Chapter 1178: “Intimate combat” with Kashawen

Kashawen looked coldly at Latven. There was a look of shock on Latven’s handsome face. This was impossible… the results from the intelligence department was… Death was a certainty if struck by this move. The Light power was the only thing that could restrain it. How… could this be?

“Get some men quickly and create some public opinions. Change the rest of the match to actual battles,” said Kashawen coldly.

Latven nodded readily, “Yes, Your Highness!”

“Do you know what to do?”

“This…” Latven had not wrapped his head around it yet. ” This is illogical. This has violated too many of the foundations of Ability X. Is this Wang Zheng really the chosen one, the invincible?”

“Don’t entertain such foolish thoughts!” It was as if Kashawen had clairvoyance to Latven’s thoughts. “No one is invincible. Start from Lya Sphinx!”

Latven finally came to his senses. “Yes, Your Highness!”

Kashawen stared into the shining figure of the Phantom King on the screen. Wang Zheng had asked for this himself. If he had fallen here, it would have been a blessing, but Wang Zheng had held on. This disaster would not befall him alone, it would spread to the others.

Kashawen switched off the video. There was no need to continue watching.

On the battlefield, Snow Li and Lie Xin were already in their mecha, waiting in support. But they did not have to attempt any moves. The Wang Zheng at this very moment could just stand still and send chills down the spine his opponent.

Watching the burning golden power, an endless sense of hopelessness enveloped Jondi Lilick’s heart. Although he held the Thunder Rifle in his hand, he could not seem to shoot.

Countless possibilities rushed through his heart. But the end results were useless. Jondi Lilick bowed his head as he recalled the astonishing power that Wang Zheng had demonstrated during the qualifier.

Loosening his grip, the Thunder Rifle fell to the ground.

The sound was extremely ear-piercing. Wang Zheng stopped his attack, although he was already prepared for it.

“I… admit defeat.”

These three words carried the weight of a thousand pounds. The road to the King of Manalasuo ended abruptly. All the members of the Manalasuo team could not accept what had happened. One member suddenly collapsed and burst into tears.

Jondi Lilick was like a zombie. He did not know what he had said and done. It was as if he could hear no sound, and he walked out of his cockpit aimlessly.

Bolet took a deep breath and walked out of the VIP room. He did not care what other people thought or said.

That was so close!

He had his doubts. Maybe Wang Zheng could have found a solution because he had witnessed many miracles. This person had a knack for finding a solution when there was none. Maybe… in the end, it became a reality.

Somehow, it was more relaxing now.

Everyone clapped loudly as Wang Zheng came out. It was no longer just the people from the Solar System. Many nations had also stood up.

Wang Zheng immediately saw Aina behind the crowd. He realised at that very moment that Aina was worried about him. This lass!

Wang Zheng patted his chest and gave a confident smile. He was reassuring Aina to hold on till the end!

Aina smiled too, tears in her eyes. This man, he had always been like this, even when they first met!

Zhang Shan scrambled up. “Hey! Any side effects? You’re not lethally injured or dying soon, right?”

“Buzz off! I’m fine. I’ll be fine even after you’re dead!”

“Haha! I knew it! You’re a tough guy!”

The Saruman Snake battle team advanced into the quarter-finals. This battle was also the fiercest battle since the start of the quarter-finals.

On the other hand, the Manalasuo team were feeling rather sad. They were powerful and ambitious, but did not make it to the quarterfinals. This was really a huge blow!

Jondi Lilick sat on the bench, holding his head in his hands. He did not know how to deal with all this – the hope of the nation, the hope of his teammates… all hope was lost.

Bolet patted Jondi Lilick on the shoulder. “Defeat is an important experience. The battle has only just begun. If you can’t even take a little setback, you aren’t worthy to be the captain of our Manalasuo team!”

“General… I…”

“Take a good look at that guy. Remember him clearly. One day, you will beat him!” said Bolet.

Every Manalasuo person was staring at Wang Zheng. One day they would beat him!

Aina left quietly before anyone discovered her. She could not add on to the pressure that Wang Zheng was already facing. She had some other thoughts. As soon as they were into the quarterfinals, it should be her aunt’s turn to demonstrate her power.

Where would it come from?

Aina was sure that her aunt would not resort to any despicable moves. Kashawen was master of foresight and inclination. On the bright side, there was no way to hide or struggle free. Even if they knew there was danger, they would still continue…

Instantly, Aina came to a realization. The risks had been low till now because it had been virtual battles thus far. If it had become actual battle, the risks would be much higher since they would have to deal with different abilities and physical injuries. Any mistakes would be irreversible. At the same time… Wang Zheng’s teammates…

If it was an actual battle, injuries would be unavoidable. Would Zhang Shan have died? Or suffered serious injuries? Or would Mu Zhen die?

What would the scene be like?

Aina could not imagine it. She had to think of a way to stop it!

Mitchell received a message. The Prime Minister was going to step in. She could not allow Wang Zheng to continue like this. Even she felt that Wang Zheng was a threat if the situation continued as such. This man had an enchanted power.

Everyone was looking at Saruman Snake differently now, and not just Wang Zheng. Looking at the team members’ battle situations, Saruman Snake had two advantages in hand. An Earth-rank sniper with a non-destructive Ice power, one that a person would neither run away or hide from. Every position was adequately covered. A few of the teammates could even be able to adapt to different changes. The unity and forces were even more incredible. They were practically unstoppable.

This was clear to Kashawen, who was good at understanding people. The Golden Wheel battle team was one of the best teams around, yet they could not stop Wang Zheng. Thus, it might be difficult for the other teams too. What was more important was that that there was no loss in such battles. He might just make it to the finals. Moreover, when he makes it to the finals, and if Wang Zheng were to stir up more trouble, especially when it concerned Aina’s reputation, it would not be an easy mess for her to clean up. She could not help but overthink things. If the battles were changed to actual battles, even if Wang Zheng did not die, his teammates would fall one by one. When that time came, he would finally understand that there were things that were beyond his reach. He would have to pay a heavy price for his desires.

Could Wang Zheng afford to pay the price for it?

Kashawen looked quietly at the beautiful scenery outside the window. She knew Aina would try to stop her. Unfortunately for Aina, Kashawen was still the head of Aslan now, and Aina could not stop her. Besides, since the death of Qiqin Nacchai, Lya Sphinx had a lot of pent up anger. If they were given an opportunity, they would certainly not give up.

Wilfulness and arrogance stemmed from the ignorance of death. She would love to see what changes would occur to this group of young people if this was changed to life and death battles. All the weaknesses, humility and darkness of human nature would be revealed. As long as they were not a machine, they would crumble.

Kashawen had seen many such situations. No one had prevailed throughout history.

Admittedly, Kashawen had always been self-confident. But at this point, Wang Zheng had proved to be worthy to compete with her.
