"Duo Lun, would you please do it again? I will help you adjust the GN nodes' movement. Hang in there, it might hurt a little."

Duo Lun couldn't suppress a laugh and said, "Haha, furface, that's fine. I don't want to die yet."

"Hehe, I won't harm you. Now tell me, don't you feel it difficult to progress when your soul energy reaches the fifth GN node?" Wang Tong cracked a smile and then pointed at Duo Lun's belly.

Duo Lun scowled, "How did you know? I always thought that I had done something wrong, and it has been freaking me out. It's very close to my groin, you know."

"Hehe, worry not. The tactics of sixty-four nodes are very decent, but it requires the practitioner to open a few critical GN nodes. Otherwise, the belligerent GN force would easily harm you."

"Who told you that?"

"No one, but I have seen the tactics before. Now, no more questions. Do you want my help or not?"

"Yes, yes! Tell me what I should do." Duo Lun tugged at Wang Tong's sleeve and pleaded for his help.

"Start your tactics now, and do as I say."

"No problem, right away!"

As soon as Duo Lun started the tactics, Wang Tong channeled out his soul energy to meet the young soldier. Suddenly, Duo Lun felt a deluge of energy rush into his system and hijack the movement of his soul energy. The sudden development startled Duo Lun. However, he conceded that it was already too late to stop, so he continued to guide his energy to follow Wang Tong's. After some time, he found out that due to the intrusion of Wang Tong's energy, the GN nodes had formed a different configuration. Instead of sixty-four nodes, additional sixteen nodes were running in parallel.

As Wang Tong guided Duo Lun's soul energy, he marveled at how quickly Duo Lun was able to pick up things. Had Duo Lun met a good teacher sooner, he would have already been one of the best soldiers in Battle Wolf.

"KOM!"

After the soul energy completed a circulation through all the GN nodes, it charged up the intensity and speared toward the few sluggish nodes that needed to be opened.

It was difficult to describe the exhilarating feeling inside Duo Lun when the nodes were forced open, like a parched field final meeting the kiss of a downpour.

"KOM!" Duo Lun knew there and then that his power was increased by at least a few folds.

The entire process took less than an hour. After Duo Lun had made the breakthrough, he followed Wang Tong's instruction and finished another round of tactics. The difference was even more noticeable during the second time around. Duo Lun had never felt so much control over his soul energy.

When Duo Lun finally opened his eyes from deep cultivation, he saw Wang Tong's face. However, he had the nagging feeling that Wang Tong was hiding something under his furry beard. All the while, Wang Tong behaved obedient and quiet around the camp, but deep down in his chest, Duo Lun reckoned, was a throbbing, fiery heart. What was the desire that fanned the flame inside Wang Tong? And, why would he try so hard to hide it?

"Remember how it felt. It could be difficult to adjust to double GN circulations in the beginning. Remember the balance between the two circulations' speed. "Wang Tong took a sip of water and then said.

Duo Lun was perplexed by Wang Tong's incredible knowledge of tactics. "Who are you?" He finally asked. He was convinced that only Guan Dongyang would have such profound understanding of the inner workings of tactics. Even if it were Guan Dongyang, Duo Lun wagered that he would not so easily alter the course of movement of another cultivator's soul energy. What furface had done was unheard of!

"I have already told you, my name is Wang Tong." Wang Tong said.

"Balls! How could I have never heard of you? You are...incredible!"

"Why would I lie to you? I am not that incredible anyway."

"By the gods! I need to tell the captain about your ability. We could use your talent!"

Wang Tong shook his head, "Save your energy. I am not planning to stay here for too long. Once I have taken care of some business here, I will pack up and leave."

Looking at Duo Lun's suspicious face, Wang Tong cracked a smile and announced, "Don't you worry, I don't work for the Zergs."

"That is not what I am worried about. Are you sure you can't stay at Battle Wolf?" Duo Lun knew that Wang Tong was not only a grandmaster mechanic, but also a powerful METAL fighter. He couldn't bring himself to blame him for not wanting to stay with Battle Wolf either.

"Hehe, it was my pleasure to meet everyone here, but we all have things we need to take care of. " Wang Tong said quietly, but Duo Lun was quick to pick up the extraordinary difficulties in the task that Wang Tong wished to accomplish.

"Furface, if you ever need my help, feel free to let me know. I will do whatever I can!"

Wang Tong smiled faintly and then said, "Sure. I am hungry, so how about starting with some food?"

Although everyone in the Battle Wolf had strict personal rations, Duo Lun was able to spend some of his personal favors he had accumulated over time to exchange a couple of delicious dishes for Wang Tong. It was a small price to pay for his advancement in cultivation. He had skipped level nine and arrived at level ten directly; it was a dream coming true.

As Wang Tong wolfed the meals down his throat, Duo Lun practiced his new tactics enthusiastically. He still couldn't believe his luck, that a kicka*s teacher would merely fall from the sky into his lap.

Ever since Guan Dongyang had announced to partake in the raid, the entire camp had been preparing for the coming battle. The night before the attack, Guan Dongyang gathered everyone around the campfire and gave them an inspiring speech.

"I will need one hundred warriors; fifty METAL fighters and fifty mastery users. If you would like to join me, report to Ross."

Guan Dongyang knew that he would need the best of the best for this mission. Thanks to years of patient guidance, many mastery fighters in Battle Wolf had achieved a high level in their cultivation. Although Guan Dongyang didn't name anyone, he had expected those high-level warriors to join the fight willingly.

Despite having the element of surprise, this raid was still very risky. Guan Dongyang knew that they had to be in and out of there quickly before the Zerg army in the city could be mobilized.

Wang Tong followed Duo Lun to the enlistment station and submitted his application. Ross accepted Duo Lun 's paper, but refused to let Wang Tong join the mission. His reason was two folds: first, Wang Tong was not a fighter in his eyes, and second, Wang Tong had a valuable skill that would be desperately needed after the battle was over.

The enlisted warriors' smiled broadly after they had received their shiny new METAL that had just been tuned up by Wang Tong.

"Duo Lun, we all owe you a huge thanks for finding this mechanic out there."

"Goddamn it! This METAL feels awesome!"

"Is this really my METAL? I remembered that there was a crack in my pauldron. It's gone now!"

Duo Lun shook his head and lamented how little his comrades knew about Furface's abilities.

Under the moonless sky, the resistance forces waited quietly for their target to arrive. Thunder Fire had sent three hundred pairs of capable hands, and Rock Buster had sent two hundred. A few hundred paces away from the two factions, Battle Wolf's mastery warriors hid on the other side of the hill, waiting for instructions. They had been waiting for over twenty four hours, but years of fighting with Zerg had taught them the importance of patience.

Their plan was simple: as soon as the Zergs' fleet appeared on the trail between the two hills, Battle Wolf's mastery casters would immediately stun the enemies with an AOE spell. METAL warriors would then charge down the hill to lay waste to the fleet. It was evident that Guan Dongyang's mastery team played a critical role in the attack.

A few hours later, the scouts reported the sightings of a few flying Zergs, vanguards of the Zerg fleet. Clearly, the target was very near. After a while, the ground started to tremble.
