Chapter 2.9
Every person in team China was attempting to become stronger, and were slowly doing so . It was perhaps due to preparation being the key to success . After accumulating so much for so long and silently gaining strength, they finally had a qualitative change before the final battle . Team China’s strength… was worthy of being hailed as among the top three in God’s Realm . They were much stronger than imagined!
“Yes . Our team China is stronger than we imagined . ” Honglu muttered to himself .
As team China’s strategist, Honglu’s intelligence far exceeded ordinary people although he was the inferior strategist . Not even Xuan would deny this . Thus, in all matters, he needed sufficient understanding when it came to the team’s situation before the final battle .
Actually, Honglu was exhausted . Although he was a strategist too, he was still much inferior to Xuan . This was something he couldn’t deny . So, he had to think about much more things, which made him even more tired, such as the comprehensive evaluation of team China’s strength . He didn’t know which tier exactly Zheng’s power fell into .
“If our format for the final battle is king vs king and soldiers against soldiers, I’ll exclude Zheng from the team’s evaluation . No matter how strong he is, before he handles his clone or his clone kills him, he won’t have a way to help us . In other words, the final battle is a battle where we lack Zheng . ”
Honglu pinched his hair as he made corrections on the paper . However, after writing some things, he would crush the paper and trash it in dissatisfaction . Then, he would start writing on paper again .
“It can’t be calculated so . I should take him as an influencing factor . If we defeat team Devil and team Celestial first, the remaining team members will help Zheng gain the victory for the final battle, then challenge his clone together . If he defeats his clone first, it’ll be him helping us . But considering the gap between his clone and him… no matter how it’s evaluated, his influence is negative . Isn’t our burden even greater?”
Honglu grabbed his head in vexation, then shouted out as he crushed the paper and threw it in the trash again . When he extended a hand to grab another sheet of paper, a white hand grabbed his arm .
“Xiao, time to eat . ” It was a pretty woman, that was of the big sister type . It was the big sister who had taken care of him when he was being researched on in the neurological institute . When he entered God’s Realm, he had created her anew . Although he hadn’t had any profane thoughts at the beginning, there had still been the subconscious thought of ‘It’ll be nice if she loved me’ when he created her .
As expected, this big sister really loved him . Unknowingly, something had sprouted between the two . . .
Honglu rubbed his head in distress . “Alright! Alright! I’m coming!” Just as he finished speaking, the pretty woman hugged him . He didn’t resist, just silently leaning against her chest . “Recently, there’s been so many matters . It’s also related to the final battle, so I keep forgetting the time to eat . You can eat first, you know? I’ll come over when I’m done . ”
“Silly fool…” The woman smiled . “Eating without you there only fills up the stomach . What’s the point? Are you still worried for the final battle?”
“Yes . No matter how I calculate for the final battle, our team is just too lacking compared to team Devil . Ignoring everything else, I have no idea how to scheme even just for their ability or item to observe the other teams . So…” Honglu murmured worriedly .
The woman cut him off, smiling, “How about Xuan? What are his thoughts?”
“That no-nonsense man? Even if he has a decision he wouldn’t tell us . So, for the final battle…”
The woman cut him off again . “There aren't so many ‘so’s . Let nature take its course . Haven't you already fulfilled your responsibilities? You’re more hardworking than most of team China . Even if the final battle is lost, you have nothing to be guilty about . ”
“While that’s so, If I do lose and die, we won't be able to be revived any more . You’ll die too . ” Honglu sighed .
“But I won't be lonely in the least . If I do die, won’t you be at my side?”
“Yes . My responsibilities have been fulfilled . If I do die… I’ll be dying by your side . ” Honglu’s eyes shone, as if some resolve had appeared in his heart regarding the final battle .
***
Every person of team China were working hard to become stronger and making preparations for the final battle . As their preparations finished, the time for the final battle slowly approached . A day and night were left from that day now .
“Then, I’m going to Lord of the Rings . I’ll rest a day after returning . Then, everyone will prepare to enter the final battle!” Zheng smiled as he said this to everyone . Today was the day he entered Lord of the Rings for training . The whole team, minus Yingkong who no one knew the whereabouts of, were all gathered and looking at him . They were watching him grow stronger, until he could rival his clone .
“But why Lord of the Rings? Isn’t Starship Trooper’s atmosphere of mortal danger better?” Heng asked uncomprehendingly .
“That’s because what I need isn’t battle . ”
Zheng didn’t turn his head back . He looked at God, his back facing everyone as he said, “I need insight . The peaceful and vast Lord of the Rings is actually more suitable . Then, I’m going . Don’t worry, I won’t let you all down! I won’t lose again to my clone in the final battle . This time . This time I’ll definitely win!”
“God, exchange entry to…”
