Reed placed the teacup heavily on the table, making a loud clanging sound!
“What’s the matter that made you, the Captain of the Royal Guards, so panicked?” The Union leader at the side raised the teacup and asked slowly.
Yerkes even slowly blew on the teacup, and only drank the tea after it had cooled down for a while.
“According to our intelligence, all the villages around the Undead Mountain Range have been massacred! Not a single living creature has been found!”
“What!” Yerkes exclaimed in shock. He did not even feel the boiling hot tea splashing on his body.
‘Undead Mountain Range? Isn’t that the place where Rabbit, Monkey, and Dragon went this time?’
Yerkes instantly connected the dots in his heart and immediately asked, “What exactly happened?”
At this time, the Captain of the Royal Guards, Reed, stood up unhurriedly, picked up his tea, and blew on it.
Seeing this, the leader couldn’t help but shout, “Hurry up and say it! It’s already so late!”
Reed also put down his teacup. “Are you anxious now? Aren’t you going to mock me?”
After saying that, Reed also said seriously, “I know that your guild’s people went to the Undead Mountain Range to do a quest!”
“And I just received news that all the creatures around the Undead Mountain Range have been controlled by someone!”
This sentence made the leader’s spirit jolt, and in the next moment, he couldn’t help but feel his scalp go numb. Even when Reed said that he knew that someone from the Adventurers’ Union went to the Undead Mountain Range, he subconsciously put it aside.
“Control? Are you sure?” The leader of the Adventurers’ Union said word by word: “You know what this means!”
Reed’s expression also became serious, and he quietly sat up straight. “Of course I know what this means!”
“Only a Puppeteer from a hundred years ago could be able to control someone!”
The leader of the Adventurers’ Union was also shocked!
Undead Mountain Range… Control… The person who died was suspected to be resurrected… These keywords gradually gathered together and formed a terrifying name!
Puppeteer!
“How is this possible! He was already exterminated by the Adventurers’ Union and the forces of the Imperial City 100 years ago!
How could he appear in front of the world now?!” Yerkes said in disbelief.
“Although this is hard to believe, it is the truth! The Puppeteer is very likely to be revived again!”
Reed, who was sitting across from him, stood up after saying that. “I just came to inform you that I want you to quickly find out whether this news is true or not!”
“Our Imperial City has to make preparations as soon as possible! If the Puppeteer really comes back from the dead, then the Imperial City will probably fall into another bloody storm!”
After saying that, Reed strode away, leaving Yerkes alone to digest this news!
“Has the Puppeteer returned?” the leader muttered silently.
…
Not long after, Yerkes came back to his senses. Since they could eliminate the Puppeteer a hundred years ago, then there was no reason they couldn’t do it again!
Yerkes thought fiercely in his heart.
“Men! Immediately convene an emergency meeting of the Union!”
“This time, it’s time for the survival of the Union!”
However, when Yerkes finished speaking, no one came to receive the order. Just as Yerkes was about to fly into a rage, the messenger ran over again.
“Reporting, leader! The three-man team of the 12 Zodiacs has come to report!”
“Report what? It’s time for the survival of the Union! Didn’t you hear me say that I’m going to convene an emergency meeting?”
Just as Leader Yerkes was about to give the messenger a good scolding, he suddenly reacted.
He grabbed the messenger’s shoulder and shook it. With a voice that almost broke the messenger’s ears, he roared, “What did you say? The three-man team from the 12 Zodiacs has returned?”
Usually, people from the 12 Zodiacs would not form a team to do missions. But now, the only team that formed a three-man team was the team codenamed Dragon, Monkey, and Rabbit!
And the destination of the three of them was the Undead Mountain Range!
The place where the Puppeteer was suspected to have resurrected!
“Quick, quick, quick! Quickly call the three of them in!”
Leader Yerkes said anxiously, “Forget it, it’s too slow! I’ll go ask them myself!”
He was very urgent at this moment! He was eager to know what had happened in the Undead Mountain Range!
Had the Puppeteer been resurrected!?
If the Puppeteer had been resurrected, how did the three of them return safely?
If it wasn’t the Puppeteer… Then this matter was even more terrifying than the Puppeteer’s resurrection! After all, the Puppeteer was an honest person in the Union. Although he was difficult to deal with! But it was still better than a person whose strength was comparable to the Puppeteer. Moreover, it was a person whose intelligence you didn’t know at all who had appeared in the Undead Mountain Range!
Just as Leader Yerkes was about to walk out and personally ask the three people of the 12 Zodiacs.
The coachman, who was also Leader Yerkes’ butler, came out.
“Commander Yerkes, why are you here?”
“En! Sali!” Commander Yerkes walked out and bumped into his old butler bringing Lugh and the other two back. Thus, he looked left and right and asked a question.
“Why are there only the three of you? Where is Monkey?”
Sali, who was the coachman, patted the sack on his shoulder and said, “This is Monkey!”
Then, he took the sack off his shoulder.
Commander Yerkes opened the sack with a puzzled look and saw Monkey inside!
At this moment, Monkey was still tied up by Lugh with a rope. His eyes were covered and his mouth was stuffed with an unknown black cloth. He looked quite miserable.
“What happened? How can you treat Monkey like this?”
Commander Yerkes could not understand the situation before him. He was confused by Monkey’s current situation!
“Isn’t Monkey your teammate? How can you treat him like this?”
“Could it be that Monkey had a conflict with Dragon, so he was taught a lesson?”
“And why didn’t you try to persuade them, Rabbit? After all, you are a team!”
Commander Yerkes spoke in a self-righteous manner. He was stunned by the scene in front of him. He did not even have the time to ask what exactly happened in the Undead Mountain Range…
Coachman Sali hurriedly said, “It’s a long story, Leader!”
But Captain Yerkes obviously did not have such good patience, so he quickly interrupted, “Then you can make it short!”
Coachman Sali nodded after hearing that, and immediately said, “Good! Then I’ll make it short!”
“To put it simply, Monkey has become the Puppeteer!”
“We were afraid that he would attack us when he woke up, so we tied him up!”
“…”
Captain Yerkes, who was on the side, was immediately stunned.
