Tempest of the Stellar War - Chapter 909

Chapter 909: 909

Wind God entered . The deep abyss’ terrain was completely unsuited for humankind’s mecha to fight in, especially in small skirmishes .

Wang Zheng was the king of the newcomers, the leader of Saruman Snake Battle Team . Presently, he was a hot favorite in the Greatest King competition . Interest in him was definitely high . Many did not regard him as a king at present, but only because he still needed to deepen his influence and networks . He was definitely the king of the newcomers . By right, people like Wang Zheng were precisely the ones who should watch their own reputation . Those who were regarded as kings had the bandwidth to make occasional mistakes without being too affected . The diehard fans would even find some excuse to explain the slip-ups . But if a newcomer king faltered, the blow to their reputation would be huge . Those who made their name for themselves, like Yang Pan, often did so because of their go-getter personality . Part of the reason was that Yang Pan was leaving soon, and therefore did not attract much attention anymore . As a result, the accumulated attention had been redirected to Wang Zheng .

In just a short while, the news had spread throughout the school grapevine . Wang Zheng was going to take on a deep abyss tentacle monster alone .

Saruman Snake Battle Team was not too bothered by this . Ai Xiaolu had merely notified those who were invested . This was Wang Zheng’s first major demonstration .

Wind God entered, and the deep abyss tentacle monster was burrowing over . This ground-type tentacle monster’s mid-air reach was not high, and was of a short stature as well, but it was especially savage . The moment it realized that the opponent was outnumbered or weaker, it would unscrupulously throw everything it had to tear its opponent to bits . As a result, everyone was reluctant to face such a monster alone in the simulated battles .

A paper mecha like Wind God would have its fragile energy shield smashed in the blink of an eye . And the magnetic energy source that gave Wind God its fame was mostly ineffectual when facing the tentacle monster . Many times, the pilot had already died by the time the magnetic energy kicked in . The tentacle monster loved this . After a group battle, it would shred the armor last .

Facing such a Zerg again, Wang Zheng felt something was amiss… This Zerg’s aura was not as strong compared to the one in the Rubik’s Cube . It looked similar, but there was a slight difference . Besides the queen Zerg, perhaps only Wang Zheng would be able to sense it .

“I’m interested to see exactly what kind of monster the Earthlings’ Wind God is . ”

“Haha, I wanna see how he plans to deal with the first round of onslaught by the tentacle Zerg . ”

But contrary to their expectations, the tentacle Zerg cautiously climbed out . The ferocious attacking posture had quickly shriveled up, and the way the tentacles waved displayed… a strong fear???

Wang Zheng’s Wind God unsheathed its titanium blade . His body and mind were already completely adjusted to deal with tentacle Zerg . He would never display emotion again . This was something that only humans could do, a forceful adaptation . As long as they did not die, they could use any rhythm .

Wind God advanced step by step towards the tentacle Zerg, the engine maintaining its normal output . But a strange scene was unfolding… as Wind God advanced, the tentacle Zerg was actually slowly retreating .

Zhang Shan and the rest were stunned… How could this happen? From the beginning, this crazy Zerg had been biting and chomping . For the Zergs to be afraid was unheard of .

Of course, this Zerg was not afraid, but had sensed a dangerous aura . It sensed a trap, but there was only one mecha fighter!

In truth, the Saruman Snake Battle Team members were nonplussed .

The fangs that covered the Zerg’s mouth were enormous . This was a deterrent, used to scare off formidable enemies . The Zerg sensed a dangerous aura emanating from Wang Zheng . Just the overwhelming and unshakable confidence alone was enough . Deep abyss Zerg, which had survived for so long based on their innate abilities, were especially sensitive to auras .

Wang Zheng was completely desensitized to this . The telling move of Zergs was different from humans . Unless there was something to be protected, like the Queen Zerg, the Zergs’ battle capabilities were extremely predictable . Wang Zheng might even know some of the Zerg’s moves better than its own mother did .

In an instant, the Zerg burrowed towards him .

At that moment, some of those who were still in class had been notified by their friends via Skylink, and a wave of surreptitious streaming spread across the school campus .

“D*mn, what the hell is going on?”

Solo facing a Zerg, and to actually intimidate it enough to burrow him . What was happening!

Wang Zheng was not in the least bit gratified . Such honor was hollow . The Zerg could indeed sense an uncontrollable murderous intent emanating from his body, but it did not mean he could slay the Zerg .

Shing…

The ground that Wind God stood on trembled slightly, and Wind God took to the air, its titanium blade flashing in an arc before cleaving down . In the same instant, the tentacle Zerg exploded from the ground, curled up . Countless fighters had fallen to this move alone, ground to smithereens . Those who had been on the receiving end before knew that this move was extremely sudden, and was packed with an intense kinetic energy . Save heavy armor, being shaken to the point of vomiting blood was already getting off easy .

But Wind God’s titanium blade connected cleanly with the shell, sending sparks flying . But this was just the beginning . In an instant, the curled up Zerg flung itself outwards, the 8 claws flashing out towards Wind God . This was the second barrage . Even if someone could avoid the first attack, this lightning attack enclosed one like a net, and was equally fatal .

Shing Shing Shing…

The magnetic energy source flew out, but Wang Zheng did not fly towards the magnetic energy source . Instead, he forced the mecha forward, charging towards the mouth of the Zerg . When the Zerg was in the midst of such an attack, it could not use its mouth cannon to attack .

Immediately, the Zerg retracted four of its tentacles to defend . Ting ting ting ting…

The titanium blade twisted and flashed, instantly batting aside four of the tentacles trying to stop it . A hard parry was useless, let alone trying to cut it . Against such things, one had to redirect the momentum, but one had to be fast!

Wang Zheng was already approaching the mouth, and the Zerg’s fangs retreated readily . Wang Zheng sighed inwardly . It could not be helped . The magnetic energy source answered, flying out suddenly . The Zerg turned half a somersault, revealing its back . At the same time, the 8 tentacles again formed a surrounding wall, but Wang Zheng had already flown out, batting away 2 tentacles that were trying to stop him .

Shing shing…

Two consecutive movements . Almost in the same instant that it landed, Wind God flew towards the Zerg directly . This speed was almost as fast as Zhang Shan’s warp .

Uppercut!

BOOM…

The tentacle Zerg was sent flying, but by the time Wang Zheng tried another attack, the Zerg immediately burrowed down again .

The entire crowd was silent . F*ck, his attack speed and reaction time were unnatural .

From the simulation’s release up till now, no one had ever made it this far .

BOOM…

The Zerg ferociously tunneled up again . The Zerg had clearly been beaten to the point where it was not thinking clearly . In contrast, Wang Zheng was very calm . The magnetic energy source instantly drew him away, but he did not engage immediately . This test was useless, he had to clash directly .

Wind God executed all kinds of weaving movements within the encirclement of the 8 tentacles . Wang Zheng was well versed with the moment patterns of the Zergs . Many were irrationally afraid of these soft weapons, and wasted precious reaction time on judging the trajectory . Once exposed, each movement could be easily predicted . Furthermore, soft weapons had their limits, because the Zerg itself had to avoid getting tangled up . The fact that no Zerg had ever tied itself into a knot was evidence that there was a limit to it .

Any thing that existed had its rules, and no rule escaped Wang Zheng’s analytic abilities .

BOOM BOOM BOOM…

The titanium blade danced, the counterattacking blade was completely defensive . This was also the best method . Wang Zheng knew that he must close in in order to deal with the Zerg . What he had to watch out for was a certain spot where the Zerg had a sure-win angle, where he would die without question . But as long as he avoided this spot, the Zerg would not be able to finish him off .

And Wang Zheng’s problem was that the Zerg had a sure-win spot, which constantly appeared . Although he had a high possibility of avoiding it, but he could not find its counterpart – his own sure-win angle .

This was something that one person in one mecha would not be able to achieve . His present mastery of the mecha abilities was still not perfect .

Wang Zheng avoided the Zerg’s attack again, and Wind God kicked out at the Zerg, although he did not press the attack . This was a trap . Such an attack was ineffective against the Zergs . The magnetic energy source kicked in, and he left in a flash . As expected, the Zerg rolled over after the kick, and immediately pounced again .

BOOM…

The earth split, and the Zerg disappeared again .

Wang Zheng’s Wind God stood silently, but the whole school was shocked . Was he really doing this?

This Zerg that slaughtered people without a thought?

Zhang Shan was spluttering . He finally understood that he and Wang Zheng were using completely different mecha .

Only in Wang Zheng’s hands, could the mecha truly deserve the name of Wind God .

Godlike control, flitting about like the wind . If Wang Zheng became a scout, his opponents would definitely be extremely afraid .

BOOM…

The Zerg was on the offense again, but Wang Zheng seemed to be able to see the future . He accurately judged the landing point, and was even able to predict the following attack pattern .

Wang Zheng’s judgement was based on the movement of the Zerg’s fangs . This was a detail that the Zerg was unable to change . After countless attempts, the Zerg would definitely expose this . But such a detail was often noted in passing, but unable to be applied . In the heat of a real battle, one barely had time to react, unless it became instinct .

The hellish feeling left even Wang Zheng repulsed .

But in exchange, one could move freely in battle .

The Zerg was hapless against Wang Zheng’s Wind God . The Wind God passed through the tentacle Zerg’s attacks, at times even cutting at it or kicking it . But the Wind God’s battle power was clearly insufficient to finish it off . Although the Zerg was frenzied, but its emotional response was relatively muted, which meant that it would not display “mindless” clawing .

Just like that, the two exchanged blows for over half an hour .

Wang Zheng’s stamina was holding up well . The Primordial Regression Technique was executed well, and because he had no chance, his control was also fairly good . There was no end to this approach, but Wang Zheng knew that at the end, the Zerg held the advantage . He had tested this before, and the one who perished was inevitably the human .

But the system halted the battle, because the time allocated at the start had been half an hour . For anyone else, the battle would have ended before then already .

Butcher was watching intently from the lab . He knew what Wang Zheng lacked!

Perhaps he did not even need a Battle Team . Perhaps he stood a chance of accomplishing it regardless .
