Chapter 526: Crystal Gun

The news about the attack quickly got into the ears of the young master. Numerous skirmishes were happening every day, but none had the profound impact as the one that occurred in Jade City.

The combined strength of Xiao Yuyu and Vorenus could barely fend off the dark one's attack alone, much less when the dark one was aided by the Scarab Zerg. Over the five years, the Zergs had surprised humans with their power many times, and therefore, Xiao Yuyu knew that the humans could not lower their guard. The cunning Zergs would not hesitate to deliver the deadliest blow when they noticed a hint of relaxation in humans. Even when the humans were constantly on high alert, they were still struggling with the power of the Zergs.

After the Sect had received the footage of the battle scene, they broadcasted it across Mars. The appearance of another Einherjar would boost the Martians' confidence, even though no one knew who this Einherjar was.

Life in Jade City had returned to normal in just one day. Wang Tong and Ye Zi also started to iron out the last few wrinkles in their first step in working with the Sect.

Syracuse had also got wind of the collaboration between Battle Wolf and the Sect. This development lent him confidence in the success of the upcoming auction.

Despite the reputation of Guan Dongyang and the expertise of Xiao Yuyu, the merchant's pragmatism had spurred Syracuse to demand Wang Tong to demonstrate the usage of the two crystals during the auction.

Although Wang Tong thought it was a waste to use two crystals just for the show, he accepted the demand.

Syracuse informed all of his business contacts about the auction, which not only came from within the city, but also from the outside. Many attendees who were located too far away from the Jade city would join the auction via video conferencing.

Since the skynet satellite system had been destroyed by the Zergs, all communications were made possible with landlines. Communication was of paramount importance to the resistance groups. Not only did they need it to stay connected with each other, but the humans also relied on it to get a sense of unity and solace.

Due to the high profile attendees, Sanders had called off all the unsavory auction items, such as slaves and stolen goods.

Xiao Yuyu's mood lightened up significantly after the incident. The carcasses of the dark one and the Scarab were being moved to the Sect's lab for experiments. The biggest surprise that came to Xiao Yuyu was the change in Sander's attitude. It had occurred to her that Sanders had picked up his slack and started to work on preparing for the war. In a couple of days, he had issued a dozen edicts that aimed to strengthen its military capacity. Although the Divine Mastery sect didn't send in a single soldier, as the leader of Mars, it had played an important role in uniting the different factions under the same banner.

When Wang Tong and his friends arrived at the auction house again, they reckoned that the ambiance inside had changed significantly.

”Wang Tong, chief Medic has agreed to our terms. ”

”Hehe, good job!” Wang Tong nodded pleasantly.

”That's it? No reward?” Ye Zi asked.
