Cruelty flashed past Carter’s face.
The man had always believed that being evil was the key to success, even though he came from a family of doctors.
He knew medical skills could be used as a killing tool as much as they could be used as a healing mechanism.
Hence, Carter had specialized and learned about the science of killing people over the past few years.
At that moment, Carter had already agreed to the terms, so Medical Elite and the others had no choice but to support him.
“Yeah, that’s the spirit. Show us how sincere your offer is. That is the only way you can prove that you are one of us. Prep as quickly as possible. You only have twelve hours to accomplish your mission,” said Bruce before he left with a smile.
It was time for Bruce and his men to discuss taking the next step because they had pretty much broken through the Western border.
Medical Elite and the others were now stuck in a difficult position.
They knew Bernard and the others would likely die, but they didn’t realize they would have to be the ones to deliver the killing blows.
They might be shameless, but killing the people they once fought together with got the traitors to feel conflicted.
In a way, they were still slightly triggered and felt a little shame when Bernard and the others had called them traitors.
“It does not feel right. I can’t do it!” complained Medical Elite, who was the first to voice up what everyone had in mind.
“Grandpa, let’s just kill them. If we don’t, we will be the ones to die! This is our test from the Ruling Union!” insisted Carter.
His eyes shone with murderous intent, and he looked merciless.
“If you guys can’t do it, Grandpa, then I will lead my team and attack them!” offered Carter.
He was eager to prove himself and earn a good reputation.
“Alright!”
In the end, it was decided that Carter would lead a team and eradicate their former allies.
“Carter Weissman, you f*cking bastard! It’s bad enough that you’re betraying and deflecting, but you’re going to kill your own comrades as well? Have you no conscience?” roared Abigail when she learned what was happening.
Carter grinned and pointed out, “Abigail, you are a traitor as well. You will contribute to their deaths, and you are just as evil.”
“Y-you will die a horrible death!” growled Abigail.
She wanted to cry, but no tears would come to her.
Unfortunately, she had no way of getting out of the sticky situation she was in.
She would be labeled as Erudia’s traitor once the news got out, and she would not be able to clear her good name.
“You’re becoming more and more disobedient, Abigail. If you keep behaving this way, I will kill your family as well. You know all too well that Erudia will eventually fall,” boasted Carter as he grinned.
At that, the woman became quiet.
She saw how powerful the Ruling Union truly was after she was dragged to their base, and she learned just how much they had at their disposal.
Everything we witnessed earlier is only a fragment of their true strength. Maybe Erudia truly will fall…
At the same moment.
Levi was leading his army and was on the way to help everyone.
“Report! The Medical Elite ancient family and most of our soldiers have deflected to the Ruling Union. As of now, only a few thousand men are standing firm and defending the fourth defense barrier!”
That was the news shared by the spies.
Hearing those words got Levi to howl angrily, “F*cking traitors!”
“Yeah, the Medical Elite ancient family is nothing but a family of scums. I truly overestimated them.”
“Let’s hurry over and eradicate those traitors.”
Everyone regarded the act of surrendering as something shameful and despicable.
Their eyes turned red with anger, and they were so furious that they were trembling.
It was fine if their enemy were more skilled, and it was okay if their enemy was stronger…
But how could they surrender?
F*ck! And to think those people were honored as Medical Elite and National Guardian!
“Okay, let’s speed up. I will teach those assh*les a lesson in person!” roared Levi.
He was furious as well.
At the fourth defense barrier.
Bernard, Tobias, and the few thousand men were standing guard there.
No one spoke, so the place was eerily quiet.
The group was waiting for their deaths.
At that moment, everyone looked ready, and it seemed like they regarded death as nothing more than a pastime.
Vroom! Vroom!
It didn’t take long before they heard a commotion from the mountains.
It was obvious that their enemies were approaching.
“Ready for battle!”
“We shall not deflect, not even if it means we will die!”
Bernard and Tobias shouted.
