George, who was teleported into the battle space, felt his heart sink when he saw the KA-165 appear in front of him.
As soon as the game started, George immediately activated all the emblems on the mecha.
Ignaz stood quietly there, waiting for him to make a move.
Although the other party did not make any move, George still felt a hint of sarcasm.
George activated the Ice Emblem and used the ice spikes to freeze both feet of Ignaz's mecha. Then he started the thrusters and rushed to Ignaz at the fastest speed, intending to give him a heavy blow.
However, Ignaz, whose legs were frozen, was not at all panicked. He tried to move his legs. Although it was a bit difficult, he was not unable to break free. He smiled slightly. The boss said that he should lose in a more embarrassing way.
Ignaz concentrated his strength on his legs, exerted force suddenly, broke free from the ice spikes, and then... stood there again.
George was so angry that his teeth were itching, but he had to continue attacking. He rushed to Ignaz and used the Fire Emblem on Ignaz. Ignaz slowly activated the Gold Shield Emblem and completely blocked his close-range attack.
The golden transparent energy shield turned into specks of dust and dissipated. Then Ignaz summoned another one, looking as if to say, "Hit it as you like, and see how many times you can break it."
George was almost going crazy. He activated the wind element emblem again. The strong wind swept across, which did provide some cover, but Ignaz just held up the golden shield emblem and responded to all changes with the same attitude.
The golden energy shield was broken up again and again, and then summoned again and again. The audience realized that something was wrong and started a heated discussion in the spectator channel.
"Isn't this JA-144 too weak? It can't even break the opponent's defense!"
"Exactly! But this KA-165 is a bit strange. Why doesn't it fight back? It just stands there and lets him hit it?"
"Who knows? Maybe they had some conflict in the past?"
"Oh, so boring. I want to change the channel, but then I see what the KA-165 counterattack will look like..."
"Me too!"
"Me too."
Ignaz looked at the time. Almost twenty minutes had passed. From the start of the game until now, he had done nothing except standing there and repeatedly activating the golden shield emblem.
It seems that it is about time to show George what true strength crushing is.
There was a blinding flash of white light, and everything within a five-meter radius was frozen. George's JA-144 was frozen and completely unable to move.
Both are ice element emblems, but the difference is so huge. George's ice ridge emblem can only freeze the legs of Ignaz's mecha, while Ignaz's freezing emblem can freeze George's entire mecha into an ice sculpture.
"Wow! A counterattack! A counterattack!"
“This is so cool!”
Ignaz then launched a series of fireball attacks, blasting him out of the battle space.
"Contestant No. 3195 is eliminated."
George used all three elemental emblems to fight for a full twenty minutes, but he was unable to cause any damage to Ignaz's mecha. However, after Ignaz attacked fiercely, he killed him instantly without even a second's delay and eliminated him.
George Campbell was completely humiliated. Everyone who watched the game had a look of disappointment on their face. The contrast between the previous games was too obvious, and they didn't know what else to say.
As embarrassed as George was Ivan Percy. The contrast between the emblem effects of the two mechas was too obvious, and the emblem makers would inevitably be compared.
George's identity was soon revealed, his engagement to Ivan Percy, his membership in Team Dylan, and the origin of his coat of arms were all too obvious.
The origin of Ignaz's coat of arms was clear at a glance. There were only three people using the KA-165 mecha in the competition, two of whom were from the Silver Wings. Their team's heraldry master was the renowned Lancelot. Special coats of arms had become his trademark, and now he had to add a high-quality elemental coat of arms.
"Isn't this Ivan the son of General Percy? He has always been known as a young genius. Not long ago, he said he wanted to take the exam for an intermediate heraldry master. Then why is there no further news about him?" There are many people who dislike the Fifth Army.
"Of course he can't pass the test! Look at the poor effect of his emblem attributes, how can he compare with Lancelot?" Another person who likes to watch the fun and stir up trouble.
"Master Lancelot! Please buy me a coat of arms!"
"That's right! You can't just use it on your team!"
The discussion gradually went off track, and Starnet was filled with screams and howls for the Lancelot coat of arms.
"Hehehe, that's awesome, Mr. Lancelot." Dragal, who was sitting in the spectator seats, bumped into Auckland next to him.
"Go away." Auckland rolled his eyes at his friend and covered his face with his hands. He didn't understand why everything could be linked to him?
Fortunately, there were many people in the spectator stands, and everyone's attention was on the field. In addition, Auckland's virtual image looked very ordinary and was not noticeable in the crowd, so no one noticed him for the time being.
Ivan, who was also watching the game, was so angry that he logged off. What a loser George was! He lost the game in such a shameful way, and completely exposed the shortcomings of his emblem!
Alvin was so angry that he smashed several cups. He only calmed down a little after receiving a call from his father.
"Father!" Alvin looked at his father expectantly, "Is there any news about the research on that book?"
Arnold has paid a high price to hire five ancient text researchers who are well versed in ancient characters, as well as two researchers who are familiar with ancient scroll restoration, to study and restore the magic pattern fragment that Alvin stole. Now there is indeed some clue.
"I have made a preliminary repair to a magic pattern. Take it and study it to see if you can improve it."
"Yes, father!" Alvin could hardly suppress his excitement.
Arnold sent Ivan a blurry image. While blurry, the outlines were still clearly visible. If Auckland were here, he'd instantly recognize it as a copy of a low-grade Flowing Fire Talisman. It looked a bit worn, but the outlines and runes were still mostly intact.
Ivan was ecstatic and immediately logged back into the Star Network. He completely ignored the series of call requests and various messages from George and went straight into his personal studio to start making the emblem.
This diagram was even more complex than any fire elemental pattern he had seen before, composed of multiple strange shapes superimposed on each other. A single mistake could lead to failure. He took a piece of iron plate and traced it, comparing it to the image. It took him seventeen or eighteen times before he could barely grasp the diagram.
However, when using the energy board for drawing, problems arose.
After he started drawing, the energy of the emblem became extremely violent, and his mental strength became unstable. His head was about to explode, and his writing became unsteady.
After destroying three energy plates in a row, Alvin smashed all three energy plates in anger.
After finally calming down, he began to reflect. He realized that this kind of magic pattern required very strong control and input of mental power, and he had to try his best.
After resting for a while, he started a new round of emblem making. This time, he injected his mental power to the maximum extent and drew it at a very slow speed.
Five hours later, Ivan's face, drenched in sweat, had turned incredibly pale. The pattern on the energy plate beneath his palm was only halfway drawn, but his mental strength was almost exhausted...
Ivan gritted his teeth and wanted to continue, but the pain in his brain was like a needle prick, making him miserable.
"Ah!" A tremor in his hand finally caused the whole effort to fail. Sparks burst out on the energy plate and were quickly extinguished by the protective system in the studio, leaving only a charred area.
