Zi interrupted and said, "That's right.
"Don't forget that Skull and Zeus are still at the beginner stage. If Skull's ability is upgraded to a high level, he will be able to completely metalize himself and greatly reduce the damage he can inflict on the enemy. He might even be able to equip everyone in his party with a dark-gold armour!"
"If Zeus's ability is upgraded to a high level, he will be completely encased in rocks and can shoot out eight Gravity Rays. The range of the Gravity Rays will spread out to 500 square metres. He can easily envelop the entire enemy party in his gravitational field. He can even instantly cut off the enemy's gravity and cause them to float up! He will cause them to undergo a violent displacement. "
Reef had been silently observing all this while. When he heard Zi's words, he replied.
"Judging from the current situation, Skull's MT ability can only be used on his own people, while Zeus' MT ability can be used on both offense and defense. On a deeper level, Skull's ability requires the permanent consumption of a piece of equipment, while Zeus' MT ability is slightly stronger."
Zi shook her head.
"That's not necessarily true. Although Skull consumes equipment, it's very likely that he doesn't need to pay for the rest of the cost. Moreover, the better the equipment he consumes, the longer the duration of his MT ability. Moreover, the grade of the armor he gives his teammates is also related to the grade of the equipment he consumes. In order to create a temporary Dark Gold armor for his teammates, he must consume Dark Gold equipment. If you fight against a contestant enhanced by Skull, you will find that the steel armour he creates strengthens the contestant in all aspects. The biggest strengthening is survivability, followed by movement speed, attack speed and so on. "
"In comparison, Zeus' MT ability requires achievement points, utility points, and potential points to activate. The consumption rate for both sides is basically the same. Zeus's ability, on the other hand, is more simplistic. It only slows down and accelerates. If you think about it this way, although the difference in abilities between both sides is huge, they are actually on the same starting line. The reason you think Zeus has the advantage is because the terrain here is narrow, allowing Zeus's ability to affect the enemy better. In fact, if the battle were to take place in an open square, the number of enemies affected by Zeus's gravity circle would be reduced by at least half. "
Sheyan stared at the battle for a while before he suddenly asked.
"So, the path of an MT you mentioned was chosen by the Realm when you started to become an Awakener?"
Zi hesitated for a moment before slowly replying.
"Most of the time … yes."
"That means there are still a small number of cases, right?" Sheyan caught the hidden meaning in Zi's words.
Instead, Zi shut her mouth and continued to sip her coffee gracefully. Evidently, she wasn't willing to discuss this issue any further.
At this time, the situation on the battlefield had undergone a subtle change. As soon as Zeus appeared, his gravitational field could effectively protect his allies. The two Growth-Hunters with metal armor were melee fighters, belonging to the arrowhead type. Once they tried to attack, they would be slowed down by the gravitational field, and their attacks would not be able to penetrate.
At this moment, if Skull Party had a few valiant ranged attackers, they could bombard Glory Party's gravity circle indiscriminately. Most likely, they would be able to achieve miraculous results. However, Glory Party just so happened to possess the formidable Aziz!
After slaying the blowdart man, this individual could actually single-handedly suppress the sniper Triss, Pestilence and the elusive Patrice of Skull Party to the point of being unable to breathe! Moreover, he still had the strength to occasionally fire a shot at the other members of Skull Party to demonstrate his presence.
Under the frightening shadow of Aziz, how could Skull Party's ranged attacks become formidable?
Sheyan observed this scene as he dipped his coffee and wrote two names on the table – Finarsi, Aziz. At present, these two could be considered as Zeus's left and right arms. If he wanted to defeat Glory Party, he had to first find a way to eliminate those two. He didn't know if it was his fortune or his misfortune that these two were targeted by Sheyan ….
Time swiftly elapsed. Although most of the attacks from both parties were concentrated on the MT, Skull Party still held the advantage in numbers. Seizing this golden opportunity, the five of them launched a joint assault, slaying yet another contestant of Glory Party.
However, at the same time, Aziz's two bullets had transformed into two gigantic snow wolves. One of the bullets tore Virus out of the void, while the other shot Trissy into a near-death state. The members of Skull Party had no choice but to rush over to rescue their helpers.
Seizing this opportunity, Zeus had the Metals Professor open a path and unleashed a terrifying 'Metal Storm'. He successfully led his subordinates out of this deathtrap of the underground carpark!
Under such circumstances, Glory Party already had the space to retreat and flee. Skull was exceedingly clear that if they wanted to continue this battle, they would inevitably enter a desperate war of attrition. Under normal circumstances, parties in the nightmare realm would absolutely not engage in such a battle. Even if the party leader went berserk, the party members would absolutely not agree.
After exchanging several probing attacks, Zeus and Skull both lost their will to battle. They led their party and disappeared into the distance. Sheyan squinted his eyes as he watched them leave. His eyes flickered with a peculiar glint.
Zi gazed at him and insipidly asked.
"Do you feel very disappointed? You're also an MT, but you're unable to stand in front of them and be on the same level as them. Actually, there's no need for you to belittle yourself. As a contestant, you've already done very well. As long as you have enough time … "
Sheyan suddenly laughed and replied.
"Your words were wrong from the start. Firstly, why should I feel disappointed? Even now, I still dare to stand before Zeus! Perhaps I can't do anything to him, but similarly, he can't do anything to me! Secondly, you seem to have forgotten who was the one who caused this situation of mutual destruction. No matter how powerful one is, what use is it if one doesn't have sufficient wisdom to control it? "
Zi faintly smiled and didn't argue with Sheyan. Evidently, she felt that Sheyan's current state of mind was a little unstable. Instead, she suddenly noticed the gazes of Reef and Mogensha.
Astonishingly, it was a gaze of absolute trust in Sheyan's words!
Zi's heart abruptly jolted as a thought uncontrollably floated into her mind.
"Could it be, everything he said was true??? How, how is that possible? A mere contestant actually possesses the strength to contend against an Awakener MT! "
For a moment, she thought of all the surprises that Sheyan had brought her. She felt that Sheyan was an existence that defied common sense. He was shrouded in an indescribable fog. You lifted a layer of fog and thought you saw the real him, but you would soon find that a new layer of fog continued to shroud him ….
"Let's go." Sheyan glanced at the chaotic plaza below and indifferently said. "Today's harvest is sufficient. Oh, the next step is to gather some detailed information on Hammond. Although it's almost certain that he's on the island where the dinosaurs originated, we still have to collect enough information or make sufficient preparations before we can do anything. Recklessly barging into that damned place is simply suicide! "
The four of them waited for a while before boarding the descending elevator. Inside the rapidly descending elevator, even with Zi's shrewdness, she couldn't help but ask.
"Seaman, what ability do you rely on to possess the confidence to contend against Zeus and Skull?"
Sheyan chortled heartily and replied with a joyous laughter.
"I'm just kidding, I was just casually speaking and you took it seriously. Zi, you haven't been cheated by a man before right?"
"You …" Zi stuttered.
Sheyan's last sentence could be said to have a double meaning. Asking a woman if she had been cheated by a man before... this was obviously different in nature. Zi's originally fair complexion blushed a bewitching shade of red upon hearing Sheyan's words. Unsure if it was due to embarrassment or annoyance, she turned her face away and ignored him.
*****
Three hours later, the four of them arrived at Fanbo City.
This was the nearest metropolis to the dinosaur disaster zone. There were three airports and it was extremely flourishing. This city was originally just a medium-sized city, but after the dinosaurs landed, the local government accelerated the development, including the use of dinosaur crystals, dinosaur leather production, dinosaur artificial breeding, and a series of other topics. Because of this, the city quickly expanded and became a world-class metropolis.
Currently, over 70% of the world's dinosaur research facilities were located here. Furthermore, the person they were looking for, Hammond, was previously the deputy chief engineer of Fanbo City's Sando Technology Corporation. He was in charge of dinosaur genetics research.
The headquarters of Sando Technology Corporation was a colossal 43 storey building. Before the 20th storey, the security was extremely lax. However, from the 20th storey onwards, it could be said to be heavily guarded with all sorts of advanced technological facilities.
According to Zi's intelligence, there were plenty of mechanisms like laser channels that could threaten a contestant's life. Even the firearms allocated to the guards were specially designed to deal with dinosaurs. It was extremely troublesome to deal with. It wasn't impossible to barge in, but they wouldn't be able to obtain any intelligence.
After pondering a little, Sheyan asked Zi if she had any familiar storyline characters here. Zi then led them to a Korean barbeque restaurant. After entering the barbeque restaurant, they took the elevator down to basement 3. The stench of blood was extremely heavy here. This was a black market workshop for processing dinosaur meat. Numerous workers were slicing dinosaur meat and smearing it with tender meat powder, gutter oil, Sudan red and other condiments. (To be continued.
