Fortunately, the Arcana Masters had more than enough energy crystals. However, they were completely surrounded by insects that stretched as far as the eye could see. This time, it was impossible for them to escape.
Lie Jian observed the battle. He knew that if he tried to rush in now, he would be courting death. The building they were in was unusually sturdy, and Lie Jian had his reasons for choosing this place. He had studied the city of Antonio in order to pursue that female celebrity. This building was originally called the Antonio Torch, and it was the symbol of the city. Antonio was one of the greatest scientists on Mars, and his most prominent contribution was the discovery of a new element metal. The structure of the Antonio Torch was made of this metal. Before the war, it was used as a signal tower for tourists to visit. The young and energetic Lie Jian had thought that this place was a place where he could do anything. After the war, the structure had been transformed into a bug, but Lie Jian could still recognize it at first glance.
Although the structure was in tatters, it was still sturdy enough. B-Jie Zhe was having a headache over the humans' stubbornness. He had wanted to destroy the structure, but it was later discovered that it was sturdy enough to be used as a symbol of the Zergs' new city. The Dark Ones also liked things that were symbolic, and they did not need to learn from the humans. The Zergs were born with a strong desire to conquer.
However, he was not happy with this damned structure, and the number of casualties was increasing. He had already confirmed the identity of these people, and he was going to be rich. Lie Jian and Michaux? Odin? Two big fishes? That was enough for him to level up two times.
He did not care about anything else. Even if he had to, he would exhaust these humans to death.
The City Lord gave the order to attack continuously, which meant that the humans were not allowed to rest. He did not believe that such a large army could not deal with such a small number of people.
Lie Jian had also noticed that the Zergs were attacking the Zergs in an orderly fashion. The Zergs were attacking the Zergs in batches, and it seemed that the Zergs were determined to defeat the Zergs.
Lie Jian was clear-headed enough to choose this location as their base of operations, but at the same time, it also meant that they had cut off their escape route.
Lie Jian did not think that there was anything to be afraid of. Even if they died, they would show the whole of Mars how powerful they were.
Lie Jian's judgment of the situation was clear. Since there was no way to break out of the encirclement, they could only preserve their strength and wait for an opportunity to strike. Therefore, Lie Jian decisively gave the order to rest in batches. At least a quarter of the soldiers and Arcana Masters were resting.
They had enough weapons, but the only thing they lacked was food. Lie Jian and the others had already gotten used to the smell of bugs. Even the Dark Ones could barbecue them if they had Arcanists with them.
In order to survive, in order to fight to the end, they were willing to give up anything.
Lie Jian's eyes glowed with a green light. This was a man who wanted to unify Mars and build an empire. His goal was to unify the entire human world. How could he fall at a place like this?
There was no such thing as failure in Lie Jian's dictionary.
The battle had been going on for five hours, and Jie Zhe was about to explode. There were so few humans, yet they still couldn't take them down despite using so many soldiers!
What was most intolerable was that the humans had started to eat them right in front of their faces.
Many of the dark ones found this intolerable. Eating was one of the cruelest punishments for the dark ones, but it was only limited to brain matter. However, these humans were eating their bodies as well.
This was a common practice among the Zergs, but they had never encountered a race that was even scarier than the Zergs.
But the human soldiers had done it.
Hold your ground!
They had a sturdy fortress, medical officers, weapons, and food. Although the conditions were poor, the elites of the Divine Master Sect and Lie Jian were all gathered here. They were determined to fight to the death. The dark ones were dreaming if they thought they could take down the fortress in one go. They had underestimated the endurance of humans.
Lie Jian was observing and waiting. He knew that the situation was still relatively simple. Once the dark ones showed up, the situation would not be so optimistic. Other than him and Lie Jian, the Divine Master Sect still had three legendary warriors, while Lie Jian had two. The Devil Palace would not be able to take them down. However, if the situation continued, the Devil Palace would definitely respond.
All they could do now was to wait for the right opportunity.
"Young master, if we continue like this, we will be wiped out sooner or later. Let me lead the soldiers and break through the Zergs' defense. Then, you and the leader can break through," Lie Shan said.
Although he was a Level-22 METAL Warrior, he could see that the situation was hopeless. He could not afford to let Lie Jian die here.
Lie Jian shook his head and said, "Uncle Shan, if we break through, we will die. If everyone dies, there is no point for me to stay alive. What we need to do now is to hold on."
Lie Jian had no choice but to wait and see.
What they had to do now was to hold on. At least as long as they were alive, they would be a torch, a torch to fight back against the insects, an encouragement to the frontline.
In the Devil Palace.
"Jie Zhe has trapped Michaux and Lie Jian in the city. Not bad, not bad at all." Moye was glad to hear such good news, especially when he admired the intelligent dark ones.
The evolution of the dark ones was not just about strength. If it was about combat power, there was no need for them to go through so much trouble. What they needed to learn was the ability to think. Once they mastered the ability to evolve, they would become the masters of the universe.
This process would take a lot of time, but the Zergs had plenty of time. The purpose of their existence was to evolve and destroy.
Any dark one that contributed to the destruction and evolution of the dark ones would be promoted.
"Your Majesty, although the humans only have around three hundred people, they have gathered all of their elite forces, and at the same time, they have slyly occupied advantageous locations. With Jie Zhe's military strength, we can exhaust them to death, but the current situation won't allow us to suffer heavy losses. I suggest that we send out our elite troops to directly seize victory. Jie Zhe's ability to trap their enemies is already a great achievement."
Halmond said.
It seemed that Halmond was living a good life here. Even though the Immortals had been wiped out, he was still alive and well. The conflict between the Immortals and the dark ones was not fully expressed here.
Moye glanced at Halmond with his ghostly eyes. Halmond did not dare to act tough in front of the supreme ruler of the dark races. He was a non-combative God, which was why Moye valued him so much.
Simply put, what Patroclus was doing was what the dark ones wanted to learn and surpass. The birth of the Immortals was filled with Patroclus's personal art. Strength was not the only thing that mattered to the Immortals. Instead, wisdom was the first thing that mattered to the Immortals.
This was the unique characteristic of humans. A person with great strength would think in a simple and crude manner, but when faced with someone with greater strength, they would lose their way. However, a person who was good at thinking would often be able to defeat an opponent with greater strength.
The Zergs were born with strength above all else, but when faced with a problem, they had no choice but to change. Since they had successfully changed, the Imprint of Life in their bodies would allow them to continue on this path.
"You take four Purple Gold Guardians with you. Together with the original strength of Antonio City, it should be enough." Mo Ye nodded.
"As you wish, Your Majesty."
Halmond stood up and bowed to Moye.
Purple Gold Guards were the most powerful Immortals among the dark ones, and they were the guards of the Dark Lord. Their strength was around level twenty-three, and four Purple Gold Guards were enough to deal with Lie Jian, Michaux, and Odin.
"Speed is the most important thing in war. I'll set off now to prevent any complications."
Moye waved a hand.
He was not interested in Lie Jian, but Michaux, Odin, and Wang Tong. Odin and Wang Tong, especially Wang Tong, wanted to stay alive because he wanted to absorb all of the Blade Warrior's power and memories, and to uncover the secrets of the Blade Warrior.
Others might not be able to find it, but Moye could definitely do it. This was one of the abilities of the dark ones.
Moye was not only absorbing, but also harvesting. The success rate of harvesting was also determined by the level of the dark ones.
The other one was Michaux. Odin. Moye still had a vivid memory of the guy who had seriously injured him.
The Dark Race's power came from their own bodies. The energy crystals in the Dark Race's bodies could store energy and release it in battle. They could also use food and other methods to accumulate energy. But the Divine Race's method of directly using Nature's energy was something the Dark Race wanted.
But it was very, very difficult. The Dark Ones had a consciousness structure, but they couldn't use their consciousness power.
The Queen Broodmother alone could not solve this problem. This was what the Dark Race's royal family had been researching.
Moye originally wanted to get some inspiration through the way of the Protoss, but he did not expect the Protoss to develop to such a powerful level. The key problem was Patroclus. This human was indeed powerful and terrifying. Once he succeeded in the transformation, he used a series of methods to win the approval of the Queen Mother.
At the same time, he had proven that the Immortals could be a special force for the Zergs, and that they could even be the commanding force of the Zergs.
The Dark Ones and the Immortals were not mass-produced troops. The evolution of the Zergs was not something that could be easily changed. However, the Zergs had discovered that the same Zerg army would be able to unleash much more power if they had an additional commander.
