Chapter 1188 607: There Are Still More Good People in the World (Part 2)
The White Country Restoration Front, originally entrenched in the mountainous region and gradually growing, now found itself tainted with misfortune, bombed nine times in three days, hiding in fear without daring to show themselves, even facing internal division.
Amidst this critical moment, the Empire's envoy finally arrived.
They specifically requested a meeting with the leader of the White Country Restoration Front, the last offspring of the former Old King.
As a result, ten minutes after entering the meeting room, he was captured, skinned, and died bleeding.
Even the body and skin were hung on the wall!
In the Empire's telescope, they swayed with the wind.
This direct expression showcased the Restoration Front's stance, severing the last shred of possible negotiations.
Because of this, the already dividing Restoration Front saw internal conflicts ignited once again.
If not for a few highly respected old ministers who previously aided the Old Lord forcefully suppressing the situation, there might have been direct combat, leaving everyone restless and unable to stabilize.
In this era, those committed to restoration, fighting to the death without regrets, are truly rare; more often, people are dragged up the hill, or initially vacillating, entertaining thoughts of jumping ship, these opportunists. Counting on such a terror organization for any cohesion is absurd; isn't everyone like Nirvana?
And at this moment of crisis, the old ministers, backbone of the Restoration Front, disregarded consequences, stormed into the Young Lord's residence, profoundly advising him.
Abdullah bluntly questioned: "Young Lord, have you forgotten the ancestors' aspirations?"
Even amid his fury, the Young Lord solemnly replied:
"Never for a moment!"
"Then tell me, what exactly has Shekri intoxicated you with?!
Abdullah glared, almost interrogating: "Our urgent matter is the grand restoration plan. Before welcoming back the remains of the former king, no matter how bizarre the Empire's demands, just deal with them, might as well hand over Shekri, why needlessly provoke the Empire?"
"The Empire says we have a Fusion Bomb."
The Young Lord merely said this sentence, plunging the room into sudden silence where even Abdullah, traditionally a dove, laughed in anger, speechless.
What else can be said?
Same groove, here we go again?!
Who would believe that!
This excuse was used decades ago; it's been years, they don't even bother to change it!
The Old Lord, the previous tragic White King, endured in submission for half his life under both sides' oppression, wasn't he ultimately forced into desperation like this!!!
Now, everyone fell silent with nothing more to say.
To accuse unjustly, what need for words?
Even Abdullah, initially thoroughly repulsive and disdainful towards someone like Shekri, changed his previous cold demeanor, sending healing drugs.
"Shekri, rest assured to recover, previously it was all a misunderstanding."
As a result, Shekri himself was dumbfounded.
"Ah? Really, is it..."
No matter, the White Country Restoration Front had no room left for submission or retreat.
If not, what else?
Steal a Fusion Bomb from somewhere for the Empire?
Believe it or not, really handing it over confirms their accusation of possessing weapons of mass destruction?
Shekri sneaking to steal your Fusion Bomb, pure nonsense!
Within the Restoration Front, no one believes it's real.
Just like neither the Federation nor the Empire doubts it's fake.
In a certain sense, this is called reputation!
The theft of the Fusion Bomb is merely a fuse, triggering the irreconcilable hatred and conflict between the White Country Restoration Front and the puppet government fostered by the Empire and the Federation. Besides, even without the Fusion Bomb, Shekri coordinating with so many demons lurking in Tower City aiming for team building is an undeniable fact.
With the Restoration Front's unwavering stance and accusations, publicly executed batches of prisoners from the Empire and Federation with a declaration following… a brutal counterterrorism war already became inevitable between both sides.
Unless the Restoration Front is thoroughly eradicated from White Country's land, unless Shekri is exposed in the wilderness and the Fusion Bomb is reclaimed, the Empire's lost dignity and authority cannot be restored.
And the Empire and Federation's security and stability cannot be assured.
Under the looming shadow of an impending counterterrorism war, the grand Wolf Hunt operation had long begun!
Under the bounties from the Federation, Empire, and Desert Market, nearly every Chosen One joined the Wolf Hunt operation.
Compared to the bleak surface of Tower City, underneath, it was already bustling.
In the city where numerous commercial streets were empty, related industries had already gorged themselves, dripping with oil.
Without any warning or preparation, catching everyone off guard, the unexpected windfall period suddenly descended upon them!
Even Ji Jue himself, as the largest beneficiary, was entirely caught off guard!
Within the Security Bureau's outpost, Ji Jue had just finished cooperating with questioning.
Not only him, nearly everyone with stature and still alive was mandatorily interviewed to ensure innocence and no suspicion.
When coming to Ji Jue, it was purely a procedural routine.
After all, someone as pure and righteous as Ji Jue, rare to the point of ludicrousness in Central Earth, akin to black and white pandas, if questioned, they'd only ask about the shot he fired last night.
With connections to the An Family, Ji Jue selling cover was entirely justifiable.
Moreover, he too had claimed bounties, openly searching for Wolves to conduct research!
