Northern King exploded in rage. What? Do Centurias want to create a divine weapon to free themselves of Legatus'
control? And they even want to kill Legatus?
Northern King could no longer stand such humiliation. I'll tolerate them no more! Centuria has just dug its own
grave!
He slammed his palm on the table and exclaimed, “Where's Northern Faction's Suicide Squad?”
“We're here, Northern Master!” A group of men beside him bowed before him. “We're here awaiting your orders!”
Northern King gritted his teeth and said, “Centuria is plotting a rebellion, and I'll never forgive them for committing
such an outrageous act! I want you to destroy Dragon King from Southern Faction and Golden Cicada from
Northern Faction!”
“Understood!” the men roared in response.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen Suicide Squad was about to begin the mission, Johnny stopped them from leaving. “Hold on! Calm down!”
He turned to Northern King and said, “Northern Master, we mustn't be reckless.”
Northern King knitted his brows and looked at Johnny. “Do you have other ideas in mind?”
Johnny replied, “Can we talk in private, Northern Master?”
After a moment of contemplation, Northern King nodded. “All right. I'll give you two minutes.”
Northern King brought Johnny to his bedroom. “Spit it out. Don't waste my time.”
Johnny said, “Northern Master, how much do you know about the new leader of Centuria?”
Northern King shook his head. “Nothing. I just learned that they had appointed a new leader.”
Johnny bobbed his head in response. “I suppose you have no idea how powerful that person is?”
“Of course not. But he's just a Centurion. Do you think he can be more powerful than a Legatus?” Northern King
replied.
Johnny said, “We shouldn't underestimate the new leader, Northern Master.”
Northern King frowned. “You mean he might be more powerful than a Legatus? What makes you think so since you
haven't gone to Southern Faction to meet the new leader?”
“It's based on my analysis,” Johnny answered, “When I was at Centuria's base in Northern Faction, I noticed not
many people were killed. And it didn't seem they had had an intense fight before that. I suspect Golden Cicada was
so impressed with Zeke's power that he submitted himself to Zeke. That might be why he led Northern Faction's
Centuria to pledge their allegiance to him. Perhaps, Golden Cicada was willing to surrender to Zeke because he
believed Zeke was more powerful than you. Aligning himself with Zeke would benefit him in the long run.”
Upon hearing his analysis, Northern King gasped. If what he said is true, Legion's base would be in grave danger!
Who on earth is that new leader? Does that mean he's more powerful than a Legatus? Could he be a Camp Master?
D*mn it! He better not be one of the Camp Masters I bumped into at the primeval forest.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNorthern King was worried that Legion would have no choice but to submit to Zeke. I must check with Speedy to
find out what the new leader looks like and if he's one of the three Camp Masters.
Johnny continued, “Even if my analysis is wrong, and the new leader is not as powerful as you are, he's still not
someone we should take lightly. If we insist on killing him, I foresee dire consequences coming along. Legion from
Southern Faction had been watching us for some time but couldn't find a chance to take us down. If our men suffer
a heavy blow during this critical period, they might come at us!”
Northern King nodded in agreement. “That made sense. But does that mean we should sit here and do nothing?
What if they come after us after forging the divine weapon?”
Johnny shook his head. “Of course not. We must do something. All we need to do is play both ends against the
middle.”
Northern King processed his words for a moment before giving him a surprised look. “You mean we instruct Legion
from Southern Faction to launch an attack on Southern Faction's Centuria?”
Johnny nodded. “That's right.”
