Chapter 571: Old Memories And New Life
Translator: Oneshotwonder Editor: Hitesh_

Her name was Xiao Zhen, and she was the only person that the Pirate King Zachery could not forget.

Pirate King Zachery had been one of the most notorious outlaws in human history. His actions were even worse than Patroclus' betrayal of the human race. He was the one that opened up the space gate which ushered in the Kaedeians fleet and their pursuers, the deadly Zergs.

He was one of the most formidable villains the world had ever seen. His power was on par with the rest of the trio of legendary warriors: Blade warrior Li Feng, the son of the god Rilangalos, and the Divine Master Andres.

As the flashes of images kept on pouring in, they started to form coherent memories, like rain droplets forming a trickle of water. If not for the Blade Warrior, the Pirate King might have already claimed the world. Even Rilangalos could not overcome him. Not only did he possess an extraordinary power, but he was also cunning and calculated, making him deadlier than any opponent Rilangalos had ever encountered.

However, his glory days were short-lived, because he met his bane, the Blade Warrior. His defeat at the hands of the Blade Warrior was not because he was weak, but because the shackles that God had placed on the humans, so that they would never be as powerful as they were.

During the Mech championship, Zachery had met his doom. However, his body was preserved by a cyborg girl who was madly in love with him. In order to make up for the world on which her loved one had inflicted so much harm, she sacrificed herself and revealed Zachery's final secret to Li Feng.

When the flashes of images retold what had happened to Xiao Zhen in the end, Zachery felt his heart shatter into pieces. However powerful he had been, he felt helpless knowing that the only reason for him to continue living had perished.

At the onset of the Zerg invasion, the humans were ill-prepared. The confederation desperately needed another powerful warrior in addition to general Li Feng. At that time, there were only four warriors who could measure up to the Zerg army. They were Li Feng, Rilangalos, Andres, and Zachery's clone. Zachery's clone was created by Andres by reviving the soul essence of the dead villain. Although he was brought back to life, his memories remained six feet under the earth. The only recollection he had about his past was a vague image of a girl's face. He couldn't even remember that girl's name.

Over centuries of service for the mankind, Zachery finally redeemed himself of his sins. It was time to give back what was his.

What did all the newfound memories mean to the old ghost? Would he live as a new man or would be embarking on his old unsavory path? The choice was Zachery's. The Blade warrior was a thing of the past, and therefore, no one could stop him any longer.

When the last bit of Zachery had entered Mr. Wannabe's mind, the two's thoughts started to merge into one.

KOM!

Zachery let go of the restraint placed on him over the centuries and allowed the energy inside him to flow freely to the outside world. A burst of energy shot through the roof of the tower and into the sky above. The beam of energy pushed the colored clouds out of the way, punching a hole in the starlit sky.

Wang Tong was not surprised by the development. While he was training with Mr. Wannabe in the crystal space, he felt that it was not a coincidence that the old ghost had chosen the form of the infamous pirate lord.

Even after Wang Tong had learned about Mr. Wannabe's notorious past, he was not afraid of the old ghost. However insane Mr. Wannabe had been, he was Wang Tong's closest family now.

The space crystal shattered after it had given up all that it had to offer. Zachery flew himself out of the tower and found Wang Tong, the heir of the Blade Warrior. The Blade Warrior was the culprit of his centuries-long suffering, and now, his revenge was within an arm's reach.

However, he didn't intend to harm Wang Tong; instead, he looked at the latter with a father's loving glance. He threw back his head and shouted. "Li Feng, you had destroyed my life but gave me a son. We are all square!"

Although Zachery had regained his memories, he had lost too many things in the three hundred years. However, the time he had spent with Wang Tong made him feel that all the pain he had suffered in the past was suddenly bearable. He had learned to look forward instead of back.

The fourth seal in the crystal space had finally been lifted and inside of it was nothing but a choice.

Zachery's body slowly materialized in the physical world, and the pirate king was reborn. Coming back to the physical world after so many years didn't bring him joy, since his mind was occupied by the work he needed to do. He said to Wang Tong, "It is time to finish what we have started."

"This is my duty, not anyone else's. But I appreciate your offer, father." Wang Tong knew that Zachery was going to execute his dangerous plan for him. However, he would not allow himself to back down while letting the others do his bidding.

"Good! I am proud of you! Finally, something that I can brag in front of Li Feng…Haha! "

"Go now! Do whatever you have to. There is nothing in the world that can stop you."

Zachery and Wang Tong stood side by side as they looked down at the sprawling city landscape, feeling their blood boiling.

The strange phenomenon that occurred around the tower of the Divine Master had quickly become a viral sensation on the skynet. Everyone believed that this was a message from the god, foretelling their salvation.
During the times as dark and savage as this, the slightest sliver of hope could mean waking up the next day with a smile or eating a bullet in the dark, cold night.

The ordinary citizen could trust their future based on superstitious beliefs, but Wang Tong and Michaux couldn't. Nonetheless, ever since the incident, the population on Mars regarded the sect with even more respect and deference.

After Wang Tong returned to Michaux, the latter didn't ask a thing about what had happened in the tower.

"Are you here to take Xiao Yuyu away from me?" Michaux Odin asked.

"Indeed, she will play a key role in the operation. I hope you understand." Wang Tong admitted right away.

"No problem at all. You can take all of the four chief medics if you so wish." Michaux said. He knew what Wang Tong's mission could change the situation on Mars once and for all.

Wang Tong shook his head. "No need. I only need Xiao Yuyu and ten other regular field medics. Our advantage is not in numbers, but in teamwork. Of course, I will fully disclose the risk with them. They don't have to go if they don't want to."

Michaux nodded. All this while, he admired Wang Tong for his ability to put his words into actions. Lie Jian had thought of the same plan before, but he lacked the courage to take the leap of faith as Wang Tong would.

When Xiao Yuyu was told to go to Michaux's office, her heart skipped a beat. She was right: Wang Tong came for her! But, would Michaux let her go?

Everyone knew that Wang Tong and the young master were no more than acquaintances, and Michaux's real ally was Lie Jian. However, Michaux's recent behavior seemed to suggest otherwise.

"Greetings, young master!"

"Ah, you are finally here. I think you should already know why you are here. Anyway, I will let you talk to Wang Tong, and you can make your own decision."

"Yes."

"Susu, come with me."

"No. I want to stay." Susu straightened her back and pouted. She firmly believed that Wang Tong was a despicable man, and that she absolutely needed to be there to protect Xiao Yuyu.

"Susu, I won't have this nonsense. Come out at this instant!" Michaux hardened his face and refuted. Seeing her brother was getting riled up, Susu lowered her head and left the room reluctantly.

"I do this to protect you, Susu," Michaux said and heaved a sigh of resignation. He knew that if Susu heard Wang Tong's plan, no one would be able to prevent her from joining him. She was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. However tough she thought she was, she wouldn't last long in the harsh reality.

Plus, Michaux was considering a daring operation as well. If anything happened to him, the sect would need a leader.

"Nice to see you, everyone."

"Nice to see you again, captain."

Wang Tong cracked a smile and said, "I need your assistance."

"Just tell us what we have to do. We will not let you down." Xiao Ling announced. Wang Tong told the girls about his plan and reminded them about the danger involved.

"So that is all. We might not be able to return home ever again. I know I am asking a lot from you, so I understand if you wouldn't feel like you are ready for this yet. Don't feel obligated."

"Wang Tong, from the day I joined the sect, I was ready to die for people of the Mars. I will join you! " Xiao Yuyu said firmly.

"Me too!"
