However, he simply smiled and shook his head. "No. You guys go back and take a rest. That's it for now."
It was important to know when to stop. Liam was already Level 44 now, jumping from 42 to 44 in just a few hours.
Since this was visible for everyone on the leaderboard, he knew that there was probably a huge uproar right about now.
If the stormtroopers guild did not spread the news about the mission before, they would have definitely done it now.
So he did not intend to push his luck and take the risk.
His original plan was to attempt to obtain the inheritance at Level 50 but trying at Level 44 wasn't that bad either.
"Yup, doing that is less risky than doing this again." Liam quietly pondered and walked over to the counter to settle some war contributions.
After that, he decided to log out and check the forums before starting to search for the inheritance quest and attempt it.
However, as soon as he reached the counter and dumped the required amount of gold in front of the grumpy demon, the other party surprised him.
"Sir Platoon leader, you seem to be extremely capable. You have accomplished something impossible! Back to back successful invasions!"
"And you are also the fastest leader to get promoted from squad leader to platoon leader!"
"Do you perhaps aim to challenge our garrison leader and take his position?"
"Hmmm…" Liam stopped in his tracks hearing the demon's snarky comment.
He could tell that the man was simply taunting him. Irrespectively, this matter caught his interest.
"Would you care to elaborate?" Liam turned around and asked the same guy.
"Oh, ke ke ke. Sir platoon leader is not even aware of this? It's alright. I will explain things to you. I have been here a long time." The demon sneered.
"Every platoon leader has the ability to challenge our garrison leader. Ke Ke. Some young bold heroes think that they are capable of ousting our leader and brainlessly challenge him."
"You see the young demons these days are very greedy and impatient and don't know what's what."
"They think that they are all that and challenge our mighty leader, but in the end, their fate is just… ha ha ha."
"Of course, this is only for others. I wouldn't dare to disrespect you, Sir. If it is you, then you should definitely be worthy of challenging our garrison leader. Ke Ke Ke."
Liam smiled, completely ignoring the vicious words of the guy. "And where do I issue this challenge?"
"Ah!" The demon abruptly stood up from his chair and quickly pointed to the tower at the far end of the city. "That is the location of our garrison leader. You can challenge him there."
His body was shaking and he was only barely able to control his glee.
And as soon as Liam left, he immediately burst into laughter.
Another demon standing next to him worriedly asked him. "Beluga, aren't you going to too far? That demon is a platoon leader after all and we are only soldiers here."
Beluga coldly snorted. "So what? I am tired of this bullshit hierarchy. These greenhorns come in yesterday and think that they can rule over me?"
"Do you know how many years I have been working here!"
"Do you know how many wars I have participated in!"
"Hmph! Challenge our garrison leader? Bah ha ha ha! Wait till he comes back with his tail in between his legs!"
"That stupid demon deserves a good lesson!"
"Cough. Cough. Don't you dare tell about this to anyone else! You know that I am doing our leader a service, right?"
"If that greenhorn's arrogance is not taken down a notch, then he might blindly go in for another invasion and incur heavy losses."
"He might cause the death of our brethren. So I am only doing a service for our city. Shut up and sit down.. Don't say anything about this to anyone else and mind your business."
