Chapter 2642 Stop The Plans
Especially Gary, who was giving it his all, handed over all the properties he had.
He believed in Levi, and wanted to take a chance.
Even though they hadn’t used the entire nation’s power this time, they had still used one-fourth of the power in the National Treasury.
That was a massive blow to the country.
It was especially so as they weren’t able to use any of the power they had now.
Things were not looking good, and they were suffering quite a loss.
It was a grave problem now that Erudia had been weakened indirectly.
“Now, we’ll have to minimize Erudia’s losses as much as we can. You’ll have to stop whatever plans to build Shelter. Sell the materials you haven’t used, or you can use them somewhere else. Anyway, just do whatever you can to minimize the losses. You’ve been scammed by Levi, so now you have to clean up his mess,” Donald said.
Craig and a few others nodded. “That’s the only way. The best way to minimize the losses now is to stop the Shelter project.”
“What a joke! You’re stopping such a big project when it’s halfway finished? Stop spewing nonsense if you don’t know what you’re saying, Donald! Why are you always getting others involved?” Death Fiend roared in anger.
Let’s see if he’d still be smiling if he found out Dark Emperor’s true identity.
“What do you mean? Did I get in your way for talking about Levi?”
Naturally, Donald didn’t agree to it.
He was someone with a temper too.
“Do you have a death wish?”
They were just about to start a fight when Craig and the others hurried over to stop them.
“There’s no need to ruin the peace when all of us are on the same side. Let’s all leave now since there’s nothing else to discuss. We’ll have to withdraw our defense barrier too. Everything should go back to how things used to be.”
Craig and the others were already planning to withdraw their forces.
After all, they had already won the battle.
“Huh? You’re withdrawing, Craig? Are you going to withdraw all of the defense barriers of the coast?”
Death Fiend and the rest panicked upon hearing what he said.
This is no small matter!
He’s not even going to consider it again before withdrawing?
“Huh? Of course! Why should we keep the defense barrier when we’ve already won the battle? It’s very costly to continue maintaining them,” the man replied instinctively answered.
“What? That’s not right! The dangers have not subsided yet. What if another Warmachine attacked us again? What if they’re more powerful than they were before? Withdrawing our defense barrier is equivalent to welcoming them to attack us with open arms!” Death Fiend explained his concerns.
Daxon and a few others nodded their heads in agreement.
Even though Levi’s prediction did not come true, they should not be taking things lightly.
What if everything is just a distraction this time?
What if the real battle comes later?
They were basically inviting their enemies by withdrawing their defense barrier now.
They still believed in Levi’s words after all.
Craig simply smiled and said, “A person will only believe in what they saw with their own eyes.”
“The Warmachines are dead already. We’ve caught at least ten of them, and we’ll show them to Crown King. We’ll show him that even though they keep claiming that the Warmachines are extremely strong, we were still able to defeat them. Not only that, but we also manage to capture so many of them.”
“On top of that, these Warmachines didn’t only target Erudia. They’ve also attacked Zarain and other countries. But they were still defeated in the end. They are not as strong as Crown King had described them to be.”
“Besides, why don’t you see things from our point of view? Do you know the losses we’ll have to bear if we don’t withdraw our forces and stop the Shelter project?”
The few of them voiced out their opinions.
Right then, Notos stepped forward and asked, “But have you ever thought about where these Warmachines came from? Are there any of them left? If there are, how many of them are there? Are they any stronger? Would they still attack us?”
Having heard that, everyone fell silent.
They were so pleased that they had won the battle that none of them stopped to think about these problems.
But they still existed.
No one could guarantee that there weren’t any Warmachines left after the battle, and it was highly likely for something like this to happen.
