La Tu smiled faintly. "Jian Zihao has matured. You are all staring at Saruman Snake's weakness. But if you know it's a weakness, why did Wang Zheng send Zhang Shan?"
Ka Tao was taken aback. "Teacher, you mean that Wang Zheng did it on purpose … Could it be that he wants to make use of Zhang Shan's mobility?"
La Tu laughed. "This is a team battle, not a place to be a hero. In the first round, or even the first two rounds, it is necessary to match lines. The main thing is to understand the strength of the opponent. But if the Icefire Battle Team wants to kill Zhang Shan, then they are thinking too much. A warrior with spatial abilities can easily leave the battlefield."
"If it's the Wind God, he can probably leave the battlefield in an instant, and form the quickest support. If Snow Lee comes in for a surprise attack …" Ka Tao understood now. This was Saruman Snake's plan. An obvious weakness could sometimes be a trap.
"A pity that Senior Jian Zihao has already seen through it. His double mech can form a solid defense for Icefire Battle Team. And with the San brothers' ability, mobility will not be lost too much."
Jian Zihao's tactics were to not give the opponent any chance to play tricks. Saruman Snake Battle Team was weaker in terms of overall strength and teamwork. But seeing their previous battles, this team was imaginative, and daring.
With 2 heavy soldiers, their opponents would no longer have any chances. If it was under normal circumstances, 2 heavy soldiers wouldn't be able to escape. However, the Saint Brothers were an exception.
"Tactics are ever-changing. It still depends on the situation. But both sides have already fought before the battle. So far, it looks like Saruman Snake Battle Team has lost."
La Tu laughed. Wang Zheng was a little scheming. A pity that he had underestimated his opponent. When Jian Zihao had first entered Elite Academy X, he had been known as a risk-taker. But after so many years of training, although he had a heroic spirit, it was no longer just passion.
This was maturity.
The battle tactics students were a little excited. In the first round, both sides were more confident, and there would not be too many surprises. But Icefire Battle Team and Saruman Snake Battle Team had already begun.
Ten mecha appeared on the battlefield. Face-Off!
Icefire Battle Team's pride soared. A tank against the Wind God. How confident was that?
This was a contradiction in terms. However, in reality, there weren't any sparks flying in all directions. It was impossible for a scout to kill a heavy soldier, and the only way for a heavy soldier to kill a scout was if the scout had diarrhea.
This was also the reason why Jian Zihao made such a choice. At the same time, on the line, he maintained a distance. This meant that if the Wind God wanted to support other teammates, then the closest choice would be Takumi, and this would fall into the San brothers' trap.
Vincent's Golden Wheel Battle King and Curter's Slayer were similar to the previous battle. In terms of offensive tactics, the Slayer was very popular, especially for those pilots who had enough control and confidence in their abilities.
But both Vincent and Curter were very careful. Even if they were confident, as a team member, they couldn't take it for granted. Perhaps there was only a fine line between confidence and conceit. Before the team battle, safety was the first priority, and finding an opportunity was only the second.
Saint Kara was very arrogant. Although it was a battle between heavy soldiers, he had the intention to defeat Takumi. They were both students of the White Tiger Region, but both parties did not have much interaction. They were both famous in their respective circles, but there was no chance for a victor to be decided. It was just that Saint Kara did not put the country bumpkin of the Big Bear Star in his eyes.
A heavy soldier could also destroy an opponent. Who would have thought that the first to use their Ability X would be two heavy soldiers? San Kara's was a force field ability, very similar to Achilles'. Such an ability was also quite domineering for a heavy soldier, while Takumi's ability was used for defense.
In the confrontation between the two snipers, Snow Lee was completely suppressed. In the learning of sniping, Rulf, as a senior, had given Snow Lee many pointers. He knew Snow Lee's strengths and weaknesses very well. It was obvious that Snow Lee's Ability X had improved greatly. However, mecha were not completely dominated by Ability X. As for attacks that did not consume any energy, it was useless if one could not hit.
In terms of sniping accuracy and firing speed, Rulf's suppression of Snow Lee was inevitable, and Snow Lee was clear on this point.
On the main battlefield, Wang Zheng's Overlord and Jian Zihao's Berserker were facing off. Jian Zihao usually looked like a relatively gentle person, but once he entered battle, he was like a completely different person. Berserker's beam saber slashed viciously towards Wang Zheng. Jian Zihao knew that Wang Zheng was proficient in compound abilities, which was very rare. But meeting him was Wang Zheng's bad luck. No matter what Ability X it was, it was useless against his berserk and immunity.
The Overlord might seem scary to the average warrior, but Jian Zihao understood it very well. Every mech had its strengths and weaknesses. For example, the Overlord's charge was ferocious, but it was a classic case of three axes being used up. It required a strong combination of physical skills. Olivios was using Arbiter's strongest Heavenly Overlord Attack, which was why he had such an effect. Others would not be able to hold their own.
After just a few moves, Jian Zihao had already probed Wang Zheng's situation. He indeed had some skill. No wonder he could defeat Hocatolin. Jian Zihao had a rough idea, but he did not intend to use his Ability X to kill his opponent. To finish off Wang Zheng, it would not be a matter of one or two moves. He was waiting for an opportunity.
The opportunity had come.
Zhang Shan indeed had no way of dealing with Saint Tolini's Atlas. It had an energy shield, and his Ability X could not help either. At the same time, he had to maintain a distance. Once he was pulled by Tolini's gravitational pull, he would not even know how he died.
Immediately execute battle tactics!
Zhang Shan pretended to attack, but suddenly threw out the magnetic source. Following that, he quickly broke free and rushed towards Takumi who was closest to him.
At this time, it was a dream for a tank to catch up to the scout. Besides, Zhang Shan could warp.
Time was of the essence. As expected, Rulf wanted to stop him, but Zhang Shan's warp worked. A pity. Although the Icefire Battle Team was aware of Saruman Snake's battle tactics, they had underestimated Zhang Shan's speed.
At the street corner, Saint Tolini was chasing with all his might. But he was too far away from Zhang Shan, and Curter could not help. But Curter had suppressed Snow Lee's intentions. Snow Lee definitely wanted to cooperate with Zhang Shan and Takumi to finish off one of them. But the Icefire Battle Team was not stupid.
Jian Zihao was very sure that everything was under control. This Wang Zheng had disappointed him a little. Perhaps he was just a warrior with excellent individual ability, and was not suited to be a leader.
And outside of Inner Roland, the other military school students were stunned by Zhang Shan's godly movements. The Wind God stepped on the wall, using the magnetic source to fly. It could be called the king of displacement, and connected with three warps. And Takumi had also made his move. The power of the earth exploded, and he would fight his opponent to the death. Let this guy be arrogant.
This was an open plan. Who would live or die would depend on one's ability.
At this moment, the two Saint Kara brothers had the same smile on their faces.
Their Ability X exploded. Saint Kara's Atlas used the Desolate Steel Beast's attack to fly up. Separated by a long distance, the Ability Xs of the two Atlas resonated, and in an instant … linked.
The two Atlas mecha attracted each other at a terrifying speed.
Zhang Shan's expression froze in an instant. He had been too anxious, and did not hold back. Never in his dreams would he have thought that the opponent would have such a move.
The magnetic source flew out. At this moment, he could only count on this!
But the magnetic source was disrupted by the force field.
Zhang Shan could not react in time.
Boom …
The Wind God was smashed into pieces by the two heavy mecha.
The Saint brothers actually still had the leisure to exchange three shots, strike a pose, and openly taunt. From the start, they had not treated the Earthlings as opponents. Zhang Shan was not the first fool, and would not be the last. He dared to use such a small trick. Did he think the others were pigs?
The battle tactics department students were also shaking their heads. As the captain, Wang Zheng could not escape the blame. They definitely had to give him a bad review.
The situation had changed. Saruman Snake Battle Team's tactics had failed, and they had suffered a double loss.
Takumi's heart sank, but he did not panic. As a qualified tank, he knew what to do.
Wang Zheng's Overlord had also used a long spear to force Jian Zihao back. Jian Zihao had not intended to let his opponent leave the battlefield, but he had not expected the power of Wang Zheng's spear to be so vicious. He was caught unprepared, and took a step back. Wang Zheng immediately controlled, and immediately circled behind the building.
But it was not so easy for the Golden Wheel to leave the battlefield. Curter's Slayer was holding Vincent back. Want to leave? How could it be so easy!
The tactics were clear, and they had already calculated. As long as Vincent was killed, the Saruman Snake Battle Team could surrender.
Far away on Earth, there was no movement from Ares College. Everyone had heard the tactical analysis, but they had not expected Wang Zheng and the others to be completely calculated, and to be following the opponent's script.
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Seeing Lear's performance, they had thought that Wang Zheng could bring glory to Ares College … now it seemed like they were going to be beaten like a dog.
Chen Xiu and Yao Ailun were helpless as well, and could only explain the situation. Yao Ailun was a little regretful. He had praised Wang Zheng and Zhang Shan too much previously, and the contrast was too great.
But in truth, the only ones who felt that Saruman Snake Battle Team could win were the few colleges on Earth and the Moon. Before Achilles went up, only Ares College was left.
Now even Ares College was in despair.
They had no intelligence at all. If Zhang Shan could not do it, then replace him. This was not Zhang Shan's fault. Although Zhang Shan was not strong enough, the main point was Wang Zheng's dereliction of duty as the captain.
Everyone was discussing fervently, their faces full of judgemental smiles.
This was the chronic weakness of the Saruman Snake battle team. The standard of the team itself was different. There might be a few members who were very talented, but they were still too inexperienced. For example, Vincent's reaction was too slow. He only thought of leaving the battlefield at this moment. This kind of adaptability was insufficient.
Lear's mouth revealed a hint of a smile. He understood Wang Zheng. This was the first battle, and Zhang Shan was his brother. Even if there was the risk of failure, he would let Zhang Shan go.
