Chapter 689


    Pablo trembled uncontrobly. Then, he staggered and stumbled out of centralmand.


    He hastily gave the order to retreat.


    The allied forces of the twenty-eight nations withdrew as quickly as they could.


    At the same time, James called Henry and instructed him to lead the ck Dragon army toward


    Southern ins City and garrison it. Overnight, all armed forces of the twenty-eight nations had


    retreated. The ck Dragon army retook Southern ins City. In the wee hours of the morning the


    next day… James, who was in his ck Dragon robe, was in the conference room of the Southern


    ins military region. “Levi, lead the ck Dragon army and screen the perimeter in a 400-kilometer


    radius. If you find any remaining enemy forces, shoot on sight.” “Understood.”


    Levi instantly stood up and gave the order. Since James had given the allied forces of the twenty-eight


    nations time to withdraw, he would have no mercy on those who remained.


    It was now seven in the morning,


    Most Soleans were already awake by this time.


    Everyone woke up to shocking news.


    “Breaking news! The allied forces of the twenty-eight nations have retreated. The ck Dragon army


    has retaken control of Southern ins City!”


    The news spread throughout Sol and the rest of the world.


    Everyone was taken aback.


    What happened? How did the situation on the battlefield undergo such a drastic change overnight?


    Everyone was puzzled. They watched thetest developments of the war intently and waited for the


    official report.


    In the conference room of the Southern ins’ military region…


    Henry stood up and said, “Sir, there are many war reporters in the Southern ins that wish to have an


    interview with you. They want to know what happenedst night. Should we ept their request and


    give them an exnation?” James replied dismissively, “Nah, resolving the conflict while minimizing


    casualties and retaking Southern ins City should suffice as an exnation. Henry, I’m giving you a


    mission.”


    “Your orders, sir?” “You will lead our envoys to the twenty-eight nations to negotiate with their heads-of-


    state. Tell each of them to give up five cities as war reparations. If they refuse, the ck Dragon army


    will swoop in and annihte them all.”


    Henry froze. Hesitantly, he double-checked the order. “Are you for real?”


    James threw him a nce. “What do you think?” “Understood.”


    Henry straightened his back and spoke in a clear voice, “I will lead the envoys to the twenty eight


    nations. If I can’t resolve this issue in three days, I’ll be back to receive my punishment.”

    After receiving James’ orders, Henry swiftly left.


    Meanwhile, James yawned.


    He had not had a good night’s sleep in days. He then left the building in the military region. As he got


    on a convoy, he spoke to the driver, “Take me to ck Dragon Pce.” “Understood.”


    The driver nodded.


    The ck Dragon Pce was located in the city area of Southern ins City. It was a vi specifically


    constructed for the ck Dragon army’smander-in-chief. This vi was much grander and more


    elegant than the one at the House of Royals. At the moment, many reporters gathered outside the


    ck Dragon Pce. They were here to have an interview with the ck Dragon. They wanted to


    know what happenedst night. Some were war reporters, while others were reporting on the situation


    on the battlefield.


    The convoy arrived at its destination. “Sir, there’s a crowd.”


    James squinted his eyes. He had dozed off.


    He slowly opened his eyes and lifted his head. Seeing the reporters gathered in front of the ck


    Dragon Pce, he frowned and muttered, “They really are relentless.”


    “Should we order the army to clear them out?”


    James shook his head and said, “Never mind, just make a U-turn. Just find me a ce to sleep in


    peace.”


    The convoy turned back.
