Chapter 1697

“Extra! Extra! There’s trouble in the West warzone! The Medical Elite ancient family, along with powerful forces amounting to tens of thousands of martial artists have surrendered! They’ve all joined the Ruling Union! With the West warzone having only thousands of men left on guard, they’re going to be defeated in no time! Once the West warzone’s fifth line of defense breaks, all of Erudia will be infiltrated due to its unique topography! If that happens, Erudia’s going to be taken over completely! And If the East warzone’s fifth line of defense breaks too, it’ll be a problem for Oakland City! Erudia is in grave danger!”

The news of the Medical Elite ancient family surrendering and betraying the country alongside a legion of martial artists quickly spread across the world.

This was an utter slap to the face for Erudia.

Both citizens and Dragonites were dumbfounded and terrified.

All that courage they once possessed instantly vanished.

The North and South warzones didn’t matter at all.

What mattered most were the East and West warzones.

These were the zones that could truly endanger Erudia.

Alas, the worst had come.

Erudia had lost control in the West, and the East may not be able to hang on for much longer.

Erudia’s darkest and most difficult moment had arrived.

The entire nation fell into anguish.

No one bothered talking dirt about those traitors; it was no use.

All that awaited was annihilation.

The streets became empty in an instant.

Every business ceased operations.

The people quietly awaited their fate.

Even a child knew what it meant to lose the West warzone.

“Hurry up and think of something, or we’re finished for real!”

“We still haven’t been able to reach the raiders yet.”

“There’s no point trying to. They must have gone to the East warzone.”

The Dragonites were fast running out of options too.

Other countries went wild over Erudia’s current situation.

Countless people laughed.

Henry was among the traitors who had run off.

The more horrible the situation in Erudia became, the more they showed their intention of running away.

Meanwhile, on the Ruling Union’s side, Carter advanced with his troops.

They knew their opponents’ defense mechanisms and even each one of their combat abilities.

Hence, Carter wasn’t nervous at all.

He had even brought Abigail with him just to get her involved.

That way, she would have no way of walking away from this matter.

“Let me go if you have the balls to, Carter!” the woman screamed.

“Scream all you want, Abigail. You won’t be able to do that soon enough. When this war ends, the world will know about us, and about you being a traitor of Erudia!”

Carter spoke the truth to her.

Abigail immediately fell silent.

By then, she would be labeled a traitor and not be allowed to set foot inside Erudia ever again.

Carter was way too sly.

Abigail was now tied down completely.

It was going to be hard for her to get out of this.

Carter quickly arrived at the fourth defense barrier.

“So it’s you, traitors! You scumbags! You’re nothing but a puppet army!”

The hot-tempered Tobias raged at them.

The crowd refused to accept such an outcome. “I don’t want to die in the hands of these scumbags!”

Carter grinned and said mockingly, “Kill yourselves, then. Don’t make me deal with you myself.”

“You sure have some nerve talking like that, you brat!”
