Translator: OneshotwonderEditor: Hitesh_

While the new and old soldiers trained together, trying to further their teamwork, Wang Tong had been busy poking around Maersa City. He knew that in order for Battle Wolf to grow, they would have to take over the city.

After a few days, Wang Tong found something suspicious in the city: there were immortals in the city, living with the dark ones. Wang Tong knew the suspect was an immortal because he knew him: it was Turbolix.

This discovery shocked Wang Tong; it was the first time it had occurred to him that not all humans were willing to stick their necks out for the survival of the human race.

The defense of the city was impeccable, giving the invading forces no chance of breaching the city wall. Wang Tong conceded that his only option was to lure the enemy out as he had suspected. But how? After some days of observation, Wang Tong noticed that Turbolix and his clandestine companions moved in and out of the city as if they were searching for something or someone.

Wang Tong laid on his back on a large flat rock while waiting for Charcoal to gather information.

”Master, I am back.”

Wang Tong pushed himself up and asked, ”How was it?”

”I have listened to some conversations in the city, and I think Turbolix is looking for you. Or, at least he is trying to confirm your existence.”

”Hehe… That's good… very good! I think he was sent by Patroclus.”

”What should we do master?”

”Let's give them what they want.” Wang Tong decided to put the newly trained warriors of Battle Wolf to use and deal a blow to Maersa City. Meanwhile, the attack would serve as a loud and clear message to Patroclus.

In the weeks that followed, the alliance waged a few coordinated surprise attacks on the Zergs and achieved sizable victories. This development had inspired all the other smaller factions to join the alliance's cause.

The taste of victory had elated the Battle Wolf warriors. After the training, these warriors had grown their power by leaps and bounds, and therefore, killing Zergs had suddenly become an easy task.

Lie Xuan had witnessed the change in Battle Wolf first hand. Although she knew that Guan Dongyang would never serve his family, she was madly in love with the Fire Lord, and she would never leave him.

…

Despite their victories, the resistance wasn't too optimistic about the future. They had caught the Zergs off guard, and without the element of surprise, they could be easily swarmed by their huge number.

With their guard up, the factions stayed tuned with each other over the Skynet. As soon as one faction was attacked, they would radio the entire region for reinforcements. This way, the factions were no longer fighting on their own.

Meanwhile, the atmosphere inside Maersa City was intense.

Turbolix held Kun's accusatory gaze. He knew thatKun, the Maersa City Lord, had been reprimanded by the dark lord for his activities in the city. The struggle between the dark lord and Patroclus was no longer a secret. Kun was troubled by not only the clandestine activities of Patroclus' agents, but also the recent surge in the number and audacity of the human resistance forces' attacks.

”My lord, how can you let these weaklings step on your toe? Might as well let our divine lord manage the city for you... Haha. ” Turbolix jested.
