Chapter 2762 Camp South Master And His Scheme
"Highly reliable. He will be making his move in a few days."
Camp South Master was in disbelief. "But why? Doesn't he know that establishing a territory here costs a lot? I thought he cared about his underlings. Why would he sacrifice them just to establish a Camp?”
Maulwurf said, "Master, you underestimate the allure of a Camp Master's position. Sacrificing some lives is nothing in front of that."
Camp South Master nodded. "You make a good point. I can't let that happen. I will not let him become a Camp Master. I don't know him that well just yet, so he might still have some tricks up his sleeve. If we impulsively attack him while he's on his way to establishing a Camp, he might suddenly pull out another trump card."
The possibility was low but not zero. This matter was vitally important to the survival of the Camps. Hence, Camp South Master came to a decision after a moment of deliberation.
He said, "Good work, Maulwurf. That's indeed important information. You may leave now. I shall set up some countermeasures."
Maulwurf was disappointed. That's all? Some compliments? Not even something tangible? It seems my decision to betray him was a wise one.
After that, Maulwurf excused himself.
Once he was gone, Camp South Master summoned Sunshade.
Sunshade said, "What are your orders, Master?"
Camp South Master said, "Zeke's Centuria is moving to the Beast District. He wants to establish a new Camp."
What? Delighted, Sunshade said, "That's good news! Establishing a new Camp is going to bring his numbers down considerably as the beasts will attack them incessantly."
Camp South Master sighed. "So? The casualties are only made up of regular members. Zeke and his lieutenants will be just fine, and they're the real threat. Once they gain purchase in the district, they'll pose a threat to us."
Sunshade inhaled sharply. "Good point, Master. Then what should we do?"
A moment of musing later, Camp South Master said, "We'll have to put our faith in the beasts. See if they can stop Zeke."
In a careful tone, Sunshade said, "Master, are you suggesting that we toss some Spirit Stones along their path?"
Camp South Master nodded. "The more the better. It would be best if they could mow down a thousand beasts before they even reach the Centuria's district. Then they'll have to face the primordial beast. The beast will destroy them for us."
"I see, Master. Right away."
Sunshade quickly took some Spirit Stones. He considered their situation and withdrew three hundred stones for now.
This should be enough to lure about six hundred beasts. Since Zeke's already killed more than a hundred at this point, this'll get his kill count up to seven hundred. If he wants to scare the beasts at the Beast District into submission, he'll have to kill about five hundred more. That'll be enough to rouse the primordial beast.
Sunshade spread the stones along the path Zeke and his army would pass.
When Zeke's men were told of their moving, they were confused and unsupportive of the decision.
"Mr. Williams, we're doing good here. Why are we moving all of a sudden?"
"Yeah. This is our home. Leaving it is not a good idea."
"Must we leave, Mr. Williams? Do you have another way?"
