Because the adult stone giants in Walibel valley were not around, there was no need to worry about being heard. Thus, Gerald’s voice was louder, and almost all the nearby centaurs heard it.

They surrounded him with excited expressions and looked at Gerald.

They had been waiting for Gerald to give the order to attack for the past few days. After all, Gerald was the acknowledged new leader out of all of them.

However, Gerald had been unwilling to give the order to attack.

The centaurs had been waiting impatiently for a long time.

Now that Gerald had finally agreed to attack, everyone was naturally very excited.

When all the centaurs had gathered, Gerald did not explain anything. He just pointed at the entrance of the canyon in front and said, “My fellow countrymen, now is the best chance to drive the stone giants away from the Walibel valley.. Charge with me!”

With that, he took the lead and charged forward.

The other centaurs followed closely behind, one after another. For a moment, the entire land trembled slightly.

When Timus looked at this scene, he was completely stunned. He sat on the spot with his mouth agape.

He did not understand why Gerald suddenly changed his mind.

Gerald, who was initially hesitant, actually gave the order to attack so decisively. He had only chatted with his teacher for a while.

As he thought about this, Timus could not help but look at Mike.

“Are you wondering why Gerald directly launched an attack after listening to my words?”

Timus widened his eyes and looked at Mike in surprise, then nodded.

Mike, on the other hand, still laid on the ground in a comfortable position. He looked at Timus from the corner of his eyes and slowly said, “The reason is very simple. I just gave Gerald a way out.”

“Way Out? What do you mean?” Timus scratched the back of his head in confusion and asked.

Mike directly sat up and looked at the entrance of Walibel Valley. “His situation is like being on an isolated high platform. He can’t go up or down.

“And the one who sent him to the high platform was the Centaur tribe, which was the main faction behind him.

“All his compatriots were following him. He needed to be responsible for his compatriots behind him, so he had to give the order.

“However, it takes courage to do these things.”

At this point, Mike paused and looked at Timus, “It takes courage to kill, courage to do evil, and courage to plunder. These all require courage for them.

“Gerald can’t make up his mind, so I need to scold him and let him find an attack that he has no choice but to launch.

“This is the step that I helped him build. With this step, Gerald only needed to follow the step down.”

Hearing this, Timus nodded as if he suddenly understood something.

But after a moment, he could not help but ask, “Wait, since Gerald can’t make up his mind, why don’t we just let the other centaurs give the order.

“I think they’ve been wanting to attack for a long time.”

Hearing this, Mike looked at Timus as if he was looking at an idiot.

Timus was a little embarrassed by Mike’s look. He shrunk his neck and asked awkwardly, “Is there something wrong with what I said?”

Mike shook his head helplessly and sighed, “Of course not.

“Do you think that the other war-minded centaurs are more determined than Gerald?”

When Timus heard this, doubt appeared in his eyes.
