Counterfeit Hero

Chapter 290: Updated: Volume 4, Chapter 47 Hunter Corps_3

The intertwining of the three forces makes it impossible for anyone to easily concede. Calming the chaos and bringing Gazalin back under a single powerful voice in a short time is nothing short of wishful thinking.

Stephen stood by the window, unable to figure out how the seemingly foolproof plan had devolved into the current situation.

Bruce, how did he fail?

”Reinhardt, there’s something I need to confirm. The rumors about you and James... are they true?” Concannon lifted his coffee, observing his old school friend with a sidelong glance.

If there’s anyone in the world qualified to ask Reinhardt about his private origins, it is only Concannon at this moment. He was Reinhardt’s best friend during his studies in the Desic Empire and the only son of Prince Claudin, the special envoy of the Desic Empire. At this critical juncture, he was the one who could offer the most help to Reinhardt.

Reinhardt laughed heartily, standing from the sofa and walking towards the desk, ”I don’t think this matter is worth your attention... I also don’t think you would believe such an absurd rumor...”

Concannon lifted his eyes, smiled slightly, and set down his coffee cup, ”I hope you don’t mind my rudeness. I don’t wish to get involved in domestic affairs, but if you could distance yourself from the Morton family, that would be best for everyone.” He adjusted his white shirt cuffs and continued, ”For His Majesty, James is an old friend. As for me, I only hope that the next Emperor of Gazalin is merely my good friend.”

Reinhardt smiled and nodded, ”I can guarantee that.”

Concannon said, ”Then I can also guarantee that before the Desic Empire agrees, Liebgoet and the Naga Federation can only watch this civil war from the sidelines! If the Western Alliance has any proposals, we’ll surely choose you as James’s successor.”

The two smiled knowingly at each other. Concannon said, ”According to your commander’s report, James’s death should be confirmed, but I received orders from Frank’s Majesty to find James at all costs, dead or alive. Ensure he doesn’t fall into the hands of the Leray Federation.”

”What Federation agents? Just a bunch of people driven underground by the Mythical Army.” Reinhardt said casually, ”But the mention of that escapee is indeed interesting; even I was deceived by him! Perhaps he will deceive others too...”

Speaking of the Fatty named Zhang Yuan, Reinhardt’s face turned sour. He activated the SkyNet Information System and said to Concannon, ”At 7:40, the SkyNet System showed markings of the highest authority. Since our level isn’t enough, we couldn’t track the usage or location of the highest authority. However, in Osullivan’s report, by around 7:10, James had been confirmed dead.”

Reinhardt forced a smile, ”Perhaps someone acquired the highest authority and escaped unscathed, or maybe Osullivan was also deceived. Now my army is engaged at the junction of the Central and Southern Districts, unable to conduct a wide-scale search. I believe your Mecha troops can bring some surprises. After all, the technological level of the Desic Empire far surpasses Gazalin.”

Concannon raised his eyebrows confidently, ”Speaking of Mecha tracking, Desic’s Hunter Corps may not be the best in the world, but they definitely rank in the top three. We can’t directly intervene in your civil war, but we can help you obtain useful things like the highest authority. Perhaps right now, the Hunters have already caught their prey!”

”Damn it! Is it ever going to end?” Tian Xingjian looked at the dense mass of Mechas on the radar, feeling a wave of dizziness.

Bonnie, beside him, stared at the long-range viewer showing these Mechas she had never seen before, momentarily shocked. Before she could react, her mouth was taped shut by Fatty.

”Rare to hear you laugh. Shut up, let’s have some peace!” the jerk said angrily.
