Chapter 3475 The Scheme Of Solocus
“Uh…” Solocus and the rest were stumped.
It was likely the organization would have to suffer a great loss if they agreed to the battle.
There might be a possibility that Levi would still be alive even after they sacrifice everyone there!
Indeed, a fight would make them feel better and allow them to rid of the disgrace.
Alas, it was too heavy of a price to pay.
Solocus would have to watch as the Ecclesiastic Order got wiped out of existence under his command.
However, if they refused to take up the challenge, both the Ecclesiastic Order and the Holy Guild would be nailed to the pillar of shame.
That would be their most humiliating day ever!
A reprobate from the outside world had forced them into submission.
How would they explain to the higher-ups of the Ecclesiastic Order and Minister?
In fact, the Ecclesiastic Order’s dignity would be destroyed in their hands.
What should we do? Should we accept his challenge? Look at how Levi is provoking us arrogantly!
“Don’t back down. Come, take my life. I shall give you a chance to do that!” Levi continued taunting.
Everyone else turned to look at Solocus.
They were waiting for his order.
Once he relayed his order, the elites of the Ecclesiastic Order would charge toward Levi.
They would never stop until their lives perish.
Of course, there were some who hoped a fight wouldn’t ensue, for they feared Levi.
They would never dare to face Levi in a fight.
Thus, they were of the opinion that the battle shouldn’t begin.
It was safe to say that almost ninety percent of the members didn’t want to take up Levi’s challenge.
Only a selected few who loved fighting wanted to take up his challenge.
Thus, everyone stared at Solocus intently, waiting for his decision.
As no one took action, Levi snickered icily. “If you aren’t going to fight, I shall leave now.”
He then marched away in a haughty manner.
Despite having countless members, the Ecclesiastic Order didn’t dare to stop him from leaving.
They could only watch as he left them.
The members were waiting for Solocus’ order, but the latter didn’t say a word.
Solocus didn’t utter a word for a long time.
Slowly, Levi’s figure disappeared from sight.
By then, Solocus still remained silent.
We’re doomed.
Everyone was utterly dejected.
The battle didn’t take place, and the Ecclesiastic Order was going to get nailed to the pillar of shame.
That was unavoidable.
In the end, they remained rooted to their spots and did nothing as Levi left the place.
Despite having insulted and humiliated them, Levi got to leave without a scratch.
“Master Solocus, please give us your orders!”
“Let us take his life!”
“We’re not afraid of dying as long as we get to preserve the Ecclesiastic Order’s dignity!”
Those who loved fighting immediately pleaded.
They were prepared to start a fight.
In fact, many hypocrites also joined in and asked to start a battle.
When Levi was here, they were so afraid that their legs were shaking.
Now that he was no longer here, they returned to their usual arrogant selves.
“No! I’m not confident at all. There’s no way I’ll start a fight without being confident that I’ll win it!” Solocus answered.
Hearing that, the crowd became quiet.
Indeed, no one was sure that they would defeat Levi.
He was their greatest fear ever.
If we cower back out of fear, what about the Ecclesiastic Order’s dignity?
They had humiliated their elders.
The Ecclesiastic Order would never be able to show its face in the world anymore, for it was afraid of a mere reprobate.
They used to be on the top of the hierarchy but were now disgraced by a reprobate.
“It was all my fault. I didn’t dare give any orders as I was terrified of Levi. I was afraid the Ecclesiastic Order would perish in his hands if we were to accept his challenge,” Solocus admitted.
He took all the blame upon himself.
Nevertheless, his actions only served to increase everyone’s trust in him.
He was born to be a leader.
It was a defeat, a humiliating incident, but Solocus was smart enough to use it to gain everyone’s trust and loyalty.
Right then, everyone gazed at him earnestly.
Solocus’ lips curled into a devious smile discreetly.
Obviously, he had done this on purpose.
