Chapter 539: High Risk, High Reward
Translator: Oneshotwonder Editor: Hitesh_

The resistance forces were still too weak to take the Zergs' blunt force, and therefore, the best option was guerrilla warfare, using movement to nibble away the strength of the Zerg slowly.

When the human factions noticed the activities of the Zerg scouts, they were on high alert, since they didn't know who the Zergs' target was.

In the meeting, when Guan Dongyang, Xiao Yuyu, Ye Zi, Hamir, Ross, and Yin Tianzong heard Wang Tong's plan, they were shocked.

"We are going to attack Maersa?" Ross asked incredulously.

"Hehe… The Zergs are outside the wall, looking for me, so their defense is the weakest right now. I have investigated their defense thoroughly; there is no underground tunnel system inside the city." Wang Tong remarked. He had full confidence in Charcoal's survey capabilities. He wagered that the dark ones inside the city had grown too comfortable and human-like, and had started to dislike the unsanitary living conditions of the primitive Zergs, therefore driving them out of the city.

"Even if we can sack the city, we wouldn't be able to hold it." Hamir lamented. Wang Tong's audacious plan had unnerved him.

Wang Tong didn't mind the opposition, as he turned on the skynet and produced a hologram of Maersa city. "Look here. This north-west corner of the city is a production facility. The dark ones have reinforced it with steel plates, allowing us to establish a strong footing there. As long as we are holding our ground inside the city, the other factions will keep putting pressure on the Zergs from the outside."

"Don't you think this is a little bit too risky? We will be pretty much trapped in there." Guan Dongyang hesitated.

Lie Xuan suddenly piped up, "You idiot! It's such a good opportunity, don't you see? The METAL warriors can hold their ground while the mastery casters can rain spells on them from safety. Even if there are casualties, we have eleven field medics and a chief medic with us. All we have to do is to wait for Blizzard to flank our enemy from behind and destroy them." Lie Xuan was the first one to support Wang Tong's proposal.

Yin Tianzong kept his silence. Although Wang Tong's plan was risky as hell, once successful, they could deal a devastating blow to the Zergs in Maersa District, and turn the tables around.

"I agree with Wang Tong's plan. It might seem dangerous, if not stupid… But in reality, we have the upper hand. The Zergs' attention is focused outside of the city. Once they notice the fight in the wall, they might very well split their forces up." Xiao Yuyu remarked.

Once the Zerg forces were fragmented, it would be much easier for the human resistance forces to overcome them. It would be even better if the dark ones came to the city first, so that Battle Wolf could focus on eliminating them. Once the dark ones were gone, the rest of the Zerg army would pose little to no threat to the human force.

"Well, since you guys are down for it, I am in as well." Ross nodded.

Wang Tong had chosen his battleground carefully. Not only would the confined space inside the city hinder the Zergs' charging abilities, but the city had already been the dark ones' home. So, they would be extra careful with the properties, and would not wreak havoc as they would in human settlements.

Wang Tong had built a dangerous team, and it was time to put them into use. They would light up the beacon of hope for the rest of the humans on the Mars, and send them this message, "In unity, we survive!"

Once the situation on Mars turned around, Wang Tong could then focus on the more difficult task: the Earth and Moon.

"Um... How do we sneak into the city?" Ye Zi asked quietly under her breath.

"We will pack up tonight and decide our route once we have figured the Zergs' marching direction."

Ye Zi nodded and issued the order to all the soldiers in the camp using skynet.

Wang Tong had ordered the reserves to travel to Blizzard and seek temporary shelter there. Wang Tong didn't expect the Blizzard to agree with him, but he informed them about his plan nonetheless.

Guan Dongyang and Yin Tianzong went ahead to the city while Wang Tong remained in the empty camp. He needed to stay here in order to lure the Zergs further away from the city. Yin Tianzong was a legendary warrior, and Wang Tong was confident that he and Guan Dongyang could handle any threat in their way.

Right after Guan Dongyang had left, the Zergs found Battle Wolf's camp and surrounded it. Luckily, Wang Tong was able to persuade everyone to evacuate the camp before the Zergs closed in.

After having confirmed that Wang Tong was inside the closed gate of the camp, the Zerg army started to close the encirclement.

Wang Tong was preparing a large pot of fish soup while he was waiting for the Zergs' advancement. Suddenly, he heard rustling noise outside the gate: his guests had finally arrived.

"Smells good!" Turbolix walked through the gate and towards Wang Tong.

"Come, help yourself." Wang Tong willed Turbolix to sit down beside him.

"Wang Tong, join us," Turbolix asked, almost pleading.

"No." Wang Tong said calmly. He held Turbolix's gaze and noticed that his guest had transformed completely into the Immortals.

Turbolix pulled a taut face and said, "How arrogant! It's no longer the time of the Confederation. This world belongs to us, the immortals… not you, loser!"

Wang Tong cast a pitiful glance at Turbolix, "Patroclus is a traitor, and you are worse than that… You are a bug."

"Say whatever you want… but your life ends today! Both Divine lord and the Dark Lord want you dead."

"I am honored." Wang Tong picked up a slice of fish from the soup and chewed on it. "What do you think will happen if the human resistance force attacks Maersa right now as we speak?"

Turbolix paused for a second and smirked, "That is none of my business. It's Kun's city anyways. I just want you to die…Oh, one more thing, don't you know that Zhou Sisi is still alive?"

Wang Tong put down his fork and looked at Turbolix. "Where is she?"

Sensing that he had caught Wang Tong's attention, excitement flashed across Turbolix's face. "I bet you want to know that really bad, don't you?"

"Yes, but you don't need to tell me. I will find her. Thanks for coming, by the way." Wang Tong stood up and rubbed the grease off his shirt.

Turbolix's face blackened. He knew what Wang Tong meant: he was going to kill him and scan him mind using soul energy to learn the location of Zhou Sisi.

"Haha… You haven't changed a bit! Well, let me introduce you to Mr. Kun, and his level twenty-two Einherjar's Bane!"

"Level twenty-two? You think too highly of me."

"Save your words! Kun, attack!"
