Chapter 548: We Are All Square
Translator: Oneshotwonder Editor: Hitesh_

After losing so many times at the hands of Battle Wolf, Marcos had learned a hard lesson: appearances could be very deceiving.

"Hehe…I apologize for the noise. Where was I? Ah... Only with unity will we be able to win the war against the Zergs. Unlike our enemy, we are intelligent creatures, and intelligent creatures follow the rules and work together. If we can't even co-exist in a small city, maybe we deserved the Zerg's invasion. " Wang Tong with the same warm smile on his face.

The people who that had been shouting at Wang Tong lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at him in the eyes. Wang Tong scanned the crowd with his soul energy, and all that he could sense was fear.

Marcos remained calm, and a smug curve even found the corner of his lips. He knew all the while that Wang Tong was the least reasonable person.
Guan Dongyang and Yin Tianzong's display of strength had completely silenced all voices of dissidence. They no longer regarded Wang Tong and Yin Tianzong as reckless teenagers, but as overbearing and terrifying warriors. The leaders of other factions also started realizing the reason behind the quietness of Thunder Fire and Blizzard: fear.

The barking dog wouldn't bite, and the same went the other way around. Knowing that Wang Tong would not hesitate to kill, everyone felt that their good days were numbered. No one was certain how strong Battle Wolf had become, and who was behind their sudden rise to power.

After finishing scanning the hall, Wang Tong knew the time for him to exert Battle Wolf's dominance had come. Fear might be able to keep the leaders in check for a while, but without a real display of might, they would never learn their lessons. It had been a while since the Maersa district was united under a strong leader, and Wang Tong was determined to remind them that humans had to unite together under one banner in order to defeat the Zergs. As Wang Tong was going to speak more about the meeting, Divine Master Sect's Chief Medic, Xiao Yuyu, arrived at the stage.

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief at the sight of Xiao Yuyu, thinking that Wang Tong would not kill any more people in front of the representative of the Sect.

However, the fact that even the chief medic from the Sect had joined Battle Wolf spoke loudly about the real power of the band. It was evident that, despite the sky-net, not all the factions had gone through the memo. The factions who had learned about the recent development inside Battle Wolf had kept their lips sealed: it was not wise to gossip about things that one didn't understand fully yet.

Xiao Yuyu had received the young master's order to not meddle in Battle Wolf's business, but remain where she was and observe. Not only did she not expect that order, but she was also very confused by it. She had thought that Michaux would be intrigued by the re-emergence of Wang Tong. If he were not, why would he order her to remain in Battle Wolf and be his eyes? The revelation of Wang Tong's real identity had pulled the rug from under her. Even now, she still found it difficult to make the connection between the greedy businessman at the auction house and the teenage warrior that had defeated Patroclus.

Having learned Wang Tong's real identity, everyone regarded him with a newfound reverence and respect.

Getting over with the greetings, Xiao Yuyu gave the most generic speech to the audiences with perfunctory praises and appreciation for the hard work of everyone involved. After that, she spoke on behalf of the young master and acknowledged the leader status of Battle Wolf in Maersa District.

Although it was just a verbal approval, the words of the young master carried a long way on Mars. Going against the young master's will was an act of apostle, which no other factions would tolerate.

In addition to the seal of approval from the Sect, Wang Tong had made it clear that anyone who dared to oppose him would not end very well; the Cherry Blossom was an example.

Right after Xiao Yuyu's announcement, Wang Tong declared the merging of Battle Wolf with the Fire Squad. Together, they would rule the Maersa City, and they welcomed all other factions to join them. However, they would have to follow the rules like everyone else.
Wang Tong didn't try to impress anyone with his might, but his modesty added more mysteriousness to his power. After the meeting was over, everyone was convinced that he was the young warrior that had defeated the Patroclus in the tournament, the heir of the Blade Warrior. However, being the heir of the blade warrior meant nothing on Mars if Wang Tong was a useless weakling. By then, the power of the warriors serving under him had provided more than enough insight to the other leaders about his ability. Although no one was certain of Wang Tong's exact power, they knew that he was not simply a no account. The ambiguity in his power gave birth to the imagination in the other leaders' minds. The less they knew about Wang Tong, the wilder the imagination became. However, only those who really understood him knew that even the wildest imaginations had caught merely the tip of an iceberg.

Wang Tong's levelheadedness and assertiveness, together with the help from the Divine Mastery Sect, had helped Wang Tong exert dominance in the City of Maersa. Needless to say, the joining of the Fire Squad was of great help to Wang Tong. Without enough competent warriors, it would be impossible to manage such a large city. Ever since they first met, Wang Tong knew that Bu Zhihuo was different from the other greedy b*stards. Instead of fame, money, and power, Bu Zhihuo only cared about the wellbeing of the people on Mars.

Truth be told, When Bu Zhihuo confided in Wang Tong about his intention to provide his service, the latter was quite shocked. Bu Zhihuo used to be the first person who had spoken up against him when the two of them were strangers. However, he had provided the most needed help when they finally got to know each other. They said trust and true friendship were forged under extraordinary circumstances, and it was evident here indeed.

Blizzard was the first to support Wang Tong's proposal. Aamir announced that he would like to station inside the city, and was willing to follow Wang Tong's rules. The Blizzard would fight alongside Battle Wolf as an independent force.

This relationship was more delicate than what appeared on the surface. It was true that Wang Tong would have a say in the matters relating to the sister band Blizzard while it was stationed inside his territory. However, Blizzard did not technically serve Battle Wolf, and therefore, it expected a certain degree of autonomy. It would take more than just respect for Wang Tong to maintain this relationship.

Thunder fire and the Pamir Eagle quickly followed Blizzard's footsteps and seconded Wang Tong's motion. Both bands knew that they needed the resources in the city; meanwhile, Battle Wolf also needed the manpower. Joining forces with Wang Tong was a win-win situation.

As soon as the three of the biggest warbands made their unanimous decision, the rest of the factions followed suit without much hesitation. The crisis was averted by Wang Tong with ease, but there were still many things left undone. The city wouldn't rebuild by itself; in addition, they needed to beef up the defense system and prepare for the impending Zerg counterattack.

The news of the factions' pact quickly reached the ears of ordinary people who were struggling to survive outside the city. The promise of peace and hope drove them to flock into the Maersa City.

As more refugee poured into the city, the administrative gears of Battle Wolf started cranking. Despite the onerous paperwork, everything worked in order without turning into a mess. The extra time that the soldiers spent on helping the refugees didn't interrupt their training routines. Instead, it had given them a healthy dose of reality and spurred them to train even harder.

Seeing the suffering of the refugees, all the major factions realized that although Maersa City did not belong to them, they would have to work together to defend it so that the Zergs would not ravage the innocent people again.



The news about the death of Turbolix quickly reached the Moon, and Patroclus even got a copy of the recording of the fight.

Patroclus watched the tape as if he was appreciating a piece of fine art.

Underneath his throne, two rows of dark ones waited patiently for their lord to finish the clip.

"My lord, let me go and investigate it for you." Lee Moshan requested. He was the only person who dared to speak up while the rest of the dark ones were still guessing what kind of mood Patroclus was in.

"Hehe…Let's leave him to Moye for now. I think he is more eager to meet him than you." Patroclus waved one hand with an indifferent expression, and then continued, "And, I want all the immortals to cooperate with Moye's operation."

Lee Moshan was taken aback by the order. However, with only the slightest hesitation, he nodded. Although he was not sure why Patroclus wanted to help Moye, it was not his place to question his master.

"Have you released Zhang Jing?"

"Yes, my lord…just like you have ordered. We encircled her camp and let her and her team escape through the opening we had left for them." an immortal stood up and answered.

Patroclus nodded. Zhang Jing was his only friend during his human life, so he had decided to allow her three chances to live. By then, Zhang Jin had used up all her three chances, and Patroclus was relieved that he was finally able to sever another tie with his past.
