The others remained silent after hearing what Caspian said.
What he said made sense. The leader of the enemy's troops was personally leading the battalion. Caspian should also be able to do it since he was the Diatoran God of War.
"Robert and Viktor are both known as the invincible Champions. This is the perfect opportunity to fight it out!" Caspian said.
"Lord Caspian, I'm willing to go to Southlake City with you," Benjamin said.
"There's no need to. You should just stay and command the battle at South Aridlands," Caspian rejected his offer.
"Lord Caspian, even you're going to the front line when you're the head of the Five War Gods. So why can't I?" Benjamin asked.
"If both of us leave the South Aridlands War Zone, who will be here to command the battle when something goes wrong?" Caspian asked.
"Roger that. I'll obey your instructions." Benjamin nodded, not daring to go against Caspian's wishes.
Then, Benjamin asked again, "When do you plan to make the move?"
"Time waits for no man; I'm going now," Caspian said.
"I'll have a VIP car send you to Southlake City," Benjamin said.
"There's no need. I'll just go there in the armored vehicle," Caspian refused the offer once again.
"Take care, Lord Caspian!" Benjamin said.
"I hope you can do a good job in commanding the battle in South Aridlands," Caspian said before leaving the command center.
Benjamin, John, and the others ran after him.
They were preparing to send Caspian off.
Caspian actually had something else in mind when he proposed to go down to Southlake City in person.
He knew very well that the plan to rescue Alicia was very difficult and that he would have to confront Robert head-on when the time came.
Caspian had planned to take Phoenix Vanguard with him to compete against Robert in person.
However, he could not reveal it.
He knew that John and the others would definitely raise their objections again.
That was why Caspian thought of this plan.
As long as he could go to Southlake City, no one could interfere with his plan.
Macy and the armored soldiers were waiting for him outside.
"Return to Southlake City with me," Caspian said as he looked at Macy and the others.
"Yes, sir!" Macy and the others responded.
Their duty was to protect Caspian's safety.
As for what he planned to do, they would not ask at all. They had no right to question him.
…
Meanwhile, the Stewart family was restless over the captivity of Alicia and Henry.
"We don't even know where Caspian is. We can't reach him as well. How are we supposed to rescue Alicia and Henry?" Melinda was utterly anxious.
"The only option left is to find Willow. She might be able to contact Caspian," Marilyn said.
"That's right! Willow is Caspian's wife. She would definitely know where Caspian is now," Melinda said. She had a moment of sudden realization.
"Have you guys forgotten? Willow no longer has anything to do with our family. Do you think that she'll help us?" Donald asked.
"Willow and Caspian might not hold a grudge against us over such trifling matters. Alicia and Henry are in grave danger now. If Caspian finds out about this, he'll surely come forward to their rescue," Carl said.
"Carl, please contact Willow and have her pass the message to Caspian," Donald said eagerly.
"Okay, I'll ask her," Carl said before dialing Willow's cell phone.
