While the Joint Action Group was putting the finishing touches on the clean-up, a grand celebration was held in Kasrai, the capital of Calvard.

President Locksmith is scheduled to deliver an official address to the public at 9 a.m. on February 1, announcing that the mysterious haze that has shrouded the entire country and the north-central part of the continent has been completely lifted, and to preside over the groundbreaking ceremony of the Resting Wall and participate in the people's lantern-bearing prayer procession.

At such an important time, the president hardly had a night off, he dressed in a costume, looked at the people gathered in the square in front of the presidential palace early in the morning, waiting to listen to the speech, although he tried to calm his heart, but he could not calm down for a long time.

As the sun rose and shone on the lawn in front of the presidential palace, a messenger brought his long-awaited news.

"Your Excellency, the Joint Operations Command, I would like to bring you the following news: Last night's raid was a complete victory, and after intense cleaning and confirmation, it has been confirmed that it was the last stronghold of the Order, and at this point, it can be determined that the mysterious Order has been destroyed. Its main cadres and followers all committed suicide after the stronghold was exposed. These include the following individuals who are wanted in the Republic of Calvard, all of whom have been confirmed dead. In addition, the relics of General Polk and evidence of his murder were found in the stronghold, which can prove that the general was taken hostage to the stronghold and killed, and was not a follower of the order. General Morris will return with General Polk's relics. ”

A series of cold news kept coming out of the messenger's mouth, and President Locksmith was greatly relieved to hear such an ending. Especially when I heard that Polk finally had a whereabouts, I couldn't help but show a happy expression.

After listening to all the reports, his expression had returned to his natural expression, he turned out the speech that had been prepared long ago, picked up the pen, and added a few words to boost the people's hearts at the end.

At the same time, inside the Sun Fortress, Duchamp handed over General Polk's box in its entirety to General Morris, who rushed to hear the news.

"I'm ashamed that I failed to fulfill your wishes, and before we could take control of this place, General Polk was killed." Cassius said apologetically.

General Morris opened the box with a blank face, took out the neatly folded military uniform on top, stroked it, and then flipped it down.

Here's some of the usual stuff. There was a notebook, probably a notebook that General Polk had written down casually, but it hadn't recorded anything for a long time.

In addition, there are two ornate pistols encrusted with huge gems, possibly from General Polk's collection, as well as a number of items whose meaning only the owner knows.

General Morris fished out a huge medal from the bottom of the box, which he held in his hand, trembled a little, and suddenly roared: "And where are his last words?" He has not repented to me, to the army, to the country, to the people of Calvard, how can he die like this! ”

He tossed the medal into the box, picked up the uniform again, and looked at it. He was even angrier at the sight of the dazzling collar flower, which he had added for Polk in his memory.

General Morris stretched out his hand, intending to tear off the collar flower, which symbolized the status of the admiral. When he touched the collar flower, his hand suddenly trembled, and then he turned one of the collar flowers over.

General Polk's last words are in the collar flower, and its material is probably a small piece of cloth taken from a shirt or something, and its content is also very simple:

"With my blood, I repent to my Motherland and people, as well as to my colleagues in the army! Stupidity or being tempted by the devil alone is not enough to excuse my sins, but I am glad that it will be the Republic of Calvard that will win, and may the Goddess forgive me. ”

Duchamp looked at the simple blood book and shrugged. General Morris, however, seemed to be greatly comforted, and he trembled, and earnestly put the little piece of bloody cloth back into the box, and went away with it.

Duchamp looked at Cassius, who seemed to be deeply affected next to him, pulled him to the side, and handed him a large bag in the corner.

"Hey, what's a big bag of Mira?"

"This was from the room of George, the last one who committed suicide last night, and I was going to search to see if there was anything related to his suicide. In addition to cash, the key is this. Duchamp pulled out a bank account from his bag and opened it, "This kind of account can only be owned by a very high-level big customer of the IBC, maybe it is the fund account of the Mysterious Order, in the name of the Joint Operations Command, you can go to seize and track it, and maybe find their secret supporters or something." ”

Cassius flipped through it, nodded and said, "If there is money in the account, it can be used for the comfort work of the victim's family." ”

These things that were taken out were carefully considered by Duchamp, the VIP account of the IBC, he didn't have the ability to use them, and the things related to General Polk, he was not interested, and other things that he didn't think was necessary to keep, were also cleaned up and turned into this big pile of debris on the ground.

As for Mira, who was estimated to have tens of millions of cash in that big bag, he was not interested in taking this kind of bloody money.

But he unceremoniously accepted the dazzling chips and crystals that he had seized at the same time as Mira, and now he was desperately short of these things.

After he directly stored the large box of Yaowafer in the package, the total number was also displayed: each of them exceeded 60,000, and some of the varieties were close to the 100,000 mark. If such a large box is brought again, then the 700,000 Yaowafers required for the upgrade of the guide workbench will be settled.

There was also a large box of pure synthetic crystals, the total number of which was estimated to be in the thousands, and it seemed that it was a replacement item prepared to maintain the protective array on the walls of the castle, and Duchamp planned to open it when no one was around.

The only thing I regret is that I didn't find a divine item that could be exchanged for ingots, and it is estimated that they were all swept away by the monster thief B.

Thinking of this, Duchamp hated it so much that he swore in his heart that he would have to get rid of this guy's lair in the future.

Now there was nothing in this stronghold that could attract Duchamp anymore, and he thought for a moment, and made a suggestion to Cassius: "Why don't we go to that place on the other side of the mine?" ”

Cassius saw that the Sun Fortress was now only left with the tail sweeping, and even the guards came in to take part in the aftermath, nodded, explained the work in hand to another guerrilla, and walked out with Duchamp.

After a night of high-intensity fighting, many of the team members who participated in last night's operation had already walked out of the castle and rested at the entrance of the castle, and greeted Cassius when they saw him come out.

"After last night's struggle, bathed in this rising sun, I really feel that my body and mind have been washed!" Cassius and Duchamp beside him made this exclamation, but there was no response, and when they turned around, they saw that the kid had put on a gangster mask that covered his entire head tightly, and stood beside him without saying a word.

Cassius thought he was funny and wanted to say something, but finally he smiled and glanced at it, and walked on.

The roads and wilderness around them were littered with the corpses of various monsters, as well as the panting and swaying members of the Crossbell State Guard who were busy cleaning up.
