Ch. 2711..2720
Chapter 2711 Courage
Mr. X was stunned to his core.
Lucifer, Jester King, and the others were on the verge of going mad.
They could not work out how the mysterious Dark Web had grasped a piece of information that they had just received from Sacroria.
Lab of Gods had been paying attention to Dark Web early on, but they failed to find out anything.
Since Dark Web did not impede their plan, Lab of Gods did not probe further.
However, things had taken an unanticipated turn because Dark Web appeared to know everything about their organization.
They had to inform Sacroria of Dark Web at once.
Sacroria were also taken aback and began investigating Dark Web as its existence had threatened their plan. In fact, they wanted to get rid of it.
The news released by the Dark web spread like wildfire.
Everyone was made aware of Leviathans’ origin.
A portion of people knew before the announcement, while the rest of the people were kept in the dark.
Even Craig and the others were guessing the origin of Leviathans as the truth remained unascertained.
“Ah? Lab of Gods created Leviathans? Why did I help Erudia in the first place? They should feel grateful that I did not side with Lab of Gods!”
“I can’t believe this. I wouldn’t have helped out Erudia if I had known about this!”
Most of the nations that were not on good terms with Erudia began to regret their decisions of assisting Erudia after they were in the know.
They had come to the rescue in an effort to save themselves because they feared the unknown mastermind that was controlling Leviathans.
Hence, the other nations decided to eliminate the inexplicable threat by joining forces with Erudia in order to prevent themselves from facing the same fate as Erudia in the future.
If they were aware of the truth, they would never have provided aid to Erudia in the battle.
Sharing that sentiment were some neutral forces against Erudia as the country’s downfall would be beneficial to them.
Nonetheless, a few forces that were friendly toward Erudia stood by their stance of supporting Erudia in facing the predicament.
In an instant, the allied army formed in Erudia had fallen apart as reinforcements from foes of Erudia retreated.
They even threatened to disclose all of Erudia’s secrets.
Leaders from Erudia were dumbfounded by the unpredicted outcome as the number of the allied army was reduced to half.
Nevertheless, the situation wasn’t all bad.
Since Lab of Gods was about to resurface and declare war with the whole world, all the nations with a similar stand could still join forces.
As for the foes of Erudia, they were frightened after knowing that Lab of Gods was in control of Leviathans.
They predicted Lab of Gods to be even more terrifying than ever.
After all, no one was able to defeat Leviathans.
Erudia’s enemies wondered if anyone could stop Lab of Gods from conquering the entire world if they unleashed their true power.
Moreover, Lab of Gods appeared to be confident in the tricks they had up their sleeves for having the guts to make such an insolent declaration.
At that moment, a few factions were already formulating a plan to join Lab of Gods to gain benefit from the alliance.
In their opinion, those that surrendered after losing to Lab of Gods would face a terrible fate.
Hence, more and more nations began discussing that matter while others were making the necessary preparations before Lab of Gods launched a worldwide attack.
Following Dark Web’s revelation, Lab of Gods made an official statement, confirming the news and again shocking the whole world.
Levi was surprised after he heard of that matter upon leaving the deep-sea base. “Who gave them the courage to build a country?”
Chapter 2712 It Was All Their Fault
His expression darkened.
The Lab of Gods dares to set itself up as a country and declare war against the world. It means that they were confident about their strength. Ha! I want to beat you all up, but I shall warn you first! You all better get ready! I’ll destroy you!
Levi’s thoughts may seem presumptuous and reckless.
In actuality, he knew what he was capable of.
After all, before he arrived, no one knew what to do about the Leviathans.
They were even more powerless against the core powers of the Lab of Gods.
Sacroria was the scariest of all the core powers.
Now, Levi would have to go head to head with them.
That was precisely what Levi wanted.
Since the Lab of Gods stopped hiding,
Levi believed that he would be meeting Sacroria soon.
However, Levi was still puzzled about something.
Are the Lab of Gods and Zarain not working together? Both of them used to be close, like a single entity. However, that doesn’t seem to be the case now! Each of them is trying to eat up the other.
At this moment, the Lab of Gods did not attack even after Leviathans were trapped.
Meanwhile, the defense teams remained on guard along the coast of Erudia. They even reinforced their already strong defense.
Even the Sacred Organization and the team from Maya Industries remained there.
Now that they knew the Lab of Gods was behind the Leviathans, they feared more trouble.
Therefore, they had to remain on guard at all times.
The sea seemed peaceful and showed no signs of disturbance.
However, thousands of people kept glaring at it fiercely.
They were ready to attack the moment they noticed anything unusual.
“Enemy detected! Enemy detected…” Someone noticed unusual movements in the sea and sounded the alarm immediately.
The people gathered along the coastline began to panic.
At the same time, Death Fiend and other fighters rushed to the front.
“What’s wrong? Are you all going to fight me?” A familiar voice sounded.
Now, they could finally see clearly.
It is Levi!
“Huh? Have you finished your training?” someone asked.
Everyone was stunned, but no one dared to exclaim loudly.
Instead, they brought Levi to the defense barrier along the coast to meet Craig and his team.
Craig and his team seemed ashamed to face Levi again.
After all, they made a lot of foolish decisions.
They could not bear to look at Levi and desperately wished that the ground would swallow them up.
Then, Gary said tearfully, “Crown King, I’ve failed you! I’m sorry for failing to protect Shelter and allowing the construction to stop halfway! Furthermore, I allowed the machinery to be sold at a low price! I have failed your command! My mistake caused severe losses to Erudia! It’s all my fault!”
Gary kept blaming himself.
Even though everything seems fine now, we have suffered severe losses. We wouldn’t have lost so much if we had listened to Levi. If we had built the defense wall as he instructed, the Leviathans would not have been able to attack us. Then, there wouldn’t be any destruction. If we had been unable to trap the Leviathans, I fear Erudia would have been gone. The Shelter project was disastrous. It could have prevented a lot of suffering if we had completed it. I have failed Levi’s order!
Craig and Chandler felt despondent when Gary blame himself.
As Gary kept admonishing himself, everyone felt terrible and remorseful.
They all lowered their heads shamefully.
They felt so ashamed that they kneeled before Levi.
Although Gary kept blaming himself, he was the one who kept trying to proceed with Levi’s plan.
It was Craig and others who forced Gary to give up. They kept organizing meetings and voted to suppress Gary, causing trouble.
No matter how determined Gary was, he could persist with the plan alone.
Everyone kept opposing him from every direction.
They stopped the construction and sold the materials.
Furthermore, they also dismantled the defense barrier.
It was all their fault!
Therefore, they felt terrible when Gary shouldered all the blame by himself.
Chapter 2713 Always One Step Late
No one could fully understand the torment in their heart.
“It’s my fault too! If I didn’t enter into solitary training, I would have been able to watch over you! Then, I could have prevented you from stopping the plan!” Levi said helplessly.
Before entering solitary training, Levi had firmly instructed them not to stop no matter what happened.
Gary was on the verge of tears. “It’s all my fault! I’m useless!”
In the end, Craig could not stand it anymore.
He looked at Levi and said, “Crown King, it’s all our fault! Gary did nothing wrong! We are the ones who stopped the plan and sold all the materials to recuperate the loss! Furthermore, we dismantled the defense line and opened the gates to Erudia. You have given us instructions earlier on. It is our fault for doubting your words!”
Chandler and Nicholas also voiced their guilt together. “We deserve to be blamed for causing severe loss to Erudia! It’s all our fault! We should be the one responsible for it!”
After that, a few more people also admitted their mistakes.
Then, Craig and others kneeled before Levi and shouted, “Crown King, we are at fault! Please blame us instead!”
Levi rushed to help them up. “What are you all saying? I don’t blame you all! However, you should now see the effect of your stubbornness and your inability to think ahead! They are problematic!”
Everyone nodded immediately upon hearing Levi. “Yes, you’re right! We are too conservative and cautious. We are afraid of failure and blame! That makes us too cowardly to look ahead and change with the situation! It is our fault that things became this bad!”
Then, Gary shouted, “We are foolish for not heeding your instruction! Zephyr had long noticed something strange. Even those from the Sacred Organization warned us. How can you all gloss over them? We should be grateful that Zephyr took swift action and prevented an even more severe loss!”
Everyone looked down with guilt and blamed themselves for their actions.
Levi smiled bitterly and said, “There is one more thing. All of you still don’t seem to trust me! You don’t believe that I have the power to obtain such information! Let me tell you. I’m more powerful than you think, and I have my ways.”
Craig frowned and said, “We are the ones to blame! We failed to trust you and doubted your ability to obtain information! Furthermore, we forgot that you were once the most outstanding leader and an incredible special forces agent. You can obtain information that even Super Fighters can’t! We were wrong! I deserve punishment! It’s all our fault! We have no excuse!”
Levi immediately stopped Craig from continuing to blame himself. “That’s enough. It is not the time to blame yourself. We need to consider the next issue.”
At this moment, Craig was about to slap himself.
He was one of the leaders of the Dragonites, but now, he did not look like one at all.
Someone explained the situation to Levi and said, “Initially, we discussed with a few allies about dealing with the Leviathans… However, someone released that announcement about the Lab of Gods. It caused many of our opposing and neutral forces to pull out of the coalition, taking the assigned experts with them! Despite that, we still managed to gather experts to research the Leviathans! After all, we have scanned the Leviathans and possess a lot of data. I believe we will find a solution this way!”
Then, another person added, “Furthermore, we have trapped the Leviathans! They will take at least a month to free themselves. Even if they could free themselves, they might not be able to find their way out! Therefore, we have enough time to prepare for them!”
Everyone seemed confident with their plan.
Levi was rendered speechless by their explanation.
These people still won’t stop talking about the Leviathans. Do they not know? The Leviathans are dead. Why are these people always one step behind in realizing something?
“Is that all?” Levi asked.
Chapter 2714 Levi Became The Commander
“What else? We might not fully understand the extent of Lab of Gods’ powers, but the Leviathan is our biggest threat now!” someone answered.
Everyone nodded fervently to what the person said.
Levi replied, “There is no need to worry about the Leviathans! They are no longer an issue. All of you should stop talking about them!”
His response instantly stunned everyone.
They all turned to Levi curiously.
How can we forget a problem as severe as Leviathan? Why is he asking us to forget?
“No! Crown King, you may not be aware, but we have only trapped the Leviathans temporarily! I estimate that we have a few months before they manage to escape!” someone protested.
“Furthermore, the Leviathans belong to the Lab of Gods. They could get free sooner if the Lab of Gods searches for them! Therefore, we need to find a solution quickly before the Leviathans appear again!” another person added.
Everyone thought that Levi did not understand the situation and rushed to explain.
Levi rolled his eyes and said, “I know! You have trapped them in the abandoned training base under the sea! Stop worrying about them! This matter is over now!”
Everyone appeared even more shocked after Levi had spoken.
They looked at him in disbelief.
How did Levi know about our Atlantis plan? He speaks about it so casually as if he has witnessed it himself. How is that possible? Levi has just come out of training! He shouldn’t know about this plan!
Everyone was scared out of their wits.
“Crown King, how do you know about this?” Craig asked.
He and a few others could not stop appearing shocked by Levi’s revelation.
“I know everything about the Atlantis plan!” Levi smiled.
He had been to the abandoned “Eastford Dragon Palace” and walked around to examine the layout.
Therefore, he knew more about it than what the files recorded.
Furthermore, he knew better than anyone here why the project was stopped.
After all, he was the only person among them who had visited the site.
Everyone was even more bewildered at this point.
However, they all began to understand after giving some thoughts.
Levi was a master at gathering information.
It was not unusual if others did not know the existence of such a secret file. However, after the Leviathans incident, it would be more surprising if Levi didn’t know anything.
Therefore, it was not strange that Levi knew the Atlantis plan.
“But…” Someone still dared to doubt and wanted to protest to Levi about it.
Levi glared at the crowd and said, “I’ve already told you. The trouble with the Leviathans is over! Don’t bother thinking about them anymore! They can never come out, so stop wasting your brain cells thinking about them!”
Gary stepped up to support Levi. “All of you have heard the Crown King! How can you not believe him? The Lab of Gods may attack us any time! I believe the Crown King should be appointed as our Commander and lead Erudia’s forces to defend this place! We should all obey Crown King’s commands!”
Gary’s suggestion immediately received a tremendous response. The crowd began to voice their agreement.
“Yes, I agree!”
“I agree with it too!”
“We should listen to the Crown King in such a situation! His foresight and knowledge are way ahead of us! No one can doubt his credibility as a leader! Therefore, he should become our Commander!”
Then, Craig, Chandler, and Nicholas stepped out and voiced their opinion too.
“Yes, we agree too! Let’s surrender the matter to the Crown King! We shall obey your will!” Craig said.
“Yes, let’s use the prerogative of the Dragonites and appoint Crown King as our Commander! He will be able to mobilize all forces in Erudia!” Chandler added.
“We shall obey your commands and not intervene in your plans!” Nicholas said.
Levi agreed to the appointment without any hesitation.
“Firstly, no one shall mention the Leviathans again. They will never come out. Furthermore, stop questioning me about them. Just trust me!” Levi warned them again.
“Understood!” everyone answered.
“Please tell us what we should do, Commander. We shall assist you the best that we can!” someone said.
Everyone looked to Levi.
“Sure, let’s proceed to the next matter…” Levi proceeded to explain his plan.
Everyone was shocked after hearing Levi’s explanation.
Chapter 2715 The Assignment Of Tasks
“Is… Is this doable?” someone asked.
Everyone trembled slightly and looked at Levi in disbelief.
Levi’s plan had shocked everyone!
He had just told them the first part of his plan. It was to expand the defense barrier.
The proposed defense barrier would extend beyond Erudia’s territorial waters.
It would surround Keerea and Raysonia’s territorial waters too.
Furthermore, the defense barrier would be built on the sea and cover an unbelievably wide area.
Furthermore, it would surround the whole of Keerea and Raysonia.
They were not sure whether Keerea and Raysonia would agree to this.
Therefore, everyone was shocked.
Gary shouted immediately, “I support your plan, Commander! If we do not extend our defense barrier to cover those two countries, they might fall to the Lab of Gods! Then, the Lab of Gods could use their proximity as a launchpad to attack us! It would allow them to sneak on us and cause grave danger! Therefore, we need to expand our defense barrier and cover them no matter what.”
Gary glanced around the crowd and continued, “Furthermore, even if Keerea and Raysonia have chosen to surrender, we could still control the situation and act immediately! Furthermore, expanding our defense barrier would bring us tremendous advantages! We could find out the situation in advance and have more time to react!”
“That’s true! Previously, we made the mistake of cutting down on our defense. It gave our enemies a lot of opportunities…” someone replied.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
“Now, I shall distribute the tasks!” Levi declared.
He turned to Zoey and asked, “Where are the members of the Carigrey Academy?”
Although many from the Carigrey Academy were unconvinced by Levi’s ability, they had no choice but to obey Levi as he was now the Commander.
Furthermore, they could not deny that his strategies were unparalleled.
He could make the most of everyone’s strength and assign the most suitable position.
It was something that others could not do.
Thus, the members of the Carigrey Academy answered in unison, “Here!”
Levi instructed, “I will arrange all of you at the frontline position at the new defense barrier. It shall be five people per team. Your task is to cover every point of the defense barrier on the sea! You shall survey the area and prevent enemies from breaching the defense barrier. I believe you can react quickly and deal with any threat detected!”
Then, he turned to Azure Dragon and his group. “These people were once my subordinates and are experienced in this matter! I suggest that you let them lead. You can discuss the details amongst yourself!”
Azure Dragon and his group nodded. “Yes, understood!”
“Let’s go!” Azure Dragon said.
Then, everyone from Carigrey Academy set out together.
They also brought a bunch of divine tools and crossbows with them.
“As for the defense barrier surrounding Keerea and Raysonia, I leave it to you! You are originally from Keerea, so it will be easier for you to handle it!” Levi instructed Sammy.
Levi believed it would not be difficult for Sammy due to Triple Group’s capabilities.
After that, Levi looked at Craig and his group of people. “All of you shall supplement the protection of the defense barrier! There is no need to launch a full-blown attack. It is enough to deter them from breaching in!”
He paused before continuing, “Furthermore, you should hurry up and finish the preparation for Erudia’s defense! You are all in charge of the modern weapons used against the enemies. However, ordinary defense systems are useless against the enemies’ super-powered martial artists. I remember the Sacred Organization and Maya Industries developed something to address this problem. Can I leave this to you?”
Donald and Tyrone were about to refuse.
However, Death Fiend answered immediately, “You can leave it to us. My master, the Dark Emperor, ordered Maya Industries and Sacred Organization to obey Erudia’s instruction!”
“That…” Donald and Tyrone were still hesitant.
What is Dark Emperor’s relationship with Erudia? Why is he willing to do everything to help? He even offers Levi his trump card. It is unbelievable.
Despite Donald and Tyrone’s reservations, neither dared to object as their master had given instruction.
They had no choice but to follow it through.
“After this, I will gather all the forces in the Sacred Organization!” Death Fiend said.
Chapter 2716 A Futuristic Country
Death Fiend and his team came here to help and were considered the main power.
The Sacred Organization had never revealed the true extent of its strength.
However, they would summon all their members to gather in Erudia this time.
“Thank you! We are grateful for your assistance!” Craig answered.
However, he was suspicious of the Sacred Organization.
Why are they helping? They are even pulling all stops to help us! Divine Brigadier said that they were on our side. He told us not to worry or suspect anything they do. Who is this Dark Emperor? Why is he helping Erudia? I don’t get it!
“Good, if you gather everyone here, it will improve our chances! After you have gathered everyone, let me be in charge of them and wait for my instructions!” Levi said.
Levi also sought permission to take command over The Cardinal Hall and the Dragonite.
Craig was hesitant. “We can’t decide this on our own! We have to ask them!”
However, DG Leo stepped out quickly and answered, “Sure, we don’t have any issue with that!”
The leaders of the ancient Garrison clan also voiced their willingness to accept Levi’s command.
Donald was shocked by what he witnessed.
Why would a clan as prideful as the ancient Garrison clan obey Levi’s instruction? They wouldn’t have cared even if Levi was the Commander.
Donald felt that something was wrong, but he did not know how to explain it.
Levi had finished deploying teams to their tasks for now.
He just had to wait for the Lab of Gods to appear.
Suddenly, Divine Brigadier came to him with a remorseful expression.
He felt guilty because he had caused Erudia to suffer severe loss.
When the Lab of Gods announced that they were forming their own country, someone had taken Senior Disciple away.
Otherwise, Divine Brigadier would never return here.
Then, Levi gathered Divine Brigadier and other fighters.
He took out bottles of what seemed to be drugs.
The drugs were made with resources from Restricted Area 76 and blood.
They were extremely rare.
Furthermore, the effect of each bottle of drugs was astounding.
“Any one of these can up your powers to another level. However, they could cause adverse effects on your future. There is a high probability of experiencing side effects from these drugs! I’ll leave it to you all to choose!” Levi explained.
He wanted all of them to grow stronger. However, he would not force them to take the drugs.
He decided to leave it to them to choose.
“The Lab of Gods is powerful! I need to grow stronger!” Divine Brigadier chose to take the drug.
After all, he planned to leave his last magical medicine to Forlevia.
Therefore, he had to take this drug.
“I’ll take it too!”
Soon, others made their choices too.
Some of them improved dramatically after taking the drug and rose to another level.
They had just reached the standard Levi wanted.
Now, they had at least some fighting chance against the fighters from Lab of Gods.
Levi had met a few fighters from the Lab of Gods, such as Lucifer and Jester King.
Therefore, he knew the extent of their powers.
Now that Divine Brigadier and others had advanced to another level, they could probably fight Lucifer and Jester King.
According to his analysis, Lucifer and Jester King’s powers were considered upper-middle-range among the fighters in Lab of Gods.
Levi felt that they had better chances against Lab of Gods now that Divine Brigadier and others stood a chance against Lucifer and Jester King.
Furthermore, something else also assured Levi of their chances of success. It was the Genius Project.
Twin Meteorites and Warrior Princess trained under the said project and advanced their powers rapidly. Levi believed that they would help in his plan.
After all, they were geniuses. Their talents and skills were above that of the members of Carigrey Academy.
Meanwhile. a large team from Lab of Gods came to Adrune’s largest desert.
The desert’s condition was harsh and inhabitable. There was not even an animal in sight.
However, after they came here, a futuristic country began to appear.
Every building and structure in the country was incredibly advanced and never seen before.
The futuristic country that ordinary people could only imagine had been made real by the Lab of Gods in this inhabitable desert.
It was an awesome sight!
Chapter 2717 From The Perspective Of God
The Lab of Gods set up a country in the desert and named it Diviniteria.
Everyone was shocked by its emergence.
The Lab of Gods is amazing!
Everyone could not help but exclaim in their minds.
One only had to look at the country that the Lab of Gods created and know that its technological advancement was far beyond anywhere else.
It fulfilled the other countries’ vision of a futuristic world!
It was astounding!
Furthermore, the rich and the famous dreamed of living in a country like Diviniteria.
Some billionaires wanted to invest a ludicrous amount of money to create similar futuristic cities.
Once they moved into such a futuristic world, they would enjoy a higher quality of life than anywhere else. They believed that only such a standard of life was worthy of their pursuit.
It was what others could never hope to achieve.
While they were still imagining a futuristic world, someone had already constructed it.
Soon, all billionaires aimed to go there.
They were willing to do anything to get in there!
Instantly, the whole world focused its attention on this futuristic country!
Everyone was amazed that the Lab of Gods constructed it!
It was frightening to think that the Lab of Gods was ahead of the world in weaponry and other technological advancements.
The Lab of Gods had achieved an unprecedented height.
It was no wonder that the Lab of Gods had the confidence to declare war on the whole world!
Previously, everyone wondered what gave them the courage.
Now, looking at the country they built, everyone could guess why.
The Lab of Gods did not have to do anything else to show the world how terrifying it is.
At this moment, people shivered in fear.
They believed that there was no point fighting the Lab of Gods.
It would be better to surrender straightaway.
Soon, the Lab of Gods settled all its equipment into Diviniteria.
Everything was ready.
There was a towering building in the center of Diviniteria so tall that it reached high into the sky.
Even the tallest building in the world would seem small next to it.
There was a futuristic lab at the highest point of this building.
It had clear glass windows that displayed misty scenery.
Furthermore, thigh-tech aircrafts surrounded the lab.
It seemed that the lab could travel into outer space at any moment.
Due to the lab’s incredible height, one could look out of the window and imagine looking from God’s perspective at the creature below.
At this moment, Mr. X and a few others entered the lab to carry out the next plan.
“Is there any new information?” Mr. X asked.
“We have just received the news! Two-thirds of the countries that previously allied with Erudia have withdrawn their support! The remaining countries are also considering leaving the coalition!” someone answered.
Mr. X sneered and said, “Don’t worry. More countries will soon abandon Erudia! Still, Erudia reacted quickly! They appointed Levi as the Commander! He is now expanding the defense barrier to surround the nearby Keerea and Raysonia!”
Lucifer and the others were triggered upon hearing Levi’s name.
Levi is an easy target based on his abilities. However, many praised his strategic mind. Levi had also fought against Bruce. After that, he fought us too. There is no one as shrewd as him. Thus, Erudia made the right choice in making him the Commander.
Mr. X continued, “Levi is something! He is ingenious to think of expanding the defense barrier to prevent neighboring countries from surrendering to us and become our stepping stone to attack him.”
Then, Mr. X sneered and said, “However, it is all useless! He won’t be able to stop us even if he extends the defense barrier! The defense barrier is nothing to us! Therefore, it is of no concern! Any other news?”
“The next one is a little scary! The Sacred Organization has called all its powerful figures from all over the world to gather in Erudia! They are moving as we speak. It has already begun…” the person answered fearfully.
Chapter 2718 The Ruffian And The Gentleman
Hearing that, there were changes in everyone’s countenance.
They could not resist feeling that the Gods of Restricted Area 76 had something up their sleeves. Do they have any connection with Erudia? Why are they backing Erudia up by all means? They seem to have used up everything they have without a second thought! My goodness! They were even willing to whip out various types of divine tools previously to battle against the Leviathans!
Undoubtedly, the Lab of Gods were clueless about how many Gods were there in Restricted Area 76 and how much equipment they possessed.
Earlier on, they were in a panic as they thought almost all the mightier Gods from Restricted Area 76 had come to Erudia’s rescue with all their equipment.
“Should we try to stop them?” the spy asked warily.
“It’s all right. There’s nothing for us to fear! I’m just wondering about the relationship between the God of Restricted Area 76 and Erudia. Besides, I doubt why the Dark Emperor and the others did not even show up under such a critical circumstance,” Mr. X pointed out quizzically.
In an instant, everyone’s face fell. Their blissfulness moments ago was gone within seconds.
Regardless of anything, they were convinced that Erudia and Restricted Area 76 had nothing to do with each other.
Stifling their fury, Lucifer, Jester King, and the others tried to reassure Mr. X, “Don’t worry. We shall leave no stones unturned, so all of them will show up soon! I want all of them to bow humbly before us, and be under our command! No matter how powerful they are, there are still Dr. Erebus and Sacroria backing us up!”
All of them were fearless!
At the same time, Sacroria came up with another strategy. “In the name of Diviniteria, make a global announcement. All the countries and forces have to surrender or be under our command within seven days! Those who manage to do so in time will automatically be given privileges as the citizens of Diviniteria. Those who surrender and join us later will be considered commoners. Next, the others who join later than them will be enslaved! Bear in mind that the slots are limited, so the arrangements will be done on a first-come, first-served basis. At the end of the seven-day grace period, they will be deemed our enemies. By then, any surrender will not be entertained. They will either be enslaved or annihilated!”
Soon, Diviniteria made an official worldwide announcement on that. It sent the whole world into a state of frenzy! Seven days? Or what?
Apparently, the earlier they surrender, the better. Otherwise, they could only become slaves. In the worst-case scenario, it would be meaningless even if they were willing to surrender seven days later!
Not to mention, the Lab of Gods was actually using psychological warfare. Concealing their abilities at first, they had the whole world engaged in guessing games. Then, they finally revealed the mighty Leviathans and led the world into a state of terror.
However, the Lab of Gods was still trying to trace the Leviathans’ whereabouts for the time being. They had assigned a special task force equipped with the most advanced machines to the Leviathans’ last location before they lost contact, hoping to track them down.
Furthermore, they had almost informed Sacroria about it so they could come up with a countermeasure. Even so, they changed their mind at the last minute as they thought it was inappropriate to bother Sacroria with such a trivial matter.
On the other hand, Dr. Erebus was aware of that and had been tracking down the Leviathans by all means.
The Lab of Gods pinned their hopes on Dr. Erebus as he was the one who invented the invincible war machines. Thus, they were convinced that he would be able to do magic.
“Mr. X, Dr. Erebus and the others are here!” someone called out.
Right that instant, a futuristic aircraft emerged on the platform attached to the other side of the window.
The next moment, a few figures got down from it and headed straight toward them.
Without hesitation, Mr. X led everyone to welcome them. Dr. Erebus was in a relatively higher position than him as Dr. Erebus was a member of Sacroria!
“Dr. Erebus, welcome!” everyone greeted him loudly.
When the door opened, Dr. Erebus strode in at once.
Dressed elegantly in a suit, he looked dignified with the eye-catching ring on his slender finger and branded watch on his wrist.
Apart from that, his facial features behind a pair of gold-rimmed spectacles were captivating. Exuding the unique vibe of a noble gentleman, he could easily bedazzle everyone around him. It was as though he was a prince from the royal family!
Standing alongside Mr. X, Dr. Erebus was in stark contrast to him.
If one of them looked like a ruffian in a suit, while the other a noble gentleman.
Chapter 2719 He Knows The Leviathans Are Dead
Nonetheless, who would have thought that such a noble gentleman was a cold-blooded murderer!
He was holding a scalpel in his right hand all the time! It was a black scalpel that could slash open anything effortlessly!
Almost every moment of his life was spent conducting autopsies. In other words, he was snatching countless lives non-stop every day!
Nobody knew how long he had been living in the world. It would surely send a chill down everyone’s spine if they happened to find out about it!
Dr. Erebus still looked exactly like how he was when Mr. X first met him. That was already more than thirty years ago! It seemed he had never aged at all throughout the years. There was not even the slightest bit of change in him.
Even Mr. X was clueless about how old Dr. Erebus was. He presumed only Sacroria knew about the dark doctor’s secret.
Everyone could not help but rack their brains. Dr. Erebus is just human like all of us, isn’t he? But why aren’t there any signs of aging on his face even after a few decades? How is he able to invent things which are beyond everyone’s imagination?
Even though they could not fathom the reasons, a surge of inexplicable fear started to well up from within them. How was it possible for an ordinary man to infiltrate Restricted Area 76 and capture a few “Gods” from there? How could an ordinary man kill the second generation of the Progenitors effortlessly and perform autopsies on them?
There were indeed too many versions of legends about Dr. Erebus. Even the legendary Sacroria were not comparable to him on that. He was indeed the iconic symbol admired by most from the Lab of Gods! In fact, Mr. X was one of them!
The most terrifying fact about Dr. Erebus was that he was actually a doctor based in one of the hospitals in Zarain, but nobody had any clue about his identity.
Mr. X asked eagerly, “Dr. Erebus, are you here because you have managed to trace Leviathan’s whereabouts?”
All the others huddled over him excitedly.
“Yeah!” Dr. Erebus nodded placidly.
Fastening their gazes on him, everyone felt a prickle of excitement. “How’s everything? Where are the Leviathans at the moment?”
However, Dr. Erebus shook his head. “I have no idea where they are now too. But I know they are all dead!”
“What? They are all dead?” Everyone was thunderstruck by his words.
They widened their eyes in utter disbelief. All the Leviathans are dead? How is that possible? No way! It can never happen!
“It’s impossible! If Erudia is able to kill all the Leviathans, why did they have to lure the Leviathans with underhanded tactics and trap them in a mysterious region?” someone pointed out in bafflement.
“Yeah, I agree with you! What’s more, based on the intelligence from our spies, Erudia is only trapping the Leviathans at the moment, with a time limit, perhaps one month, at the minimum!” another person echoed.
“After all, the Leviathans are invincible war machines. How is it possible for Erudia to annihilate them? No way! They can’t be dead!”
In an instant, the members of the Lab of Gods started arguing with Dr. Erebus. They were convinced that it was impossible for the Leviathans to be wiped off! Not to mention, there were altogether three thousands of them! How is it possible for Erudia to wipe all of them off?
They foresaw it would also be challenging for the Labs of Gods to battle against the Leviathans if they did not manage to control the war machine’s minds. Unavoidably, they themselves would sustain a great loss as well. It can’t be! They refused to believe it!
Hmph! What nonsense!
In the others’ eyes, the Leviathan was just another war machine as they had never witnessed its true power.
Even so, it was different for everyone in the Labs of Gods! They knew too well about the Leviathans’ unparalleled power. Hence, they were sure as h*ll that the war machines could never be annihilated! Nobody in Erudia has such formidable power! Leviathans are simply undefeatable!
“Dr. Erebus, I guess you must have made a mistake. At the moment, we have only lost contact with the Leviathans. It doesn’t mean that they are all killed!” Mr. X retorted. He assumed Dr. Erebus could not wrap his mind around the Leviathans’ disappearance.
Nonetheless, the latter nodded and replied, “Yeah, I know! But they are indeed all dead!”

“Huh?” This round, all the others were flabbergasted.
“Dr. Erebus, did you say all the Leviathans are dead?” someone piped out, perplexed. There was sheer disbelief in everyone’s eyes.
Dr. Erebus nodded again. “Yeah! Don’t you know that every Leviathan has its own energy capsule? It functions as a combination of the human heart, brain, and other fundamental organs! But now I sense that their energy capsules have stopped spinning. Or perhaps, I should say they were shattered. Hence, I’m confirmed they’re all dead!”
“Ah! Is that true?” Dr. Erebus’s words sent some of them into a tizzy.
Their faces turned ashen in an instant! Undeniably, they would be in a precarious state if the Leviathans were dead!
“I still can’t accept it! I bet you must be unable to sense their energy capsules because Erudia had lured them into an isolated, mysterious region. It could hinder any signal from the outer world from getting through! Even any highly advanced technology can’t be of any help! I’m sure you can’t detect any signal from their energy capsules because of that too!” Mr. X analyzed matter-of-factly.
“Ah! There’s another point! I believe this mysterious region is closely related to Restricted Area 76. However, those so-called Gods can’t defeat the Leviathans! Not to mention, you took Restricted Area 76 into consideration when designing the Leviathans, didn’t you? Even if their combat prowess or divine tool could harm the Leviathans, it’s not till the extent of shattering their energy capsules, am I right? Don’t worry! The special task force assigned in search of the Leviathans is very capable! I believe we’ll be able to track them down within seven days!” he added confidently.
The others nodded approvingly and felt his explanation made sense.
Instead of refuting his words, Dr. Erebus asked, “Has those so-called Gods of Restricted Area 76 joined hands with Erudia?”
“Yeah! It seems they’re backing Erudia up by all means at the moment!” Lucifer nodded.
“Fine, let’s attack Erudia seven days later! I’ll fight against Restricted Area 76 myself! Meanwhile, Sacroria will give a hand at times when you are in deep water!” Dr. Erebus announced grimly.
“Dr. Erebus, noted!” Everyone nodded obediently.
Next, Dr. Erebus turned to look at Mr. X again. “What do you think of Zarain?”
“Undoubtedly, Zarain is really powerful. But we know each other too well. They are ambitious to be the overlord just like us. Thus, I don’t think they will surrender. Now that our strategy is to conquer the world, we might have to declare war against them!” Mr. X replied.
“Then bear in mind to stop them from forming an alliance with Erudia. We mustn’t let both parties get in touch with each other!” Dr. Erebus instructed before he left and headed straight for his laboratory.
No doubt, different regions had roughly been set for different countries in the futuristic city, respectively.
However, Dr. Erebus had enlightened Mr. X all of a sudden.
Slapping himself on the back of his head, Mr. X yelled out, “Ah! I’ve almost overlooked that! Enemies might change their stance and become allies at any time! Everyone, I have a new announcement…”
Diviniteria’s announcement resulted in a worldwide uproar. Everyone was utterly speechless the moment they knew they must surrender within seven days.
Shortly after, a big group of millionaires and those from the upper-scale societies opted to join Diviniteria one by one.
Among them, there were the wealthiest man from Adrune, petroleum tycoons, machinery tycoons, different business conglomerates from Baykeep, and other influential figures from all over the world. They even contributed their resources and properties with utmost sincerity to Diviniteria.
After all, they had been looking forward to the advanced lifestyle of a futuristic city. Hence, they opted in without a second thought when they knew about the given time frame of seven days.
For the first batch of persons who joined them, Diviniteria welcomed them with premium privilege as promised.
Apart from that, they even promised to build a futuristic city for the newly joined citizens after they conquered the whole world.
Many were flushed with excitement after the first batch of millionaires surrendered and joined Diviniteria. Subsequently, more and more people joined Diviniteria.
Even the Lab of Gods was astounded by the great response of the others. Triggered by the first batch of newly joined citizens, everyone rushed to surrender and join Diviniteria maniacally, fearing that they might lose the opportunity to do so at any moment.
