Needless to say, all the soldiers stationed at the South were stumped.
They had been holding off their territory all this while.
Despite their best efforts, the third barrier was still struck down.
The sea was the Ruling Union’s forte, after all.
Erudia’s deadliest weapons seemed to have no impact on them.
The gap between Erudia and the enemies were too large for Erudia’s defense mechanism to play its part.
However, Levi brought his men and ordered for an attack right away.
Has he gone nuts?
“Sir, you can’t be serious? It’s the enemies who are advancing! Why are we not defending ourselves and choosing to advance instead?”
All of them were perplexed at what Levi was trying to accomplish.
Levi snorted. “From now on, I’m going to take over the whole South Warzone. All of you shall listen to me!”
“Why should we? The South has always been under National Guardian’s command. How can we simply take your word for it?” Someone in the crowd protested against Levi.
Nobody was taking the man seriously right then.
After all, they were all Supreme class fighters.
It did not matter how many people Levi brought along.
The Dragonites had delegated the authority over the South to the National Guardian, Kai Fisher.
Kai was from the Sapphire Island.
Sapphire Island was full to the brim with Supreme class fighters. As with Poseidon and his men, they were sea people.
After Dragonites’ proactive solicitation and promised benefits, the Sapphire Island people finally joined the ranks of the Dragonites.
The leader of the Sapphire Island, Kai was even appointed as one of the four National Guardians.
“Where is he? Summon Kai right now. Tell him Levi Garrison is asking for him.”
Soon, Kai, who was donning a fighter’s uniform, made his way over flanked by a group of fighters.
“Who’s looking for me?”
The man’s tone was arrogant, and his face was impassive.
“I’m the one looking for you. I am taking over everything in the South. Everyone has to listen to me, and that includes you.”
Levi did not beat around the bush and ordered Kai right away.
Needless to say, his remark stumped Kai’s subordinates.
Who does he think he is?
“Who the hell are you? How are you even qualified to command us?” Kai snapped as he glared at Levi.
“I am Levi Garrison, the Crown King!” That was when Levi revealed his identity.
“Ah, so you’re the Crown King. I know you. You’re thinking of defending the place with the little number of people you brought along? Do you even know what you’re going up against?”
Kai threw Levi a derisive look despite the latter having just disclosed his true identity.
Headcounts mean nothing in battle if you only have unskilled soldiers.
These people are going to be cannon fodders in the face of strong enemies.
“Who said I was going to defend the place? I’m saying we should launch an attack!”
Kai was rendered speechless.
Has he gone cuckoo?
“Hand over your authority and be at my command!” Levi barked.
“Yes, the Crown King is mighty powerful, but I’ve never heard anything about the National Guardians having to abide by you!”
Then, Kai smirked as he recalled something.
“Aren’t you guys going to launch an attack? Let us make way for you guys so that you lot can launch an attack easily.”
Kai continued mockingly, “Our job is to defend this place. In case you’re unaware, I’d like to remind you that our enemies are quite the challenge.”
The man was about to chase Levi off, but he had a change of mind after giving it some thought.
Sending Levi and his men off to a battle is not too bad an idea at all. I have nothing to lose and everything to gain instead.
Seeing as Levi had a four-hundred-thousand army with him, it would naturally take a long time for the enemies to kill them all off.
Essentially, he will be buying us precious time.
Kai would have nothing to lose when Levi and his men were willing to give up their lives to buy him some time.
Of course, Levi was not oblivious to what was playing out on Kai’s mind.
To which, the former replied, “Oh, I don’t think that will be a problem.”
He had not pinned any hopes on the useless bunch anyway.
It’s better that I bring my men to launch an all-out attack.
In the end, Kai opened up the fourth defense barrier to let Levi and his men pass through.
