The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 168 Walking Into a Trap

“But Dragon’s Hill is such a remote place. What could have made them go through all this trouble?” Svlvia asked in confusion.

“Perhaps it’s a mine of some kind or maybe a treasure from an ancient tomb,” Caspian suggested.

It would not be unusual for a large mountain like Dragon’s Hill to be home to an ancient tomb.

If unearthed, it was bound to hold a wealth of priceless treasures.

Caspian marveled over Joey’s analytical skills. Previously, when she saw the underground passage, she had a feeling there was something suspicious about it.

“But we kept an eye on those people the entire night, and we didn’t notice anything unusual. They left empty–handed,” Sylvia said.

“They probably haven’t pinned down the exact location yet. Continue to keep an eye on them, but don’t take any action. Let’s see what they’re up to,” Caspian instructed.

Caspian felt the Tigrans had another motive for coming to Southlake City. While Glorious Group did indeed draw all the attention, the actions of these special forces soldiers were truly suspicious.

“Got it. If they’re really here to dig up Diatoran’s treasures, what should we do? They have over 500 elite fighters! They won’t be as easy to deal with as Leonardo’s men!” Sylvia reminded concernedly.

“Don’t worry. South Aridlands isn’t too far from here. If needed, we can tell John to send the troops over! If they have the nerve to steal our treasures, we’ll make sure they never step out of Diatoran alive!” Caspian said.

“Understood, Caspian. Glorious Group seems to be nothing more than a distraction. What they’re truly here for is to steal the treasures from Dragon’s Hill!”

Sylvia finally understood what was happening.

Glorious Group had been maintaining a high profile, but it was merely to divert attention.

When it was almost time to get off work, Willow called Miranda into her office.

“You asked to see me, Ms. Stewart?” Miranda queried.

“Vince Archer of Archer Group called me out of the blue today. He wants to work with us, and he seems quite impatient about it,” Willow said.
