Lear's expressed wishes and Wang Zheng's current wishes were clearly two different matters. Since they would not sit and wait for death, then they had to go on the offense. Siemen Kang had briefed the two on the route. Zhang Shan and Ao Ziwei were forced to stay. The key was that their physical skills were not up to such missions. Honestly, even if they tumbled into Zerg, these two still had hopes of escaping. But if Zhang Shan and Ao Ziwei were added to the complement, they would die without question. Zhang Shan's warp distance was too short.
Wang Zheng and Lie Xin would go, as they said. Zhang Shan dearly wanted to go. But he was clear that under such circumstances, with his abilities, he would just be a liability.
As long as they found the Conqueror there would be hope.
