Female Novel
Chapter 873 Thegiant City, Chief Guard Hughes
Snowstorms plagued the land.
A world of ice and snow.
It was a boundless realm.
Everything here was covered with snow. Thick white snow piled up the wilderness.
Winter was around the corner, and the winter in northern region was much more severe.
A massive and lofty city stood still in the middle of the endless snowfield. The city stood tall on the
plain, firm like a mountain, getting showered with chilling winds and snow. Like an ancient behemoth,
laying dormant on the ground, it showed endless majestic and dominance.
On top of the city walls, Five-pawed Dragon flags were hung up high. And despite of the heavy snow,
all the flags were fluttering freely in the wind.
The city walls were huge and heavy, and it was covered with traces of war. Cracks, holes and scars
from the war could be seen on the city wall. One could not imagine how many wars this city had gone
through, or how many times it had been destroyed and rebuilt again. And until this day, this renowned
city still sat steadily at the Northern Territory, stopping all the foreign enemies outside of the territory
from passing through.
It was also hard to imagine.
In the midst of ice and snow, this ancient city could even exist here.
Normal people would not even consider stepping their foot here in this icy snowy land.
However, for those who really understood why this city existed.
The very existence of this city was the reason how the northern region got to keep their peace and
tranquility. And the northern region had a land mass of three million square kilometers.
Thegiant City !
This was a city that single-handedly dominated the three million square kilometers land in the northern
region. This city had defeated hundreds of foreign forces, and stopping the foreign armies from
marching passed the Northern Territory.
In the heart of the northern people, ever since Thegiant was built, it had stopped all wars from entering
the northern borders, and kept the war outside of the borders.
The war in the northern region had never stopped before.
However, the warzone had shifted from the inside of the northern territory, to the outer parts of the
territory, where the major foreign force was.
Thegiant was known to be a fierce city, all because of the three hundred thousand Dragon Cavalry
armies that were stationed there. But most importantly, it was because of the person in charge of the
Dragon Cavalry… Zenith Harol!
The all-powerful general, who led the three hundred thousand heroic men, and suppressed foreign
force for nearly twenty years.
Before this, the people in the northern region could never imagined this could even happen.
But… Zenith did it!
For the people who lived in the north, Thegiant held a significant position in their hearts. The city was
more than just a guardian city; it was a place of pilgrimage.
That being said.
Thegiant stood silently in the snowstorm. All of a sudden, the silence was broken by the loud
thundering sounds of the fighter jets.
Hundreds of fighter jets swept through the skies, covering the sky like dark clouds. They rapidly
approached overhead of Thegiant.
There were two aircraft amongst the hundreds of fighter jets. One was a heavily damaged private
plane, and the other was a Five-pawed Dragon fighter jet. Surrounded and protected by the hundreds
of fighter jets, they descended into the airfield like a king.
When all of the fighter jets landed at the landing area of Thegiant.
The cabin door opened.
Zenith took the initiative and entered the private plane.
And inside, he met Jack who had already gotten back on his wheelchair.
“Thanks a lot.”
Jack said gratefully.
Zenith took a glimpsed at the air hostess who was injured and fainted, and spoke to Jack coldly, “Go
and get a rest first, I’ll get someone else to handle this.”
And at this moment.
The cockpit door suddenly opened.
The captain was a middle-aged man in his forties. When he got out of the cockpit, he felt weak and
dizzy all of a sudden.
The captain would probably slump to the ground if Jack did not lend him a hand.
“Mr… Mr.Hughes…”
The captain face turned pale as he looked at Jack in fear.
Previously, when he was attacked by the fighter jet at the height of ten thousand meters, he could still
control his emotions.
But when hundreds of fighter jets appeared, the captain was totally dumfounded.
Even after he had been flying for almost twenty years, he had never experienced such a glorious
moment before.
Fighter jets, the most formidable weapon of a country!
And this time, he was escorted by hundreds of fighter jets. He could brag about this until his last breath.
Truth be told, just now when they were surrounded by hundreds of fighter jets, he was so shocked he
could not even steadily move his hands and feet. If it was not because of his duty, he could have
crashed the plane. In the end, he gritted his teeth and tried to stay as calm as possible, and safely
landed the plane on the ground.
And now, he could not hold it anymore.
“Thank you. If it was not because of you, maybe this time we…”
Jack shook his head and said to the captain gratefully.
“No, no, no. This, this is my responsibility.” The captain immediately shook his head and replied.
‘Are you kidding!’
A person escorted by hundreds of fighter jets. Who could believe that he was just an ordinary person?
Before this, he could still communicate with Jack like a normal person. He was neither humble nor
pushy; but now, he could not maintain that attitude anymore.
In his entire life, he had never thought he could witness that kind of scene in the air.
Jack did not say much. He looked at Zenith and said, “Help me thank them. I’ll leave this place to you.”
“Sure!”novelbin
Zenith nodded his head. He looked at Jack who was pushing his wheelchair, raised his eyebrows and
said jokingly, “But you better address me as Commander. After all, now at the Dragon Cavalry, and this
is my turf. You are my Chief Guard too, so you have to show me some respect in front of my three
hundred thousand men.”
Jack was astonished, and then he laughed. “No problem, senior fellow apprentice.”
“…” Zenith was speechless.
Jack laughed but did not say anything else. He passed by Zenith and then headed out of the plane.
Admittedly, he was the Chief Guard. And within the Dragon Cavalry, he was above everyone else and
the only person one rank lower than Zenith.
But Zenith was also Uncle Brown’s disciple, so it was fine for him to address Zenith as his senior fellow
apprentice.
Someone was already waiting for him at the cabin door.
To Jack’s surprise, the person who was waiting at the door was… Achilles!
On his previous trip to the capital city, there was an incident involving Chattis. And because of that,
Chattis’ master who was also a Chief Guard at that time, assembled the Twelve Golden Guard and
tried to condemn Jack.
The fight that broke out at the twisting mountain roads of TM Villa District almost took Brent’s on the
spot.
Achilles failed in condemning Jack at that time. And because of this incident, Zenith stripped the Chief
Guard position from Achilles’ master, and gave it to Jack.
It would not be an overstatement to say that they had a long-standing feud against each other.
“Welcome to Thegiant city, Chief Guard Hughes.”
Achilles looked at Jack with mixed feelings. But he quickly calmed himself down, and courteously
bowed down his head at Jack.
Then, he moved behind Jack and pushed his wheelchair and exited the plane.
However, to Jack’s surprise.
The scene that he had predicted earlier on did not appear.
He was appointed as the Chief Guard, so he could be considered as the second most high ranked
commander in the Dragon Cavalry. By right, there would be at least some welcome party waiting for
him upon his arrival here.
In the huge landing area, other than the fighter jets and the Dragon Cavalry soldiers that just landed
together with him, there was no one else here.
As for the Dragon Cavalry soldiers, they just securely parked their fighter jets, and left the landing area
without looking back.
Jack was very confused.
Achilles who was standing behind Jack, seemed to know why Jack was feeling confused.
In a low, muffled voice, he explained, “Chief Guard Hughes, your itinerary is here quite complicated.
Therefore, for your safety, the Commander has intentionally suppressed all information regarding your
arrival. Only the Commander and the Twelve Golden Guard knows you are here. You should take a
rest first. Later, the Commander will come to you to follow up on the related arrangements.”
