Chapter 702 Top Secret Beheading Operation

“Even if Tom recognizes them, it doesn’t matter. They can’t find the whereabouts of Skyarch Palace,”

Zane said.

“The intelligence network of Task Force Rose is extensive. As long as there’s a clue, they’ll conduct a

widespread search.

“If they find out that Skyarch Palace is connected to us, Lord Caspian will definitely know about it. We’ll

be accused of rebellion, and then we’ll have no way to defend ourselves. Our entire family may be

doomed,” Jerry said solemnly.

“Dad, don’t scare me. Is it really that serious? What should we do, then?” Zane was frightened and at a

loss.

“You were too careless. I have no idea what to do either.” Jerry shook his head)

“How could I have known that Task Force Rose would be around Tom? If I had known, I would’ve sent

innate grandmasters over!” Zane retorted.

“It’s too late to say anything now. We can only hope Tom didn’t recognize Wyatt and Lanson,” Jerry

said.

“How about this? I’ll send some innate grandmasters to take care of Tom. This way, we don’t have to

worry anymore,” Zane suggested.

“It’s too late now. Sending people over won’t help. Besides, Task Force Rose will definitely send more

people to protect Tom. If we send people now, it’ll be like walking into a trap,” Jerry said.

“Then let’s launch a coup tonight!” Zane gritted his teeth.

“We can’t. The King is going to meet the Five War Gods. They’ll all be by Hist Majesty’s side. If we act

now, it’s suicide,” Jerry said.

“What should we do, then? We can’t just sit and wait for death.” Zane was now completely out of ideas.

“We can only wait. Send people to monitor Task Force Rose’s activities. We’ll react accordingly if they

make any moves,” Jerry replied.

“Alright, I’ll send someone now,” Zane said.

The next day, Caspian received a call from Laina the moment he woke up.

He knew that Laina must have something important to report to him.

“What is it, Laina?” he asked.

“Lord Caspian, someone tried to kill Tom last night,” Laina said.

“Is he alright?” Caspian asked.

Tom had helped him before, so he was very concerned about his safety.

“He’s fine. I happened to visit Aria yesterday and encountered the two assassins. We killed them both,”

Laina said.

“Why would someone want to harm Tom?” Caspian asked, puzzled.

“Tom is the son of Greenton’s leader from West City. But Greenton was wiped out, and he managed to

escape. Now, the other party wants to silence him,” Laina replied.

“Greenton? What does that have to do with anything?” Caspian was now completely confused.

Laina then reported everything she knew to Caspian.

After listening, he had a general understanding.

“Skyarch Palace has recruited many martial artists. Anyone who doesn’t comply with them will be

killed. They may have some secrets,” Laina said.

“Do everything you can to find this Skyarch Palace. Get to the bottom of this,” Caspian ordered.

“Okay,” Laina replied.

“Also, send more people to protect Tom. Don’t let anything happen to him,” Caspian instructed.

“Yes, Lord Caspian.”

Then Caspian hung up the phone. He had to go and meet Balthazar next.

Caspian went to the King’s residence in Dhord City with the other four War Gods to meet Balthazar.

This was a top–level meeting in Diatoran.

The meeting was only attended by Balthazar and the Five War Gods.

“War Gods, four countries launched attacks on Diatoran this time, but we defeated them all. This battle

has caused heavy losses for Diatoran.

“However, these countries have shown no remorse and are unwilling to compensate. I called everyone

here today to discuss what Diatoran should do next,” Balthazar stated.

“Your Majesty, I believe we should capitalize on our victory and launch a military campaign to increase

Diatoran’s prestige,” the Champion of East Aridlands, Keith, said.

“I agree, Your Majesty. We must make them acknowledge our strength,” the Champion of North

Aridlands, Benjamin, spoke up as well.

“Since they started it first, we must retaliate,” the Champion of Central Plains, Joseph, said.

“Your Majesty, as you said in the rally before, we must make Vadesia, Astronia, Filren, and Estrya pay

the price. They started the trouble, but now they show no remorse. If we don’t make them suffer a bit,

it’ll make Diatoran look bad,” the Champion of West Aridlands, Dax, suggested.

“Well said, all four of you.” Balthazar applauded as four of the War Gods agreed to launch a military

campaign.

This time, Balthazar invited only the Five War Gods to the meeting for a reason. If other high–ranking

officials held opposing views, it would make the situation complicated. But Balthazar knew that the Five

War Gods were all courageous individuals, and they would definitely agree to send troops.

This meeting was of the highest level. The person responsible for documenting the meeting was

omitted as well.

Now, only the Diatoranian God of War, Caspian, had not yet expressed his opinion.

“Caspian, what are your thoughts on this?” Balthazar looked at Caspian and asked.

“Your Majesty, I believe that once we start a war, many people will suffer. Our expedition will be

detrimental to the people,” Caspian replied.

Balthazar and the other four War Gods were surprised that Caspian held

opposing views.

“Caspian, casualties are inevitable in war. I’m thinking about the future of Diatoran. Only by eliminating

those belligerent opponents can we achieve long- term development peacefully,” Balthazar said.

“I understand Your Majesty’s desire to expand our territory through this opportunity, but I believe this

isn’t the right time. An expedition is a waste of manpower and resources,” Caspian expressed his

opinion.

“Do you have any better ideas?” Balthazar asked.

“I believe that winning without going to battle is the best strategy,” Caspian said. “How is that possible?”

Balthazar was puzzled.

“Cut off the head of the snake and the body will die. We can carry out a beheading operation,” Caspian

voiced his thoughts.

This was the safest, least costly plan he could come up with.

Upon hearing this, Balthazar and the other four War Gods were stunned.

“As long as we can assassinate their higher–ups, they’ll be leaderless and will definitely surrender to

us. If they resist stubbornly, we can still send troops later,

Caspian continued.

“This is a genius plan, Caspian, but it seems to be a difficult one too. Their higher -ups must have

guards protecting them. It’s not easy to assassinate them,” Balthazar expressed his concern.

“I can’t be certain, but this plan is definitely the one with the least losses. We can only take this gamble

for the big picture,” Caspian said.
