Arlo quickly said, "Understood, Gramps! Don't worry. I won't just send every Hubbertian. Consul Biffle and I will be there to supervise the search on-site!""Good," Tarlon replied, and reminded him, "Also, you need to notify everyone in your office right away to move out of their Naples office into one of their safehouses. No more losses… understood?!""Understood!" Arlo said, and then he asked hesitantly, "Gramps… may I ask a personal question?""Ask away," Arlo replied.Arlo stared at the stump that had been his left hand and asked, "Is there a chance for me to regrow my hand?"Tarlon was silent, but he eventually said, "I once heard that Lady Griffin has something called a Regeneration Pill that can restore lost limbs and heal internal maladies. But like I said, I've only heard about it but never actually saw one."Still, just hearing about such a pill left Arlo thrilled."Thank you, Gramps! Thank you!" He exclaimed repeatedly.He was well aware that he didn't have what it t

Picking up Arlo's severed hand, Barlin then said, "We will still be staying here, awaiting Her Lordship's next command. If she bestows upon you an opportunity to atone, you must seize it and not disappoint her again."All Arlo could do was nod in agreement."Yes, Elder Barlin. I will do my best…" He said, his voice muted as he continued, "I thank you for your mercy..."Still, he knew very well that Barlin had been more than kind—he felt no pain on the stump that used to be his left hand.It was all thanks to Barlin's Reiki protection, otherwise, the excruciating pain the moment his left hand was cut as well as the healing process would have made him wish he were dead.For Barlin's part, he couldn't bring himself to speak the truth—having been in Nigeria for a while, he knew very well that Arlo was being unfairly blamed.Instead, he said, "We are all Griffins, so gratitude is unnecessary. As stated before, the three of us will remain in seclusion here. Take care.""You will rema

Arlo had no idea that the three elders were coming to punish him, and he told Callum, "I guess Her Lordship is going to withdraw the Three Elders?"Callum nodded, "All we did was wait, but nothing has happened. It's only natural that the Three Elders will leave."Just as he finished, the three elders entered.Leading the group was Barlin, the most powerful of the trio. Upon entering, he turned to Arlo and asked with a look of resignation, "I heard that you made a terrible blunder?"Since the three elders had been sent to Nigeria, Arlo was at their beck and call, so they had become rather familiar.It was no exaggeration that they were pleased with his competence, and therefore, felt some degree of sympathy when they received the order to take his left hand.Arlo didn't expect the three elders to start with that, and he quickly said, "Yes, Elder Barlin. It seems that the mysterious foe attacked another base instead of coming here. To be honest, there was nothing I could have don
Chapter 6872
Despite Fleur's body count, she had never thought to use conventional modern weapons, let alone use a chopper's rotors for decapitation.After all, what respectable cultivator would come up with such ideas? There was no honor in it at all.That was why it frustrated her all the more that her enemy simply refused to play by the rules. It could be guns one day and helicopters the next, and who knew when they would roll out the railguns. And thus, Fleur began to feel genuine fear toward her mysterious foe deep in her heart.However, Tarlon also had a point.They had lost another base, but this was also an opportunity to turn the tables.If they seized the opportunity to identify and eliminate their enemy, they could resolve this crisis once and for all. If they missed this opportunity, finding him again would be much more difficult. After a moment of deliberation, she spoke, "Let's play this safe. Send all three elders, and I'm sure nothing will catch us by surprise. But it'd be

While Tarlon was briefly stunned that Fleur wanted to cut off Arlo's left hand, he didn't try to plead in Arlo's favor.After all, he understood that it was necessary for someone to take the blame, both to enforce Fleur's authority and also to placate her.It was simple—if something this terrible had happened but no heads were rolling, everyone would just assume that the fault lay with Fleur, and that her supposedly clever scheme had gone awry, while the enemy had turned it against her completely by skipping Nigeria and attacking Morocco instead.Thus, severing Arlo's hand would be a way of telling everyone that Arlo was the incompetent one in the issue and that he had been punished accordingly.Fleur also needed this to convince herself that the fault lay with Arlo, and not herself.So, he immediately bowed his head respectfully, "Yes, My Lord. I will inform the three elders myself."That was when he remembered something and quickly added, "By the way, I think that just sending

Tarlon gathered himself before speaking grimly, "Arlo called… The Dead Soldiers base in Morocco. It's… completely destroyed..."Fleur looked stupefied. "Morocco?!"Tarlon nodded. "Yes. I've seen videos. The base was completely destroyed."Fleur bellowed, "It must be that pest again! Shouldn't he have attacked Nigeria?!""No," Tarlon shook her head. "I've asked Arlo. The three elders have been monitoring the base in Nigeria since we began, but no one who could manipulate Reiki ever showed up. I think they must have seen through our trap and deliberately avoided Nigeria by targeting Morocco."Fleur's face was ashen as murderous intent spilled from her, and she growled, "When he saw that Nigeria was a trap, he deliberately chose Morocco because it's not that far away. They mean to provoke us! Just because they can!"Under these circumstances, Tarlon was afraid even to flatter or soften the blow. He simply nodded and said, "Yes, I agree. Our mysterious foe is stronger than we belie
