Chapter 171: 97. Accidentally Hit the Mark_3

“Jarvis harbored resentment toward the Imperial Army, so he accepted the Death Herald Guild’s invitation. He and the guild’s wizards met Kasha halfway. Jarvis asked the guild members to kill Kasha to take his revenge. The guild members then killed Kasha and staged a false crime scene.”

“In this way, it completely explains Kasha’s cause of death, who staged the false crime scene, and why Jarvis showed no signs of contamination. Because the one who took action that night was not the ordinary person that is Jarvis, but rather the Death Herald Guild wizard who came to pick him up.”

After hearing this, Lieutenant Cavado’s eyes trembled, and he pondered for a few seconds before nodding heavily:

“Yes, Chief Officer. Your speculation is more convincing and more in line with the actual investigation situation… But why would the Death Herald Guild members help Jarvis?”

“You know why, Cavado, just think about it. You have captured so many Death

Herald Guild wizard apprentices, but how many of them can write Undead Runes with a 100% success rate? Noland Lee’s talent in the path of a wizard is far superior to that of a wizard apprentice.”

Cavado revealed a look of sudden realization:

“Yes, Chief Officer, yes. After your reminder, I realized how talented this fellow Jarvis is. If he joins the Death Herald Guild, he will definitely become a headache for us.

“So what do we do next, Chief Officer? Should we go to the eastern border to carefully search for Jarvis’s traces and those of the Death Herald Guild wizards?”

“No.” Morster shook his head:

“The Death Herald Guild members won’t take Jarvis eastward. Since the moment the Korabo Legion fell, the entire border has been on the highest alert. Even I might not be able to cross the border and return to the depths of the Empire.”

Morster raised a finger:

“There is only one way for Jarvis to follow the Death Herald Guild members back to the heart of the Empire, and that is to cross the Blade Mountain Range, reach the Golden Federation’s ‘Fission Wilderness’, and then return to the Empire from the wilderness’s illegal pass. We can’t control the Golden Federation’s illegal pass, but we can block the narrow pass in the Blade

Mountain Range.”

“Sealing the pass… But Chief Officer, what if Jarvis and the Death Herald Guild members do not cross the mountain from our Empire-controlled pass, but instead take the Undead Cult pass? Wouldn’t we still be unable to catch them?” Cavado asked.

“That won’t happen. I am very clear about the character of those people in the Death Herald Guild.” Morster waved his hand confidently:

“The Death Herald Guild members crave the power of death while alive and look down on the Undead Cult members from the bottom of their hearts. They have finally managed to get a gifted apprentice from the Empire and they will certainly cultivate him well, turning him into a genuine Death Clan wizard. They would never send him into Undead territory to become an Undead. So, there is a very good chance that the Death Herald Guild members will take Jarvis across the Empire’s checkpoint, crossing the Blade Mountain Range, and reach the Golden Federation.

“As for who is the Death Herald Guild wizard that helped Jarvis escape the fortress, I have some speculations. It is highly likely that it is the leader of the Wand Destruction Team who betrayed the Empire with the Bone-mending Wand. It is this traitor who cooperated with the Undead Cult, and initiated the summoning ceremony of the Undead Army within the Legion.”

Cavado agreed wholeheartedly, sincerely saying:

“Chief Officer, your reasoning is far more reliable than mine. I will personally go guard the pass with others and prevent Jarvis and the Death Herald Guild members from crossing the mountain range.”

“Fine, Cavado, I officially authorize you to go to the pass to carry out this task. Also, there is one more thing.”

Morster continued:

“No matter if the Death Herald Guild member beside Jarvis is the traitor of the Wand Destruction Team or not, they still possess considerable strength. In order to ensure the success of the operation, I will allow you to deploy a group

of Biochemical Soldiers with Reproductive Armor.”

“!!” Lieutenant Cavado’s eyes widened, and his tone suddenly became excited:

“Reproductive Armor, Biochemical Soldiers… Chief Officer, has our research plan succeeded?! Has the Emperor approved the use of Reproductive Armor and Biochemical Soldiers? This is great! We must prove to the Imperial Army that the Empire doesn’t need to understand Undead Runes to defeat the Undead Cult! The power of Biochemical Mutation is enough to defeat everything! ”

Morster raised his hand to calm his excited subordinate:

“Cavado, calm down. The research plan has not been completely successful yet, and many research parameters still need to be adjusted. Your mission to search for Jarvis this time will be a good opportunity to test the combat effectiveness of Reproductive Armor and Biochemical Soldiers against the Death Herald Guild members. After you return, remember to write a detailed report and submit it to Division Intelligence Unit Three.

“If you discover the traitor during the search for Jarvis, I permit you to use any means necessary to detain him. This order takes priority over the search for Jarvis because the traitor possesses the Bone-mending Wand.”

“Yes, Chief Officer!”

Cavado loudly responded, straightening his back, his heart surging.

He took the transfer order from Morster, saluted, and turned to leave.

Only Morster was left in the office room.

A sigh echoed through the office room.

“Dealing with a group of people who have no idea what a wizard is, is really difficult.

“In a country where magic is not acknowledged, commanding a bunch of fools who get excited at the mention of wizards is even more difficult.”

“Father, oh father. Since you despise wizards and magic, and you also refuse to accept Alchemy, then why did you call me back to take over this mess? Did you just want to take advantage of the extraordinary knowledge in my mind to help you manage Division Intelligence Unit Two?

“The power of magic is majestic, father, as are wizards. Even if I help you destroy the Death Herald Guild, new magical organizations will appear in the Empire. Each one stronger and more radical than the last… “Are you asking me to confront these monstrous entities…”

Looking troubled, Morster lit a cigarette.

He held the cigarette between his fingers.

The burning end did not touch the mask or lips.

He took a slow breath.

The fire at the end of the cigarette brightened and the smoke burned quickly.

“Hoo-

With an exhalation, no white smoke could be seen in the office room.

“Let’s maintain the status quo for now. The Death Herald Guild is still manageable… The real fear is that the new magical institutions will be beyond my reach..”
