Amir smiled. Hanses was also a level-18 Arcanist, but he was not as famous as Guan Dongyang. One's level only represented the strength of one's soul energy, and Hanses was not as good as Guan Dongyang's. Most importantly, Guan Dongyang was still young. "Sigh … Guan Dongyang is definitely one of the top five Arcanists on Mars.
"Sigh … Guan Dongyang is definitely one of the top five Arcana Masters on Mars, and he will definitely become someone great in the future. That arcana spell is too powerful. Although the Zerg's arcana defense is weak, the range and damage of the arcana spell are much higher than a normal Level-18 spell. Either Guan Dongyang has leveled up, or he has learned something new. The path of a METAL warrior is already set in stone, but the path of arcana spells is full of possibilities."
Hans also sighed, his eyes filled with envy. He was already forty years old this year, and although he was also at level eighteen, it was very difficult for him to understand arcana. However, every little bit of understanding would give an arcanist a lot of motivation, and the higher the level of an arcanist, the more they would feel this way. The biggest difference between an arcanist and a METAL Warrior was that a METAL Warrior would need to be at least level twenty to feel the laws of nature, while an arcanist would be able to feel a little bit of the laws of nature after reaching level sixteen.
Without a doubt, the Profound Principles were enough to enchant any Arcanist.
"So strong? I'm a little interested now."
Amir rubbed his chin and thought to himself. He had his own plans, but did he really need to go all out just to help Guan Dongyang?
The fact that Guan Dongyang's talent had earned Lie Jian's admiration was proof enough, but the fact that Lie Jian couldn't even move Guan Dongyang's heart proved that Guan Dongyang could only be an ally. Amir had to admit that it was a pity that Guan Dongyang couldn't be of any help to Amir. However, Amir wasn't like Lie Jian. If he could have a strong ally, he would be able to save his life in the Bloody Era.
Walking in the world, one could never be unlucky. Accumulating some good karma might save one's life. Emile believed in this.
That was the main reason why he had sent people to deliver the message. However, that wasn't the reason why he needed to take the initiative. He needed to wait and see. Even if he needed help, he would have to wait for Guan Dongyang to come to him first.
If Guan Dongyang was a smart man, he would come to Amir first. Of course, if he was an idiot, he would go to Marcos first.
When had wolves ever made a deal with meat?
The Battle Wolf Squad was immediately mobilized and entered the highest state of alert. The resources that needed to be moved were moved, and the Thunder Fire Squad's movements were closely monitored.
Guan Dongyang, Hamil, and the others were busy preparing for the battle. It was not suitable for them to take the initiative, so they had no choice but to give up. But could they defend themselves?
To be honest, the defense of Battle Wolf's base was so weak that it couldn't even withstand a single blow. The enemy's heavy armored troops had collapsed after a single rumble. Yet, they were actually prepared to defend their base … It was as if they had given themselves an easy target.
Or was he giving the enemy a false impression of being a scout?
Meanwhile, Wang Tong was standing on top of a rocky mountain, looking down at the terrain below. If the Battle Wolf decided to run away, Wang Tong would not be able to stop him. After all, he couldn't lead such a large force around the world. However, where could they run to?
Leaving the Maersa region would be even more dangerous. At least the Battle Wolf Squad knew the Zergs' territory like the back of their hand, and if they were to leave the region, they would be easily devoured by the Zergs. Furthermore, the Battle Wolf Squad might also be devoured by the Zergs if they ventured into other regions.
The bigger factions would only grow stronger when they devoured the smaller factions. This was also a way for the Resistance Army to grow stronger. Battles and wars were inevitable, but it was also a way for the Resistance Army to grow stronger, and the victors would only grow stronger.
There would definitely be consumption, and this was unavoidable. It was just like how the Zergs had to change their original principles in order to evolve into humans, and even the purity of the Zergs.
According to the Kaedeians, the Zergs had existed for hundreds of thousands of years. The Kaedeians had no idea where the Zergs came from. They had encountered the Zergs during one of the interstellar voyages. The Kaedeians were ambitious, and they were not afraid of any enemies. A war broke out immediately, and the Kaedeians lost again and again until their home planet was destroyed. Although the Zergs had been evolving, they had never changed their ways of evolution, and the humans were proud to be able to do so.
Of course, that was what the Kaedeians said. Pride was meaningless, and the survival of the race was the most important thing.
Wang Tong was like a ghost, and his body flickered from one direction to the other. He had circled around the Battle Wolf Squad in a circle.
Charcoal appeared beside Wang Tong and said, "Master, it is done."
"Okay, mission accomplished. It's a dish that's delivered to my doorstep. It would be a waste not to eat it."
"You are in a good mood, Master."
"Haha, even if you hate me, tell me more jokes when you have time."
"Master, I don't know how to tell jokes."
"Idiot."
Wang Tong didn't expect Charcoal to be able to do everything, he had already done a lot. "What's your range of knowledge? Give me a number."
"Master, three thousand meters."
"Good. Let's wait for the show to begin."
"Captain, the news has been leaked." Li Xiu said with a smile.
"Hehe, this move of beating the grass to scare the snake is quite effective."
"That's true. Those small forces are all masters who see the wind and set the helm. If you want them to obey, you have to give them some pressure." Li Xiu nodded. They had no intention of launching a surprise attack. Killing Battle Wolf was not their goal. Their goal was to prove their strength and stand up from where they had fallen. They wanted to let everyone in the Maersa region know that the Thunder Fire Group was in charge.
"But according to our intel, Guan Dongyang has no intention of running away." Randolph said.
"Hmph, he probably thinks he can scare everyone off with just one Arcana Spell. War is never about one person. Even an Einherjar can't escape death. Plus, he has really pissed off Nihlathak. I'm afraid Guan Dongyang won't even have the chance to use his Arcana Spells." It would be a lie to say that he wasn't afraid of Guan Dongyang's Arcana Techniques. What he needed now was a victory, a victory by the skin of his teeth. Last time, Nihlathak had been bewildered by the bearded Arcana Master. Arcana Masters were a class that could harness the power of nature to create powerful effects, but Nihlathak knew that it was impossible.
A legendary master in his thirties didn't make sense at all. There were only two legendary masters in the younger generation of Mars, and only one arcanist. Michaux? Odin, what if that bearded man was Michaux? Odin, the Divine Master Sect would be able to destroy the Thunder Fire Squad before they could even fight back.
It was most likely a smokescreen. Nihlathak was really pissed off. The more powerful a person was, the more they cared about their reputation. That was why he didn't hesitate to kill Guan Dongyang. If he didn't do so, he wouldn't be able to hold his head up high in the future.
"What do you plan to do?"
"If we want to establish our hegemony in Maersa, the first step is to establish our prestige, and the second step is to eliminate the Blizzard. Once the Blizzard is gone, we will be able to unify the Maersa region. Then, we can concentrate our forces to deal with the Zergs slowly. This time, we have to use the first shot. We don't need to launch a sneak attack, just besiege Guan Dongyang from the front. If Guan Dongyang is smart, he will submit to me.
"You are wise, Commander. In this era, we must rule with an iron fist. For the sake of the big picture, we must shed some blood," Li Xiu said.
Everyone burst into laughter. What they had lost a while ago, they were going to get it back with interest this time.
The entire Maersa region was shocked by the Thunderfire Group's actions. More than 5,000 soldiers, including a 500-man heavy armor regiment, were gathered together to attack Battle Wolf.
Five thousand soldiers, and two hundred of them were like an atomic bomb to kill a mosquito.
Everyone knew that if the monkey didn't listen to them, they would be killed.
These five thousand people weren't just there to make up the numbers. Their quality was pretty good. The combination of the Thunder Fire Group and the Rock Explosion Group had indeed allowed the Thunder Fire Group to expand greatly in a short period of time. There were also a few small resistance groups that had joined the Thunder Fire Group.
The Battle Wolf Squad had missed their best chance to escape. Now that the Thunder Fire Squad had arrived, there was only one outcome left for the Battle Wolf Squad.
However, Marcos was smart enough to send someone to negotiate with Guan Dongyang even though he had the upper hand. Of course, the only content of the negotiation was that the Battle Wolf Squad would submit to the Thunder Fire Squad, and Guan Dongyang would become the leader of the Thunder Fire Squad.
"Captain Guan, think about it. Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the lives of the Battle Wolf Squad. You can't just let them die with you."
Li Xiu had personally come to Guan Dongyang's rescue at such a sensitive time. Guan Dongyang was indeed brave.
If it had been in the past, Guan Dongyang would have been intimidated by Li Xiu's words. Li Xiu had used both carrot and stick to force Guan Dongyang to submit. Li Xiu waited patiently.
Whether Guan Dongyang succeeded or not, it would put a lot of pressure on Guan Dongyang. By then, it would be easier for Nihlathak to get rid of the Battle Wolf Squad.
Killing two birds with one stone was a win-win situation.
Guan Dongyang smiled. "Tell Marcos that if he thinks about the lives of his five thousand men, I will let him go. Otherwise, don't blame me for what happens next."
Li Xiu's face darkened. "Captain Guan, don't blame us for being merciless."
"I don't know who's being merciless." Guan Dongyang's smile disappeared, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Sensing Guan Dongyang's murderous intent, Li Xiu remained calm. "What? Captain Guan, are you going to kill me? I am just a tactician, and I am no match for a Level-18 Arcana Master. However, since I dared to come, I am not afraid of death."
"There is no need to kill you now. Go back and tell Marcos to wash his neck and get the hell out of here." Guan Dongyang waved his hand, and Li Xiu was thrown out of the room like a broken sack.
