Chapter 1231: The Way To Defeat Sea Queen

Lie Xin, Mu Zhen, and the rest of the core members of Saruman Snake rushed out when they heard Wang Zheng entering.

They hadn't slacked over the past few days — they had been studying the videos of Atlantis' battles while pondering over their strategy. They were finally relieved upon seeing Wang Zheng return.

"Yo, you seem to be fair. Tsktsk, your recovery ain't bad," Ai Xiaolu ridiculed.

"It's alright, I got all my limbs working at last. Xiaolu, we have to start the closed door training and make the final spurt for the battle against the Sea Queen battle team!" Wang Zheng said.

"Alright, that's what we were waiting for!" Ai Xiaolu replied enthusiastically.

The Saruman Snake battle team entered their closed door training, completely isolating themselves from the world outside. It seemed as though... they weren't prepared to give up.

There were only four able warriors left in Saruman Snake — Wang Zheng, Mu Zhen, Lie Xin, and Snow Li. The only way to win was to get a three to zero score.

However, that was impossible. This battle would be infinitely more difficult than the battle with the Soulless battle team. On the one hand, the Sea Queen battle team was stronger than the Soulless battle team. On the other, the Sea Queen battle team wasn't the type that would give the Saruman Snake battle team any chance. They were more nimble and flexible in their approaches. Moreover, the Sea Queen battle team wouldn't make the same mistakes.

There was only one certainty: the Saruman Snake battle team would give their best fight in them, no matter the outcome. They didn't know the meaning of giving up.

Wang Zheng's "revival" reignited everyone's passion. Doubts dissipated and tickets to the semi-finals were selling like hotcakes. The price increased ten times for normal tickets, and seats with better views increased more than fifty times on the Skylink. This was an excitement like never before.

The happenings between Wang Zheng and the Atlanteans were made into special reports on the SIG official website as well.

Wang Zheng was the one who could best utilize the Phantom King from the humans' military schools. His ability was even higher than that of the Atlanteans, which put the Atlanteans to shame. The Atlanteans had to take back the title of the Greatest King from Wang Zheng.

The usually invincible Atlantis Team finally fell from their throne in front of Wang Zheng's Phantom King in that fateful IG. That video had been officially released for the first time ever. The magical control of the Phantom King, granting the opponents instant kill. That made the Atlanteans admit defeat.

Fate liked to play with people. It was the semi-finals against the Atlanteans again. Would Wang Zheng advance, or fall this time?

The Atlanteans, who had never cared much for winning or losing, were paying great attention to this match. This was unprecedented. Everyone knew that the Atlanteans always did their best but maintained a low profile. They didn't need the championship.

However, Wang Zheng roused this feeling out of them. The Atlanteans did not make a come back during the Greatest King. What would be the attitude of Sea Queen battle team led by Prince Dina Atlas now?

Si Jiali interviewed Prince Dina on this. He didn't reject it.

"Prince Atlas, the fateful battle between the Sea Queen battle team and the Saruman Snake battle team is one of the most anticipated battles currently. How do you feel about it?" Si Jiali's question was slightly offensive.

Dina Atlas smiled. "It is indeed a fateful battle. The Sea Queen battle team has been preparing for it. In fact, one of the main reasons we are participating in the SIG is to battle Wang Zheng."

Si Jiali was very surprised. The comments on the live interview exploded. Sea Queen had come for Wang Zheng?

"We didn't expect that. Does that mean the biggest rival to you is the Saruman Snake battle team?"

"Yes, the Saruman Snake battle team is the strongest team in the current SIG. The Sea Queen battle team will do our best in the battle in three days to obtain victory and glory!" Dina Atlas replied seriously.

Si Jiali's mouth fell wide open, and she stared at Dina Atlas for quite some time before assuring herself that he wasn't joking. "Your Highness Atlas, you probably know that the current situation of the Saruman Snake battle team is pretty bad. Aren't they vulnerable now?"

Prince Atlas shook his head slightly. "The soul of the Saruman Snake battle team is there as long as Wang Zheng is there. He is the most classic representative of human warriors. That is why the Milky Way Alliance is being led by humans even until now. There are many excellent qualities worthy for us to learn from. I respect my opponent. Our Sea Queen battle team is ready. I hope the Sea Queen battle team can win back the glory of the Atlanteans under my lead!"

Si Jiali nodded. "Thank you, Your Highness Atlas. I believe everyone is very sure about the attitude of the Sea Queen battle team in the coming battle. The Saruman Snake battle team has run out of luck. We can only hope that Wang Zheng will show us a miraculous performance."

Everyone who saw the interview had a great impression of the Atlanteans. They were respectful even to such a "crippled" team. That only proved that the Atlanteans were outstanding. Actually, the results didn't matter anymore. His Highness was just being polite. They had shown sufficient strength to win. A small Saruman Snake wouldn't be able to stop that.

The semi-finals was a solemn one, but everyone had some hope in their hearts. It was impossible to put this unrealistic expectation into words.

This teeny bit of possibility turned the second match of the semi-finals popular.

Lear sneered and turned off the Skylink. "Boss, Wang Zheng is just struggling. There is no need to think too much about it. What about our battle?" Luo Fei asked.

Lear glanced coldly at Luo Fei. "Do you not understand Wang Zheng even now? He is undergoing closed door training now. Do you think that's a bluff?"

"Ahem, ahem, well, he should be thinking of a counter strategy, but the Runic Matrixes of the Atlanteans are god-like. They're impossible to break. Moreover, they're now crippled. I don't think they have any way to win." Luo Fei shrugged. He wasn't trying to comfort Lear, he was just expressing the truth. Even those who were supporting them were only encouraging them. The results of this semi-finals were cast in stone before they started. They only hope that Saruman Snake could finish with glory.

Lear sneered once again. "None of you understand Wang Zheng!"

The person who best understood Wang Zheng was definitely Lear. He knew what Wang Zheng was thinking with every move he made. Lear had a million reasons why he believed that Wang Zheng had found a way to break through the Runic Matrix. If not, Wang Zheng would never do something so pointless as to do closed door training.

Dammit, how could he have found the method to counter it? It was going to be the first public display of the Runic Matrix. He probably hadn't just found the method to counter it, but to recast it.

Lear was going crazy. Reason told him that it wasn't that easy to break. The so-called flaws were relative. The Atlanteans had been using it all these years, it wouldn't be that easy to deal with them. However, this was Wang Zheng he was talking about, this person... Dammit. He could always find a way, just like a ghost.

What was the way to counter it?

Lear hated that Wang Zheng could think of it, while he had no idea at all!
