Chapter 296: Chapter 154: Formidable Enemy: Huo Rong!_3

"Instead of taking him away, let’s fight with all our might!"

Deep Sea’s eyes were mostly filled with firelight:

"Just like how we surrounded Xing Dian earlier, let’s surround Huo Rong again!"

Wan Xiaoqi, who was driving, reminded, "There are over a hundred Spiritual Ability User reactions outside the camp, all A and B level. This number already exceeds our defensive capabilities, and most of the special drones (arrays) Mr. Wang set up have been damaged and need repairs before we can use them."

The car fell silent.

Wan Xiaoqi lightly tapped the brakes, the supply vehicle coming to a stop in front of a rising elevator.

The second and third transport vehicles that were following, along with Ji Xiao, Wu Man, Ji Yale, Zheng Shiduo, Mu Dan, and a group of Special Team members, jumped down in unison.

They thought they were going to meet the enemy on the surface.

Deep Sea and Lingtong locked eyes, neither willing to back down.

Wang Jixuan raised his hand slightly, "How about... I go talk to these people? During the negotiation process, Mu Dan can take me towards the wilderness, and we lure them out of the range of Fortress 76, then we can take care of them with a nuclear bomb?"

"Then what about you? Are you going to carry the nuclear bomb, too?"

Lingtong suddenly became somewhat agitated, but restrained her emotions:

"Your value is far above mine, Deep Sea, everyone here combined!

Failing to anticipate their encirclement of the Demon-breaking Dagger’s origin was a mistake in my duties. I don’t want to personally doom the only hope humanity has of countering the Blade Beasts.

Wang Zheng, you are that hope!"

Wang Jixuan, however, said, "I’m not. I’m just a cultivator trying to make myself stronger. You give me shelter, and I provide you with technology; it’s a fair trade."

"Then this fair trade is our hope. If you die, or if they capture you, then we’ve got nothing left."

Lingtong’s chest rose and fell slightly as she took a syringe from Wan Xiaoqi’s hand, gazing at Wang Jixuan.

"Sorry, but if someone must play the bad guy, then let it be me.

I can stay and die with Fortress 76, but you must obey my command. When we engage the Spiritual Ability Users in street combat, Ji Xiao will take you from here. I will have Deep Sea and Mu Dan on the outside as support for you. The rest of the Half-human Mechas will enter Upper City and lie in ambush.

The ground troops are already spreading to the perimeter. They’ll maintain our strength during the first wave of impact and then cover your retreat.

When you leave here, we will eliminate this group of Spiritual Ability Users with the least sacrifices.

This is an anesthetic for Spiritual Ability Users. I didn’t want to use it on you... Wang Zheng, look at me! Please, carry out the order!"

Wang Jixuan sighed softly, then smiled faintly:

"Aye aye, Commander."

Lingtong breathed a sigh of relief.

Yet Wang Jixuan was inwardly impressed.

She did have a certain charm when she got serious.

The situation today, however, was not so easily resolved. In such chaotic times, hoping to peacefully continue cultivation was like a fool’s dream.

If that was the case, then they couldn’t blame him.

Wang Jixuan suddenly said,

"Ji Xiao, Wu Man, the two of you come with me.

Mu Dan, stay extremely close and protect Lingtong. If Lingtong decides to use self-destruct tactics, dismantle her mechanical arm.

Deep Sea will take over the command. Lingtong has lost her calm."

Lingtong frowned, "Wang Zheng, Junior Mechanic, I’m issuing orders now!"

Wang Jixuan knocked on the car door, ducked his head, and got out. Mu Dan had already come rushing up, displaying a command from the Commander on her arm’s projective screen.

"Sorry, Major Lingtong, my superior has the highest command authority here, overriding all urgent commands. This is an encrypted personal letter from the Commander!"

Ji Xiao and Wu Man hurriedly followed Wang Jixuan.

Wang Jixuan, without looking back, waved his hand, and then clenched his fist towards the sky.

"Fight as usual, don’t worry about me.

And remember, the hope of humanity lies in its own will. The fair trade with the D5 war zone is just one of the paths to realizing this will.

Let the high winds and sudden storms come, for I shall ride the winds and scale the clouds!"
