Chapter 670
Now that war had broken out once more, their people‘s livelihoods must have suffered tremendously.“Henry, what‘s your take on this? Why did the twenty–eight nations attack Sol?” James looked atHenry.
Although Henry‘s injuries had not recovered fully, he was now able to walk. With war breaking out inthe Southern Plains, he followed Jaines here.
Henry thought long and hard about this. After a while, he said, “I think something‘s amiss. They justifiedtheir war goal by pointing to the lives that were lost in the hijacking incident. I think someone must havearranged for it.”
James nodded.
Henry‘s analysis was spot on. “Who do you think it is, then? What‘s their objective?” James questioned.“The one behind the scenes should know that, despite entering into an alliance, the military power ofthe twenty–eight nations combined is no match for Sol. They should understand that once Sol gets itsact together, crushing the twenty–eight nations is but a piece of cake.”
Saying that, he gazed at the generals “Don‘t just stand there. Share your thoughts.”
Hearing this, the generals looked at one another. They remained silent as they believed they were notin the position to comment on the matter, given its severity. Henry continued, “Since it all began withthe hijacking incident, I suggest getting to the bottom of it. Once we understand the chain of events thatled to the incident and the identity of the one behind the scenes, solving the current border crisis shouldbe much easier.”
James looked at Levi and asked, “So, have you got to the bottom of this?”
Levi nodded. “Yes. After receiving orders from the higher–ups, I personally conducted an investigationinto the matter. However, there were no survivors. Not only that, many among the dead were influentialpeople from the enemy‘s nations.”
Saying that, he handed a file to James. “These are the findings of the investigation.” James opened thefile. Then, he frowned. “You didn‘t find out who was behind it?” Levi shook his head. “Not yet.” Jamestook a deep breath and put the file down. Looking at the generals in the conference room, he said in anair of finality, “Sol is not afraid of war. However, that doesn‘t mean we‘ll be manipulated and used aspawns. Find out the whole truth about the hijacking incident as soon as possible. You can start withinvestigating the background of the deceased.”
Levi sald dejectedly, “But, these are people from the enemy nations. This constitutes
transnational law enforcement. Under current circumstances, all nations have canceled theirinternational lines to Sol.”
Hearing this, James was lost in contemplation.
After some time, he stood up and left the conference room.
Then, he pulled his phone out and called May. “James, aren‘t you at the Southern Plains right now? Isthere anything I can help you with?”novelbin
James instructed, “Order the ones who are in charge of protecting Thea to abort their mission andmake their way to the Southern Plains immediately. I have other missions for them.” “Understood.”
May hung up the phone and contacted the other assassins. James returned to the conference roomand continued the meeting. The situation on the battlefield was critical. Last night, the Southern PlainsCity had fallen to the allied forces of the twenty–eight nations. The Black Dragon army suffered huge
casualties and was forced to retreat. After occupying the city, the enemy forces did not pursue themany further. James had decided it would be best to not act rashly at the moment. They would hold downthe fort in Lavender Town. If the allied forces of the twenty–eight nations continued their assault, theywould meet them in battle. At the same time, James had ordered his men to swiftly conduct a thoroughinvestigation into the hijacking incident to find out the identity of the one behind the scenes.
May and the others soon arrived. They reached Lavender Town in just a few hours. In the militaryregion... The assassins stood before James, who was in his Black Dragon robe with a five–star badgeon it. They looked at him in awe and admiration. Although they were assassins, they deeply admiredJames.
May asked, “James, what are your orders?”
James handed them some documents. They opened them. They were photos of the deceased in thehijacking incident. James instructed, “The deceased in the photos belong to the enemy nations. I wantyou to find a way to sneak into the enemy nations and find out who they were in contact with beforethey visited Sol. This is of utmost priority.” May looked at James and asked, “James, are you officiallyrecruiting us into the Black Dragon army?”
James gave a slight smile. “If the mission becomes a resounding success, why not? Get going nowand investigate the matter. However, remember that surviving is the most important thing of all.”
“Understood.”
“We‘ll accomplish the mission.”
