Chapter 2683 Exposed
Naturally, many people were in favor of the plan.
Taking a detour was too time-consuming, and the shortcut through Limingford Mountain
would cut their journey time by half.
To their surprise, the divine generals merely burst out laughing.
Eskild and Gerhard suddenly felt a chill running down their spines.
There was something amiss, and they could feel it in their bones.
The rest of the troops, however, were more confused than ever.
“So, you guys want to cut through Limingford Mountain? Even though it’s crawling with
enemies lying in ambush?” DG Leo scoffed. “Those enemies are ready to swallow us whole
once we cross their path!”
The news had come like a bolt out of the blue, leaving everyone shell-shocked.
But the most terrified of them all, without a doubt, were the spies in Carigrey Academy.
What? Why does The Cardinal Hall know about the ambush at Limingford Mountain? That’s
impossible! What gave it away?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNo matter how much they racked their brains, nobody could wrap their heads around it.
Nothing seemed out of place for The Cardinal Hall reinforcement troops, so how did things
change so abruptly?
“DG Leo, how did you find out about the enemies hiding in Limingford Mountain?”
Almost immediately, Eskild and Gerhard could feel someone staring in their direction.
“Well, you’ll have to ask them!” DG Leo replied with a chuckle.
The rest of the troops followed his gaze, and soon, all eyes were on the spies.
Unfortunately, that did nothing to clear up their confusion.
After all, no one had known a thing about spies planted among them.
Zoey and the others felt their jaws drop when the realization finally dawned on them.
There had been undercover agents amongst them this entire time, but they were none the
wiser!
“That’s right! Our enemies’ spies had infiltrated us ever since we started Carigrey
Academy!” DG Leo thundered.
“They were also the ones who stole the divine tool, not Crown King! Those shameless
scumbags pinned the blame on him!”
Knowing their jig was up, the spies closed their eyes in despair.
Alas, everyone else was left dumbfounded by the revelations.
Now that they knew the spies had framed Levi, they could only imagine how much he had
to put up with people reprimanding and mocking him.
Zoey and the others instantly felt the guilt eating at them, especially since they had also
believed the accusations and lost their temper at Levi.
DG Leo glared at Eskild. “Guess what, Eskild? You were the first to give yourself away. You
were so eager to get close to the chancellor and vice-chancellor that you quit being Crown
King’s student. Isn’t that right?”
Eskild broke into a cold sweat.
Sh*t. They’ve known about me all this time!
“And I know you aren’t alone in this! There’s also Gerhard, Malthe…”
As DG Leo went on to list out the names of the spies, fighters from The Cardinal Hall and
Eragon quickly took them down so they wouldn’t escape or send a tip-off.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“So you’ve known about us right from the start and have just been playing along with us?”
Malthe whimpered, clearly scared out of his wits.
Who’d have thought that Erudia had such a trick up their sleeve that even Lab of Gods
had fallen prey to them?
“Of course!” DG Leo answered with a smirk. “Why do you think we started Carigrey
Academy? We did it all for you!”
“What? Does that mean you deliberately let us carry out our plans? Was everything under
your control this whole time?”
The spies had become so frightened at that point that they nearly pissed their pants out of
fear.
“Exactly! While you were investigating us, we were doing the same to you. Thanks to that,
we managed to gather some clues.”
“So from the moment we set off, you already knew that we were constantly sharing our
location?” Malthe asked.
