Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 3301

Hepburn's face changed dramatically. “The enemy is powerful. We've got to leave.” “We can't leave!” Nathan said firmly.

What? There are so many enemies coming, yet we're not leaving?

Hepburn stared at Nathan in astonishment. “The enemy must have realized the importance of God's Palm. They want to seize the high ground,” said Nathan.

“If we let them seize the high ground, their army will be able to commandeer, and our alliance will suffer. That's why we can't retreat!” Hepburn was dumbfounded.

“But we came here to survey the terrain. With just a few of us, and as Colin just said, there might not be ten thousand enemies, but there are still several thousand of them!”

Nathan said, “To be precise, it's me, Colin, Sevan, and Elite Eight who will stay behind.”

“Take a few of your guards and hurry back to report the situation. Have Leopold and Wolfric send reinforcements.”

Hepburn listened to Nathan and was told to leave first. She instinctively refused.

“No, you're the commander-in-chief of the alliance. If you haven't left, how can I go first?” Nathan urged, “The situation is urgent, so cut the chatter and hurry up. I need you to go back and report the news.” For the first time, Hepburn saw Nathan speak to her with such severity. She gritted her teeth and finally nodded. “Alright, I'll go back and report. But don't force yourself to hold on either. If it's not possible, just abandon this place. We can lose this location, but the alliance cannot afford to lose you.”

Nathan said, “I know what to do.” Hepburn nodded. “Alright, take care.” With that, she hurriedly left with a few guards in tow.

At the scene, only Nathan, Colin, Sevan, and the Elite Eight remained. Nathan swept his gaze over his subordinates.

“Brothers, I have never thought that we'd be fighting side by side once again.”
