Chapter 2667 Shameless
Craig, Nicholas, and Chandler were thunderstruck.
Their minds went blank upon the realization.
Nobody was spared from the shock of the startling revelation.
Zephyr’s premonition was spot-on; Death Fiend’s insistence was grounded.
Even Crown King’s prediction was dead-on.
His idea of building walls as a defense barrier was proven to be correct as well.
If everyone had listened to him, there would already be a three-hundred-meter tall wall alongside the coastline of Erudia, shielding the country from those Warmachines!
Otherwise, how would they be able to land on Erudia?
It would have been virtually impossible for them to accomplish that!
Even if they had not built the wall, they were actually planning to build hundreds of Shelters that would be able to accommodate most people who were due for evacuation should there be an attack.
At the very least, if their defense barrier was still in place, though it would be less effective than a three-hundred-meter wall, it would be able to at least hold the enemies for a moment.
However, their complacence had led them to squander every single chance that could have saved them from landing themselves in such a predicament.
The rest of them had rejected all ideas for defenses on the grounds of lack of substantial evidence.
Gary was infuriated. “I told you guys to believe in Crown King! When was he ever wrong? All of you are to be blamed for this! Isn’t this a bigger problem now? It used to be just a matter of profit and loss, but now it’s become a matter of Erudia’s survival! Who’s going to step up and take the blame for this?”
In face of Gary’s accusations, everyone lowered their heads and dared not utter a single word.
Craig asked his men to keep their mouths shut as well.
“If Crown King and the others insisted, we might not have…” someone said in a small voice.
Gary glowered at the man and snapped, “What?” Did he just say that Crown King should have insisted? Did they even give him a chance to do so? Not only Crown King, but did they even give Zephyr and me a chance? We’ve been standing firm all this time. Hence, what are you yakking on about? They would call for a vote whenever there were arguments on their next course of action.
Unfortunately, only a select few were wise enough to make the right decision.
Besides, it would just take time to recover should they suffer from a loss. Now that things had taken a turn for the worse, they were at a total loss on their next course of action.
Slap!
Craig slapped himself multiple times.
“It’s all my fault! I’m the sinner who brought upon the downfall of Erudia!”
The others were likewise filled with utter regret.
“Maybe Crown King has not gone into solitary training. Instead, he left because you guys got on his nerve!” Gary bellowed.
Chandler, Nicholas, and the others were on the verge of tears.
“It’s my fault! I would like to apologize to Crown King and everyone!”
“All right, all right! Stop yelling! We should focus on building our defenses and advances right now! Quick, get moving! I’d like to see who has the audacity to live on in degradation when Erudia is gone!”
Right then, Dragonites activated the highest level of emergency alert as it gathered all of its fighters.
They no longer held back and went all out as they unleashed their best weapons.
Top dogs in the country like Garrison Industry and the likes also offered a helping hand.
Craig brought his Suicide Squad and Mecha Corps, alongside a number of elites to the frontline.
His men were among the first to reach the frontline as they mobilized all resources to control the situation.
Meanwhile, Nicholas led a backup army and groups of people that he managed to assemble. Then, he made the corresponding arrangements and sent the people to where they were needed the most.
Nicholas’ army was among the strongest and largest in the alliance.
