The Legendary Man novel Chapter 614

Chapter 614 Do You Believe It

As the lead vehicle and command vehicle turned turtle one after another, the entire convoy quickly changed their formation. The tens of vehicles that remained quickly surrounded the two overturned vehicles as flares were continuously shot into the sky.

“Everyone, put on your thermal imaging goggles!” No sooner had Maddox spoken than a bayonet pierced through the car window and into his neck.

The next moment, amidst the illumination of consecutive exploding flashbangs, eight masked figures charged into the troop just like fearless executioners.

Against the masked men’s blades, the troops’ defensive weapons failed to make any difference. Necks, waists, lower bodies, wrists…

Anywhere that wasn’t protected by body armor would naturally end up being a target of the masked men. Moreover, the powerful guns that they wielded were completely useless against the unknown attackers.

With every flash of the blade, a soldier would be cut down. In the end, the field was covered with the corpses of more than six hundred men in less than ten minutes.

“Take a video to show our work to the boss,” one of the masked men ordered. At the Eastern Army’s barracks in Doveston, Karl, chomping on a cigar, was staring at the soldiers beside him with furrowed brows. “What’s wrong? Are you still not able to contact Maddox?”

“Reporting in, Commander. We’re still unable to get in touch with the special forces.” “Continue investigating!”

“Yes, Commander!” As the signalman turned and left, another hand opened the door just when he was about to close it.

“Reporting in!” “What is it?” Karl gave the adjutant a look of displeasure.

“Commander, we have received confirmation that our special forces have been totally annihilated within the borders of Merania!”

Crack! The desk in front of Karl was smashed to smithereens with a punch from him. The adjutant who was standing by the door instinctively recoiled with his face turning pale in fear.

After all, he was the one who dealt with the corpses of the four personal guards. After serving under Karl for such a long time, he knew the latter’s methods well and could tell Aidan wasn’t the man behind the killings.

When he saw the look on his subordinate’s face, Karl let out a long sigh with his eyes closed.

“Okay. You’re dismissed.”

“Yes, Commander!”

The office door had barely closed when Karl made a call on his satellite phone.

“Aidan, as per our agreement, once I destroy Northern Crimson Prison, Remdik must make its move.”

Over the phone, Karl could hear the noisy background. It sounded as if Aidan was in a club.

“Karl, why are you in such a rush? Considering the current situation in Chanaea, Asura’s Office is not a threat to you at all. Hence, you should be relaxing instead.”

“Aidan! F*ck you, stop playing games with me!” Karl bellowed through his gritted teeth.

“If you think I have no one to rely on after falling out with Asura’s Office, think again! The only way you can force me into yielding is if there’s a repeat of the battle of River Onxy. If you dare pressure me into a corner, I’ll have no qualms about destroying the Medved Army!”

On the other end of the line, Aidan fell silent for more than ten seconds before speaking.

“Karl, don’t worry. Now that we’re allies, Remdik will try its best to help you. All you need to do is to tie down Asura’s Office and the Yaleview Army. As for the rest, you can leave it to us.”

“Us?”

Karl felt a sense of dread the moment he heard the word.

“Aidan, who is this ‘us’?”

“Karl, that’s something you don’t have to concern yourself with. Anyway, I gotta go, as I’m busy.”

When the call-end tone rang out, Karl stared at the satellite phone with his eyebrows tightly knitted.

Previously, his agreement with Aidan involved Aidan helping him complete his scheme for Chanaea, and in return, he would hand over Doveston.

Nonetheless, there was no way the ambitious Karl had any real intention of seceding such a large piece of territory to Remdik.

In his mind, he was just leveraging the strength of external factions to advance his own interest. Once his goal was achieved, he would turn on them by bringing the full might of Chanaea upon Remdik.

However, it was now clear to him that Aidan was aiming for more than just Doveston.
