If the lair is within the kingdom’s borders, I’ll mobilize the garrison to directly eradicate it.
If the stronghold is abroad, let the Fallen Angel Squad take action!"
Hudson said domineeringly.
The persistence of the cult organizations is not only due to entrenched classes but also because powerful forces support them behind the scenes.
Cult organizations rarely stir up trouble on Hudson’s territory. It’s not because they are timid but because their backers fear causing trouble.
Just the thought of cross-border law enforcent intimidates many.
Theoretically, in peaceful tis, Hudson can only command the troops within his jurisdiction and has no authority over the national army.
However, Master Hudson’s influence is so great that, even without authorization, everyone is still willing to comply.
Eradicating cult organizations isn’t against the rules. Regional garrison commanders and local noble lords will all give him this respect.
The procedures that should be followed are skipped here, giving them no ti to react.
If the cult is supported by internal forces within the kingdom, it’s even more tragic; they might be besieged by their own people.
There’s no way around it; such matters cannot be exposed to the light. Only the highest levels of the various clans know about it, the other mbers have no clue.
By the ti they receive the news, the siege operation has already begun.
At that point, there’s no ti to erase connections. Who dares to risk the world’s wrath to save cult mbers!
Hudson is no exception; if his hidden forces are eliminated, he will pretend nothing happened.
"Rest assured, Marshal, we will team up with the July Club and uncover the masterminds in the shortest ti possible!"
Michel imdiately assured.
Searching for cult organizations still requires professionals.
The July Club never engages in cult activities, but politically, they are the largest cult organizations, recognized by the underground world.
By normal standards, the July Club’s heretical ideas an they could never be tolerated by the kingdom.
But Hudson is an exception; the ideas others fear like a tiger, he can face with calmness.
Directly incorporating them poses too much political risk, but cooperating secretly is fine.
...
Southeastern Province.
Upon receiving news of the uncovering of ancient ruins, Governor Piers rushed to the scene without delay.
Looking at the damaged palace before him, he could tell from the architectural traces that it was not a product of this era.
"Earl, a mural has been found inside!"
Hearing the guard’s voice, Governor Piers cautiously walked towards the inner hall.
Excavating ancient ruins carries risks; normal dilapidated palaces are fine, but sealed creatures can be worrying.
"The mural is deteriorating, quickly record the inscriptions and patterns on it!"
As soon as Earl Piers spoke, a noble overseeing the excavation handed over a mory Stone.
As professional excavators of ancient ruins, they wouldn’t make such a rookie mistake.
"Earl, from the structural analysis, there are significant traces of Orc culture.
Initial judgnt suggests it dates back eight thousand years or more.
The text and patterns are full of Orc flair, likely left by an important figure of the Orc Empire.
These materials are crucial for our study of Orc Empire history and culture, though unfortunately, there’s a lack of docunted records!"
The old man said with a hint of excitent.
The Alpha Kingdom and Orcs are mortal enemies, but that doesn’t stop people from studying Orc culture.
Anyway, Orcs are ant to be eliminated physically; preserving this cultural heritage won’t affect the kingdom’s rule.
"Arrange for the mural’s content to be decrypted as soon as possible, and make several copies of the mory Stone for .
Continue organizing personnel to excavate the ruins, and be careful of any magic fluctuations. Avoid touching unknown Magic Formations."
Earl Piers advised with slight disappointnt.
Originally hoping for a significant yield, it now seed to be just an ordinary palace.
Researching Orc history and culture is feasible, but the chances of obtaining more information are now very low.
As the mural turned to ashes before their eyes, they continued with their excavation work, not noticing the differences between the weathered mural and the palace’s building materials.
Of course, even if they noticed sothing different, they wouldn’t delve into it further.
With the erosion of ti, mural weathering is natural. If the materials differ, you’d have to ask the Orcs who built the palace.
To detect the marks of ti, inspecting the pillars suffices. Who would care about a pile of dust!
As the excavation continued, the original appearance of the abandoned palace gradually revealed itself to everyone.
Unfortunately, the docuntary records everyone hoped for have yet to appear. It seems the earlier mural contained all the information.
