Chapter 270: Prince Ashby’s Token



“Who is this?”

Chuck Campbell glanced at Cornelia, his brow furrowed. His goal on this trip was Cecelia and Phyllis, so he had specifically looked at their photos beforehand but didn’t recognize Cornelia!

Cornelia said, “I’m Sean’s aunt!”

“Aunt?”

Chuck Campbell’s brow furrowed even more. As far as he knew, Sean didn’t seem to have an aunt like Cornelia!

Moreover!

Judging by Cornelia’s age, it would be more believable if she were Sean’s sister!

Aunt…

Wasn’t she a bit too young for that?

“What’s it to you?”

“Is there a problem?”

Cornelia’s face was full of impatience, and she snorted, “What have you done to Sean?”

“Coming to Hilshire!”

“What is your purpose?”

Bang!

As soon as Cornelia’s words fell, the door to the conference room was suddenly pushed open, and the remaining eleven retired members of Bloody Wolf Group, along with Mr. Brain, all rushed into the conference room like a pack of wolves. Without a word, they surrounded Chuck Campbell and his companions!

“What’s going on?”

Mr. Brain came to Cecelia and Cornelia’s side and asked, “Is there news about Mr. Mason?”

Cecelia covered her face with tears, not speaking!

Cornelia handed Chuck Campbell’s phone to Mr. Brain. After watching the video, Mr. Brain’s already cold face instantly became incredibly solemn. He turned to look at Chuck Campbell and asked in a deep voice, “You… killed Mr. Mason?”

Killed!

Although the video didn’t show the outcome of the battle between Sean and Fergus Archer, the situation was clear. If nothing unexpected happened, Sean’s chances were slim!

Boom!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Upon hearing the word “killed,” the hearts of all Bloody Wolf Group members trembled violently, and the dark energy inside their bodies seemed to spiral out of control, breaking free from their bodies!

In an instant, the atmosphere in the entire conference room became extremely intense!

Suffocating!

A great battle was about to erupt!

Facing Chuck Campbell and the others, there were four Complete Stage individuals and one at the mid-level of dark energy. Even if all the retired members of the Bloody Wolf Group had gathered, along with Mr. Brain, they still didn’t have a surefire chance of winning! But at least they could ensure the safe evacuation of Cecelia and Cornelia! However, they didn’t plan to run at all! As long as they confirmed Sean’s death from Chuck Campbell and the others, none of them would be allowed to leave! No one would leave the Moore Group alive!

The four Complete Stage elders standing beside Chuck Campbell were wary, quietly channeling their dark energy, ready for battle. Chuck Campbell’s gaze swept over the retired members of the Bloody Wolf Group, his face still maintaining a calm smile. He shook his head and said, “Please, hold back your thunderous anger and let me finish speaking… We, like you, are friends of Mr. Mason! We have come at the behest of Prince Ashby!”

With that, Chuck Campbell produced a palm-sized, golden token intricately engraved with dragons and phoenixes along the edge. The patterns were engraved on one side of the token. It was Prince Ashby’s command, representing the authority of Prince Ashby. Apart from the Padishah’s own command, it was the most powerful token in the entire nation.

Holding the token, Chuck Campbell said, “You all must be the northern generals under Mr. Mason’s command, right?” He then swept the token around, indicating, “Seeing this token is as if you were seeing Prince Ashby himself!” Obedience was a soldier’s duty, and orders were absolute in the military. Thus, Chuck Campbell brought out Prince Ashby’s command, hoping to suppress the almost out-of-control retired members of the Bloody Wolf Group.

However, to Chuck Campbell’s astonishment, just as his words fell, Ear Wolf suddenly slapped the token from his hand, causing it to fall to the floor. “Prince Ashby my ass!” Ear Wolf angrily said, “I don’t care what kind of damned token you have, answer Mr. Brain’s question! What did you do to General Wolf?”

Chuck Campbell was a mid-level dark energy user, while Ear Wolf was only at the early stage. Logically, even if Ear Wolf attacked suddenly, Chuck shouldn’t have been unable to avoid it. The problem was that token was Prince Ashby’s command! Chuck Campbell had greatly underestimated the bond of life and death between the retired members of the Bloody Wolf Group and Sean, as well as their courage and bloodlust. They didn’t even care about Prince Ashby’s command, casually striking it away! This was something Chuck Campbell had never expected! He had been too careless!

“How dare you!” The Complete Stage elder beside Chuck Campbell was angered and instinctively wanted to attack Ear Wolf, but Chuck stopped him, saying, “It’s fine. They have followed Mr. Mason through life and death, battled on the battlefield, and defended their country. They are all men of iron and blood! I understand! I think even Prince Ashby wouldn’t blame them if he knew!”

After saying this, Chuck Campbell bent down to pick up the token. As he did so, a cold flash of anger passed through his eyes, thinking: Just wait! When we return to the capital, you’ll pay the price for this!

Before confirming Sean’s whereabouts, Chuck Campbell didn’t want to, nor dared to, cause too much trouble in Hilshire. If Sean were to learn of it and rush over, they might not be able to return to the capital alive! So, he had to endure it!

After standing up, Chuck Campbell put away Prince Ashby’s command and continued, “Don’t worry, Mr. Mason is not dead! He’s still alive! However… after the battle at Hill Riverside cliff, Mr. Mason was gravely injured and unconscious. He was taken back to the palace by Prince Ashby and is currently recuperating there!”

Chuck Campbell lied. This was a strategy he had thought of before coming. As long as he could deceive Cecelia and Phyllis into going to the capital, that would be enough!

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned. Sean was still alive! This was the answer they wanted to hear the most!Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

However!

They naturally wouldn’t easily believe Chuck Campbell’s words. Mr. Brain asked first, “You have no proof. How can we trust you?”

“Unless!”

“You can produce evidence of Mr. Mason being seriously injured and unconscious!”

“Or!”

“You can make a video call to Prince Ashby in front of us now, and let us see Mr. Mason with our own eyes!”

The previous video only proved that Sean had encountered a fierce battle!

Full of danger!

However!

It couldn’t prove that Sean, as Chuck Campbell said, was currently recovering from his injuries in Prince Ashby’s Eastern Palace!

“I have said all I can!”

Chuck Campbell had no intention of explaining, nor could he explain, because he was lying and couldn’t produce any so-called evidence. So, he shook his head and said, “Believe it or not, it’s up to you!”

“Mr. Mason’s condition is not very optimistic. When he will wake up, or even if he can wake up, is unknown. The doctor said that if his close relatives are with him, it may help his recovery…”

“So!”

“We hurried to Hilshire, hoping that Miss Moore and Mr. Mason’s daughter could accompany us to the capital and take care of Mr. Mason personally!”

“This afternoon!”

“We will return to the capital. If Miss Moore doesn’t trust us, doesn’t want to go, or is afraid to go, she can stay!”

Having said that!

Chuck Campbell took back his phone, told Cecelia his phone number, and turned to leave!

However!

Ear Wolf and the others still blocked their way, showing no intention of letting them pass!
