In Terra, she is a hunter and a bad woman.

"What a scary guy..."

"Ah."

Theresis did not refute this. He was not the kind of person who would give in easily, but... he had to admit that in front of Maria, his determination was a little ridiculous.

After sighing a few times, he turned his head and looked at the woman.

"Do you know anything about the group of fanatics she just mentioned?"

"...I can probably guess, but I can't be sure."

The woman shook her head slightly, then sat aside.

She folded her hands and pressed them against her forehead.

After thinking carefully for a moment, he rubbed his eyebrows in annoyance.

"If... it's really what I'm thinking, then... we might need to speed up our plan."

……

By the time Maria returned to the Doctor, a little over ten minutes had passed.

The doctor also blinked when he saw Maria returned safely.

"Did the negotiation succeed?"

"Ah."

Maria nodded.

Although her conversation with Theresis was more like Maria using force to coerce others rather than a negotiation, at least the matter was settled.

In the next week, Maria will be able to mobilize many departments of the Kazdel Military Committee.

But it is probably unlikely for those core departments...but Maria doesn't need to get involved in those places.

Maria's investigation along the way also made her certain that these guys who believed in Godan were a group of crazy bandits with no proper identity... Such people are often easier to influence and control, but they are just entry-level pawns.

In the end, Godan still failed to discover how the rules called social order were used as tools.

After a brief analysis of the situation, Maria quickly took the doctor into action again.

The two men's first stop was the archives managed by the Military Commission.

Now that they have taken over the city, they have naturally sorted out many of its archives.

This naturally includes documents about any unusual events that have occurred recently.

These documents were obviously not specially organized and were piled together in a somewhat messy manner.

But fortunately, the two people here are good at reading. In just half a day, they found the anomaly with the right time...

"Recently, many soldiers have mysteriously disappeared in the military camp... Although some have raised questions about this, most of them were quickly covered up."

The doctor flipped through several files and suddenly frowned.

This matter is not big or small.

To put it simply, Kazdel itself is not a stable place. Occasionally, people disappear, which is normal and not worth making a fuss about.

But in a broader sense...

"There are disappearances in the military camp? Continuous? Small batches of disappearances?"

"This is quite unusual."

The doctor sorted it out and placed it in front of Maria.

Maria also walked over and took a few looks.

There were no problems found in her files.

Combined with the memories he had plundered from the minds of those believers.

"They only decided to come here a few weeks ago... and the last recorded disappearance in the military camp was exactly three weeks ago..."

Maria held up the file and looked at it for a few seconds.

After determining the time factor, it seems that this is the only problem that can truly be considered an abnormality.

"Do you know them?"

"……Do not."

Maria shook her head slightly and put the file down.

She was not very familiar with the Kazdel Military Council.

Although she was once the commander of the Sarkaz, that was in the past.

Today's Military Committee and the royal court troops that were once united have become two completely different groups.

Trying to apply old thinking to new things will not produce results.

To clarify the specific issues...

"Maybe we need to go over there and check it out."

Maria blinked and gave her own answer.

After nodding, the doctor paused for a long time before lowering his brows.

"Then...you go, I won't go."

"Ok?"

Maria tilted her head in confusion.

The doctor spread out his hands in a relaxed manner.

"You probably don't plan on going in the normal way, do you?... Wouldn't adding a useless burden like me at this time slow down your progress? If that's the case, then it's obviously better for you to go alone."

"……Yes."

Maria was silent for a few moments and then nodded.

This made the words that the doctor wanted to say stuck in his throat.

She looked at Maria helplessly and shook her head.

"Even though I know that's the case, I'm still a little hurt that you didn't refute it at all... But since you know, it's easy to explain. Honestly, I've missed a lot of opportunities because of you. While Li's protection really reassures me,... I'm not someone who can only be protected. I have my own abilities, and... compared to personal gains and losses, Godan's affairs are what we should truly devote all our energy to."

"So... leave me alone, Maria, and do it boldly!"

She smiled, raised her hands, and tried to show her strength to reassure Maria.

But unfortunately, even if the doctor is really a muscular man, it cannot change the image of a glass doll in Maria's eyes.

Facing the doctor's self-mockery, Maria shook her head slightly.

"I don't trust Tracy... He's the same. Once the two of us are separated, he might take action. So you have to come with me."

"As for the other aspects... I am capable of solving them."

Maria spoke, her attitude firm.

This made the doctor feel helpless.

But before she could say anything, Maria had already picked up her collar and was carrying her, ready to go.

And just when the doctor was trying to struggle.

She suddenly leaned close to the other person's ear and spoke softly.

"Besides...you are not as useless as you say."

"You are the one I trust..."

"PhD……"

Chapter 365: He is taller.

Maria's words were very calm, so calm that the doctor was a little stunned, wondering why she said this at this time.

But then she blushed at Maria's words.

"You are someone I can trust..."

Maria said this, her smooth tone flowing out directly.

The doctor didn't feel anything at first.

But as time passed, and she kept chewing over these words in her mind, a feeling of shyness kept coming to her heart.

The blood began to rush faster, and in just a few blinks of an eye, her skin was dyed a thorough red.

No!

Maria...

How could Maria say such a thing without batting an eyelid?!

Isn't this woman shy?!

The Doctor thought with a red face.

But when she saw Maria's calm expression, she couldn't help but curl her lips.

She suddenly felt that she was too easy to deal with.

Why would I be so uneasy because of what the other person said?

After quickly sorting out her emotions, she took a deep breath.

"I finally understand why so many people like you..."

The doctor complained.

"Ok?"

Maria turned her head, seeming a little confused.

But the doctor did not answer directly. Instead, he deliberately looked to the side and muttered softly.

"nothing."

……

After determining the target, Maria and the doctor found it without much effort.

It was almost evening at this time.

Flames gradually began to burn throughout the camp.

Perhaps because Tracy has decided to build this place into the main camp in the future, the camp here is not just a simple tent pitch. Maria and others can clearly see its internal planning and design.

The centerpiece is the renovated, small but extremely oppressive main camp.

There are guards guarding the edge, and only a few generals with extremely special attire can enter and exit.

Next to them is the simple but carefully arranged Royal Guards camp... They are relatively short and seem a bit out of place compared to the surroundings.

A little further out are the residences of ordinary soldiers... But even so, the distribution of these residences is extremely particular... According to different abilities, the guards and heavy-armored members are at the outermost layer, the middle layer is the Originium technicians, and at the end are the crossbowmen and some logistics.

Buildings like watchtowers are interspersed among them to ensure internal stability...but these watchtowers cannot be built on the side of the Royal Guards.

The difference in levels was clearly laid out before everyone.

“It’s quite strict.”

After the doctor complained silently, he widened his eyes again, trying to see all the details of the layout carefully.

But unfortunately, because the opponent's defense was too tight, and Maria had to distract herself to take care of the doctor, the two did not get too close, but observed their target from a slightly farther distance.

After all, the doctor is still a mortal and cannot achieve Maria's superhuman vision.

Therefore, we can only make inferences based on what we can see in brightly lit areas.

"At the moment, apart from the fact that the management seems a bit chaotic, there doesn't seem to be any problem?"

After looking at the camp for a while, the doctor tilted his head and showed a puzzled expression.

The layout of the entire camp is quite reasonable. If there is any problem, it is that there are not enough construction workers. The area has been divided, but the camp is only about half built.
