Tempest of the Stellar War

Panda Novel

Tita Star was in a state of panic, but Wang Zheng’s presence was almost invisible. He was quietly waiting.

Ai Ya City. This was a city that had been relatively slower to evacuate. The main reason was that its citizens had been unwilling to leave, holding on to their daydreams that the invaders would adhere to international agreements.

The super soldiers materialized. The city defenders put up a defense, but under the tremendous onslaught of the super soldiers, they fell apart, and could only retreat.

The entire city was plunged into chaos. Hannibal was slaughtering while whistling. “Come out, come out, my meek creatures. When I kill you, my rating will definitely rise!”

In the underworld, besides money, the contest for rankings was equally stiff. The word “reputation” was a curse that humanity could never leave behind.

When he saw this opportunity, Blue Demon could no longer help himself. If he finished off this super soldier, his gains this time would far exceed his actions to date.

One must know that when one reached a certain level, everyone exercised due caution. Before acting, one would evaluate the risk. On the other hand, his opponent was also sufficiently dangerous. Such a good opportunity was few and far between. Besides, after the last testing, Hannibal felt that his odds of winning were roughly four to one.

The intelligence he had was that his opponent was a student at Elite Academy X, which gave Hannibal some confidence. Most feared of all were his brethren scarred by the underworld. They were all killers. Even if they were just a tad less skilled, the final suicidal counter could very well take one with them. Facaul was a case in point. His ability was so strong, and had such an advantage, but had almost been done in.

A student, young and full of energy. Clearly talented. The risks were lower.

How could he pass up on such an opportunity? That was why he had taken the initiative to go to Mu Lei.

Of course, Fire Falcon would guess his intentions. But so what? It was his own fault for sustaining damage. He could not be faulted.

Only a fool would not utilize every opportunity.

The entire city and its military situation were in control. The Tita people’s forces had already assembled at the Nomiya region. After this battle, the rest would not concern him at all.

The Blue Demon mech swooped down on a squad, instantly rocketing to the sky and executing a brilliant maneuver to stop in midair.

He flipped over to survey the fleeing ants below. Hannibal was in high spirits. This was the appetizer before the feast. It put him in top condition. Each life and death battle with an Earth rank warrior was a banquet.

Shing shing…

Volleys of guided missiles boomed out. This was a completely different matter compared to lasers.

BOOM RUMBLE…

Following the flames and wailing, Hannibal narrowed his eyes and savored the moment. He should be here soon. He was so slow.

Wang Zheng was currently flying the Conqueror at full speed towards Aiya city. This was the maximum limit of the runic mech. Even if such speed would drain his strength, he had to proceed nonetheless.

People were fleeing everywhere. Their anger had already turned into fear. Only some of the elderly watched on quietly. They had been through disasters. Perhaps because they were so near to death regardless that they were unafraid. They let the young go, and stayed on. This was their home, the home of their lifetimes, and they would die at home.

Perhaps, just perhaps, the Titan God would really appear to save them. How could He watch their home perish?

A jet of black light streaked towards the Blue Demon.

BOOM…

Ting, ting, ting…

The titanium blades clashed furiously. The two bolts of light, black and blue, were showered with sparks. Following which, they separated with an enormous sound.

“Haha, good moves. Punk, today we’ll have an Ability X fight to the finish. Declare your name and ranking!” Hannibal exclaimed.

Wang Zheng was very clear about that. Seeing the scene before him, the flames that he had suppressed in his heart continued to rise.

His pupils slowly turned red. The runic mech leaped forward, the titanium blade sweeping out viciously.

WANG…

Blue Demon had not met it, but smoothly drew back. “Remember, I am Hannibal, X198!”

Following that, he executed a tight turn in midair. The mech made a 180 degree extreme twist. Hefting his blade, he leaped towards the Conqueror.

Wang Zheng’s own knife blocked it. With a roar of the engine, the titanium blade cut out in response.

The more furious he was, the calmer he became. Wang Zheng took a deep breath and used his Primordial Regression Technique. He was fully aware of the dangers of this battle. This was the first time he would fight an Earth rank fighter in a mech, and one that was experienced in battle to boot. The smallest mistake would result in his demise. He could not afford to lose, so he must win!

TANG…

Blue Demon was easily receiving his opponent’s attacks. After clashing before once, someone of Blue Demon’s caliber more or less had a feel of his opponent. And unfortunately for this pitiful punk, his ability was also frost. A similar ability, but their levels were completely different.

The titanium blade started to shimmer with frosty light. Each time they clashed, Blue Demon was expanding his Ability X permeation. Blocking without an energy shield meant that it was all sustained by the body.

He need not be too flashy. But the opponent would gradually feel his limbs go numb, until he lost all ability to resist.

At Blue Demon’s level, they returned to a very natural state. The most practical killing moves were the most sustainable. Attack and defense, with no loopholes.

After learning the Ice Ability X at an Earth rank on Hail Cloud Alliance, he knew that it was a feeling, a melding. He could draw on the frost energy in the air at any time, and execute various attacks.

BOOM…

An ice shield formed, blocking the ferocious attack. At the same time, the titanium blade countered. Blue Demon twirled lightly, letting the attack pass. And answered with another slash.

One who had just come to feel the Earth rank knew the advantages of doing as they pleased, but that was not enough.

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM…

After a few clashes, Wang Zheng had come to realize something. The opponent was not only strong in Ability X, but also in cultivation techniques. Previously, his Primordial Regression Technique was a trump card in itself, useful in all situations. But in such power struggles, he could tell from his attacks that the opponent was not just a strength-type Ability X user.

Hannibal was also surprised. To be able to attack at this level, Ability X alone was not enough. Cultivation technique was key. His own physical strength stemmed from his system. His cultivation techniques had brought him to where he was today. But his superior physical ability had not been able to overwhelm this opponent, and he was even feeling a little pressure from the opponent.

Only, neither side in the battle could dwell over much on these things. BOOM…

Wang Zheng’s black mech was sent flying with a kick. In the air, Hannibal’s Blue Demon executed a lightning kick with a spin.

BOOM…

Wang Zheng”s mech crashed heavily against a building. Those Tita people hiding in the building and waiting for their savior had a fright. They did not know who their protector was, but he was truly their only hope. Normal mech fighters were completely helpless against the super soldiers flitting in the skies.

SHING…

A black shadow flew out from the building. The Conqueror rushed towards his enemy at full strength, his titanium blade in a reverse grip. The Primordial Regression Technique smoothly flowed out. The natural world’s energy responded to his ability.

Frost Cleave!

Seeing his opponent’s stance, Hannibal laughed. This was too obvious.

The Blue Demon mech emitted an azure blue beam and leaped to counter. Wang Zheng’s attack felt off. His own ability was being interfered with.

Cultivation techniques and Ability X could fuse into attacks with tremendous killing power. But once separated, their strength was not even half of that.

BOOM…

Hannibal had completely suppressed him. At the same time, he extended his left palm towards Wang Zheng’s Conqueror.

HUM…

A wave of blue light rippled out in a blast. Instantly, the Conqueror was covered in a layer of icy cracks. In the cockpit, Wang Zheng felt a chill bite through his body.

This attack… had never been heard of before.

The attack did not attack like lasers did, but directly reached him.

“Keke, punk, you haven’t been in Earth rank long, have you? This is the true way of using Ability X!”

He flipped and kicked out, still emitting his azure blue light waves.

If this kick connected, Wang Zheng’s chances were not good.

BOOM…

Inferno energy erupted. In terms of fine usage and class, Inferno ability had no way of competing with Frost energy, but this affinity effectiveness was the best. Besides, Tita Star’s wood affinity helped it.

He shrugged off the numbing effects of the frost and dodged the kick. The Conqueror immediately drew the distance apart.

Hannibal was stunned, but also pleased. Dual affinity ability users were nothing special, but given Elite Academy X’s system, this person must be young. Fufu, looks like he would be finishing off a super genius today.

This feeling had Hannibal even more excited.

Blue Demon attacked like a shadow, not giving Wang Zheng any chance. When one was stronger in the same affinity, one could utilize one’s mental energy to destroy the opponent’s responses, and subdue the opponent’s Ability X by force.

At the same time, Ability X and cultivation techniques combined perfectly in the super mech’s capabilities, and the fighting power it unleashed was unimaginable to any average pilot.

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM…

Three consecutive attacks. Hannibal was going all out now. He harassed Wang Zheng. At the same time, his blade carried powerful frost ability. Any contact would pierce Wang Zheng with frost.

The Inferno ability constantly blocked and nullified it. He preserved the alertness of his body, and Blue Demon attacked again.

BOOM…

Wang Zheng did not block it, but was sent flying.

This blow had connected solidly, but Hannibal did not pursue. Everything was under control, and the slightest error could cost him. If left to develop, this punk would be a monster in the future. Multi-ability fighters were not always at an advantage, but if one could switch extremely quickly, that was terrifying.

Looking at the despairing crowds below, Hannibal was overjoyed. Fear and despair were snacks for a killer. Fufu, eradicating a person’s hope was even more terrifying than death itself.

It had always been so. A bunch of weaklings. Did they not understand? A struggle to the death would only make the conquerors feel even better. Life was rape. If you couldn’t fight it, you should learn to enjoy it.

Seeing the runic mech fly over, Hannibal’s mouth twitched. “Punk, you’re really not intending to state your name?”

He was not worried that his opponent would escape. Such ring-bred fighters always had the same weakness, just like Heaven. Although he had mixed with the underworld, in his bones, he had always thought of leaving it behind. He had never met any of those types with a happy ending.

Death was inevitable.

“Corpses have no need of my name,” Wang Zheng said coldly.

Hannibal was stunned, then burst into guffaws. “That’s the best joke I’ve heard in my life.”
