantly looked down at the Earth captain, and a disdainful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. "In fact, it's better for you to surrender directly. You don't have to waste everyone's time and lose face."
Wang Zheng smiled slightly and stretched out three fingers.
Jackman was stunned and ignored Wang Zheng. "Lovran, the first match is yours. Beat them up!"
Once the battle began, there was no need to be polite between the team members.
Five battles, three wins. The preliminaries were simple. Whoever was strong enough would advance to the next round.
Achilles and the others were very calm. So far, they had given Wang Zheng enough choice. Deep down, Achilles and Lear did not put the Locke's Star team in their eyes.
Among the substitutes, Zhang Shan could no longer sit still. "Wang Zheng, let me go!"
Zhang Shan volunteered. Gu Te and the others frowned. Such an important first battle, it was necessary to be the main force. Don't play with fire.
However, once the battle began, it was up to the team members to decide. The others were just spectators.
Wang Zheng smiled slightly. "First battle, Zhang Shan. Finish him, no need to save face!"
Zhang Shan jumped up and waved his fist at the Locke's Star team.
From his position, it was obvious that Zhang Shan was a substitute. This caused Jackman's face to darken. Damn it, he had sent the main striker, Lovran, who was also the bravest in the team. Yet, his opponent had sent a substitute. It was said that Earthlings liked to play tricks. What kind of Tianji horse race was this?
"Yuyan, is Locke's Star weak?" Si Jiali asked.
Bi Yuyan shook her head. "I don't know the specifics, but according to the information, Locke's Star's ranking should be dozens of places higher than the Solar System Federation."
"Then why did Wang Zheng let the substitute fight the opponent's main force?"
Bi Yuyan shrugged. "Maybe it's a tactic. It's very difficult for the Solar System Federation to win. The most important thing is to participate. You don't say, but Wang Zheng looks quite handsome."
When a man faced a battle, he would inadvertently burst out with a different kind of brilliance.
Si Jiali was silent. Wang Zheng was full of all kinds of incredible things. Although she did not understand it very well, a person who could pilot an Atlantean mech should not be too bad.
With regards to Wang Zheng's decision, Lear and Achilles were quite calm and had no objections. Raston and the rest were a little worried.
Wasn't Wang Zheng a little too nepotistic?
The first victory was very important. With the current situation of the Solar System Federation, they needed a good start.
Zhang Shan vs Lovran.
Zhang Shan chose Mars' Flame Guard III. It was a humanoid mech that belonged to the warrior category. It was very balanced, and its unique feature was that it was equipped with a Hundred-Slash Titanium Blade.
Lovran chose Arbiter's Overlord mech. It was violent and ferocious, and it was more than enough to suppress the warrior category mecha.
The two entered the cockpit and completed the connection. Two mecha appeared on the battlefield.
There was nothing fancy about this kind of battlefield. It was the most ordinary battlefield. The qualifiers were all about the most basic combat power.
Whoever was stronger would be able to defeat the opponent. As for intelligence, it was also built on the foundation of basic strength. Only by entering the main competition would one have the opportunity to show off.
Basically, the possibility of entering the main competition through luck and speculation was zero.
"Little kid from Earth, let me teach you how to be a man!"
Lovran roared, and the Overlord launched an attack. Regardless of whether it was against a heavy mech or a warrior-type mech, the Overlord could take the initiative to suppress them.
The overall performance of Mars' Flame Guard could only be said to be passable. In terms of movement, it was a little better than the Overlord, but it had no other special features.
Lovran obviously did not take his opponent seriously. His muscles rippled, and he intended to smash his opponent into pieces in one go. It was a pity that this was not a real battle, or he would have broken his opponent's courage.
The Overlord mech rushed forward in an imposing manner. The Flame Guard also rushed forward. Were they going to risk their lives with him?
He was simply looking for death!
Lovran's spear was full of strength, and his Ability X was already burning. Pure strength, even with the protection of the energy shield, was useless. A spear pierced through the heart!
The two mecha were already very close. The Overlord's spear shot out, but the Flame Guard was still in a ready posture. …
Shing …
The Overlord disappeared.
He dodged the spear and appeared behind the Overlord. Kill!
Zhang Shan, who had been holding back for a long time, roared, and slashed down with his Hundred-Refined Titanium Blade!
A real man speaks with his blade!
(The second update has arrived. Friends, please get monthly tickets. # # # # # will continue to be released today, but … the Heat still died. Sigh, poor LeBron. But I still have to congratulate the Spurs. They are still ambitious despite their age.
