Li Xiu scrambled to his feet and ran towards the Thunder Fire's camp without saying a word, and that was it for the negotiation.

Wang Tong walked into the meeting room. "So?"

"They will start the attack soon."

"Li Xiu is quite a character, isn't he?" Wang Tong remarked.

"You think so?"

"There are many types of talents. As the chief adviser of the Thunder Fire, he had the guts to walk into our Camp, which means he is not just a pretty pin cushion. What a shame that he chooses to serve Marcos. Are you ready for Nihlathak?"

"If it were a few months ago, I would say no. But now that I am level nineteen, at least I get a chance, however slim it is."

"It's good that you think that way. You can focus solely on Nihlathak, and not worry about the rest. "

"Hehe… I have been waiting for you to say that."

Guan Dongyang knew that the outcome of his fight with the Hammer would make or break his overall plan. He had been waiting for this fight for a long time, so he was determined to win.

Wang Tong scanned the one hundred or so soldiers that made up the expendable unit.

"Ross, are you ready for this?"

"Don't worry boss. We are all ready to give up our lives for your band."

"Nah, Nah, no one is going to die. This is not a suicide mission, but a test of your recent training. Although, you guys could use a little bit more time to perfect what you have learned."

Wang Tong said as he gave everyone an approving smile.

Ross was caught off guard by Wang Tong's benevolence and calmness. Ross would be lying to say that he wasn't scared. However effective last couple month of training had been, the Thunder Fire was ten times stronger in number, and could easily overwhelm them. However, Wang Tong's words helped to soothe their overwrought nerves and instill a much-needed confidence in them.

"Go now. Find out what they are up to right now."

Wang Tong climbed up the watchtower and saw heavy METAL units pressing ahead of their marching column. The Thunder Fire's plan was clear: they knew that Guan Dongyang wouldn't come out of the camp due to Nihlathak, and therefore, they were planning to attack the camp defense with the slow but deadly heavy METAL.

News of this battle quickly spread throughout the district. Thunder Fire's decisive advantage had made the battle seem more like a show.

The heavy METAL pressed closer to the camp, trampling down whatever was in their way. These deadly war machines had the ability to level the camp defense in a blink once they got close enough.

Behind the bulky and slow heavy METAL were rows after rows of METAL fighters.

Once the Battle Wolf's camp was within the heavy METAL's shooting range, they paused, aimed their missile launchers, and then launched thousands of ballistic missiles toward the camp wall. The missiles exploded before they were able to get too close to the wall, as if they had hit an invisible wall. Was it energy shield?

Ye Zi had asked aid from Michaux, and the young master and sent in a few energy shield stations to help the Battle Wolf's defense. That was all he could do.

However, after only one round of intense bombardment, the energy shield ran out of juice, and the camp was exposed.

Guan Dongyang watched the battle unfold from the top of the watchtower with Wang Tong on his side.

He knew that if the next barrage reached their camp, many lives would be lost.

Wang Tong reached out his hands, and two golden balls appeared. Guan Dongyang had no idea what they were, but he could feel that they held tremendous energies within. However, it was difficult for Guan Dongyang to discern whether it was GN force or natural forces that were packed inside the balls.

The golden balls started to spin and let out a whirl with an increasingly higher pitch. In a blink, they flattered into discs.

Wang Tong drew a large gulp of air as if he replenished the energy that he had spent to cast the spell.

Everyone inside the camp was stunned by the first round of shelling. The second round was about to come. Ross and his comrades looked at the steel monsters in the distance and then looked up at the watchtower where two figures stood still against a golden light.

"Dongyang, go… NOW!"

Guan Dongyang launched himself into the sky, and then a deafening voice boomed down at the invaders.

"Nihlathak, come out and meet your death."

Nihlathak heard the voice calling him out. He smirked and then disappeared into thin air. When he reappeared, he was already hovering high up in the sky.

"Kiddo, surrender now, and I will let you live."

"Nihlathak, you are getting old and easily confused. What a pity that I have a do away with such a high-level warrior."

"You are courting death! " Nihlathak's face was contorted with anger, as if fire was going to erupt out of all holes on his face. He waved a hand, signaling the heavy METAL to attack.

Before the cannons were able to fire another shot, Wang Tong unleashed the two spinning discs, each of whom had grown to about three meters in size. They shot at the artillery column and sliced into their gun barrel like butter. In half a heartbeat, the two discs had demolished a dozen or so heavy siege cannons.

The Art of Soul Essence—Essence Buzz Saw!

The two golden discs didn't stop and continued to wreak havoc deeper into the enemy rank. A few Thunder Fire soldiers threw themselves at the discs in an effort to stop them. Their bodies were sliced in half before they could even utter a cry.

Seeing that a few dozen more siege cannons were turned into piles of scrap metal, Nihlathak turned around, intending to rush and stop the discs. However, his path was blocked by Guan Dongyang.

"Mr. Nihlathak, you are fighting me, don't you remember?"

Before Guan Dongyang finished his words, he started a mastery and unleashed a fire drake at the Hammer.

Nihlathak sent out a wave of soul energy and shattered the fire drake in an instant.

"Incredible! You have already reached level nineteen… No wonder so many people kept on telling me about you. Too bad for you, today will be the day you die!" Nihlathak changed his mind about saving the screaming heavy METAL warriors below him and decided to focus on the level nineteen mastery caster.

The two golden discs were unstoppable, and not even the heavy METAL warriors were able to alter their course, much less stationary equipment.

As the golden discs wheezed past their heads, the METAL warriors that survived heaved a sigh of relief. But when then looked ahead, they were terrified to find another two of such discs that were charging towards them.

Gold was the color of harvest, but the four golden discs were harvesting life instead of crops that nurtured life.

Warriors inside the camp watched the slaughter with awe and terror. They had never seen anything that was so efficient in claiming lives from this world.

Wang Tong walked out of the watchtower and towards a group of soldiers. "Hey, how are you guys holding up there?"

The levity in his voice made the soldiers' hair stand on their ends. Was Wang Tong a human or a demon from hell?

"We are waiting for your orders!"

The five hundred heavy METAL that used to be the pride of the Thunder Fire were decimated by Wang Tong. The ear piercing squelching noise of the discs sawing into Metal and the wet sloppy noise of them cutting into flesh had driven the survivors mad. They dropped their weapons and turned on their heels.

Marcos was shocked by the sorry state of his vanguard.

Li Xiu was stunned by the scene as well. In front of them, the ground where the five hundred heavy METAL warriors stood was painted with red blood leaking out of their bodies and black grease from the machines. There had been five hundred warriors standing there, and now, there was no one left.

Wang Tong didn't follow up with more attacks. He hoped that Marcos could rein in his foolishness and retreat.

"Captain, what should we do?" Li Xiu was almost losing it, and didn't know what to do next. The setback had dealt a huge blow to their morale. However, if they pulled back, they would be a laughing stock for the rest of their lives.

Marcos swallowed down the humiliation and reckoned that his hope rested on Nihlathak. But somehow, he had a nagging feeling that something worse was waiting for him.

In theory, a Mastery caster would never be able to win a one on one fight against a METAL warrior. There were only a very few of the mastery casters who could fight against METAL warriors, and Guan Dongyang happened to be one of those few exceptional casters.
