624 How To Heal A Broken Hear (2/2)
Following the lead of the War God and Lie Jintian, more and more powerful human warriors came out of their hiding and fought back. After a while, the EB units' hold on the legendary human warriors was completely gone.
The humans started to take the initiative in the war, and more and more victories turned out each day.
Propaganda about the War God and his knights spread to every Martian city. They were praised for their ferociousness before the enemies and benevolence to the people. They fought not for themselves, but for the honor of the War God and the people of Mars.
As the development unfolded around Wang Tung, his research deepened. He was no longer a one-person army; instead, he had near unlimited resources and supervised over a hundred smartest minds on Mars.
His latest research focused on optimization of the GN energy ratio in a Hybrid gun. His experiments had revealed that the conventional heat-based weapons had a disadvantage in penetrating the Zergs' chitin shell, which could be fixed by mixing a small amount of GN energy. In order to save the precious GN crystals, Wang Tung was determined to find out the optimal ratio between the conventional energy and the GN energy to achieve the best results.
That being said, the GN guns remained ineffective in dealing with heavy Zergs.
Wang Tung was a scientist, but he also knew what the human soldiers needed to win the war. What they needed was not the state-of-the-art weapons, but something that was cheap to make and easy to use; quantity over quality, just like how the Zergs did it.
This research breakthrough finally leveled the ground for the human warriors, and for the first time in five years, the humans could stand a chance in a battle against the Zergs.
The Kaedeian Queen's Guard was equipped with a stealth airborne propulsion unit. They allowed the fearsome warriors to sneak up on their enemies unnoticed.
As members of the elite units, these guards had high standards; however, they were still shocked by the power and discipline of Battle Wolf.
Their small numbers were easily made up for with their superior strength and might.
Once the threat to the humans' home base was eliminated, the resistance's war machine kicked into overdrive, extending its influence beyond the defense lines. Kaedeians, Zambrotta, and Lie Jintian had quickly recaptured the land they had lost to the Zergs and restored the communication between each city.
The time for the final counterattack was about to come.
Meanwhile, Wang Tong and his men were scouting outside Pulorita City. Many reports had suggested that Pulorita city was one the very few production bases for creating dark ones.
If that were true, this city was almost as significant as the dark castle. The tide had already turned, and therefore, Wang Tong was in no hurry to attack the dark castle. He decided to scout around for other targets, and that was when he found Pulorita.
The dark lord still made no move against Wang Tong; perhaps he was still occupied by the setbacks at the frontline. It was not just the dark lord; the entire Zerg territory seemed empty as all the Zergs were sent to reinforce the front lines. However important it was to capture Wang Tong, Moye conceded that he needed first to contain the humans' comeback before it was all too late.
Wang Tong simply couldn't sit around and pass such a golden opportunity to piss off his host. And as he looked for the next target, he found Pulorita.
The Zergs ought to have a strong defense in a city as important as Pulorita; however, it should pose no difficulties for Battle Wolf. By then, the only target that was dangerous for Battle Wolf was the dark castle.
Life had taught Wang Tong many lessons, and he knew that being overconfident was also a premonition for failure. So, he reminded himself to calculate his every step carefully despite the advantage he held.
”This is the map of the area. Our scouts have confirmed all the landmarks. ” Heidi said as he pointed at a map on the table. ”Here, here, and there, those are the three locations where the queen is most likely to be hiding.”
