”Field Marshal, please relax. Your tense posture is making me uneasy” Wyatt said, urging the Field Marshal to calm down. Henricks posed no threat to them, so there was no need to be so on edge.

Seeing her hesitation, Wyatt glanced at Henricks with disdain and assured her, ”I dared him to test me because I knew he wouldnʼt dare make an enemy of me!

In the current state of the Freedom Fighters, they couldnʼt afford to antagonize Wyatt. Hence, Wyatt was so confident that Henricks would remain obedient to him, even after the Field Marshal released him from her pseudo-celestial space rule domain.

”..” Being openly challenged and taunted by Wyatt, the corner of Henricksʼs eye twitched as he suppressed his rising emotions and continued to force a smile on his face.

He had no choice. Had Henricks known that Wyatt was a catastrophe disguised as a mere low-level card apprentice, he would have been more cautious about his attempt to kidnap Clown Mask or simply abandoned the idea altogether, not wanting to make an enemy of Wyatt.

The Freedom Fighters were not only bankrupt but also trapped in an alien realm. The world leaders, greedy for the D-rank silver beach gate dungeon, and the central military, eager to crush their revolution, had cornered them. Making them prisoners in their main Headquaters, a place where they thought they were safest.

In their perilous situation, aside from their secret deal with the Southern Princess, the VR universe was their last hope for survival. Given that Wyatt was the creator of the VR universe, they dared not. provoke him unless it was absolutely necessary, such as acquiring the future vision that Clown Mask had seen before her Tao Eyes were stolen.

”Wyatt, heʼs like a old coyote. He tricks you by feigning weakness, and once you start trusting your back to him, he wonʼt hesitate to backstab you. We canʼt trust him, the Field Marshal couldnʼt help but interject, warning her young liege not to underestimate Henricks just because he was currently appearing weak.

Someone like Henricks could not be trusted. The Masters were a perfect example of what the Field Marshal was trying to warn Wyatt about. Her words were not just aimed at their current situation but also at Wyattʼs plan to incorporate the Freedom Fighters into his forces.

Not that she doubted the Freedom Fightersʼ strength or undermined them for their identity, but she believed that as long as they were under Henricksʼs leadership, they were not worth recruiting for Wyatt. She hoped that her young liege would heed her warning and abandon the idea of recruiting the Freedom Fighters, led by Henricks, as part of his forces.

Her words clearly conveyed her intentions to both the young liege and Henricks, causing Henricks to frown. While he was still on the fence about the Freedom Fighters joining Wyatt, seeing the Field Marshal actively trying to prevent this possibility, he couldnʼt help but feel disheartened. After all, joining Wyatt, coupled with his promises, was too tempting to ignore.

Hence, he couldnʼt help but passively aggressively comment, ʼPrincess, it pains me to know that you have such a low opinion of me after we watched each otherʼs backs at the Way Beyond for years! The Field Marshal instantly appeared before Henricks, grabbed him by the throat, and stared straight into his eyes with her rage-filled eyes as she threaten, ”That is the only reason you are still

alive after you dared to steal from the Southern royal family, hurt my family, and corrupted my grandniece. Count your lucky that my liege needs you, otherwise...”

Almost choked to death by the Field Marshal, Wyatt, for the first time, read Henricksʼs true emotions through his eyes. They were filled with rage yet tranquil, like a volcano filled to the brim with bubbling lava but appearing harmless like a mountain from the outside.

This was what the Field Marshal was warning him about Henricks. Just as Henricks wouldnʼt mind groveling for his goals, he wouldnʼt forget the humiliation and shame he had suffered. He would bide his time to get even. However, Wyatt was not afraid. He had the Freedom Fighters heading from the palm of his hand.

Apart from the Southern Royal familyʼs forces, the Freedom Fighters were the only organization in the Card world to possess the most VR Slime cards. Since Wyatt was distributing millions of these cards for free to students, the poor, and those in remote corners of the world, most of the VR Slime ended up in the possession of Freedom Fighters members or those related to them.

These cards ultimately accumulated at their Main Headquarters in the hands of the most capable and promising members of the Freedom Fighters. These were the individuals who held a certain authority within the Freedom Fighters. In other words, if the Freedom Fighters were up to something these guys would learn about it first.

As a matter of fact, Henricks himself had a VR Slime card equipped in his grimoire at present. How did Wyatt know Henricksʼs card arrangement in his diamond grimoireʼs card slots? Although Wyatt still didnʼt dare to hack into a diamond grimoire, it wasnʼt difficult for him to track if someone was equipping a VR Slime card in their grimoire using the backdoor he had purposely added to each VR Slime card he had ever created.

This backdoor was what gave Wyatt the confidence that he would be able to control the infamous Henricks, who had managed to trick the Masters, who ruled the Card world for millennia, by living among them and being one of their subordinates. The Masters never saw Henricks coming, but that would not be a problem for Wyatt.

Although the information network Wyatt had created in the Card world using the VR universe and VR Slime cards was still a work in progress, it was more than capable of handling the likes of Henricks and the Freedom Fighters, who relied on the VR universe and VR Slime cards as their last. lifeline. Not to mention, Wyatt planned to provide all members of the Freedom Fighters with a VR Slime if they were to join him, increasing his odds.
