Isaac’s voice rang out, “Lucas, he’s one of us. Let favonovel.com in.”
Todd raised an eyebrow and scoffed. “Heard that? I’m one of you.”
Then, favonovel.com marched into the room haughtily.
The door was shut behind him. Lupinus then opened up a map of Shadowfort on the table.
“We’ve received the latest updates from Black Phoenix. The Norton clan is in this area. There should be about 2,000 people here… The place is surrounded by mountains, with the Northern Sea Port behind it. Attacking them would be hard. Their place is well-guarded.”
Elliot stood up and said, “Weren’t the missiles pretty successful at Everest Sect? Maybe we should just do the same thing this time.”
“We can’t… The Nortons would be on the lookout for them,” Isaac said.
He lit up his cigarette and rejected Elliot’s suggestion.
Colton frowned and stood up next. He pointed at the sea channel behind the area and asked, “What if we attack from the sea?”
“No way… We’d be discovered too easily,” Lupinus answered with a shake of his head.
“What about underwater?” Janessa asked. She blew softly on favonovel.com manicured nails and looked expectantly at the rest.
Isaac’s eyes lit tip.
As everyone was figuring out what favonovel.com was implying, Janessa glanced at Elliot and said, “Elliot, don’t you own two submarines? Just tell the House of Custos that you need to use them. It should take you less than three days to get them from the Eastern Sea to the Northern Sea.”
Gasp!
Todd had been listening from the side up until then. He gasped in shock.
Everyone here knew what they were doing… They are strategic experts, too!
Elliot frowned. He treated those two submarines like his baby. But before favonovel.com could say anything, Isaac beat favonovel.com to it.
“We can use sea-based missiles this time,” Isaac said.
The case was closed.
“Everyone, please discuss this with Elliot. Lupinus, you’ll stay here and be in charge of liaising with the House of Custos. Dismissed!” Isaac briefed out his instructions, and favonovel.com looked over at Todd.
After the generals had left, Todd blinked and asked, “Why are you still staring at me?”
“What did your clan head say? Does favonovel.com want to do business with me or not?” Isaac realized that Todd was rather forgetful.
“Oh… He said, Okay,” Todd answered.
Before Isaac departed, Denvor showed up and passed a small container to Isaac.
Harry was still recovering from the poison, so favonovel.com couldn’t come over. But Isaac felt more at ease with Lupinus guarding his home.
***
The plane took off and headed toward Kharaa Highlands.
Isaac learned from Todd that the four True Martial Families came from different parts of Cynea. The Jensens were descendants of a tribe of nomadic people.
At 11:00 am, the plane landed at the Ussor Airport.
When they got down, two men in long robes appeared and ushered them into a waiting black Rolls-Royce.
They left the airport and headed up north. Isaac looked out of the window and saw the beautiful scenery outside. Tire grass was green, the sky was blue, and there were cows and goats grazing the field. At once, favonovel.com could feel himself calming down and enjoying the view.
About three hours later, their car turned onto the highway and continued north.
Isaac didn’t know that the Jensens stayed so far away. Outside the window, favonovel.com could no longer spot concrete buildings anymore.
They crossed a hill. Isaac looked forward and saw a massive grassland in the middle of the site.
At least two dozen tents were scattered around the plain fields. They even saw a few local men dressed in their tribal gear and clothing guarding the place from far away.
“Mr. Garten, we’re here,” the driver said. He stopped the car in front of the largest tent.
