Chapter 774: "A Turtle Without A Shell"
Chapter 774: “A Turtle Without A Shell”
Not to mention the Aretha Family's little intelligent network said that the Walter Family sided with the Sloan Family and would surely have a hand in the Inheritance Stone business too.
That family would only become stronger and stronger, especially after they monopolized one of the biggest energy crystal mines in the country.
The Aretha Family didn't want to be left behind, and so…they joined the alliance to rob the island.
While the enemies were silently brewing some strategies, Jake, the one with the broadest and sharpest mind, slowly found out that the enemies were acting weird.
It has been three hours since the enemy attacked them, but in the last few hours, the enemy's attack wasn't as intense as before.
It was as if they didn't think of breaking the barrier and only wanted to keep the big bosses busy by aiming for the big bosses and their temporary troops.
When Jake noticed this strange point, he immediately spoke to Ainsley through the Airpods.
"Let the big bosses take a rest and ignore the enemy. I think the enemy is trying to wear them out."
!
Ainsley didn't notice this at all, and her face instantly paled.
"Really? If that's the case, we really should let them stop fighting and killing enemies. The barrier is enough to protect us for the time being!"
While the others fought, Ainsley was busy taming some sea monsters and land monsters.
But since they were all without owners, Ainsley had to place them into her dimensional bracelet and let Ava take care of these temporary troops.
Added with Vallan, the little obedient 'nanny', the monsters didn't dare to wreak havoc inside the dimensional bracelet.
She was so busy taming and taming monsters that she didn't notice the enemy was trying to fool them!
Ainsley immediately contacted all the big bosses and shouted.
"Uncles, aunties, we have killed enough enemies. It's time to take a break! The enemy is trying to wear off your ability and energy. They're up to no good!"
When the bosses heard this, they were stunned for a second before grimly commanding their temporary troops to go back to their unfinished base.
Evan was solemn as he spoke to Ainsley through the Airpods.
"If what you said is true, it means that they're planning to do something big…are they trying to break the barrier once and for all?"
But he had witnessed how the barrier never broke even after three hours of continuous attack.
Jake's energy crystals were really so abundant to the point of charging the barrier-making machine for three hours straight!
Sensing Evan's doubt and suspicion, Ainsley also gulped nervously.
"I don't know…but maybe they're really capable of breaking the barrier once and for all. Any ideas how they might do this?"
The bosses were silent as they went back to the base, and of them could think of an answer.
In the end, Evan sighed and spoke solemnly.
"I can't think of anything. Let's just go back first, meet up, and discuss. The barrier is strong enough to hold on even without us."
And they had killed around 500-1000 people in the past three hours. That's more than enough to cut off the enemies' human resources.
While the bosses went back, the enemies noticed their movements and reported it to the marshal.
When the marshal heard the report, he snickered while stroking his short beard.
"Interesting. Someone must be clever enough to notice our plan. Still, what can they do? Once the barrier is gone, they will be like a naked turtle without a shell."
The marshal was confident in the anti-barrier machine that they would use. It was a machine that not even the mafia council could get, but the government could.
If not for the machine being so hard to make and could only be used for two hours before it would break and couldn't be used anymore, they would have been able to suppress the mafia society easily.
But now, the government took out this machine. It showed how important the inheritance stone mine was!
After all, it could attract non-human races to do business with them, and they finally didn't need the Billios Family to be their middleman.
They had heard that the Billios Family was now close to the Sloan Family, a budding mafia family that would undoubtedly create troubles for them.
If they kept relying on the Billios Family to do business with the non-human races, their country would be left behind compared to other human countries.
The Godlif country was already small compared to other countries, and they were also bothered by the mafia.
It was really shameful!
Right now, Ainsley and the others didn't know that their enemy would use the anti-barrier machine to demolish their barrier once and for all.
They didn't even know that after that machine was activated, their barrier-making machine would stop working.
Later on, they could only rely on the barrier ability users if they wanted to create barriers.
But how could the barrier ability users protect the whole island? They might only be able to protect the mine and the base.
Not knowing anything, the big bosses finally returned to the base and immediately held a meeting.
The group sat around a simple wooden table and Jake was the first one to speak.
"I think we have to make a plan in case the enemy really manages to break the barrier once and for all. If we don't prepare for that, when that happens, we will lose for sure."
"Hum, agree. Any ideas how to handle that, though?"
The Meidian Family's representative, one of their elders, couldn't help but ask Jake.
When that time comes, they would be besieged from all sides and many would die.
