God of Tricksters - Chapter 1907

“We need to find a solution fast. The enemies are trying to divert our attention.” Agata bit her lips. She panicked because the situation was beyond her expectation.

She was certain that there were no enemies inside the base yet. The only people who would do something like this were the spies.

At the same time, it also meant that they had begun their action, which might ruin the entire battle.

Felix closed his eyes for a moment, remembering what Theo had said.

“No matter how rough the situation is, don’t show it. The team will be lost if the captain is confused.”

Felix gradually opened his eyes as if he knew what to do.

“I see…” Felix’s voice captured everyone’s attention. He might be the leader, but Agata was the one who did everything. In other words, he was only a figurehead.

But the fact that he stood up at this time meant he had something important to say.

Felix looked at them with a serious expression and stated, “It seems that the enemies are using the spies to distract us. For now, we should be glad that the enemies use the spies, not in the next battle.

“After all, once we have confirmed them, the spies wouldn’t be as effective.”

Felix appeared to be calm as if he had calculated everything and treated it as a small problem. Felix turned to Agata, “What do you think about using the police to handle the situation? Or do you need the army to do it?”

“The police won’t be enough. At the very least, we have to show an army so that everyone thinks everything is under control. Unfortunately, we don’t have that.” Agata shook her head helplessly. “Also, we have been stretching our people, so if we recall some of them from the battlefield, it will create a gap.

“I believe this is what the enemies want. Once we’re diverted, they will attack those gaps and break through.”

Felix nodded in understanding and remembered one important detail. “But I heard there were a few influences that didn’t join…”

“We couldn’t do anything against them for the time being… We have to solve this battle first before—”

Before Agata finished her explanation, Nella suddenly interjected. “Ah, if you are talking about those influences…”

Everyone suddenly turned to Nella, thinking she had a plan. It seemed Nella had done something to make them obey them.

Nella smirked. “Actually, Uncle Ray has given me the authority to use the information gathered by the Griffith Family to blackmail them.

“We are supposed to use them to bolster our people at the last moment. Since they’re not with us at that time, it’ll be a good surprise if they suddenly appear on the battlefield.”

Agata narrowed her eyes, never expecting that Nella would be using something like this. Blackmail? They certainly wouldn’t like it but didn’t have any right to refuse. At the very least, they had to participate in this battle.

It felt like a new door had opened. Although those influences weren’t that much since most of the organizations in the base had joined them, they still had enough people to control the situation.

“There are two possibilities. I can send those people to the battlefield so that we can bring back some soldiers. Or we can send them to suppress the panic…”

Agata looked down, falling into deep thought. If she chose the former, those organizations would bear their fangs at them after this battle. If she chose the latter, she didn’t know whether they would do it wholeheartedly.

There were a few downsides to each option, so she could only focus on the benefits.

Ultimately, she decided, “Nella. Do you think it’s possible to send them to the battlefield right now?”

Nella thought for a moment. “I can inform Uncle about it. Since they’re a kind of reserve army, I think it’s possible to make them arrive within twenty minutes.”

“Twenty minutes, huh. It’s too slow. I guess we have to rely on them to quell the unrest.” Agata sighed. She knew that those organizations hadn’t deployed their people yet. Even if they had, it would be a bit farther away from the battlefield.

Instead of creating a gap by moving the troops around, it was better to send the nearest people to the nearest problem.

“Alright. Tell them to quell the rest with or without a threat. We have to suppress them as soon as possible.” Agata turned to Millie. “I want you to inform the police to work with them. Also, tell the other HQ to get ready since the fight is going to start.”

Nella and Millie nodded. They understood their roles and made sure that there wouldn’t be a gap because of them.

Meanwhile, Felix had returned to his seat. Agata seemed to have realized it as well and gave a thumbs up to him.

Felix was actually acting the whole time. He also didn’t know much about the situation and plan, but because Agata was smart enough to come up with a plan with some small hints, Felix only had to throw all kinds of cards they had previously.

After all, Theo had assured him that he had prepared everything they needed for the war.

So, it was his job to remind them.

Still, Felix was curious about one thing. He couldn’t help but whisper to Agata, “Do you need me to help quell the chaos?”

“If you, the leader, have to move right after the battle has just begun, it’s the same as telling them that we don’t have any preparation. Even a small plan can disrupt us, so it will only make the situation worse.”

“I see.” Felix nodded. Even after contributing a lot to calming the situation, he still didn’t know what he should do most of the time.

So, he had to rely on Agata this time and waited until the time when he had to take action arrived.

Before that, Felix maintained silence as he watched how the battle unfolded.
