Chapter 203 Steve Morris Is Shocked
Late at night, Iwan stood on the balcony alone. He had told Jayna about his plan. Tomorrow morning, he would be going to the north of the Dragon Kingdom. He wouldn't go to the External Battlefield, even if the situation in those places was already quite severe now.
"The oldest powerhouses of the Dragon Kingdom, you must win!" Iwan looked at the distant night sky over the battlefield in the External Regions. He kept in touch with Ivy all the time. If those senior powerhouses could not resist the attack, the Heaven Domain would give them full support. The External Battlefield was now already daytime, and the morning sun had just risen (because of time differences).
"I hope nothing happens! I hope nothing happens to any one of the four seniors!" Earlier, Iwan had patiently comforted Evan by saying that everything would be fine, but things changed dramatically on the battlefield, and those overseas God Emperors were not easy to deal with. In fact, every one of them ruled an area, and none of them were really weak. Therefore, Iwan was ready to reinforce those seniors on the battlefield at any time. He had been building his influence there for years, so he still had a lot of backup measures yet to use. If something happened to the four seniors, he would not hide those measures.
At the moment, Iwan was looking in the distant direction where the External Battlefield was.
His eyesight crazily traveled from Gotham tens of thousands of miles over the mountains, across the seas, and finally to the sky above the External Battlefield.
At the moment, it was already a few minutes past 6 a.m. on the battlefield, but the sky above was still dark with very dense clouds. Reinforced by the billows of gunpowder smoke, the battlefield looked deathly tense.
Those independent powerhouses and small groups who kept struggling in normal times were not seen on today's battlefield. They were all well-informed. They had learned that the Overseas Alliance was about to battle against the Dragon Kingdom again, so they were all hiding now. And last night, the three Super Gods of the Heaven Domain-Master Dark, Master War, and Master Kill- had made a breakthrough and reached the Emperor level. Instantly, the overseas Heaven Domain got four Super Gods. Apart from them, the Heaven Domain also had its lord-the peerless powerhouse who was stronger than anyone on the External Battlefield.
Therefore, every spot on the External Battlefield looked dangerous and tense. Now the top four Emper-level powerhouses of the Dragon Kingdom, i.e. the top four Super Gods of the past, were all sitting with Ivy in the office of the Heaven Domain, watching the situation of the battlefield.
Looking so grave, Ivy said, "The Lord has given an order. Once the four seniors of the Dragon Kingdom are defeated, our Heaven Domain should rush to help them, at all costs!"
"Yes!" the top four Emper-level powerhouses stood up and responded. Because of the tension, Slay had returned to the base camp late last night. Therefore, there was a huge screen at the center of the five-person meeting room. On the screen, many helicopters had landed on the stronghold of the Military Headquarters of the Dragon Kingdom. The four Emperor-level powerhouses of the Heaven Domain and Ivy were staring at the screen gravely. Now everyone felt their blood burning with excitement.
...
At the same moment, in one of the forefront strongholds of the Dragon Kingdom on the western coast of the External Battlefield, the three directors in battle robes of the three departments of the Dragon Kingdom with an iron blood saber at their waist got off the helicopter with a solemn face, walking toward the inner part of the stronghold.
The three directors walked very fast with the same solemn expression. When they got off the helicopter, they walked straight toward the combat meeting room where Steve Morris was.
As Vice Marshal of the Military Headquarters, Steve, one in his 70s, now served as Supreme Commander of the Military Headquarters of the Dragon Kingdom on the External Battlefield. At the moment, he was looking at the sand table in front of him gravely. Those around him were a dozen or so Super God-level commanders of the Dragon Kingdom on the External Battlefield. Every one of them was wearing a dark green military uniform and a solemn expression. On the wall right in the front of the over 200-square-meter combat meeting room were 10 big screens, on which the locations of the different forces on the External Battlefield were shown.
And people quickly came in and went out of the huge meeting room every second. They either came in to send information or went out to give tasks. Information was sent in one piece after another, and orders were sent out in succession.
So Steve, now the commander of the Dragon Kingdom on this battlefield, had no time to welcome his three long-time comrades-in-arms. At the moment, he shouted to everyone in the meeting room, "Pack up and bring all your materials. The three old directors have arrived. We'll head for the forefront in 10 minutes. Quickly, quickly, quickly!"
As he spoke, Steve was suddenly relieved. Three peak-stage Emperor-level powerhouses had come here from his motherland. They had been invincible fighters in the past, and they had willingly accepted the fate of stopping being used. Then he was somewhat confident, more than confident than if Rendon was here to help him, and he had never dreamed that Carl would come over to help him. He was quite clear that there were also a lot of things to deal with and many rebellions to suppress in the Dragon Kingdom. And he was satisfied enough with the coming of the three directors.
While he was talking, heavy, powerful rapid footsteps came from the door. The old marshal Steve couldn't help but look at the door, and the others in the room also looked out involuntarily. Then they saw three old men in battle robes with sabers at their waists walking quickly inside. Behind them were 10 Super God-level commanders.
The comers were Bryant Darnell, Terry Liam, and Brandon Turner. Then Steve nodded at them and said with a smile, "Brothers, welcome!"
The three old men nodded. Then Terry eagerly, "Steve, how's the situation now? You give orders, and we three are your hands. No argument! You're familiar with things here!" After Terry finished that, Bryant and Brandon both nodded to agree.
Steve didn't argue but said directly, "Good! Then I won't argue about it. How many powerhouses above the Super-God level have you brought here this time?"
Bryant said solemnly, "32. 10 are from our Military Headquarters, and the other 22 are men of the top six noble families in our motherland... Enough?"
Hearing that, Steve was shocked and immediately asked, "Why so many? God, those noble families in our motherland were willing to send out their men?"
"Hah..." Brandon sneered and said, "They were willing to send out their men? You must be dreaming! Rendon, Rendon took troops to ask for men yesterday. Now there are no top nine noble families in our country. There are only six. The Lord of the Heaven Domain destroyed two, and Rendon removed one. So, don't pity the powerhouses of those families we brought here this time when you use them!"
"What? Three of the top nine noble families were destroyed? How come I don't know? How could this be possible? And the Lord... Lord of the Heaven Domain, he... he has gone to our country?" Steve said with great shock.
Terry frowned deeply and said, "Well, let's talk about it on the way. Let's rush to the frontline. I haven't been to this place for more than 20 years. Let's fight them today when they are unprepared. Speed is precious in war. Quickly!"
Bryant and Brandon nodded to agree.
Without hesitation, Steve took the dozen or so Super God-level commanders in the meeting room and the three former directors to walk outside. When they were outside, military cars had been prepared. The four seniors and these Super Gods and Gods of War got in the cars, heading for the frontline.
Steve, the old marshal, became a little angry, calmed down, and said, "The situation is not good. We've lost a lot, but the number of causalities is not high. Most of our men have been withdrawn from the strongholds our enemies have taken."
Bryant knitted his brows tightly and asked, "So easy? Not many people die?"
Steve nodded with a frown and said, "Right, not many died in battle, mainly because the people of the Heaven Domain were ahead of us. Last night, their top three Super Gods made another breakthrough and became Emperor-level powerhouses. Once they made a breakthrough, their fighting power can be as strong as that of the ordinary powerhouses at the last stage of the Emperor level. And Slay also reached the Emperor level earlier. Currently, apart from the immensely powerful Lord, there are already four Emperor-level powerhouses in the Heaven Domain. These days, ahead of us, they have slowed down the advancing Overseas Alliance. Then we have had time to retreat."
At this point, Steve suddenly paused and asked Bryant, "Bryant, Brandon just said the Lord of the Heaven Domain has gone to Gotham and destroyed two top noble families, right? Why did that happen?"
Bryant said with knitted brows, "Leave it until later. Steve, ask the soldiers on the frontline to notify the four Emperor-level powerhouses of the Heaven Domain, telling them to withdraw. Tell them we've arrived, and thank them. Don't let them fight anymore!"
Terry and Brandon totally agreed with Bryant, nodding. The three old men all looked very grave. The Heaven Domain had interfered. If it got totally involved, the child would be in serious trouble. Now, the three seniors thought of Iwan. Anyway, they didn't want him to get involved.
Steve, who knew nothing about that, was confused, saying, "Bryant, this is good! Our Dragon Kingdom doesn't have many friends here, and those who can come out to help us are fewer. Now the four Super Gods of the Heaven Domain have all reached the Emperor level. With strong fighting power, they can help us! I'm thinking about sending someone to ally with them! With them being ahead of us, we..."
"Stupid! You're stupid, Steve! Don't send anyone to the Heaven Domain to ask for help! Never!" Bryant suddenly changed color and said.
"Uh, what... what's wrong? What... what's wrong with that?" Steve asked with confusion.
Bryant heaved a deep sigh and said with a very complicated look, "Wrong? Of course, it is wrong! It is so wrong! Who do you know the Lord of the Heaven Domain is?"
Steve shook his head.
Bryant took a deep breath and stared into his eyes, saying, "His name is Cliff, and his family name is Iwan!"
"What? His family name is Cliff? Does he have relations with Evan?" Steve instantly widened his eyes. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Bryant nodded and said, "Yes, the child is Evan's grandson! The direct heir of the Cliff family!"
"This... this is impossible! If Evan's grandson were the Lord of the Heaven Domain, then... then... no, no, no! You're lying to me, aren't you?" Steve said with so much disbelief.
At this point, Terry sighed deeply and said, "Steve, Bryant is not lying. It's true. Evan has been away for decades. Five years ago, the Cliff family... had a drastic change. Iwan was kicked out of the family by his stepmother and hunted. When he had nowhere to go, he fled to the External Battlefield. Then he built today's Heaven Domain here within five years!"
Terry paused but then continued, "Steve, the child has a great love for the Dragon Kingdom. Obviously, neither the Cliff family nor the Dragon Kingdom helped him. But since he grew up, he has helped us old people a lot many times. So... we must never drag him in this time. Once the Heaven Domain is viewed as the force of the Dragon Kingdom, the child will be largely restricted. That's too much loss. So we can't use the Heaven Domain!"
Brandon added, "Steve, before we came, the child also gave us a few jars of good wine he stored underground when he saw us off. He's a real peerless genius. By the way, he also gave you one jar, which we brought here. When the battle is over, let's drink it!"
But Steve didn't really hear what Brandon said because the real identity of the Lord of the Heaven Domain had astonished him!
He had been on the External Battlefield, so he knew the Heaven Domain and its lord much more than Bryant, Terry, and Brandon did. The Lord of the Heaven Domain was a real unmatched great genius.
And his real identity was in fact the grandson of the general of the Dragon Kingdom... Steve was so shocked at this moment.
And he was also deeply moved because the Dragon Kingdom had such a real unrivaled genius. Then he decided that he would never drag the Heaven Domain in again! Never! They could no
longer ask the younger generation for help. Instead, they, the old men, should fight for the younger generation! They should make a better future for them through fighting!
