Tempest of the Stellar War

Chapter 1211: The Hunting Demons Mech

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The arena was filled with the loudest cheers since the start of the competition. It was way louder than when the home team was competing. This was because they had witnessed a true battle. This was no longer just a competition.

The external excitement and the calmness and light-spiritedness that Zhang Shan felt internally presented a clear contrast. The bigger the competition, the more excited Zhang Shan felt. When the excitement reached its peak, he would reach an excellent state. Simply put, Zhang Shan was a big match player. He would perform beyond his usual capabilities during crucial moments. However, the problem laid in the great differences in strengths. Even if Zhang Shan was an Earth-rank warrior, he might still not be able to handle Montero. Moreover, there was a difference between their levels.

The moves were obvious. Zhang Shan had one killer move, and that was the Void Hack. This move was indeed amazing. Coupled with the Wind God’s movement, he could still stand a slim chance, but only one chance. Furthermore, his opponent had to give him that chance. To be honest, the so-called teleportation could only be used four times. Zhang Shan had the teleportation box, and Montero had something similar to offset it. Agile little tricks may not be useless, but using such tricks on an Earth-rank warrior would result in a horrible death. On the other hand, anyone who would dare to use the Hunting Demons mech was undoubtedly the master of techniques.

The tattered arena was undoubtedly an advantage for Zhang Shan. The Wind God’s advantageous movements would be reflected. This was a clear tactical move.

A cold smile appeared at the corner of Montero’s mouth. “You will regret living till today!”

Zhang Shan smiled. “You won’t live to see it!”

Want to bicker? I am your ancestor.

The battle began.

Possessing eight claws, the Hunting Demons mech’s beast form was spider-like. It truly lived up to its reputation as an all-terrain overlord mech. Apparently, any warrior who controlled such a mech had to imagine himself as a real spider. Bionic mimicry and understanding the behaviour of spiders. It was totally crazy.

Growling... Growling... Shing...

The Hunting Demons mech pounced wildly talented wards the Wind God. This speed... it was totally crazy!

The tattered arena did not affect the all-terrain Hunting Demons mech in the least. The Hunting Demons was charging towards the Wind God as if the ground was totally flat. Zhang Shan was being a rogue too. He had no intention of fighting head-on with such a lunatic.

He knew that the Arbiters were very anxious, and would love to crush him to death. At times like this, he needed to be composed and let his opponent become more anxious. Only then could he stand a chance.

The magnetic source shot continuously. Zhang Shan was now highly proficient in his Wind God.

However, Zhang Shan was shocked right at the next moment. This monster was catching up with him.

The eight big legs looked like they were flying on the ground. Zhang Shan had no choice but to increase his speed. Speed was his forte too.

The members of the Soulless battle team revealed a icy smiles. Surely, even the Arbiters had to admit that if Zhang Shan, who possessed teleportation and magnetic source, had the intention to run, it would be really disgusting. However, if Zhang Shan had a nemesis at the entire SIG, it would have to be Montero.

Bang, bang, bang, bang... Bang, bang, bang, bang... Bang, bang, bang, bang... Bubble bubble...

Lasers roared! Boom!

This was rarely seen in individual battles in the SIG. However, for a beast-type mech, moving and shooting was really easy. The Hunting Demons mech was chasing and shooting at the same time.

matrix shots!

Even in bumpy terrain, the Hunting Demons mech was able to maintain its stability. Instantly, a matrix of shots surrounded the Wind God.

Zhang Shan shivered in cold sweat. Luckily, he was prepared for this. The magnetic source connected instantly, changing another direction. This was indeed being utterly devoted to the cause but being prepared for two possible alternatives.

Having evaded the unceasing matrix shots, Montero’s eyes looked even colder. He just could not comprehend how such minions would dare to challenge the great Arbiter Empire!

This was an honour that should not be desecrated. He wanted the damn idiot to suffer a living hell.

The Hunting Demons mech moved sideways. Bang, bang, bang, bang...

Lasers roared. Double matrix shots!

Beast-type mecha, especially the eight-legged Hunting Demons, could easily make such difficult shots. This was impossible for a man-type mech to achieve. The only difficulty was to control the accuracy. This was a weakness of the beast-type mecha. However, Montero’s matrix shots were extremely accurate. Even if he was placed among the snipers, he would still be an ace.

As soon as she saw this move, Snow Li knew that the situation was bad. To have the ability to control the beast-type mech with such accuracy meant that Montero’s sniper ability was at expert level. Honestly, even better than her.

Having just evading a round of attacks, it was followed by another round of even fiercer attacks. Zhang Shan was unable to dodge. The magnetic source was not teleportation. Zhang Shan clenched his teeth and opened his energy shield.

Bang... Boom... Boom... Bang... Bang...

The energy shield shook. He was hit. He did not manage to dodge after all. Zhang Shan continue to dodge using his power. Teleportation couldn’t be used mindlessly. Every usage was to save his life. However, the crucial matter was that he was here to win, not to lose!

This was the toughest.

Bang, bang, bang, bang... Bang, bang, bang, bang... Bang, bang, bang, bang... Bubble bubble...

The Wind God had finally met its match. This beast-type mech’s movements were like those of a live spider. Apart from being all-terrain, this beast-type mech’s movements were even more disgusting. A normal pilot could not control this because of the mobility habits of humans. A normal beast-type mecha had at most four legs, so it was easier to imitate. But an eight-legged mech would require double the control. It would also require changing of rhythms. Montero seemed to have transformed into a gigantic spider in the cockpit.

The Wind God was still unable to open up a distance, or even to retaliate. If he were to turn around and fire a shot, he might be hit with two more rounds of attacks, and could also be caught up to.

Bang, bang, bang... Rumble, rumble, rumble...

Another round of matrix shots. This was really a detestable control. The matrix shot consumption was really huge. However, the advantage the beast-type mech had was too obvious. The speed did not decrease. Round after round of lasers surrounded the Wind God.

The Wind God had totally become the prey.

“If this continues, the Wind God’s energy shield will not be able to hold out much longer,” said Si Jiali.

Jondi Lilick nodded. “Montero’s control in this SIG can be classified in the top three. This person is like a mimic madman. He has already merged with the mech. Furthermore, this is not his scariest form yet.”

Jondi Lilick’s voice was a little low. Deep down inside, he had hoped that Saruman Snake would win. This would make his defeat less embarrassing.

However, Arbiter’s depth was second to none in the Milky Way Alliance. The more critical the moment, the more they could feel it. Wang Zheng’s idea was a good one. Zhang Shan also had the courage to fight till the very end. However, reality was cruel. It would kill dreams.

It was not the first time, and would not be the last either. This was just normal.

Bang, bang, bang, bang... Bang, bang, bang, bang... Bang, bang, bang, bang... Bubble bubble...

Zhang Shan’s Wind God was a live target. Yet another round of double matrix shots came. The point to this sort of attack was that as long as it was taken, it was difficult for the opponent to evade. The movements of the Wind God were falling. Taking a shot was equivalent to blocking. In terms of frequency, Zhang Shan could not achieve the absolute advantage.

Teleportation!

His opponent had purposely calculated the consumption rate of his energy shield. The next round of attacks would kill him completely. He would not let him live!

He was also exerting pressure in the details. No one knew about facing the fear and power of death better than the Arbiters.

Hence, they had never dreamt that anyone would dare to challenge them!

Now, it was as if the Arbiters had broken the seal. There was nothing that could them back, or influence them!

Teleportation had saved Zhang Shan’s life. But the Hunting Demons was closing in fast again. Both their strengths were depleting. However, one thing was for sure: Zhang Shan’s strength was not as good as Montero’s. Physical strength was one of the basics for Arbiter warriors. It was unheard of that an Arbiter’s physical strength was weaker than anyone else’s.

Depleting each other’s strength. This sort of thought should not even be entertained. Zhang Shan had attempted to open up a distance, but now it seemed like it was just a dream.

It was yet another round of double matrix shots. The Wind God had no choice but to use teleportation again to evade.

However, this time around, the position that the Wind God appeared in was not to hide, but to... attack!

The teleportation box sidestepped and evaded the attacks of the matrix shot. This was followed closely by teleportation, bursting out from nowhere. Having absorbed the energy of the void, the Wind God attacked like a void warrior, striking straight at the Hunting Demons mech.

Everyone stopped breathing. A sudden counterattack!

Montero gave a cold laugh. At the instant the Wind God disappeared, the mech had transformed into human form. When he appeared from the void, Montero’s Ability X exploded. The four claws on the sides of the Hunting Demons moved in unison. Rays and rays of energy struck out. An energy web sealed off the void exit completely.

Once Zhang Shan appeared, he was wrapped sturdily. The energy web had transformed into a physical web, trapping the Wind God instantly.

Although appearing from void could defend from many forms of attack, it was unable to defend against being trapped.

In the meanwhile, the four large claws sprung out, stabbing towards the cockpit of the Wind God. A bloody smile appeared from the corner of Montero’s mouth. He was going to grind Zhang Shan into ground meat!

Just when it seemed that it would pierce through, the Wind God disappeared.

Third teleportation!

Zhang Shan had opened up a distance. When he reappeared from the void again, the binds that had bonded him had been stripped off with the power of space.

However, he was not any less passive than before. He had already used teleportation thrice in the blink of an eye. More importantly, he was totally helpless against his opponent’s attacks and defences.
