Chapter 665
After receiving no response for half an hour, shots were fired. Xylon informed Flynn of Stellarâs order, and the man was in disbelief. âAre
you sure you told Colonel Orwell that there are two majors from two
different territories here?â
Xylonâs impulsive temperament was one thing, but for even Colonel Orwell to be so impulsive, he was beginning to wonder if he was too
calm.
In the Northern Territory, under the starry sky, Philix was draped in a cloak as he stood at the summit of Mount Boundary. He was gazing at the distant snowy mountains. Behind him, Stellar had just relayed the news from Jonford as well as the orders he had issued.
The cold wind howled, piercing and bone-chilling. Philix remained silent for a long time. Stellar asked, âWarden, are you worried about the capital or the Southern and Eastern Territories?â
âNeither,â Philix answered slowly.
âIn that case, are you concerned about the confirmation of that matter, or is it about the young marshal?â
Philix shook his head and sighed. âItâs nothing. Go rest. Also, tell Xylon and the others not to reveal my relationship with Nash.â
After saying that, he walked down the mountain without looking back, leaving Stellar puzzled.
He still could not figure out what was the Wardenâs concerns. Could it be homesickness? Philix got into a Jeep and returned to his room in
the Northern Territory base. He grabbed a mobile phone from a box under the bed and dialed a number.
âSect Leader!â
âSend two Mystique Loyalty Realm experts from Heavenly Doors to Jonford.â
âSect Leader, the Fourth and Fifth Elders are currently in secluded
cultivation in attempts to break through to the mid-Mystique Loyalty
Realm. The Third Elder is in Jonford. Currently, we only have the
Grand Elder and the Second Elderâ¦â
âAlright, have them go to Capiton and find Tristan. They are not allowed to leave their posts without my orders!â
âYes!â
After hanging up the phone, the creases on Philixâs forehead finally eased. The Heavenly Doorsâ influence was something he used to deal with the Klein family, but now, he had to deploy them elsewhere.
When he spoke with the countryâs leader today, he was instructed or how to handle this matter. The leader also mentioned that he might not participate in the next election anymore due to his advancing age.
In Longford, the prime minister was elected every six years. The current prime minister had been re-elected for three consecutive terms and was the same age as Philix, still in his prime.
Why would he suddenly lose interest in politics? The only possibility was that there was a problem in the countryâs capital.
Philix did not have many acquaintances in the capital, fewer more who were trustworthy. Tristan was one of the few people he could
trust.
He did not dare reveal the matter regarding the countryâs capital. He had not even informed his trusted subordinates about it. The news would only disturb military morale the moment it got out.
At the base on Mount Tame, Bobby sat in the guest room with the
two majors, enjoying tea. Suddenly, Peggy rushed into the room, her
expression urgent.
âGrandpa Olsen, my grandfather is looking for you!â
Bobby stood up and followed Peggy to the office to answer the phone.
âBobby, they intercepted a telegram from the Northern Territory just now. Theyâll be taking action shortly,â Otisâ voice came through the phone, sounding serious.
âWill they⦠really dare to take action?â
Bobbyâs brows furrowed. While he could withstand ordinary weapons if they used heavier types, he would not be able to withstand them despite his realm achievement.
After a moment of silence, Otis said again, âRelease him.
Puzzled, Bobby asked, âIs this the bureau headâs decision?â
âHis decision is that weâre responsible for the trouble weâve caused,â Otis replied calmly.
Bobby sighed. âI understand.â
After hanging up the phone, Bobby turned to Peggy and said, âThe
situation has been clarified. The Smiling Grim Reaper had been
impersonated. Release Nash.â
