The man in the black dragon mask, Kuro Dragon, smiled contently after listening to the others.
However, the man still felt the need to remind his people, “All of you have to be careful not to leave any trails that might lead back to us. There won’t be enough lives to pay Erudia if they find out about how we’ve betrayed Erudia by plotting with people overseas who wished harm upon Erudia.”
“That’s a given. I’ve resented Erudia for a long time. Exposing myself to be caught will be the last thing I want to do. I am still waiting for the time when I can witness the downfall of Erudia with my very own eyes…”
Another man chimed in, “I have not avenged myself. Why would I leave any trail to be caught?”
“They’re accusing me of being Erudia’s traitor? I’d like to show them how I’m going to avenge myself!”
The group of men expressed their unanimous dissent and exasperation toward Erudia right then.
It was as if Erudia had done irreparable damage to them.
“All right, get ready, all of you,” Kuro Dragon ordered.
His lips curled into a smirk, pleased at the sight.
Meanwhile, Levi had received an order from the Dragonites.
He was to escort something valuable back to Oakland City.
The order came as abruptly as it was urgent, prompting him to set off immediately.
Without Minka, it was a piece of cake to rid himself of her guards.
The Dragonites had only confided in Levi the details of the mission after they were already on the way.
It turned out that the location of a biology laboratory somewhere in the East had been exposed and needed an urgent transfer.
The biology laboratory had become a target for many countries and forces in the dark, and they were quick to pounce on the chance.
The main point was that the biology laboratory housed a type of invaluable gene therapy drug that would be able to dictate Erudia’s future.
It was imperative that they transport it safely back to Oakland City.
However, the news of their plan to transport the drug was leaked, and the Dragonites had anticipated that there would be attempts of robbery along the way.
Due to its indispensable nature, everyone was vying for the gene therapy drug.
If the news of their escort plan had been leaked, then it was likely that the identities of those escorting the drug were exposed as well.
Hence, they had to come up with a way to ensure that the drug would be safely transported back to Oakland City.
The Dragonites weighed their pros and cons, and in the end, decided to let Levi escort the drug back to Oakland City.
He was the perfect candidate since nobody would suspect that he would be the one to escort the invaluable drug as he was thought to be crippled.
After all, he was the formidable God of War.
“We thought about transporting the gene therapy drug by a heavily armed army, but we were concerned about overseas media’s speculation should we take such a high profile approach. Hence, we changed our plan and decided on a secret transfer mission.”
“Crown King, the escort includes the Dragon squad, Phoenix squad, Wolf squad, and the Tiger squad from the Dragonites! We hope that your identity as the team lead remains a secret for fear that we have a traitor among us. Kindly understand.”
Levi nodded his head. “Understood, I will make sure the drug gets safely transported back to Oakland City.”
It did not take long for Levi to reach the base in the East.
The four squads under the Dragonites were already ready.
All of them stood before a secret box.
It was clear as day that the box contained the gene therapy drug.
“Hmm?”
Everyone was flabbergasted at the sight of Levi.
“Why is he selected to lead the escort mission? You’ve got to be kidding me!”
“Isn’t he going to just burden us all? We should be fully focused on transporting the gene therapy drug, right? What are we going to do if we need to divert our attention to protect him instead?”
All of them knew Levi very well and even revered the man.
However, they could not help but question the decision to let him lead the mission to escort the drug.
Is this a joke?
“There’s no need to pay heed to my safety. Just flee if there’s danger!” Levi, who was wheelchair-bound, smirked.
“But…”
“No ifs and buts! We entrust the escort plan in the God of War, and we believe that he has the capacity to command every single one of you to maximize your potential.”
Nobody dared to voice out anything further against the decision afterward.
