Then, the old man pointed in a particular direction to Dali and Sifusco.
Then, Dali and Sifusco walked in the direction that the old man had pointed.
When Dali and Sifusco came to the residential street in Lecter City, they found that all the houses there were closed.
“It seems that we have come at a bad time!”
Dali exclaimed to Sifusco.
When Sifusco heard Dali’s words, he looked up at the sky and said to Dali with a smile.
“Let’s wait a little longer. The sky is going to darken soon!”
Dali nodded and the two of them walked away.
…
As night fell, the residential street in Lecter City was peaceful.
At the moment, every house was brightly lit.
Dali and Sifusco were crouching at the end of the residential street, as they observed everything around them.
“How long has it been? Why can’t we see anyone?”
Dali said angrily.
“Could it be that the old man lied to us? F*ck!”
Dali continued to curse.
When Sifusco heard Dali’s words, he also felt a little helpless.
However, he still said to Dali, “I think we should wait and see! Perhaps someone might appear in a while?”
Just then, a group of people wearing black night suits walked out of a secret building.
When Sifusco saw this scene, he immediately notified Dali who was still cursing.
Dali immediately became quiet when he noticed them.
Dali counted the number of people. There were exactly twenty people.
“It looks like these guys are the ones!
“Sifusco, follow me!”
Dali said.
Sifusco nodded in seriousness and followed in Dali’s footsteps towards the group of men in black.
“Have you found everything out? Have you confirmed their location?”
“I’ve figured every out! Don’t worry, nothing will go wrong!”
“We’ve been hiding here for so long, just waiting for this day. This operation cannot fail! Do you understand?”
“Of course!”
Dali and Sifusco followed behind the group of men in black, silently listening to their conversation.
After Dali heard what the man in black had said, he spoke to Sifusco in a low voice.
“It looks like this group of men in black is the assassination army sent by the Empire!”
Sifusco nodded, then spoke to Dali as well.
“Captain Dali, what should we do now?”
Dali quickly thought about it and said to Sifusco.
“Let’s follow them and see where they are going!”
“Okay!” Sifusco agreed.
The two of them followed the men in black around the city, finally arriving at the mansion where Rowe and Romon were residing in Lecter City.
When these two noticed their route, their judgment of these men in black, deepened.
Suddenly, one of the men in black spoke up.
“Who are you? Why have you followed us for so long? Are you guys coward?”
When Dali heard the words of the man in black, he smiled. Then he walked out and spoke to the man in black.
“Of course, I’m your ‘grandfather’, you bunch of lackeys of the Empire’s assassination army! Prepare to die!”
When the black-robed man heard Dali’s words, he smiled and removed the bamboo hat that was on his head.
He walked towards Dali confidently.
“So, it’s Regiment Commander Dali. I think there’s been some misunderstanding between us!”
Dali saw that person was still approaching him.
Then, under the faint moonlight, he finally saw the person’s face clearly.
“Higgis? Why are you here? You said that there was a misunderstanding? What is this misunderstanding?”
It turned out that this black-clothed man named Higgis was a general under Sano of the Empire.
He had done a lot of meritorious deeds for Sano and the Empire.
When Higgis heard Dali’s questions, he smiled and said, “Commander Dali, I think that without the help of the information I provided, your Lieluo Army wouldn’t have been able to obtain the victory that you have today!”
“With the strength of the Nameless Army from two months ago, it seems that you are completely unable to contend against the current Stone Tablet Army of the Empire!”
Dali and Sifusco looked at Higgis in shock.
Sifusco instantly reacted and asked, “Are you the friend who revealed the information about the Empire to City Lord Lecter?”
When Higgis heard this, he smiled as he replied.
“As expected of the person who walked out of the Broken Cliff Mountain alive. Sifusco, your brain is indeed more intelligent than Commander Dali’s! Hahahaha!”
Seeing that Hitchis was laughing at him, Dali asked, “Higgis, what is your purpose here?”
Hitchis smilingly replied, “We came here to join the Lieluo Army!”
“Join the Lieluo Army?” Dali asked in confusion. He then looked at Higgis in disbelief, before asking again.
“Then, what do you mean by the operation that you mentioned just now?”
Higgis took a look around before replying to Dali.
“It’s too dangerous here! You’d better follow me in!”
Higgis then easily entered the residence of Rowe and Romon.
Soon, the group arrived at the room of Rowe and Romon.
At the moment, Rowe and Romon were still awake.
When the two leaders saw the group of people led by Higgis, as well as Dali and Sifusco who were following just behind them, the atmosphere seemed to have gotten tense.
In Romon’s heart, Higgis was a true supporter of the whole Empire.
This plan at the northern front had been exactly what Higgis had proposed.
“Higgis! Why have you come here? Are you here to take our lives?” Asked Rowe as he glared at Higgis.
Higgis looked at Rowe who was addressing him, then pleasantly replied, “Sir Leader, it seems that there has been some misunderstanding!”
Romon asked, “What are you here for exactly?”
Hitchis confidently replied, “Of course I’m here to join the Lieluo Army!”
