Zeke patted Wolf’s Greed on the shoulder, “Annihilate them to deter any other invaders. You should be able to take
care of the Blacksnake Squad on your own, right?”
Wolf’s Greed got up and saluted, “Rest assured, Great Marshal. I, Wolf’s Greed, will make sure not a single man
returns alive.”
Wolf’s Greed rushed off.
Soon, the sounds of firing became even more intense.
Zeke closed his eyes in a last-ditch attempt to absorb the energy with the remainder of his life force...
More accurately, the empty shell that his life force had left behind.
However, the results were disappointing.
His life force was too weak to withstand the spiritual energy.

Zeke headed outside. Looks like there’s no hope of recovering my life force. In that case, I might as well make a
final burst and use the remainder of my life force to kill the enemy. It’s an honor to die protecting my country.
Zeke took a seat outside the cave.
The fighting outside the cave was especially intense.
Wolf’s Greed did not lack the firepower and soon overwhelmed the enemy.
However, Wolf’s Greed’s men had suddenly stopped shooting.
“What’s going on?” Zeke inquired.
Wolf’s Greed spat, “Darn it! The Blacksnake group used a bunch of old civilians as a shield. If we shoot, we’d be
killing civilians.”
Darn it! Zeke cursed under his breath. By dragging civilians into this, the Blacksnake group has violated the
Greeneva Convention! Well, that’s to be expected, given that the Spirit Stone mine is at stake here.
Cobra, the leader of the Blacksnake Squad, yelled, “People of Eurasia, listen up! I give you one minute to clear a
path for us to enter. For every minute you wait, I’ll kill one civilian. Do as you see fit.”
Zeke and Wolf’s Greed scowled. If we made way, the Spirit Stone mine would be lost. However, if we didn’t... Are
we just going to watch as they kill civilians?
Zeke instructed, “Clear a path.”
Wolf’s Greed panicked, “But, the Spirit Stone mine...”
Zeke assured him, “Don’t worry. If we can’t open the Spirit Stone mine, then neither can they. If they force their
way in, the Spirit Stone mine will self-destruct, and they won’t be able to obtain it either.”
“Alright,” Wolf’s Greed relented and made the command.
Soon, the Blacksnake Squad walked in with a bunch of civilians held hostage.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThey were all the old and weak, so they were particularly frail.
With the shock from being held hostage, they had turned pale and started trembling. A few of the elderly had
difficulty breathing and would even collapse at any moment.
The one leading them was Cobra.
He was a dark-skinned, bearded, middle-aged man.
He had a domineering presence befitting of a Silver Archduke class.
At this moment, Zeke was still seated by the cave.
Cobra snapped, “Who are you? Get out now, or I’ll kill the civilians!”
Zeke smirked and took out the Great Marshal’s Seal.
“Great Marshal!” Cobra’s face fell and shrieked. “You’re the Great Marshal!”
When they heard the words ‘Great Marshal’, the civilians had their hopes up.
To them, the Great Marshal was the pillar of the nation and could definitely protect their lives.
They immediately knelt down and begged, “Great Marshal, please save us!”
Yet, at that moment, Zeke was frustrated at his own incompetence.
