Nothing left but ashes…


    When the Demon Annihtion Cannon struck Xia Nai, he disappeared instantly within the massive column of light, both he himself and his Armor were gone!


    Throughout the match, Xia Nai''s performance was impable, but he made a mistake at thest moment, which resulted in hisplete obliteration.


    He should not have tried to directly receive the blow from the Demon Annihtion Cannon!


    Orton and others hadn''t developed the Demon Annihtion Cannon for Armor fighting, this massively destructive weapon was intended to be used against fleets. ording to their initial idea, with the powerful attack of the Demon Annihtion Cannon, a shot would obliterate all warships in a straight line, which was its real purpose.


    In Armorbat, however, the practicality of the Demon Annihtion Cannon was extremely low. After all, although the preparation and actual firing might not be considered slow, it was not flexible enough. Even a mere one or two seconds of preparation time would absolutely not be adequate to hit any Void Magic Warrior, and thus Xia Nai made a fatal mistake in trying to catch such a terrifying attack.


    Of course, it wasn''t entirely his fault. If Xia Nai had known how terrifying the Demon Annihtion Cannon was, he would have definitely avoided it at all costs. Unfortunately, he didn''t know.


    That''s why he was hovering mid-air, observing Rocky. If he could havended in the ring, then he would have won the match because Rocky was left powerless after enduring the full barrage. Even if Xia Nai had chosen to dodge fully instead of bolstering his Defensive Net before the cannon fired, there might have been a slim chance to avoid it, considering Rocky was already immobilized with only one angle to shoot from.


    Unfortunately, perhaps it was fate—but Xia Nai performed wlessly throughout the match without a single error, only to make one at the veryst moment, not only causing him to lose the match but his life as well...


    As Xia Nai was obliterated, leaving nothing but ashes, it took a long, long time for the crowd to realize what had happened. There was no cheering, nor screaming, just some individuals stood up amidst sparse apuse.


    It wasn''t long before the sparse apuse turned into scattered pping. As the process unfolded, more and more spectators stood up, apuding for Rocky, eventually leading the whole audience to give a standing ovation!


    While the apuse filled the arena, the announcer loudly dered Rocky as the winner of the match!


    However, at this time, Rocky heard nothing because he had lost consciousness right after deploying the Demon Annihtion Cannon. Thus, whether the cannon hit its target, how Xia Nai fared, and whether he won the final victory or not were all unknown to him.


    Fortunately, as soon as the announcer dered the match over and Rocky as the final victor, medical staff immediately carried him out of the ring.


    This way, thepelling match finally drew to a close. No one expected it to be so intense or so splendid, nor did anyone foresee such an oue. The previously underestimated Rocky had won, while Xia Nai, who almost everyone favored, not only lost but was obliterated to ashes. Thisplete turn of events was beyond anyone''s predictions, even the Arena''s.


    So once the match concluded, the victorious Rocky naturally became the focus of discussions. However,pared to that, another bigger and more eye-catching center of attention emerged, the new technology that helped him win the match!


    Although Rocky had won, to many people, the oue of the match was not as important as the demonstration of a brand new technology that had never been heard of before shown to the world through this match!


    This, by far, outweighed the importance of the match itself, causing an immediate and immense sensation, a stirparable to when the Sigma Corporation released a new generation of Armor.@@novelbin@@


    Shortly after, more and more people heard about the news—as Aniye, Orton, Hammerfire, and Pya developed a new technology that greatly enhanced the Mana of Armor, significantly increasing its Mana and breaking through its previous limits.


    What''s more, this technology was already well-developed to the extent that it could be deployed in realbat, as demonstrated by Rocky and Xia Nai''s match.


    This news was explosive enough to set Eternal City abuzz, as it was filled with many important figures, all originally congregated for the Holy Angel Armor but ended up witnessing this unexpected development!


    And as the buzz spread, Aniye and others immediately rode the wave to hold a press conference in Thunderhawk City.


    At the press conference, Aniye, Orton, Hammerfire, and Pya, along with Rocky, all attended, formally confirming various rumors that had been circting, affirming their ongoing development of the new technology under Thunderhawk City''s support, and indeed rted to Mana.


    With this, all those interested in the matter were relieved, for everything known prior to the official press conference had merely been rumors, no matter how true they sounded, there was always an element of uncertainty. But once the press conferencemenced, all doubts were dispelled.


    The only disappointment was that although the conference was held, and Aniye and others confirmed the previous rumors, they did not discuss what the new technology was specifically.


    However, that was hardly a concern, since relying on the reputation of Aniye and others, even though many details of the new technology were not disclosed, the public was still filled with curiosity and confidence, knowing that these master-level figures would not treat such a project frivolously, and more importantly, this unnamed new technology was already operational on Armor.


    Thus, the sessful hosting of the press conference not only focused attention on the new Armor, but another focal point also emerged, which was Thunderhawk City.


    Since the confirmation of the new technology, more and more people headed towards Thunderhawk City, all with the same objective: one was to understand exactly what the new technology was about, hoping to learn some information; the other was to see if they could make contact with Rocky and explore potential cooperation opportunities in furthering this research!
