Today was an extremely crucial day for Aquilandia.
The border military camp of Aquilandia staged an ambush against the King of the West from Glavale. This was a major operation that could be compared to national-level strategic events! If it succeeded, not only would they avenge the former Deputy Commander of the War Department who had been killed years ago, but it would also slow down Glavale's rising momentum. That would be a huge win for them.
Even if Glavale's Hall were to express anger afterward, they wouldn't be too concerned. At most, Glavale would make a few threats or demand some compensation. After all, this was a joint operation by seven or eight countries ranked in the top ten globally. Glavale didn't have the strength to declare war against all of them simultaneously.
However, if they failed, the situation wouldn't be so simple.
Putting aside Glavale's Hall's attitude, Commander Gardner was enough to give Aquilandia a headache. Based on their knowledge of this person, he might just declare war on Aquilandia.
Thinking about the renowned and terrifying Army of Bloodshadow, everyone couldn't help but feel a sense of dread. While their national Army of Buzzard was powerful, it was still several orders of magnitude weaker when compared to the Army of Bloodshadow from Glavale.
"Prime Minister, call Lord Rukchi and check the situation. Why haven't we received any updates for so long?" Fecocci, seated on a pure gold throne, looked to the elderly man on his left and spoke.
"Understood!" Aquilandia Prime Minister Caruno nodded and took out his cell phone.
Just then, Caruno's phone rang, and he answered. It was Rukchi calling.
"Lord Rukchi, I was just about to call you. Our Sovereign is eager to know the situation on your end." Caruno inquired after pressing the answer button.
Whatever Rukchi said on the other end of the call, Caruno's face turned ashen, and he shivered uncontrollably, listening for less than a minute. After taking a deep breath and hesitating for a moment, he spoke into the phone, "I understand. You wait for my response."
After hanging up, he took another deep breath and looked at Fecocci, then spoke with difficulty, "Your Majesty, Lord Rukchi and his team have failed!"
Upon hearing this, the hall was filled with gasps of shock. It seemed that the more they feared something, the more likely it was to happen.
Fecocci let out a heavy sigh and had an unpleasant expression. He then fixed his gaze on Caruno and asked, "Out of the forty mid to late-stage War Emperors, including twenty God-Emperor-level experts, they couldn't catch him, and he escaped alone?"
"Did Glavale's Hall send any late-stage God-Emperor-level experts to rescue him?" Fecocci inquired further.
"Nobody went to rescue him, and he didn't escape!" Caruno shook his head in response.
"Prime Minister, what is the situation exactly?" one of Aquilandia's cabinet members asked urgently.
"Your Majesty, the situation is much worse than we anticipated!" Caruno continued, swallowing nervously.
"Up to this point, among the forty attackers, besides Lord Rukchi, all the others were killed by him alone, with no survivors!"
"What?!" The hall resounded with gasps of astonishment, and everyone was wide-eyed.
"It's impossible, absolutely impossible!" a cabinet member named Andra exclaimed loudly. He couldn't believe it at all. Based on the information they had about Commander Gardner of Glavale, he had only reached the level of a half-step War God-Emperor. Even if he could challenge beyond his level, it would only be the initial stage of War God-Emperor's power. How could he single-handedly kill twenty God-Emperor-level experts?
