The War God's Homecoming

Chapter 532 Is It a Dilemma for Billy?

"Lord George, what do you mean by that? Are you threatening me?" Rukchi was no fool and naturally understood the other's intentions.

"Lord Rukchi, you're overreacting. I'm just helping you see the situation clearly." George shrugged his shoulders.

"You..." Rukchi furrowed his brows.

"Both of you, stop bickering for now," the woman said, also furrowing her brows before turning to Rukchi. "Lord Rukchi, what Lord George said just now does make some sense. At this point, it's too late to adjust our plans. Moreover, you are being overly pessimistic. Even if King of the West is powerful, he's only a half-step War God-Emperor in cultivation. And here we have twenty War God-Emperors, including two mid-stage War God-Emperor experts. Killing a half-step War God-Emperor like him should be a piece of cake, with no room for unexpected events."

"That's right, Lord Rukchi, don't be so paranoid. Just relax and wait for him to arrive!" another man chimed in.

Rukchi exhaled deeply. He was well aware that he was in a tricky situation and couldn't back down now. The arrow was on the string and he had no choice but to release it. If he canceled the plan and had the representatives of the other seven nations leave, his only way out would be to negotiate compensation with Glavale. There were no other options. So, instead of doing that, he decided to take a gamble, and besides, there was a good chance of success, at least a seventy to eighty percent chance. Then, he turned to the messenger who had delivered the message earlier and said, "Go and bring Glavale's General Wilson here."

"Understood!" the man replied loudly.

"In addition, notify everyone at the base to evacuate to a distance of ten kilometers, except for those in the War Grandmaster level and above." Rukchi continued.

The actual strength of King of the West far exceeded his estimation, and leaving ordinary soldiers at the base was equivalent to sending them to their deaths.

"Affirmative!" the man responded again before quickly leaving.

"That's more like it!" George smirked slightly.

"Alright, everyone, take your positions. He should be arriving soon!" Rukchi scanned George coldly and then addressed the group.

"Got it!" the others responded, and each of them started making their preparations.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, half an hour had gone by.

Boom!

A loud explosion rang out, and the two large doors at the base entrance instantly burst open. Following that, Billy and a few others walked in steadily.

"Boss, something doesn't seem right," Stout said as they took a few steps into the base. "Why is a military base so deserted?"

"It does seem suspicious," Casey said after using his psychic power to probe the surroundings. His tone was slightly grave. "Boss, there's something unusual inside this base."

On the side, Azure Dragon's face also wore a look of seriousness, as he had sensed the presence of many formidable individuals.

"Mmm," Billy nodded slightly and instructed, "The three of you, be cautious. If anything seems amiss, withdraw immediately."

"Understood!" Casey and the others nodded in unison.

As Billy and his group reached the central training ground of the base, they heard approaching footsteps. Soon after, Rukchi and his entourage emerged from the main conference hall, with one of the men escorting Cole Wilson.

"Commander Gardner, you shouldn't have come!" Cole Wilson took a deep breath and addressed Billy.

Billy's arrival here didn't surprise

him. The elders of the War Department weren't in the capital, and since he had been captured by Aquilandia's people, it was only natural for Billy to show up. But he didn't want Billy to be here. He had learned that this entire situation was targeted at Billy. Aquilandia's sudden. aggression against Glavale's northern territories was, in reality,

aimed at Glavale's King of the West.

A deadly trap had been set to deal with Billy, and they were just waiting for him to enter the fray.

"General Wilson, are you all right?" Billy didn't respond to Cole's words but instead looked at him and asked calmly. While speaking, he released his psychic power to check Cole Wilson's condition. It seemed that Cole Wilson's cultivation had been sealed off.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

"I'm fine!" Cole Wilson shook his head and then spoke loudly, "You must leave quickly. Don't mind me. Their real target is you!"

"I know," Billy nodded in response.

Before entering this base, he had been speculating about Aquilandia's true intentions in this conflict. However, upon entering the base and sensing the anomalies inside, he had quickly realized that this situation was a setup designed specifically for him.

"So, you old bunch of scoundrels want to go after my boss," Stout said after hearing Cole Wilson's words. He then threw the barely conscious Anvik to the ground.

"You people from Aquilandia have no fear at all, plotting against my boss. Aren't you afraid of your nation's demise?" Azure Dragon exclaimed angrily.

Although Casey didn't say anything, a sharp and aggressive look flashed in his eyes.

"King of the West, your arrival is an honor, and we apologize for the improper welcome." Rukchi said, ignoring Stout and Azure Dragon and addressing Billy with a loud voice.

"Let them all come out!" Billy responded casually. "I'm already here, so why are they hiding?"

"It's truly impressive, King of the West, Commander Gardner. Your calm and composed demeanor alone earns my admiration." George, the representative from Northfortia, walked out with two others.

At the same time, representatives

from the other six countries and their entourages walked out from around the training ground, surrounding Billy's group. Everyone ceased concealing their auras, and the entire training ground became enveloped in an overwhelming pressure. In addition, around twenty Aquilandia personnel entered from outside the base and positioned themselves at the base's entrance, all possessing the cultivation level of War Grandmasters.

"You've gone all out. You seem to hold me in high regard." Billy surveyed his surroundings and squinted his eyes slightly.

"Casey, can you sense the levels of these people?" Stout took a deep breath and then turned to Casey beside him.

While he couldn't directly sense the specific abilities of these people, the aura they emitted was causing him a headache.

"Twenty God-Emperor Realm

experts, including two Tier-two War

God-Emperors, five Tier-one War

God-Emperors, eight Novice War

God-Emperors, and five Pseudo-God-Emperor Realm cultivators." Casey introduced the enemies in terms of power from strongest to weakest in a serious tone. As he spoke, his expression became even more solemn. He was well aware that, with Billy's current strength, killing a Tier-one War God-Emperor wouldn't be a problem at all. Even if four or five War God-Emperors joined forces, Billy might not necessarily win, but escaping unharmed would certainly be achievable. However, now, there were twenty War God-Emperors. With such a lineup, even if Billy revealed all his trump cards, there was no chance of winning.

Not only was victory unlikely, but there was no hope of escaping either. The two War God-Emperor Mid-Stage experts could easily take Billy's life with just one move if they went all out. Upon hearing Casey's assessment, Stout was fuming. These people had set up a deadly trap.
