The golden Runic Matrix at the feet of Wang Zheng suddenly spread out throughout the arena.
Haemil — Space Aisle!
The five Atlantean warriors were on high alert. Wang Zheng's Space Aisle covered the entire space. They could not determine his movements. But they knew that Wang Zheng was already a spent force. This was Wang Zheng's final struggle. Just as Ander Lucia has predicted, Wang Zheng could no longer use his Compound Power. It was impossible for him to try to use physical techniques to take down five Atlantean warriors!
"For the glory of Atlantis!"
Roar… Roar~~
The spiritual powers of the five suddenly burst, and their spiritual powers did not conflict with each other. Instead, they formed a web; a web that enveloped the entire arena. Regardless which direction Wang Zheng would appear, they would perceive it immediately!
Step by step, a suffocating pressure spread from that broken mech. Ander Lucia and the other four also felt the unseen pressure. Involuntarily, the suffocating power of Wang Zheng appeared in their minds. Defence was all they could think about. Defence. Must defend.
The Rune Warrior disappeared!
Where was it? Where was it? Where was it?
In the center!
Suddenly all five reacted. Wang Zheng was moving to their center. Was he trying to be someone's cat's paw?!
With their tacit understanding from long term combat training, combined with the spiritual resonance of the Atlanteans, no words were required. They reacted in an instant.
Wang Zheng appeared. The five Rune Swords, burning with the fiercest original force, struck down simultaneously on the spot that Wang Zheng landed.
Time seemed to have stopped at this moment. Was this Wang Zheng's final choice?
Seeking death?
Everyone's expressions seemed to have been frozen at this moment. For some reason, Lear felt a sense of loss. Wang Zheng was dying, but not by his hand. There would be no one else to bother him anymore. But he felt somewhat upset!
But… upset was one thing, it was better that he died.
Wang Zheng's Rune Warrior appeared. One arm, one Rune Sword, no matter what, he could not defend against five swords. Maybe he could stop one. But Wang Zheng did everything. He just watched the five swords strike down.
…
An unknown number of people closed their eyes, not having the heart to watch this scene. Did he have to be struck down by these swords?
It was dead silent in the arena. The five Rune Swords struck down squarely on the Rune Warrior. But there was no sound of explosion.
There was golden lightning on the surface of the Rune Warrior. These electric lights followed the five Rune Swords and at the same time enveloped the mecha of the five Atlantean warriors.
An enormous spiritual power appeared in the air. Suddenly, dark clouds covered the sky and darkened the sky. Extremely powerful wood element.
The expressions on the faces of Ander Lucia and the rest changed. Their powers were slipping away very rapidly!
Wang Zheng was absorbing their power!
The wood element of the five elements — Devourment!
This was Lear and Luo Fei's killer move. Lear wanted to kill himself now. If he had known that Wang Zheng would learn it, he would rather die than use it.
Ander Lucia and the rest did not panic. At a time like this, the Atlanteans would go all out too. Spiritual powers flowed out violently. Bolts of lightning shrouded Wang Zheng's Rune Warrior.
Wang Zheng's entire body was exuding electric lights. Everyone seemed to have seen this before.
Aragorn!
Among Wang Zheng's five elements, other than fire and ice, it was wood. This was his last base card.
Salute to Aragorn — King of Thunder!
"Retreat!" roared Ander Lucia. Their spiritual powers blasted at Wang Zheng, attempting to shake off from him. At this moment, five thunder balls had already enveloped the five Rune Warriors. Torrential rain started to pour.
It was too late.
Wang Zheng's feet shone brightly. The left hand, the only one that could move, flung violently and countless golden thunder balls blasted out.
RUMBLE… Rumbling…
The golden balls collided and shot violently, instantly blasting towards the five Rune Warriors.
In the air, a golden light struck down directly. Suddenly, the golden balls exploded into countless golden lights. Buzzing…
An energy shock ripple swept towards them with great strength and vigour.
Bang…
Thunder-like sounds were heard in the sky…
On the ground, the six Rune Warriors stood still. Their spiritual powers had all disappeared and they could not feel any ripples from the original sources. The sky reverted to normalcy and looked clearer.
The entire world was silent, silently waiting
All six Rune Warriors were in shreds and patches, as if they would crumble in the wind.
Suddenly, the Rune Warrior in the middle began to shake a little, tottering.
Wang Zheng was finally falling. Yan Xiaosu's mind went blank. Tears could not help but flow down from the fat guy's face. But Brother, it was not a loss to have come this far.
Achilles hailed a deep sigh and closed his eyes. This was enough, Captain. It was enough to have come this far.
Kashawen could not smile. She knew this would happen. Except she had caused this herself. There was a time, when she was younger, where she had hoped for a man that would fight for her like this. But the man gave up. Now, she had done the same thing.
Life was not a bed of roses.
She took a look at her tearful daughter. This lass. Perhaps she had also fallen for Wang Zheng for some time now. But Huiyin, even if you could, Aina could never. She was the future of the Aslan Empire. A queen could never be happy. Because happiness meant weakness.
Growling… Growling… Shing…
Everyone was stunned. The Rune Sword was dug into the ground, supporting the tottering Rune Warrior.
Wang Zheng… had not fallen.
At this same time, the five Atlantean Rune Warriors fell one after another.
The entire world seemed to have frozen at this moment in time. Everyone's hearts were beating very rapidly, completely uncontrollable. It was as if they would jump out of their chests.
Could this… be real???
"The Sea Queen battle team has lost consciousness. Saruman Snake… wins!" This was the voice of General Marshall. The general's voice sounded somewhat emotional. He did not think that he could witness such a battle in his lifetime. Did this guy know not what despair meant?
No one reacted even after a long time.
"Dear, slap me. Did I hear wrongly?"
"I think I heard something. Who won? Is the outcome out?"
"Do you dare to open your eyes and speak?!"
"No… I don't dare to…"
Jondi Lilick was too stunned to speak. Si Jiali, who was beside him, stood up. "The Saruman Snake battle team wins! Wang Zheng has won!"
In the next second, the entire audience in the arena stood up. Thunderous cheers resounded through the skies. These cheers immediately spread out to the outside of the arena, throughout the entire Aslan, and the entire Milky Way Alliance.
Have we won, have we won?" Chen Xiu hugged Yao Ailun and could no longer stand up. This fellow was crying like a baby.
"We've won!" Yao Ailun lifted his head up. He would look cooler crying like this. Damn! It is great to live in this era!
"Wang Zheng… Wang Zheng… Wang Zheng… Wang Zheng… Wang Zheng…"
It was not known who started shouting first, but at this moment, the only name in the entire Milky Way Alliance was this name.
That was a fellow named Wang Zheng!
The second match of the semi-finals had ended. Saruman Snake had miraculously turned the tides against Atlantis' Sea Queen battle team. After four years, Atlantis had fallen once again in the semi-finals. History had repeated itself.
Everyone could not suppress their fanaticism. Such miracles only happened once every few centuries!
Wang Zheng had done it!
At last, Aina could not help but cry too. She knew that Wang Zheng could do it!
Kashawen could not speak. Right now, she felt a sense of hopelessness. Was she wrong?
This was the first time she ever doubted herself since she became the prime minister.
In the stand, the giants led by Rara Durai were roaring towards the sky. They were leaping together. This was a custom of the Titans. They were singing the songs of the Titans, offering a triumphant compliment to their Ada.
"Have we won? Did the boss win?" Yan Xiaosu closed his eyes.
Beside him, Ye Zisu could not help but laugh out. "You can open your eyes now. We have won!"
"Great! Damn! This damn guy actually won. He's indeed my boss. We are destined to rule the universe!"
"Brother Yan, bring me along. I want to rule the universe as well." Jasper could not describe how he felt now. How the hell had he lived previously? Destiny had been kind to him.
The Atlanteans were being carried away. Frankly speaking, the performance of the Rune Warrior was indeed excellent. Had it been any other mech, it would have exploded. Wang Zheng had stepped out as well.
He did not seem to have any ounce of strength left, but he seemed to want to say something. The medics on the side did not hesitate to give him the microphone.
Suddenly, like magic, the entire arena quieted down. Everyone was looking at Wang Zheng on the big screens.
"Lilick, you're wrong. Because… of them, I was able to persist till now… We are the Saruman Snake battle team!"
We are a team. We are brothers!
The world was drowned by the cheers…
Jondi Lilick was stunned for a moment. A smile broke on his face. He wanted to join this team as well.
Zhang Shan… We are in the finals!
