Chapter 1140: Suffocated
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
It was not to say that Luo Fei was very strong. A small advantage in such a duel was meaningless, but such suppression demonstrated one thing. Luo Fei was actually a person of such skill???
How many people present would be able to move their lower body while fighting head-on and exert strength at the same time?
Luo Fei was not dumb. Having already kicked Mars away, he could feel the opponent’s resistance. This was the strongest opponent he had ever met, so he had to gamble with his life.
The Hercules was not even the slightest bit overstuffed or clumsy. Under Luo Fei’s frightening control, he chased at high speeds. Fatty was, after all, a scout since birth, so his knife skills were extremely vicious. Having him in the cockpit, it would be easy for him to hit the target. As everyone thought that Mars would continue to push forward, the Conqueror’s engine roared. With a forceful pull of tension, he abruptly counterattacked. His titanium blade slashed into the Hercules’ titanium blade, and at the same time, a punch rushed towards the Hercules.
Boom...
The Hercules sealed up Mars’ attack. Boom, boom, boom...
In almost in an instant, the two mecha consecutively delivered three lower body attacks. They were locked together and neither of them were compromising.
The titanium blades slashed apart abruptly, creating a chain of sparks. Mars had made the first move. It was yet again that type of move nearing craziness and unexplainable violent wind blade move which could easily destroy any rotten matter.
Boom boom boom...
Such an explosive and aggressive blade technique would completely cut off any chance of escaping death. It consisted of very simple vertical hacks, but it was unimaginably fast and vicious.
Yet Fatty was defending fastidiously. The titanium blade was thoroughly sealed off. Every slash was blocked off and the mech’s core remained unshifted. When Mars dealt out over twenty slashes, the Hercules slipped through a small opening!
—— Leaning Landslide!
Zhang Shan and the rest had their mouths wide open. This darn person, how did he do this?
His ability to grasp the correct timing was amazing. It looked as if Mars’ blade had hacked down swiftly, but during that stop to catch his breath, his speed had slowed down slightly. At the same time, as the Hercules charged towards him, regardless of whether Mars could hack down on him accurately or not, it would have been basically ineffective as the momentary explosiveness of the Leaning Landslide had been more stunning.
Mars’ reaction was of god-like speed. His left arm suddenly blocked it off horizontally... Boom
The mech was roughly pushed away into the distance. Luo Fei, who had executed the Leaning Landslide, had not done a head-on attack. Instead, he had conveniently performed a ground roll blade move, slashing towards the Conqueror’s thigh area. The lower body was far harder to defend than the upper-mid body.
Shing...
The Conqueror’s titanium blade suddenly pierced downwards, a sealing blade move.
The tip of the blade was obstructed by the tip of Luo Fei’s blade, producing an explosive blare. This was an extremely profound change, allowing Mars to escape a calamity. The distance between the mecha opened up.
Both of them adjusted their breath as Mars had just carried out a round of continuous attacks, while the explosiveness of strength had consumed a huge amount of Fatty’s strength.
Every team below was completely speechless. This... wasn’t this fatty just a mascot?
This damn fellow was actually an equal of Mars?
It could be seen from this match that regardless of strength, speed, battle tactics, and related experience, this fatty was not the least bit inferior.
Lear’s teeth grinded slightly. He knew it was not the moment to be happy yet, but this fellow sure could really endure.
Lear had felt that he himself had very good endurance, but up against Fatty’s wretchedness, he definitely paled in comparison.
Zhou Yun’s and the other two’s complexions were pale white. This was the “trash” that they had excluded. If Luo Fei was trash, then what were they?
After warming up, Mars had verified his conjecture, but it only meant that it was worth it for him to show his real skills.
The energy from the Heavenly Overlord Attack flowed through his entire body and a layer of silver radiance appeared on the titanium blade... Blade Aura!
However, the difference was that for Earth-rank warriors, they combined their inner and outer strength to form a presence that held actual killing power. What was contained internally made the titanium blade incomparably durable. But the heaven and earth strength that Mars attracted made the killing aura even more distinct. It was similar to a laser effect, but even more petrifying.
As such, the radiance was extremely pure and extremely eye-catching.
Mars had grown as well. Very few people present would have been able to execute such control.
The Hercules moved slightly, leaning forward faintly. And with a banging sound, a silver radiance floated to the surface, enveloping the mech, extending smoothly into the body of the blade. Blade Aura.
Had Luo Fei also entered Earth rank?
This was unfortunately a similar doubt that everyone familiar with him had.
Kill!
Kill!
Boom, the two mecha advanced abruptly at the same time, and the titanium blades hacked down head on. Boom, boom, boom...
The blade aura radiated all around, dispersing in all directions like a laser. The surroundings were in an uproar. The buildings had been pierced with many holes by the sputtering blade aura as if they were tofu.
Fatty clenched his teeth. This damned fellow was very aggressive and powerful, but he had to win. He had no other choice, this was the opportunity that he had to grasp. If not, he could only die.
No, if Boss did not want him, it would be even scarier than death. Since the day that Lear had beaten down those gangsters and picked him up, he had stopped knowing how to survive without Lear.
Hence, no one would obstruct him!
The titanium blade frantically attacked. Everyone who knew Luo Fei was stupefied. Was this the shameless scout?
Luo Fei had once earned the title of the best scout. The reviews were that he was shameless enough that he fully understood the essence of a scout. However, the Luo Fei in front of their eyes now was on a mad hacking attack, completely on offense against Mars.
The two of them were fighting with their lives, blade against blade. With such battle strength, neither of them could defend against each other’s blade. At the time, there would be no use for a defense; they would have to go full on offensive.
The uproar in the Milky Way Alliance’s military schools during the Wang Zheng and Mars battle had been due to the fact that they had displayed the most epic opposing attacks. No one had imagined that Elite Academy X had hidden many talented figures, but now another one had appeared.
Zhang Shan was stunned. This damned fatty’s martial technique was far above his. This damn fatty was already that skillful with a fusion of spirit and fighting skills and a blade aura that he had wanted even in his dreams.
It has to be known that if the capabilities were not there, their vital energy would have dissipated after a few confrontations. However, Mars and Luo Fei had already gone head-to-head with over fifty slashes, but their vital energy had not even weakened. Instead, it actually was climbing.
Boom...
A blade aura broke through the air. Wind-breaking Beheader!
Luo Fei had made the first move. Mars’ Conqueror slanted his body to make way for the blade instantly, using the smallest movement to avoid the attack to prepare for the counterattack. It was not that Mars was a coward, but his ferocious attacks relied on valiant steps as the foundation. As such, by allowing his opponent to attack, he could attain an unbreakable effect easily at the same time.
With a sideways movement, a disguise, and in a tiny, fragmented pace, the Conqueror’s titanium blade chopped down. Warping Beheader!
The problem, however, was that if Luo Fei had slipped first, Mars would be able to pressure his movements. Firstly, a blade move to prevent the Hercules from moving and then the Warping Beheader. It would have been the ultimate peak to the pinnacle.
Once Luo Fei had made his move and the Warping Beheader had been executed, he would have nowhere to hide unless he teleported... The Hercules’ left arm suddenly drew a circle.
Woom... Boom
The blade aura was blocked off by a silver vapor wall, and burst.
Fatty rapidly retreated, panting heavily. There was not a single sound coming from the venue. What the heck was that technique?
Only a small handful of people who had read through ancient martial arts or high level fighting skills knew that exerting out vital energy was the most energy-consuming thing, and defending was even more energy-consuming than attacking. It was a higher level to externally exert and save oneself in terms of defense.
The sudden exerted vapor shield had blocked off the blade aura. This fella’s fighting skills were powerful to the point that it raised people’s hairs.
At the very least, Mars did not know this move, and neither did Wang Zheng. Both of them were the same type – they focused on defense. However, Fatty was different. He was scared of dying, and as such, all the moves that could help protect his life, he was able to pick them up once he saw them, and even if he didn’t, he could figure it out on his own. The Ares Art was basically an infinite resource for him to achieve protection of his life.
It was just that this time, Luo Fei was still at a slight disadvantage. His vital energy was slightly more hurried and brief in comparison to Mars’. However, this fella’s toughness was beyond imagination; it was impossible to imagine how he had been able to accumulate so much fat even after cultivating to such levels.
Mars felt a bit regretful. This fella was a natural. Even Mars felt a bit jealous that such a lazy person could reach such levels. But his weak points were obvious/ The pinnacle of a warrior was in the offense, but this Fatty unexpectedly used so much energy on being wretched and defending.
The best way to secure one’s life was to finish off the enemy.
Shing, shing, shing...
Instantly, three blades slashed towards Luo Fei. Once the blade aura appeared, the heavens fell and the earth rend. Luo Fei could not retreat. This could not be blocked off, so at the same time, three blades struck outwards.
Rumble, rumble, rumble...
The blade aura burst open. This sort of martial technique that was delivered through fighting skills and fused with natural strength was already the ultimate ability of an X warrior. To be able to fight to such an extent, Luo Fei was undeniably an Earth-rank warrior!
Only Earth-rank warriors, mature Earth-rank warriors, had such degrees of integration and were at such levels.
At this moment, everyone had mixed feelings in their hearts, even complaining that God was not fair, that such a person could cultivate to Earth rank.
Di Maria felt as if he was eating sh*t. It was not just about Luo Fei’s ability, but also his own judgement abilities. He had always felt that Lin Feng and he were not that far off and both were aristocrats. Based on what grounds was Lin Feng so highly valued?
Now he knew.
At this moment, Lin Feng gently shook his head instead. “What a pity.”
He could feel the dangerous aspect of this fatty. It was not that he was scared of this fatty, but that knowing that he was not a small fry, he should be treated as an important opponent. But from the looks of it, this fatty rarely had any chances of being the main fighter. It has to be known that as a leader and as the main force, gaining experience was correlated with the battling method. This fatty was surely always the scout and rarely had to face strong opposition, and this would put him at a disadvantage psychologically.
The most important part was that the rhythm had been taken over by Mars, so it was only a matter of time before the defeat.
As expected, in the battle arena, the Conqueror was forcing the Hercules to confront him head-on. This was Mars’ rhythm and not Luo Fei’s. It seemed dangerous, but Mars had experienced such battles many a times. However, for Luo Fei?
Rumble, rumble, rumble...
In an instant, it was another confrontation of over ten blades. The blade auras were on a rampage and the surroundings were in an uproar. Pieces of stone filled the entire sky, but it seemed to not affect the two of them the slightest. Having insight on the surroundings was one of the basics of an Earth-rank warrior.
Yet up till now, the two of them had yet to use their Ability Xs; they have not even tried it. Actually, as people get closer to this rank, they would become more aware that they should not be doing trivial stuff alongside Ability X, as they could immediately wipe out their own consciousness, making their small tricks useless. Only in critical moments, when they were fighting for their lives, would they use it, and once they used it, they would be able to determine the outcome of the battle.
It was obvious that Luo Fei would counterattack. He would not make the first move and neither would he be suitable to. He was waiting for Mars, allowing Mars to seize the decisive opportunity.
Appearing weak and moving stealthily was Luo Fei’s strength, but there was no use in being able to move stealthily. At Mars’ level, he would definitely be able to detect him. Such an ability only becomes more useless as the level increases. It was similar to the simple magic which could be easily seen through by people with tough psychological strength, while the weak... Practically speaking, aside from whether it was useful or not, it would be a struggle whilst at death’s door. Which meant that fatty’s Ability X was trash, trash to an absolute point.
“F*ck, Fatty will be in danger if this goes on!” Zhang Shan bit his finger. This was no longer time to fight with Lear, he was definitely standing on Fatty’s side. Anyways, even if Fatty won, there would be no difference.
Wang Zheng shook his head ever so slightly. He was the clearest on this. Luo Fei was still not in that element yet. It was probably because that state was not something that could be controlled easily.
And at this point in time, the balance and deadlock on the arena had been broken. Mars suddenly executed the Mad Scamper Steps, disrupting the flow. A blade chopped downwards towards the Hercules’ left arm...
Luo Fei did not hide. The blade came too quickly, too unnaturally – there was no time to defend even. Bang...
His left arm fell to the ground and the Hercules emitted chains of sparks...
Almost immediately, Fatty’s whole body was drenched thoroughly. A suffocating fear came through. If he lost, the Dynasty battle team would be finished. Upon thinking of Lear’s look, it would be like the end of the world for Luo Fei.
Mars adjusted his breathing. Another round of attack and this would end. This Luo Fei was not bad, it was just a pity that he was too soft and immature. With his left arm gone, it meant that the defense Luo Fei specialized in was also gone. The key part was that it also largely affected the mech’s balance. Mecha were like the human body – the arms were not the important part, but if the opposition was overly intense, it could cause a chain reaction.
The breakdown had begun.
