Chapter 632 Arrival

No one spoke out against what Achilles said as everyone there knew how much it cost to train a

Golden Guard. It was not simply that they were rare. Each one of the Golden Guards was carefully

tested at each stage of their progress and was an accumulation of resources and experiences. It was

with numerous deadly trials before they were finally worthy of becoming the twelve Golden Guards of

the Dragon Cavalry.

Countless men of the Dragon Cavalry tried to become the Golden Guards but very few made it.

A large portion of them lost their lives on the battlefields. From the establishment of the Dragon

Cavalry, there had never been any deployment of the Golden Guards for private tasks due to their

immense value.

The loss of the lives of three Golden Guards was enough to demand Jack’s life. Even if Jack was a

potential heir of the Hughes family!

Jack’s life was no longer in danger after the medical aid was rendered. Achilles sat next to the bonfire

and looked at the dancing flames and said solemnly, “When will Commander arrive?”

“Should be pretty soon.” The other eight Golden Guards sat around the fire and didn’t bother with Jack.

Jack was still unconscious and his limbs were bound. The only difference was he wasn’t in the shipping

container.

Then, in the night sky above the factory started to roar.

“Military planes?” Achilles and the rest tensed and stood up.

“Commander is here. Come with me to receive him.” As the Chief Guard, Achilles led the other eight

Golden Guards out of the factory. All of them began to compose themselves and became poised and

ready to receive their Commander.

The arrival was majestic as the night sky roared to life. The enormous military aircraft filled the night

sky. Achilles was stunned when he saw the aircraft and said, “Only one? Commander came alone?”

“It must be. After all, this time our task isn’t honorable.”

“Brothers, though someone’s going to die for this, we’d also better be mentally prepared for court-

martial.”

On hearing, everyone started to be gripped with fear. Though it was clear to everyone that the

Commander would not severely punish all the Golden Guards, he would certainly not let them get away

with it!

Commander’s orders must be obeyed by the three hundred thousand Dragon Cavalries. He practically

controlled the life and death of three hundred thousand Dragon Cavalries. It wouldn’t be an

exaggeration to say that he was their Lord!

Finally, the aircraft landed. Achilles and the others knelt on one knee respectfully for his arrival.

“Welcome, Commander!” The voices were thunderous although there were only nine of them.

The door of the aircraft opened and a man walked down slowly.

The man was slim, stern, and dignified. Though he did not have Achilles’ build, his body radiated a

glow that couldn’t be ignored.

He walked steadily and purposefully forward. However, each step was like a firm pounding on Achilles

and the rest of them. The nine of them felt increasingly terrified. The Commander was the only one who

could terrify all of them!

As the commander of the three hundred thousand strong Dragon Cavalry, he was like a star that lit up

the entire North Territory. He, alone, suppressed countless foreigners beyond the northern frontier! he

could easily dominate the blood-soaked and fiery battlefield!

“Thou are guilty!” The attractive voice said calmly but it was like a roaring heavenly judgment.

Achilles and the eight of them were stunned. Almost simultaneously, the nine of them bowed to the

ground and declared, “We are guilty and await your punishment!” There were no excuses.

Then, the Commander asked, “Where is he?”novelbin

Achilles and the others quickly rose to their feet but they began to stammer, not knowing how to reply.

Though they were the elite Golden Guards and were above countless men, all of them were nothing in

front of their commander.

All of them looked at the Commander. His features were chiseled and strong while his complexion was

sickly fair. His eyebrows made him look stern while his eyes shone brightly. He looked exactly like the

knight in shining armor in fairy tales.

The Commander frowned and pursed his lips when he didn’t get a reply immediately. It struck fear in

everyone present even though it was a very slight change of expression. This was the aura that he had

accumulated over the countless lives that he had taken. It was as if oppression coursed through his

veins.

He winced and grinned as he walked into the factory, “What a thick odor of blood.”

“Commander, he did it to himself.” Achilles said.

“Oh?” The Commander raised his eyebrow and asked Achilles, “Is there such a fool on earth?”

Achilles didn’t dare to look at him in the eye and quickly lowered his head, “After we locked him up, he

suddenly mumbled about his wife and then violently bashed his head against the container doors,

then…”

“Let’s have a look.” The Commander walked towards the shipping container. As he got closer, he could

see the obvious dent on the door and the fresh blood splattered inside it. Suddenly the Commander’s

smile waned and then he looked at the unconscious Jack who was laying on the ground. At this point,

Jack’s head was bandaged and he looked pale as a sheet of paper due to the severe loss of blood.

“Indeed, there is such a fool. His hands and legs were bound and yet he sought death.”

The Commander scoffed, “He must know that he didn’t have long to live anyway.”

On hearing, Achilles’ spirits were raised. What the Commander said was a clue to how Jack would

soon end up. Jack would be dead as soon as the Commander gave the order.

His disciple Chattis’ score and the lives of the three Golden Guards would be avenged. Even the

provocation and humiliation that he suffered when he fought Jack would be settled with Jack’s death.

But then. Slap!

A huge hand landed on Achilles’ face. The towering Achilles suddenly felt a stinging pain and

staggered a couple of meters backward and fell embarrassingly onto the ground.

“Pooft!” Achilles spit out a mouthful of blood and was stunned. He wanted to speak but half of his face

was already swollen and he found it difficult to even open his mouth.

“Just because of Chattis, you personally deployed the twelve Golden Guards which led to the loss of

three Golden Guards. You know damn well how much effort I spent into grooming them!”

The Commander stood tall and declared mercilessly, “Because of this, you shall lose your position as

the Chief Guard. You will also lose your status as a Golden Guard and become a foot soldier of the

Dragon Cavalry!”
