The Almighty Lord Caspian

Chapter 642 Bomb Attack

Members of Task Force Rose who were stationed inside the hotel panicked when they spotted the

truck.

If Caspian didn't get out of the way, he would be smashed to smithereens. And once the truck crashed

into the hotel, the entire building would cave in!

"Run, Lord Caspian!" Macy screamed.

"We can't let the truck crash into the hotel!" Caspian resolutely declared.

"But we can't stop it!" Macy cried out anxiously.

"Get to safety! I'll deal with this!" Caspian shoved Macy out of the way.

He raised his Diatanium dagger and slashed at the truck. In an instant, everyone could almost see a

circular shockwave slamming against the vehicle.

They all jumped in shock. No one expected Caspian to be this formidable. He wielded his dagger with

such force and dominance.

At the very next second, the front of the truck split into two!

Everyone froze in fear.

Who would've thought that Caspian possessed such invincible might?

Although Macy and the Phoenix Vanguard had witnessed the fight between Caspian and Robert, they

had never seen anything like this.

Truth be told, even Caspian was taken aback. Since he began studying the Eldorian Scroll fragment,

he grew even stronger.

But despite breaking into two, the truck continued to speed toward the hotel.

After a few seconds, the truck started veering to the side.

The spy driving the truck exclaimed in shock as the vehicle shot past Caspian and crashed against the

wall.

Several bombs fell out of it, and everyone trembled in fear.

Covered in blood, the enemy spy crawled out of the truck.

Macy swiftly shot him to death.

"Lord Caspian!"

"Are you okay, Lord Caspian?"

The Phoenix Vanguard ran over to check on Caspian.

"I'm fine! Deal with the bombs right away!" Caspian commanded.

"Yes, sir!" The soldiers swiftly did as told.

"Macy, I want you and your team to eliminate the enemy spies. Check all the surrounding buildings. We

can't have any more accidents!" Caspian said.

"I'm on it!" Macy and the Phoenix Vanguard rushed off.

Soon, they located all of the enemy secret agents hidden near the hotel.

A strict lockdown was enforced within a one-mile radius of the hotel. Everyone needed permission to

travel in and out of the area.

Balthazar was informed of the situation, and he heard about Caspian splitting the front of the truck in

half.

"Caspian is indeed an unparalleled warrior! He single-handedly overcame such a dangerous crisis!"

Balthazar remarked.

"That's right, Your Majesty! Lord Caspian is as mighty as a thousand men combined!" one of the high-

ranking officials said.

"If he hadn't taken action, I'm afraid the truck would've crashed into the hotel and exploded. Thank

goodness he was there!" another one chimed in.

"You all sound like you're bewitched. Is Caspian really that strong? It sounds to me like he planned the

whole thing," Jerry remarked.

"What do you mean by that, Mr. Andrews?" an official asked.

"Southlake City is Caspian's territory. How could a truck get in if he had instructed his subordinates to

set up defense measures? Don't you think there's something fishy about this?" Jerry asked.

"Fishy? In what way?" the official queried puzzledly.

"The hotel is surrounded by Caspian's subordinates, but the enemy spies were able to mount an

assassination attempt, and they even sent a suicide bomber. Can there really be such a coincidence?"

Jerry said.

"Mr. Andrews, are you saying Caspian had his people assassinate His Majesty?" the official exclaimed.

"That seems to be the only possibility. There's no other way to explain this matter," Jerry declared.

Everyone was thunderstruck.

Jerry continued, "His Majesty is staying in this hotel, but the security measures have proven to be

entirely useless! Isn't that suspicious?"

"Impossible! Lord Caspian is loyal to His Majesty. He wouldn't do such a thing!"

"That's right! Lord Caspian has risked his life to save His Majesty many times now!"

"Precisely! If Lord Caspian wanted His Majesty dead, he could've allowed that to happen when His

Majesty was captured back at West Aridlands. He didn't need to rush over to save His Majesty!"

Everyone began sharing their opinions.

"You're all forgetting something. Caspian is now His Majesty's successor. If something happens to His

Majesty, Caspian will be able to become the next king!" Jerry declared.

The officials exchanged looks of disbelief.

It was indeed suspicious that Balthazar had been targeted by an assassination attempt. Logically

speaking, the enemy shouldn't be aware of his whereabouts.

But in reality, the enemy spies not only knew that he was at the hotel, but they even knew which room

he was in.

Based on that, Caspian was indeed a target for suspicion.

There was no way the enemy could've gotten such detailed information about Balthazar's whereabouts.

Thanks to Jerry's claims, everyone grew a little suspicious of Caspian.

After all, he was indeed a powerful man with an army at his command. It was plausible that he had

grown ambitious and wanted to become the king.

"Mr. Andrews is right, but His Majesty had already announced that Caspian would be his successor

before he went to West Aridlands. That happened before His Majesty was abducted by Quinton Hans,"

an official piped up.

"Since Caspian was already the successor then, he didn't need to save His Majesty. As long as His

Majesty was killed, he could rightfully become the next king."

"At the time, Diatoran was besieged by the enemy on all fronts. Caspian probably thought it wasn't the

right time for him to strike. For the sake of the nation's stability, he had to save His Majesty," Jerry said.

"So you think now's the right time for him to strike?" a general asked. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

"The enemy forces have been defeated, and Diatoran is slowly regaining its stability. Caspian probably

thinks he can seize this opportunity to rise to the throne.

"You all saw what happened today. Caspian kept arguing with His Majesty. That makes him even more

suspicious," Jerry declared.

The crowd began to look fearful. They were in Caspian's territory. They were all in grave danger if

Caspian did have his eyes on the throne.

Meanwhile, Balthazar listened to the officials without saying a word. No one knew what he thought.

Just then, Caspian came up to the top floor of the hotel, and he charged toward Balthazar with his

Diatanium dagger in hand.
