Chapter 824 438: Orchestrated Collaboration to Drive Out the Wolf and Swallow the Tiger
"What! It was stolen?" Elena's voice was loud, her expression full of anger, and her hands holding the list trembled slightly.
"Some parts were delivered, but..." The voice of this resistance member also lowered considerably, and it was obvious to anyone that she was really upset.
"Who did it, who did it?" Elena, like an enraged lioness, bared her teeth, causing fear among the crowd.
"Could it have been that mysterious man calling himself Mr. Gu?" A high-ranking member of the resistance hesitated and said.
The reason for saying this was naturally because they were speculating from their own perspective, as this batch of resources was evidently extremely valuable from the list.
If they got their hands on it and sold it off, they would surely profit massively.
Elena gave that senior member a cold look: "What good would it do him to do this?"
If he really wanted to be greedy, why take such a big risk? Wouldn't it be better to just not send the supplies over at all, rather than put on this act?
"It... it was the Sun Tribe people who did it, that Sun King personally led the raid, preliminary... preliminary suspicions..." stammered the resistance member.
"Preliminary suspicions of what? Speak up!" Elena's temper flared as well.
"Someone from within leaked the route, the people arranged by Mr. Gu said they only knew about it just before coming. " The resistance member also said with difficulty.
The implication was clearly that Mr. Gu indirectly pointed out there was a problem internally.
Because the route had already been informed to the high ranks of the resistance the day before, given the magnitude of these supplies, particularly as they included Ghost Energy Weapons, certainly needed to be well prepared.
"What? He's slandering us; how could we possibly betray... our comrades." A resistance member immediately reacted, speaking excitedly, but his voice gradually dropped under Elena's murderous intent.
"And what about Mr. Gu, is he alright?" Elena remained relatively rational, her first concern being their major benefactor.
"He was seriously injured and has been sent back for treatment ahead of time, not following to the camp." The resistance member's face was bitter, this time, their major benefactor got into such a state.
"I understand, when he comes next time, we'll have to give him a proper inquiry." Elena's expression also softened, as for whether there would be a next time, that remained to be seen.
She then scanned her gaze over the high-ranking members, she had suspected something was wrong with Fosa's capture from the beginning, now it seemed, there was indeed someone within the Moon Star Resistance Army colluding with external enemies.
And they were not only colluding with the Ascension Empire but also with the Sun Tribe.
No wonder the Sun Tribe's lifestyle had been getting better recently, someone was directly selling Moon Star Resistance's supplies at high prices to them, it's no surprise they were doing well.
"If this matter isn't handled well, Mr. Gu might not come again, think about the consequences yourselves, by today, find out the reason, otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless." Knowing from Mr. Gu's cautiousness, he might just drop out completely.
Even if he continues to support, it won't be with such intensity, let alone coming personally.
If they truly absorbed this batch of weapons and resources, the base and strength of the Moon Star Resistance would surely be elevated, risking life to send them to you, and yet, such a thing happened, whoever it would be, they'd be disappointed.
All the high-ranking members' foreheads were drenched with cold sweat, none dared to speak, especially those who initially conspired to imprison Fosa, internally cursing who had been so blind as to dare be greedy.
"Leader, it might be too late for today." A high-ranking member of the resistance swallowed and glanced at the sky; it was already dusk, meaning that in this meeting, the betrayer had to be found, so difficult a task.
"Why would it be too late? Are you rushing to become a slave for Didor?" Elena didn't care what the other was thinking, at this point, if you dared bring this up, who else could she use for an example?
"I... I'm not, I'm not!" The person hastily explained, but at this point, explanations didn't matter.
"Think carefully about how to clear yourself of suspicion." Elena didn't pay much attention, meaning if you couldn't provide a reasonable explanation, then you would be made an example.
She naturally knew, they would surely not catch anyone this time, if there were any clues, Elena would have been aware long ago.
The atmosphere was extremely stifling, no one dared to say anything.
"Leader, the inventory is complete, here is the list." A member of the resistance broke the silence of the meeting and handed over a list.
"Alright, go ahead." Elena didn't make things difficult for this person, as they knew nothing, venting on a foot soldier would be pointless.
Looking at the inventoried list against the original list, Elena's heart bled, only nearly a tenth had been recovered, even though a tenth, it's still quite a resource.
Fortunately, at that time, Didor, considering a certain threat, raided in a rush, otherwise, there wouldn't have been any remnants.
Especially the Ghost Energy Weapons on the list, if the Sun Tribe successfully equipped them, it would pose a great threat to the Moon Star Resistance Army.
At this moment, she also realized, it didn't seem fit to search for spies now, but rather to catch the Sun Tribe off guard before they fully absorb these resources and learn to use various weapons.
