Chapter 661 Draconia’s Last Stand
The group broke into heated discussion. Many of them were already thinking about leaving.
Cayden and his friends remained calm.

Steven continued, “The toxic fog and the blocked communications are obviously the work of the God Eaters. Whether we fight our way out or keep searching is up to you.”
He looked at the group.
“But in my opinion, whoever is behind this is watching us right now. They’re probably preparing something big. Tomorrow could be our toughest battle yet, so we need to make a decision now.”
Some people immediately grew upset.
“If we’d known this mission would be this dangerous, we never would’ve come! We’ve already lost so many people for nothing. We don’t have enough fighters left!”
“He’s right. We should break out while we still can! If we keep this up, who knows how many of us will make it home alive?”
Facing an endless horde of beasts was enough to terrify anyone.
Staying here was practically suicide.
Cayden cleared his throat. “Quiet.”
The voices gradually died down. Cayden continued, “If we retreat now, wouldn’t everyone who died have died for nothing?”
Someone immediately shot back, “And if we stay here and more people die, won’t their deaths be just as pointless?”
Cayden’s expression turned grim.
“Since we’ve come this far, I’ll tell you the truth. Retreating isn’t an option. This mission isn’t about ki” beasts. It’s about the fragments of the Ember Sacred Sword.
“I’ll make this clear. This mission came directly from Divine Eternal Hall. The moment we accepted it and entered these mountains, we were expected to be ready to die.
“Anyone who deserts will answer directly to Divine Eternal Hall. Think carefully before you make b
choice.”
The entire group was stunned.
“This mission came directly from Divine Eternal?!”
Steven was surprised as well. They had previously suspected that the mission might be connected to Divine Eternal. He hadn’t expected Cayden to admit it so openly.

Of course, Divine Eternal probably hadn’t personally issued the order. More likely, it had come from one of the highest–ranking figures in Divine Eternal Hall.
Still, Cayden had made it clear.
They were essentially a suicide squad.

“According to Divine Eternal Hall’s intelligence, fragments of the sword are hidden at one of these mission sites.
“We may not answer directly to the military, but we’re still citizens of Draconia. When our nation’s survival and future are at stake, we have a duty to stand and fight!”
“If the Solaria Mountains really are where the Ember Sacred Sword fragments have appeared, and we leave now only for the God Eaters to take them, the consequences for Draconia will be devastating.
