Hall watched Jack's next game coldly, as if he was just a clown.
Jack, armed with the devastating Fire Emblem, fought his way through the competition, defeating three opponents in a row and securing a spot as one of the top four. With just one more victory, he'd be one of the final two players to advance. As Jack used the emblem more and more, the audience's attention to Group A grew. By this point, more than half the audience had already switched their screens to the Group A match.
Originally, he thought that everything would go smoothly, but when he saw Hall Williams appear in front of him, he didn't know why, but he became a little uncertain again.
Oakland didn't switch the screen until Hall's name appeared on the big screen. What he saw was the scene of Hall and Jack being teleported into the battle space at the same time. He didn't know that Jack also had a fire emblem in his hand. He was just very interested in seeing Hall show his power.
Hall took the initiative at the beginning, and the Glacier Emblem was instantly activated. The entire space was covered with ice and snow, and Jack was instantly frozen into an ice sculpture.
Everyone held their breath, wanting to see how Jack would respond and whether the Fire Emblem could break the shackles of the Ice Emblem.
The next moment, amidst the white snow, a red light slowly appeared beneath it, melting it. The audience was somewhat disappointed to see only the slowly melting ice and snow, instead of the thrilling scene they had imagined.
Hall was not in a hurry at all. He waited quietly for the other party to melt the ice bit by bit with fire.
"It seems that Hall Williams' ice emblem is more powerful. Jack has been melting it with fire for several minutes, and he is still wrapped in so much ice that he can't move."
"That's right! It seems that Hall's ice element emblem is of higher quality!"
After a few minutes, Jack finally broke free from the shackles of the ice. He was a little annoyed. He thought that his Fire Emblem could break through the ice directly, but he didn't expect that it took nearly ten minutes to completely melt the ice and snow. Hall stood aside and watched quietly, as if he was watching his show, which made him feel very embarrassed!
Jack, irritated, activated the Fire Emblem once again. A brilliant crimson stream of flames swept through like a galloping wild horse, quickly filling the air with flames. Hall unhurriedly activated the Gold Shield Emblem, significantly reducing the chances of his mech being affected by the heat.
"What's going on? Isn't the Fire Elemental Emblem very powerful? Why does it look so weak in front of Hall?" The audience couldn't help but start discussing again.
Auckland raised an eyebrow slightly. He could now see that the other person seemed to be using a Flowing Fire Emblem crafted from the Flowing Fire Rune. However, the flames were not as bright or hot as his own. Even so, it still struck him as somewhat odd. Could it be that besides himself, there was another cultivator in this world?
Jack's sea of fire only lasted for five minutes before gradually disappearing, and Hall's golden energy shield was only broken once. It can be seen that the damage power of Jack's Fire Emblem is not as high as he imagined.
The corners of Hall's mouth rose slightly. It's time to let you see what the real Fire Emblem is.
The moment the Fire Emblem is activated, dazzling red fire rushes in, carrying with it rolling magma. The surging heat waves hit your face, and the blazing flames are all around, making you feel as if you are in a sea of fire in hell.
Jack felt that the air around him was so hot that even breathing was painful, not to mention the high temperature transmitted through the mecha, which almost made him feel as if he was being roasted on an iron plate.
The severe pain he felt in his body made him roar. By the time he reacted, he had been ejected from the battle space by the intelligent computer. The battle between the two ended dramatically.
The audience could not feel the extremely high temperature brought by Hall's Fire Emblem. They only knew that the flames ignited by Hall were more lethal than Jack's, otherwise Jack would not be judged as defeated after just one encounter.
"Why does Hall also have a Fire Emblem?"
"That's right. Didn't Alvin say that it was a long-lost ancient magic pattern he learned from some ancient magic pattern fragment? How come it's so common..."
"Hall's Flowing Fire Emblem was probably created by Lancelot, right? Doesn't that mean Lancelot also knows this ancient magic pattern?"
"Hey, isn't that stealing someone's skills?"
"Who stole who?"
"Those with eyes will see for themselves. Whoever is more powerful will know who stole whom."
The audience was eager to watch the fun and started a heated discussion. If it weren't for what Ivan said in the previous interview, everyone might have speculated whether the mysterious Lancelot and Ivan were from the same school. Now it seems that there is something else going on.
Jack left the arena dejected. He had never imagined that Hall also possessed a Flowing Fire Emblem, and that both the temperature and the area of the sea of fire were several times greater than his own. He was no match for him. Hall's heraldry master was simply too terrifying...
The winners of Group A were Hall Williams and another mecha combat division from the Seventeenth Star Region. After Hall confirmed the news of his advancement on the big screen, he immediately logged off and put the storm he had created behind him.
Oakland glanced at the message from Hall that he had received on his computer. It only had two words on it: offline.
Auckland touched his nose and logged off obediently.
As for Ivan Percy at this moment...
He was biting his fingers nervously, his eyes fixed on the screen.
How is that possible? How is that possible? How could Lancelot have created the Fire Emblem? The Berkeley family is all dead, only that useless Oakland is left!
Auckland probably didn't know about the ancient magic pattern fragments at all, otherwise he wouldn't have left such a priceless treasure in a broken box under the bed without taking it away! Even if someone else saw this fragment, they wouldn't be able to understand these ancient characters!
Who exactly is this Lancelot? How did he obtain the Flowing Fire Marking? Did he master more ancient marks? Is that why he created so many emblems with such strange effects?
He had just said that in front of the reporters, and this Hall came out with Lancelot's coat of arms and slapped him in the face! They must have done it on purpose! Could this be a conspiracy? The Berkeley family might have left behind more than one ancient magic rune fragment. Oakland gave another to Hall, who then gave it to Lancelot!
If Hall Williams also knew that this magic pattern came from the Berkeley family...
The more Alvin thought about it, the more frightened he became. He felt a little unwell. At this time, his computer rang. It was his father calling. Alvin couldn't wait to pick up the phone.
"Father!" Alvin looked at his father as if he had found a life-saving straw.
Arnold Percy frowned at his son's distraught look and scolded him coldly, "What the hell is that? Who are you showing this to?"
"Father...I..."
"Alright! I know everything! I've already sent people to investigate Lancelot's background, and that Williams kid might be investigating us now! Isn't it just a similar emblem? Isn't it forbidden to have similar inheritances? I've cracked a new magic pattern. Take it and study it carefully. Stay in the studio for the next few days and don't come out! As long as you create a new and unique emblem, you can suppress this matter again!"
"Yes...Father."
"As for this matter, I'll find a way to temporarily divert everyone's attention. It won't have a big impact on you. Don't panic, okay?!"
"I understand, Father."
After ending the call with his father, Alvin seemed to come back to life. He took the pictures sent by his father and returned to his personal studio.
At this time, Hall had also arrived at Auckland's dormitory. The two sat face to face, and the atmosphere was a little tense.
"Did your mother leave you any relics?" Hall asked straight to the point.
Oakland racked his brains and searched through the original owner's memories. He vaguely remembered that there seemed to be an iron box. "There seems to be something..."
"What is it?"
"It's a tattered book..." He didn't remember it clearly. After all, this was not his own memory. The original owner's memory of his mother was quite vague. He only vaguely remembered that it was a very tattered iron box with some of the original owner's childhood toys and an equally tattered book. The original owner probably couldn't understand the profound text and patterns in it, so he just took a casual look and threw it in the box.
"Where is that book now?"
"Huh...? I think it's under my bed at home..."
