Chapter 177: The Ultimate Strategy
Translator: Double_LEditor: Hitesh_
While Einherjar Wannabe had deployed his invisible troops, Rhin was still struggling with her own army. Aside from constantly getting bombarded by her opponent’s frustrating jets, her base was also exposed apparently, and Wang Tong was able to observe the overall situation perfectly.
His invisible troops would be reaching in five minutes.
MATCH OVER!
Everything blacked out before she could respond to his attacks!
Einherjar Wannabe had successfully subdued the ultimate Art of the Blazing Flare in eleven minutes and thirty-five seconds, and Rhin was forced to surrender!
Rhin had no choice but to surrender since she had lost all of her radar stations. Without radar stations, Einherjar Wannabe’s invisible troops were technically invincible. However, she had no idea how Einherjar Wannabe managed to overpower her in such a short period of time. Her defeat was totally absurd, as she didn’t even have the time to demonstrate her superb controlling maneuvers.
Everyone else was also shocked to witness the unbelievable scene, and couldn’t help but wonder how exactly Einherjar Wannabe won!
After a short consideration, Rhin decided to re-challenge Einherjar Wannabe.
Wang Tong agreed and accepted her invitation without hesitation, as he also wanted to get familiar with the feeling under the pressure of Rhin’s operating maneuvers!
”Einherjar Wannabe versus Rhin, round two begins in twenty minutes.”
All of the spectators went crazy, especially fellow students of various military academies, they even chose to skip classes in order to watch the upcoming match.
”Oh my god, check this out!”
”Art of the Blazing Fire was defeated!”
”Einherjar Wannabe subdued Kaedeian Royal Academy’s No.1 in ten minutes!”
More and more students were seen giving lame excuses like stomachache, headache and so on in order to skip classes for the sake of the match. After all, Einherjar Wannabe had successfully defeated the unrivaled Art of the Blazing Flare! Moreover, he won with his strategy instead of controlling maneuvers.
Finally, round two began.
Rhin kicked off with the same setup, because she believed that her Art of the Blazing Flare was flawless, and her previous loss was due to her late deployment of troops. This time, however, she would not make the same mistakes!
On the other hand, Einherjar Wannabe was busy developing his own planes, doing exactly what he did in the previous game. As Rhin was about to deploy her troops, Einherjar Wannabe sent in his interference again, and she was unable to defend against it. Apparently, Einherjar Wannabe had obtained the upper hand in the air, and although Rhin had done her best to defend, in the end, she wasn’t able to protect her radar stations. Minutes later, Einherjar Wannabe’s invisible troops charged in again, and game over encore!
The time was even shorter this time, nine minutes and thirty-five seconds.
However, Rhin was still unconvinced by her defeat, and wondered why she wasn’t able to demonstrate her controlling maneuvers as always.
In the end, she asked for round three!
This time. Rhin gave up her Art of the Blazing Flare and began her set up with the Art of the Lightning. She decided to focus more on attacks!
Unlike the previous matches, Einherjar Wannabe chose to build up his defense first this time. Earthlings were known for their strong and tough defenses, and the defenses in Einherjar Wannabe’s base were outstanding. Most people knew that the theory of defense was easier than offense, yet the Art of the Lightning was designed to subdue its enemy through superb controlling maneuvers. However, Einherjar Wannabe was able to defend with his flawless controlling maneuvers, nullifying most of Rhin’s attacks. At the same time, he even managed to send in fighter jets to destroy Rhin’s base without using invisible troops, tearing her whole strategy apart.
MATCH OVER!
She was thoroughly defeated!
Rhin almost broke into tears. Her original intention of challenging Einherjar Wannabe was to learn from the matches, but now, she was totally owned by his dominating strength!
Rhin wondered if he was a senior student from another academy. But as she opened his profile, she was shocked to see he was only a sixteen-year-old peer instead. Both of them were at the same age, but Einherjar Wannabe’s absolute power was completely absurd.
Although she was ashamed of her defeat, Rhin held onto her awkwardness and asked, ”Would you mind telling me… what sort of strategy was that?”
Hundreds and thousands of students who were stunned by the matches were seen fixing their eyes on the screen, waiting for Einherjar Wannabe’s reply. Apparently, what happened just now was even more exciting and outrageous than the usual METAL Combats, because everyone got to witness a brand new strategy aside from the amazing controlling maneuvers. Even the Kaedeians had no idea what that battle strategy was!
Wang Tong was pleased with his performances. In the end, he managed to understand the true meaning of command, even though his battle strategy was not completed. Finally, he learned the essence of perspective and timing. After all, war was all about seizing the right timing. As long as there wasn’t any mishap, the opponent would never stand a chance, and might even able to fool the opponent with illusional tactics.
However, Wang Tong had never thought of a name for his ”strategy”, since he had never considered it as one. It was more like a feeling instead. As long as he mastered this ”feeling”, he would be able to utilize any battle strategies.
Noticing that his battle strategy emphasized on airborne attacks, he managed to think of a catchy name for it — Art of the Soaring Heaven!
After answering Rhin’s question, Wang Tong logged out immediately. He felt great even though he didn’t get to join any METAL Combats. Moreover, the previous matches had significantly boosted his confidence.
