Chapter 538: The Zergss Infighting (2/2)
”Phf! I will make them pay, make no mistake about that.” Kun grunted as fire spurted out of his eyes. Failing to suppress his anger, Kun shot a wave of soul energy at a human servant, who collapsed to the ground without making a sound.
As Turbolix marveled at the savagery of the dark one, a messenger walked to him and whispered something. The messenger brought out a hologram projector and turned it on to display a clip that showed Wang Tong's face.
”Haha! He is alive! I have been looking for him everywhere, and I have finally found him!” Turbolix laughed.
Kun narrowed his eyes as he studied the face of the human whom Patroclus was so interested in.
”Have you located him yet?”
”Yes. He is with a war band called Battle Wolf. It's a small band, four to five hundred soldiers at the most. Oh, the leader of the band is Guan Dongyang. He was in the tournament as well. Wang Tong is his assistant.”
Turbolix guffawed, ”Haha! I wonder what our Lord would make of the news. The heir of the Blade Warrior now has to serve under a no account! Haha! Let's move… I need to find him and hand him over to our master.”
”Stop! That's the man the dark lord wants for himself.” Kun stood up and announced.
”Kun, that's none of my business. My goal here is to capture Wang Tong, and let me remind you to not stand in my way!” Turbolix watched Kun with contempt.
”You are on Mars, not on Patroclus' turf!” Kun rose to the comment as his wings trembled with anger.
”How dare you address our lord by his name!” Turbolix rounded his eyes as his GN force poured out. In a blink, he and his Immortal companions were ready for combat. Calling the divine lord by his name was an act of blasphemy. Aggression burned in Kun's eyes for a while, and then it dimmed down. Kun softened his face and said in an apologetic tone, ”Please forgive my insolence. We respect your lord as much as you do. However, I have received a direct order from the dark lord to capture this individual.” Kun had to swallow down his pride since he knew Patroclus was not the person he could mess with.
”Hehe… apologies accepted. I understand where you are coming from, but please consider that my situation is no easier than yours. How about this? Let's capture Wang Tong first, and then we will let our lords decide who should have the spoils.”
”Sounds like a plan. Let me report this development to the dark lord at this instant.”
'”No, no. Not now. ”
”Why not?”
”We haven't gotten him yet, have we? What's the point in letting our bosses' hopes high while we are not guaranteed a success yet? Let's report to our higher ups when we have the man.”
It took Kun a while to understand what Turbolix meant. Despite Turbolix's drastically different style in handling such a situation than a dark one would, Kun had seen sense in his words. He had disappointed the dark lord once already, so he knew that in order to stay alive, he needed to be careful. Being a dark one had given him many pleasures that a Zerg would not have the capacity to appreciate; they enjoyed these pleasures so much that they had started to fear the lack of them.
”Dispatch all of our scouts and locate Battle Wolf! I want to lead the attack myself.”
”Hehe… That's a smart move, Kun. Let me help you too… We cannot fail!”Turbolix announced.
…
Somewhere outside the city wall, Wang Tong emerged out of a shadow. He had purposely let the surveillance drone capture his face in order to lure Turbolix out of the city. Soon, he wagered, the former heir of the Wind-Cloud Kick was going to rise to his bait.
