Chapter 19 (Second update to catch bugs)



A hundred miles outside the chaotic magnetic area.

The First Legion's ships were lined up.

As soon as Elansno left the chaotic magnetic area, the optical computer contacted the base for support as soon as the signal was restored. Only fifteen minutes later, the warship responsible for the support arrived.

The surviving soldiers came out of the chaotic zone one after another. The weapons were all in Elansno. There was no need to guard the armored vehicles loaded with inferior weapons, so they were all detonated and abandoned.

The injured soldiers were arranged to be treated in special warships, and everything was in an orderly manner.

But there was one person who never came out.

Cain carefully looked at Ellansno's tense jaw and whispered, "... I have sent someone to find Adjutant Kang Quan. There should be news soon."

Elansno closed his eyes and said nothing. The longer the time went on, the lower the air pressure around him became.

"Why don't you eat something first? Your body won't be able to take too much mental energy consumption," Kane advised.

Adjutant Kang Quan was not here, and he was the one who had been with the admiral the longest in the entire First Legion. No one else dared to come over and persuade him at this time.

The admiral came out of the chaotic magnetic zone. Although he didn't have any major wounds on his body, he still had some scratches from the explosion. However, he had consumed too much mental energy but was still holding on without resting...Kain was a little worried, because stomach problems are sometimes related to emotions and mental conditions.

Elan Snow had not changed his clothes yet, which were stained with the evil spirit and smell of blood from the chaotic magnetic area. His fingers, wearing black leather gloves, were resting on the armrests of the chair, tapping them intermittently.

He didn't say anything, and Kane didn't dare to speak up to persuade him.

As time passed, Kane felt that the air around him had become extremely stagnant, making it hard for him to breathe and causing him to groan in pain.

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside the warship.

Soon a soldier came in hurriedly and reported: "General! Adjutant Kang Quan has been found! He was besieged by wall ants and nearly lost his life. He has been rescued and is now receiving emergency treatment!"

Ellan Snow suddenly closed his eyes and stood up: "Where is he?"

Soldier: "The medical ship next to it."

Elansno's eyes darkened, and he said decisively: "Take me there."

"Kenn, you come over here too."

"yes."

As soon as we entered the medical ship, we were hit by the lingering smell of blood. Most of the soldiers were slightly injured, while the seriously injured were all sent to the medical cabin.

Kang's medical cabin had just been closed. His body was soaked in the repair fluid, and his body was full of tiny tubes. Blood was seeping out of the repair fluid, his eyes were tightly closed, and it was unknown whether he was alive or dead.

Elan Snow frowned after just one look: "What's the situation?"

The doctor in charge of the treatment said quickly: "We haven't finished the examination yet, but most of the injuries are superficial, with a few injuries to the bones. They will just need to rest for a while. The tricky part is the trace toxins from the wall ants in the adjutant's body, which need to be slowly removed."

Ellen Snow: "How long will it take?"

Doctor: "Normally, it would take a month to fully recover. But according to the adjutant's physique, it should be..."

"——I'm asking how long it will take for him to wake up."

The pair of cold and violent purple eyes looked over, and the doctor shuddered subconsciously, his whole body went cold, and after a long while, he mumbled, "Only... only about three hours."

"Very good," Ellan Snow turned around, "Now go back to the base, and when he wakes up, lock him in the interrogation room immediately. I will come here personally."

What?! Interrogation room?!

Doctor Kane's eyelids twitched violently.

These words undoubtedly came like a bolt from the blue, catching everyone off guard.

No one could associate Adjutant Kang Quan with the words "interrogation room". Even if they did, it would be in the image of a cold-blooded executioner.

But now Adjutant Kang Quan was seriously injured, but the admiral showed no regard for the friendship that the adjutant had shared with him for many years. As soon as he woke up, he would be put in the interrogation room. His words clearly implied the possibility of execution.

...What big thing happened?

Dr. Kane frowned and glanced at the still unconscious adjutant.

——

First Army Base.

Ellan Snow only had time to change into clean clothes before he began to deal with the problems reported by various districts while he was away.

After hearing that he had returned, Wright of the Second Army quickly called him.

He still looked gentle and upright. "Admiral Elansno, I heard that you personally escorted this batch of new weapons. I believe they have all arrived safely at the First Legion."

Elan Snow was originally leaning back in his chair, but upon hearing this, he leaned forward slightly, giving people a faint sense of oppression. "What do you want to do?"

Wright shrugged. "What can I do? I'm calling you now just to ask you to send our Second Army's share as soon as possible. The war is intense and time is of the essence."

"Your share."

Elan Snow smiled: "Wright, you really have a good calculation. The arms and fire were escorted by our First Army, and the soldiers who died were also from the First Army. You, the Second Army, did not contribute any manpower or effort, but you are just sitting back and enjoying the fruits of others' labor. How can there be such a good deal in the world?"

"Give us two-fifths of the arms. This is His Majesty's order," Wright said in a deep voice. "Do you want to eat it all yourself? Aren't you afraid of eating a hole in your stomach?"

Elansno: "How could I have eaten all of it? It was just that 40% of the arms that were accidentally lost during the transportation to the Second Legion -"

"What does it have to do with me? It's the Second Legion's failure to supervise properly. Guess, does His Majesty trust you or me?"

Robber's speech!

Wright's face almost froze: "Elan Snow!"

"Okay," Elansno said impatiently, and held out his hand, "20%, I'll give you 20%, anything more, I won't get 100%."

Wright's face was gloomy for a while, and finally he snorted coldly, hung up the phone, and his shadow disappeared in an instant.

The office returned to peace.

a long time.

Ellen Snow closed her eyes.

He placed the only two remaining space rings on the table. After a moment, he put one of them away and rang the bell at hand.

Soon another guard came in from outside, "General."

Elansno wiped away the spiritual power left by the ring, and pushed his finger forward, saying casually: "...Send this to the Second Legion and tell Wright that what he wants is inside. If he has the courage, let him take it out himself."

The personal guard stepped forward to take it and put it away.

Ellan Snow reminded: "It contains munitions. Be careful when you deliver it, or it will explode."

“……!”

The guard's serious expression almost broke. He didn't know whether to take the ring or not. Finally, with a cold sweat on his forehead, he said, "Yes!"

He swore that after he got out, he would lock up this thing with three layers inside and three layers outside.

After putting away the ring, the guards had not yet left. Elansno raised his eyes and asked, "What's the matter?"

The guard hesitated and said, "Adjutant Kang Quan has woken up and has just been put in the interrogation room."

Ellen Snow said a little later, "I see. Did he say anything after he woke up?"

The guard thought about it carefully and said, "No, he didn't say anything."

He really didn't say anything. After waking up, Adjutant Kang Quan was stunned for several minutes with a pale face. When he heard that he was about to be locked up in the interrogation room, he didn't say anything to defend himself.

"...Go down and inform Kane to wait for me outside the interrogation room." Ellan Snow waved his hand.

Bodyguard: "Yes."

Unable to bear watching the unresolved military affairs, Ellansno sat in his seat for a while, picked up the coat beside him, put it on, and left.

——

interrogation room.

Countless hard-headed prisoners had been imprisoned here, and their mournful wails seemed to have seeped into every crevice. Even though the room was frequently cleaned and ventilated, there was still a lingering chill.

The blinding white light shone down from overhead, blinding people.

Kang dog was tied to the execution chair.

Because the admiral's order was to have him come to the interrogation room as soon as he woke up, no one dared to apply medicine to him, and they simply changed his clothes.

After being in the medical cabin for three hours and then being tortured like this, the wound that had just begun to heal burst open again, and the ground was covered with blood, which was quite shocking.

The door of the interrogation room opened and closed, and two people came in.

Elansno stopped in front of Kang Dog with a whip in his hand.

The cold white light shone on the dark and cold military boots, reflecting an inhuman light. Kang Quan's eyelashes trembled, and he looked up along the military boots, looking into Elansno's eyes, and forced a smile: "...Admiral."

He turned his gaze slightly and fell on Dr. Kane, who was sweating profusely: "Kane, you are here too."

Kane gave a smile that was uglier than crying.

Who can tell him what happened? He is just an innocent doctor who doesn't want to get involved in these things!

Ellan Snow took a step forward, and his military boots stepped into the bloody water, making a sticky sound.

He bent his legs and stepped beside the execution chair. He grabbed the chain tied around Kang Dog's neck with his right hand wearing a black leather glove, wrapped it around his wrist, and pulled it forward with all his strength.

Bang! The chain tightened suddenly, and the tiny spikes on it pierced into my neck.

Kang Quan's breathing stagnated, and he was pulled forward by the force. He was forced to look up at the dazzling light above his head. His eyes were stinging, and physiological tears welled up in his temples. He coughed continuously.

"Wolf."

Elansno lowered his eyes coldly, "Those two rings contain my spiritual power, so when I was close to them, I could vaguely feel what happened, Kang Quan——"

He shook his hands fiercely, "You are so brave!"

Kang Dog tilted his head to one side, suddenly realizing.

No wonder…

No wonder the admiral put him in the interrogation room without asking any questions. It turned out that there was no need to ask in the first place.

When he chose to throw away the two rings, he thought of today.

He knew that he had let the admiral down, and the sense of betrayal and the thin moral bottom line in his heart were fighting each other, almost driving him crazy.

Kang Quan had never thought about hiding this matter, but he just didn't want to see the admiral's disappointed eyes, so he chose to fall into the tide of wall ants to end it all once and for all, taking everything down with him, so that no one would blame the admiral.

Unexpectedly, he was rescued by the people of the First Legion.

This is fine. Even if the formal procedures are followed, it was he, not the admiral, who lost the arms, so the responsibility lies with him.

It's just a different way of dying.

Kang Quan said in a low voice: "I'm sorry."

He couldn't do it. He knew clearly about the purge plan, but he had to watch the batch of experimental equipment being transported to the Federation, making the C9 star zone the next Ice Cast City.

Call him despicable, selfish, incompetent, and short-sighted, but even if doing so can only delay the matter for a while, he is willing to do it.

He kept this secret to himself and didn't dare tell anyone, not even his family, for he was afraid that what he said would be captured by the star network and thus implicate the entire family, or even the entire C9 star region.

But he has no regrets.

Ellan Snow said calmly: "The reason."

"Money? Status? Power? Or beauty?" He asked in a low voice, "What can't I give you?"

Kang Dog moved his lips but did not answer.

Then Elansno took a half step back and nodded as if he understood something, his violet eyes turning dark.

"Yes, betrayal is betrayal. It is an established fact. There is no need to ask the reason."

Unlocking the chain, he looked at the wound on Kang Dog's body that was bleeding continuously, "Does it hurt?"

Kang Dog shook his head in silence.

Ellan Snow sighed: "Adjutant, you are the person I trust the most. I regard you as half a brother and a friend."

That was why he listened to Kang Quan and ate his meal well, letting him take care of things. Even though he felt dissatisfied, he understood that the other party was thinking about him, so he suppressed his temper and endured it all.

Kang Quan shuddered, gritted his teeth, and closed his eyes: "...General, I'm sorry. You blamed me for this. I bear it all by myself. It has nothing to do with you... Please take care of my family for the sake of my many years of companionship..."

When a military officer commits a crime, the disaster will not affect his family, but if the news gets out, their lives will inevitably be more difficult.

Ellen Snow: "You can't afford it."

He personally loosened the restraints of the execution chair, pulled the chain, and with a bang, Kang Dog fell to the cold ground, gasping for breath.

There was a mess of blood all around, and the blood on the ground was chaotic for a moment, then calmed down again, reflecting Ellan Snow's face that could not tell whether he was happy or angry.

"After all these years of friendship, I will not embarrass your family, nor will I hand you over to anyone else. I will deal with you privately to save your face."

His mental power condensed into a golden blade light, and Elansno lowered his head to look down at the wolf crawling on the ground.

"I'll give you a ride myself."
