Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high! Chapter 542: 437 The Legendary Road

"What are you saying? What is this talk?" a dark-faced military officer, who had been standing aside, asked seriously, "Just because it's not desertion, does that an one can casually violate military discipline and pilot a cha outside the camp? If everyone acted like that, what would be the point of military discipline?"

The person who suddenly spoke was not affiliated with any of the factions within the military region, nor was he a part of the Military Departnt itself.

The eting involved not only military officers from the barracks but also personnel from the Legal Affairs Departnt, who were crucial to this eting. It was for this reason that Weslin had no choice but to step forward to carry out justice.

If such serious breaches of discipline occurred within the Military Departnt, it would give the Legal Affairs Departnt even more justification to interfere with the affairs of the Military Departnt in the future.

As soon as the investigator from the Legal Affairs Departnt spoke up, the room once again fell into silence.

However, the investigator from the Legal Affairs Departnt obviously did not intend to let Dewa off the hook, the first to jump out. He keenly sensed the incident was filled with secrets unknown to many, and the reason the Military Departnt had not made substantial contributions to the city these years might very well be due to their bloated and corrupt system!

The investigator fixed his eyes on the dark-faced military officer standing there, just like a hawk scrutinizing its prey. The officer's recent words sounded fishy, "Officer, is the soldier who broke the rules under your command? Are you trying to cover up his serious breach of discipline?"

On hearing this, Dewa let out a wry smile and shrugged his shoulders, "I said I didn't want to offend anyone... Forget what I said, my lord. I don't have any comnts on this matter; you're free to investigate however you like."

Having said that, he sat down and kept silent, only crossing his arms and looking away.

Weslin's mouth twitched slightly, feeling that the situation couldn't continue like this.

With the people from the Legal Affairs Departnt present, it wasn't the ti for them to handle matters in-house as they pleased; they needed to co up with a formal set of procedures for handling the situation.

Although he did rather like the young man in question, it certainly wasn't worth compromising his complete control over the Military Departnt for a re soldier. It would be better to make an example of this soldier...

With a thought, Weslin cleared his throat and said sternly, "Lord Lowis is correct, military discipline must not be violated. Whoever breaks the rules of the military region must be punished severely. chas are a critical combat unit of our military region, and piloting a cha away from the camp without authorization poses a significant hazard and risk, both to the military region and to the outside world. This behavior must not be encouraged; issue a pursuit order imdiately. No matter his reasons for piloting the cha away from the camp, they are irrelevant. Upon sighting the target, shoot to kill without hesitation!"

"Cough!"

"Cough, cough!"

Weslin's decision clearly went against the wishes of many officers present.

Carlos and Hamilton almost stood up at the sa ti. However, each opened his mouth only to find, at first, that no words would co out.

The motive behind Bai E's unauthorized departure from the camp was unknown.

As long as it wasn't desertion, they were prepared to make a certain sacrifice to protect Bai E.

But the problem was, the current situation was unclear, and they dared not place their bets until they received news from the personnel sent to pursue Bai E.

If Bai E truly harbored rebellious intentions, what Carlos and Hamilton stood to lose might be much more than a little sacrifice.

Carlos and Hamilton exchanged glances, lips moving slightly. Eventually, it was Carlos who slightly lifted his chin and stated calmly, "I think Major Dewa was right, the situation is not clear enough. Why don't we wait for news from our people at the front line before making a decision?"

"..." Dewa looked sidelong at Carlos with a face full of speechlessness.

The technical departnt's in-charge personnel at the side suddenly looked up with delight, interrupting everyone's thoughts, "We've received contact from the front line! They have captured the target! They're currently on their way back."

"Good!"

"Additionally, they are still investigating the exact reasons for the target's unauthorized departure from the camp but, they have sent back a recorded video first. I wonder if..."

chas are large units, and naturally, the equipnt they carry is not limited by size.

The little gadgets Bai E made himself were already capable of ultra-long-distance communication without delay, so the new equipnt developed by the city's scientific research departnt was naturally even more powerful.

Despite the distance of a thousand miles, they were still able to transmit video files.

Weslin nodded and commanded, "Let's see it."

The opinion of his own officers under the Legal Affairs Departnt also needed to be considered.

It seed that both Carlos and Hamilton intended to protect Captain Bai, so, Weslin thought, why not do them a favor—provided the situation wasn't too serious, they might be able to present so favorable "evidence."

"Received!" The technician who received Weslin's order nodded and then tapped a few keys on the control panel in front of him. A slightly shaky recorded video appeared on the massive white screen in front of everyone.

In the video, starlight twinkled in the sky.

"What is this recording?"

"Can't see anything clearly..."

"Looks like it's on the move?"

After all, the direction of those twinkling stars was getting closer and closer.

The officers focused, watching silently.

As the shapes of sharp, angular shadows began to erge into a visible and clearly observable field, the person behind the cara drew nearer to the sparks of light.

"Robots?"

"Robots!"

"And there's a cha... Is that our deserter cha?"

As the image gradually beca closer and clearer, a series of low gasps erupted among the officers.
