n“Squeak?”

nLightning looked at Enoch with a puzzled face, as if it was filled with doubt toward Enoch’s words.

nWeren’t all those disgusting zombies already killed? Why did its master say that they were in danger now?

nLightning was very puzzled and even found this order a little strange.

nIt didn’t understand why Enoch would say that.

n“More enemies will be coming in a while. You guys should be prepared. Do not let these enemies hurt the Pea Shooters,” Enoch warned Lightning with a grave expression.

nThe Pea Shooters had worked very hard for Enoch, to the point they had fallen in a weakened state.

nNaturally, Enoch would protect the Pea Shooters, which had lost their fighting ability.

nThat was why Enoch was so serious in exhorting Lightning.

nLightning could detect Enoch’s seriousness and understand the gravity of the matter, so it immediately nodded solemnly, indicating that it would act according to Enoch’s orders.

n“Mm, you must protect the Pea Shooters carefully, understand?”

nEnoch was aware there was a small conflict between the Pea Shooters and Lightning and its mischief of Berserk Rats, so he had a solemn expression on his face as he exhorted Lightning once more. He wanted Lightning to know how serious he was right now.

n“Squeak!”

nBecause of the effect of Telepathy, Lightning was very clear about Enoch’s meaning, so it promised Enoch without any hesitation.

nThere was indeed some competition between the Berserk Rats and the Pea Shooters. This had become more evident when the Pea Shooters’ were infuriated because Enoch asked the Berserk Rats’ to assist them. Not to mention they had used all their strength to defeat the Flame Launchers.

nThe Pea Shooters and the Berserk Rats did not acknowledge each other.

nHowever, under Enoch’s control, there was no conflict between them. It could only be said that they were competing for Enoch’s favor.

n“I trust you!” Enoch noticed Lightning’s seriousness and immediately smiled.

nIt was best for Lightning to have this kind of awareness as it would also reduce his troubles.

nAlthough Enoch wanted a positive competitive relationship between the Berserk Rats and the Pea Shooters, it didn’t mean he could accept that they hated each other.

nA good competitive relationship could improve the efficiency of both sides, but a teammate full of hatred could do a lot of stupid things.

nEnoch wanted a good competitive relationship, not two teammates who hated each other.

n“Squeak, squeak.”

nFaced with Enoch’s trust, Lightning was also happy. It immediately circled around Enoch, showing how happy it was.

n“Yes, yes, I know Lightning is the most sensible.” Enoch could also feel Lightning’s happiness at this moment, so he praised Lightning.

nRewards were something that must be given. There should be a corresponding reward for any action. Only by doing so could his subordinates have the motivation to move forward. This was a vital matter.

nAnd for Lightning’s case, Enoch’s praise was the best reward.

nAfter receiving Enoch’s praise, Lightning was so excited and happy.

n“Pea Shooters, you all have a good rest.” Enoch naturally did not ignore the Pea Shooters lying on the side. He immediately smiled and reached out his hand, gently stroking the Pea Shooters’ heads.

nThe Pea Shooters showed signs of happiness as well. Two large leaves that represented the arms were gently swaying up and down in the air, looking very happy.

nEnoch was delighted as he took in the Pea Shooters’ excited looks.

nEnoch reached out and continued to stroke the Pea Shooters’ heads, then looked at Lightning with a smile. “The next battle will be perilous, so you must be careful.”

n“Squeak!” Lightning nodded heavily as if he was giving Enoch a promise.

n“Very good, you’d better do well.” Enoch stroked Lightning’s head happily and praised Lightning.

nThis elated Lightning.

nMeanwhile, Enoch started making plans. While he was contemplating something, Alice came to his mind.

n“Alice’s exploration rate should be around 80%. I wonder if they have reached out to the Salvation Alliance and asked about related matters.”

nEnoch was a little more worried about Alice, not because he had developed any romantic feelings for her. In truth, he wanted Alice to be one of his allies.

nCurrently, Enoch knew that Alice possessed a unique ability. It seemed to be an excellent planning ability that could unearth certain secrets.

nEnoch valued such abilities, and he also felt that Alice could make good use of these abilities to do something beneficial to himself.

nThis was the key reason that Enoch cared about Alice so much.

nAlice was very useful to Enoch, so he wanted her to be his ally.

nEver since the Salvation Alliance’s emergence, Enoch had been pondering over something. Should he establish an organization that belonged to him?

nThis organization didn’t need to be too big, but its members had to be elites!

nOnly in this way could Enoch ensure that nothing would go wrong with his next plan.

nHe could get all the information he wanted and ask for reinforcement in future conflicts with the Salvation Alliance so that he wouldn’t be in danger.

nThese were all significant factors that he had to take seriously.

nAmong the Divine Tree Masters that Enoch had come into contact with, the only one who met his criteria was Alice.

nShe was smart enough, and her abilities were quite suitable for him.

nThat was why he valued Alice so much. He was even thinking whether Alice was safe or not.

nAfter all, Enoch didn’t want to find out that the ally he thought highly of was dead when he went to invite Alice.

nThinking of this, Enoch decided to send Alice a question mark. He wanted to test Alice and see what she would do.

nUnfortunately, before Enoch could do anything, an unhappy voice sounded.

nThe third wave begins!

n“Why does the third wave seem to have been brought forward!?” Enoch frowned.

nThe third wave had obviously been brought forward. Fifteen minutes had yet to pass!

nWas there a problem with the system? Or… had something big happened in the Netherworld!?
