Arcana spells were unpredictable. Not all Arcana spells had a large area of effect. Of course, Michaux was the only exception. Of course, only Michaux and Odin could do that.
In this world, other than Wang Tong, the leader of the Divine Master Sect was the only one who could do that.
The leader of the dark ones was surrounded by guards, so it would be difficult for Michaux to charge at him. However, it was not impossible for an arcanist to do so.
Michaux made a hand seal to suppress his power. He had to lock onto his target with his psychic power while also avoiding detection. Lie Jian, who was still in the air, was attacking the swarm relentlessly. This was very taxing, but it was the only way to distract the swarm and distract them. It was obvious that the swarm wanted to capture Lie Jian alive. Otherwise, it would be difficult for Lie Jian to hold on for too long.
Michaux had to be careful.
"Uncle Shan, please lend me a hand!" A blue ice ball appeared in Michaux's hand.
Lie Shan nodded and threw Michaux at Odin. Odin threw Michaux who was in mid-air. Odin activated his Levitation spell and charged at the dark ones like a cannonball.
Jie Zhe was busy trying to keep Lie Jian occupied. If one of them escaped, his head would be ripped off his body. Odin was already charging over, but he was still a few dozen meters away from Jie Zhe. Jie Zhe was shocked at first, but then he relaxed. Humans were really cunning. Luckily, he was prepared and kept a safe distance from them. He was worried that they would try something like this.
The Zergs had always been at a disadvantage in one-on-one combat against humans. Only a few dark ones were more powerful than humans, but Jie Zhe was not one of them. Besides, the Zergs had always won with numbers, so Jie Zhe didn't think there was anything wrong with that.
Michaux? Odin's momentum had dissipated. The dark ones would surround him in a second, but there was nothing between him and Jie Zhe.
The leader of the Divine Master Sect cracked a smile and unleashed an arcana spell.
Fury of the Ice Lotus!
This was the legendary arcana spell of the leader of the Divine Master Sect, a level twenty-three legendary arcana spell. Michaux was able to suppress the power of the spell until the moment it was unleashed.
A huge ice lotus appeared on the ground, freezing everything in a 10-meter radius around Jie Zhe.
The dark ones pounced on Michaux. Odin had unleashed such a powerful Arcana Technique in an instant. Odin didn't have time to retaliate, either. As soon as he cast his Arcane Spell, Lie Jian's body exploded with blue flames and shot toward Michaux like a meteor.
Any insectoid that got in his way was cut down with a single slash of his sword. Like a bolt of lightning, he used his body to block the dark ones' attack. Then, he pulled Michaux to his side and leaped into the air like a cannonball. Michaux was still in midair. Odin had already recovered from the initial two seconds. Bang bang bang bang …
Countless ice arrows were fired. Although they were not lethal, they were enough to stop the Zergs from chasing after them.
Boom …
Lie Jian and Michaux dove into the torches while the other soldiers fought valiantly against the onslaught of the torches. It was so satisfying!
Taking the head of the enemy's general from among the ten thousand soldiers.
The soldiers launched a counterattack, killing the insectoids while the arcanists continued to bombard them with spells.
Having lost their leader, the insectoids stopped their attacks. Instead, they surrounded the torches and waited for their next orders.
Michaux and Lie Jian looked at each other and smiled. It had been a dangerous battle. Lie Jian was up against an Einherjar. Unfortunately, the city behind them was not as well-prepared, and Michaux's Blue Flame was no ordinary flame. It was a special kind of attack.
Now that the leader of the insectoids had been killed, they would be able to take a breather before a new leader was formed. The insectoids attacked again, but this time, they were not as strong as the first.
Michaux was lucky. The soldiers around Jie Zhe were the main dark ones in San Antonio, and Michaux's Wrath of the Ice Lotus had killed them all.
The dark races weren't like the humans. They didn't need their leader to be at the front to raise their morale, and they had their own way of passing down orders. More importantly, they hadn't expected this outcome in the first place.
They had completely underestimated the leader of the Divine Master Sect.
Although a new dark one had taken over the command position, it was obvious that he was not as smart as Michaux. Lie Jian and Michaux had rested for a while, and the dark ones were already trying to stop them with all their might, fearing that the two of them would escape.
This relieved a lot of pressure on the soldiers.
If Michaux and Lie Jian decided to break out of the encirclement, there was a high chance that they would be able to escape. Of course, the soldiers that accompanied them would have to be sacrificed in order to escape.
With Michaux's personality, there was no way he would leave. If Michaux didn't leave, then Lie Jian wouldn't leave either. Therefore, the two of them were rather strange.
Lie Jian was aware of this, and that was why he chose to wait for Wang Tong.
Lie Jian was anxious as the Flaming Sword continued to reap the lives of the insectoids. He knew that Wang Tong was the leader of a group of highly mobile insectoids, and he would be able to see the opportunity before him.
Lie Jian did not want to die. He still had a lot of things to do. How could the Chosen One die in a place like this?
After another round of killing, the two of them returned to the Torch.
The new leader of the Zerg heaved a sigh of relief. He was only a Class-C dark one, and he barely had enough intelligence. The rest of the Zergs were all dead, but he was not flexible in his command. The original Zergs were slow to react to signals of this level, and the only thing he could do now was to prevent them from escaping. Otherwise, they would all be dead.
As for attacking, he didn't have any other ideas. Deep planning wasn't something he could carry out at his level. He just strictly carried out his orders, which was to not let these humans escape and wait for the Demon Palace's envoy.
Apart from the Warriors who were on guard, the people in the Torch Tower finally had some quiet time to eat. Some of the arcanists had already fallen asleep. They really couldn't move at all. If they didn't rest, they would collapse. The Warriors were still alive. They could endure the physical fatigue, but the arcanists were exhausted. If they didn't sleep, they would be in serious trouble.
Only some of the stronger ones, like the three medical officers, were still operating their techniques to maintain the strength of their spirit sea. However, the three beauties were also exhausted. They were determined to follow the Sect Leader's footsteps, to live and die together with him. For the disciples of the Celestial Master Sect, this was a kind of happiness, a kind of release, so they were fearless.
"Is Wang Tong here? It has been twenty hours, and the reinforcements should be on the way." Lie Shan said worriedly. As a member of the Lie family, he did not think that Wang Tong would be able to win. Although Wang Tong was a troublemaker, he did not know if he had the intelligence or the courage to do so.
In the eyes of Lie Shan and the others, Lie Jian was the new leader of the human race.
Li Shiming and Bolton couldn't compare to him at all. Only Zhang Jin, Ma Xiaoru, and Samantha were women. In the eyes of the Martians, they were inferior.
Wang Tong, who had been missing for five years, had suddenly reappeared. To be honest, many people had forgotten about him. Time would change everything.
"Of course!" Lie Jian said with determination. The more he thought about it, the clearer his thoughts became. He knew that Wang Tong would definitely rush over as fast as he could, so he had to hold his ground.
If the two forces worked together, they would be able to wipe out the entire Torch Fortress. More importantly, they would be able to boost the morale of the soldiers, and at the same time, they would be able to slap Mo Ye in the face.
Provoke!
Provoke the monsters into a frenzy, and the war would fall into the rhythm of the humans.
Lie Jian's confidence stemmed from the mass production of the GN Crystal Gun. It would definitely be a signal for mankind to retaliate.
"Is Wang Tong one of Wang Tong's Martian brothers?"
Lie Jian cracked a smile. He was surprised that he was still able to smile at a time like this.
What he didn't know was that this confident smile of his brought great comfort and relief to the soldiers' spirits.
A leader's calmness and confidence were crucial in times like this.
Indeed, Lie Jian was indeed very powerful!
Wang Tong sneezed when he heard Lie Jian's words. Recently, he had been holed up in his research lab like a madman, repeatedly testing every piece of data and improving upon it. Based on mankind's long history of using firearms, once the core problem was solved, it would be impossible to stop.
Wang Tong was tasked with this great task. The first mass-produced GN Crystal Gun was named Wang Tong, and the solution to the problem was named Wang Tong's Theory. Of course, it was a combination of Wang Tong and Wang Tong's surname.
The design of the GN Shock Gun had been completed, and the GN Crystal Cannons were in the process of being manufactured. A large group of scientists had formed a team and were working on a radiation revolution. In the near future, everyone would be modifying thermal weapons, especially hybrid weapons, which would be able to incorporate GN Force into energy weapons. Of course, this wasn't something that Wang Tong had come up with. Everyone had their own specialties, and once the core issues were solved, the scientists would be able to come up with new ideas, and mankind would be able to unleash its full potential.
The Eighth Technological Revolution had begun at a time of despair.
The dark ones continued to "send" their troops, and the sun was about to rise.
According to Lie Jian's estimation, Wang Tong should have arrived around this time if he had received the news that he was going to meet Wang Tong.
However, he was still nowhere to be seen. Although the Palace of Devils had yet to arrive, reinforcements from the neighboring cities had arrived. The dark ones were determined to capture the humans.
Lie Jian looked at the rising sun and felt a little disappointed. He wondered if he had overestimated Wang Tong.
