The Protector (The Return Of The God of War) novel Chapter 2742

Chapter 2742 Continue To Retreat

Initially, the army was still able to understand the reasons for retreating.

However, the men could not help but feel disappointed when the situation seemed to be continuing indefinitely.

Although they were already retreating to the eleventh defense barrier, Levi still did not seem to have any plans other than to continue retreating and harassing the enemy’s troops.

That was hugely distressing to everyone.

If the commander was unable to come up with a solution, there was no use keeping him!

Whoever was able to solve the imminent problem should be the commander instead!

A leader was one who knew the way and showed the way.

It seemed like Levi’s abilities were just good enough for him to be a military strategist and not a commander.

“I think Levi is more suitable to join the strategy team and contribute ideas as a military strategist. We should elect a new commander instead!”

“How about this? Let’s submit a petition first, since it’ll take some time for a decision to be made. By then, we’ll probably have retreated even more under Levi’s leadership!”

“That’s right! He’s totally at a loss now. All he does is to order us to retreat! Since the situation doesn’t seem to be changing anytime soon, we should just petition for a change of commander now! Is everyone agreeable to that? Those who agree, let’s do it together!”

Meanwhile, Levi was completely unaware that most of the lieutenants had submitted a joint petition for a change of commander.

The man was still thinking hard for a solution to lure Sacroria out.

The alliance had already abandoned the tenth defense barrier.

Very soon, the Lab of Gods’ army would be pursuing their retreating forces.

Boom!

However, the landmines that Levi had planted exploded at that instant, causing a huge toll on the Lab of Gods’ army.

However, the impact from the explosion was still not severe enough to inflict substantial damage to the enemy.

Next up would be the eleventh defense barrier, also the most important defense barrier as it connected seven nations.

If the army was not able to hold up that defense barrier, those seven nations would be in danger. It would be equivalent to opening their doors and inviting the Lab of Gods’ army in.

If that happened, the Lab of Gods would suddenly have seven more options to choose from.

There was no way that the alliance would be able to defend those seven nations simultaneously.

All seven nations would end up in peril.

That was not an outcome anyone wanted.

After all, everyone in Jipsdale had been evacuated to those seven nations.

Most likely, he would still not be able to come up with a solution.

He would probably choose to give the eleventh defense barrier up and evacuate the seven nations, exactly like what he did at the tenth defense barrier.

The lieutenants were sure that there was nothing Levi could do about it.

He would not face the Lab of Gods head-on, and other than sending troops to harass the enemy, there was nothing Levi could do.

Indeed, after retreating to the eleventh defense barrier, Levi did not give orders for the army to fight to their death there.

Instead, he told everyone to stand by and wait for his orders.

Judging by the situation, it was very likely that Levi would give orders to retreat once again.

It was just like what everyone had expected.

While observing the Lab of Gods’ movements, the lieutenants keenly waited for the decision from the higher-ups on whether or not to change the commander.

Levi was also hesitating.

He understood the importance of the eleventh defense barrier and was wondering if he should gather all forces and go all out in a life-or-death battle or if there were other solutions…

For example, continue retreating and think of other plans…
