Perhaps, from the very beginning, no one had expected that the battle would reach this stage.
Regardless of whether it was the judgment of the authoritative figures or the bets from both inside and outside the circle, no one was optimistic about the unknown Game Church.
The Game Church? I've never heard of it. It hasn't even been two years since it was established, yet it's challenging the Silver Elf Church that has decades of history. Do they even have a chance of winning? No matter how you look at it, it seems like they're just speculators trying to hype up hot news and then die quickly.
This kind of thing has happened countless times already. If a new God's Church wants to stand out, challenging an established Church or even initiating a Battle of the Gods is obviously a shortcut. However, no matter how much they boast about it beforehand, the result is usually a one-sided crushing. The cruel battlefield will teach the newcomers that stepping into the top requires strength as a guarantee.
For those who fail in the challenge, no matter how amazing their reputation was or how highly they were praised, the more they fall on the battlefield, the worse they fall. Often, their strength will be depleted on the battlefield, and they'll be beaten up when they're down. Not being able to recover from the setback is the best ending. The most common ending is the fall of a God or the collapse of a Church.
Although most of the audience is saying that they're cheering for the Game Church, they actually bought tickets to enter the arena just to see the strong crush the weak. Before the battle, they've already decided on the winner — the Silver Elf War God.
But now, when the battle has reached the final stage, when Rorschach and his team are starting their final charge, even the most picky of critics will have to admit that this New God's Church has a chance of winning. This is something that they've won bit by bit with their own strength.
The first round is a test of the top combat strength of both sides. Not only was the Silver Elf War God's Church completely crushed, they even lost their signature character. However, this kind of situation is still a bit rare. After all, it's too much of a coincidence for a strong individual to appear.
The second round is a test of new blood. It's a test of the future potential of both Churches. The Silver Elf War God's character doesn't even belong to the War God's Church. Instead, he's the star newcomer of the entire Silver Elf Divine System. This can be considered cheating in a certain sense. As for the Game Church, they're still "unknown" newcomers.
However, the two of them were not the only ones being tested.
The age restriction guaranteed the freshness of the newcomers. Under the premise that there wasn't much of a difference in absolute power level, the weapons, equipment, and magic armors of the two newcomers would be the hard conditions to compete against each other. There were also strategies, tactics, and so on. Both churches would even prepare complete sets of tactics for the newcomers. The true competition would be between the two churches' newcomer training systems.
This was also why most of the audience felt that the silver elves were being shameless. The dragon descendant had brought a Divine Equipment in the rookie battle, and their racial equipment advantage had resulted in an overwhelming advantage in strength that shouldn't have existed.
This is probably due to the great disparity in strength on the battlefield. Since Ariel's situation was far too unique, nobody was optimistic about Rorschach's chances. In fact, most of the bets were on whether or not he could survive, how many minutes he could last, and so on. Now, those who bet on Rorschach's chances of a draw are already making a huge profit. If you break down the odds to a draw, the odds are probably astronomical … But even his companions didn't bet on Rorschach's victory. This type of lucky person can only be considered a lucky star who casually placed bets.
But in the end, not only did Rorschach not lose any points, he even ended the match in a draw with an advantage … Of course, if the match had continued, just that Divine Equipment of his would have been enough to defeat Rorschach.
Outstanding strategic and tactical qualities, survival skills on the battlefield, scouting skills, these are all part of a person's strength. These acquired abilities proved that the Game Church was successful in nurturing newcomers' abilities and fighting attitude. Rorschach's performance could be said to be a living advertisement for the Game Church. And what did Ariel do? She was careless, rash, arrogant, and lacked basic scouting skills. It could be said that she made a fool of herself, and this is despite her being a celebrity newcomer who was praised to the heavens.
"Does your family nurture newcomers so that they can do whatever they want based on their natural talents? If they rely on themselves and nurture their talents to the point where they rely on the heavens to survive, then why would they need your nurturing system? "
If a newcomer were to choose a church or battle group in the future, just this battle alone would show that the game's church was overwhelmingly attractive. Not only was it difficult to change one's innate talent, but the nurturing and growth environment were also extremely important.
When it came to the third match, although the public still didn't think highly of the Game Church, as long as they didn't lose too badly, this new church could be said to have achieved its promotional mission.
Yes, the public still didn't think highly of the Game Church. This could be seen from the third match's payout that didn't change much.
One was a famous battle group that had been formed and trained for many years. They had a core member, a specific playstyle, and actual battle results. The other …
"The Third Gaming Society? A school club that was established less than two months ago. It's said that the purpose of its establishment was to help a certain member make up for combat credits? Are you kidding me? They're planning on surrendering right away. "
Anyone who saw this information and confirmed that this club didn't have any particularly famous celebrity would probably think highly of the Third Gaming Society.
The truth was just as the information said. The Third Gaming Society was obviously an immature team. Faced with May Rain's bombardment, they chose the most 'stupid' response — brainless pig charge.
"Without the ability to teleport, without using the Aerial Battle Demonic Armor to suppress the enemy's firepower, without a bait to attract the enemy's firepower, they're just charging forward recklessly. Are they tired of living?"
Rorschach also wanted to use other battle tactics. He also didn't want to gamble that his opponent's eyes would be countered by his own abilities. However, it was impossible for him to do so in reality.
But now, although the journey was difficult, although there was a lot of luck involved, and although many members had sacrificed their lives, Rorschach's team was finally standing in front of May Rain. It was time for the final showdown between the two sides.
"… I won't say anything else. Isabella, as long as you win, I'll bet that you'll get one-tenth of the battle group's winnings. That'll be enough for you to win 300 consecutive matches."
Rorschach's words didn't make sense, but the lurker in the clouds instantly exploded with emotions as if he had been injected with chicken blood.
"You promised me 600 consecutive matches! I'm coming! "
"… I didn't say anything. Forget it, do whatever you want. As long as you fight well, 600 it is. Just remember to leave money for the meal."
Rorschach's words didn't receive any response. However, Isabella had already begun to move.
The first wave of attacks didn't come from the Land Alliance members who had finally arrived at the foot of the mountain. Instead, a blood-red witch flew through the clouds. Sparks and red smoke directly ignited the clouds, turning them into a fiery red color.
A witch with flames trailing behind her descended from the sky amidst the chaos. Isabella had been waiting for this moment for far too long.
"The witch's express delivery has arrived! Unlucky bastards, even if you don't want to sign for it, you should still come and enjoy our fireworks show! "
The fiery witch spun as she descended from the sky like an unstoppable meteor. However, her meteor suddenly disintegrated mid-flight. Countless small missiles jumped out from her meteor and scattered towards the ground. In just two seconds after she appeared, the meteor had transformed into an even more dangerous meteor shower.
The fiery red clouds were forcefully torn apart. Hundreds of dangerous "express delivery items" were naturally concealed by the clouds.
Isabella's outer armor completely disintegrated. A light magical armor that was even more nimble stepped on a skateboard and descended, displaying its high mobility against the magic cannons.
The fact that Isabella was able to create an outer armor filled with explosives and then put it on her body proved just how insane the witches were.
But now, this insanity was actually effective. Just one person and a single aerial battle magical armor was able to create a large-scale bombardment.
This was also a one-wave gamble. After this wave of aerial attacks, regardless of success or failure, Isabella's aerial battle magical armor was destined to be eliminated from the battlefield. However, this wave of aerial attacks would definitely be powerful enough as a price.
When all the members of a battle squadron fought in such a manner, it would be either one of them dying, or everyone dying together. It was no wonder that no matter if it was an enemy or a teammate, everyone would stay far away from such a battle squadron.
But now, in order to not be completely annihilated in this aerial attack, the May Rain squadron would have to fight with everything they had.
"Charge!"
