Chapter 688 James continued, “Once the real battle begins, it won’t end that easily. The Black Dragon army will
simply cross Mt. Thunder Pass and annihilate the twenty-eight nations.”
James’ every word struck fear in Pablo’s heart. Hearing that the twenty-eight nations could be annihilated in the
blink of an eye, he could not help but tremble. “I-I will give the order to retreat.” Pablo knew that their mission to kill
the Black Dragon had failed. He also knew that the Black Dragon would not hesitate to kill him if he chose not to
obey his order. Besides, once large-scale combat between the three-million-strong army and the Black Dragon
army commenced, it would be bloody and hard-fought. In the surveillance room…
Upon seeing this, a smile broke out on the faces of May and the other assassins. “We’ve done it!” “Yes. We can now
leave this place alive.” “Huh… Sneaking into Southern Plains City where a three-million-strong army is garrisoned
and assassinating the generals of the twenty-eight nations? That’s definitely something worth bragging about. What
a shame I won’t be an assassin anymore. This would have done wonders for my reputation.”

“Alright now, wipe off the sweat on your forehead. Follow me to central command.” “Alright.” Pablo stood up and
followed James to central command.
Many soldiers were on patrol downstairs.
They were not aware of the situation in the conference room. “General.”
Upon seeing Pablo, they greeted him respectfully. Pablo remained silent. Soon, they arrived. Little Sis, Grim Reaper,
and Savage were the ones who seized control of central command. “James.” They greeted him
James walked over to them and patted their shoulders. He praised them, “Well done, guys. You’ll be greatly
rewarded.” “Thank you, James.” James looked at Pablo and said, “Give the order to retreat.”
Pablo walked toward a mic in central command and said, “On my command, the allied forces of the twenty-eight
nations will retreat from Southern Plains City and leave Sol at once.” The lieutenants all received the order. “Pass
the word. We’re retreating.” “Retreat! Retreat! We’re leaving Southern Plains City.”
The lieutenants gave the order to withdraw. With that, the army garrisoned within and outside Southern Plains City
hastily retreated. Even the armed forces within the military region withdrew from the area. Pablo looked at James
pleadingly, “I-I’ve given the order to retreat. M-May I leave now?”
“Leave?”

James snickered. “Of course, you may. However, the twenty-eight nations have made a rather big commotion this
time, and the world has been watching the situation here intently. Since I’ve magnanimously let the allied forces go,
shouldn’t you show some gratitude? Otherwise, I’d look like the biggest fool in the world.” “Wh-What do you want?”
Pablo unconsciously took a few steps back. James waved him away. “Return for now. Sol will soon send envoys to
the twenty-eight nations to discuss war reparations.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJames’ implications struck further terror into Pablo.
He knew that the twenty-eight nations would have to pay an astronomical figure this time.
He still did not understand James’ motivations behind this.
“I-Is it money that you’re after?”
“Money?”
James chuckled. “Do you think money will solve the problem? Though you’ve been driven back time and time again,
you continued to encroach on the territory of Sol. I’ll have to teach you a lesson this time. Cede your territory to us.
Every country will have to offer up five cities to Sol. Only then will we let you off the hook.”
James face then became grim.
“Otherwise, the Black Dragon army will cross Mt, Thunder Pass. We’ll attack the twenty nations and forcibly annex
the territories into Sol.”
