Salute To The General

Mentzer snorted coldly. "He's using a carrot-and-stick approach to make us submit!"

Fermin declared, "How could we be frightened by a mere earthling? Since he dares to kill our messenger, he should be ready to pay the price! I suggest we band together and launch an attack on Divine Realm, kill him, and then we can jointly govern Divine Realm." Upon hearing that, Lucius couldn't help but feel moved.

They all hailed from the beautiful and bountiful Divine Realm. Even though they each ruled over a planet as their own territory, they wanted Divine Realm.

After all, how could the barren planets with harsh environments they ruled over be compared to Divine Realm?

Besides, they had feelings for Divine Realm. Who wouldn't long to return home in glory after wandering abroad for a long time?

They didn't dare to entertain such thoughts before.

Suddenly, they heard that Medille, who had been oppressing them, was taken out and Divine Realm was thrown into complete chaos. Naturally, they harbored the idea of returning to Divine Realm.

In their eyes, an earthling like Nathan didn't deserve to lord over Divine Realm.

Thus, when Fermin suggested that everyone should snatch back Divine Realm, Lucius was tempted.

While he was ambitious, he was also suspicious. He preferred to plan thoroughly before taking action and was not particularly fond of taking risks.

He still felt somewhat uncertain deep down about the joint attack on Divine Realm.

Therefore, he turned his head toward the only female among the Four Emperors, Lola. "Lola, what do you think?"

Lola maintained her usual calm and composed demeanor. She was idly playing with her colorful fingernails as she casually said, "I, too, want to invade Divine Realm, defeat Nathan, and take control of the place. However, let's not forget Nathan has the ability to take down Medille. If we rush into an attack without fully understanding his background, aren't we risking a major loss?"

These words struck a chord in Lucius' heart.

Lucius said in frustration, "That's exactly what I'm worried about. It's said that he defeated Medille head-on. If that's true, we may not be his match even if we join forces!"

Upon hearing that, Mentzer and Fermin frowned.

Lola chuckled lightly. "If Nathan can conquer Divine Realm, he must have defeated Medille head-on."

Again, the others frowned.

Lucius asked, "Are you saying that our desire to return to Divine Realm, to defeat Nathan, and to take control of our world is an impossible task now?" Lola chuckled. "Not entirely."

The somewhat disheartened Lucius and his companions couldn't help but brighten up upon hearing Lola's words.

Lola smiled and said, "If Nathan was

able to conquer Divine Realm, I believe he must have defeated Medille. However, Medille's strength is formidable, a fact we have all witnessed Do you think Nathan didn't pay a price for defeating Medille? I learned that Nathan passed out after the battle ended. He was unconscious for several days before he woke up. According to somewhat unreliable intel, he was seriously injured. In fact, he's frail even after regaining consciousness. It will take a very long time for him to recuperate and gradually recover. He's likely in a phase of recovery right now. If that's true, then we have

a hope of winning."

Lucius' eyes lit up.

Mentzer's and Fermin's eyes also lit up with excitement.

With a grin, Lucius said, "I see. All we need to do is figure out whether Nathan is seriously injured and whether he is recovering. Then we can decide if we should launch an attack on Divine Realm!"

Lola nodded. "Yes! However, figuring out Nathan's current health condition is indeed a significant challenge. He is surrounded by numerous strong subordinates who protect him closely. He also commands a large number of armies from various races." After a few seconds of contemplation, Lucius sneered, "I have a way!"

Upon hearing that, Lola and the others all turned to look at Lucius.

Lucius narrowed his eyes and said, "Didn't Nathan kill our messenger, Feyman, and then reward us with a batch of goods? He's using a carrot-and-stick approach, warning us not to cause trouble and trying to win us over to pay tribute to him, right? In that case, we'll take advantage of the situation, On the surface, we'll appear willing to submit and pay tribute to him. When the time comes for us four to meet him, we'll see if he's a true hero or just a paper tiger. There's no way he can hide from our eagle eyes."

Lola and the others all thought that was a good idea.

However, Lola also had her worries. "What if Nathan is really powerful? If the four of us go to him to pledge our allegiance, what if he seizes the opportunity to take us all down?"

Lucius sneered, "Of course, we can'tnoveldrama

just go and meet him without

making any preparations. We'll each bring our elite subordinates and deploy a our spaceships. By then, our army will be arrayed outside Divine Realm in space. If Nathan harbors ill intentions toward us, our army will immediately launch an attack on Divine Realm. I bet that'll scare Nathan from doing anything reckless!
