Chapter XVIII: Arrest

"We have to retaliate, Farah has a close relationship with a string of attacks. At the same time, he is also a prisoner on the highest order of the Golden Council, and the Edgar government's provocation to allow Farrah and grant her asylum is a provocation to the entire Sea of Stars!"

"We really can't let Farah go, including Raymond, who has no news yet. But we have to consider that Edgar is a member of the entire Quran Union. If we take action against Edgar, we will inevitably suffer from the joint intervention of the other eight members of the Guran Union. This will be a protracted war!" the Secretary of State immediately objected.

"So what are we supposed to do? The spokesman of the Golden Council issued a strong and unscathing condemnation, and then let the international community laugh at our cowardice and incompetence?" said the head of the military bureau with cold sarcasm.

"Gentlemen, we are talking about a war! How sure can the Knights of Truth deal with nine nations at the same time?" asked Wilson, Chief of Staff, "Now that the general election is imminent, and the Speaker asks for a war, what will the Parliament think?

"You're just kidding, the Civic Reform Act is about to succeed. We will be re-elected by an unprecedented margin!" the CIA director proudly retorted with the resounding victory of the present.

"The Prophets and the Occults don't see it that way. At this time, it is self-inflicted humiliation to submit the war bill!" Party whip Russell objected: "Now is the time for our intelligence system to show its talents, we have so many agents, carry out a kidnapping, and bring Farah back to the Golden Garden for trial, this should be what we should do!"

"Mr. Speaker, why don't we try to communicate with the Edgar government again?" suggested the Secretary of Affairs.

"I have always respected you, Mr. Secretary. But do you think what you can't get on the battlefield can be obtained at the negotiating table? We don't have time to waste on all that endless nonsense with the Edgar government!" Homeland Security Director Filler stabbed unceremoniously.

The whole meeting continued to sink into endless bickering, and everyone spoke faster and faster, and the anger grew louder.

"The financial sanctions proposed by the wizard Bahrain yesterday are for us to consider!" said the deputy speaker, who had always been regarded as a mascot.

Perhaps out of respect for the second choice of the Speaker, everyone looked at him, was silent for a moment, and then continued to sneer in unison.

"Quiet, quiet, let's put this on hold for a moment. Mr. Secretary, how is the military assistance we have requested from the Tower of Babel?" Seeing that the members of the Cabinet were already arguing, Earl had to intervene to stop the argument.

"The Black Tower promised to sell us fifteen fang-type war crystals, five hundred flying carpets equipped with first-class witchcraft circles, and three thousand wands. Give us five years to pay the bills. "The Secretary of State was very satisfied with the support of the Tower of Babel this time, and even said that he was grateful. The reason why the Sea of Stars can stand as the head of the nations of the mortal international community is inseparable from the assistance of the Tower of Babel.

Outside a house in Edgar City, Nikita, with a basket in her arm and a veil on her head, pretends to be leisurely picking up at a fabric stall. Keep an eye on a food vendor not far away.

Not far from them, no less than ten people were approaching a dwelling, intentionally or unintentionally, when suddenly Nikita gestured. The two men near her nodded slightly, and each gestured to pass the message on.

By the time the officers were in place, the man haggling with the food vendor seemed tired of arguing and turned and strode away. Nikita and the others also approached all parts of the house quietly and quickly.

The moment the man in charge of the food stall passed by the door, he suddenly kicked the door open. At the same time, a short sword was drawn from the cuff.

Ahama has been doing well these days, not only making a beautiful new girlfriend but also earning a lot of money. Of course, he knew that his new girlfriend was deliberately approaching him with a purpose, but so what? he was a junior officer, and in a kingdom like Edgar, a soldier hadn't done any dirty things? He only cared about how long this woman's ** could bring him pleasure.

What a special woman she was, unlike other people from the Sea of Stars who couldn't pronounce his name accurately. The woman could pronounce the guttural voice in the middle of his name clearly.

What he looks forward to the most every day now is to linger with that ** and then go home to have dinner with his wife.

bang

The door was abruptly kicked open, and Ahama was furious. Who dared to disturb him while he was reminiscing about that good **? Whether it was that little bastard, he had already decided in an instant to take his soldiers to teach this daring bastard a hard lesson. They don't want to be in a chaotic place like the Sea of Stars, where military and government officials are bound by the so-called constitution.

In this land, from the Persian Empire onwards, the military has never been bound by secular laws.

With a big belly, Ahama put on his coat with a hideous face, and was about to pick up the war knife that had never been used.

"Put your hands where I can see, and get down on your knees with your heads in your hands!" a stern rebuke rang out, and a dozen heavily armed agents rushed into the room from all directions.

Ahama was stunned, when had he ever encountered such a battle since his father had brought him into the army?

"Don't do it, I'll do what you do!" Ahama quickly raised his hands very cooperatively, and knelt on the bed without hesitation and held his head with his hands.

"Where's Farah?" Nikita walked in from outside the agent's encirclement.

"She's gone!"

"Tell me what you know!" Nikita said he pulled his crossbow from the blue and aimed it at the half-naked man on the bed.

"Okay, okay, don't do it, what do you want to know?"

"Where did she go?"

"She should go to the Cavalry General's Mansion!"

"Abunazir?" asked Nikita

"Yes, General Nazir. My father was a comrade-in-arms with the general, and I introduced Farah to the general. ”

"What is she doing at Nazir's house, and what is her purpose?"

"I don't know much about this, but I know that Farah seems to be related to some mysterious organization, this organization has a conspiracy against the Sea of Stars, and His Majesty the King has always advocated that the Nine Nations should unite to eradicate the chaotic Golden Council! "Abu is not a king, and he is guilty of keeping this country a secret. Perhaps only in a chaotic place like the Sea of Stars in this world can there be the absurdity of the so-called citizens loyal to the country. Look at these thugs who have ventured into other countries for the sake of national interests. It's so unreasonable, it's really a land of chaos, where is Edgar's harmony? Under the rule of the king, everyone only needs to play the scene of loyalty and patriotism well.

"I hope you're telling the truth!" Nikita reached out and patted the half-naked man's face: "Take it!"

The sixth floor of the Golden Garden

The squabbles at the Cabinet meeting never ended.

"This is a major diplomatic matter! I admit that this is a dereliction of our duty, but this is only a diplomatic matter, and should be handled by the Senate, not to the point where the Knights of Truth need to intervene. Once the Military Bureau intervenes, this is war!" the Secretary of State looked at Speaker Earl earnestly.

This time, the atmosphere of the cabinet meeting was even more solemn, and the moment Edgar's information was transmitted back, the war was already on the verge of breaking out.

The Cabinet meeting did not end until late at night, and in the end the Cabinet wanted to make a last-ditch effort to resolve it peacefully.

In the office building of the Special Investigation Group, Bahrain looked at the briefing in his hand.

The briefing made a decision on Edgar's intelligence, and the Secretary of State led the officials of the Secretariat to make an official visit to Edgar to diplomatically put pressure on the Edgar court. At the same time, arrangements were made for Bahrain to accompany the delegation in the name of a microfinance firm. Nominally as part of a deal with the Golden Council, a low-interest loan aid was provided to the Edgar Commons. Members of the Special Investigation Team will infiltrate Edgar in disguise and work with Edgar's intelligence services to capture Farah.

On the other hand, the Knights of Truth will announce a military exercise near the Edgar border, making a military posture of tough threat, but still retains the minimum bottom line.

It was the strongest statement the cabinet has made without giving up military retaliation.

"Nina-Ragnar?" Bahrain suddenly noticed a name in the briefing: "Daron's daughter!" The wizard seemed a little surprised, but considering the recent policy of nationalizing the army, Daron had been dismissed, and this time the appointment of his daughter as a liaison officer of the Military Bureau should be an understandable deal. It's just that the thought of that girl with an innocent smile on her face holding such a position, can she be competent?

A yellow beetle flew swiftly across the desert, over the lake, into the city and into a heavily guarded mansion.

The veil-wearing method stretches the hand to catch the beetle and swallows. A message sounded in my head: "I will come with the regiment to join you, pause the action and wait for my order ---- eyes." ”
