Chapter 1042
“Oh, one more thing—the Young Marshal asked me to tell you this: under no circumstances are you to throw everything into mutual destruction. Hold your ground and do not sally out. Wait until the main force of the Southern Frontier Army arrives, and then we will crush the enemy in one overwhelming blow.”“At present, a great quantity of Southern Frontier military supplies has already been transported to the East Coast.”“The main force will follow in stages. All that remains is for the Young Marshal to execute the traitors and launch the counteroffensive against Dreadmoor.”Clifford Castillo added.“Good. Good!”“With the brothers of the Southern Frontier Army fighting beside us, Dreadmoor is finished!”“Come—let us speak inside.”Nolan Bennett made a welcoming gesture and led Clifford Castillo inward.Nova City, aboard the aircraft bound for the Southern Frontier.“Young Lord, we’ve just received word: the eight coastal provinces have issued a joint declaration rejecting the so-called

Outside the departure hall, the sight set the travelers talking at once.“That’s a heavy transport from the Southern Frontier Army. Why is it landing at Nova City International Airport?”“No idea. Maybe war is coming. Once war is near, military aircraft start appearing everywhere.”“Will the fighting reach Nova City?”“Nova City falls under the Southern Frontier Army’s jurisdiction. If war breaks out here, then the situation is far worse than people realize.”“That worthless Central Council has already handed the eight coastal provinces over to Dreadmoor. At this point, what is there left that couldn’t happen?”“Heh. The Central Council is nothing but a nest of traitors.”“...”Voices rose and overlapped on every side.Just then, armed soldiers disembarked from the massive transport plane and moved swiftly to secure every entrance and exit.At that same moment, a convoy pulled up outside the airport.Joseph stepped out of one of the vehicles, with Brian Adams and a retinue of attendan

“Old Gutierrez, what is it you want to say?”Vincent Murphy asked, baffled.Preston Gutierrez, however, paid him no heed. He merely lifted the microphone before him, then rose slowly to his feet.“I, Preston Gutierrez, do not recognize the terms of this agreement, and I refuse to sign it.”“I, Preston Gutierrez, come from generations of Elysian blood. I cannot understand the decision the Central Council has made. As of today, I resign my position as an Elder of the Central Council.”“The Gutierrez family will commit the full extent of its fortune to aiding the Elysian army in its counteroffensive against Dreadmoor and in the recovery of our lost lands.”Preston Gutierrez spoke in an even, measured voice, calm and unhurried.Yet to Vincent Murphy and Benson Cooper, those words struck like thunder from a clear sky.“Old Gutierrez... you?”Vincent Murphy was stunned into speechlessness.“Preston Gutierrez, no wonder every task entrusted to you these past years was met either with excuses

“No. Absolutely not.”The quartermaster answered at once.“These supplies are being delivered to us in secret by allied forces. This matter must not be allowed to spread.”“They launched military operations without orders. If they are exposed, the Central Council will never let them off. Do you understand what I mean?”Nolan Bennett warned him.“I do. I do, General, I do.”“Watching so many of our brothers die... I’m grieving too. They were my comrades—my brothers as well.”“If I were the sort to inform on them, then let heaven strike me down. And if I were to commit such a dishonorable act, the spirits of our fallen brothers would never forgive me.”The quartermaster was nearly in tears, his voice already thick with sobs.“Good. Now take me to where those ‘found’ supplies are being kept.”The quartermaster hurried ahead to lead the way.Before long, Nolan Bennett was brought to a warehouse, where a considerable stockpile of advanced weapons and equipment had been stacked inside.“The

“A ceasefire negotiation? Of course it can be called a ceasefire negotiation.”“That depends on what terms they reach. We won this campaign—we drove Dreadmoor off the East Coast.”“And since we won, then we negotiate as victors, and we demand the outcome due to victors.”Joseph’s expression remained calm, but his gaze was razor-sharp.“Then let us wait and see how they intend to conduct these talks.”Neil Foster said, his eyes lighting up.“Have our intelligence operatives—the entire intelligence network—monitor the negotiations closely.”“And inform Dale Jimenez to make ready.”Joseph addressed the room.“Yes, sir!”At his words, everyone answered in unison.East Coast, front line, inside a forward command post.Outside the command post, artillery thundered without pause. Corpses lay strewn everywhere—some their own, some the enemy’s. The fighting had been unspeakably brutal.From time to time, fighter aircraft streaked across the sky, followed by the distant roar of bombardment.“Re

"But before we can accomplish anything truly great, we must first take Metropolis City. If those traitors in Metropolis City continue issuing reckless commands, then our greater cause will never succeed."Joseph nodded as he spoke."You only need to tell us what you require, and we old men will find a way to make it happen.""What the eastern coast needs most right now is advanced weaponry. Over the years, with our cooperation with Southern Frontier, we’ve already produced quite a number of cutting-edge arms.""Of course, we also have our true trump cards in reserve—large-scale strategic weapons. We ask only this: tell us how you intend to use them. Whatever you need, we’ll support you accordingly.""Exactly. You’re a child we old men watched grow up. We listen to you, and to no one else.""..."The room erupted into overlapping voices."Those large-scale weapons, naturally, are meant for Dreadmoor itself. As for when they will be used, you need only wait for my word.""In any case, I
