At that moment, everyone knew that Erudia’s trump card and experts were fighting the war on the battlefield.
That had to mean that the city was vulnerable, and they assumed that conquering the city was a sure thing.
They were especially confident because they sent five hundred martial artists over.
Hence, Bruce waited patiently after he returned to Zarain.
He didn’t share the news about how he lost the battle in the West because he didn’t want the news to affect the remaining soldiers.
He also wanted to ambush Levi with Jared’s upgraded Deicide.
That was why, other than those in the Warzone, no one else knew about what happened in the West.
“We still have a shot at winning this war. First, we take Oakland City down, then we’ll have Jared kill Levi off in the East Warzone. That way, when we break through, we’d be able to coordinate with our men, who would already be inside the city. Erudia will still fall, and we will still win,” said Bruce before he prayed, “I pray to the heaven above. Please… let there be no more surprises.”
That was their last hope of winning the war.
“Mr. Bruce, the five hundred martial artists we sent are nearing Oakland City. Shall I give the order to attack?”
“Yes!” ordered Bruce.
All five hundred martial artists took off.
They entered Oakland City from different locations.
There were fifty men per team and ten teams in total.
Each one of them had their own mission to accomplish.
After receiving their orders, they ran toward their designated location to carry out their mission.
“We have been waiting for quite some time. Hahaha…”
Unfortunately, someone barred all ten groups as soon as they moved.
The criminals had been waiting for so long that they were about to scream from boredom.
Some even thought that Levi’s guess was wrong.
However, their enemy came, after all.
“Attack! Kill every single one of them!”
Ice Lord, Fire Lord, and the other Rank Six fighters spearheaded the team and started killing.
The five hundred men that the Ruling Union sent were all Rank Five and Rank Six fighters who were extremely strong.
Unfortunately, there were more criminals there.
It didn’t take long before all five hundred of the Ruling Union’s men were wiped out.
Blood spewed everywhere and agonizing screams echoed.
None of the five hundred fighters survived.
The invisible danger that threatened Oakland City had faded.
At the Dragonites’ training base in Oakland City.
“We received some news. It seemed that fighting experts are closing in on Oakland City.”
“Initiate defense protocol right away! The inevitable will soon befall us.”
The Dragonites anticipated the attack as well, but they had no choice.
All they could do was sit there and wait.
Surprisingly, no one showed up, even though the news of their arrival came ages ago.
Everyone was confused.
What the hell is going on?
The Dragonites remained oblivious to what happened.
At the same time, in the East Warzone.
The Triple Group had gone all out and was attacking Floyd and the others mercilessly.
The former group coordinated well with Jared’s Deicide and left dead bodies all over.
Floyd’s side was suffering heavily.
Supreme class fighters were falling one after another, and they kept being pushed back.
They had already fallen back to the fifth defense barrier, and the criminals were attacking them from behind.
They were trapped in all around.
At first, they estimated that they could hold on for a few more days.
The situation at the time made it so that they could, at most, survive a few more hours.
Even Floyd and his team of elite fighters were wounded.
“This won’t do. We’re still moving too slowly! Our comrades in the West Warzone had fallen, so we’re the Ruling Union’s last hope. From now on, we must abandon all selfish desires and unite as one. We can’t let all this be for naught!”
“He’s right. It all comes down to this!”
At that critical moment.
Lee Jong-guk, Jared, and the other were having a meeting.
Truth was, they didn’t get along well in the past because they didn’t have an actual leader to follow.
However, at that final moment, they united as a team.
“Attack! Go all out and vanquish our enemy. We will not give them any room to breathe!”
