Shock! The Spell Is In English! Chapter 293 - Organization Retreat

Chapter 293: Organization Retreat

Due to the chaotic times, the military was the strongest.

The Guardians of the Southwest were almost all platinum-level experts. At the same time, they also held military power.

The Deputy Guardians could only obediently handle normal matters.

It was difficult to resist the authority of the Guardians.

Of course, just finding these spies was definitely not the end.

There was still a portion of the Black Feather Organization’s people hiding within Blue Star City.

However, as long as they found a breakthrough, these problems wouldn’t be too big.

Even if there was a peak Platinum-tier expert, the Rainbow-Colored Glazed Psychedelic b.u.t.terfly could hypnotize them.

There was no need to mention the other small fries.

With the active cooperation of Scott and Rodney, Gary led the main Beast Master force of Blue Star City, as well as the members of the 14th emergency team, to seal off the centipede train station and start a frenzied purge of the Black Feather Organization’s spies hidden in Blue Star City.

It took five days for the entire Blue Star City to be cleaned up.

There might still be a few who slipped through the net, but none of that was important.

After cleaning up, the alarm that had sounded in Blue Star City was finally lifted.

The civilians walked out of the fortifications one after another. Looking at the bright sun s.h.i.+ning brightly outside, they actually felt like they had been reborn.

In the past five days, the Black Feathers’ underground research room had been emptied with Lucy’s intelligence and the old professor’s cooperation.

All the valuable experimental equipment, equipment, and experimental data reports had been transported onto the worm train.

The centipede train had arrived at Blue Star City two days ago, but it had been stopped by Lugh.

That’s right.

Their emergency team had the right to stop the centipede train.

Anyway, the centipede train was not running on the real track, so it was impossible for it to b.u.mp into someone just because of some mistakes.

Moreover, it was normal for the centipede train to be late.

Nearly 400 captives from the Black Feather Organization, all wearing handcuffs and shackles, were arranged to board one carriage after another.

“I bought a ticket to come up. This is my seat,” a pa.s.senger shouted.

A member of the Emergency Response Team said in a low voice, “Sorry, your carriage has been temporarily commandeered. We have already asked the conductor to arrange a new carriage for you.”

The pa.s.senger insisted, “This is my right. I’ve bought the tickets.”

“What’s going on?”

Lucy noticed some movement in front of her and stepped into the carriage.

“Adjutant Lucy, he’s not willing to leave.”

Lucy waved her hand and said, “Tow him away. Don’t waste time.”

She couldn’t be bothered to reason with anyone.

The two Beast Masters of the Emergency Response Team carried the pa.s.senger to another carriage.

The pa.s.senger wanted to struggle, but was knocked unconscious by a punch.

Such a stubborn person was very rare.

It was a miracle that he was still alive.

Lucy ordered, “If he still acts recklessly after waking up, escort him to the emergency team and lock him up for a month.”

“Yes, Adjutant Lucy.”

The captives were all arranged. Five Gold-tier Beast Masters were arranged to look after each carriage.

Following that, all kinds of precious equipment were arranged into the freight boxes of the train.

Even the conductor sent out most of the train crew to help Lucy arrange the loading of the goods.

Outside Blue Star City, in the vast wilderness, Scott looked at the mountains in the distance.

Lugh stood behind her, looking at Scott’s confession in his hand and asking softly, “Are you really going to do this? Maybe you’ll have a chance to atone for your sins.”

“I’ve betrayed Vice-Captain Barnard’s trust. I don’t have the face to meet him.” Scott didn’t turn back and continued, “Back then, I was defeated by Bill. It was Vice-Captain Barnard who recommended me to be the Guardian of Blue Star City.”

“Yes!”

“I’ve let Vice-Captain Barnard down, and I’ve let down my daughter. I’ve let down the people who died in Blue Star City.”

“I think that living is the most important thing.”

“We’re different.” Scott choked.

Lugh took a deep breath and said, “I respect your opinion.”

“Thank you, Captain Lugh.”

One Platinum-level pet after another was summoned by Scott.

Five Platinum-level pet beasts surrounded Scott.

The Azure Eagle stood on the ground and rubbed its head against his face.

“All of you can leave.” Scott stood where he was. “This is my final order.”

The pet beasts all knew of Scott’s decision and left him one by one.

When the last Azure Eagle disappeared into the sky, Scott took out his energy gun.

“Captain Lugh, please apologize to Vice-Captain Barnard on my behalf. I have let him down.”

After saying that, he inserted the energy gun into his mouth.

The gunshot rang out. Lugh saw the Azure Eagle fly back.

Lugh put away Scott’s body, jumped on the Stormhawk, and flew directly to the centipede train.

The matter of Blue Star City was considered over.

He was personally responsible for escorting the captives of the Black Feather Organization.

As for Gary and the 40 members of the 14th Team, they would temporarily stay in Blue Star City to stabilize the situation and wait for the military to appoint the next Guardian.

He jumped onto the worm train and greeted the conductor.

The centipede train started to run.

Lugh was the last pa.s.senger.

“Where’s Scott?” Lucy asked softly.

Lugh said lightly, “He committed suicide because of guilt. I’ve already kept his corpse.”

In this world, human lives were so worthless.

They died in battle.

They died from hunger.

They died from exhaustion.

They died from being killed by Fierce Beasts.

They couldn’t bear to commit suicide…

There were too many of them.

He didn’t agree with Scott’s choice, but he didn’t oppose it either.

He could only give him a certain amount of respect, seeing that he was once a soldier.

Lugh was already used to seeing life and death.

As for the problem of suicide because of guilt, he didn’t intend to hide anything for Scott. He would report it truthfully.

This was Scott’s responsibility.

“Yes.”

Lugh looked out of the window. The Azure Eagle appeared again.

It followed the centipede train closely, but did not dare to approach.

“What’s with the Azure Eagle?”

“It’s Scott’s pet. Before he left, he let them go.”

“Oh!”

Lucy nodded and left.

Soon, Lucy went through the window and attacked Scott’s Azure Eagle.

As the centipede train moved, the three Platinum-level pet beasts disappeared from Lugh’s sight.

Half an hour later, Lucy entered the carriage and brought a gla.s.s of iced drink for Lugh.

“What for?”

Lucy said calmly, “I wanted to get a Platinum-level beast core.”

“Did you get it?”

“It ran away.”

“Yes!”

Lugh smiled and said, “It’s alright. There will be more opportunities in the future.”

There were some things that everyone knew in their hearts.

There was no need to point it out.

If Lucy did not make a move, the one who would make a move might be the conductor.

Once the conductor made a move, there was a high probability that the Azure Eagle would not be able to run away.

The conductors on the centipede trains were usually much stronger than the Guardians of the various cities.

After all, the Guardians only needed to be responsible for the defense of the cities.

As for the conductor, he brought countless goods and pa.s.sengers as he traveled through the various cities.

Without powerful strength, he was not qualified to be the conductor.

Lugh took out Scott’s confession and read it carefully.

The content was very long. It could be seen that Scott was very serious when he wrote the confession.

In the beginning, when his daughter was kidnapped, he did have the idea of asking the Southwest Military for help.

However, he underestimated the power of the Black Feather Organization in Blue Star City. The people he sent were killed on the way.

Other than giving him the body of the messenger, the Black Feather Organization also gave him the arm of a son and daughter.

He only had one daughter.

She was also his only family member.

Scott was really scared at that time.

After cooperating with the Black Feather Organization to capture a batch of people, Scott also felt guilty.

But it was this guilt, as well as the worry about his daughter, that made him gradually sink.

Rather than saying that this was a confession, it was more like Scott’s inner monologue.

The more he looked at it, the more agitated he became.

He couldn’t help but put himself in Scott’s shoes, thinking of his family.

The more he thought about it, the more agitated he became.

Lugh had almost no impression of his father, or his grandparents.

His father and grandmother were in a Fierce Beast tide.

As for his grandfather, it was said that he died suddenly, in his forties.

However, this was also normal.

The average lifespan of the commoners in this world was not high to begin with.

In just a few short years, just Lugh had personally seen two cities that had been attacked by Fierce Beasts.

Lugh had seen the statistics of the Southwest Military Department. Two hundred years ago, the number of cities under the jurisdiction of the Southwest Military Department was 667.

One hundred years ago, the number of cities under the jurisdiction of the Southwest Military Department had decreased to 316.
