Rise of the Zerg in the World of Gods

Seeing that the two contenders were such powerful beings, spectators around the arena erupted in cheers and screams.

Initially, everyone thought they wouldn't risk their best units and would only choose Bronze-tier fanatics. No one expected them to bring out their strongest forces right from the start.

Just their appearance instantly ignited the atmosphere of the venue.

Xu Luo couldn't see the scenes in other private rooms, but he could gauge the excitement from the reactions of people in the seats below.

The cheers were deafening.

Seeing this scene and recalling the earlier conversation, Xu Luo realized this was an unofficial match.

It was somewhat similar to the underground boxing matches from his previous life.

However, underground boxing was very bloody, often life-threatening.

In comparison, all God Fighter battles took place in the World of Gods.

Although there was no danger to life, the cost of each battle was still enormous. Just the requirement of a fanatic believer for dueling eliminated many contenders.

In a normal battle, the price was even higher.

The losing side would have their units killed. Even with the unwritten rule of not destroying the Divine Realm core, the losses were still severe. Moreover, there were always some who didn't play by the rules and took the opportunity to destroy their opponent's Divine Realm after victory.

Understanding what God Fighters were all about, Xu Luo lost some interest.

If this was what being a God Fighter meant, then he had been doing it all along!

At this moment, the two figures in the jungle began to control their believers' bodies and started moving.

Mad Iron, wielding a double-bladed great axe in the Berserker's body, seemed influenced by its personality, or perhaps it was his original nature, charging straight ahead without caring if his position was discovered.

In contrast, Clear River was more cautious.

Even though the jungle was his main battlefield, and his Weapon Master could quickly adapt to various environments and master all kinds of weapons, he didn't dare to be careless against his old rival.

Weapon Master: Silver Tier 5, proficient in all weapons, can quickly adapt to all harsh environments, with strong defense and attack.

This was the description of the Weapon Master.

Humans were just Bronze Tier 1 ordinary intelligent creatures, without any outstanding talents.

Unlike dwarves who could forge weapons or goblins who excelled in various magical equipment.

But humans excelled at learning.

Through training, they could advance to Bronze Tier 2 Warriors, Bronze Tier 5 Fighters, and then through unique advancement methods, they could choose to become Monks, Sword Saints, or Weapon Masters!

This was the advancement path Zuo Tianyao had explored step by step, and it was the highest secret of human civilization.

Besides these three advanced professions, humans could also change to other classes, like becoming Priests or Mages, but learning on their own took a very long time and couldn't be achieved overnight.

The recklessly charging Mad Iron soon discovered Clear River's figure.

The Berserker and Weapon Master engaged in direct combat.

It was a collision of overwhelming strength and ultimate skill.

This kind of battle was far more attractive to the watching rich and gamblers seeking thrills than a chaotic melee of numerous units.

Watching their fight, Xu Luo realized that these Gods not only needed to develop their species and Divine Realms but also had to learn how to fight.

Just like now, he had many fanatic Zerg units, but could he control an Earth Dragon Zerg to fight effectively?

Clearly, even a Tier 9 Earth Dragon Zerg would be instantly killed by a Tier 5 Weapon Master.

It wasn't that the Earth Dragon Zerg was weaker than the Weapon Master, but because he, as the controller, couldn't bring out the Earth Dragon Zerg's full power.

"Who do you think will win between them?" Wang Xiaoling suddenly asked while watching the battle.

Her question attracted the attention of the others.

Seeing several pairs of eyes intently focused on him, Xu Luo didn't shy away and smiled.

"It's hard to say. The Weapon Master excels in techniques and can switch between various weapons at will. His strength is considerable, allowing him to use heavy weapons and not fall behind in direct confrontations. The Berserker, on the other hand, has simple techniques, relying on overwhelming strength, and is one tier higher than the Weapon Master."

"You're too slick!"

Initially, everyone was nodding along with his analysis, thinking he had a clear view. But after this round of analysis, it seemed he hadn't really said anything definitive.

Xiang Lu couldn't help but tease, "You can't do that, it's like you didn't say anything at all!"

This analysis was as fierce as a tiger, but in the end, he just stated the advantages of both sides. The actual outcome still depended on how they fought, which was no different from not saying anything.

"In my opinion, Mad Iron's Berserker is a bit stronger," Wang Xiaoling's eyes sparkled.

"Berserkers are so cool! And they get stronger as they're injured. Although the Weapon Master is impressive, his endurance can't match the Berserker!"

"Xiaoling, stop swooning!" Fang Xuan and Zuo Jiaojiao quickly reminded her. They weren't alone now!

No one had expected Wang Xiaoling to like muscular men like Berserkers.

Xu Luo pretended not to hear this.

"Not necessarily!" Zheng Qiao, of course, stuck to his judgment.

"The 'Master' in Weapon Master isn't just for show. At the Silver tier, no unit understands weapons better than him. Plus, the Weapon Master's strength isn't weak, and his techniques completely outclass the Berserker. Once the Berserker is exhausted, won't victory be easy?"

Each person supported their chosen contestant. At this moment, they weren't just friends hanging out together, but a group of passionate fans.

Xu Luo just smiled, not joining in their debate.

In his view, discussing units was meaningless. There was no clear distinction between which was stronger or weaker, as there was no obvious advantage or disadvantage.

But now, the most important issue wasn't this.

Rather, it was which of the two controlling them could better bring out their unit's strength, determining who had a higher chance of victory.

This was also a consideration for many underground God Fighters when choosing units to possess for battle.

Not just any fanatic believer could be used for possession in battle.

If the compatibility wasn't right, even if you merged with a unit, you couldn't bring out its full combat power.

For example, even if Clear River had a fanatic Berserker, his personality wouldn't allow him to fully utilize its strength.

Similarly, if Mad Iron possessed a Weapon Master, his personality would clash with the Weapon Master's nature.

One was used to broad, powerful moves, while the other excelled in various combat techniques. How could these two possibly be in sync?

Xu Luo was considering what he should think about and what selection criteria he should have if he needed to possess a Zerg for battle in the future.

The core question was: What was his own personality like?

However, in the end, there was no suitable answer.
