Chapter 1934
Lambert suddenly looked up. "Alvis?"
"Yes!" his subordinate said with a stern face, "The moment Alvis arrived, he took over Citadel City. His
firepower is intense. I heard he''s already taken down several of Triceratops'' armed forces!"
Lambert realized in a sh why Raiden had left in such a hurry—it was because of Alvis!
Frowning slightly, he was puzzled. "Have there been any recent conflicts between Triceratops and
Alvis?"
His subordinate shook his head, "None!"
"I see. Keep an eye on both Raiden and Alvis. I want to be informed immediately of any
developments," Lambert instructed.
"Yes, Mr. Brennan," the subordinate replied respectfully before leaving.
Evelyn, who had been listening in, was confused. "Who''s Alvis?"
Lambert gave Evelyn a quick rundown of the current situation in Tripe.
"Now, there are three main yers in Tripe. There''s Gab, holding down the fort in the northwest at
Silver Valley, Triceratops in control of Citadel City, and then there''s Alvis. The president of that
Federation is just a figurehead. The real power behind the throne is Alvis. In the past few years, under
the pressure from Gab, Triceratops had been on the decline. However, with Raiden''s rise to power,
Triceratops had regained strength and even started to take over Gab''s territory. They had shed
several times. Alvis usually stayed out of their affairs because the ederation is rich with oil and has top-
notch equipment—no one dared to provoke him. But Triceratops'' new energy research was set to
power could only be the Brennan family. That''s why Raiden had approached me.”
Could it be that Alvis knew about their potential coboration and that''s why he was attacking so
aggressively?
If that was the case, Raiden could be in big trouble!
Lambert sneered to himself. He no longer cared about a partnership with Raiden; he preferred to see
the situation descend into chaos!
Evelyn, still not fully grasping theplexity, remarked, "That sounds prettyplicated!"
"That''s why this isn''t the ce for you. Your boyfriend did me a favor, so I''ll return the favor. Once
you''ve convinced him, I''ll get you both out of here," Lambert said.
Evelyn had always thought Lambert was just a rich yboying to Zion for fun. It was only when
she saw his guards storming into Zion that she realized this seemingly carefree Mr. Brennan might be
much more than he appeared.
Raiden spent the night trying to contact Alvis for a talk, but there was no response from Alvis'' end.
Instead, Triceratops gave Raiden an earful over the phone, demanding to know what he had done to
anger the Federation so much!

He demanded that his man Huff take charge of Zion''s defense; Raiden was no longer allowed to act
unterally.
This was also a punishment for Raiden''s ipetence.
Raiden said nothing, temporarily handing over Zion''s defense to Huff.
Huff entered, took his secret orders, and left without a word.
He had been sent to Zion just ten days ago, and because he was personally appointed by Triceratops,
Raiden had immediately given him the position of chief steward.
It sounded impressive, but it was really just a nominal role, managing some of Zion''s trivial matters
without any real power.
Huff had noints and dutifully carried out his responsibilities, never onceining to
Triceratops.
Winston came in, set down a cup of tea for Raiden, and asked, "Do you think the boss is just looking
for an excuse to divide your power by bringing in Huff?"
Raiden''s face, hidden beneath a mask, was filled with a dark expression as he replied in a calm tone,
"Let them do as they please! I''ll do whatever he says. Zion is as secure as a fortress. No one inside
can cause any trouble!"
And that included the heir of the Brennan family!
Winston nodded. "I''ve looked into Re''s situation. A pharmacist named Lynn tampered with the
potency of the drug. That''s why Re woke up."
