Chapter 514: The Jade City (2/2)
Most mastery casters on Mars were trained at the Divine Mastery Sect, and therefore, Wang Tong had to do some head hunting under the Divine Master's nose.
”Ye Zi, who is in charge of Jade City?”
”It will be one of the chief priests. I am not sure who it is. Don't push them too hard to join you; it won't work.” Ye Zi remarked.
Wang Tong cracked a smile and then said, ”I am not there to rob them. It would only be a win-win situation for everyone should they decide to join us.”
Ye Zi heaved a sigh, ”I know it will be a good thing if you can enlist some talent. But, I need to warn you: not everyone in the Sect is a benevolent saint. Be careful!”
”Doesn't Michaux discipline his followers? He is the leader of the sect after all.”
”He does, but he can only do it to a certain degree. He will have to rely on his men when the Zergs are at the door.” Ye Zi lamented.
Wang Tong was not surprised at all. Since the Divine Mastery Sect was forced to face the war, they also had to face real-world problems.
Wang Tong didn't keep on prying Ye Zi, since he knew that she was hesitant to criticize the Sect.
The four traveled light and fast. Although they had encountered a few Zerg scouting parties that roamed everywhere on Mars, these low-level Zergs were quickly dealt with by Tan Bu and Duo Lun.
During one encounter, Tan Bu and Duo Lun went ahead of the other two to finish off the Zergs, and when they returned, they brought someone else with them.
”Captain, we saved him. What should we do with him?” Duo Lun asked.
Ye Zi walked to the stranger and examined his vitals. ”He is in a coma. Looks like he is with a group.” Ye Zi remarked on seeing the uniform the stranger was wearing.
Ye Zi brought some water to the stranger's lips, and soon, life returned to the pale face. The pair of alerted eyes darted left and right, and he didn't lower his guard until he found out that he was with four humans.
”Who are you guys?”
”Samaritans.”
The stranger patted himself down, making sure he still had four limbs.
”We have tended to your wounds; you should be fine now.” Ye Zi said.
”Are you a field medic?” The man in the purple uniform asked.
”Yes.”
”You have saved me?”
Seeing Lun Duo nodded, and only then did the stranger exhale and say, ”Thank you.”
”No worries! We are all humans. Do you want to accompany us or will you be on your own way?” Lun Duo asked.
The stranger's face was eerily placid, making his appreciation seem less sincere than it should be. His unblinking eyes had been glued to Ye Zi ever since he woke up.
