The Protector (The Return Of The God of War) novel Chapter 2651

Chapter 2651 They Had To

After learning what was going on, he sent his men out right away to buy all the materials.

Those materials wouldn’t do much good to Erudia at that moment, but it was still extremely precious.

Lab of Gods could definitely use them.

Buying a heap of materials at the lowest price and using those same materials to create weapons against Erudia.

It was almost too good to be true.

That was definitely something the citizens of Erudia weren’t expecting.

They didn’t think that Lab of Gods would be that cruel.

“Ah, I think it’s better if we keep them instead of selling them. What if we need to use those materials in the future?”

Drew seemed troubled at the time.

He didn’t want to sell those materials anymore. It was fine for them to keep the materials at hand, even if they had stopped the construction.

The damage was already done, and selling those materials at a lower price wouldn’t actually help that much.

Hence, he thought it was better to just keep them at hand.

“Yeah, let’s not sell them.”

Drew’s eyes shone with determination.

“What’s the point of keeping them? We have no use for them right now, so they’re nothing but scrap metal. Moreover, we have to make up for the loss that the entire country has incurred. We should sell every single ounce of material we have with us to make up for that loss as best as we can.”

“He’s right. Why are we keeping them? Please don’t tell me you’re still thinking about building those shelters.”

Naturally, the others were against Drew’s decision.

“I just think that it’s a waste. It’s true that the price they offered is pretty decent, but we’re still incurring a huge loss.”

Drew was exasperated because there was nothing they could do to turn things around.

Nicholas sighed and commented, “How I wish Crown King never told us anything about this. We won’t suffer any loss if that were the case.”

Chandler chimed in, “Yeah, we could’ve dealt with the threat those Warmachines pose at the last minute, even if he never told us anything. We’ll incur a loss, but it won’t nearly be as grave as this one.”

Craig grinned bitterly and shared, “I actually had my men crunch the numbers. The ratio of the loss we’re suffering now to the loss we would have incurred if we knew nothing was thirty thousand to one.

“In other words, we are losing thirty thousand times the money we would’ve lost if we were unaware of the situation.”
