Lucifer furrowed his brows. “The Southern Faction will launch a sneak attack against us? Why would they do that for
no reason? Mr. Williams, do you have evidence to prove that?”
Zeke nodded. “Of course I do. Just do as I say.”
Lucifer had complete faith in Zeke, so he instantly agreed. “I understand, Mr. Williams. I'll make sure to reinforce
the perimeter of our base with more personnel.”
Zeke reminded him, “Lucifer, remember to tell the guards at the perimeter to not stop the enemies from
advancing. If they encounter the enemies attempting to breach the perimeter, they should immediately retreat and
lure the enemies back to the base.”
Huh?
Confused, Lucifer asked, “Mr. Williams, why do we want to lure our enemies to the base? I don't understand how
this will be advantageous to us if we were to fight against them on our base. Even if we win, our base will be
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdestroyed. The cost would be too high. I think we should go to battle with them away from our base.”
Zeke responded, “Just do as I say. Don't ask questions.”
Lucifer dared not defy Zeke's orders and nodded profusely. “Got it. I'll go make the arrangements now.”
After he left, Zeke looked out of the window in Theos Island's direction.
The tranquil atmosphere of Theos Island was deceptive as a fierce tempest was gathering strength on the horizon.
All signs pointed to an impending uproar that would soon rock the island to its very core.
At the border of the Southern Faction and Northern Faction, a bunch of people were glancing around, taking great
care not to arouse any suspicion. They were being extremely cautious, making sure that they were not discovered.
After ascertaining that there was no one in sight at the buffer zone, they whistled out loud.
Before long, their shrill whistles caught the attention of many more people, and soon a crowd of nine hundred men
assembled.
These were part of Northern Faction's Centuria.
Their leader was the ten Centurions, with the most senior of them, Golden Cicada, at the helm.
Sebastian spoke cautiously to emphasize the gravity of the situation. “Commander Golden Cicada, if you decide to
proceed, it will be a point of no return. We will be crossing over into the turf of the Southern Faction, and once we
do, confrontation is unavoidable. Are you certain that you are prepared to enter into battle with them?”
Golden Cicada nodded firmly. “The Southern Faction went overboard by killing so many of our comrades. We were
lucky enough to survive, but we can't allow them to make a mockery of us. Not to mention, their plans for
obliterating the Centuria make it clear that they are ready to go to war. If we simply sit back and take their
aggression, they won't show us any mercy and will continue to attack us. It's better to take the initiative and launch
a pre-emptive strike!”
Everyone nodded thoughtfully. “Yes, you're right!”
However, some people didn't share his sentiments. “Commander Golden Cicada, the Northern Faction used to be
on par with the Southern Faction. As your Centuria had been wiped out, I'm afraid we're no longer as powerful as
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe Southern Faction. If a battle is to ensue, we'll be at a disadvantage.”
Golden Cicada frowned unhappily. “Why? Are you too afraid to go to battle? Are you going to ignore our comrades
who had sacrificed their lives?”
The person hastily explained, “Commander Golden Cicada, I apologize for my miscommunication. That is not what I
intended to say. What I meant to express is that we should take caution before making any decisions. It is important
to devise a plan before engaging in battle in order to maximize our prospects for success and minimize our losses.”
Golden Cicada replied, “That was what I thought too, but we don't have a lot of time. Besides, we're not going to
battle alone. There is also a strong force on our side.”
Oh?
Everyone's curiosity was piqued. “Commander Golden Cicada, who could that be?”
Golden Cicada answered, “The person is extremely capable but mysterious. He refused to let me reveal his identity.
Hmm, how should I describe his strength? Oh, I know. You know that the Southern Faction recently got a new
commander, right?”
Everyone bobbed their heads. “Yes. We heard that the new commander's name is Zeke Williams.”
