Chapter 1712

Everyone chuckled.

No one expected the criminals to show up in the middle of nowhere.

Dang, they are basically offering their men up for free.

Levi had already guessed that his enemy would try to ambush Oakland City.

As a military commander, he knew that was what most would do under those circumstances. Heck, if Levi was on the enemy’s side, he would send his men to destroy Oakland City as well.

That was why he was worried and was thinking about how to deal with the situation in Oakland City.

He couldn’t exactly split in half and go protect the city.

To his surprise, his enemy served themselves right up and helped him solve the problem.

Phoenix stood beside him and asked, “Do you think they’d believe that those pills are poisons? Those are actually ordinary vitamins and supplements.”

Levi had used that trick a dozen times.

He would use some random pills and tell his enemy that it was poison.

It seemed that the trick would never get old.

Levi chuckled and replied, “The more powerful a person is, the more that person would value his or her own life. They would never risk it. Moreover, I have shaken them to their core, so they definitely bought the lie!”

“Hahaha…”

The crowd laughed aloud as they continued their journey toward the East Warzone.

On the other side.

The criminals gathered.

“Is that really poison? Why do I not feel anything at all? It felt like I just drank some water.”

“It’s not fake, is it? I don’t think it’s poison at all.”

“No, it has to be real,” claimed Ice Lord and Fire Lord of the Icefire Palace, “Those common folks may seem like nothing to us, but their technology and medicine are scary. Besides, did Levi Garrison look like he was kidding?”

Those words stunned everyone.

He’s right!

These martial artists discriminated against common folks and dissed modern technology and medicine, but Jared’s Deicide taught them to think otherwise.

Modern technology has progressed beyond our imagination.

Humans, even powerful martial artists, had always feared the unknown.

That was why the criminals worried, and why they would do anything Levi told them to.

“By the way, did you guys notice the style and technique Mr. Garrison use earlier?” asked the leader of the Northern Demon gang.

“You guys noticed it too, huh?” replied Chester of the Sword Sect grimly.

“Yeah, I caught that, too. At first, I assumed that I made a mistake.”

“Really? I noticed it, too. So it’s true, then.”

The head of the Tiger Palace, Desmond, gasped and said, “So he really is the disciple of the big demon? His style is an exact match to that old man’s!”

Woof… woof…

Everyone panted heavily.

“If that’s true, then it’s only right that we refer to him as our master. We have to obey his every command,” murmured everyone in astonishment.

That was something Levi never anticipated.

The Northern Demon recognized his fighting style, but who would’ve thought that its common members knew even more about that.

Moreover, how scary did a person have to be to inspire that level of fear among the criminals?

It was beyond shocking.

Hence, no one dared to dilly dally or ignore Levi’s commands anymore.

They showed up early in Oakland City and set up a defensive perimeter right away.

They even recruited more criminals to accomplish that mission.

All they said was that it was an order from the big demon’s heir.

That single sentence got everyone to show up immediately.

Even those who had joined forces with the Ruling Union had abandoned their posts and switched stance.

At that moment.

The Ruling Union had sent five hundred martial artists, and they were already in the vicinity of Oakland City.

Those men were the last remaining resource Bruce had with him.

He planned on getting those men to crush Oakland City.

They would obliterate organizations such as the Dragonites…

That was the last wild card the Ruling Union could put down…
