    Chapter 2680 Undercover In Erudia


    As it turned out, the real mastermind was Shield all along, and not even Lab of Gods could’ve expected


    that.


    ck Hawk gulped as he stared at Smythe. “Are you saying it’s…”


    “Yes! You’re exactly right!” thetter interrupted with a smile.


    “The truth is, we had known about it ever since Lab of Gods disappeared. They were the ones


    responsible for all these years of turmoil! Haven’t you noticed how Zarain has been lying low this whole


    time? It almost felt like we’ve isted ourselves from the rest of the world.”


    Upon hearing that, ck Hawk finally started to connect the dots.


    “That’s because we were developing ourselves while monitoring Lab of Gods’ activities! We’ve been


    lying in wait for them!” Smythe added.


    “I got it,” ck Hawk replied with a solemn nod. “It’s all clear to me now!”


    Smythe then leaned into his ear and whispered, “Well, let me tell you another secret about Zarain…”


    “W-What?” ck Hawk sputtered, eyes wide with disbelief as he listened intently.


    Even after hearing what Smythe had to share, ck Hawk remained in a stunned daze.


    He was, however, majorly relieved that he hadn’t revealed the true extent of Levi’s power.


    I shall keep that tidbit to myself for now. Who knows? I could very well use that to my advantage in the


    future!


    Smythe’s lips curled into a menacing smile. “So you see… All we need to do now is sit back and enjoy


    the show!”


    Meanwhile, the troops that Craig was waiting for had gotten caught in a pickle of their own.


    On top of having their roads blocked, their air support had also been interfered with and attacked.


    Because of that, Nichs’ troops had no choice but to take a detour, which only further dyed them


    from providing backup to Craig.


    The worst part of all, though, was that the Death Harbingers were everywhere and impossible to shake


    off.


    As much as Craig wanted to fight them back, it was difficult when he didn’t know where they were


    hiding.


    Progress was excruciatingly slow, and the air support and transportation teams that had started to


    trickle in were hardly enough.


    Having run out of options, Craig and his troops decided to retreat


    However, as luck would have it, they soon ended up in what used to be South Warzone’s training base.


    The base was well-equipped, which gave them the natural advantage they sorely needed.


    Craig was sure they could hold down the fort, but at the same time, another problem had arisen.


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    While stationing themselves at the training base could stop the Death Harbingers from advancing to the


    north, it had left the south open and vulnerable to attacks.


    Therefore, Craig had specifically requested reinforcements to assist the southern defense barrier.


    Any avable troops were to make their way to the south immediately, for if any of the barriers fell, all


    hell would break loose.


    Craig and his troops, on the other hand, would have to guard the north with their lives.


    “This is thest gateway to the north, men! We can’t retreat any further! We’re thest line of defense,


    and we have to stand our ground even if it means perishing here!” he ordered, preparing his troops for


    the worst.


    If the Leviathans wanted to break through the barrier, they’d have to do so over their dead bodies.


    News about Craig’s valiant defense of the north soon reached Lab of Gods.


    Their initial strategy had been to send eight hundred Leviathans northward, but with Craig putting up


    such a strong line of defense, they knew they’d be in for a fight.


    “Why hasn’t Restricted Area 76 made its move? What are they still waiting for?”


    “Are they afraid that Erudia might have a card up its sleeve? Perhaps we haven’t given them enough


    incentive to take action!”


    “We’ll have to destroy Craig and his troops if we want Erudia to copse. Only then will Restricted Area


    76 join in the attack!”


    After giving it some thought, Mr. X finally spoke up. “All right, it’s time to activate our undercover agents


    in Erudia. We’ll attack Craig from both sides!”
