Chapter 3687 Levi Is Acting Weird
Zoey and Forlevia had dived into the final stretch of preparation since the news about the three parties allying against Levi reached the base.
It was a moment of unprecedented stress for almost everyone at the base. No one smiled like they used to, and many were pessimistic about the outcome of the impending war.
On the contrary, the recently-returned Levi seemed unusually relaxed, so much so that people started gossiping among themselves. “It seems like Boss is losing it. I guess he’s also at his wit’s end. He’s acting calm to ease the tension here,” someone said.
“I wonder why Boss refused to work with Bluesky Sect last time,” someone else chimed in. “I know, right? Boss has always been bold and decisive. Since when did he become so timid?”
“The Levi I know is someone who would rather die standing than on his knees.” Zoey was not surprised when she heard remarks like this, for she, too, had realized that Levi was not himself.
Not only that, she realized that those who returned to the base the day before, including Bruno and Wynona, all looked at ease as well.
“Levi, you should at least come up with a plan to tackle the alliance’s army,” Zoey said to Levi after she found him. She saw the need to remind Levi of what he needed to do.
After all, the upcoming war concerned the lives of everyone at the base, many of who were Levi’s friends and family.
Even if they were not related to him, they were his loyal subordinates.
“Don’t worry about it. I know what I’m doing,” he replied with a smile.
“But Thundera has a lot of elites with him this time. We’re definitely no match for them. You—”
“Zoey, there will be a way out for us. You have nothing to worry about,” Levi interrupted before she finished.
“W-Well, if you say so.”
Seeing Levi’s unperturbed expression, Zoey sighed and accepted that there was nothing she could do to change his mind.
Still, Zoey felt unsettled, for she did not want Levi to underestimate their enemy and end up causing an irreversible tragedy, so she solicited help elsewhere.
I need someone else to nudge Levi into doing something.
Levi smiled as he watched Zoey walk away.
It went without saying that he knew what Zoey was thinking, but Levi’s ability had reached a new height after he metamorphosed using the last holy ley line.
Hence, he had no qualms about facing the alliance of the two sects from Kenfort.
“Mia, you should persuade Levi to do something. The enemy’s not as weak as he thinks. There are so many elites in the alliance this time. We can’t afford any accidents. I reminded him just now, but he turned a deaf ear to my advice,” Zoey complained in resignation.
“Zoey, Levi never gets involved in a confrontation that he has no confidence in winning. Since he believes that we’re not in dire straits, I’m sure he must already have a plan in mind,” Mia assured, smiling.
Levi had given strict orders to keep his cultivation trip a secret from the public so the news would not leak to the Glorian Order and Thundera.
He wanted to catch them by surprise, but still, Mia gave Zoey a hint.
“I hope he really does have a plan up his sleeve,” Zoey commented with a sigh and left.
To her, Mia’s confidence in Levi was unfounded.
Things are already this serious. Even if Levi has a plan, he shouldn’t act so nonchalantly.
After that, Zoey went to look for Wynona to convince her to talk to Levi, yet Wynona’s reaction was more or less the same as Mia’s.
Even Bruno, who was usually vigilant and low-profile, acted the same way. He comforted Zoey and asked her to believe in Levi.
“What’s wrong with all of them?” Zoey asked herself.
