Chapter 271 By Themselves
“I’m here!” Wylie politely responded to the call.
“How are your preparations for dealing with the Eight Noble Lineages?” asked Cole with a frown.
“Everything is ready, sir! We can even launch the attack tonight! All that’s left is for you to give the order to do so,” answered Wylie.
Cole stood up and declared, “Well done. We’ll deal with these pesky elite families first before we turn both Azure Flames and Skyfeather Pavilion into our own. After that, it’s only a matter of time to deal with Caspian alone.”
The entire region of Naporia was surging with ill intentions as the entirety of Galecrest had mobilized its forces.
Everyone within Naporia could feel that there would be bloodshed tonight.
It would be a sleepless night for many.
Midnight had arrived.
The sky was covered with clouds and further shrouded Naporia in darkness.
The atmosphere was suffocating and depressing.
Meanwhile, at the Landor Residence….
The building had a modernized and luxurious design, which seemed like the complete opposite compared to the Zann family’s Swallow Castle.
Georgie was sitting on a sofa with a grave expression on his face.
Surrounding him were other powerful figures within Naporia.
Georgie had been having trouble with his appetite and sleep recently, as he felt that Galecrest might strike at any point in time.
He then summoned all the other heads to discuss their next course of action.
It was Georgie who had approached Caspian for cooperation and had taken the initiative to appoint him as the alliance leader.
And he had now become the target for Galecrest.
It was why he was hesitant about revealing his hand for the entire time..

Georgie knew he would be in the most trouble, considering he was the first one pushing for the agenda.
Georgie turned to the middle–aged butler beside him and asked, “Do you think security will be enough with all the men arranged around us?”
“No problems, sir! I’ve assembled every man that the Landor family had trained as per your instructions. We can guarantee this place will be safe!” answered the butler.
Georgie nodded, although he was sure his men wouldn’t be enough to fend off Galecrest’s forces if they were to attack.
“My fellow gentlemen, how are your preparations?” asked Georgie as he looked around.
“Relax, Georgie. I’ve brought plenty of my highly trained men with me.”
“Galecrest’s men won’t be going home alive if they dare to attack us.
“With the seven of us united together, we have nothing to be afraid of!”
The six men around Georgie all spoke out with confidence.
They had gathered their finest men in order to fend off Galecrest..
The Landor residence was now secure, with plenty of men planted all around the area.
“Where’s Vermont? Is he not coming?” asked the head of the Hersey family.
They were surprised that the Zann family was not present even though they were the strongest among them.
Georgie looked up at his butler. “I’ve already instructed my What did
en to invite” he say?”
The butler politely answered, “I never had the chance to see Mr. Zann Senior at all. He seemed to have been busy dealing with some matters.”
Georgie’s expression turned for the worst.
“Just what the hell is Vermont doing? Is he chickening out now that our enemies are coming for us?”
“Maybe he’s plotting something behind our backs and just waiting to swoop in once the battle is over. I wonder if he could guarantee that his own family would be safe from Galecrest’s attack?”
“That won’t be possible. Galecrest wouldn’t possibly let any of us go, including the Zanns.”
The men all spoke out with anger.
