Chapter 3710 A True Man
“You were willing to destroy your family for me. There aren’t a lot of people in this world who can do that. That’s what makes you a true man. Don’t forget you’re currently the sole supporting pillar of the base. If you fall, the morale of the people on the base will crumble even faster.” As Gloria continued to comfort Floyd, he gradually calmed down.
“Do you really think that, Gloria?” Hope shone in his eyes when he asked that. She nodded. “Of course. How can the man I fall in love with be a piece of trash?”
Her words were so sincere that even the ever-observant Levi wouldn’t detect anything wrong with them, let alone Floyd, who was deeply in love with her.
That was because Gloria really did think that. It was just that such a man hadn’t shown up in her life yet.
If even Grant and Hansel were just her stepping stones to reaching greater heights, then Floyd certainly wasn’t the man of her dreams.
“You’re so good to me, Gloria.” Floyd became so emotional that he was close to crying.
The guilt he experienced for the damage he caused to the base was reduced greatly.
“From now on, I’ll do whatever you want me to do to the best of my abilities. Even if I have to make the world my enemy, I’ll still stand by your side unmovingly.” Floyd professed his love, but it only made Gloria feel disgusted again.
Still, she smiled brightly because she was happy that Floyd was completely under her control.
From his perspective, he thought his genuine emotions had moved Gloria.
“What do you think I should do next, Gloria? The people on the base were feeling apprehensive after Evie suddenly left. Even after I tried my best to comfort them, it still didn’t work.” Floyd appeared as though he was at a loss.
Gloria thought about it and said, “This is your best chance to establish your authority and save the day. Once you manage to comfort them, find your best opportunity to kill powerful fighters in the tripartite alliance. That’ll certainly raise the morale of your troops. Not only that, your position in their hearts will be greatly improved. If you can manage to do that, it’s only a matter of time before you can control the entire base. When that happens, no one will dare refuse to let us stay together.”
Upon hearing that, images of him rallying the troops with his arm raised and getting all of them to respond surfaced in his mind.
Floyd remained in his stupor for a long while before he snapped back to his senses.
Then he said resignedly, “But the elites in the tripartite alliance are powerful. I don’t think I can kill them with my current strength. If I only kill a bunch of small fry, I don’t think I can elevate my position in the hearts of the people.”
Gloria remained silent in thought briefly before suggesting, “You don’t need to worry about that. I may still be in the Ecclesiastic Order, but I stand on the same side as you. Thus, I’ll do my best to provide the intel you need. You just need to find the right opportunity to kill the core elites of the Ecclesiastic Order.”
“You’re so nice to me, Gloria!” He was very touched by her gesture.
Smiling prettily, she answered, “Of course I’m nice to you. You’re my man, after all.”
“For your affections, I’m willing to die without hesitation if you tell me to do that right now.” Floyd’s voice sounded emotionally intense.
Gloria wanted to laugh when she saw his teary eyes.
Her plan was to use Floyd to reignite the battle spirit of the people on the base.
Additionally, it would improve his reputation among the people there. It was a plan that would knock out two birds with one stone.
I wonder what kind of expression you’ll make when you learn the truth, Floyd. Ah, Levi. I bet it never crossed your mind that you’ll be taken out by the many factions under my control. Gloria was already eagerly waiting for the day when she would attack the base and crush Levi and his allies under her boot.
