God of Tricksters

"What are you planning to do?" Brad suddenly came to him while furrowing his eyebrows.

They had managed to erect the wall here, so it should be able to stop them for a moment. At the very least, it would give a message that they already knew about their scheme. If they didn't proceed carefully, they would fall into an ambush.

Theo stopped for a moment and looked at Brad coldly. "And do you think you're worthy of knowing about that?"

The tension raised again as Brad and Theo stared at each other. It was clear they had been going at each other this whole time.

In fact, they would be able to do something if not because Brad took Theo's words lightly.

However, they couldn't say anything or blame Brad because they had the same opinion as Brad at first. There was no way they would believe Theo's words when the mission was going smoothly.

But they still needed Brad to survive in this place. If there was another conflict, they were afraid the situation would become even worse.

As if trying to de-escalate the situation, one of them stepped forward and said with a wry smile. "Ehm, I think it's better to put your grudge away. No matter what, we need to survive from this place."

Theo maintained his silence for a moment while glaring at Brad as if he didn't want to forgive him.

Brad gritted his teeth. If he killed Theo here, he would be deemed as the greatest criminal of the Starry Group and the Star Group. Even the military might be moved when he returned to the US.

After all, Theo was their first expert on the Asda's List, who beat Winston not long ago. And his level was below 600, showing his true potential. There was no way they wanted to kill Theo because it would be a huge blow to the younger generation.

At the same time, if he didn't get rid of Theo, the latter would simply tell everything about what he did. As the leader chosen by Maya, he would need to take full responsibility.

If he had followed what Theo said earlier, they wouldn't be in this situation. In fact, they might be able to join hands with the Lowe Organization and the military to handle this matter.

In other words, everything was his fault. The moment he returned to the US, his career would be over. Even though he was a Mythical Rank Expert, no one would take him in again because they were afraid Brad would make the same mistake, resulting in the loss of many lives.

That was why there was one thing that Brad could do to save himself along with the rest of the group. And Theo had told him what it was earlier.

After getting Theo's stare for a moment, Brad gradually lowered his body and fell to his knees. His forehead touched the ground as he said, "Please, help the group."

"!!!" All the people in the tunnel dropped their jaws to the ground when they saw Brad kneeling before him.

Melinda sucked a cold breath as she remembered what Theo said about Brad kneeling.

To save his life, career, and the people he led, Brad could only kneel to Theo despite being far stronger than him.

They finally understood Theo had predicted this situation.

Theo remained silent for a few seconds, raising the tension even more.

Even the people started thinking about releasing Brad from this embarrassment as soon as possible.

'Oi, oi. Are you kidding me?'

'Just help Brad up as soon as possible.'

'He's still a Mythical Rank Expert.'

They were afraid Brad would do something stupid because of his anger. And when they were about to snap, Theo finally opened his mouth.

"I need something to convince the rest of the people before gathering the whole group. After that, we will drill this hill with our power before ambushing the terrorists outside.

"Just like what you did earlier, I'm sure the other Mythical Rank Experts, whether from the Starry Group or the Lowe Organization, won't believe this situation even if you personally explain it to them.

"So, what I mean by creating an opportunity is to kill some people from outside. They will come pretty soon, so we will use this wall to trick them into thinking we know about their plan and have them retreat.

"At that time, we will break through this thin wall and ambush them. We will use their lives to convince those people and rally our force.

"I believe they're going to come sooner or later, so I want all of you to prepare yourself to ambush them.

"Since you want to help now, you need to work harder than anyone else. Also, I need several people to block the entrance as soon as we emerge from this tunnel. This way, the terrorist can't escape and inform their ally outside. It will give us some time to create another exit.

"After coming out of the hill, we will ambush them together with the Lowe Organization. According to my monkey, the military can hold out for one more hour. Hence, we need to move fast and save the army.

"This way, the Starry Group will become the biggest contributor in this operation. And we can put the blame on the military and the Lowe Organization. Not only will we win the war, but we can also gain more prestige for the Starry Group.

"No matter what, I have promised Sir Bernard to take care of the Starry Group. If you understand my plan, I need five people to block the other tunnel." Theo turned to the other Supreme Rank Experts.

When they heard Theo's plan, they were shocked because it turned out Theo never planned to run away even in this difficult situation. Instead, he actually wanted to fish in this troubled water.

Melinda scratched the back of her head while thinking, 'If we're not in this situation, I think I can fight together with this amazing man…'

Meanwhile, ten people suddenly raised their hands and said in unison. "We're going to block the exits."

"Huh…" Those ten people never expected there were so many volunteers, despite knowing it was the most dangerous role.

"Settle it by yourself. You have one minute. Remember, I only want five people," said Theo before turning to Brad. "If you understand, then get up. Five Mythical Rank Experts are better than four."
