Chapter 65 The Lord's Arrival at Cleveque City

Max was scared. He was rather scared at this moment. He knew Josh meant it since he not only left his territory for Cleveque City with his sword but also brought tens of thousands of soldiers with him! The sight of those armed helicopters hovering in mid-air outside the window made Max feel dizzy.

"Josh ... Josh Piper, how dare you, how dare you do so? You've brought all the forces for guarding the Central Region to Cleveque City? You, you, you ..." Sweat kept dripping down Max's face.

Josh remained extremely icy and said slowly, "I have nothing to fear. I've brought the Central Region's Military Headquarters to join the military exercises of Cleveque City's Military Headquarters. So what? Do you have a problem with it? Max, don't forget Cleveque City's Military Headquarters were once part of the Central Region's Military Headquarters! Besides, I reserve the right to station my army in Cleveque City. This is what Mr. Addison promised me before!"

Max nodded, but he still couldn't help but ask in disbelief, "The soldiers from the Central Region's Military Headquarters are indeed allowed to train in Cleveque City. But Josh, you're not here for training, are you? Don't make up such a stupid excuse. Do you expect me to believe that you're here only for training after covering almost 1500 kilometers? Or do you expect me to believe that your field military forces need to train in navy and land military forces' territory? Do you think I'm so stupid?"

Josh said in a deep voice, "Whatever you think is up to you. I'm just making you less embarrassed. It'll be okay with me if you insist on making it explicit that I did it on purpose."

Hearing his words, the muscle on Max's face twisted in anger.

Then he breathed deeply to force himself to calm down since he had no choice. After all, given the momentum on the top level of God of War Josh released just now, he knew he wasn't powerful

enough to be Josh's rival. Josh was on the verge of rising to an upper level while Max was weaker than him although he was also on the top level of God of War. So Max was likely to be defeated by Josh if they did start a fight.

But as the most powerful figure in Cleveque City, he couldn't stand being humiliated like this in his territory. Then he stared at Josh, asking, "What, what if I insist on going out today?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Max's momentum kept rising frantically. He was boiling with anger and gathering power, ready to wage a war on Josh.

Josh was silent for a while, but subsequently, he lifted his sword in his hands and directed it at Max's head with gathered momentum.

Time went by. Until five minutes later, Josh and Max, the two Gods of War in the Dragon Kingdom, still kept silent, just staring at each other as their momentum was targeted at each other. Neither of them was going to yield. As for the soldiers from the two Military Headquarters outside the door, they were also confronting each other seriously at the moment.

Finally, Max broke the silence and snarled at Josh angrily, "Josh! Do you know you're playing with fire? You're crazy! What the hell are you thinking about now? You meant it when you attempted to kill me just now? Don't you know there will be a war between the Central Region and Cleveque City once you kill me? Are you insane? I'll report it to Chief Scott! Wait and see!"

In the end, Max didn't choose to start a war on Josh because once the war was started, it would cause a loss of strength to the Dragon Kingdom no matter who was the loser. So Max would rather give up at the cost of being humiliated.

But just as Max was about to call Rendon who was far away guarding Gotham City, his phone suddenly rang. He took out it and saw it was Jason's number. His eyes flashing with surprise, he hurriedly answered the phone. "Jason, where are you? You ..."

Before he could finish speaking, Jason's cry for help came from the phone. "Mr. White, help, help! I'm being hunted in the suburbs by some powerful forces who have killed half of my bodyguards including more than one hundred powerhouses of five-star level. Mr. White, please come to my rescue."

Hearing that, Max was shocked. As expected, those mysterious people seemed to begin to make their move toward Jason. But somehow, he still couldn't help but be shocked by the news although he had expected it. Max knew more or less that those people working for Jason were very powerful since Jason was rich enough to recruit hundreds of retired powerhouses from different countries' armies. Among those powerhouses, many were powerful veterans of five-star level who had rich experiences of war.

Even Max wasn't powerful enough to deal with more than one hundred powerhouses of five-star level who had rich experiences. Although he wouldn't be killed by them, he could only try all kinds of tactics to avoid confronting them. This was also part of the reasons why he had never sorted Jason out over the past few years. He was just worried that Jason would rise in revolt once cornered. At that time, those powerhouses working for him would cause a terrible turmoil that Cleveque City couldn't handle.

So at the moment, Max was greatly shocked. He looked up and gave a deep look at Josh who was holding the sword and directing it at his head before snapping at Jason on the phone once again, "Jason, tell me the truth. Who the hell have you offended? What stupid things have you done? Why was Morgan Group almost ruined overnight and why are you being hunted now? Come on. Just tell me who you have offended."

On the phone came the sound of the strong wind blowing and Jason's panting heavily, which obviously indicated that Jason was fleeing frantically. Upon hearing Max's question, he hurriedly replied, "No, I haven't. Mr. White, I've never offended anyone. It's not time to talk about this. Those

people who are hunting me are much too powerful. I'm on the way to your place. So please hasten to have your people come to my rescue. Hurry up."

On the other end of the phone, Jason was so anxious and was fleeing desperately to where Max was. But when he finished speaking, he got no reply. A while later, Jason rushed Max to give him a reply. "Mr. White, please say something and hasten to have your people come to my rescue."

"Mr. White, stop kidding me! I'm not joking and I'm indeed being hunted, on the verge of death. It's for real. What about making a deal? You have your people come to my rescue now and I'll donate billions of dollars to Cleveque City's Military Headquarters in return. What do you think of this idea? What about 2.8 billion? Please hurry up and come to my rescue. My people almost can't hold on." On the other end of the phone, Jason was almost lost in despair.

Inside the building of Cleveque City's Military Headquarters, Max gave a deep look at Josh who was still directing the sword at him and said to Jason in a deep voice on the phone, "Don't come to me. Josh Piper, God of War in the Central Region has blocked my exit, so I can't come to your rescue. So you'd better pray for yourself." When Max finished speaking, he hung up the phone before Jason could respond. After that, he directly threw his phone in front of Josh hard!

"Josh, I hope you know what you're doing! I'll call Chief Scott right now!" Max snarled at Josh furiously and was almost driven crazy. After all, Morgan Group ranked first in Cleveque City and it represented the glory of Cleveque City and even the Dragon Kingdom. He thought the whole world must be crazy!

Then Max ignored Josh and walked away to pick up a landline phone from the desk before dialing an encrypted number of Gotham City's Military Headquarters. "This is Max White, God of War from Cleveque City. Hurry up and get me connected to Chief Scott. I have an urgent problem to report. Hurry up!"

Soon Rendon's voice came from the phone. "Max, this is Rendon Scott. Don't panic. I've learned of what happened to Morgan Group. I also learn that the Central Region's God of War, Josh Piper has led his army to Cleveque City."

Max was immediately stunned by what he said and subconsciously asked, "Chief Scott, have you learned of everything? Then why does Josh ..."

Rendon interrupted Max before he finished speaking, "Don't ask about it. It's a long and complicated story, so you'd better pretend to know nothing about it. After all, Morgan Group has nothing to do with Military Headquarters, doesn't it? All you need to do is manage your army well and stay where you are for orders! Or you can have joint military exercises with Josh to train soldiers if you're bored!"

After saying so, he hung up the phone, leaving Max completely stunned on the spot. As for Josh, he seemed to have expected the case and remained calm.

Max was dumbfounded and stared at Josh in a daze, saying, "You ... you'd expected Chief Scott to say so, right? Tell me the answer!"

Josh nodded. "You're right. Or do you think I'm really crazy? Come on. Don't act on impulse. Jason deserves such a lesson and it has nothing to do with you. So you just need to stay here and I'll keep you company in the following days."

Max had mixed feelings about Josh's words. He angrily grabbed a chair next to him and smashed it onto the ground hard with a bang which was followed by the sound of many things shattering to vent his depression. He was almost driven crazy. As the God of War guarding Cleveque City, he knew nothing about a series of big events in this city!

After venting his anger, Max stared at Josh, asking, "Josh Piper! Don't hide it from me! Tell me what happened! Who is so powerful as to hunt Jason? I've gotten the news that Charles has also been

blocked inside City Hall. Tens of superiors are pressuring him not to interfere in Morgan Group's business. Besides, the Waldorf family, the Bass family, and other top families of Cleveque City are also blocked. As for me, I'm left to be dealt with you, the Central Region's God of War! Tell me who the one behind these moves is, or I'll rush out to mess up your plans!"

When he finished speaking, he breathed deeply again and stared at Josh. "Josh, don't push me! I mean it. Don't push me too far!"

Suddenly, Max's momentum burst. At the moment, he almost couldn't suppress his depression since he couldn't stand being ignored like this as if he couldn't even have the right to know about what was going on in this city.

But soon Max widened his eyes in shock when Josh, who had been blocking his way, suddenly withdrew his sword and moved aside to let him pass.

"If you insist on going out, then go ahead. Since you don't appreciate my goodness, it's up to you, but ... I hope you won't regret this decision," Josh sneered.

Josh's sudden movement made Max suspicious for a moment. His desperate resolve to go out even at the cost of waging a war on Josh instantly weakened.

He looked at Josh in a daze, asking, "You ... what do you mean? Why ... why will I regret it? Don't play such a game of bluff. Anyway, I'm a God of War of Dragon Kingdom. I don't believe those powerhouses are more powerful than me!"

Josh sneered and walked to the sofa to make way for Max. He said as he walked, "Yes, you're right. They aren't as powerful as you. After all, you're a God of War of Dragon Kingdom. But I have to tell you each of them is more powerful than me. This time, ten powerhouses have arrived. So just go ahead since you're powerful enough to confront ten of them. Just go ahead. You'll be good."

Hearing that, Josh, who was about to step forward, was suddenly stunned on the spot, overwhelmed by fear. He broke out in a cold sweat, trembling frantically. He knew he couldn't even be a rival to Josh, let alone ten powerhouses on the top level of God of War who were even more powerful than Josh. He also knew that if he went out now, he would have no chance of surviving.

Soon, an idea occurred to Max and he immediately looked back to stare at Josh with a pale face. He suddenly realized that no force could be able to give orders to ten powerhouses on the top level of God of War who were even more powerful than Josh other than Heaven Domain which just entered the Dragon Kingdom a few days ago.

"They ... they're from Heaven Domain? One more thing, Josh, since you stayed in Heaven Domain before returning to the Dragon Kingdom, you must know some information, right? Tell me if they're from Heaven Domain." At this time, Max even felt a chill down his spine. Given his position, he knew that incident that happened in Southpool City half a month ago and nearly caused turmoil in the Dragon Kingdom. On that day, Lorenzo Addison, the head of Dragon Kingdom's Military Headquarters, had a conversation with the Lord of Heaven Domain and even demonstrate his intention of letting the lord take over Dragon Kingdom's Military Headquarters.

Josh gave a meaningful look at Max and said slowly, "Of course."

"Then ... the Lord of Heaven Domain will also come to Cleveque City?" Max's face turned even paler.

Josh nodded and grunted, without any further conversation on this topic. Seeing that, Max fell to the ground with a bang, his whole body covered in a cold sweat.

At 4 p.m., in the western suburbs of Cleveque City, Jason, who was in a mess, was fleeing desperately in a valley where the stream was flowing, along with a dozen powerhouses of five-star level.

But soon, they didn't dare to move since several powerhouses who wore masks and had aggressive momentum blocked their way. At the same time, powerhouses emerged from all directions to surround and corner Jason.

On the top of the slope of the side of the valley, Warrior No.1 sneered and looked down at Jason in a mess, saying, "Why not keep running? Aren't you very good at it? Go on ... run ..." Warrior No.1 wore a contemptuous smile on his face, as a way of showing his contempt for Jason and those bodyguards around him.

Given his lord's character, he knew his lord must want to kill Jason himself. That was why he didn't kill Jason. Otherwise, Jason would have been killed. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

At the same time when Warrior No.1 and the others surrounded Jason, 1500 kilometers away, Iwan, who was at Pasoland City's airport, was walking into a private plane's cabin door after having said his farewells to Jayna and the others.

After the door was closed, the plane took off and flew in the direction of Cleveque City at top speed.
