"My name is Char. Please send me to Lothar's base. It is not far from here. I am sure you will be rewarded handsomely." Char's expression changed, and he seemed to be very friendly.
"We are going to Jadeite City. We can't stray too far." Duo Lun said hesitantly. Char seemed to be fine, but he didn't seem to be a good fighter. It would be dangerous for him to encounter any Zergs along the way.
"Jadeite City? We are going in the same direction. If you can send me back, I can point you to a shorter route."
Chael glanced at the dilapidated maglev car that the four of them were in and said.
"Since we are going in the same direction, we will send you back. You don't need the maglev vehicle," Wang Tong said calmly.
"Sure, pretty medical officer, I'll thank you for saving my life when we arrive at Lothar," Chael said enthusiastically.
Chael was very talkative, and his attitude had changed a lot as well. Along the way, he was chatting about everything under the sun. Wang Tong heard a lot of useful information from Chael. Recently, Emerald City had won a few battles, and their morale was high. Although most of the battles were defensive battles, they did kill a lot of Zergs.
The resistance forces had also been harassing the Zergs with the help of the Jadeite City, and they had achieved good results.
Although they were a little off course, they didn't mind it too much. The negotiation at Jadeite City was not urgent, and it might take them a while to get there.
They had been traveling for a whole day, but they still hadn't reached their destination. Fortunately, the four of them were strong, and they weren't afraid of encountering any Zergs.
"Duo Lun, Tan Bu, you guys go check out the surroundings." Wang Tong said.
"Yes, Captain."
Char, who had been chatting with Ye Zi, stood up and said, "I will go with them. I have a feeling that we are close by."
"Haha, Mr. Char, we are busy. We will send you back for another half a day." Wang Tong said.
"Alright, we will be there tomorrow morning. Thank you very much."
Duo Lun and Tan Bu didn't mind, and they walked out of the tent with Char.
Ye Zi finally heaved a sigh of relief. "This guy sure talks a lot, but he's quite interesting."
Chael was a knowledgeable man, and he was able to gather some useful and useless information about Mars. Lun Duo and Tan Bu were busy with their training during the long journey, so they didn't talk much. Ye Zi kept her distance from Wang Tong, and Chael was like a lubricant to Wang Tong's journey, so Wang Tong decided to accompany him for the rest of the journey.
In a dangerous place, it was inevitable for a person to beg others.
On the other side, Chael walked for a while and suddenly wanted to walk towards the back of the col. At the same time, he said to Duo Lun and Tan Bu, "Brothers, please help me out. I feel that there's an outpost up ahead. If there's someone there, it'll be convenient. We don't have to wait until tomorrow. My men can come and pick me up.
"There's no need for thanks. In order to send you off, we have indeed delayed our formation. However, human lives are more important. Ha ha," said Tan Bu with a laugh.
"Of course, of course." Chael nodded repeatedly, his face revealing a look of admiration. Along the way, other than the beginning, he had been a little submissive, purposely trying to curry favor. Lun Duo and Tan Bu did not mind, it was all for survival. If they were left in the wilderness, it would be hard for them to survive.
After walking for another ten minutes, Tan Bu grew impatient and asked, "Why aren't we there yet?"
"We're almost there. Look, there's light up ahead." Chael smiled and pointed at a spot not far away. "Looks like we're in luck."
"We're finally here." Duo Lun let out a sigh of relief. They didn't need to worry about Wang Tong's strength anyway.
Chael suddenly pointed at the front and asked, "What's that?" His voice was filled with shock.
Duo Lun and Tan Bu instinctively looked over, but Chael had already stabbed Tan Bu with his dagger. Tan Bu was a level fourteen fighter, but he still couldn't dodge the attack, and his waist was cut open.
"Chael, are you out of your mind? What are you doing?"
Tan Bu held his waist as he sensed something was wrong. Suddenly, there were forty to fifty people in the dark.
Chael spun the dagger in his hand like a nimble butterfly, and the people around him started to laugh.
"Idiot, you still don't get it? Young master Chael wants your lives."
"Although the merchant caravan didn't show up, I'm happy to have a cute medic."
Chael let out an obscene smile.
"Young master is wise. I heard that the medic of the Divine Master Sect is very cute."
"Don't worry, I'm done playing around. Everyone will get a share, and we can sell it for a good price."
The crowd burst into laughter again.
Duo Lun and Tan Bu knew that they were in danger. Some of them were even more powerful than them.
"The dagger is poisoned." Tan Bu said in a low voice. Even though he was in a difficult situation, he still managed to keep his cool.
Duo Lun gritted his teeth. He didn't expect that his kindness would lead to such a disaster.
"I'll take you out later."
"Stall for time, I'll suppress the poison."
Chael didn't care about the whispers of the two, "Hehe, you want to stall for time, right? Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry. You should have heard of X-593, right? I've never heard of anyone being able to expel it by themselves."
Tan Bu's face changed slightly. He could feel that his nuclear force couldn't suppress the poison. The poison was quite cunning and was moving around. At the same time, it was slowly approaching his spirit sea. If the poison entered, it would be really serious.
Chael wasn't in a hurry at all. He slowly took out a small bottle, "This is the antidote. Although the two of you aren't high in rank, your strength is really not bad. What future can you have by following a pretty boy? I have everything he has, and if you follow me, your future will be limitless. Perhaps, when I'm done playing with that medic, you can have a taste of it."
Although Duo Lun and Tan Bu were furious, there was no time to be angry. It was better to think of a solution. Observing the enemy's encirclement, Duo Lun observed for a moment. There was no chance for them to force their way in. If Tan Bu wasn't injured, they might have a chance, but now … … they could only attack from Char's side. The rest were obviously led by him.
Duo Lun hoped that Wang Tong wouldn't be able to discover them from such a far distance. Tan Bu's face was covered in sweat, and he knew that this was a critical moment.
"Who the hell are you? We saved you out of kindness, and yet you're biting the hand that feeds you? Do you still have any humanity left?"
Duo Lun said angrily.
"Human nature? Haha, he's talking to us about human nature. Is there something wrong with your brain? In this day and age, we live one day at a time. What is human nature? The strong preys on the weak. I only spared your lives because I saw that you two were quite strong. Hurry up, I've put something in the water they drank. After I'm done with you, I still want to consummate my marriage. Chael was getting impatient. Not everyone could play the role of a medic, even someone like him.
"Let's go!" Tan Bu shouted.
Both of them were well-coordinated, and they dashed toward Chael before Tan Bu even finished his sentence.
"Die!" Chael didn't panic. He launched two Arcane Fireballs at Duo Lun and Tan Bu. He didn't need to cause any damage, as long as he could slow them down.
Tan Bu didn't have enough time to dodge the attack, so he slashed at Chael with his sword. Duo Lun twisted his body and dashed toward Chael.
However, Chael had already unleashed a Fire Dragon, and the surrounding METAL Fighters immediately swarmed him. Chael was at least a level fifteen arcanist.
In an instant, Lun Duo and Tan Bu were surrounded. Dozens of Armed Warriors surrounded them, while the rest watched from the sidelines.
Chael sneered. He didn't expect these two to be so stubborn. Since they didn't know what was good for them, then he wouldn't hold back.
"Kill!"
The people surrounding Duo Lun immediately increased their attacks. Duo Lun was risking his life, but Tan Bu was almost at his limit. The moment he exerted his strength, the poison would rush into his Soul Sea.
"Duo Lun, leave! Don't worry about me!" Tan Bu was hit by another sword.
"Get lost! We'll die together!"
Duo Lun was also hit by a sword as he spoke. Although he saw Duo Lun risking his life like a madman, he didn't dare to risk his life. Obviously, no one was willing to exchange injuries for the life of a dying person.
At that moment, Tan Bu let out a deep roar and unleashed his GN Force. At the same time, he cast a God Explosion.
"Go!"
His eyes instantly turned bloodshot. "Go!"
Suddenly, he grabbed Duo Lun and threw him away. At the same time, he dashed toward Chael like a madman. Chael didn't expect this guy to be so reckless. The poison entering his Soul Sea was like countless needles stabbing into his brain. It was not something a normal person could endure.
A level fourteen fighter who went berserk was extremely ferocious, especially when Tan Bu used a God Explosion. He took a hit from Duo Lun's sword and injured two people. However, the poison had already entered his brain, and he couldn't control himself anymore.
Duo Lun didn't want to leave, so he dashed toward Chael as soon as he landed.
Meanwhile, Chael had already left the battlefield. He cursed under his breath. He didn't expect to meet two madmen like this. One was a level twelve fighter, and the other was a level fourteen fighter. Even though he was poisoned, he was still able to go berserk. If it were any other fighter, they would have already fainted from the extreme pain. But this guy had already injured four people.
"Kill! Chop these two bastards into pieces! Damn it, they don't know what's good for them!"
Duo Lun dashed toward Tan Bu like a trapped beast. He swung his sword at Tan Bu.
"Go for their heads! Don't damage their armors!" Chael shouted. The armors of these two fighters could be sold for a good price, enough to buy a woman.
Suddenly, a white light exploded. Everyone closed their eyes subconsciously. After the white light disappeared, Tan Bu and Duo Lun disappeared. Chael rubbed his eyes and shouted, "Damn it! Who's that? Come out!"
