The Return of the God of War [The Protector] Chapter 2618

Chapter 2618 Trust Me Just This Once “It is likely that the Lab of Gods' plan is to use that machine to invade every single country in the world. It will be too late if we work on our defenses after they have already built their machines. “And it gets worse! The Lab of Gods will reveal themselves after they introduce their weapon to their world. They have grown to be so powerful that their strength is beyond imagination. It will be a disaster,” replied Levi nervously. Craig grinned and replied, “Aren't you overreacting a little, Crown King? Our country also has machines that are over a hundred meters tall. “In fact, it's been a while since our research team successfully developed combat machinery that is over a hundred meters tall. Garrison Industry and the Wilcox family both created gigantic robots. The tallest among them was about one hundred and fifty meters tall. “These machines are undeniably powerful, but they had their shortcomings as well. The destruction they wreak is terrifying, but it's definitely not enough to be classified as a disaster. Hence, there's no way we'd get the entire country to join forces and build this wall.” The other council member, Nicholas Ramon, chimed in, “It should also be noted that according to various sources, the Lab of Gods has been annihilated. The threat they pose no longer exists. Crown King, I think everything you heard is just a conspiracy theory. “I know that you're no longer practicing martial arts. Perhaps that is why you're buying into conspiracy theories?” The rest of the council members chuckled a little. “The Lab of Gods couldn't have been destroyed that easily. Also, their machine is definitely more powerful than what you just described. There is no way to fight it, and we should treat this issue as a disaster,” replied Levi exasperatedly. Will you please just freaking think? It's obvious that the Lab of Gods won't fade out of existence that easily. In fact, its headquarters is right under your feet. “Okay, calm down, everyone. I still have some questions to ask,” said Craig as he turned to Levi. “My second question is this. How do you know that the Lab of Gods survived? And how did you learn about the so-called destructive machine? Do you have any substantial proof to back your words up?” Everyone else turned their attention over. Levi was still worried about sharing too much information, so he replied, “I saw the members of the Lab of Gods with my own eyes and heard them discussing their plans. My spies looked up the matter as well. Our prediction is that the disaster will take place in three months.” The Lab of Gods' base was built under the Dragonites' base, so it was reasonable to suspect that the Lab of Gods had snuck some spies into the Dragonites' base. It was also possible that some members of the Dragonites were under the Lab of Gods' control. Hence, Levi could only share bits and pieces of the information, and that was only if the council members were the only ones present. “So, in short, you have nothing to prove your words. The part about the disaster, in essence, is just something you heard from an unreliable source and something you theorized.” Craig's logic was sound and reasonable. “He's right. If that is all you have to offer, Crown King, then we will not believe in your words. We certainly won't do something as drastic as what you had just suggested.” “I'm sure you understand what it means to initiate a project of that magnitude. We can't do something so ridiculous just because you have a theory and think that a disaster will happen.” Everyone nodded in agreement. “Trust me this once! When have I ever been wrong about anything? My past record shows that everything I said is accurate, doesn't it?” urged Levi. Everyone turned to one another. Levi had rescued Erudia time and again from various disasters. He had never made any mistakes before. Unfortunately, the issue at hand was simply too huge. He's asking the entire country to join forces! All of Erudia would have to put a pause to their plan and work on a single project just because Levi had a theory. The risks were too huge. On top of that, the country would face too many issues once that project was initiated. It would likely turn the entire country upside down and kill its economy. Who would want to risk something like that? To make matters worse, it was ridiculous because they only had Levi's words to go on. Levi hadn't done much in the past three years to inspire much faith, so he didn't seem reliable at that moment. He had changed drastically since he lost his powers. Even his wife and friends wouldn't believe his words...
