Chapter 37 Pressed for Time

Caspian, Sylvia, and the rest were relieved to see the fighter jets.

The roars of the fighter jets’ engines and the bangs from the missiles hitting their targets thundered

together.

The Apex Legion hidden on both mountainsides were pulverized.

Soon, Diatoran’s elite forces arrived on the battlefield as well.

When they saw the wreckage of the three off-road vehicles and Caspian’s injury, they were able to deduce

how intense the fight had been earlier.

“Lord Caspian, we, the Special Forces, have been ordered to ensure your safety!” The leader of the special

forces unit saluted Caspian.

“The enemy is hidden on both sides of the mountain. Get rid of them at once!” Caspian ordered.

“Yes, sir!” The special forces unit did not delay. They swiftly mounted a forceful attack on both sides.

Howls and cries of agony echoed through the mountains as Tigra’s Apex Legion came under heavy fire.

Tanks and missile launchers appeared as well, and another wave of fierce attacks was leveled at both

mountainsides.

In the end, the army arrived. They swiftly surrounded Caspian and protected him on all sides.

John followed closely behind.

When he saw Caspian’s wounded and bleeding arm, he was terrified and filled with remorse.

“Are you alright, Lord Caspian?” John checked anxiously.

“It’s fine. It’s just a scratch. You don’t need to make such a big deal out of it,” Caspian said indifferently.

“It is my fault that you got injured, Lord Caspian!” John said vexedly.

“You did well. The reinforcements came just in time. How did you know that I would be ambushed?”-

Caspian asked.

“Soon after you left, I received classified intelligence detailing the enemy’s plan to assassinate you. After
