Bang…
The two men landed on the ground. The two big swords struck each other fiercely. Although the energy ripples burst, they were insufficient to attack the realm of the giant’s lightning, nor the realm of the holy light of the runic mech.
However, the first layer of energy protection wall was on the verge of crumbling from the shocks generated by the cutting energy ripples.
The point where the two men landed cracked open like a spider web. The only thing that the engineers felt fortunate about was that the alloy material would not burst.
The battling style of the two men was different from regular Ability X. They had agglomerated their strength, creating an extremely strong compression effect.
Shing, shing…
Both of their swords parted at the same time. A ray of electric light struck out while the other ray of electric light also came out empty.
Ping…
The energy protection wall exploded. Mu Zhen’s physical body disappeared. The runic mech turned into a ray of light as well.
Boom, boom, boom…
Direct confrontation. The alloy sword and the Rune Sword struck continuously. Violent power blasted around the two, but neither of them retreated. After a few rounds of probing, they had a very good grasp of the situations. Ander Lucia was not even using the Runic Matrices. The speed of the Runic Matrices could no longer keep up with Mu Zhen’s speed. The speed of a mech was incomparable to that of a giant who was accustomed to the armour and with the acceleration of the lightning. The difference was worlds apart. A stronger power was thus required to defeat his opponent.
Dozens of frenzied attacks were launched in an instant. Everyone was stunned. Using the mech to make such a move was amazing enough, but the giant, who only had his armour, could withstand such attacks. How tough was this body?
Bang…
A heavy blow between the two and they bounced apart almost simultaneously. The difference in distance was barely ten meters.
Ander Lucia took a deep breath. A Runic Matrix appeared once again on his body. Another Runic Matrix appeared at the tip of the Rune Sword.
Mu Zhen raised his sword with both his hands. There was a look of determination in his eyes. The Titans would never doubt, they only knew to charge forward!
“From today onwards, the title of the bravest warriors will have to go to the Titans,” said Jondi Lilick softly. Using the physical body to confront a mech, even a super warrior would never even dare to think of doing this. Even if the attacking strength was sufficient, the defensive strength would be far from sufficient.
Bang…
Mu Zhen continued to charge forward fearlessly. The Runic Matrix on the Rune Sword was spinning in bright lights at this moment.
Brass Con Ide – Earthquake Energy Cannon!
Mu Zhen did not and could not evade. He could only charge forward at a time like this. No one could stop the sword of a Titan!
Kill!!!!!
A ray of white light burst, followed by an ear-piercing loud bang that shook the heavens and earth.
When everything had calmed down, the people saw two figures, both standing. The runic mech was in total disarray. Mu Zhen’s sword had already pierced into the mech, but in the end did not split it open.
The armour on the giant had already shattered. Blood had already stained the silver body red.
Who had won???
After a long while, the runic mech moved. Ander Lucia came back to his senses. It was a close shave. The energy cannon had destroyed the giant’s defenses. Otherwise, he would have been split into two by that strike.
After much effort, Mu Zhen was carried away by the emergency response team. Aslan doctors were completely shocked by the vitality of the giant. The energy cannon had not killed him. It was simply…
“Finally, someone has posed a threat to the Atlanteans. If the armour hadn’t been so fragile, the winner of this battle would yet be uncertain. I feel that a customised mech should be made for the Titans. We have seen infinite possibilities in today’s battle,” exclaimed Jondi Lilick.
Just then, the stretcher that was carrying Mu Zhen collapsed. Mu Zhen stood up steadily, looking everywhere for his sword…
The entire arena was totally stunned. What the hell? He was not hurt at all???
Mu Zhen was also somewhat shocked. He was just stunned by the energy bombardment and was knocked out for a moment. How was it that when he recovered, the match was over???
Ander Lucia was shocked too. Was he even human? NO, he was not a human to begin with. That head-on hit by the rune cannon had only stunned him a little…
However, the result of the battle remained the same. The winner of this battle was the Atlanteans.
The entire arena roared with cheers. However, most of the cheers were meant for Mu Zhen. Although he had lost, he had shown the world the true bravery of the Titans
The Titans were not the weak and primitive tribe that could be taken advantage of by people. They were quick to adapt to the Milky Way Alliance and found their path of development. After this match, the other countries would no longer dare to look down on the Titans. This was very important for the future development of Tita Star.
Only with their hard work and growth could they earn the respect of others.
At Tita Star, countless giants were feeling regretful too. But it could not be helped. The Titans now knew the gap between them and the humans. It was already difficult to imagine being able to battle like this.
However, very soon, the giants began to make countless exclamations and questions. This was because death was unavoidable after using life sacrifice. However, Mu Zhen had only wiped off some blood and walked down unscathed. It appeared that he had only suffered superficial injuries…
What kind of situation was this? What was happening here?
The Elders of Tita Star knew better now. Only with the ascending of God would the Silver Titan appear. Only if God had accepted the sacrifice would there be an undying body!
Although the silvery lustre had faded from Mu Zhen’s body, the tattoo-like lightning patterns were left behind.
News spread very quickly around Tita Star. The Titans exploded in loud cheers. It was as if they were the real winners.
However, this was of no use for the semi-final. Although Mu Zhen had put on a surprise performance beyond his level in the first battle, it still ended with a defeat. This had made the situation worse for Saruman Snake.
Mu Zhen was a little dejected too. Bowing his head he said,, “Ada, I’m so useless…”
Wang Zheng shook his head and patted Mu Zhen. “A real warrior can look defeat in the face. Defeat can make you even stronger. You have done very well. I believe that this battle will make the Milky Way Alliance recognize the Titans once again.”
Everyone was beginning to anticipate the second battle. At least from the first battle, it seemed that Saruman Snake had not given up yet. Besides, the members of Saruman Snake would, at every crucial moment, become tougher and not cowed. This was a stark contrast to the abandonment mentality of some of the other battle teams.
Whether they could win or not no longer mattered, but having the courage to fight or not was a matter of willpower.
Lie Xin was the only one who could take the stage in the second battle. Snow Li could not unleash her power when facing the agility of the runic mecha.
Li Xin took the stage. Honestly, Mu Zhen’s performance had both encouraged and pressured her. With the extreme pressure and the help from the others in the past ten days or so, Lie Xin had levelled up to Earth-rank. People tend to manage to achieve something under extreme conditions. They either extinguish in silence or explode in excitement. However, even after levelling up to Earth-rank, Lie Xin still lacked the confidence to confront the Atlanteans.
Although she was no longer a stranger to Runic Matrices after sparring with Wang Zheng, she could not achieve what Mu Zhen had achieved. The giants did not need to understand or comprehend. They only needed to feel the feeling of battle. This, instead, made it easier to understand. However, mankind could not do this.
Her confrontations with the Runic Matrices had not been good.
However, this battle was very important. Lie Xin was overthinking in this short span of time.
