Chapter 736: Chapter 510: Taking Advantage of the Vulnerable, The Final Battle (Part 2)

In an instant, almost all the audience realized it.

The match wasn’t over yet.

There was still one contestant in their ultimate state.

And coincidentally, it was the one who had plunged Angry Iron Plate into the abyss four months ago—

[Zero]!

At that moment.

Under the anxious or excited gazes of everyone.

The supposedly powerless [Angry Iron Plate] unexpectedly moved with a wild instinct, lifting its left arm rapidly to meet the photon saber with its dark golden glowing saw blade.

Clang!!

The shriek of weapons slicing through the air sounded like the scream of a demon, with sparks and light shooting out explosively from the point of contact between the two machines, the shockwave audible for kilometers.

The fully blue-hued machine with magnificent large wings swung its blade, clashing against the saw blade in the hand of the battered Steel Giant.

The two machines faced each other at extremely close range.

One, cloaked in blue glimmer, with wings as wide as a hundred meters, like an angel descending to earth, after overpowering [Frost Tiger] and reaching theoretical limits, [Zero] was in peak mode.

The other, rugged and wild, its armor shattered exposing the internal Spirit Rune Array, resembling a spent force after eliminating [Chaos] and [Celestial Punishment], [Angry Iron Plate].

—But this time, it blocked that strike.

The next moment, both machines’ heads lit up with glaring lights, as if the pilots were locked in a death stare through the cockpit.

Then.

Like venting the terrifying intent to kill and murderous aura in both hearts.

Almost without hesitation, the dark golden and blue lights illuminated the remaining safe area.

Pseudo Domain activated!!!

Dazzling brilliance surged from both machines like a tidal wave.

The blue and dark golden light intertwined, different colors, different attributes, different characteristics of force fields fiercely clashing and spreading under their operators’ will.

—Stolheim, piloting [Zero], after reaching the limit, was also able to unfold his own territory.

In an instant, two domains descended upon the world again!

But this time, they didn’t overlap; they occupied half the space at the point where the weapons joined.

Rumble!!

The entire battlefield seemed split in two.

Two entirely different "worldviews," like tectonic plates pressing against each other, burst into countless tiny cracks at the boundary of contact.

On one side, a world of order suffused with blue light, where the vast wings seemed to uphold a small universe, every Ether particle in the air aligned neatly, like data streams flowing at the domain’s edge.

On the other side, behind the battered Steel Giant, Source Stone Crystal Clusters rose rapidly from the tormented ground, like breaking through the soil.

At that moment.

The safe zone’s diameter was only ten kilometers.

A rather ample number.

Based on the current shrinking speed, there were over ten minutes left until it would completely disappear.

But at this moment, victory or defeat seemed imminent in everyone’s eyes.

Because only these two machines remained on the field!

"[Zero] has arrived too!"

"He’s here!"

"Is the winner about to be decided?!"

"Things are looking bad!"

...

At this moment, virtually all the official broadcast commentators were exclaiming.

The reason was simple.

Because within the domain, facing the angel-like [Zero], [Angry Iron Plate] indeed looked tragic.

Unlike [Zero] in its prime, the crude black and yellow armor had vanished, revealing those extremely complex, vine-like patterns within.

But those patterns seemed to show signs of breaking and instability.

That was the price of pushing through under the strain of two Pseudo Domains.

"Things are bad..." General Zhang from one team frowned as he watched the scene:

"[Angry Iron Plate] just endured a super-intensive battle, with significant damage and load on the machine, and the pilot’s spirit must have also taken a toll, leaving them in poor condition."

"They’re already locked in a close confrontation; using a shield is too late, let alone a portable recall module needing at least a minute."

"Meanwhile, [Zero] is at its peak, having evolved its energy by defeating [Frost Tiger] to the performance limit."

"Even if both activate Pseudo Domains..."

He didn’t continue.

But everyone understood what he meant.

In an instant, the audience that had been fixed on [Zero]’s perspective from the start finally grew excited.

[How despicable! This guy was already nearby!]

[I was watching his perspective, and he just stared as Chaos and Celestial Punishment clashed with Angry Iron Plate, hiding in the clouds, not moving an inch!]

[Now that Angry Iron Plate just finished a major battle, suffered damage, and surely used up a lot of energy, he chooses this moment to ambush?]

[Is this the so-called perfect knight as advertised?]

[Federation people are truly disgusting, even if he wins, what then?]
