C2211 Curiosity
Bernard was very satisfied with Alvin's transformation. Although this incident had caused Alvin to be injured... He had been lying in bed for a month, and there were even a few warriors who had sacrificed themselves. However, these things had also caused Alvin's mentality to change. He no longer wanted to dawdle. He took the initiative to seek improvement. This was the best consolation for his talent and those dead warriors.
The supreme commander also looked at Alvin with interest and said, "I believe in your judgment, old squad leader. I am very curious about how far this kid can go."
"Anyway, he will definitely go further than us." Bernard said.
In his eyes, even if the person next to him had become a general, he did not walk very far. Sometimes, walking not far away did not have much to do with his position.
"Sometimes, I really envy these little fellows. If I were a little younger... It's not like I have such a military rank. Maybe I would go and meet those traitors of Flaming Wind Kingdom. Sigh. " The general said with some envy and regret.
Although he was now in a high position, however, what he missed the most... It was still in the past... He enjoyed the thrilling days of completing missions with his comrades. Unfortunately, those days never came back. He was no longer a young man, nor was he a soldier.
"Leave those things to the little guy." Bernard said. How could he not be in love with his past life? However, they had to understand reality.
"By the way, what did the higher-ups say about the incident in Flaming Wind Kingdom?" Bernard asked the general beside him.
"What else can they say? They are arguing with Flaming Wind Kingdom." The general said, "If you want me to say it, why waste my time talking to them? We can just fight them. Over the years, those people from the Flaming Wind Kingdom had become more and more arrogant. This time, it's even more outrageous. They dare to barge into my camp. When we arrive at the battlefield, let's see how I'm going to deal with them. "
"Do you think fighting a war is so easy? You think fighting a war is so easy?" Bernard looked at his old subordinate with disdain and said, "There are a lot of things that the people above need to weigh. They definitely don't fight when they are hot-headed. Besides, you dare to say that once a war really starts, we will definitely win? I don't think we have much confidence in winning. "
" Even so, we can't watch those guys being so arrogant. " The general said. Obviously, he also thought that if they were to start a war now... It wasn't a good thing for their Fengji Country. He was in this position. Naturally, he knew some things. Although the Fengji Country was now much stronger than it was ten years ago... However, it was hard to say if they could really defeat the Flaming Wind Kingdom.
"Haven't you reached a conclusion yet?" Bernard ignored the general's complaints and asked directly.
"It's not that easy. This time, the Flaming Wind Kingdom won't admit those people's identities no matter what. They will only say that they don't know who those people are." The general said.
Bernard nodded and said, "As expected."
Sneaks like these carried out relatively secret missions. Once the mission failed, the country would not recognize them. Just like how they had never had any status before, Bernard and the others had done similar things before. Therefore, this was understandable.
"However, the people of Flaming Wind Kingdom seem to know that they were in the wrong. It has been quiet for the past month." The general said.
"We can't be careless." Bernard said, "The matter of the Spatiotemporal Secret Key has not been resolved yet. It seems that they value that thing so much. They probably won't give up. Who knows, they might even send someone to our place."
"If they still dare to come, that's perfect. Let's see how I'm going to deal with them." That general said: "But what you said makes sense. According to the news from our spies, the Flaming Wind Kingdom indeed attached great importance to that 'Spatiotemporal Secret Key'. Unfortunately... Our people do not have enough authority, so we are not able to understand more of the core secrets. I wonder what that 'Spatiotemporal Secret Key' looks like. What's the use of it?"
"I'm also quite curious about that thing. It must be something extraordinary to be able to make the people of Flaming Wind Kingdom attach so much importance to it. It's just that I don't know where it is." Bernard said.
"We have searched the entire camp, but we didn't find any gems. Old squad leader, do you think they might have made a mistake?" The general said.
"As long as the higher ups of Flaming Wind Kingdom aren't pigs, they won't make a mistake twice in a row." Bernard said.
"That's true." The general nodded.
The people of Flaming Wind Kingdom had come to this camp twice. Obviously, their goal was very clear. It was already very certain that the thing was in this camp. However, what gave the general a headache was that he had already searched the entire camp. He didn't find the gem, but he knew... Now, it wasn't only the people of Flaming Wind Kingdom who were interested in the gemstones, but also the higher ups of the Fengji Country. There were also many people who were interested in the gem. They had instructed him to find the gem.
And now, after searching the entire camp, he was still unable to find the Spatiotemporal Secret Key. This made the general not know how to reply to the boss above.
"I don't know where the gem is, and who brought it to the camp." The general said.
Bernard was also very curious about this, but he also had no answer. The two of them were at their wits' end about this matter.
Angus was also troubled by the matter of the gemstones.
Angus's life in the past month had not been easy. After all, he had always been responsible for searching for the Spatiotemporal Secret Key. This matter had been going on for a long time. Initially, he thought that he could easily find the gem. However, the truth was that he had yet to succeed. Not only had he failed twice, but he had also aroused the suspicion of the Fengji Country. At the same time, he had also lost many experts.
All of these had put him under quite a lot of pressure recently. boss, who was on the higher ups, had become less and less confident in him, especially after what had happened this time. He had been reprimanded more than once.
Initially, Angus felt that he had a lot of confidence in this mission. After all, the people he had sent this time were the elites of the elites. With great strength, he could go to a camp that wasn't too big. Kidnapping a rookie shouldn't be a problem.
However, just like the last time, he failed again. Not only did it alarm everyone in the camp, but it also made Angus unable to accept that the people he sent actually leaked the contents of the mission!0
It could be said that the death of Dawn and the others, Angus actually felt that it was a pity. However, it did not affect them too much. It wasn't that unacceptable. It was something that he couldn't accept. It was... Those people had actually leaked the contents of the mission before they died... This way, the people on the Fengji Country's side would know the content of their mission. It would be much more difficult to carry out the mission next time.
Because of this, Angus was very angry about this matter. In fact, Dawn and the others were even more dead than when they heard that they had failed the mission. He was even more furious that those people had died and left such a mess behind for him. If they were still alive, they would appear in front of him now. He would have skinned them alive too!
After Dawn and the others died, Angus could totally find someone else to carry out his mission. Although the people he sent might not be the elites of Dawn and the others, however, as long as the Fengji Country did not know the content of their mission... He would have the possibility of completing the mission.
And now, the difficulty of this mission had suddenly increased by quite a bit. The Fengji Country side already knew the content of their mission, and they knew that they were going to that camp. They were going to find a very important gem. If that was the case... They would definitely be prepared. They wanted to sneak into the camp again... It was almost impossible, unless those Fengji Country people were idiots.
Obviously, although Angus had seen quite a number of people from the Fengji Country, he also understood that they were not fools.
The news that came from the Fengji Country recently also confirmed Angus's worries. The spies that were hiding there had sent back the news. The camp that Alvin was in had become much more heavily guarded. At the same time, the upper echelons of the Fengji Country also told the people in the camp to search for the whereabouts of the gem.
This made Angus feel nervous. Luckily, what made him heave a sigh of relief was... Those people from the Fengji Country were unable to find the gem. It seemed like that Alvin either didn't know about the existence of the gem. Or don't want to hand over the gem.
Regardless of which possibility it was, Angus heaved a sigh of relief. In this way, there was still a chance, but it was just a slim chance.
On the other hand, the Fengji Country had also strongly condemned this matter. They even blamed the higher ups of the Flaming Wind Kingdom, and the higher ups of the Flaming Wind Kingdom. Naturally, they would not admit this matter anymore. The relationship between the two parties had become very tense.
Fortunately, the two countries weren't prepared for an all-out war. And the matter of sending spies to each other was already known to everyone. Therefore, although the relationship between the two countries was tense, but... But it didn't worsen to the point where it couldn't be salvaged.
Of course, Angus, who was in charge of this matter, wouldn't have such an easy life. Those higher-ups who were reprimanded by the Fengji Country naturally had to vent the anger in their hearts, and Angus was that punching bag.
Because of this, Angus's life in the past month had been very difficult, and he was constantly being scolded and scolded by boss.
