Chapter 2684 Battle Of Limingford Mountain
DG Leo once again burst out laughing. “Of course we do! How else would we know that Limingford Mountain’s crawling with enemies?”
Malthe and the other spies were so angry to be played the fools that they nearly exploded with fury.
“Was the fight with the ancient Garrison clan also intentional?” Gerhard piped up, even though he could already guess the answer.
“That goes without saying! When the safety of our country is at stake, why would we still argue about who to take charge? Our fake fight was only to mislead you and have you station your troops at Limingford Mountain!”
It was right there and then that the spies realized they had fallen into a trap.
They thought they had set up the perfect ambush for The Cardinal Hall when in reality, they were the ones who had gotten ensnared.
“What about the ancient Garrison clan fighters?” Eskild retorted.
“If everything goes well, they should have reached the northern side of Limingford Mountain.”
Upon hearing that, Malthe and his gang almost collapsed in a heap.
The Cardinal Hall had planned for this all along! They used us to give our troops’ location away so they could launch a sneak attack and wipe us out! To think they even went to the extent of faking a falling-out with the ancient Garrison clan. Sh*t, we are doomed!
Despite finally learning the truth, Malthe knew it was all too late.
They couldn’t send any signals out to Lab of Gods, nor could they stop The Cardinal Hall.
Just then, one of the subordinates returned with an update. “DG Leo, we’ve received a message from the ancient Garrison clan. They’ve reached the northern entrance of the mountain and are ready to attack anytime!”
“Good! Prepare yourselves, everyone! We’ll launch the combined attack in five minutes!”
Naturally, the spies were on the brink of tears.
They only had themselves to blame for the imminent obliteration of their troops, yet they couldn’t do anything to help.
Meanwhile, the fighters lying in ambush on Limingford Mountain were still unable to make heads or tails of the situation.
They couldn’t fathom why The Cardinal Hall had changed their route at the last minute, but instead of acting rashly, they decided to wait for their spies’ update.
“It’s okay. Let’s wait another ten minutes. If we still don’t hear anything from our people, we’ll take the initiative to attack!”
With that, the troops calmed down and continued to lie in wait.
Unfortunately, it was only five minutes later when a flare suddenly shot up into the sky.
“Attack!”
Soon after, the earth rumbled as shouts and footsteps filled the air.
The troops lying in ambush barely had time to react when they realized people were closing in on them from both sides.
No one had foreseen that they’d be the ones falling into a trap and becoming sitting ducks.
Needless to say, a sinking feeling of panic quickly swept over them.
Limingford Mountain was a treacherous terrain with no escape routes in the east and west.
And now that The Cardinal Hall reinforcements were approaching from the north and south, the troops were trapped, leaving them no choice but to retaliate.
Alas, they had been caught off guard by the sudden attack and suffered severe casualties.
Furthermore, it wasn’t Craig’s battalion that they were up against, but Super Fighters led by the terrifyingly powerful Gabriel and Eustace.
Painful screams and wails reverberated off the mountain cliffs as bodies slowly piled up in a river of blood.
Sadly, it was only a matter of time before Lab of Gods’ troops would all perish on Limingford Mountain.
Meanwhile, back at Lab of Gods, they had just informed their undercover agents to wait for the attack signal.
Of course, they had no clue that those troops had already gotten wiped out.
“All right, let the Leviathans attack!”
With that, the Leviathans began to charge toward Craig.
Craig and his battalion stood their ground, ready to fight till the end.
All of a sudden, a figure emerged.
“If you want to pass through here, you’ll have to get my permission!”
