With the shouts of Yacoub and others, the news about Eleanor leaving spread quickly among the
Flying Eagles of Oregon.
Within ten minutes, thousands of people followed suit. All of them were old troops that followed Jade in
the fights at the ancient boundary. They had an immensely strong bond with Jade and Eleanor. Hence
they were genuinely disappointed with the current Flying Eagles.
âLetâs leave. Iâm leaving too!â
âItâs time to quit. Iâve been here for thirteen years. Iâve fought more than three hundred wars, and Iâve
nearly died thirty-six times. Itâs time to plan for the rest of my life.â
âYeah. Itâs not worth fighting for the Flying Eagles now.â
âThe spirit of the Flying Eagles has been lost.â
One by one, identity tokens were dropped to the ground and stepped on. If it was before, these tokens
were like precious treasures to the troops of Flying Eagles. They werenât merely tokens but symbols of
pride to be part of this squad.
By the time Eleanor left, up to ten thousand people had gathered behind her. All of them threw away
their tokens and quit with her.

Soon, the higher-ups of the Flying Eagles had heard the news. Even the officials knew about this.
At a critical time where the demon tribe was on the verge of attacking, a departure of such gargantuan
scale came as heavy news to many.
Darnic himself couldnât believe what was happening. He couldnât understand why just the resignation of
a military counselor would cause such a result. Not to mention, the withdrawal of members was still
ongoing. More and more members were leaving the Flying Eagles. Even members of the Flying Eagles
at the ancient boundary were quitting and returned to America as soon as they heard the news.
Things had become way too serious. Darnic was now shaking in fear. He didnât know what would
happen next.
A few minutes later, one of Darnicâs subordinates told him that he was to call for a Grand Conference
immediately. The Grand Conference had only taken place before this after the chief was pressured by
the families.
However, this time, the chief called for the conference himself.
As the conference began, the chief immediately expressed his fury. Such a grave issue had to be
solved no matter what. Unfortunately, the key to the solution was Jade.
âWhereâs Jade?â
âWhere has Jade gone? Find Jade for me immediately!â
âAnd you, Darnic! As the commander of the Flying Eagles, why do you always hide at the back? If
youâre so afraid of death, why are you still the commander? Itâs now time to be a role model for the
Flying Eagles! I order you to go to the frontline immediately and stop the demon tribe! Even if you are
the only soldier left, you have to guard the ancient boundary, do you understand?!â
Hearing this, Darnicâs heart shuddered. He could even feel his legs go weak.
That afternoon, Darnic led a troop of Flying Eagles warriors and rushed to the frontline of the ancient
boundary. At that time, the leopard demon had led a hundred thousand demon soldiers to their city
wall. The city wall was built much like a moat. It was easy to defend but hard to attack.
Seeing this, Darnic was about to order his troops to repair the walls. That was when the leopard demon
ordered an attack
He decided to attack because he could sense⦠That his wife had just died.
âAttack!â
