Tempest of the Stellar War Chapter 1153 – Guillotine

Chapter 1153: Guillotine

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

The first battle of the quarter-finals was held in Aslan Royal College’s largest royal arena. The team leaders and the tactical personnel of the representative teams from all the countries were busier, even if the team members had already returned home. They were responsible for the things behind the scenes. It was also an opportunity for each country to demonstrate their true strength at this stage. The VIP area was filled with military and political officials from various countries. Kashawen was not present. Instead, President Lin Hong was present. Such status was adequately significant.

The four cute girls from Resonance got VIP seating too. They actually longed more to watch from the competitors’ seats. But their identities were too sensitive, so could only watch from the VIP seats. This was indeed not as convenient as Ai Xiaolu and Luo Er’s seats. But this could not be helped. The Resonance princesses sitting behind one of the Aslan teams would be unfair to other teams. The lively scene did not affect the warriors. Everyone was already mentally prepared at this stage. The honor would be to demonstrate their true strength during the battles.

Soulless battle team versus Imperial Glory battle team.

This was the battle that would allow Di Maria to prove himself. So far, the Soulless battle team was the number one battle team for Arbiter. It bore the hope of Arbiter. So long as he could eliminate the Soulless battle team, he would be famous throughout Aslan, leaving a deep impression on the Princess. Di Maria had never lacked ambition, just luck.

In the battle of the heralds, the Imperial Glory battle team sent out Heracles. Sending an Atlantian herald in the first battle was a typical strategy. It was a strategy to assess the depth of the battle team.

Although representing the Imperial Glory battle team, Heracles would not possibly cheat. As a warrior, he had to demonstrate his strength, even when battling Atlanteans; otherwise, it would mean losing the honour of Atlantis.

Heracles – Phantom King.

Aragorn definitely could not represent Warrior Soul College. There were only two reasons for a captain to take on the herald battle. Either he was too weak and wanted to take a gamble, or he wanted very much to capture the opponents’ captain.

The Soulless battle team sent on D. Noel. Wasn’t… this a tank?

Aragorn was expressionless. His choice was casual… It did not matter who would be sent on for the match.

D. Noel was expressionless, despite facing the “legendary” Atlantean. He chose Arbiter’s human-type mech – Guillotine.

Reserve versus the Phantom King.

Was this a tactic?

Clamours of comments arose among the crowds. In contrast to the agile Phantom King, the Guillotine appeared rather cumbersome. This mech seemed to conform to Arbiter’s style. Although it was the tank, its attacking ability was very intrepid. The weapon of choice was the overbearing double-hook hatchet. It was particularly prominent when matched against another tank. However, the flaw was also very noticeable, which was the lack of flexibility. While it had a natural advantage against other tanks, the disadvantage was very visible against other mecha. It was a mech that needed the coordination of a team.

Heracles did not care who was the opponent, nor the choice of the mech. He just needed to win this match.

Off the field, His Highness Aragorn, was watching. He needed to be the best version of himself, regardless of which team he was in.

The two mecha entered the arena, with two very distinctive styles. The Arbiters were rather reckless. Heracles had already proven his ability during the clash of the titans that he was a worthy contender of Wang Zheng, unless Aragorn was prepared to hand over this match. However, this was uncharacteristic of the Arbiters.

The Mayans had lifted their sanctions, so had the Atlanteans. They were allowed to freely release their spiritual power to communicate with the universe and unleash the mysteries of the runes. The power of the runes was stronger than the G-particles of the humans.

The Phantom King showed no hesitation, unwaveringly attacking Noel. The Guillotine showed no sign of evasion, an indication of self-awareness. When confronting the Phantom King’s attack, any wrong move would result in a faster death. The key to winning was the tank’s defence and the results of the counterattacks. Of course, it was too difficult to capture the Phantom King.

Growl.

The Phantom King split in two… The two mecha charged towards the Guillotine simultaneously. Bang, bang, bang…

The Rune Sword and the double-hook hatchet interlocked continuously. Noel was unwavering, and despite Heracles’ exploratory attacks, he only defended.

The Phantom King clearly took the offensive, using sufficient speed and agility to completely suppress the tank. The Guillotine was battered beyond defence and could not retaliate. Not only was the Phantom King quick, the tank’s defence was also passable. Although he wanted to attack, he was always a step behind. Moreover, the Phantom King’s energy swap was virtually impossible to defend against.

Despite continuously using spiritual blasts during their several encounters, Hercules did not achieve the desired effect he had hoped for. Noel’s mental defense was very resilient, and skillful, so the spiritual blasts had little effect. The Phantom Kings pulled their distance apart with two consecutive displacements.

To be capable of resisting his spiritual blasts, even if the opponent was not Earth-rank, he would have to have received considerable training in mental endurance, much like a robot.

Noel was expressionless in his cockpit. So were the members of the Soulless battle team. It was not unusual for the Atlanteans, as well as some people with powerful Ability Xs, to be skillful at mental assaults.

The runes of the Phantom King lit up. Immediately, the mech lifted into the air. The Rune Sword started burning with flames, showing the intense energy response. This was how Atlanteans harmonized with the universe. Their communication had no attributes. It was unknown why the Atlanteans could not comprehend the five elements. However, it did not mean that this energy was weak; they communicated with the original force.

The battle of the titans had already emerged. Any attack would basically be thwarted when confronted with this rune technique. The power of the runes displayed by the strength of Heracles could only be stopped by an Earth-rank warrior. It took Wang Zheng and his mech – the Annihilator – a great deal of effort to stop Heracles. Furthermore, it was because the Annihilator had better displacement, as well as the superiority of Wang Zheng’s Ability X.

Rumble.

The Phantom King attacked. The sword, burning with black, rune energy, had become very lethal. Separation!

Attacking simultaneously, the Phantom X’s Cross locked up.

When Wang Zheng used the Annihilator to evade, it was a complicated maneuver technique, and this technique could not be performed by a tank. Even if it could, that speed was a completely different concept. What the hell were the Arbiters thinking?

If he had wanted to surrender, he should not have pretended to be self-righteous. Heracles was indeed the best in Atlantis. With the terrifying power of the Rune Energy Shield, he did not care about the opponent’s attack, which was what was truly terrifying. This had also been verified during the battles of the titans.

The avatar and the physical body attacked at the same time. The Guillotine made only one accurate choice… open the energy shield.

The tank’s energy shield could withstand the attack. But… bring it on!
