”Of course! Zergs killed my entire family, the only purpose in my life is to kill Zergs! Please Wang Tong, can you teach me your tactics so I can avenge my family?” Tan Bu suddenly pleaded with watery eyes. Tragedies like what happened to his family were occurring every day. Duo Lun heard a similar case as his and felt a jab at his heart. The foolish mask he wore in the war was his protection, not from the pain, but from becoming numb and indifferent to what was happening.

”Furface, we both know that you are very strong, and we had studied your tactics. From now on, you will be our Shifu, and we will follow you wherever you go. My story is similar to Tan Bu's. So, please help us to become stronger, such that we can kill as many Zergs as possible.” Duo Lun said with his fist clenched tightly. A Zerg ate his sister right in front of him. The terrifying scene of his sister's legs dangling in the Zerg's mouth stunned Duo Lun and almost drove him to the verge of insanity. It was Guan Dongyang who had saved him from being the next victim, but he couldn't save him from the nightmare that haunted him every night.

Wang Tong had seen through Tan Bu's facade a long time ago. He understood the hatred toward Zergs that fueled both of these two young soldiers, and therefore, he was willing to pass his tactics to them. Wang Tong knew that he could not save the world by himself. Without everyone taking up arms and fighting for themselves, even General Li Feng couldn't have saved humanity.

Wang Tong nodded and then said, ”There is no need to rush to a decision. In order to become a super METAL fighter, you will need to build a solid foundation first. You lacked strength and endurance before I taught you the tactics, and therefore, with the new tactics, it would be very easy to overspend your energy. You should know how dangerous that is on the battlefield. If you would like to change that, then you will need to follow my instructions, and be ready for hellish training.”

After hearing Wang Tong's proposal, Duo Lun and Tan Bu decided to think about their options for a while. Wang Tong agreed, as it was important to think things through before taking any actions. That was the case for the two young warriors, as well as for Wang Tong.

Wang Tong left the two to their pondering and walked to a quiet clearing in the woods to sit down. The silence around him was familiar, if not cozy. Maybe he was meant to be alone forever, Wang Tong thought.

”What are you doing out here?” Ye Zi's musical voice rang behind Wang Tong.

”You are in a good mood.” Wang Tong turned and cracked a smile at her.

”You too. I wonder how you could remain so amiable every day while the world is falling apart.”

”Oh?” Wang tong rubbed his face. He had surprised that Ye Zi was able to see his expression under this thick curtain of fur.

”What do you think about the union between our captain and Xie Xuan? I wish they could be together.”

”Oh? That means you already have someone else in mind?” Wang Tong asked abruptly.

Ye Zi blushed. ”Don't veer off topic; we are talking about our captain!”

If Ye Zi hadn't known Wang Tong for a while, she might have taken his comment as flirting. However, she knew that Wang Tong was not interested in her, and neither was she.

”It's the Martian's custom to speak their mind, isn't it? You are not Martian enough, haha!”

”Of course, I am, I am a Martian through and through! Yes, I do like another man!” Ye Zi's face crinkled.
