Chapter 760: Hidden Behind the Scenes, Controlling the Overall Situation!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Maddox Johnstone stayed behind on the rooftop and bowed to send Braydon Neal off. “Yes, sir!”
Maddox didn’t plan to sleep tonight!
He wanted to cultivate.
This was how he had been over the years. For the sake of martial arts, he had given up everything.
After giving up so much, Maddox had the strength he had today, and he deserved it.
Back then, Maddox was able to sit on the position of the first regimental commander in the second legion of the Northern Army. His talent, strength, and battle achievements had surpa.s.sed tens of thousands of people.
According to the rules of the Northern Army, if the legion commander died, the first regimental commander would be the successor!
The first regimental commander of each of the ten legions was the successor of the legion’s commander!
This was the rule!
Braydon returned to the living room and leaned on the sofa. Sadie Dudley had already fallen asleep.
The quiet night made Braydon feel calm.
However, Braydon had the power of the world. It was very difficult for him to relax.
At the door of the presidential suite, a man in black quietly appeared.
Braydon had already sensed his aura.
“Harlan, come in!”
Braydon spoke.
Only then did Harlan Jones push the door open and enter. He bowed and cupped his hands, “Harlan Jones greets the commander!”
“What is it?”
Braydon lay on the sofa and gently closed his eyes. His thin lips moved slightly, and his voice was very soft, as if he was about to fall asleep.
Harlan was the deputy leader of the dark division. The members of the dark division in the three provinces of the Central Plains were all under his jurisdiction. He was a veritable big shot in the capital and held real power.
“The capital wants to invite you back!”
His soft words did not get a response.
Actually, Harlan knew that there was no need to even mention this. Braydon would not go to the capital.
Braydon had sealed the Northern King Sword and would not ask about the domestic affairs anytime soon.
If he wanted Braydon to go to the capital, he had to first reactivate the Northern King Sword.
Unfortunately, under the premise of all this, Sadie’s wellbeing came first.
Harlan saw that Braydon had fallen asleep, and his footsteps were soundless as he left the living room.
Braydon lay on the sofa with his eyes closed. “Secretly order the War G.o.d of the nation, Jonah Shaw, to recall the nine legions of the Sanguine Army and head to the southeast!”
“VPR qirl”
Joy flashed in Harlan’s eyes. He turned around and cupped his fists.
He was afraid that Braydon would choose to respond to the capital with indifference.
If that was the case, the capital would not be able to do anything to Braydon!
Braydon closed his eyes and turned around lazily. He spoke again, “Duke Lowe is old, and it is time for him to retire. In the name of the Northern Army, I propose to the capital that the position of Right Duke be taken by Westley!
“The position of Left Duke has been vacant for several years. Now, Frediano will take over!
“The Sovereign King of Perpetual Darkness, Harvey Lay, will be the southern guardian!
“Hendrix Bailey, the leader of the Gray Wolf Army, will be the northern guardian!”
Braydon had once said at the peak of Mount Tanish that if he succeeded in carrying the fate of the country, he would be granted t.i.tles. Now, the Northern King was finally revealing his terrifying side!
Harlan was stunned.
Was it something Braydon had thought of on the spot?
Perhaps not!
Braydon had been waiting for this moment for years.
Harlan broke out in cold sweat. He knew what these four positions meant!
Those were positions with real power!
Moreover, since ancient times, the country had been divided into north and south.
The southern guardian was in charge of half of the southern region. With him as the leader, his authority would be monstrous.
It was the same for the northern guardian!
Both positions were extremely important and could not be easily given to others.
There was also the position of Left and Right Duke in the capital’s main hall. It was self-evident how important it was.
The 24 divisions in the capital were under Dominic Lowe’s jurisdiction.
However, from today onward, there would be a change!
The curtain of the Northern Army had been completely lifted.
Harlan felt a little guilty and asked tentatively, “Commander, will the capital agree to this?”
“Confer them the t.i.tles in the name of the Northern Army, otherwise they will not agree!”
Braydon opened his eyes and stared at Harlan.
There was no need to worry about whether the capital would agree to the matter of conferring the four of them these t.i.tles.
He should be worried about whether Harvey and the others would listen to him!
Harvey did not care about being conferred t.i.tles like this.
This b.a.s.t.a.r.d was a madman who had no fear and qualms about anything.
There was nothing in the world that he did not dare to do!
However, the southern guardian t.i.tle was not a disgrace to Harvey.
Harlan thought for a moment and realized that he was overthinking it!
With the current situation in the world, the powerful families and aristocratic families had already become a threat.
In the entire world, only the Northern Army could unite and conquer the world!
The person Braydon had named to be conferred t.i.tles must be given the t.i.tles in the capital!
These four ruthless people would be the core figures who would destroy the two major ent.i.ties.
Harlan left the room and quietly closed the door.
However, he vaguely heard a cold voice coming from the room. “The time has come to wash the 24 divisions in blood!”
The sentence filled with killing intent definitely came from Braydon’s mouth.
Harlan’s eyes revealed a look of shock. He was certain that this secret order was not issued to him!
Who was the secret order issued to?
Far away in the capital, the main hall of the governor office was brightly lit.
On the golden dragon chair, Westley Hader, who was dressed in black, sat at the head of the table. Below him stood the hundred War G.o.ds of the capital garrison, as if they were discussing a major matter.
In fact, all the major organizations in the capital were extremely busy.
On the night of Braydon’s t.i.tle conferment ceremony, all the powerful families and aristocratic families in the capital had evacuated. They had returned to all parts of the world and were not following the capital’s orders.
This in itself was a sign of danger!
The capital had already sent many envoys to negotiate, but there were minimal results.
Westley sat at the head of the table and listened to the report calmly without smiling. He took out his watch, and the screen flashed with a faint red light.
It was a message from Braydon.
It was just a short sentence.
‘The time has come to wash the 24 divisions in blood!’
The capital’s 24 divisions, other than the governor office, were all filled with martial artists from powerful families and were almost completely controlled by them.
They had to be removed at the roots.
After Westley received the secret order, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.
Frodo Lance, who was reporting the situation below, said, “According to the report of Commander Yates in Eastern Hansworth, a total of 20 powerful families have returned. The martial artists of the powerful families have ignored the ban. In just a few days, there have been more than 100 incidents of martial artists hurting people… Governor?”
Frodo, who was reporting the matter, was stunned when he saw Westley smiling like a peach blossom.
This smile was very abnormal!
The other War G.o.ds under his command also felt their hair stand on end.
How many years had it been since they had seen the governor so angry?
Something big would definitely happen next!
Everyone thought that Westley was angry.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes.
Westley suddenly stood up and walked down the stage with his hands behind his back. He said in a low voice, “In my name, invite Crown Prince Syrus
Yanagi, Commander Tobey Lapras, Commander Bailey, War G.o.d Shaw, and Lord Jadanza here for a chat!”
“What are you going to do?” Tristan Yandell was terrified.
Westley smiled coldly.. “We are going to wash the 24 divisions with blood!”
