Chapter 498: Mastery Tornado
Translator: Oneshotwonder Editor: Hitesh_
"Tornado?" The name quickly piqued everyone's attention.
"Yes, this is a mid-level wind elemental Mastery. I want our team to specialize in the wind-fire hybrid mastery. By mixing the two, we would be able to multiply our damage output."
The promise of the new and powerful mastery combination kept everyone on the edge of their seats.
"Hybrid Mastery?" Ye Zi's mind raced. She had learned of such method while she was with the Divine Mastery sect. However, she had never heard of anyone mentioning it outside the Sect, much less putting it into action.
However preposterous Wang Tong's plan sounded to be, no one doubted it, not even Ye Zi.
Guan Dongyang firmly believed that Wang Tong's plan was not an overshoot. In fact, he would never doubt anything that Wang Tong told him. His job right now was to carry out Wang Tong's will, and there was no need to ask questions. The fate of the Battle Wolf was at Wang Tong's disposal ever since Guan Dongyang and Wang Tong's exchange of hearts on the way back from the tournament.
"Wang Tong has plotted out the course for us. We only live once, so we can't pass up the opportunity to be remembered throughout history as the most bada*s mastery warriors. I have already said all I want, and the rest will depend on our actions!" Guan Dongyang encouraged the mastery casters, his voice holding an unwavering determination.
"Yes, Captain!"
…
Despite yesterday's training, the Instant Cast remained an impossible hurdle for most mastery casters except for Ye Zi and Hamir. Wang Tong knew that he shouldn't push the casters too far too quickly; things such as the mastery cultivation took time and patience.
After a while, Wang Tong ordered everyone to take a break. He sat down beside Guan Dongyang and started chatting with him.
"Is there still no news from the City of Maersa?"
"Nothing. It's been strangely quiet in there." Guan Dongyang replied. The inactivity of Zergs had confused him.
"I don't like it. We need to send out some scouts. Are you sure our camp is safe?"
"No one knows of our location other than ourselves. But you are right; we need to double the guards."
"What's going on with the other factions?"
"Also quiet. But, their silence is less alarming than the Zergs'. I think they are still recovering from the shock."
"I bet that they are waiting for us to make a move on the City. We are still too weak to scale that wall. At best, we can lure the Zergs out of the city into the open."
"I agree. It's not just the walls… The Zergs have burrowed complicated tunnels under the city, linking them with surrounding areas and giving them much greater mobility than us."
"They are a smart lot! The dark ones live in the city, and the primal Zergs hide under the earth. I have never seen a better use of space."
"To hell with those pests, digging holes everywhere. "
"What do you think of their decision of becoming more like humans?"
"It might have given them a short-term advantage, a huge one at that. But, they have overlooked the dark side of human traits. Zergs had always excelled in unity, but one will only need to glance over the human history to know why human traits would not sit well in a Zerg colony. I have the full confidence in humans' eventual victory. " Guan Dongyang announced.
"Yes, and no. You are right in saying that the dark ones are prone to human weakness. But, you are wrong because our biggest enemy is not the dark ones." Wang Tong said with a thoughtful smile.
Guan Dongyang's answer was based on his experience on Mars, which was the most optimistic one among all other major planets. The reason behind that was not because the Mars lacked Zergs, but because Mars' Zergs were mostly low-level first generation primitive Zergs.
On the Earth and the Moon, the situation had deteriorated beyond control. Not only Patroclus had killed humanity's last hope, Einherjars, but one Einherjar's switching of alliance had dealt a devastating blow to their morale as well.
All the torment and suffering of the human race could be traced back to one person: Patroclus.
If he hadn't betrayed his own people, the Zergs would have never taken control of the Earth and the Moon. Patroclus was not only the best strategist the world had ever seen, but he knew the weakness in the confederation. Instead of spreading the plague of distrust and infighting among the Zergs, Patroclus used it against the human forces.
Under the pressure of Patroclus and the hybrid race, the immortals, that he had created, the human resistance force was on the brink of annihilation.
Not only did Einherjar Andres die in his attempt to undo his mistake, but Einherjar Li Zhidao was also gravely injured while trying to stop Patroclus from committing more crimes. Till this day, Li Zhidao was still recovering from his wounds. Although Li Zhidao was able to deal a few powerful blows to Patroclus, the Ivantian's new body had allowed him to recover at an incredible rate.
Some believed that Patroclus had fully recovered a while ago, but he was biding his time, using the human resistance as a bargaining chip to help him exert influence under the nose of the Queen Zerg. Some even believed that Patroclus was using the time to cultivate a new powerful tactic.
Wang Tong patted on Guan Dongyang's shoulder and then said, "I look forward to the challenge to fight him for the third time."
"Hehe, only you would say that."
As time flew by, the ten days of boot camp training were was finally over. Although Wang Tong still taught the higher level techniques, the members of the focus group had taken up the responsibility of training the other soldiers.
From there on, Wang Tong felt that his job had become much easier. Considering the large differences in soldiers' levels, Wang Tong didn't require everyone to be on the same page immediately.
During the METAL combat classes, Wang Tong taught the warriors a new skill: Flame Cut. Before he took over the training, Guan Dongyang had always encouraged the METAL warriors to learn Mastery, but the drastically different exercise had spread the soldiers' focus too thin. The Flame cut had struck a fine balance between the soul energy, GN force, and the natural forces.
In addition, based on Wang Tong's observation, he had found out that most Martians' inner energy was more compatible with the fire element, which explained why the House Lie had always been using fire-related tactics. Wang Tong was confident that the combination of the Flame cut and the Divine Burst should be able to increase the overall combat ability of Battle Wolf.
Wang Tong was also aware that in addition to increasing the overall power of the team, he also needed to groom a few exceptionally tough warriors as leaders and champions of the band. Wang Tong hoped that the members of the focus group would eventually be able to fill that role.
In addition to the Flame Cut and the Divine Burst, Wang Tong also taught a few selected soldiers the Six Death Slashes. This was a special technique that Wang Tong had created based on his years of fighting with the Zergs. Each one of the six strikes aimed at the vital points of the Zergs, and would cause instant death. So deadly were these sword techniques that the METAL fight would have to be very careful even when training.
Things got a little bit more complicated when it came down to the mastery training. Wang Tong could only provide instructions about the basic theories, while it was up to the mastery casters to comprehend the meaning over time and apply the theory in real fights.
When Wang Tong started to teach the mastery casters the group mastery using combined elements, even he was caught off guard by how complicated the stuff could get. However, thanks to the solid foundation that Guan Dongyang had provided to the mastery warriors, they eventually overcome the difficulties and started to grasp the concept.
While the rest of the team was improving by leaps and bounds, Wang Tong and Guan Dongyang also sparred with each other from time to time. Since Guan Dongyang had just advanced into level nineteen, he needed to adjust to his new power. The adjustment process could have taken him at least three to five years, but with Wang Tong's help, he felt he had made huge improvements every day.
