580 An Open Bar
"Target located!
Surround the target now.
Move! Move! Move! Move!!!!"
"_"
'Bam!'
Several skillful men quickly got out of their vehicles and ran towards their target while also taking precautions against any incoming enemy attacked too.
It all happened so fast that before their opponents could say anything else, they had already surrounded William and some of the enemy warriors as well.
William who had previously steeled his heart to receive torture, was pleasantly surprised at the turn of events.
Just looking at the vehicles, he instantly knew who had paid him this surprise visit.
Hahahahhahahha!
Never in a million years, would he have thought that this cousin of his who he had known for a few days..... would suddenly pop out of nowhere in his time of need.
What could he say?
the heavens seemed to favour him greatly.
Indeed, he was truly blessed!
But then again, when he thought about how so many people had visited him in a single night, he couldn't help but wonder If this so-called secret base was even a secret anymore.
Because the way things were turning out, he wouldn't be surprised to see Alec come out of nowhere later on tonight.
Heck!
Maybe even ordinary people knew of its location as well.
Had he been lax over security recently?
He had to admit that he didn't follow things through well enough when he was dealing with the whole Slytherin Cord issue... Since he had been a little bit emotional at the moment.
But that was in his mind, the only time that he had slipped up.
So during that time frame, who could've given out his location to his enemies?
Did someone on his side betray him?"
William was stumped when he thought about the whole thing.
3 different groups of visitors on a single night?
Please!
Coincidences like these were just too suspicious and had to be looked into thoroughly.
.
As for Eli and Connor, they looked at the men before with shock and confusion.
Their faces scrunched up a little when they saw the vehicles.
Dammit!
How did this younger brother of theirs know about today's matter?
And why did it seem like this base was like an open bar that any Tom, Dick or Harry could walk right in?
He now felt a little bit stupid, when he thought of the fact that he and Alec didn't know about William... Seeing how easy it was for others to locate him.
Connor's mind went to work, and he started calculating his profits again.
Ahh!
What if this brother of theirs shamelessly demands to have shares in their spoils of war?
No way!
He wasn't sharing!!!
He had already made plans to keep 6/10 to himself and give the rest to Eli.
But if Landon came into the picture, then wouldn't his share decrease instead?
His greedy mind had already decided to not yield to Landon no matter what.
After all, the dude hadn't even joined them during battle... So why should he even get any damn thing from them?
Eli on the other hand, had entirely different thoughts from Connor.
For him, Landon was to deal with him.
Yes!
He firmly believed that Landon wanted to get rid of him.
One should know that earlier on when he was in Baymard, Landon had specifically thanked him for his gift on his 15th birthday.
Of course when he heard that, he instantly knew what Landon was talking about.
The bastard had thanked him for giving him poison on his 15th birthday.
It was that same poison that killed the original Landon in this world.
But how would Eli have known?
To him... Landon's luck was just too good, since he survived from this sort of poison that didn't even have a cure yet within the Pyno continent.
Who would've known that an expert would come along and cure him?
Thinking about it like that, Eli was sure that the expert was the one who also improved Baymard's medical facilities as well.
This sort of expert was one that he needed in his camp!
.
Anyway, ever since Landon had thanked him... He knew that the bastard would soon plan to make his move on him.
And that was why he had even hyped Alec to take care of Landon when they were still in Baymard.
He had spent his time there making Alec simulated enough to fight the battle for him.
So when they finally travelled their separate ways, he was extremely glad to know that his father would deal with Landon once he went back to the Capital.
And when Alec had sent him a note with a secret message saying that he was going to war, Eli couldn't help but smile broadly.
How could he not be glad?
He was the Crown Prince, so anything that Alec colonized, would eventually be his when the old geezer died.
It was like killing 2 birds with one stone.
Because at the end of the day, Landon would die and he would gain Baymard as his.
Everything was supposed to be going perfectly.
So why was this bastard here now?
Wasn't he supposed to be in Baymard?
If he was here now, then didn't that mean that they had been travelling for months?
I won't they use that same time frame to travel back too?
What if Alec arrived for battle and the bastard wasn't there?
Had the heavens had already hatched an escape plan for this little bastard?
No!
He couldn't let this younger brother of his life, or else the bastard my plan to take revenge on them after he heard about Alec's sudden moves.
Even though they would've already conquered Baymard by the time Landon heard about the news, one shouldn't overlook the matter of revenge... Even if Landon was just 'one' man.
After all, a single grain could tip any scale.
So underlooking this bastard might one day result in their deaths.
That's why Eli had decided to kill Landon today
Yes!
Today, Landon would die!!!
