Where did he get the confidence?
This was something that could not be explained by physics. Some mechanics had calculated it, and at most it had a 70% chance of success. This meant that there was a 30% chance of failure.
Zhang Shan was not proud. He was already entirely immersed in the battle. He was so focused that only Sweeney was left in his eyes. This was his test, his barrier, a barrier that he needed to cross.
The beam saber followed closely with a stab, but Sweeney immediately became invisible. The mech could not disappear immediately, but it could cause visual confusion. It was an instinctive reaction to pause upon losing the target. Zhang Shan’s sword still swung out, but upon hearing the sound, he knew that Sweeney blocked it. With the sound of the mech moving, Sweeney disappeared.
This was a battle, a life or death battle between Asura and Saruman Snake. It was not an individual challenge. Besides, scouts never had any chances at individual challenges. After the Soul Reaper moved swiftly to a building at the side, it was from this moment that Zhang Shan had become her prey. She wanted to use the most despicable and cold way to assassinate her opponent and no longer fought head on.
At this moment, Sweeney really started to be serious. As a scout, the first thing to learn was to hide herself. Zhang Shan only had one more warp left, and her Ability X could still be maintained for a long time.
This was adapting to change.
This was something Aslan did not have. They knew how to clash fiercely when faced with sudden changes but did not know how to be flexible. You only had to make slight changes and the opponent’s strength would instantly become a weakness.
This was Arbiter’s true pathway to strength.
The Wind God did not give chase immediately. A scout’s showdown required calmness. He activated the magnetic source and the Wind God rushed towards the side.
Psychological warfare, because Zhang Shan knew that Sweeney was even more anxious than him.
The heavy mecha battlefield’s situation was very unexpected for everyone. The great strength and amazing wind attribute of giants felt like an advantage. But Mu Zhen… was beaten like a dog, a very big dog.
The Giant mech was flipped again and again by the Ox Demon mech. The audience finally saw Mu Zhen’s true weakness. Giants loved to win in one blow. That meant fierce power with the momentum of the wind to blow away the opponent in one go. But Mu Zhen was not facing a log nor a mountain. It was a mech warrior. As long as the first fierce attack was evaded, the Giant mech’s numerous weaknesses became obvious. Faced with Beo, a heavy mech warrior who had enough strength, and also very mature techniques, Mu Zhen had no chance.
His so-called strength was because he had not met with a more powerful opponent. Beo was also using his actions to teach everyone a lesson on how to educate giants!
Do not be tricked by appearances, Use technique to educate the opponent into a silly big fella!
Mu Zhen’s sword missed again. Once he missed, the Ox Demon mech would immediately charge and attack. It was the exact same move, to knock him off balance, a continuous attack and then blast him away.
Perhaps the designer of the Giant mech considered the foolishness of giants. Hence the energy shield was really especially thick. And these foolish, clumsy giants really only did one smart thing, and that was to activate their shields.
Hitting his target again and again, even Beo could not hold back and laughed lightly. He had overestimated these giants.
Their techniques were so pathetic. Perhaps this giant was considered more smart and agile, but his instincts could not be changed. Beo would not go near the giant when he could not see clearly. That was still very dangerous. He was digging away the opponent’s defense and morale bit by bit.
While a giant’s body was hard enough, the recoil from an equal strong knock was also significant. He did not believe that giants were made of iron and steel. Obviously, the other party’s speed was already reducing. His movements were slowing and he could no longer use his Ability X easily.
He was a living being and would be tired. Besides, grit and intelligence belonged to humans. The most obvious discovery was that at the start, Mu Zhen’s attack style and angle were more acceptable. It was obvious he had learned them. Towards the later stage, he was relying entirely on instinct.
“Wang Zheng most likely made the wrong plans.”
“They might as well let Takumi have a go. Takumi and Beo would also at most be a 40-60 chance. At least it’ll be less pathetic than this.”
“So he really is just a big block. I thought that the giants’ era was really coming.”
“Aren’t you talking about the Jurassic age, hahaha.”
The feeling of beating up the big block was still very good. People liked to watch this type of scene. It was similar to a bull fight.
Mu Zhen stood up. His opponent was very strong. He was prepared. Elder Mu Sen had said before that the world outside was very big, that humans were stronger. There were many kinds of powerful people, and their power was something giants could not learn. But there was one thing humans did not have, that was the faith of the giants.
No matter what lay outside, he would defend himself. Even if he failed, he also wanted to tell these humans what a giant truly was!
Mu Zhen threw away his big sword. Everyone was stunned. Was he being unreasonable? Or throwing a tantrum? He did not even want his weapon?
Was he surrendering???
Many people laughed. Countless academies were watching this scene. This type of laughter… was belittling. They were laughing at Mu Zhen, laughing at Wang Zheng, laughing at Saruman Snake!
On Titatitan Star, after eating, Lear sat down and meditated. Fatty was beside him and laid on a tree branch. He secretly looked at his Skylink. He was speechless when he heard that Mu Zhen threw his sword away. Thinking about it, it made sense. While he was big in size, to the Tita citizens, Mu Zhen was actually just a child.
He looked at Lear, who was at the bottom of the tree. Tsk tsk, Boss was also cool. He could actually cut off his curiosity. He could not hold back no matter what. Fatty also liked gossip and rumors.
The Aslan team members also laughed. They whispered amongst themselves. They seemed to find some comfort in the sad state of Saruman Snake.
HOOTA!
Aina did not laugh, because she did not think that this was something funny. Huiyin did not laugh. Her tiny fists were clenched tightly. She had visited Tita Star before. She had seen giants. The others did not know, but she knew. This was a race that valued the honor of brave men much more than lives.
HOOTA!
There was an explosive roar of thunder, and the Giant mech rushed towards the Ox Demon mech in big steps. Having a loud voice would not scare anyone. This type of tactless frustration would only cause him to lose faster.
His whole body was full of weaknesses. Beo waited calmly.
The Giant mech actually rushed towards the Ox Demon mech after losing its big sword. Its roar was frightening, but it was useless.
The Ox Demon mech nimbly evaded the tackle of the Giant. You had to know that Beo was a warrior and was quite well versed in all the techniques.
However, this time, danger alarms were ringing. After his attack missed, the Giant mech actually turned back and tried to grab his opponent. Beo immediately cut in. His moves always had some leeway so that he could make a second attack.
Hong…
When the Giant turned, his center of gravity was even more unstable and he fell with a large crash.
Everyone burst into laughter again. This was practically like walking a dog.
It was more thrilling at the scouts’ battlefield. The Flaming Elite Guard wanted to go near and Simba was sniping. While Lie Xin’s physical techniques were good, speed was not what she was good at. Simba obviously had researched Lie Xin. To be precise, the Asura Battle Team had analyzed the technical characteristics of every single member of Saruman Snake.
Cultivation techniques were all fixed. When it was fixed, there would be habits, and a sniper was most adept at handling this. Lie Xin was only one street away from her opponent, but that was already a distance of life and death. Her Flaming Elite Guard had already suffered two shots. Luckily, one of them was not a direct hit; otherwise, her energy shield would have exploded.
Such an environment was actually not advantageous for a scout to go after a sniper. Besides, Simba had no intention of escaping at all. Faced with such a showdown, the sniper similarly had no ways of retreating. It was either kill the scout before it got near or kill her when she was near.
There was no other choice, no paths for retreat!
