Chapter 452: A Royal Gift

Translator: AbyssrulerEditor: Lucas

The Solar System suddenly became popular. Even Zhang Shan, whose level was actually slightly below average, received respect. The overall execution ability of the Solar System team was very high, and it was not just based on Wang Zheng alone; he would not have made it to this step.

They were a popular topic amongst the generals as well. These last few years the Solar System Federation had been looking to revitalize. They had been saying it for so many years, but there were no real changes. They were always lagging even in the military procurement aspect. The reformists in the military wanted to get rid of old equipment, but the budget proposal could not pass parliament. On the whole, the Solar System's own production of mecha had already failed to fulfill demands. The level in general was lagging behind, and if they wanted to raise the level, they would have to import. However, the parliament always had a reason to reject such ideas, largely because they wanted to protect the benefits and profits of their own military production facilities. Once they started importing, their losses were quite substantial, but to the reformists, what they wanted was the rise of the Solar System and increased right to speech.

Riding on the high wave of this round's IG, the military also hoped to reach a procurement agreement with Aslan. Even if the parliament wanted to stop it, they were powerless to do so. Just thinking of how a large supply of new weaponry could equip their elite troops, Meng Ao and the others could not help but feel excited.

Especially Meng Ao, as the dominating role of Earth was very important to Earthlings. Wang Zheng and Lear had done it, they were the true twin Gemini. As for the competition amongst the youths, from Meng Ao's perspective, he of course felt that it was a good thing. At the end, they still had to cooperate to defeat Atlantis.

The significance of defeating Atlantis was too great. This was the real reason why others looked at them differently. The Solar System was weak for too long. If they did not perform strongly, it would be difficult to have such an effect.

Of course, things never happened overnight, so not much could happen just based on one IG, but it was a very good beginning.

As soon as he thought of that rascal Wang Zheng, Meng Ao could not help but laugh. "I originally wanted to introduce Meng Tian to him, but it looks like I have belittled him."

"Haha, I thought that I was the only one who wanted to match-make him and Lie Xin." Lie Wuqing also laughed. He had not been so happy for a long time. As a soldier, his face and glory were too important. He never thought that this day would come, that the Arbiter and Manalasuo generals would socialize with them. This was really something that they did not even dare to dream of.

The stronger the country, the more emphasis they put on cultivating the young. This was also the reason why they were respected.

"I said it, that rascal Wang Zheng is our lucky star!" Meng Ao laughed.

"You are right. Even I feel like I'm in a dream," Drachmach said emotionally. Achilles did not become weak. It was already very surprising that he could force Bordia to use his full strength. But who would have thought that Wang Zheng could reach such a level, totally masking the glory of the others?

But this rascal's level of wooing girls was most likely even better than his mecha piloting level. How did he make the Aslan Princess fall in love with him?

The three generals looked at each other and could not hold back their laughter. After all, they were young once too. Wang Zheng, that rascal, they really were at loss on how to describe him.

After Olivios returned, he did not do anything. He only asked for the video and shut himself in the tactical hall and watched it silently.

Again and again, gradually, his whole person was as though he had entered the video and he became Bordia. If it were him, how would it end?

Bordia did not underestimate his enemy. He used his full strength when attacking, even when Wang Zheng's energy shields were totally used up. This could be seen from the aggressive and accurately timed attacks. Bordia had taken this opponent seriously from the beginning. But what the humans or Atlanteans could never control was confidence. He was overconfident.... Perhaps Wang Zheng was too strong. The series of actions appeared in Olivios' head. If it were him, would he have been able to evade?

A whole half an hour had passed and Olivios did not move. Beo appeared and stayed quietly at a side. The others waited outside. They knew that Olivios was going through an imaginary battle. While they were not clear on the actual situation, Olivios could use this method to crack any opponent's attack.

Including the ability that targeted the Atlantean mech.

After a while, Olivios slowly opened his eyes.

"How was it?" Beo asked anxiously. Olivios went over the imaginary battle. Beo watched him quietly again. As he watched, his heart turned cold.

Olivios laughed, but Beo's face darkened. "How is this possible?"

"Haha, I also think that this is unbelievable, but there is no way to crack it. At that type of situation, no matter who it is, they would lose."

Olivios smiled brightly because he had finally found a situation he could not solve. This was something worth celebrating. His life was no longer lonely!

Beo could never understand Olivios' thinking because he was just an ordinary person. How to defeat Wang Zheng became the biggest difficult problem. Perhaps they could only hope that his injuries were too severe for full recovery?

Olivios' conclusion was that he had no confidence in the battle between him and Wang Zheng. But Olivios was definitely not one to back down from a fight. Winning or losing was nothing to him, what he wanted was that one battle.

Olivios looked at Beo calmly. "You don't need to think too much. Wang Zheng is unlikely to take part in the finals. Bordia's counter-attack was not light."

The video froze. At the last attack, Wang Zheng avoided all of Bordia's Phantom King's attacks and dealt a fatal blow. But Bordia himself had still activated the strongest spiritual explosion he could muster.

Based on Bordia's state, he could definitely not have controlled the move well. This was a move that hurt the opponent by 1,000 points but then hurt himself by 800 points. This was why Bordia could not withstand the aftershock and had fainted. But Wang Zheng, who had suffered a blow, actually still had strength to destroy the energy tower. He had really surpassed normality. But no matter how strong he was, he was still just a fleshy body. If Wang Zheng could jump around energetically the following day during the final battle, there was really no need for Olivios to fight at all.

The Solar System team members gathered. Other than those who were injured, the rest were present.

With Lear as the leader, along with Luo Fei, Masasi, Lie Guang, Taros, Meng Tian, and Zhang Runan. Zhang Shan and Achilles were also there, but they were barely able to fight. But Meng Ao did not intend to let them fight.

"Lear, for the finals, we will rely on the seven of you. Winning or losing is not important. We have already won."

Meng Ao would definitely not want to risk this group of hope for the Solar System's rise. Under this circumstance, if not for the fact that they could not surrender directly, they did not even intend to fight at all, especially against that bunch of crazy Arbiters.

"For the fight against Arbiter, you guys do not need to fight too hard. The important part is in the experience and battle practice. When it's time to admit defeat, just admit defeat."

Meng Ao said. It was really not easy to have a general say something like this. They had already proved their courage, so they did not need to use their lives again to prove these unrealistic things.

Lear nodded. "Yes, General. We will let Arbiter see our strength under safe circumstances."

Meng Ao smiled. Lear was usually reliable. When Wang Zheng was not around, he could pick up the role of the leader and there was no chaos.

"Little Fatty, you are not bad, just a little cowardly." Before leaving, Meng Ao patted Luo Fei.

Fatty Luo was the only one not injured. This guy was a living treasure. As long as he completed his own mission, he was unwilling to put in even one ounce of extra strength.

Being a hero was not a man's job. This was Luo Fei's motto. He would not be so narrow-minded. As long as he was alive, just getting by was good enough.

The other teams' members were all watching the replay. They could only get a basic understanding from watching the replay at the competition scene. There were a lot of details that they did not understand. Except that after they had watched the real situation, it was likely that many people would not be able to sleep tonight. To perform this type of technique, Wang Zheng most likely had trained with the Phantom King so much that his understanding of the mech was etched deep in his bones.

Aurora and Oz were stunned while listening to Si Jiali's report.

"What did you say? You saw him practicing with the Phantom King?"

Si Jiali nodded. To be honest, she did not really understand the underlying meaning to all this. However, from the reactions of the others, she also understood that this was something very shocking. All along she thought that the Princess' feelings for Wang Zheng were her own imagination. She did not think that it was real and that the two of them were really a couple.

"Why did you not say so earlier?" Oz could not help but grumble.

"Even if I said it, would there be any use?" Bi Yuyan rolled her eyes at Oz. "Who would have thought that the Solar System team would be so strong? And Si Jiali wouldn't know whether he was considered strong or weak."

Oz realized that it was him who was anxious. He quickly apologized, whether it was regarding Wang Zheng's ability or regarding the Princess' relationship.

The Princess was the goddess in everyone's hearts. The Princess falling in love with Wang Zheng was something that he could not adjust to.

"The Princess must have known Wang Zheng for a long time." Si Jiali sighed. She knew that Aurora and the others actually had secret crushes on Aina. This was definitely a big blow to them.

Aurora did not say anything. He gently sighed. He was not disappointed, just worried.

The whole night, Aina did not leave Wang Zheng's side.

But in the next morning, when Wang Zheng woke up, who he saw was actually Huiyin.

Seeing Wang Zheng waking up, Huiyin immediately jumped up. "You are awake. Cousin looked after you the whole night yesterday. She was just called away, I think it's something urgent, but I'll take care of you. You don't have to worry!"

Wang Zheng nodded. He had really fainted from happiness yesterday. He also did not think that Aina would be so bold.

Huiyin pouted and said, "Hey, what, not happy to see me? Tch, I'm also a princess, OK!".

"Hehe, our little princess Huiyin is the cutest."

"That's better. Oh, right, wait here." Huiyin opened her Skylink. Not long later, footsteps approached them from outside. Ye Zisu and Tyrant Su walked in.

"You see, I told you that I'm the most considerate," Huiyin said, hinting for credit. Originally, Yan Xiaosu and Ye Zisu could not enter this place, but with the Princess' orders, it was another matter. Aina might have to take note of her influence, but Huiyin did not care for that.

Tyrant Su rushed in very excitedly and directly... ignoring Wang Zheng. "Your Highness, I'm your fan, please give me an autograph!"

As he said that, he took out a pen and pointed to his stomach. "Please sign here."

Wang Zheng was stunned. He thought that Tyrant Su would rush in with tears in his eyes. What was this? Playing with a brother's feelings?

"You traitor, giving up your friends for a girl!"

Yan Xiaosu winked and said laughingly, "What, Boss, you can't give up the opportunity to socialize with your idol."

"He's an interesting fellow." Then Lin Huiyin really signed Yan Xiaosu's shirt, signing it to "Tyrant Su".

He could be considered to have been gifted a name by the Princess.
