Chapter 571: Old Memories And New Life (2/2)

The strange phenomenon that occurred around the tower of the Divine Master had quickly become a viral sensation on the skynet. Everyone believed that this was a message from the god, foretelling their salvation.

During the times as dark and savage as this, the slightest sliver of hope could mean waking up the next day with a smile or eating a bullet in the dark, cold night.

The ordinary citizen could trust their future based on superstitious beliefs, but Wang Tong and Michaux couldn't. Nonetheless, ever since the incident, the population on Mars regarded the sect with even more respect and deference.

After Wang Tong returned to Michaux, the latter didn't ask a thing about what had happened in the tower.

”Are you here to take Xiao Yuyu away from me?” Michaux Odin asked.

”Indeed, she will play a key role in the operation. I hope you understand.” Wang Tong admitted right away.

”No problem at all. You can take all of the four chief medics if you so wish.” Michaux said. He knew what Wang Tong's mission could change the situation on Mars once and for all.

Wang Tong shook his head. ”No need. I only need Xiao Yuyu and ten other regular field medics. Our advantage is not in numbers, but in teamwork. Of course, I will fully disclose the risk with them. They don't have to go if they don't want to.”

Michaux nodded. All this while, he admired Wang Tong for his ability to put his words into actions. Lie Jian had thought of the same plan before, but he lacked the courage to take the leap of faith as Wang Tong would.

When Xiao Yuyu was told to go to Michaux's office, her heart skipped a beat. She was right: Wang Tong came for her! But, would Michaux let her go?

Everyone knew that Wang Tong and the young master were no more than acquaintances, and Michaux's real ally was Lie Jian. However, Michaux's recent behavior seemed to suggest otherwise.

”Greetings, young master!”

”Ah, you are finally here. I think you should already know why you are here. Anyway, I will let you talk to Wang Tong, and you can make your own decision.”

”Yes.”

”Susu, come with me.”

”No. I want to stay.” Susu straightened her back and pouted. She firmly believed that Wang Tong was a despicable man, and that she absolutely needed to be there to protect Xiao Yuyu.

”Susu, I won't have this nonsense. Come out at this instant!” Michaux hardened his face and refuted. Seeing her brother was getting riled up, Susu lowered her head and left the room reluctantly.

”I do this to protect you, Susu,” Michaux said and heaved a sigh of resignation. He knew that if Susu heard Wang Tong's plan, no one would be able to prevent her from joining him. She was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. However tough she thought she was, she wouldn't last long in the harsh reality.

Plus, Michaux was considering a daring operation as well. If anything happened to him, the sect would need a leader.

”Nice to see you, everyone.”

”Nice to see you again, captain.”

Wang Tong cracked a smile and said, ”I need your assistance.”

”Just tell us what we have to do. We will not let you down.” Xiao Ling announced. Wang Tong told the girls about his plan and reminded them about the danger involved.

”So that is all. We might not be able to return home ever again. I know I am asking a lot from you, so I understand if you wouldn't feel like you are ready for this yet. Don't feel obligated.”

”Wang Tong, from the day I joined the sect, I was ready to die for people of the Mars. I will join you! ” Xiao Yuyu said firmly.

”Me too!”
