The Legendary Man

Chapter 580 Formations

The coup was large enough to shift the grand scheme of things in Chanaea. Although the plan was simple, Karl had used everyone as his pawn. Malcolm and Hayes had managed to deduce by chance the almost perfect plan just from the food poisoning cases alone.

However, Hayes was so agitated that he nearly cursed when he noticed Malcolm’s reaction at that moment. When Malcolm turned to face Hayes, who was drenched in sweat while in distress, he organized his thoughts before lighting himself another cigarette with shivering hands and immediately turning to walk out of the door.

“Tiger, the factions of this battle will be led by those who are regarded as kings, so we won’t be able to handle this crisis. The only prerequisite to this enormous shift is the fall of Northern Crimson Prison, so we can stop things from progressing any further as long as we ensure the security of Northern Crimson Prison!”

Unwavering conviction filled Malcolm’s gaze. Although he was already drenched in his own sweat by that point, his voice sounded resolute, as if he were in full control of the situation.

“Soldiers!” Following his summons, a few soldiers hurried to him from the guard house next to his office.

“I will only say this once, and I will put a bullet through whoever that panics, so listen well!” Malcolm demanded emotionlessly at the soldiers.

“Lloyd, contact Asura’s Office immediately and report to them that there’s a high probability that the Eastern Army might defect from Asura’s Office and that Northern Crimson Prison might fall soon. Have Asura’s Office arrange for troops and supplies to secure the supply chain to Mysonna Army. Spencer, try to reach Excalibur King of War. Inform him that a special force from the Eastern Army of about a thousand is currently active in Mysonna, so there’s a chance that Northern Crimson Prison might fall. Request for his immediate return if the battle on his end isn’t pressing, for we are facing a crisis. Jennings, turn on the air raid alarm, and everyone is to load their guns and prepare for battle. Activate Level 1 Contingency Plan. Take action now!”

Following Malcolm’s instructions, the three soldiers who had their names called quickly acknowledged the orders loudly.

Then, Malcolm turned to another soldier. “Contact the prison hospital now. I need real-time updates on patients suffering from food poisoning!”

“Yes, Sir!”

“I have a report!”

Following the cry, a panicking soldier dashed in from the surveillance room next door.

“Commander, judging from the thermal feedback from the outpost fifty kilometers away from the west entrance, we can almost be certain that it is the special forces of the Eastern Army!”

most,” Malcolm declared broodingly. “The prison is located in the center of a desert, so logistical supplies have always been an issue. Stock for fresh produce and meat is low due to more complicated storage requirements, so the staple in the troop’s diet is canned and instant food that is impossible to poison. The troops in Northern Crimson Prison are divided into three batches, so everyone will only get to eat fresh food every three days. This is a regulation unique to us, so at least eight thousand soldiers have yet to have any fresh produce from the day before yesterday up till this very moment. I sure would like to see
