Lord Chapter 188

Chapter 188 Geomancy Master

“Mr. Shaw, are you sure?” the soldier asked curiously.

He didn’t want to die.

“Don’t worry. Just do as I say and nothing bad will happen!” Henry continued.

But he was lying as there was no way to change the situation anymore.

The soldier had no choice but to follow Henry’s order.

However, this time, the White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise simultaneously attacked the Azure Dragon.

The Azure Dragon suffered a devastating defeat!

The soldier watched helplessly as the piece got eaten and felt a sense of impending doom.

Just as he prepared to escape, a massive stone came crashing down, turning him into a pulp!

Seeing the three bodies on the ground, everyone suddenly realized that Henry had been lying!

“You deceitful old man! How dare you trick us!”

“Yeah! How dare you act confident when you’re not even sure!”

“Damn it! And you call yourself a master?”

“This old guy doesn’t have any skills. He doesn’t even care about our comrades‘ lives!”

“Don’t believe a word he says anymore!”

The special forces soldiers were furious, ready to lay hands on Henry.

Seeing this, Henry immediately hid behind Taylor.

“Mr. Taylor, you must protect me! I came all the way from Tigra. How could I be a fraud? The constellation board’s situation changes constantly, and it’s beyond my control!” Henry

pleaded.

“Bob, calm your men down. Compensation will be given to the families of the fallen soldiers!” Taylor knew Henry wasn’t a fraud.

But his three consecutive failures had indeed left everyone disappointed.

“I can calm them down, but I demand a replacement. I won’t trust this old man anymore!” Bob said angrily.

His three subordinates died in vain.

“Alright, let’s call it a day. I’ll consult with King Kan and see what’s next,” Taylor replied.

Everyone was quite frightened, hence it wasn’t suitable to continue.

They could only retreat now and carefully plan their next moves.

“Soldiers, let’s all calm down. The losses were inevitable. Rest assured that those who have

been sacrificed will get compensation. Let’s retreat now and figure out the next step later,”

Bob said to his soldiers.

Though Taylor was his superior, Bob had to take responsibility for his subordinates.

Otherwise, he’d be nothing more than a figurehead.

The disk returned to its original state once again.

Henry was too shaken and dared not attempt further.

“I wasn’t prepared today. I’ll return when I’ve thought of a foolproof way,” he explained,

trying to save some dignity.

But Bob wasn’t buying it.

“Not prepared? Why didn’t you say so earlier? I think you’re just a fraud!” Bob said bluntly.

“What do you know! It’s incredibly difficult for me to make those few moves in such a challenging puzzle!” Henry retorted.

Bob didn’t bother to continue further.

Then, they buried the three bodies and left.

Caspian couldn’t sleep the whole night after hearing about the Tigrans‘ operation.

He had been waiting for Sylvia’s news.

At this moment, his phone buzzed once more.

He quietly left the bedroom and answered the call.

“How’s it going?” Caspian asked.

“They left Dragon’s Hill, seemingly empty–handed,” Sylvia answered.

“It seems they couldn’t crack the puzzle,” he remarked.

If they had succeeded, they wouldn’t have returned empty–handed.

“I noticed that they were missing three individuals! Perhaps an accident occurred, or they were left behind to guard the place,” she analyzed.

“After they’ve left, take some men with you and investigate the situation,” Caspian instructed.

“Understood.” With that, she ended the call.

Caspian sat on the couch and waited for Sylvia’s updates.

40 minutes later, Sylvia called again.

“Caspian, something seems off. We found two bodies buried in front of the stone door. One b*dy was beheaded while the other was shot by arrows. There’s also a boulder, and underneath it is a crushed b*dy! It seems there are hidden traps here,” Sylvia reported after

surveying the area.

“Check the surroundings for any other potential traps and examine the disk. Are there any changes to it?” Caspian asked.

“The disk seems unchanged, but the dust on it is gone. It was as if it was moved but returned to its original state. Should I try moving it to see what will happen?” Sylvia was puzzled at the situation.

“Hold on! Don’t act recklessly. They might have triggered the traps due to decryption failure. Return with your team and I’ll figure this out. They’ll surely come back. After all, they’ve wasted too much time and energy there,” he instructed.

“I understand. But if even Henry can’t solve it, who else can? Any chance that Willow can do it?

” she asked.

“She has seen the photo but has no idea about it. But one thing for sure is that the Tigrans

won’t give up

For now, retreat with your team,” Caspian said before hanging up.

Taylor returned to Glorious Group as he felt it wasn’t wise to sit idly by.

“Bob, get your subordinates to investigate if Diatoran has any knowledgeable masters. We need to solve that puzzle!” Taylor instructed.

“Don’t we have that master from Tigra? Why do we need to look for someone else?” Bob. replied sarcastically.

“He’s currently clueless, and we can’t rely solely on him. We must find others, and we need to uncover the treasures quickly,” Taylor urged.

“Understood. I’ll get on it,” Bob said and left the office.

After a while, he hurried back into the office.

“Mr. Taylor, we’ve found a master in this field, but unfortunately, he has passed away. However, it was sad that before he died, he handed a manual to his granddaughter that

excitedly.

“Who’s his granddaughter? Can we bring her in?” Taylor anxiously inquired. “We know her. She’s the president of Southlake Corporation, Willow Stewart!” Bob answered.
