Mysteries: Arcana Wars

Gloria was in the underground city of Evernight Harbor when she received the report from the Earth Hospital.

Emlyn handed Gloria a copy of Geraldine's case with annotations. After reading it, Gloria's evaluation of the young man named Emlyn White increased. Dean Sinedu chose Emlyn to take the position at this juncture because of his outstanding personal ability.

Emlyn also submitted an application in the report, requesting the Church of Night to provide Geraldine with more detailed files, such as the details of his retirement due to injury, and the wording was not very euphemistic.

It seems that this young man also has some complaints.

Emlyn was not the only one who had complaints, Gloria herself also complained. In fact, she had asked the military many times to retrieve all of Geraldine's files, but was rejected because the confidentiality period had not expired.

Even a saint of the church cannot retrieve the files, what on earth are you Auguston hiding?

Geraldine is undoubtedly a huge trouble. As a lifelong wimp, Gloria does not want to get involved in such unclear trouble, but she is the "tall one" and has to step forward and suffer first.

The core of the mystery surrounding Geraldine lies in: What kind of first-class merit did Geraldine retire because of?

Since he was a hero of the wound, why did he have to retire and be given to the church instead of staying in the army to retire?

The army is the strength of the royal family, and the Auguston royal family...

There were some strange guesses forming in her mind, which needed some verification from Apo. Gloria turned around and walked into the Earthworm Island Bar.

Due to the previous Cotton Alley explosion and the Exile riot, Field Moretti, who is played by the Comet Squad in turn, has a good relationship with the boss of Evernight Harbor.

"Good evening, Mr. Moretti, what would you like to buy today?"

The skinny bartender showed a bloody smile. As soon as Field Moretti entered Evernight Harbor, he got the news and waited in the bar on Earthworm Island instead of the bartender.

"I want some... information about the Exile riots some time ago."

"I'll tell you everything I know...as long as I'm paid."

Gloria drew out nine large bills.

"Did the exiles riot on November 11 use the standard weapons of the Loen army?"

"Yes, sir."

"What exactly did they use? Give me a list of what you know."

"Maybe you need two more glasses of wine."

Another nine Ruen Pound bills were placed on the bar counter.

The boss smiled with satisfaction. Soon, a waiter came out from the kitchen and handed a memory card to Gloria.

"I want paper."

Gloria knocked on the table. Who knows if there is any virus in the memory card? At least Scott would do that.

The attendant curled his lips, put away the memory card and went back, and soon brought back a stack of paper materials. The information was very comprehensive, not only listing the standard weapons used by the exiles, but also giving a brief introduction to each one, and attached some relevant photos after the riot.

Worth the price.

The more Gloria read the information, the more headache she had.

There is a big problem in the army.

For so many weapons to fall into the hands of these thugs, someone with great power must have betrayed them.

A journalist who made great contributions but was expelled from the army, a large number of weapons flowing into the black market, and top-secret files that cannot be retrieved...

The army was shrouded in doubt, but Gloria was a little confused. The enemy should be hiding under the banner of Auguston, secretly planning everything, working together from inside and outside.

I just don’t know whether the current Auguston royal family has discovered these potential dangers.

After thinking for a moment, Gloria had a bold idea.

Since Geraldine is the key figure in this military mystery, it would be better to release her directly from the hospital and see if she can lure out those people hiding in the army.

A great hero who had won the first-class merit was not well taken care of in a military sanatorium and then widely publicized, but was hastily discharged from the army and handed over to the church.

Is this guy in the army afraid?

What were they afraid of? That Geraldine knew their secret and that her continued presence in the army would undermine their operations?

Or did Geraldine come into contact with things she shouldn't have while doing dirty work for the army, and become an uncontrollable time bomb?

These are all speculations, and the truth is unknown. Gloria can only try to find out the truth of the incident from Geraldine's recurring nightmare.

Gloria had always been wary of Geraldine, fearing that the dream maze she had built for her would not be able to suppress the contamination in her. But now, in an extraordinary period, Gloria felt that she should adopt some bold strategies to speed up the investigation process.

"Another drink, sir."

"Has anyone been asking about me lately?"

Gloria pulled out another wad of cash.

[Field Moretti] This name has a special meaning to Gloria and her husband, and it is likely to bring some unexpected changes.

Although the Comet Squad is performing well at the moment, Gloria still doesn't want Field Moretti to become too famous and cause unnecessary trouble.

“Yes, there are some, but most of these discussions and inquiries point to your excellent business ability on the Death List.

"But recently, I have begun to hear some rumors about your actions during the Exile Rebellion."

"…I was not in the dungeon on November 11th."

"Yes, so these are just some fabricated rumors. But your powerful performance in the Cotton Alley bombing, and your cleanup of the dungeon over the past two months, have gradually spread in the dungeon and become the nutrient for many rumors. So, it is not incomprehensible that people would associate this with your slaughter of the exiles on the day of the riot."

"..."

In a sense, this is true. As the commander that day, Gloria was also a massacre in another sense, indirectly killing countless people.

But what surprised Gloria was that the boss of Evernight Harbor even knew about her secret cleanup of the dungeon. It seemed that this boss's methods and channels were not simple.

"This rumor that [Field Moretti killed a large number of people in the riot of the exiles in the dungeon] is currently only a conspiracy theory among a few people, but I think that even if the intelligence information in the dungeon is transmitted slowly, this rumor will eventually spread in Backlund's underground world. It's only a matter of time."

“For the next six months, I’m going to buy out the news about me.”

Gloria decided.

"If someone asks about me, you must tell me immediately and tell me what the other person looks like. At the same time, if someone else asks questions about me, you cannot answer such questions and say that the information has been bought by someone else.

"I only need six months. After six months, you can say whatever you want. It's up to you.

"Didn't you say before that you owed me a favor? After this month, we'll be even."

"…This can only slow down the spread of rumors, but it cannot completely eliminate them. What is coming will eventually come back."

"I understand. I'm sure about this deal. I just don't want to argue with them for now."

The boss of Evernight Harbor thought for a moment, then stretched out his bony hand, grabbed Gloria and shook her hand vigorously.

"make a deal!"
