Female Novel
Chapter 949 Rather Kill All Just for One!
It was the next morning.
When Jack woke up, he saw Zenith was sitting by the side.
His eyesight gradually regained focus, but he found himself lying in Zenith’s room.
“Awake?”
Zenith put his hands down and leaned on the chair in front of the desk tiredly, “You have overslept and
missed today’s morning training.”
“I have been sleeping here for a whole night?”
Jack looked at Zenith in shock. Zenith’s exhausted face was obviously caused by his unchanged sitting
position for the whole night.
“Yes, you fellow is the first person that was accompanied by me to sleep with.” Zenith lifted his hand
and rubbed his face. Then, he lit another cigarette and smoked.
Jack was speechless.
After taking a deep breath, Jack did not dwell on Zenith’s words.
He asked, “How is Cole now?”
“His life is rescued, but he has to recuperate for three months before going back into the battle.”
Zenith shrugged with a cynical look on his face. As he held a cigarette in his mouth, he picked up the
Tao Te Ching on his desk and teased, “You’re indeed relaxed. You will bring this Tao Te Ching with you
wherever you go, it is quite a nice book.”
“I’m used to it.”
Jack sat up again as his body had recovered a lot after a night of deep sleep. However, there was still
soreness as well as a weak feeling all over his body.
“Go back to the barrack and rest for another two days. I have told them not to assign you any missions
during these two days.”
Zenith closed the Tao Te Ching and tossed it directly to Jack, “You guys have made great
achievements in this battle. But to hide this incident, it will not be counted in the military merits. Just
treat it as if nothing has happened before!”
“Alright.”
Jack nodded his head and tidied his clothes. After keeping the Tao Te Ching in place, he got out of his
bed and took two steps outside. He suddenly stopped his steps for a while.
“Still have any problems?”
Zenith frowned and asked.
“There should probably be a spy in the Dragon Cavalry. The mercenaries are heading straight to us.”
After making such a comment, Jack left in a couple of strides without looking back.
Just as he reached the doorway, Zenith’s words were heard by him from the back.
“It is about time. This kind of humiliation, I will rather kill all just for one!”
Jack’s pupils constricted, was this…already known?
He was astounded for a moment, then he was relieved.
What he could think of, with Achilles and Zenith’s battlefield experience, would they not think of it?
Jack rubbed his nose and mocked himself.
It was me thinking too much.
“If you go back now, you should be able to see the Golden Guards settling this issue.”
“Fine.”
When Jack left, the smile on Zenith’s face disappeared.
It was replaced by the usual majestic and grim look.
His eyes narrowed as he looked incredibly stern.
“Without even asking?”
There was a soft murmur of confusion.
Ever since Jack was awakened, Zenith had purposely avoided mentioning the incident of
“Bewitchedness”. However, being the main person involved, Jack did not mention it either.
Zenith closed his eyes while rubbing his nose. He gently knocked on the desk.
Da, da, da…
The sound softly echoed in the room at a steady pace. He seemed to be thinking about something.
It was when Jack returned to the barrack.
Achilles, Debut and Yarol were all in the barrack.
Jack and Cole were the most severely injured in yesterday’s battle.
Among the three of them, Debut was obviously the heaviest and he was wrapped with gauze all over
his body.
All these wounds were mostly formed when three of them shielded Yarol and Cole to retreat.
“Jack, you have recovered so fast?”
Debut was surprised to see Jack. As he recalled the battle yesterday, he could not hide his fear in his
eyes.
Jack scratched his head, “Debut, why do I feel that you are somehow afraid of me suddenly?”
While speaking, Jack took a glance at Achilles and Yarol.
Achilles was calm, but it was Yarol who looked even scared than Debut.
As Jack asked this question, Debut and Yarol were not only afraid, but they were also puzzled.
“Jack, you…”
Debut stammered as he was about to speak.
At the side, Achilles lowered his head and coughed a few times, interrupting Debut’s words, “Debut,
didn’t you forget what the commander had informed?”
Once Debut heard Achilles’s words.
Debut immediately shut his mouth up and lowered his head. Meanwhile, Yarol stared away and
avoided having eye contact with Jack.novelbin
Zenith had given a death order to them not to told Jack about his bold and impressive performance on
the battlefield.
It was right after that.
Achilles stood up and patted Jack’s shoulder, “It is alright, everybody returned safely anyway. Only
Cole needs to recuperate for a while longer.”
“Yes, I know. The commander has told me about it.”
Jack nodded and turned around to ask, “By the way, were there any conflicts in the Thegiant City this
morning?”
Since Zenith had already said something like that, it was apparent that this purge would definitely lead
to a huge conflict.
“The conflict was arising as the day just dawned.”
Achilles said in a serious tone, “The Golden Guards are now dealing with this issue. You guys just
returned, so you can’t feel anything.”
“The commander is really ruthless this time. Will he really kill all just for one?”
Debut wondered and said in fear, “The impact involved in this issue is too great.”
“Yes, I have just gone out and those armies have seen me as a devil, avoiding me deliberately!” Yarol
also shrugged his shoulders and agreed.
The morning training was over.
It was when the first sunray shone into the Thegiant City.
The purge was then carried out and led by the Golden Guards.
The commander had ordered the three Golden Guards to purge the entire three hundred thousand
armies of the Dragon Cavalry at each military rank.
The reason was known at the very beginning of the purge.
The three hundred thousand armies of the Dragon Cavalry all knew that the purge was related to five of
them, but the details had already been classified as the top secret by Zenith. Nobody else knew about
it.
“A spy is the thing that the commander hates the most.”
Achilles rubbed his chin and said in a deep voice, “If there is really a spy in the Dragon Cavalry, it will
be a complete humiliation to the commander. It will be strange if the commander isn’t in such a rage.”
“The conflict should probably last for a day, right?”
Jack rubbed his nose and narrowed his eyes as he chuckled.
It was in the meantime.
People were frightened in the Thegiant City.
From time to time, miserable cries of injustice resounded all over the barracks. There was as if an
invisible huge hand straining the nerves of the three hundred thousand Dragon Cavalry to the extreme
in this morning.
The three Golden Guards investigated all the barracks with their troops. Whoever had a conflict with
either Jack or any five of them was detained and pending to be sentenced.
In the ordinaries’ mind, it was indeed a bit too aggressive to take such actions. However, the real
armies knew that how terrible it would be on the battlefield if there was a spy in the military.
A small leak will sink a great ship, a slight negligence of the spy would cause a disaster in the military!
Of course, Zenith’s strategy was rather to kill all just for one. But for the sake of the military, it would
alert the armies and pose a sense of warning.
It was inside the barrack.
Shawn frowned tightly as his eyes were filled with fear, and he was moody sometimes.
He sat on his chair and clenched his fists while shivering. His expression was sometimes raging but
sometimes restrained.
His entire mood was in an extremely weird and unstable state.
There was even a sound of teeth grinding from his mouth.
He could not have expected that.
Things would suddenly turn out like this!
He had obviously refrained from investigating the incident and avoided the tragedy fortunately.
But in a flash, Zenith had decided to rectify and purge the entire Dragon Cavalry in a serious manner.
In this way, even if he had dodged a bullet, it was still reasonable for him to be detained by the Golden
Guards based on his hatred with Achilles. He would be the only right person to be killed out of those
innocent sacrifices!
“Run, I must run! I will definitely die if I stay here. If I escape…perhaps there is still a chance of
survival!”
Finally, Shawn’s eyes were blazing firmly and his gaze was sharp like a fierce beast.
