A few days ago, the look of rage on Reinhardt’s face after watching the Leray Federation’s propaganda film resurfaced in his mind. What he once took pride in turned into fault in an instant. Since that day when the Federation Fatty played a trick right before his eyes, he noticed that Legion Commander Reinhardt no longer looked at him with the sa kindness.
Osullivan sighed. No wonder Reinhardt was cold to him. Emperor Jas of the Gazalin Empire had ultimately been captured by the Leray Federation. Along with a declaration announcing Reinhardt as a traitor and legitimizing Stephen as the crown prince, significant turmoil erupted within the Mythical Army. After all, for every warrior who joined the army since day one, loyalty to the Gazalin Royal Family was their primary principle.
Reinhardt was not synonymous with the royal family. Even though he tightly controlled the entire Mythical Army, even though everyone understood the circumstances under which Jas made this statent, and even though everyone knew it was Stephen who initiated the coup, murmurs began among these silent and iron-blooded warriors.
Especially the warriors who followed him on the mission to Abnosk. They obeyed orders, but afterward, their eyes no longer held the sa determination; confusion and doubt had crept in. In the modern age of highly advanced information, the Leray Federation’s public explanation film on the Abnosk Prison incident, along with the introduction of the Federation Fatty, was impossible to completely block.
When misfortunes co, they do not co singly. At the sa ti as Reinhardt’s fury over this, his partner, the Desic Empire, forcibly rented the Biekelan Planet as a forward base for attacking the Leray Federation. This invasive act, coming uninvited, not only made Reinhardt lose face but was also intolerable to the proud Vibo Warriors of the Mythical Army.
But, given the current situation in Gazalin, the Mythical Army had no choice. If they didn’t cooperate with the Desic Empire, Desic would unhesitatingly turn to support Stephen. For Stephen, this was exactly what he wanted. The army under his control, combined with the forces withdrawn from the Lucerne frontline, could easily render the Mythical Army powerless.
Naturally, all bla fell on Osullivan. Had he not been misled by a magical ship explosion while leading two groups, causing Jas to fall into the Leray Federation’s hands, the situation would not be as difficult as it was now.
Currently, Osullivan had dropped from the first to third Commander, following Horn and Garcia in the Mythical Army’s rankings. Even the newly promoted First Battalion Commander Boge, who replaced Bonnie, had more important missions than his Second Battalion.
Osullivan understood that if he had not been Reinhardt’s absolute confidant and loyal man since before the coup, his days would be even harder.
After Bonnie’s disappearance, the First Battalion was restructured by Reinhardt. The Second Battalion, however, was sent to the mountains, tasked with cooperating with the Desic Empire’s blockade. Reinhardt’s target was the insurgent groups who frequently attacked their forces, while the Desic Empire allowed no signs of Leray Federation activity in the Little Pyrenees Star System. Each side had its needs.
As part of Gazalin Empire’s elite special armored group, Osullivan felt aggrieved about being assigned to a blockade mission. However, fortunately, during this vexing task, their reconnaissance soldiers discovered Bonnie’s whereabouts. No one knew what this woman ant to Reinhardt better than Osullivan.
With unrest in the Mythical Army and rumors spreading that Reinhardt was Jas’s illegitimate son and had betrayed the royal family, Bonnie was soone Reinhardt had to control, whether dead or alive. She held too much influence over the Mythical Army and knew too much.
Mythical Army was Reinhardt’s foundation, and he couldn’t allow any loss of control over it. Bringing Bonnie back would be a great achievent for Osullivan.
"Report! We’ve located Commander Bonnie!" The voice in the regional communication channel invigorated Osullivan, and [Vajra] quickened its pace, bypassing the surrounding escort guards as it moved forward.

Tian Xingjian led a company of [Hunters], rushing southeast.
A hundred [Hunters], six [Anger], and six [Antenna] followed quietly behind the dilapidated [Magic Beast], running swiftly through the forest.
Aside from the rustling of leaves brushed by and the sound of chas stepping into mud and water, the entire team was silent. Over a hundred chas moved like a breeze, traversing mountains and valleys, nimble among every tree, speeding along the way.
Fatty was very satisfied with this Sharp Blade Company dominated by new chas. From the running movents of the chas, it was evident that these chas had imnse explosive power, nimble actions, like predatory spirit cats; they were naturally born assassin special chas.
Fatty decided to acquire the hundred [Hunters] from the SM Second Battalion to form his direct battalion. Properly employing two hundred Ninth Generation chas could exert far more power than two thousand Seventh Generation chas.
"Hide!"
In a sudden brake, [Logic] swiftly circled like a falcon, dodging several large trees and diving into the bushes.
Hearing Fatty’s command, all six [Antenna] activated their tal detectors to full power. The Sharp Blade Company quickly scattered, and within minutes, the entire forest fell silent. Apart from the sound of the cold wind and rustling leaves, there was nothing else. Hundreds of chas seed to have vanished into thin air.
After a few minutes, two distinctive [Black Ard] Single Soldier chas of the Desic Empire passed by in a lead and secondary formation, shortly across a small hill ahead. Evidently, they were the forward reconnaissance soldiers of the unit heading southwest.
The appearance of these two chas unmistakably indicated to Fatty that they were in front of the Desic cha Force. Given the typical distance between scouts and the main force, that Desic cha Force was no more than fifteen kiloters away.
Ti ticked by, and after a few minutes, as the enemy’s reconnaissance chas moved away, Fatty gave the command to "move." All the Sharp Blade Company’s chas leaped out of the forest like a group of agile feline predators, swiftly penetrating forward.

Bonnie stood quietly at the peak of the mountain.
The breeze played with the hem of her clothing, making her look like a celestial painting on this summit.
She didn’t know that just beyond the canyon on the other side, over 2,000 Federation chas were surging down the mountains like a black tide, engulfing everything.
She also didn’t know that less than thirty kiloters ahead, a Mythical cha Group was closing in, their objective being her.
She stood there quietly, letting the cold wind from the mountain slope wash over her. She tried hard to keep herself clear-headed, to figure out what to do next.
At the sa ti, she endeavored to remind herself to forget that one person who ultimately belonged to a different world.

In a diligent effort to increase the volu, perhaps due to a long-term lack of systematic writing, I find it difficult to concentrate throughout the day. I believe I will overco it.
