"Of course." Duncan downed the remaining of his wine and turned to Boris, saying, "I leave the Roche family and the Gold Faction in your care."
Boris did not seem pleased. Instead, he sighed lightly. "Actually, I would prefer you to retreat to the mountains to cultivate. With the Tribtion Realm ancestor''s heritage, you could break through to the Profound Oriental Realm in five years at most. After that, no one would be able to threaten you."
"Five years!" Duncan raged, his eyes clouding over with frustration. "If I don''t kill Nash, even 500 years wouldn''t be enough for me to break through to the Profound Oriental Realm. He''s my greatest obstacle!" After a moment, he stood up and said, "I''m tired. Who will take care of the city hall issue?"
With the martial and business sectors under control, gaining control of the political sphere would give Duncan dominion over all of Munford. After that, he nned to lead his forces against Jonford and eliminate Nash. "I''ll handle it," Peter dered confidently. "I''ll just use the One God Bug to control those in charge."
Duncan nodded. "Thank you, Godfather."
...
Above the abandoned power station hovered the transport ne from the Divine Strategy Squadron. The sky was dotted with numerous ck specks that buzzed loudly as they descended toward their target below.
Figures d in blue and white uniforms descended onto the ground one by one. The martial arts team consisted of five Mystique Loyalty Realm martial artists, 20 Profound Reality Realm martial artists, and 20 great-grandmasters. The Esper team boasted two second- generation Espers and 60 first-generation Espers.N?velDrama.Org owns all content.
Suddenly, an overweight mannded on a high-voltage power line and screeched like a ughtered pig before falling to the ground. He then began to froth at the mouth and convulse.
The muscles in Das'' face twitched twice as he coldly asked, "Which group is he from?"
Geoff, the head of the third Esper group from the Autumn Squad, gave an embarrassed smile. "He''s from my group. He just recently left Esperville."
"And what exactly is his power?" Das asked sternly.
The color drained from Geoff''s face as he answered, "He can release gasparable to that of a high-explosive bomb."
A red-haired woman next to them could not help but burst intoughter.
Geoff scowled. "What are youughing at?"
"It just reminded me of something funny!" The redhead, June, was the leader of the second Esper group and also a second-generation Esper. She managed to speak between chuckles. Geoff continued, "Deputy Commander, you shouldn''t underestimate him. His gas can flip over a tank!"
Once more,ughter erupted among the group, lightening the tense atmosphere slightly.
The leader of the martial arts group from Autumn Squad also burst intoughter. Geoff red at him and demanded, "And what are youughing at?"
With a goofy grin, the leader replied, "I just remembered something funny too!"
"Enough. Bring up the satellite images!" Dasmanded, clearly uninterested in further exnations from Geoff.
Just then, angther ne slowly passed overhead, releasing a torrent of ck dots that dived toward the ground. Soon after, a second ne flew over, and Nash and his team plummeted toward the ground like meteors.
Wendy, Angelica, and Lumicked the ability tond from such heights and were entirely dependent on Nash and Bertram, who grasped their arms to guide them safely.
With a resounding boom, all sixnded together.
Nash surveyed the Divine Strategy Squadron. Setting aside the rest, their uniforms were
impressive-blue and white leather jumpsuits paired with ck gloves. They also had wireless earpieces tucked into their ears.
ncing at Wendy and the others in their camouge outfits, he asked, "Lumi, when can we get our uniforms?"
"They customized those themselves," Lumi exined.
"Then we should customize ours
too, and they should look even better
than theirs. We''re not short on money!" Nash dered seriously, treating the matter with utmost importance.
"Alright, I''ll find someone to design them soon." Lumi nodded in agreement. "Attention!"
