I am a quadrillionarire chapter 2642-Once the guards were exhausted, who would fight the enemy?
As the leader of this escort mission, Captain Himmel quickly realized the enemy’s ploy.
They were using the Soul Fracturing Arrows to tire everyone. Once they were physically drained, the enemy would easily win this battle and it would end in bloodshed.
Very clever of them!!!
A cold look flashed in Captain Himmel’s eyes.
The enemy had money.
Soul Fracturing Arrows were expensive weapons.
Each arrow cost a lot of money.
Moreover, every arrow could only be used once.
Hundreds of them were probably used in just a short while!
It looked like the enemy had pumped a lot of money into this to ensure they did not stand a chance.
A normal robber would not be able to afford a weapon like the Soul Fracturing Arrow.
Whoever was attacking must be someone of status.
Captain Himmel knew that this situation could not continue.
They had maintained the array for only a while.
That had exhausted 10% of their energy.
If this continued…
It would not be long before everyone’s energy was depleted and the array would disappear.
When that happened, they would not even have the chance to fight. They would be like fish in a barrel.
“Listen to me, everyone. The enemy this time is someone you should not underestimate. They are different from those we have faced before. These people have poured in a lot of money. They are using the Soul Fracturing Arrows like they are nothing. Hundreds of those arrows have been shot at us. I have a feeling they won’t stop there. They plan to use the Soul Fracturing Arrows to exhaust us physically. Once our energy is depleted, we will be easily annihilated,” Captain Himmel said loudly.
Everyone heard what he said.
The guards began to tense up.
If what Captain Himmel said was true, it would be terrible.
“What should we do, Captain Himmel?” someone asked.
“The only way out of this is to stop the array and fight the enemy to the death. We might have a surviving chance this way,” Captain Himmel replied.
“But we have no idea of what the enemy’s combat skills are like. Wouldn’t it be even more dangerous to risk ourselves out there?”
“If the enemy is willing to invest so much into using Soul Fracturing arrows to exhaust our energy, it means that they are afraid of going head-to-head with us, which is why they came up with such a plan. We can’t be sitting ducks in here. If we exhaust our energy, we won’t even have the chance to fight back,” Captain Himmel explained loudly.
Ding, ding, ding…
Those in the array began discussing a plan.
The arrows continued hitting the light screen from the outside.
There was no sign of the Soul Fracturing Arrows slowing down.
“I think it would be best to play it safe. I don’t believe the enemy would have so many Soul Fracturing Arrows. They have used almost thousands of them. Once they have used up the Soul Fracturing Arrows, the normal arrows they have left won’t be able to hurt us at all, and it won’t affect our energy.” The one offering a different opinion was one of the deputy captains of the guards.
This involved their safety.
Everyone was forced to consider their options carefully.
They were hoping to stand their ground until the enemy had used up all of their Soul Fracturing Arrows.
That way, they would be able to rotate amongst themselves to conserve their energy and maintain the array.
Without impactful capabilities, no one could destroy this array’s defense.
Some of the guards supported Captain Himmel while others supported the deputy captain.
Everyone had their own opinions.
Each had their reasons.
After all, everyone has different characteristics.
Some were open to risk, while others preferred certainty.
Captain Himmel was unable to make the ultimate decision at that moment.
He might be captain of the guards but this does not mean he could decide the life and death of others.
The consequence would be disastrous if he made the wrong move.
“Since our opinions differ and we aren’t able to come to a consensus, let’s ask for the opinion of Madam. We’ll do whatever Madam says,” said Captain Himmel.
“Agreed!!!”
“Agreed!!!”
“I have no opinions against this!!!”
The dozens of guards shouted out one after the other.
Even if the guards had come to a consensus, they would still need the agreement of the madam to go ahead with it.
After all, whoever was inside the luxury carriage was the legitimate decision-maker.
