Chapter 404: The Fish Have Taken The Bait

Seeing Yao Ran and Yuan Rihui place the unconscious man on the bed in one of the guest rooms, Long Yu asked, "What happened to him?"

"I gave him the potion to cure deformation," Yao Ran explained.

Understanding the situation, Long Yu didn't ask further.

Worried about the other two, Yuan Rihui said, "I will bring the others in. Miss Yao, please keep an eye on this one."

"Alright," Yao Ran replied.

Hearing there were still others left outside, Shi Xuan offered, "Brother Yuan, let me help you."

Yuan Rihui nodded gratefully. "Thank you."

While the two went to carry the other two space ability users, Yao Ran checked the unconscious man's deformed arm.

She saw the deformed flesh slowly sloughing off while new flesh grew and the bones straightened. After checking that everything was alright, she rolled down his sleeve and took out an electric heater from her space.

As she set up the electric heater, Shi Xuan and Yuan Rihui returned with the other two space ability users. Overcome by pain, all three space ability users were currently unconscious.

After laying the two men side by side on the bed, Yuan Rihui asked anxiously, "Miss Yao, will they be alright?"

Yao Ran examined the other two before replying, "Don't worry. They are in the recovery process. Fixing the deformation is painful, but once it's over, they will wake up soon."

Hearing this, Yuan Rihui let out a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness."

Sensing his worry, Long Yu patted his shoulder. "Let them rest here until they wake up. While you wait, how about you join us for a meal?"

"Alright," Yuan Rihui agreed after thinking about it.

While they waited for the three space ability users to regain consciousness, something unexpected happened in the Second Army's barrack.

Standing by his office window, Du Zhaoyi spoke into his satellite phone, "The fish have taken the bait. What do you want me to do next?"

"You can return to Shoudu City now," Gao Shuwei replied a second later.

Hearing this, Du Zhaoyi raised an eyebrow and asked, "And what about your beloved younger sister?"

Gao Shuwei's tone turned cold as he replied, "That is none of your business. I will send others to keep an eye on her. Just do as you're told."

Sensing his anger, Du Zhaoyi chuckled. "Fine, fine. Geez, you always get angry whenever I mention her."

Ignoring the teasing, Gao Shuwei coldly ordered, "Leave today."

Before Du Zhaoyi could say more, the call abruptly ended. Looking at the satellite phone, Du Zhaoyi clicked his tongue and complained, "Tsk, what an impatient man."

Putting the satellite phone away, he called out, "Someone, come in."

Seeing their excitement, Yuan Rihui reminded them, "Alright, now that you have recovered, make sure to work hard for the team."

The three quickly nodded, then turned to Yao Ran and said in unison, "Thank you, Miss Yao. We will work even harder from now on."

Yao Ran smiled at their words and said, "Good. Since you are awake, have something to eat before delivering the supplies to our clients."

"Yes, Miss Yao," they replied.

As they followed Yao Ran and the others to the dining room, news of Du Zhaoyi's secret departure began to spread throughout the base. The soldiers were shocked and couldn't believe the news, but the empty warehouse and armory were undeniable.

Soldiers had gathered in the indoor training hall of the Second Army's barracks. As they stood in line, their gazes often drifted toward Li Tianyu, who stood quietly on the side.

After waiting for over half an hour, the training hall's door finally opened. The soldiers turned around and saw Xu Qipeng entering with Xu Ruihan.

Taking his place on the podium, Xu Qipeng looked at the soldiers and calmly said, "Commander Du secretly left the base last night and took all the supplies, weapons, and ammunition with him."

When his words fell, the soldiers' expressions darkened. Though they were angry and felt betrayed, no one spoke or moved.

After a moment of silence, Xu Qipeng continued, "More than 5.000 soldiers followed Du Zhaoyi last night, including 20 captains from various divisions of the Second Army."

At these words, the soldiers glanced at Li Tianyu and the four remaining captains. From a total of twenty-five captains, only five had stayed behind.

Seeing their somber faces, Xu Qipeng announced, "From this point forward, the First and Second Armies will merge into one, and the Juncheng Military Army will cease to exist."
