Chapter 605

The news raised the dark lord's hackles . The event at Ontario forced him to make some compromises . He sent a final warning to the northern warden; the latter wouldn't get another chance if he failed again . If he failed to capture w.a.n.g Tong before he entered the central core area of the Zerg territory, Xie Su should consider himself dead .

The Zergs around Ontario immediately started their search, combing the area in thousands . w.a.n.g Tong was already very near the heartland of the Zerg territory; two cities away at most .

Xie Su had just arrived at the frontlines, but after receiving the dark lord's stern letter, he turned around and stormed back . The war was not nearly as crucial to the northern warden as his own life . Although his absence at the frontline meant the sub-par performance of the northern front would continue, Xie Su was convinced that he had made the right decision for himself .

Since the warden himself had returned to see to w.a.n.g Tong's capture, every city lord worked round the clock to find w.a.n.g Tong .  

"Mr . Harmon, I am sure you have heard about dark lord's dissatisfaction related to this . . . mess . I hope you can offer me a helping hand! I won't let you do it for free, of course!" 

His life was at stake, so Xie Su had no time to don the warden's mask . His face now was one that desperately needed help .  

Harmon had a calmness cast in his eyes . From a safe distance, he had been watching the development unfold and observing the dark ones' reaction as the matter unfolded . He reckoned that w.a.n.g Tong had helped him to expose all the weakness in the dark ones . They might have looked haughty and invincible when they had the upper hand, but they fell apart quickly before challenges . Patroclus was right; no race was able to suddenly evolve into perfection without pa.s.sing the test of time . What the Zergs lacked the most right then was not only intelligence, but also wisdom .

Evolution didn't bestow wisdom to the humans; mistakes did, many mistakes . The wisdom had helped human ferry across troubled waters . Zergs had thought that as long as they could eliminate the harmful desires in humans, s.e.x, drink, etc . , they would be fine . Little did they know that desires came with fifty shades and more . Each facet of the desire was capable of bringing destruction to the entire race . Greed, for example, if left unchecked, would tear the Zerg community apart from the inside very quickly .

Thus it was that Patroclus had never taken the dark ones too seriously, and every immortal divine general knew it . Some divine generals suspected that the mother supreme was the only reason Moye was still alive . In the eyes of mother supreme, all Zergs, Immortals, and dark ones were her children, and deserved chances to prove themselves .

It wasn't until Harmon saw the desperation in Xie Su's eyes that he fully understood why Patroclus never considered Moye a worthy opponent .

The immortals, on the other hand, were born as humans first, and therefore possessed the human wisdom that the dark ones lacked . Although the sudden surge of power would disturb some of their members' inner peace, those members were quickly dealt with and expelled from the group . Patroclus never said being an immortal meant one had reached perfection; it was just a prerequisite . An immortal would only become a perfect being after years of compet.i.tion with each other .

One method for the immortals to purify themselves was through war . The same went for Patroclus . He was already a perfect being in the universe, but he needed more; he wanted to be a G.o.d, and therefore, he needed a G.o.d-like opponent .

If Moye were not Patroclus's opponent, then it had to be w.a.n.g Tong . Harmon was the first person to have realized this .  

"General Xie Su, I know we have lost some new Zergs during w.a.n.g Tong's raid at the lab, but what kind of weapon are we talking about? I wager it had a great deal to do with their sudden surge in power . I need to know what we are up against first . " Harmon thought about it and then said .

"Dynamo Hive was one of the highest rank hives on Mars . It was over three centuries old, and had always been in charge of the gene program . When w.a.n.g Tong attacked, they were very close to completing a research program that sought to breed a new Zerg that could be used as the mount for the dark lord . I don't have lots of data on these Zergs, but I have heard that they were capable of disrupting the humans' soul energy . Meanwhile, they could replenish their vigor by devouring their opponents . " Xie Su announced sullenly . He had no jurisdiction over this lab, but unfortunately, this hot mess happened to be inside his territory .

Harmon furrowed his bows and appeared troubled . w.a.n.g Tong's reckless move of crossing the mountain came as a surprise to him . He had learned about Mount Dynamo and its valley of death . No one with a shred of sanity would dare cross the mountain . The fragile human body could not withstand the elements, and as a former human himself, Harmon knew that very well .

However, w.a.n.g Tong and his men had somehow miraculously made it through the mountain . Not only that, but they had also managed to steal the Zerg's research and destroy the hive .

The thought of what w.a.n.g Tong was capable of made Harmon skin's p.r.i.c.kle for the first time since he became an immortal . He conceded that he had been underestimating w.a.n.g Tong all this while . He should no longer treat him as one of his students, but an enemy who was far serious a threat than even death himself .

"Is there any weakness in these new breeds? If we can do away with these beasts first, w.a.n.g Tong will quickly lose his edge . "

"Is there any weakness in these new breeds? If we can do away with these beasts first, w.a.n.g Tong will quickly lose his edge . "

"Well said, Mr . Harmon! Once w.a.n.g Tong enters the heartland, I will be in grave danger . Therefore, I have to find him before that happens . I will crush him with my own fist then!" Xie Su said with a contemptuous tone . He doubted that w.a.n.g Tong could stand a chance before him .

However, Xie Su's confidence would not answer his question at hand: where was w.a.n.g Tong? Xie Su would have to find out his whereabouts before he could make it to the heartland . Moye was not well known for giving second chances .

Sensing the urgency of the matter, Harmon finally agreed to help the distressed warden . "Don't worry! I won't let w.a.n.g Tong slip under our radar!"

"Thank you, Mr . Harmon . I am grateful for our mutual understanding . Despite your minor slip up a few weeks ago, I still have faith in you . You can help me find out where w.a.n.g Tong is and leave the rest to me . " Xie Su's slit eyes gave a hard glint as he spoke .  

"You have my words, warden . If I fail to find w.a.n.g Tong, I will plead guilty in front of Moye myself . " Harmon said thinly, unfazed by the threat .

Xie Su was so committed to catching w.a.n.g Tong that he had stopped the attack at the frontline altogether . He was smart enough to realize that w.a.n.g Tong was Moye's real target, and not the red planet .

He had spared every soldier he had to spread them across the landscape like a carpet to search for the human devil . Meanwhile, Harmon and his immortals were stationed at each city and choke points, determined to capture w.a.n.g Tong . 'Fool him once, shame on w.a.n.g Tong; fool him twice, shame on him . ' As a matter of fact, Harmon wagered that if he miscalculated one more time, he would be looked down upon by other immortal divine generals as well .

The change in the Zergs' attack at the frontline was palpable . Zambrotta seized the opportunity and pushed the Zergs back a few hundred miles .

However, the Zergs didn't seem to mind the setback as they remained focused on w.a.n.g Tong .

Despite the advancement humans had made at the northern front, the overall progress of the war was very slow . Nonetheless, the breakthrough at the northern front had allowed the human forces a brief respite .

w.a.n.g Tong didn't plan to leave the Zerg territory . The situation was slowly truing into his favor . Not only was Deep Blue was able to devour his enemy's flesh, but also their mind . Through Deep Blue's mind-reading ability, w.a.n.g Tong had learned the plan of Xie Su . Knowing that Xie Su had halted the frontline attack altogether, everyone was pleased that their plan had worked .

Having fought at the frontline, Xie Libie was particularly grateful for this news . He knew that his decision of following w.a.n.g Tong had been right .  

"Harmon has been the vice princ.i.p.al of Capth . I cannot believe that people as prestigious as him would betray humans . "

After chatting with her teammates, Xiao Yuyu agreed that Mars had it much easier than the other planets . Despite Moye's brutality, they didn't have to deal with betrayals . No wonder the morale of the Earth united front was so low, as they had to fight their loved ones who had turned into monsters .
