Black sail

Chapter 694 LXXIV. The Hungry Wolf Adventure Team

Backstage area of ​​the venue, emergency medical room.

A fluorite spotlight shines on the operating table.

Julius was covered in blood and gore, barely breathing, and in complete shock, he gradually lost vital signs.

"Few people would use such ruthless methods in the finals. There is no other way to save him except through life alchemy."

Masks, gloves, sterile gowns.

A dozen or so doctors huddled together, quickly discussing the clinical plan.

Because it's an emergency room, where survival is the only guarantee, the syringes thicker than a bicycle pump, the three-foot-long saw, and the various medical equipment already have a somewhat terrifying feel to them.

"If it were life alchemy, lifespan would be greatly reduced, but given his current condition, he's not concerned about that anymore. He'll thank us after the procedure."

"A doctor said."

"Didn't you guys see the news during the day? This person seems to have a great hatred for Mingyan. Life alchemy is an extreme method and is not included in the organizer's medical regulations... Why don't we do Mingyan a favor?"

The lead doctor made a decision.

The Imperial Guard is responsible for protecting the safety of the royal family and their relatives, and it consists of a considerable number of personnel.

In addition to those around Phoenix, there were others providing warnings in the other passageways and anywhere that might lead to the royal seat.

"This person must be saved, by any means necessary."

A tall, dark figure, violating the rules of the infirmary, leaned against the door of the infirmary while holding a large sword.

"Lord Kane?"

The leading doctor was taken aback.

He was about 2.4 meters tall, with a wolf's head and a human body. His body was covered in black fur, and he was also wearing heavy black armor. A piece was missing from his left ear, and his bright red beast eyes held a terrifying ferocity.

Entering the imperial court through the Continental Martial Arts Tournament is considered an unorthodox path; the proper way requires years of careful and meticulous progress.

Kane, who had served as the attendant of the Black Sword Netherflame for several years, has now officially become a member of the Royal Guard based on his seniority and his achievement of protecting Phoenix. He holds a high position and can command the Royal City Army.

"Do as I say."

Kane's tone was chillingly cold.

Black Sword Dark Flame has many weaknesses on him, and even though they are now on equal footing, he still has many things to control and uses against him.

The top four finishers in the Continental Martial Arts Tournament are also qualified to join the Imperial Guard; this is a godsend opportunity.

The leading doctor only pondered for a moment. It would be good to do Mingyan a favor, but whether there would be any profit was another matter.

Rather than offending Kane, who is also a member of the Royal Guard, and getting retaliated against, it's better to know what to do.

"Inject excitatory and depressant drugs and catalysts to immediately prepare for the imprinting of the alchemy of life."

Extreme treatment measures for Julius began.

After observing for a while and confirming that there was no problem, Kane left the infirmary and returned to his post to patrol.

This is a breaking news story.

He found out about it, of course.

That guy... he's still alive after all these years?

at the same time.

At the mainland martial arts tournament, the female host was doing the final warm-up work, and the amount in the betting pool had already soared to astronomical figures.

The 16th Continental Martial Arts Tournament will conclude with a historic showdown between the Divine Sword Dragon and the strongest dark horse, Ge Delei.

The fireworks display was deafening, continuously shooting into the sky.

The two were still catching up on their status backstage.

Since there wasn't much background information on Gerdrey, the female host recounted Xiaolong's various experiences as a legendary adventurer.

The stars are at their most beautiful on the day of the Star Gazing Festival, with some celestial bodies converging and the Milky Way shining brightly, creating a truly beautiful sight.

On the royal special seat.

Due to limitations in inkjet printing technology, although newspapers could publish photographs, they were only available in black and white.

Intelligence agents in Lostella immediately faxed copies of the newspaper to the relevant departments of the Aranese court. Information asymmetry and the speed of information transmission are, without exception, the most crucial factors in the power struggle between major nations.

Cicero took the newspaper.

The official media of Lostela cannot report such politically biased matters; they can only delegate them to private media.

That's what the newspapers say.

Black Sail was one of the international brigade members that joined the anti-imperialist front in Muron. They dealt with the former deputy head of the Old Aran Witch Hunter Secret Service, who had once struck fear into the hearts of the entire western continent.

Given that this person was active 20 or 30 years ago, which is quite a long time ago according to the sixteen-month calendar.

Many young people don't know who he is; the focus is on describing his "life and death".

A photo of the Black Sails and Zote together was also published in the newspaper.

These people seemed completely unconcerned, treating it as just a tourist attraction to check off their list.

A large Argonian axe was brandished at Zote's neck.

A highland werewolf even squatted next to the corpse, making a peace sign with both hands and sticking out its tongue in a very rock-and-roll manner.

The rest of the people were relatively normal.

Lisite, in the center position, is standing with her feet firmly planted on Zote's corpse, making a somewhat idiotic peace sign.

Cicero: "..."

He was silent for a long time.

When the old Aran king was cut in half at the waist on his throne, Augne and Zote, along with many of his officers, were purged.

The most terrifying symbol of the Western Continent, the head of the Secret Service, Augner, attempted suicide by shooting himself to escape trial before being captured. However, he arrived at the last minute and stopped him. After a public trial, he was sentenced to death.

Zote was imprisoned in the Northern Prison. He escaped during the riots years ago, and the royal court sent a special pursuit team. However, he was extremely cunning and had a strong sense of counter-surveillance. He moved around to various places, and there was no progress for a long time.

Unexpectedly, he ended up dying at the hands of a group of pirates.

This has made things complicated...

The prison riot was originally a dereliction of duty by the royal court, but given Zote's viciousness, this group has done a great service by eliminating Aran's biggest remnant of the previous dynasty, the number one wanted criminal.

Although from the perspective of Aran justice, it is still possible to kill Lister.

But the judiciary and practice are not the same thing.

"Proceed as originally planned."

Cicero reached a conclusion.

With his high position, even if the sky were to fall, it wouldn't be a big deal and wouldn't affect his decisions.

Alicia can be handed over to anyone, but not to Lostella. Lister's forces must be destroyed and she must be arrested and brought back to the country.

However, some details have changed.

When Li Si was on trial, considering that his merits and demerits canceled each other out, he was sentenced to a minor crime and detained for a few years or ten years. This would be more convincing to the public and would also quell domestic opposition.

But it wasn't really about letting Li Site off the hook. The main point was to keep a low profile while Li Site was in custody, gradually reduce his influence, slowly increase his sentence and sentence until he was no longer useful. After that, let alone executing him, the outlaw of Heaven's Harbor was in such a state that he might even commit suicide.

Pretending to be deaf and dumb during this period and giving it the cold shoulder is a big no-no, as it will stir up uncontrollable undercurrents, and all parties will use this matter to their advantage.

As long as you don't express your opinion, it's fine.

"it is good."

Phoenix simply nodded, his gaze involuntarily drifting to Salet and Kaden below. Although he hadn't come here just to go through the motions, he simply couldn't handle these matters; they were too astonishing—enemies his father and the others had faced back then.

It almost destroyed Ben's heart!

Brother Li is ruthless! No one is capable of doing something like this. Thankfully it was a false alarm, but I'll still deal with your purchase! That was close! I'm still in control! In control! Overlord!

To Cicero, everyone in the photograph except Zote was a nobody; he didn't even know which one was Lister.

Given how things have developed, further investigation is still necessary.

Have Wesker call Ben over and have him identify who's in the group photo.

Given the opportunity to perform, Ben certainly wouldn't dare to slack off and dug up all the secrets of the Black Sail members.
