The Legendary Man

Chapter 557 Right Or Wrong

Malcolm’s words caused Horace to shake his head in resignation. “Commander Wallace, please don’t put me in a difficult position. As part of the special forces, our mission is top secret. However, if you insist on knowing, I can call my commander to check whether I can share the information with you.”

Horace had barely spoken when he reached out for the satellite phone. However, Malcolm stopped him quickly.

“Fine, fine. Of course, I know what the rules are. If you make the call, the Prince of Diyouli would definitely complain to Excalibur King of War. When that happens, I’ll be in big trouble,” Malcolm ranted after seizing the phone from Horace’s hands.

In the midst of a knowing laugh, Horace put the phone away before pointing at the watchtowers on both sides.

Malcolm’s heart skipped a beat when he trailed the trajectory of Horace’s fingers.

“Captain Queen, what are you trying to say?”

Throwing his cigarette butt aside, Horace took a look, “The Northern Crimson Prison does indeed live up to its reputation as one of the top three hardest prisons to escape. From the moment I stepped in here, I have been observing the building’s design. Just look at how the buildings are arranged. They might not look neat, but they provide the best visibility possible.

“Twelve watchtowers surround this supply depot. In the event of chaos, one only needs three towers on different sides to have eyes on the entire warehouse. Hence, as long as you have snipers stationed at the top, around thirty men, my four-hundred-strong special forces will end up as sitting ducks. Other than surrendering, we clearly have no other way out.”

Horace’s words stunned Malcolm for a fleeting moment before he threw his cigarette away and laughed softly.

“Captain Queen, I think you have misunderstood. The watchtowers within the Northern Crimson Prison are part of the living quarters of the soldiers stationed here. Even the snipers at the top are there to stop the convicts from escaping. Hence, they have nothing to do with your arrival at all.”

“I understand what you’re trying to say, Commander Wallace,” Horace replied with a sigh.

“The Northern Crimson Prison plays a very special role. Not only is it an important supply depot for the Mysonna Army, but it’s also where thirty thousand of the most hardcore criminals in Chanaea are locked up. Therefore, the precautions taken are entirely understandable.”

Taking a brief pause, Horace changed the topic.

“Don’t worry. We will leave once the repairs to our vehicles are done. After all, you have also provided us with sufficient supplies to complete the rest of our mission. That way, you and your men do not have to stand guard day and night.”

“Don’t say that.” Mysonna shook his head helplessly. “We are all soldiers under the command of Asura’s Office. Hence, it’s obvious that we trust you. Now that you’ve arrived in Mysonna on a mission, the Mysonna Army welcomes you as a guest. Just let us know if there’s anything you need.”
