Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You Novel

---- Chapter 3124 When Andrew's gaze shifted toward her, Iridessa's entire body suddenly tensed. As a master-level covert artist, disguising her expressions, appearance, and even her breathing rhythm were all basic skills. Iridessa could transform her entire appearance into that of another person at any moment. In other words, her disguise was perfect Yet even so, Iridessa was shocked to the core when Andrew seemed to detect her.

Just moments ago, she had merely lifted her head slightly to take one extra look at him, and unexpectedly, that had made him aware of her presence, causing him to focus his attention on her. 'His martial prowess has reached an unfathomable level!' Iridessa thought gravely. Andrew stood up and said to Vance, "Alright then, I'll take my leave. Anyway, I've delivered my message. In the near future, I'll mobilize my forces and attack Throne City. This huge prize is right there in front of us, and | imagine plenty of people want a piece of it.

"You, me, the Cathedral, the vampires, the werewolves... We all want to occupy Throne City and become the King of the ---- Wastelands. So it comes down to who strikes first and seizes the advantage." Vance sneered. "Andrew, | assume you're an idiot. Yes, we all want Throne City. After all, it's the most fortified stronghold in the Wastelands. With enough troops and defenses, controlling Throne City essentially means controlling half the Outlands. But like | said, if you want to be the first to take a bite, will the other factions agree?

Will they stand by and watch you succeed?" He scoffed and added, "Whoever moves first will undoubtedly attract thunderous, devastating strikes from all the other sides." Andrew's expression darkened as he snorted coldly. "Even so, | can't wait any longer. You should know how much effort I've put in, how many near-death experiences I've endured, all for this day to come, to send the Ludendorff family straight to hell." With that, Andrew beckoned Petra, and the two left Aurora City.

Outside the city, Ramon's forces were camped not far away, still locked in a stalemate with Aurora City Andrew's smile was enigmatic as he and Petra quickly disappeared into the Wastelands. "Are we really going to be the first ones to attack Throne City?" Petra asked. It was clear he had reservations. ---- Andrew walked ahead and smiled. "Why not? | already said it. Whoever strikes first gains the advantage." Petra shook his head and said, "That only works when there are no powerful enemies surrounding you. But Vance is right... Too many people want Throne City.

Whoever moves first, the others definitely won't stand for it and will surely interfere, maybe even attack us directly. | don't believe you haven't thought of that." Andrew stopped and turned to look at Petra with an ambiguous smile. "So, do you think I've thought of it or not?" Seeing the smile on Andrew's face, Petra grinned. "You've definitely thought of it. Even a blockhead like me can figure that much out, let alone you. So what did you mean just now when you told Vance you couldn't wait any longer and were about to attack Throne City immediately?" Andrew sneered. "Simple!

It's just a smokescreen! Vance is very rational, and what he said is absolutely right. Whoever moves first will inevitably be doomed. The other factions, especially the most powerful one, the Cathedral, won't allow any side to lay claim to Throne City. After all, the Cathedral has been the main force pushing to exterminate the Ludendorff family, and they've suffered the heaviest casualties. "Think about it... After they've sacrificed so much, if someone else swoops in at the last moment and takes the prize, would ---- the Cathedral ever accept that?"
