Levi Garrison: The Return of the God of War [The Protector] Chapter 2028

“What is it?” Everyone turned to Bruce and stared at him. Bruce had a serious look on his face. “Right now all we can do is to wait for them to attack again!” “We don't have any leads currently and we would only come to a dead-end if we continued searching. Whoever behind all this must be very powerful to leave no trail behind.” “Of course! If they can steal the sunstones from right under our nose without alerting us, they must be very capable,” the others agreed. Bruce continued, “Unless we search every corner in the world, which we don't have the resources to do so, it is impossible to recover the sunstones!” “All we can do right now is to wait for them to show themselves and pick up the trails that they leave behind.” Pausing to clear his throat, Bruce then carried on, “I have arranged for Ryker to mine the next batch of sunstones. We will heavily guard the transportation a day later and set up traps along the way. Let's see if they still have the audacity to steal from us!” Everyone agreed with Bruce's plan. “Excellent plan! Let's see if they will steal from us again. When they expose themselves, we will destroy them!” “Alright, everyone gets ready for tomorrow! Let's see who this bastard is!” Frowning, Bruce changed the topic. “However, there is a possibility that they only wanted to steal the sunstones once. After all, the total energy from the sunstones is enough for a lifetime for most people. In that case, we might not even catch them red-handed!” Everyone fell silent at the thought of the possibility. “We shall know whether they want to stop the sunstones from leaving Erudia or they want to steal the sunstones for themselves tomorrow.” “I hope that it's the first case...” Bruce smirked. After thorough planning, Bruce made sure that he had a stronger escort team and better equipment. He made sure that detectors were set up along the transportation route and utilized technologically-advanced drones. Once a problem was detected, it wouldn't take more than a few minutes for backup forces to arrive. This time, Bruce ordered Ryker to only mine for one day because it was enough to bait the thief. On that day, the entire world had their eyes on the Lab of Gods. Everyone was laughing at them because they couldn't figure out the mysterious force. It was obvious that Bruce wanted to lure the mysterious force out by continuing to mine the sunstones. Levi guessed Bruce's plan as well. Phoenix was fast and accurate as Levi's intel. “Boss, I'm sure Bruce's second transportation is a trap! They must have already set up traps for us!” “I suggest we give up this time. Since they only mined for a day, the amount of sunstones is negligible!” a few others chimed in. Levi glanced at them. “Didn't I swear that I will not let them transport a single sunstone out of Erudia?” “Yes.” Levi's subordinates nodded. “Then we must go ahead with our plan. Even if it's just half a piece of sunstone, I will take it from them!” Everyone was astonished by Levi's determination. “Understood, boss! We'll do as you say!” Soon, a day passed. After loading the sunstones, Ryker transported the goods from the six major mining sites to the port. This time, the escort team was much stronger and there were more ships. Bruce's plan was to separate the sunstones and load them onto different ships. “Honk!” As the transportation team departed, everyone grew increasingly anxious.
