Instantly, everyone burst into discussion. They all knew that Atlantis was amazing, but they did not have to belittle their opponents. This battle was equivalent to a Team Leader Heavenly Battle.
Most importantly, the one to meet the opponent was not even the team leader, nor was he the a.s.sistant team leader. They had simply a.s.signed one random member to face the opponent, and this random player still dared to challenge five in one go.
Even the generals in the Milky Way Alliance were whispering. What were the Atlanteans doing? Gemini was not weak to that point, and not to mention, Ao Ziwei had yet to be injured significantly.
However, the Atlantis team was calm. Of course, the young man called Millsap was also calm. Their faces showed no emotions. To them, it was just a battle.
The Gemini were completely riled up. Even if you were strong, you should not bully the Gemini. One against five, and you dared to send a random team member. This was unbearable!
Angered Gemini were definitely the scariest people.
They would not scold nor would they quarrel. They simply kept quiet!
Silent Gemini have entered the state of no return, the state of rising from the ashes. This battle was not going to end easily. Even if the mech could no longer move, they would crawl out and fight until their last breath.
Obviously, the Atlanteans did not realize this.
Millsap chose his mech – the Poseidon’s Ritual.
It was a rare mech. It was not as though they had never seen it, but humans were not familiar with many of the Atlantean mecha’s functions. On one hand, they did not even have access to them, on the other, even if they did have access, they could not use them to their maximum capacity. When the real ability of a mech could not be executed, it was just a piece of rubbish, just like the Golden Wheel. When you did not know how to use it, it was just useless, a failure. However, when w.a.n.g Zheng used it, it became a G.o.dly weapon. U.p..dated by ReadNovelFull.com
This Poseidon’s Ritual used neither beam sabers nor the rune sword. Instead, it used something like a scepter, engraved with runes, runes that were more complex than those on the rune swords.
“No sword. Is he going to use his teeth?”
“Are the Atlanteans too pretentious?”
“I can’t stand it. If I were a Gemini, I wouldn’t bear it. Even if I had to die in the process, I would kill them!”
“Why do I feel like there’s some plot involved? Perhaps it possesses devastating killing might?”
On one side, there was angry silence. On the other was calm silence. They did not even switch venues. The mech was quickly moved to the arena.
Five against one.
This was the weirdest heavenly battle in history, and the one to battle was not even the team leader.
This was even more of a show than the battles by w.a.n.g Zheng and Olivios.
If the Atlanteans could win even this, they would really be unbeatable. Everyone could just give up and go home.
Bang…
The battle began with a gunshot accompanied with the shout of Ao Ziwei. The female team leader of Gemini was really angry. Five mecha rushed towards their opponent. This was the rhythm of tearing their opponent apart!
The runes on the Poseidon’s Ritual suddenly glowed and flowed. The rune scepter on the mech’s hand also started humming.
Everyone at the scene felt the strong fluctuations of brain waves. Most of them possessed Ability X and were definitely no strangers to this.
Hao Lin smiled. “Actually, this model of Poseidon’s Ritual was based loosely on what you had come up with with your imagination. The effect seems quite good.”
Aina was stunned for a moment. She did not understand what this young boy was talking about.
The spiritual powers of Atlanteans were extremely strong, but they could not convert them to Ability X, which was power emitted by the human body with specific attributes. Instead, they showed their strength via runes.
The Poseidon’s Ritual started exhibiting a strange, blue glow. At the same time, Ao Ziwei and her team, who were rus.h.i.+ng full force forward, sensed that something was off. All five mecha were enveloped in the same blue pillar of light.
“Activate your energy s.h.i.+elds!”
Ao Ziwei responded very quickly, but the energy s.h.i.+elds did not change anything.
Five seconds later.
Weng…
The blue pillar of light exploded and the five mecha froze simultaneously. At this moment, they were only about seven or eight meters away from their opponent. They were almost within reach.
Immediately after, the mecha’s engines stalled.
The pilots must have lost consciousness completely. If they were not dead, they would be in a coma.
The audience fell silent.
At this moment, Ao Ziwei’s G.o.ddess of Victory moved. But it moved only a little bit. Following that was a helpless silence.
This was the final struggle of the Gemini.
What… the heck was this thing??? Was this the same thing that the Mayans had?
Other than the slightly different shape of the light effects, the results were exactly the same. No, it seemed to be even more powerful than what the Mayans had, because at the very least, Aurora and Oz were able to put up a decent fight. However, for this fight, Ao Ziwei could not even block it…
But this was just something very normal for the Atlanteans. The battle was over.
All the team members rose and bowed to their prince.
No matter who it was, when faced with such an opponent, they would be helpless to the point where they would simply feel like surrendering.
The audience looked at the Solar System Federation team with pity. At this moment, no one felt that it was a lucky thing for them to get into the semi-finals. Perhaps it may have been better for them to be eliminated directly.
Because it was impossible to surrender, it was inevitable that they would be taken out by the Atlanteans. Hopefully, based on the fact that they all originated from Earth, the Atlanteans would go a little easy on them.
Anyway, the Gemini were considered to have lost already. Whatever pride, whatever silence, whatever courage, the Atlanteans could beat you till you admitted defeat.
There was no one who could not be conquered. It was simply whether the Atlanteans were willing to or not.
They had sent a random person, and that person could defeat an entire team by himself. They were unbeatable.
However, w.a.n.g Zheng did not show much surprise on his face. He watched the battle seriously. This Poseidon’s Ritual was very interesting.
It should be very weak in close-ranged battles, and its weakness was very obvious. However, the runes on the mech were very interesting. They actually could lock onto an opponent within range. It was impossible to hide. The Gemini were knocked out directly by something similar to spiritual power.
Millsap’s spiritual power was quite strong, hence he could use this type of mech. However, the degree of his spiritual finesse and control could not compare to Bordia or Azhas. The next battle would not be easy. “It is still possible to win.”
“Hey, why do you all have those expressions?” w.a.n.g Zheng asked. He was puzzled.
The others looked at him like they were looking at a monster.
“You just said that we can win. Do you mean us winning against Atlantis?” Lie Xin asked. She was dumbfounded.
“Yeah, although it will not be easy, we should still have a 50% chance of winning.” w.a.n.g Zheng laughed.
All of them looked at w.a.n.g Zheng like they were looking at a monster.
“If we can win, I’ll be willing to do anything you wish.” Lie Xin laughed bitterly.
Lear did not say a word. Achilles was also under great pressure. The others had already lost all morale.
Everyone had their own trump card, but the problem was that when they were up against the Atlanteans, would they even have the chance to retaliate?
The final four strongest had emerged.
The Arbiter Republic team, the Mayan Empire team, the Solar System Federation team, and the Atlantis Republic team.
Arbiter and Atlantis were expected to enter the semifinals. The Mayan Empire was also a popular choice, but them making it into the semifinals was also quite surprising. It had always been the glory of Atlantis. The Mayan people, as a second civilization, had begun to rise too.
The Solar System Federation team was undoubtedly super unpopular. Them making it into the semifinals was already truly unbelievable. Even if their results spoke for themselves, it was still hard to imagine such a scene.
