Chapter 394: Crucial Battle Against Manaluoso
Trantor: Abyssruler Editor: Lucas
Everybody was looking at this familiar yet strange Zhang Runan... this was Zhang Runan?
No matter how picky you were, the Zhang Runan approaching could not be called ugly by rights. Her face bore a majesty that only female soldiers had, and her eyes were filled with an unswerving determination that attracted a second nce.
This...
People began to break out into murmurs. Those that were more knowledgeable reacted immediately. This was a reverse strength type Ability X, a rare type. Was this Zhang Runan’s real face?
Ye Zisu and the rest were stunned. She was pretty close with Zhang Runan, but this was her first time seeing such a face of Zhang Runan. This was no tyrannosaurus, this was a goddess!
A war goddess!
Zhang Runan ignored their reactions, showing a look of disgust on her face. She must have been troubled by her appearance all the while.
Sometimes ugliness made people leave her alone, both friends and strangers. This spotlight left her uneasy.
Wang Zheng smiled. “I’m really not used to seeing you like this.”
“You bet,” Zhang Runan said mildly. Even her voice tone had be higher.
Lie Xin jumped on her, staring at her from head to toe. “My God!”
Zhang Runan shrugged off Lie Xin’s hand, returning to her ce. Zhang Shan stared agape from the side, not daring to speak to her. His macho bravado had caught in his throat, and he swallowed it back down.
The Sr System team had beat the Silver Snake team 3-1, and entered the top 32. One side was celebratory, the other hung their heads.
Meng Ao and the rest looked at each other. Clearly they had not understood the team as well as Wang Zheng did. Zhang Runan was too unexpected, even pretending to be an ugly duckling...
After the battle, the teams waited for the nextmand. IG battles were not always unchanging. Towards the end,plications would be set to test all-roundedness in individual capability and team coordination, as well as the depth of the substitutes.
Fighting their way into the top 32 was already testament that the ability of the Sr System Federation team had developed greatly. It was no mere luck, and teams ahead that could not recognize this would suffer greatly.
On that day, the top 32 were born. These were the strongest 32 teams that the gxy had ever seen.
Zone A: An Empire team, Astina Federation team, Hercules Star team, Sagittarius team.
Zone B: Antis team, Versailles Empire team, da team, Sirius Star team
Zone C: Ghana Star team, Immortal Fairy Star team, Darkness Empire team, Sagitta Federation team
Zone D: Sr System Federation team, Morgan Locke Empire team, Mansuo Empire team, Caragal Ster System team
Zone E: Arbiter Republic team, Big Bear Federation team, Ganda Federation team, Maya Empire team
Zone F: Lya Sphinx Republic team, Aipu team, Queen Star team, Hail Cloud Alliance team
Zone G: Gemini Federation team, Immortal Barbarian Star team, Big Crab Federation team, Spaceflight Star team
Zone H: Maacah Republic team, Earthworm Federation team, Thor team, Steel Flood team
Only two teams could emerge out of each zone, and the top 16 battles were a best of seven, although the battle format remained unchanged. After entering the top 16, the battle format would be changed, but firstly one had to have the aptitude to enter the top 16.
Zone D, that the Sr System was in, was regarded as an average zone. Besides Mansuo’s domination, the other three teams had a fighting chance to qualify. The question was luck.
The zone D members were waiting quietly in the room. The Mansuo members were particrly carefree. To them, their opponent did not matter, but to the other three teams, whoever could avoid Mansuo stood a huge chance of entering the top 16.
Max was currently praying. Their luck had been good, great even. They had actually made it into the top 32. Max had spotted Wang Zheng as well. This punk had actually led his team to the top 32. It looked like the Sr System was in the same situation – a cumtion of their long years of experience blossoming. It was a pity that they had been assigned the same zone. They would have to determine who was better now.
On the screen, the Sr System Federation team’s name appeared on the left. The other side cycled. Everybody’s eyes widened, praying that their name would appear. Caragal team... Mansuo team... confirmed!
Max could not resist punching his fist in the air. Although he had wanted to sh against the Sr System team, at least they were not against the Mansuo team. As for the Morgan Locke team, they would soon see who was the fiercer of the two.
The unfortunate Sr System team seemed to have run out of luck.
Max greeted Wang Zheng with a smile. “Looks like our luck is the one that is still holding. Tsk tsk. But to the Sr System, this has already been a historical breakthrough. Your leadership deserves a page in your history.”
On the other side, the Mansuo team members had already left. Besides the opponents’ name, they were unconcerned as to who their opponents were.
“Who knows, we might be able to pull an upset. Perhaps we could qualify together,” Wang Zheng said.
Max could not believe his ears. “Haha, right, qualify together!”
You had to give it to the Sr System people for their optimism, it looked like they had not been scared out of their wits by Mansuo. They were either born with tremendous courage, or already resigned to their defeat. However, fate seemed to bring the two teams together regrly.
“Morgan Locke is a difficult matchup as well.”
“Nothing left to do but to go at it. We’ve already made it so far, we want to have no regrets. Timewise, we’re due to start first. It might be possible for us toe to see your match after we’re done. I’m definitely behind the Sr System,” Max said. “Oh, right, let me tell you a secret. This is something that our guys found out. You know Mansuo’s Golden Wheel, right? I hear this Vincent is the only one who can pilot the Golden Wheel mech effectively. This mech is regarded as trash, but rumor has it that if you can control it, it possesses an unthinkable battle power.”
“I’ve got it.” Wang Zhengughed. Max was a little miffed by his unsatisfactory response. This guy seemed to bepletely unconcerned by his warning... But then again, it was to be expected. What difference did knowing make?
The other Sr System members had differing reactions. Taros was already feeling sidelined. As the battles progressed, he felt more and more powerless. Masasi and Lie Guang’s abilities were below average in the team as well, so it would be difficult to send them in theter battles. Meng Tian was in the same boat. She was not suited to these 1 on 1 battles. Her abilities were better suited in a team.
Whereas Lear and Achilles’ eyes had lit up with joy when they were set to face Mansuo.
Max and his team were practically skipping as they left. Their behavior irritated the Morgan Locke members. Historically, Morgan Locke was a much stronger team than Caragal.
Vincent was a little surprised. When their next opponent had been decided, Lieutenant General Bole had called him over for a warning, as though he was wary of the Sr System Federation team.
Was... this a joke?
The magnificent Mansuo Empire team... The meek Sr System Federation team... they could bowl them over even by farting!
