Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 146

Marin grew stern and left the camp of the commander with Deputy Commander Chen trailing behind. The other squad leaders followed her, curious to see how this would go.

She saw the spirit manipulators of the sixth squad after she exited the camp. They were standing not too far away, perspiring and panting. They all looked unsettled and covered in dirt, as if they had been caught off guard by a sneak attack. She frowned at this scene. Naturally, she believed that the sixth squad had run into some kind of situation and the mission had failed. She walked towards them briskly with this assumption in mind.

The spirit manipulators of the sixth squad, led by Thor and Joss, greeted Marin with great respect, even though they were still trying to catch their breaths. "Greetings! Commander!"

"Where is your squad leader?" Marin asked harshly as Rocky was nowhere to be seen. She stared with disdain at the spirit manipulators of the sixth squad.

"Commander..." Just as Thor was about to report the situation, a voice brimming with scorn rang out. "There is no need to ask! Psh! Their mission has obviously failed, so their squad leader deserted for fear of being held accountable! What a useless bunch!" It was Evan, who was clearly trying to add more fuel to the situation.

The other squad leaders echoed Evan's comments. They started to discuss among themselves, standing pompously in front of the sixth squad.

Many soldiers and spirit manipulators also pointed at the members of the sixth squad and laughed at them. They all thought that the men of the sixth squad were all out of luck when the position of their leader got assigned to Rocky.

"Nonsense! Our squad leader is a hero! Fine, let me show you what we have here!" Thor was infuriated by these words of humiliation and shouted. He could not stand Rocky being defamed by these men for a second more, so he immediately waved at the other spirit-manipulators in their squad.

His companions immediately lifted the Three Powers at the Gehenna Border, who had been all tied up, and threw them on the ground in front of everyone.

They looked afraid instantly when they saw Marin, knowing fully well that this might well be the end of their lives. They kneeled right away and cried ceaselessly. Had not their mouths been gaged, they would have begged for her mercy.

"It's them!" Marin looked very surprised as she saw these three men had been captured alive by the sixth squad. She then gave Deputy Commander a look.

He immediately checked the three men kneeling on the ground, also looking shocked. "They are the Three Powers at the Gehenna Border! They are the spirit manipulator robbers who have been very active in the precinct of the northeast military camp. They often attack convoys and towns. Although they are not very strong, they are sneaky and cautious. All of them are wanted fugitives and we have sent squads of spirit manipulators to apprehend them but no avail. How on earth! I find it hard to believe that they were captured by the sixth squad."

Apparently, even Deputy Commander Chen could not believe that the prisoners crawling on the ground in front of him were the wanted fugitives of the northeast military camp.

Other squad leaders including Evan also recognized these wanted men and looked shocked. They did not understand how the sixth squad managed to catch these sneaky robbers as three of the other five squads had participated in the manhunt but had not come even close. No one would have thought that the weakest sixth squad would be able to bag these wanted men. Anyone who said they were not surprised would be lying.
