Tempest of the Battlefield Chapter 625

Everyone quickly agreed on the plan of attack . With the addition of the Kaedeian units and fresh supply they had found during the last battle, Battle Wolf was ready to strike out again .  

"Good choice! If we can take down Pulorita, we are pretty much slapping Moye on his ugly face . If he still remains inactive, I doubt he would still have enough authority left among the other dark one city lords . " Lie Jian cracked a smile .

"Well, let's do it then! I am curious to see a queen that produces dark ones . "

Everyone looked to Wang Tong, and the latter nodded . "We can't just walk up to the city wall like this . The Zergs are prepared this time . "

"Indeed! I wish we can sneak a mastery attack on them using the forbidden power . " Michaux exclaimed . It had been three days since the last time he had called upon the forbidden power . By then, he was fully recovered and ready to do it again .

"That's what I am planning too . We could sneak in from the sewers . Heidi, you and your girls can sneak up on them in the air . "

Wang Tong started to analyze their options to the finest detail . As a member of the queen's guard, Heidi was not a typical frail princess waiting to be saved; she was a competent METAL warrior . As most METAL warriors, she was skeptical of mastery spells . Although she believed in Wang Tong's power—and almost anything he said—her unfamiliarity with mastery gave birth to doubts in her mind . Seeing that everyone was on board with the plan, she kept her doubts unspoken . She was confident that Battle Wolf would be able to take down the city, but at what cost? Every soldier counted, and their priority should be minimizing the casualties .

Heidi didn't lead her soldiers to a suicide mission . She was here to help the chosen one in accomplishing his mission, and she intended to live to see that happen .

Everyone knew that Lie Jintian was not powerful enough to kill Moye; otherwise, he would have already done that since he had plenty of opportunities to do so at the beginning of the war . Wang Tong was the only one who could kill the dark lord .

Moye was not stupid like his dark one minions, and therefore, he would try to avoid the battle as much as possible . Heidi was here to create an opportunity for Wang Tong . Her plan was simple: when Wang Tong and his men finally found the dark lord, she would have her soldiers guard the area so that he could focus on the Dark Lord . That was her mission, simple but deadly .

When the oracle told her that Wang Tong was the only person who would be able to defeat Moye, she didn't think twice and believed it . It was not like she a second candidate anyway .

After she had joined Battle Wolf for some time, she realized that Wang Tong was a much more astute leader than she had thought . Even when things were looking rosy, he remained prudent and was careful in making each one of his decisions .  

She had expected Wang Tong to go after the dark castle right after she joined forces with him . But, she was pleasantly surprised by his strategic thinking and sharp mind .  

She conceded that Wang Tong was different from most minor leaders, such as Lie Jian and herself . Something happened at the certain point of Wang Tong's life that had made him who he was and stand out among even the best warriors of the time .  

Wang Tong knew what he wanted, when to move, and when to wait . He saw things happening in front of him as a small piece of the puzzle in a much larger game . Being able to see things as interconnected pieces gave him the knowledge of the shortest route to his final goal . A side step in others' eyes, could be a necessary maneuver to avoid failure straight ahead . Never once he was blinded by selfishness or personal ambitions . As a matter of fact, he didn't seem to have any worldly desire at all .

Heidi listened to the battle plan carefully and decided to keep her doubts to herself after seeing that even Lie Jian had supported Wang Tong .

Lie Jian was smart enough to know not to oppose Wang Tong, at least not yet . To survive, he could only follow him .  

Once the meeting was over, everyone returned to their quarters to rest . They would move out the next day first thing in the morning . Wang Tong and Heidi remained in the meeting room, as both of them knew they had something to say to each other . Lie Jian insisted on staying with them, but was dragged out by Michaux in the end .  

"Brother Wang, I had never thought that I would see you again," Heidi said calmly .

"Thank you for not calling me the chosen one…Haha . " Wang Tong laughed broadly . He knew Heidi wanted to tell him something, perhaps a request?

"If my mother finds out that I call you by your name, she will be very upset . " A faint smile finally broke over her face .  

"Hehe, you should smile more often . Fill yourself with positive energy . " Wong jested .  Heidi's smile evaporated . "It's hard to be positive living in this world . "

"Why not? Do we have to be so gloomy all the time because we are at war? We decide our life…We choose to be happy . "

"Do we really have a choice?" Heidi asked, there was an edge in her voice .

"Of course! But, you need to believe in your choice, live in it, and learn from it . No one but ourselves can save us, so don't stop believing in yourself . " Wang Tong said with a smile . Heidi gave Wang Tong a wry smile . It was easier said than done .

"Of course! But, you need to believe in your choice, live in it, and learn from it . No one but ourselves can save us, so don't stop believing in yourself . " Wang Tong said with a smile . Heidi gave Wang Tong a wry smile . It was easier said than done .

"There is something . . . My mother told me to keep it to myself, but I will let you know because I think you deserve to know . "

"I am all ears and thank you . "

"I have brought the best soldiers with me, and all of us are ready to die for your mission . However, in exchange, you need to ensure the survival of the Kaedeian race . I need to hear it from you . " Heidi said, almost pleading .
Wang Tong looked around at the Kaedeian Princess; she had shed the pride and honor that she used to armor herself with and revealed to him her naked and fragile mind . Whatever Wang Tong would say next, he knew he had to be circumspect .

"Kaedeians had always been a part of the Confederation, and no one will harm your race . I am glad that you are willing to fight alongside me, and I can give you my promise . As long as I am still alive, I will not let anyone harm you and your race . " Wang Tong announced firmly .

A slow smile broke over Heidi's face, and then she beamed from side to side .  "You are much better than that rascal Lie Jian . if he were you, he was going to ask me to…" Heidi stopped and blushed .  

Wang Tong scanned her lovely face and was amused . "As I said, you need to smile more often . Your beauty is also a power, particularly over a man like Lie Jian . It would give them bravery and make them want to fight for you . Lie Jian might seem like a promiscuous playboy, but he is much more than that, I guarantee you . Now, on that note, I am not entirely a gentleman either . Haha . " Wang Tong jested and laughed .

Wang Tong loved cracking jokes, and Heidi had been asking for it to come .
Warriors performed much better when their mind was relaxed, and therefore, Wang Tong always kept a number of goofballs around in his team, such as Tan Bu, to ease the soldiers' nerves .

Heidi blushed . She didn't disclose the full extent of her mission yet, but she knew she had to break the ice, however awkward it was .

"I was just pulling your leg!" Wang Tong explained . Shyness besting her duty, Heidi gathered herself, then paused and said, "I can tell that . "

…

The next day morning, the Pulorita City was filled with terrified shrieks of the dark ones .  

The human devil had come!

The Kaedeians attacked from the air while Battle Wolf charged at the city on their hell-bound mounts .  

Zergs soon poured out of the city wall to meet their invaders . Despite the size of the defending force, the direwolves charged through them like a knife through butter . They skipped all the tasteless primitive zergs and went straight after the nutritious dark ones . Everyone quickly agreed on the plan of attack .
