The Deadly Assassin Robin Novel

The Deadly Assassin Robin Chapter 975 Jealousy and Self Interest Gavins cold command silenced the tense atmosphere in an instant .

0 % 84 % Finished Peacock Kingdoms Wild Wolf Special Forces commander , Melvin , froze in shock .

His gaze instinctively shifted to the four Dragon Soul Special Forces warriors advancing toward him with an imposing and fearsome presence .

These four warriors were elite fighters , each exuding aommanding aura that could chill the blood .

Since the start of the competition , Dragon Soul Special Forces had continually surprised Melvin .

He hadnt expected them to display such tenacity and boldness , a stark contrast to the rumors of their supposed decline .

Melvin had competed in the previous International Military Skills Competition alongside Surman .

Back then , the Dragon Soul team had been courteous and composed , even in the face of disputes .

Any conflicts were typically handled by their external liaison officers through negotiation .

This head on confrontation was entirely unprecedented .

He hadnt had the chance to fully assess this years Dragon Soul team , but their actions made one thing clear they were not to be underestimated .

Even during the last competition , where his team had narrowly defeated Dragon Soul , he had recognized their formidable potential .

As Gavin issued a direct order to prepare for combat , the Wild Wolf Special Forces members behind Melvin immediately got into defensive stances , ready to retaliate .

But Melvin hesitated .

More than hesitation it was fear creeping in .

He hadnt intended for things to escalate this far .

His earlier posturing was merely a bluff , an attempt to intimidate Dragon Soul .

It had backfired spectacularly General Brooks , let me remind you if you dare to engage , the competition committee might disqualify you ! Gavin snorted dismissively .

Your team trespassed into our area to stir up trouble , and now you dare to accuse us of breaking the rules ? What kind of logic is that ? With a sharp glare , he added , Melvin , Im warning you one last time clear the path now , or my team will not hold back ! Melvin glanced at the Dragon Soul warriors , who were closing in with unyielding determination .

Then , his peripheral vision caught the watching eyes of the other nearby teams .

He was cornered , unsure of his next move .

Backing down would be humiliating , yet Gavin wasnt wrong this mess was Wild Wolf Special Forces fault .

They had invaded Area Three , attempted to steal supplies , and suffered the consequences when the pythons attacked .

The situation was utterly embarrassing for Melvin .

The four elite Dragon Soul warriors continued their steady advance , their disciplined strides carrying an air of inevitable conflict .

If Melvin didnt act quickly , a clash was inevitable .

Freya exchanged a quick look with Gavin , signaling for Catherine and the others to hold their positions for the time being .

Zachs face lit up with relief .

Dragon Souls gesture was a clear show of respect , and He was eager to play the peacemaker .

Adopting a diplomatic tone , Zach approached Freya and Gavin with a conciliatory smile .

General Brooks , Colonel Wright , were all old friends Here .

Could you do me a favor ? I have a proposal to resolve this matter .

How about you hear me out first ? ach said with a forced smile .

Go on , Freya replied coldly , her tone making Zach flinch before continuing .

Think about it .

The other teams are still advancing .

If you waste time on this trivial matter and miss the competition , wouldnt that be a huge loss ? General Brooks , my suggestion is this : you take a step back , and Dragon Soul Special Forces can also make some concessions .

Lets face it your vanguard has already seized Rattlesnake Special Forces energy supplies .

Dragon Soul now has more resources than anyone else , which seems a bit excessive .

In the spirit of fair play , which has always been Dragon Souls tradition , why not distribute some of the resources to the other teams ? That way , everyone makes a small compromise , and we can call it a day .

Colonel Wright , what do you think ? After all … Shut up ! Freyas sharp rebuke cut him off mid sentence .

What ? Zachs jaw dropped in shock .

Colonel Wright , lets be reasonable here .

Your words are complete nonsense ! Get out of my way ! x 4 Still attempting to maintain a conciliatory demeanor , Zach grinned awkwardly .

Colonel Wright , Im just stating the facts .

Cant you do me a small favor … Freya let out a disdainful laugh .

Who do you think you are ? Get lost ! If you dont move , Dragon Souls team will deal with you too ! Were moving forward ! Freya barked .

Zachs face darkened in humiliation .

He had never expected Freya to be so unyielding .

Exchanging a subtle glance with Melvin , the two commanders silently reached an agreement .

Zachs expression turned icy .

General Brooks , Colonel Wright , dont you think youre going too far ? Before he could finish , Freya shoved him aside with a single hand .

Now get out of the way ! And if I refuse ? Zach , visibly irritated , squared his stance , ready to fight .

At that moment , a man with a neatly trimmed mustache stepped forward .

He was none other than Theodore Wade , the commander of Sakurania Special Forces .

Hahaha , Theodore chuckled loudly .

Colonel Wright , Ceneral Brooks , theres no need to get so worked up .

General Kaplan was only trying to mediate.

He meant well , though his words might have been poorly chosen .

How about we all take a step back and maintain peace ? Brendon stepped forward , his fists clenched .

Theres nothing more to discuss! he growled , clearly ready to swing .

Brendon , stand down ! Let him speak , Freya ordered , her voice icy .

Theodore smirked .

Colonel Wright , if you offend this many teams , do you think youll be able to handle the backlash ? You might even face collective complaints , and the committee could very well disqualify you from the competition altogether .

Dont forget , our nation is one of the founding members of this event .

We have the authority to report and intervene in any rule violations .

Gavin and Freya hesitated .

Theodores warning wasnt baseless .

If things escalated , the situation could spiral out of control , leaving them with no choice but to escalate it to Robin .

Meanwhile , more commanders joined forces with Melvin , Zach , and Theodore , presenting their arguments .

Their words were tinged with jealousy and self interest .

The truth was simple : Dragon Soul Special Forces had secured Rattlesnake Special Forces supplies , sparking envy among the other teams .

Though the resources were barely enough to make a difference when divided among so many teams , they saw it as a critical advantage in Dragon Souls hands .

If Dragon Soul kept the supplies , they would gain a significant edge , enabling them to breeze through Area Three and leave the others far behind .

Now , facing a growing crowd of teams blocking their way , Gavin and Freya found themselves momentarily at an impasse .
