"We are the Battle Wolf, and our words worth more than gold."
Wang Tong disappeared before his last words fell into Marcos' ears. Marcos turned, only to see that the former was already gone. He heaved a sigh of resignation.
After the Thunder Fire had retreated back to their camp, Ross let go of the Mastery casters as promised.
"How are you feeling, Dongyang?" Wang Tong asked with a smile.
"Balls, I was so terrified! Does it always have to be so risky?" Guan Dongyang grinned.
Wang Tong shrugged. "That was the best option I could think of. I like your new spell by the way. Very cool."
"Hehe, it's all thanks to you! It wasn't until you told me about the blending of different elements that I realized how much I still needed to learn."
"Unlike a METAL warrior, you don't need to reach the legendary level to get exposed to the Divine Way. Your improvement has just begun, and there will be even more surprises awaiting you in the future."
"Haha! I am so lucky to have you around me!" Guan Dongyang laughed out loud. The exertion quickly reminded him that he was still injured. Guan Dongyang then cupped his wound and lamented, "I wish I could recover soon."
"Don't you worry! We have just made so much money that you can sit on you're a*s for a while and do nothing."
"Balls! All you asked for were some broken METAL suits and piles of garbage."
Wang Tong winked at Guan Dongyang and then said: "You forgot you had a super mechanic."
Guan Dongyang was shocked. "You mean you can fix all that junk? "
"Of course! Otherwise, why would I ask for them?"
After the warriors of the Battle Wolf had cleaned up the battlefield, they appeared in front of Guan Dongyang's room. The victory had given them confidence as they stood with heads high.
"Boss, captain, what should we do next?" Ross asked.
"I need to recuperate. Wang Tong will be in charge." Guan Dongyang said without hesitation. Finally, he could be as far away from the paperwork as possible.
"Ross, pack up the equipment they had left and ship them to my shop."
"Roger that!" Ross left the room with a few other METAL warriors in tow. None of them asked about Wang Tong's reason for collecting all that junk as they fully trusted Wang Tong's decisions.
"Ouch! Be gentle, Ye Zi. It hurts!"
"Hang in there, boss. The damage was not small. My level is too low to clean it without pain. Just a little bit longer, and it will be over soon."
"But... but... it really hurts!" Guan Dongyang pleaded, his eyes holding tears.
"Hehe… Dongyang, don't act like a kid. You are the boss, remember?" Wang Tong jested.
"Boss my a*s! Why don't you try it?"
"Suh... Lie Xuan is coming."
"Ye Zi, don't mind me. This is nothing, just a scratch." Guan Dongyang suddenly changed into a different person.
Ye Zi suppressed a snicker and then continued to clean the wound for him.
"What a victory! I have led the House Lie into many battles, but I have never seen such a miraculous victory." Lie Xuan announced, "Dongyang, I think the news about this battle is going to spread across Mars very quickly."
"I won't disappoint you, babes."
The intimate love name made Lie Xuan blush, as she cleared her throat and said lightly, "Take care." Then, she hurried out of the room.
"Ye Zi, Wang Tong, have you ever seen her blush before? Haha!" Guan Dongyang said with a broad smile.
Lie Xuan liked a strong man. Despite Guan Dongyang's renowned reputation, she always found it hard to make the connection between the thin mastery caster and the muscular prince charming of her dreams. However, when Guan Dongyang showed his strength and defeated Nihlathak, he had captured her heart almost instantly.
"You lucky b*stard!" Wang Tong said with a smile. Love could always make the world a nice place, even during a war.
Seeing Guan Dongyang's face blooming like a flower, Ye Zi shook her head and conceded that his IQ was as high as a six-year-old when he was in love.
Thunder Fire's defeat had shocked the entire Maersa district. After the war, everyone thought of Guan Dongyang very differently than before.
Guan Dongyang, the Lord of Fire, had defeated a METAL warrior one level higher than him. The unprecedented achievement had brought his reputation to a new height.
Before the victory, he was considered quiet, if not irrelevant, among the top warriors of the Mars. It was true that he had led his war band and killed thousands of Zergs, but so what? Zergs were easy to kill, but defeating a level twenty METAL warrior as a Mastery caster was nothing close to easy.
People were impressed by not only Guan Dongyang's personal strength, but also his ability to manage the battlefield, leveraging the element of surprise, precise timing of mobilization, and converting the enemies' oversight into his advantages.
It didn't take long before people started to suspect that there was another powerful warrior hidden within the ranks of Battle Wolf.
Although the battle changed nothing in the overall political struggle on Mars, it had completely changed the landscape of power in the Maersa district. The cards on the table had been reshuffled; while the former leader was now ruing out of cards to play, the previously insignificant player was on a winning streak.
However, it was still too earlier to say who the eventual winner of the game would be. After a few victories, Guan Dongyang had gathered a handful of good cards; he just needed to know who to play them on the table.
"Hans, what do you think of it?" The news about Guan Dongyang's victory had caught Aamir by surprise.
"I am not surprised by Guan Dongyang's victory over Nihlathak, but I wonder who had unleashed the four golden discs that had decimated the heavy METAL?"
"Is that a weapon or a mastery?" Aamir asked curiously.
"I have no idea. But, I wager it's something along the line of mastery and GN force." Hans was puzzled by the nature of the golden discs as well.
"Where do you think they got it from?"
"No clue. When I first saw it, I thought it was made out of GN force. But, a normal GN force attack would wane after each hit, yet these discs didn't. They just kept going; therefore, I suspect that these discs could replenish energy by absorbing natural forces, like a mastery spell."
"You know that is impossible! Do you think someone inside the Battle Wolf had done the impossible?"
"I don't know."
"Well, looks like we need to wait until things are clear. He also has powerful friends apparently." Aamir said slowly.
