The soldiers were in unison, and the sound of their footsteps was a very powerful scene. This was because it perfectly demonstrated the soldiers' discipline. If there was no iron discipline to restrain and train them, as long as one person was confused, the sound would become chaotic.

A man in the crowd saw this scene, his face was calm, but he was very anxious. He came here today for a special mission. There were dozens of his companions in the crowd, but he was surprised to find that the drones and the soldiers' crossbows were already loaded and ready to fire. Hundreds of drones were hovering over their heads, monitoring the suspicious elements in the crowd.

Especially the Iron Guards, they didn't even look at the crowd, but he could feel a terrible aura searching for the enemy. I'm afraid the top leaders of the Reunion Movement had already thought that someone would deliberately create an accident under the camera of the reporters to damage the reputation of the Reunion Movement, so they sent their most elite soldiers to maintain order. There might be a large number of ambushes hidden in the surrounding buildings, prepared just for them.

The man was rapidly thinking of countermeasures in his mind. In this scenario, their original plan was no longer effective, but they could not retreat. This was the best opportunity. The integration movement must be suppressed in all aspects, whether it was in terms of public opinion, economy or military.

He was not afraid of death. When he accepted his mission, he knew that this trip was a sure death. But they were black snakes, who had vowed to dedicate their lives to Ursus. If there was a possibility of completing the mission, he would not hesitate to sacrifice himself and his companions to complete it.

The man's eyes suddenly became sharp, and the dagger in his sleeve fell into his hand. He felt it, felt some special breath mixed into the crowd. He raised his head and winked at his companions, and they began to form groups of two or three, each alert to the other's back.

But their team leader began to hesitate at this moment. If their colleagues from the Integration Movement mixed in with the crowd, it would be much more difficult for them to launch an attack, almost impossible.

He was not afraid of casualties, but if their casualties did not cause any damage to the enemy, it would just be a meaningless death. The current situation was that the enemy had made full preparations, laid a net, and had long anticipated their appearance. It could be said that they had fallen into a completely passive situation.

The soldiers were almost finished marching and the celebration was about to end. He had to make a decision immediately. This was his last chance.

The leader, who had always been extremely calm, now had a little sweat on his forehead. Even the dagger in his hand felt slippery.

The Rise of the Reunion: Chapter 108: A New Plan

The Snakes' plan was to massacre the reporters in this scene, leaving only half of them alive. This way, they would pass on a lot of negative news, and the Integration Movement would have no way to defend itself against such dirty water.

The integration movement's protection of those journalists was extremely comprehensive, and even they could not infiltrate them. Moreover, their leaders were all powerful people, and assassination was extremely difficult, so they were forced to use this last resort. They planned to accomplish this matter even if it cost a certain amount of casualties.

But now……

He slowly took a step back, and the other companions in the crowd also understood what he meant. Soon, as the celebration ended, the crowd began to slowly disperse, and they followed the crowd to the address where their current hidden identities were located. In this process, these well-trained killers did not reveal any flaws.

They need a more stable and more reliable plan instead of rushing out recklessly. If they do that, they will not be snakes but brainless fools.

………………

Lyudmila was dressed like an ordinary Ursus girl today, wearing a thick fur hat and dyeing her hair black. Her facial features were also filled with special materials to camouflage her face, making it rounder, and she didn't look like the skinny assassination team leader at all.

She also mixed in with the crowd to watch the ceremony, but in the process she quietly investigated the people around her, searching for suspicious individuals. Her men also mixed in with them. Rhodes Island has been cooperating with the Integration Movement at a deeper level during this period, and they have also received unique training from Rhodes Island's professionals. So now they are not only good at assassination, but also disguise, infiltration and other work that requires dark workers to do.

What's more, they were all Ursus, and it was very natural for them to blend into the Ursus team without arousing any suspicion.

But it was regrettable that until the end of the celebration, no rats actually took action. Although they were transferred here just to prevent trouble before it happens, they also wanted to make a contribution, but the other party seemed to be extra cautious, and seeing such tight defenses, they gave up their plans.

When the mission was over, she and her team members gathered together and returned to their secret base. As the dark side of the integration movement, they were daggers hidden in the dark and could not be exposed to the enemy openly. So they could not share the glorious honor today. Although they had the best treatment, she and her team members still felt a little regretful and unwilling.

Returning to her room, she removed the disguise on her face and turned back to her original appearance, the red-haired Rupert girl. Her face still looked sharp, but it was not caused by malnutrition, but because she maintained her weight for her mission and mission. After all, if she was too heavy or obese, many tasks could not be completed well.

Although their general did not agree with this approach, as he believed that soldiers would easily become weak on the battlefield if they did not maintain adequate nutrition, he also knew the particularity of the work behind the scenes, so he still understood their ideas.

Lyudmila stood up and stretched. It was a rare moment of relaxation before her. She couldn't help but reveal a happy smile.

She initially joined the Reunion Movement for the purpose of revenge and survival. Her father was originally a scientist of Ursus, but because of the betrayal and selling out of his colleague Lord Kal'tsit, her father was innocently executed, so she wanted to take revenge on Kal'tsit and Ursus. This was her original idea.

When she first learned that the Reunion Movement was in contact with Rhodes Island, especially when she knew that Kal'tsit was in Rhodes Island, she almost lost her mind and wanted to sneak into Rhodes Island to assassinate the other party. However, the discipline cultivated by years of military training and the trust in her generals made her meet with Claude before taking action and tell him her thoughts.

After learning about her situation, Claude was very surprised. He sent a request to Rhodes Island without any hesitation, hoping to meet with Dr. Kal'tsit. Then he took her to Rhodes Island, wanting her to question Kal'tsit in person.

After meeting Kal'tsit, she was not too emotional because of Claude's warning, and Kal'tsit also used solid evidence to prove to her that her father was not betrayed by Kal'tsit. They were comrades with similar ideals. In order to prevent Ursus from launching another large-scale war, they blocked their research results, which was an unforgivable betrayal in Ursus, and her father was executed by Ursus for this.

Since then, she has completely untied her knot in her heart. She has only one goal in the future, which is to avenge her father against the corrupt country of Ursus. Under the leadership of Claude, she firmly believes that the day of victory will definitely come. And she will make every effort for a new, just and bright country.

"The target's strength has been raised to the highest level. Ordinary methods are no longer effective. We are requesting support from Snake Venom."

The electromagnetic wave signal spread outward along the city's communication tower, and no one discovered this secret line. Now the snake scales lurking here are sending out a message requesting support.

Even with the most advanced communication technology in Ursus, they could not send the message back in a short time, so they were alert while waiting for the message to be delivered. During the whole process, except for the member who sent the message, no one else made any extra movements, even breathing as slowly as possible, hiding themselves completely in the darkness.

With his breath still and steady, the message finally arrived without any prompt sound, but they knew it accurately. Everyone here was an elite member, so their team leader did not hesitate and read the message directly.

"Approved request. The highest level of snake venom will arrive at Port 22 at 04:3 tomorrow evening to be handed over to Informant No. 4. The mission level is raised to the highest level. Failure and retreat are not allowed."

The team leader breathed a sigh of relief. Although there was no possibility of retreating now, as long as the "Snake Venom" could reach them, they would have a chance to complete the mission, instead of being hopeless like before.

Rise of the Reunion: Chapter 109: Fangs in the Shadows

Because of his healthy lifestyle, Claude had an accurate biological clock. Every time the canteen opened for dinner, he would start to feel hungry. After the devilish political training some time ago, Claude made up his mind to do it himself. He quickly collected a group of young people with talent in this area from his team and handed them over to experienced old officials for training. In just a few months, he formed a team of civil servants who could handle matters of all sizes on his behalf.

Now his main job has become stamping. All matters big and small in the Integration Movement need his approval. Even the cafeteria's daily shopping list will be sent to his desk. After he stamps it, it will be sealed by a special person.

Because his work was much easier, he had more free time every day, but he still spent most of his time in the military camp. Sometimes, when he suddenly felt like it, he would go out to visit some of the better restaurants in the city, but when he was wandering around, he might suddenly receive a call to come back for stamping, which was quite annoying.

It is worth mentioning that two buffet restaurants in the city have temporarily stopped operating. As for the reason, General Claude of the Integration Movement said that it is not clear for the time being. However, according to people familiar with the matter, a yellow-haired Pero girl and a white-haired Liberian girl were seen in these restaurants.

And now Claude is stamping the military camp. After a professional engineering unit worked overnight, it only took a month to build a huge military camp that can accommodate tens of thousands of troops. The entire camp has strictly planned patrols day and night. After all, Claude is very clear about the methods of the old black snake. Although he has been repeatedly defeated by him, it is also because he has taken the initiative. Claude never underestimates the other party.

Next to his room was his staff department, where the staff were having a heated debate. The issue they were discussing was the next military expansion plan. After occupying Chernobyl, they already had enough troops to further expand their strength, but regarding the specific number of troops to be expanded and the scale of expansion of each branch of the military, the staff were still arguing. Claude did not participate in their discussion, but asked them to send the results to him after they discussed it, and then he would make the judgment.

After carefully reviewing a financial report for the logistics department's equipment purchases and making sure there were no problems, he stamped it with his seal and put it in a box next to the table. A special person would collect it later.

Feeling hungry in his stomach, he knew it was time for lunch. Now that his body had reached the third stage, his demand for food was very great, almost catching up with Xiaoke's appetite, so he basically ate in the cafeteria. After all, it was more convenient to get new food there, and there was no need for someone to deliver it to him time and time again.

"Today's food seems to include apple pie. I wonder which country this food is from. It sounds good..."

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Kriev looks like an ordinary Ursus, with a protruding belly that shows he doesn't exercise much, and a thick beard covering his neck. But his job is not easy, and he is even supervised by the Iron Guards because he is the general manager of all the soldiers' canteens in the Integration Movement.

In theory, those who hold this position are all members of the Reunion Movement who have been carefully vetted and can be trusted. However, because their generals also eat with the soldiers, the security level is raised a lot. Every time a meal is served, there will be the most elite soldiers of the Reunion Movement to monitor every process of their production.

Knowing the importance of his work, Kriev never dared to be negligent. He always did it himself. He also paid attention to every step in the process and tried his best to prevent anyone from tampering with it.

Today's food includes apple pie, which is said to be a very delicious dessert, and is very famous in Lateran, the country of Sakota. Kriev doesn't know how to make this kind of thing, but one of his chefs knows how to make it, and the other party joined the integration movement at the beginning of its development, and his identity is very innocent, so Kriev was relieved to let him be responsible for most of the production process.

But he still kept an eye on the other party, pretending to have a friendly conversation with him and staying close to him. He watched him direct his helpers to put the apple filling into the butter dough, and then put one baking tray after another into the huge oven to bake. During this process, he did not notice any small movements made by the other party.

Soon it was time to serve the food, and the piles of apple pies and other meats, vegetables, fruits and other foods were about to be served to the soldiers' tables, and hundreds of staff were about to take the food out.

"and many more."

Charles' voice made everyone stop and turn to look at the captain of the general's personal guard. I wonder what he is going to say?

Charles walked in front of them, holding the battle axe with a fan-like blade in his right hand. His heavy armor made him look like a tall tower made of steel. His head was covered by a fully enclosed helmet, and no expression could be seen. Only the reflective tactical eyepiece was staring straight at the chefs.

He lowered his head and carefully examined the apple pies on the table, picking out the one with the best golden brown and crispy crust, and then gently cut out a piece with a table knife.

"Eat this. It's my duty. I hope you understand."

The chef who made this batch of apple pies had an ugly look on his face. I don't know if he really had something to hide or if he was unhappy because he was suspected, but he did hesitate for a moment. And Charles silently clenched the battle axe in his hand.

"Okay, of course no problem."

The young chef reached out and took the fork from Charles' hand, then put the piece of apple pie in his mouth, chewing the sweet filling and crispy crust, and then swallowed it in front of everyone's eyes.

But Charles did not order people to continue delivering meals. Instead, he raised his hand to signal everyone to be patient and wait quietly. Several iron guards also began to surround them silently, and even light footsteps began to be heard on the ceiling. This was the alert crossbowmen being mobilized.

Time passed by minute by minute, until 1 minutes later, when the meal delivery time had expired by 1 minutes. Seeing that the chef's expression had not changed, Charles waved his hand, and the meal delivery staff began to get busy. They were already late, and if they didn't hurry up, it would affect the soldiers' afternoon training.

"It's my duty, please don't mind it."

Charles nodded slightly, turned around and took the plate in his hand. The general's food was personally checked by him and would be delivered personally. All the chefs stayed here temporarily under the supervision of the iron guards, and only one person breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Rise of the Reunion: Chapter 110: Cursed Serpent Venom

The soldiers lined up and talked and laughed as they entered the various canteens. In order to provide meals for tens of thousands of people, there were 18 canteens here, enough for every soldier to eat his own lunch during meal time and also have enough time to rest for a while.

When it was time to eat, all the soldiers sat in their seats neatly, waiting for the staff to distribute the food to them. Soon, the fragrant and steaming hot food was placed in front of them, making the hungry soldiers who had just experienced heavy physical training swallow their saliva.

Following the order, they quickly started to eat the food in front of them. As they were in good health, these soldiers ate with great appetites at an extremely fast speed. The food on the table was finished at an alarming speed. At this time, the apple pie that had been delayed for 20 minutes was finally served and placed in front of the soldiers.

Because they had to make room for the food delivery personnel, the soldiers were not in a hurry to start eating, but they were also very curious about this exotic delicacy, especially the wonderful sweet aroma of the food, which made them even more hungry. One minute after the apple pie was put down... suddenly! A sharp whistle sounded on the broadcast of all cafeterias.

All the soldiers stood up subconsciously, straightened their backs, and waited for the next order.

"All soldiers, evacuate the mess hall! Line up immediately at the nearest square."

After receiving the exact order, the non-commissioned officers began to loudly command the soldiers to enter the large force outside in the original formation as quickly as possible and finally arrive at the playground.

The soldiers were waiting quietly in the square formation on the playground. Many soldiers had already grasped their weapons. They didn't know what sudden situation had led to such an order, but they were all ready to fight.

At this moment, chaos was beginning to spread in the cafeteria where Claude and the cadres were.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Time went back to a few minutes ago. Charles brought Claude a browned apple pie with a hole in it. It had obviously been tested for poison, so Claude ate a lot of it without any doubt.

While he was talking to the cadres, Charles suddenly rushed in, threw the apple pie on the table away, then grabbed Claude and tried to drag him away.

"Char, what happened?"

Claude held the other's shoulder and calmed Charles down.

"General, one of the people who made this batch of apple pies just tried to escape, but when we caught him, he suddenly committed suicide. There is something wrong with this batch of food!!"

Claude frowned, and the cadres around him were even more horrified. Talulah immediately used the terminal to call the medical team, because Claude was the only one who ate the plate of apple pie just now. The consequences were too terrible, and the battle-hardened cadres were a little confused.

Claude raised his hand to stop the officers who wanted to take him to the medical department. He immediately took out his terminal and started broadcasting in all the cafeterias to issue orders.

"All soldiers, evacuate the mess hall! Line up immediately at the nearest square."

Then he turned his head and looked at Tallulah.

"All soldiers who have eaten this apple pie should be gathered together immediately and sent to Rhodes Island. Rhodes Island will provide the best medical facilities for diagnosis. Funding is not a problem."

Claude issued one command after another, and the cadres of the Reunion Movement were no longer confused and immediately began to carry out his orders.

At the same time, Claude was also checking what was wrong with that thing. He sank his consciousness into his body, looked at the food that was still in his stomach, and began to command the stomach to move. At the same time, he closed the pylorus and opened the cardia. Soon, the food with stomach acid came out of his mouth, and Yelena quickly brought a large amount of saline solution. He began to pour water into his stomach and began to wash his stomach.

After several times, Claude wiped the corner of his mouth to make sure there was no more foreign matter in his stomach. He stood up and looked at the food residue on the ground. From the outside, there was nothing wrong with it. In his spiritual perception, the residue did not reveal any flaws. He frowned, not believing that the enemy had made such a big mess just to scare him.

Suddenly!! He felt a rune somewhere on his armor light up. He looked down and saw that it was a very complex rune, like five snakes entangled with each other, giving people an evil feeling. Now the five carved snakes came to life, twisting, entangled, and intertwined with each other.

This is the Detection Defense Rune 3459, which has only one most prominent and significant function, which is to defend against curses and poisons. And now it has indeed been activated, which means that I have suffered some kind of curse.

Claude never wastes his life. When fighting the elves, the endless variety of magic and insidious strategies of the other side once made him very distressed. But when humans really began to pay attention to this aspect and concentrate resources on research, they were able to think of ways to deal with it quickly.

Under the Emperor's order, in 1002, the dwarves were officially classified as a type of human. Humans accepted these races whose homes were occupied by the elves and recognized them as part of the human race. The powerful rune technology of the dwarves was also fully accepted by humans. Nearly 5% of the masters of the Royal Alchemy Association were dwarves.

After combining the dwarves' powerful rune technology with humans' alchemy technology, people created a new discipline and began to promote the rapid development of the empire's weapons technology. The dwarves, who were sworn enemies of the elves, naturally had ways to deal with them, especially the elves' despicable curses and poisoning methods.

The detection defense rune 3459, also known as the Serpent's Bite, sounds like an ominous thing, but its greatest function is to absorb the power of the curse. It also has a certain resistance effect to those severe toxins and can delay the onset of toxins. As the lord of the legion, Claude naturally has such means.

Soon, the results of the soldiers' investigation were reported. Fortunately, due to Charles' obstruction, only a few dozen soldiers ate the apple pie, and the amount they ate was not much, and there has been no problem until now.

Feeling the pain starting to come from his lungs, Claude felt a little annoyed. He was still not careful enough. He should have thought that Black Snake must have planted people in the team when the Reunion Movement was first established. He should have cleaned it up carefully and then started this work.

Rise of the Reunion: Chapter 111 Raid

The panting chefs were brought to the square. In order to maintain the food supply for tens of thousands of people, there were nearly 200 chefs here. Now facing the gleaming swords and powerful crossbows, none of them was not worried, especially when they heard that the general had been assassinated and there might be accomplices of the murderer among them.

Kriev's face was frighteningly pale at this moment. He was the person in charge of all the chefs. If anything happened to the general, he would definitely be to blame. This short and fat chef was feeling very upset at this moment.

The soldiers' eyes were cold and frightening at the moment. They carefully looked at each chef, as if anyone could be a spy. The general had been sent to a medical institution for treatment, and their task was to eliminate the suspicion of the other chefs. After all, the other party could not know which one the general would eat, so they had to poison all the soldiers together.

It is not easy for one person to complete this task, so it is very likely that there are still remaining spies hidden among the chefs and assistants.

Yelena, or Frost Star, her hands were still shaking because of the intense fear just now. She didn't dare to imagine what would happen to them if Claude really died of the poison. She didn't dare to imagine the consequences, and her extreme fear of the consequences turned into intense anger at this moment.

Her anger was not visible on the surface, just like a glacier under the sea, which contained terrible power but only revealed disturbing shadows. Even the flying snow in Ursus stopped howling in her anger.

The chefs were brought out one by one, and then they would be thoroughly investigated, combing through every one of his interpersonal relationships, and all his correspondence records and daily behaviors would be examined most closely.

As the number of chefs in the middle of the playground decreased, the expressions of the remaining people became more and more uneasy. Even if they had a clear conscience, this situation did not make people feel safe, especially when the soldiers' encirclement was getting tighter and tighter.

Soon there were only three people left, including Kriev, the chef who was responsible for making all the apple pies, and a chef who was responsible for making soup.

"Okay, Kriev, you go first."

Yelena waved to him with no expression on her face, but Kriev could feel a cold chill surrounding him. He shivered involuntarily, then walked over dejectedly. He knew how much trouble he had caused this time.

…………

"Kriev, you were one of the first members to join us. You were already our chef when we were still struggling on the ice. I shouldn't have doubted you, but this incident was too bad. As the person in charge, you have an unshirkable responsibility for this."

"I understand, sir... I understand very well, General... How is he?"

Kriev bit his lips hard to prevent himself from fainting after hearing the terrible news.

"He is no longer in danger of death, and is still receiving treatment...Okay, answer my question. What were you doing before the meal was delivered? Tell me exactly where and when you were doing it."

Yelena bit her pale lips and finally told the old member the truth. In her heart, she was still unwilling to believe that this always cheerful chef was the murderer who poisoned Claude.

"I was watching Charles, the chef who made apple pies. He was a new chef we hired two months ago. Since it was a new food, I was a little worried and kept watching his movements, but I didn't notice any problems..."

"Where do you source all the raw materials from? Tell us the exact location."

"We bought the flour from the flour mill in the core city. We got a very cheap price because we bought in large quantities... As for the sugar, we bought it from the No. 233 Sugar Processing Plant in the Gray Shed Area. Their crispy candy is very famous in this city... As for the apples, we bought them from the No. 338 Module in the Planting Module. The person in charge there also gave us a cheap price..."

Kriev was familiar with all the links, and he personally supervised every link from procurement to production, so he spoke very fluently. Whenever he mentioned a location, an officer would immediately rush out of the camp with his team.
