Everyone was guessing, and most assumed that Levi would go East next.
They had three reasonings behind making that guess. The first was that the Eastern border was simply too close to Oakland City and posed too much threat.
The second was that the army in the East Warzone was slightly weaker. Levi’s previous patter, from South to North, suggested that he was moving from the weakest army to the strongest army.
The third was that the army in the West warzone was simply too powerful. It would take him a long time to win the war there… if that was even possible in the first place.
As a team that specialized in ambushing, it only made sense that they went after the weaker link first.
The East Warzone had to be the next target!
Floyd and his men were under a lot of pressure and were trapped in the defense barrier in the East.
To make matters worse, their enemy had increased in number, and that made them suffer even more.
They could, at most, last another three days.
Despite the grave situation, Floyd grinned and told his men, “Don’t worry, boys. Reinforcement will be here soon!”
When Floyd heard the news, he knew that his master, Levi, had to be one behind the victory in the North.
Floyd’s analysis was that Levi would go to the East border soon to deal with the enemy before heading over to the West to attack at full force.
That was why he believed Levi would be there soon.
He grinned confidently despite the grave situation.
His optimism encouraged his men, and they abandoned defense to go offense.
Things were better for a while.
However, what they didn’t anticipate was for Levi to lead Kai and Heath to the West Warzone after winning the war in the North.
Levi’s reasoning was that it was better to rip the band-aid off.
Things had already been exposed, and their enemy were already aware of their existence, so Levi was being targeted and attacked left, right, and center.
Hence, there was no point in ambushing or strategizing anymore.
F*ck that! I will face them head-on. We have to defeat both armies in the East and the West to win, anyway, so there is no point in choosing anymore. We’ll just go to the closest opponent, even if they are stronger!
For that particular battle, Levi stopped leading his men in the dark. He fought head-on.
It will be over in a matter of seconds.
Turned out, behaving irrationally and wildly worked surprisingly well.
Lee Jong-guk and Jared were getting ready in the East warzone, waiting for Levi to show up.
Jared was especially excited when he claimed, “The thousand energizers I have saved up will be put on display soon!”
Jared wanted to elevate his position within the Ruling Union, so he got his trump card out.
A thousand energizers were equivalent to all of Jared’s wealth.
“That’s fantastic news. Everyone assumes that your Deicide is no longer effective, so let’s teach the Erudian army a lesson using your weapon!”
“Hahaha!”
Everyone guffawed in glee at that thought.
Powerful figures of the Triple Group were already on standby.
All that was left was to wait for Levi to show up.
At the Western Warzone.
The enemies’ major players were all stationed there, so the battles there were the most brutal.
The casualty was heavy on both sides, and that was especially true for the Erudian army that was being cornered.
Agonized howls echoed endlessly.
Even the military doctors had to get on the field.
They had to help and treat patients on the spot to minimize loss.
Many doctors were busying away in the middle of the field.
Most doctors on site were from the Medical Elite ancient family.
At that moment, they were all warriors.
Modern doctors were not of much help because traditional medicine was better at healing the soldiers. It allowed them to regain their stamina quickly.
That was why the Medical Elite ancient family was crucial.
They were the reason the Ruling Union still couldn’t break through the fourth defense barrier completely.
A familiar figure soon showed up in the middle of the warzone.
It was Abigail.
She went to the warzone after her wedding was disrupted.
Seeing the increasing number of casualties got hopelessness to fill her heart.
