The battlefield was cleared in just a few minutes, and the Zerg corpses were piled into mountains.
This was one of the most significant victories human resistance had achieved within the Maersa district.
The soldiers quickly left the battlefield; they had neither the manpower nor the ammunition to afford another confrontation with the Zerg reinforcements.
When the warriors returned to the camp, they were greeted by waves of cheers and shouts. However, except for a few exchanges of courtesy, the warriors didn't speak anymore as weariness had driven them to plunge into their beds. No one had realized how tired they were while they were on the battlefield. But, as soon as they reached safety, being overspent and overexerted, sleepiness came over them like a dull hammer.
There were supposed to be a celebration, but since everyone had quickly fallen asleep, the celebration was scheduled for a later time.
Duo Lun had been feeling tired as soon as the battle was over, but while on his way home, as he pondered over his new tactics and how effective they were. Thinking about that, a newfound exhilaration came over him. As soon as Duo Lun reached the camp, he passed his bedroom and went straight to Wang Tong.
He eventually found Wang Tong around a corner in the storage room. "Wang Tong, you could never imagine what a victory it was!"
Wang Tong dropped the piece of METAL in his hand and smiled, "Oh? How were your new tactics?"
"Too freaking awesome! Without it, I might have already been dead out there. What is the name of the tactics anyways? It's too good to be true!"
"It doesn't have a name. Why don't you show me the tactics again and let me see if you have improved from last time." Wang Tong was also curious as to the effect of the double GN circulation.
"No name? Did you come up with the Tactics yourself?" Duo Lun asked.
"Haha… Yes, and that is why I will need to make sure that it doesn't have any side effects."
"Balls! So, you took me as a lab rat? Haha! Well, I was going to thank you for the tactics, but I think I will save my goodwill for later. By the way, if you have any other experiments, make sure you do them on me. Haha!" Duo Lun laughed lightheartedly. He was not convinced that Wang Tong had come up with the tactics all by himself, since he was aware of the difficulty involved in creating just normal tactics, much less such a unique one that utilized two GN circulations.
Wang Tong sensed Duo Lun 's doubt, but he didn't rise to the defense. He had created these tactics based on years of experience and his tactics, hoping to spread it across the human world. He reckoned that humanity's survival relied on unity, and to turn the situation around, he needed to improve the average ability of all human fighters.
Looking back at humans' history, Zergs were not the only challenge that the race had faced, but it was the greatest one. As an enlightened demigod, Li Feng was able to see thing clearer. Not only was he hopeful that humans could come out as the victor in this struggle, but the torment and bloodshed would also teach humans a few valuable lessons, and thus breathe a new life into the stagnate race. However, Li Feng's optimism was based on the presumption that humans would finally learn to stand up for themselves, instead of relying on the blessing of the gods.
As the heir of the Blade Warrior, Wang Tong was aware of his predecessor's vision, and was determined to carry out his will.
The thought of spreading the sixteen node version of the Tactics of the Blade had occurred to Wang Tong more than once. But he was forced to drop the idea every time because the major factions already had their tactics. Therefore, Wang Tong decided to create new tactics that were compatible with almost all other tactics in the world. Duo Lun was the first tester; Wang Tong had chosen him because he was his close friend around the camp, and therefore, it was easier for him to monitor his progression.
Duo Lun finished another round of the Tactics under Wang Tong's examining eyes. Wang Tong was pleased to see that the double GN circulation functioning well, but he conceded that he needed to continue monitoring Duo Lun's condition, particularity when he was in an intense battle. Only when Duo Lun's sea of consciousness was stable under reduced circumstances would Wang Tong acknowledge the success of the new tactics.
"I feel like the tactics are also helping with my recovery. I don't feel as tired as I thought I would." After a round of GN circulation, Lun Dun felt his body was rejuvenated, and his soul energy was recharged to full capacity.
Wang Tong nodded and then said, "Good job! All signs are normal. You are pretty talented, you know?"
"Furface, are you a crazy evil genius?"
"Crazy evil genius?"
"Bunch of lunatics. They capture humans and lock them up in their dungeons in the name of science. They experiment all kinds of outrageous tactics on those poor victims. No one ever survives their experiments." Duo Lun plastered on a knotted face, but his voice had betrayed the lightheartedness. He knew Wang Tong was not one of them.
"Don't worry, you won't die from the tactics. I was thinking of teaching them to everyone around the camp." Wang Tong announced.
Duo Lun was shocked by Wang Tong's words. "You are saying that you are willing to share them with everyone?"
Wang Tong nodded.
Duo Lun found it hard to believe that when Wang Tong could have held onto his secret tactics and make a fortune out of it, he would willingly share the tactics with the rest of the world.
"Hehe, don't be so stingy! I need to do my part for the war. Let's start teaching the tactics to the warriors of Battle Wolf and see how it fares."
"Balls! If you were even slightly better looking than you are, I might as well take you as the savior sent by God! If everyone in Battle Wolf knew the tactics, we would take the City of Maersa in no time. OK... Let's start with Tan Bu."
"Sounds good!"
"Haha, awesome, I will go fetch him right away." Duo Lun and Tan Bu were BFFs, and therefore, Duo Lun wanted Tan Bu to be the first person to share the power with.
Watching as Duo Lun disappeared behind the door, a sense of sorrow came over Wang Tong. Once upon a time, he, too, had friends that he would love to share things with. But, because of his incompetence, he was not able to save their lives.
After a time, Duo Lun dragged Tan Bu to the storage room. Tan Bu's sleepy eyes were half closed.
"Duo Lun, you are such an a*s. It better be important! "
Duo Lun ignored Tan Bu's complaints and turned to Wang Tong as he asked. "Here he is, Furface. Do you think he is up to the scratch?"
Wang Tong quickly scanned Tan Bu's body with his soul energy and then nodded.
"Balls! What are you two up to? Hey, you! Why are you ogling at me? Stop checking me out. I am not interested in men."
Wang Tong suppressed a snicker and waved his hand, summoning an unseen force to lift Tan Bu up into mid-air.
"What? What are you doing? I said I am not interested! NOT interested!" Tan Bu shouted and waggled his arms helplessly in the air.
"Shut up! Do as Master Furface say. Don't you want to know why my power had been increased so drastically? It is all thanks to master Furface."
"No! NO! You might be willing to sell your butthole in exchange for power, but not me! I am still a virgin!" Tan Bu continued to struggle. However, only a few seconds later, Tan Bu found out that he was no longer able to move his arms, and a few more seconds later, he couldn't even talk any longer.
Suddenly, he heard Wang Tong's commanding voice. "Start your GN circulation. Now!"
Subdued by Wang Tong's powerful soul energy, Tan Bu had no other option but to follow his order. Tan Bu's body started to rotate and spin in the air as Wang Tong guided Tan Bu's GN force to wade through his system.
After an hour, Wang Tong had completed one circulation and made the changes at a few nodes. The seed had been planted, and the rest was up to the gardener.
When Tan Bu woke up, his first thought was that he was sexually violated.
"How do you feel?" Wang Tong asked. Beside him, Duo Lun was laughing.
Tan Bu rose up from his bed and was about to shout at the rapist when he felt a gush of energy roiling inside of him. "... I am ... Am I level eleven now? I am... I am! I am level eleven now! Haha!"
