Chapter 188 Geomancy Master
“Mr. Shaw, are you sure?” the soldier asked curiously.
He didn’t want to die.
“Don’t worry. Just do as I say and nothing bad will happen!” Henry continued.
But he was lying as there was no way to change the situation anymore.
The soldier had no choice but to follow Henry’s order.
However, this time, the White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise simultaneously attacked the Azure Dragon.
The Azure Dragon suffered a devastating defeat!
The soldier watched helplessly as the piece got eaten and felt a sense of impending doom.
Just as he prepared to escape, a massive stone came crashing down, turning him into a pulp!
Seeing the three bodies on the ground, everyone suddenly realized that Henry had been lying!
“You deceitful old man! How dare you trick us!”
“Yeah! How dare you act confident when you’re not even sure!”
“Damn it! And you call yourself a master?”
“This old guy doesn’t have any skills. He doesn’t even care about our comrades‘ lives!”
“Don’t believe a word he says anymore!”
The special forces soldiers were furious, ready to lay hands on Henry.
Seeing this, Henry immediately hid behind Taylor.
“Mr. Taylor, you must protect me! I came all the way from Tigra. How could I be a fraud? The constellation board’s situation changes constantly, and it’s beyond my control!” Henry
pleaded.
“Bob, calm your men down. Compensation will be given to the families of the fallen soldiers!” Taylor knew Henry wasn’t a fraud.
But his three consecutive failures had indeed left everyone disappointed.
“I can calm them down, but I demand a replacement. I won’t trust this old man anymore!” Bob said angrily.
His three subordinates died in vain.

“Alright, let’s call it a day. I’ll consult with King Kan and see what’s next,” Taylor replied.
Everyone was quite frightened, hence it wasn’t suitable to continue.
They could only retreat now and carefully plan their next moves.
“Soldiers, let’s all calm down. The losses were inevitable. Rest assured that those who have
been sacrificed will get compensation. Let’s retreat now and figure out the next step later,”
Bob said to his soldiers.
Though Taylor was his superior, Bob had to take responsibility for his subordinates.
Otherwise, he’d be nothing more than a figurehead.
The disk returned to its original state once again.
Henry was too shaken and dared not attempt further.
“I wasn’t prepared today. I’ll return when I’ve thought of a foolproof way,” he explained,
trying to save some dignity.
But Bob wasn’t buying it.
“How’s it going?” Caspian asked.
“It seems they couldn’t crack the puzzle,” he remarked.
“I noticed that they were missing three individuals! Perhaps an accident occurred, or they were left behind to guard the place,” she analyzed.
