"Although we are fewer in number, we are more agile. Destroying a city is not a problem for us." Michaux said. "However, I am afraid that the only way to turn the tide of the war is to destroy the Dark Lord."
"Hehe, you're right. Since we're already here, wouldn't it be a waste to sacrifice so many warriors if we don't kill him? However, the strength of Demon Palace is indeed not something we can deal with with so few people. However, if someone were to slap his face, I think Mo Ye wouldn't be able to sit still even if he doesn't have a temper!"
Lie Jian said with a sly smile. He knew that it was impossible to deal with the Zergs head-on. Instead, he had to resort to every trick in the book.
"I will leave it to you."
"Hehe, let's build a city first, Antonio City. I'm all too familiar with this city. Back then, I loved to pick up girls there the most. I really don't know how many parts of it are still intact."
"Antonio it is." Michaux smiled. Battles were not difficult for him. From the very beginning, as the young master of the Divine Master Sect, he had never been able to enjoy life. To outsiders, it might seem like a pleasurable occupation, but in reality, it was very difficult. The training of the will was unimaginable. Michaux himself was talented, and he had long mastered the training of the five senses.
However, Michaux was not omnipotent. He was not on the same level as Lie Jian when it came to commanding and fighting.
Therefore, the two of them would not have any conflicts in this regard.
"This time, we have to give the insects a surprise. The most distinctive feature of Antonio City is its sewer system. With the characteristics of the insects, I think the sewer system will not be destroyed. This time, we will give them a surprise."
The dark ones were not indifferent to the arrival of so many guests. Wang Tong, Lie Jian, Michaux, and Odin were among the top ten dark ones' must-kill list. Odin was in the top ten of the Dark Race's must-kill list. Normally, it was difficult to find him, but now that he had come knocking on their door, they wouldn't hold back.
However, the location of these dark ones' target was still the focus of the battle.
At night, Antonio was still as beautiful as ever. The defenders of the city had already retreated before the Dark Ones' army arrived, so the city was still in good condition. The Dark Ones had made some modifications to the city and were using it as their base. Of course, the population of the Dark Ones wasn't that large, so they only used the city's center as their base. Now that the base was empty, the bugs had all rushed to the frontlines.
Lie Jian and his team were traveling through the sewers. Perhaps it was due to the Zergs being more sensitive to the environment down there, as the sewers were cleaner than they had been under human control. A few Level 20 Zergs were leading the way, all of whom were highly trained to deal with Zerg scouts. The key to a surprise attack was to avoid detection from the enemy.
It was true that Lie Jian had played with everything in the past, including the sewers. That was why he had such an idea. Also, that girl was a popular singer on Mars at that time.
It was just that things remained the same, but the people had changed.
"Prepare the bombs and gather in ten minutes!"
"Yes!"
The soldiers in charge of the installation were in groups of two. According to the instructions given by the Skylink, the insects on the city wall had already begun to move. They had discovered the enemy, but they had yet to figure out the enemy's location.
The Dark Ones didn't want to dig into the sewers. Unfortunately, the number of prototype Zergs in the city was not as high as they had thought.
After the installation was complete, the Dark Ones immediately retreated to a safe distance. Once the bombs were detonated, they would be ready to attack.
When Lie Jian and his team came out of the city, they could sense that the Zergs in the city were in a state of chaos. Michaux had sensed that something was wrong the moment he entered the city.
It was his intuition, but he didn't have any evidence to back it up. He didn't want to use his intuition to interfere with Lie Jian's decision. After all, this was not the time to be overly suspicious.
However, ever since he came out of the city, his intuition had grown stronger and stronger.
"Something's wrong! We might have been tricked!"
"Boss, the bombs haven't exploded yet. The first wave of Zergs is about to explode!" a soldier said.
"Retreat!"
Lie Jian said decisively. He knew that something was wrong. Even if the Dark Ones did not have enough soldiers, they shouldn't have been able to get into the city so easily.
Rumble …
The ground cracked open and swarms of Zergs crawled out of the ground. At the same time, dark ones and prototype Zergs swarmed in from all directions.
A giant dark being flew at the front of the group. "Haha! Are you Wang Tong or Lie Jian? How dare you try to attack the city with such a small group of people? You must be very sneaky. How could you escape the Zergs' surveillance?"
There was a type of Zerg Grenade Bug that specialized in bomb disposal. No matter what kind of bomb was swallowed by them before it could explode, the possibility of it exploding again was zero.
It was a trap.
King of Darkness ordered that the only mission of the cities was to kill these intruders.
"Go! Remember, leave their heads intact. His Majesty wants to make dessert with their brains!" The leader of the dark ones laughed.
This wasn't the first time Michaux and Lie Jian had encountered such a situation. They had to break out of the encirclement.
Their plan was good, but they had neglected the difficulty of a sneak attack. In fact, with the Zerg's quick reflexes, they would have long been prepared, especially since this was the Zerg's territory. It was too difficult to hide from the Zerg's detection.
In the end, Wang Tong decided to launch an open attack with his superior mobility and fighting ability. Meanwhile, the soldiers were also mentally prepared for what was to come.
However, Lie Jian and the rest of the dark ones weren't prepared for this. It was hard to say how much fighting power they would be able to muster.
The soldiers formed a circle around Michaux. Odin and the rest of the arcanists were already preparing their spells.
The battle was incomparably intense. What was an encirclement? It was to not give the opponent any chance.
The dark ones weren't idiots. After all, the Dark Lord's strict orders had made it clear to all the city leaders that those who had discovered the presence of the humans would be executed.
Those who managed to kill the humans would be rewarded handsomely, and those who managed to capture the important humans would be promoted to the next rank.
Moye didn't want his men to be stupid. Instead, he wanted them to use their brains and unleash their full potential.
The reason why the dark ones wanted to evolve was not only to improve their fighting power, but also to improve their fighting prowess.
This was the most important point, and it was definitely what the Queen Mother wanted to see.
At least in Moye's mind, the Queen would definitely favor the development of the Dark race. The Dark race could evolve infinitely because of the Zergs, while the Protoss relied on human beings. Moreover, the quality of the Protoss depended on many factors. One was the power of the carrier, and the other was the power of the Zergs.
Although the dark ones weren't as powerful as the Immortals at the moment, it was hard to say who would win in the long run.
Lie Jian and the other METAL soldiers charged toward the corner of the building, but they had no choice but to defend themselves. Fortunately, Michaux and Odin's spells were beyond the Zergs' imagination, and they managed to create some confusion among the dark ones. Otherwise, a rain of bone spikes would have been enough to kill many of them.
It was impossible for them to break out of the building, as all the exits had been blocked. Lie Jian was a ruthless man, so he decided to charge into the city without hesitation. At least they wouldn't be forced into a passive position by the dark ones.
The dark ones had been through a lot, and Michaux and Odin had managed to clear a path for them. The city leader, B-Jie Zhe, was enraged. He knew that the dark ones wouldn't be able to react in time, but they had underestimated one person.
City Lord B-Jie Zhe flew into a rage. Under these circumstances, the other party would not have been able to react in time. The speed of the Arcana Group was not that fast, but they had still underestimated one person.
B-Jie Zhe was furious. Odin was the most powerful human arcanist in the world.
He had unleashed a large area of effect Glare Fire in the blink of an eye.
It wasn't an offensive spell, as even Michaux wouldn't be able to cast it in a matter of seconds. It was similar to Wang Tong's Radiant Light, which was used to scare people away.
Radiant Light was used to create blind spots, while Glare Fire had a certain burning effect. The most important thing was that the sound of the explosion was enough to blot out the sky.
To be honest, it was an illusion.
Michaux's reaction was also fast enough. The illusion had disrupted the enemy's rhythm, giving the soldiers and the arcanists enough time to react.
Lie Jian was quick to react. No one said a word. Almost every second was precious. Lie Jian was quick to react as well. No one said a word to each other, and every move they made was coordinated.
Once the dark ones charged into the midst of the dark ones, their bone spikes would no longer be effective. Their METAL suits were strong enough to protect them, and any Zerg around them could be used as a shield.
As long as they had a building, they wouldn't have to worry about the dark ones.
No matter how strong one was, one couldn't be God in a war.
Lie Jian and Michaux? Odin had already fully experienced this. They occupied a building and set up layers of defense, while the outside was also surrounded by insects.
This time, Michaux was confident that they would be able to advance to the next level. Every dark one and prototype Zerg in the city had been mobilized to ensure that they wouldn't be able to escape.
Even though the Zergs didn't know that humans didn't know how to dig tunnels, they didn't know how to dig tunnels.
The Zergs attacked in waves, and the buildings were riddled with holes. Every time the Dark Ones attacked from the sky, the ground would be attacked by groups of Zergs, and the Arcanists would unleash a volley of ice arrows. These were the elites of the Divine Master Sect.
As the Sage Sect that had the deepest understanding of arcana on Mars, they knew very well that Mars was a planet of the cold element. The cold element was stronger, but the Martians were of the fire element, so they were more familiar with using the fire element arcana. However, in order to pursue greater power, the arcanists of the elite arcana team obviously had to practice the cold element arcana, and the process was indeed complicated.
However, if they all died here, what about Michaux? Odin didn't want to give up.
