Saruman Snake was on the verge of elimination. Once again, w.a.n.g Zheng wielded his killer move, using the opponent's move against himself. It was similar to using the Phantom King to defeat Atlantis in IG. This time, he had chosen the Rune Warrior.
From the current situation, w.a.n.g Zheng seemed to have taken over the advantage!
After a short silence, resounding cheers were heard both on the inside and outside of the arena. Who said that Saruman Snake had already given up? Who said that there was no hope for Saruman Snake?
At the most crucial time, the central figure of Saruman Snake, w.a.n.g Zheng, had stepped up.
"Is history going to repeat itself? The Atlanteans might not be able to take this blow!"
"Dear G.o.d, ever since the introduction of the Rune Warrior, it has been invincible. Yet w.a.n.g Zheng can actually use it and is even better at it!"
"This has really been an eye-opener. Is everything that had just happened real?"
Most of the audience had no idea what was happening, except that w.a.n.g Zheng had practiced using the Rune Warrior. But the core figures in the arena knew very well that the Runic Matrices had only make their first appearance in this SIG. Although the Rune Warrior had been around for a while, no one had used Runic Matrices before.
"This is simply amazing! I've heard that ever since w.a.n.g Zheng was discharged from the hospital, he has been sparring with his team mates behind closed doors and they have been using the Rune Warrior. Could he have mastered Atlantis' Runic Matrices in a matter of three days?" Si Jiali could not believe this, even though she was the one who had uttered these words.
Jondi Lilick was a contestant of the SIG, as well as a highly skilled master. He knew very well the difficulties of changing routines. He could use the Atlanteans' mecha, but he could not use them very well. As for using the Runic Matrices… since the appearance of the Runes Matrices, he had discussed the possibility with General Bolet…
Mankind could naturally achieve it. However, these were two very different systems. Crossing systems was as good as changing habits. It was not impossible, but they would not be able to perform well.
Looking at w.a.n.g Zheng's golden Rune Warrior, Jondi Lilick felt a deep sense of helplessness. At his level, having a strong opponent was a good thing. This would urge him forward, to catch up and to surpa.s.s. w.a.n.g Zheng was a good target. But what he was capable of, what he had achieved, was despairing for some people.
It was not hard to imagine the impact he had on others since he was someone who made Jondi Lilick feel a sense of despair.
The mood at the contestants' seats had always been the calmest. Regardless of how the battle penned out, they would not get so excited and surprised like the others. Regardless of success or failure, they were all contestants. Same level, same stage.
This time, looking at the golden Rune Warrior, everyone had very mixed emotions.
w.a.n.g Zheng had been very strong since the battle with Gonzales. Everyone seemed to have seen the limit of w.a.n.g Zheng's strength, especially during the battle with Aragorn of the Soulless battle team. Everyone had seen w.a.n.g Zheng's core. Everyone believed that that was w.a.n.g Zheng's limit.
However…
"w.a.n.g Zheng has made a breakthrough." Jondi Lilick pointed out everyone's doubts with much difficulty.
The Arbiters should understand this the most. When w.a.n.g Zheng and Aragorn met and when only one person could survive, the person who survived would inherit the acc.u.mulated comprehension of the other person.
This was why Montero had gone and seen w.a.n.g Zheng and told him not to be defeated by anyone. All that Aragorn had strived to achieve in the past had become the foundation for w.a.n.g Zheng.
The person who survived would be unstoppable!
"Breakthrough?" asked a confused Si Jiali.
"w.a.n.g Zheng's journey thus far, from the qualifiers till now, he has gone through a lot of intense battles. For us, every battle is very precious. All of these battles have been experiences to facilitate his improvement. To what extent he has improved is beyond me now. But one thing for certain is that his spiritual power has now reached B-level or above. It should not be doubted that he has advanced to Earth-rank level three now. Yet his true strength is not limited to this."
Before this battle, Jondi Lilick had believed that he would definitely be able to catch up to w.a.n.g Zheng in two years' time. But now, he knew that he was being naive.
This person had never stopped advancing. He simply would not give anyone any opportunity to catch up .
The two mecha stopped in the air, as if waiting for the energy protection wall to be readjusted. They both knew that if the defense of the energy protection wall was insufficient, it would not be able to defend against the impacts of their pending attacks.
If they were not careful, the entire arena would be destroyed. Everyone had noticed this by now, having been curious as to why both mecha were not moving at all.
The energy of the energy protection wall was fluctuating like the waves. The big injection of energy had visually made the energy protection wall seem thicker, and even concrete-like.
This was… not prepared for SIG. This was a super weapon that was made for the sparring of stronger warriors. Little did they know that it would be used here.
"Your Runic Matrices are equally as effectively as those of our Atlantis civilization. I have to do my best in order to defeat you." Dina Atlas did not seemed fl.u.s.tered at all. He did not seem to be intimidated by w.a.n.g Zheng's Runic Matrices.
Only the Atlanteans were not shocked by w.a.n.g Zheng's Runic Matrices. It was obvious that they had absolute faith in their captain.
Rightly so. No one understood the Runic Matrices better than the Atlantean warriors.
w.a.n.g Zheng's Runic Matrices were very glamorous and the range was even bigger and more complex. However, was this all there was to the power of the runes?
The energy protection wall had been fully charged. It was obvious that both warriors were very confident and at ease. Confidence was obviously crucial in such a battle.
Suddenly, the entire arena was filled with the azure blue of water waves. This happened instantly. At the same time, the breaths of everyone seemed to have been captured.
The azure blue Rune Warrior exuded a G.o.d-like power. That spiritual power shrouded the entire arena, appearing high and mighty.
It was a spiritual power that sent chills down the spine!
On the big screens, a spiritual wave band character appeared — A
Since the start of SIG, someone with level spiritual power had finally appeared. It was from Atlantis' Sea Queen battle team.
This was the origin of the Atlanteans' confidence. An level power, at this place. This was the dominating level of spiritual power!
It seemed that there was only one level between A and B. However, they were actually worlds apart, like heaven and earth. When mankind's spiritual power reached level, it meant that he would possess the possibility of a.s.saulting Heaven-rank!
Heaven-rank… it was like the existence of G.o.d. In this era, this was a terror status equivalent to nuclear deterrence.
Yet, at only twenty-five years old, Prince Dina Atlas had already reached level spiritual power!
The dominating level of the spiritual power compressed w.a.n.g Zheng's controlling territory in an instant. One by one, w.a.n.g Zheng's spiritual marks that originally covered the entire arena were now slowing being wiped off. The entire arena had now fallen into the hands of Dina Atlas.
