Chapter 2741 Change The Commander
“So that was what happened! Even though the Erudia army was retreating at first, they changed their tactic and fought against us instead. They were even harassing us in front just now. Their objective was to evacuate Jipsdale!”
The Lab of Gods quickly understood.
They were merely guarding an empty city that was of no use to them.
They couldn’t use it to intimidate anyone!
Even though they were outraged by that, there was nothing they could do.
“Continue our attack! As long as we manage to pass through Jipsdale, it would be much easier for us to attack! Charge!”
Levi and the others were deep in discussion at the tenth defense barrier when they suddenly received news that the Lab of Gods’ army was charging over.
The enemy was advancing much faster than they had expected!
Everyone looked toward Levi, expecting him to order a retreat.
“Commander, please think of something! We can’t just keep retreating! We need to think of a more effective way to deal with it!”
“That’s right! We are already at the tenth defense barrier! The defense barriers in front were safe as they were situated on the ocean. However, our countries would be affected if we retreat further. That would mean giving up on one allied power for each defense barrier we retreat to!”
“Even though we managed to successfully evacuate Jipsdale, we can’t possibly do the same to dozens of other countries, right? Where can we possibly evacuate everyone to?”
Everyone began discussing among themselves.
Indeed, even though Levi did come up with some good ideas, they were just temporarily useful and not enough to hold the enemy back forever.
Their enemy was simply too strong.
Furthermore, Levi had already run out of ideas, and the only thing the army could do was to retreat.
That struck fear in everyone’s hearts.
Most of the men were starting to feel that Levi was not good enough to take the position of commander.
Even though Levi was indeed capable, he was unable to come up with solutions during crucial moments.
As such, perhaps changing the commander would be a better choice.
In fact, that was what the majority of the men wanted.
Meanwhile, Levi had a deep crease between his brows as he continued thinking of a solution.
He was wondering how they could get Sacroria to show up.
Judging by the current situation, unless the Lab of Gods suffered a huge blow or the enemy’s army was completely defeated, it was impossible for Sacroria to take action.
Levi understood that if he did not step up and show their trump card, it would be extremely difficult to defeat the Lab of Gods.
Even if they gathered all members of the alliance, it would still be useless, and most of them would end up sacrificing their lives.
However, the situation might change if Zarain joined their alliance.
Levi knew that Zarain had powerful forces, even though he was not sure of the extent of it.
However, Zarain had made a clear stance that the country would neither surrender nor join any alliances.
Since getting help from Zarain was not possible, Levi had to think of other options.
But since he was unable to come up with any good ideas yet, he could only order his troops to retreat when faced with the Lab of Gods’ army.
Levi had considered the situation much more thoroughly than the others.
No doubt, the only way to defeat the Lab of Gods was to follow Levi’s lead.
Apart from Levi, no one else knew how the Lab of Gods was structured and that the true power of the Lab of Gods lay in Sacroria.
“Commander, have you thought of a solution yet? Are we really just going to continue retreating?”
“Exactly! Should we just gather all our forces and face them head-on?”
Everyone fixed their gazes on Levi, waiting for his reply.
“Retreat! We will just leave some troops behind to try and deplete the enemy’s energy and resources! We will also bury some landmines underground at our defense barrier so that they would explode when the Lab of Gods’ army arrive!”
Levi gave his orders.
When everyone heard the word “retreat”, looks of disappointment appeared on their faces.
They had given Levi repeated chances to come up with a way. However, although the troops were already at the tenth defense barrier, the man was still unable to think of a solution.
All the army was doing was retreating.
Because of that, everyone was starting to lose confidence in Levi.
The lieutenants quickly gathered everyone and discussed privately.
“Should we suggest changing the commander? It seems like Levi is not fit for the task!”
