Ethereal Ascendance: A Journey of Transformation(Vol 5)

Vol 5/ Chapter 124: The Rebels

"What's going on? What happened inside the base?"

The farewell ceremony suddenly turned chaotic. Wayne Peng was in charge of the event. He ordered someone to quickly escort the big bosses away, while calling around on his phone to find out what was happening.

"How did you guys mess up so badly? Even with such tight security, you let them secretly plot and form a rebel group!"

Wayne Peng soon got some news. He angrily scolded the person on the phone. But then he seemed to hear some good news. His tense face relaxed a bit. He gave several orders:

"Oh, that's good! Find those people quick. This has already alarmed the higher-ups. We can deal with punishments later. But now you must make up for your mistake. Search harder and guard every exit. Don't let any criminals escape!"

"Rebels?"

I don't know how others reacted, but I was really surprised Wayne Peng used that word. What could make the H-country military have a mutiny? And in the Shine Metropolitan! It made no sense at all!

Unless...

"Sorry, this is so sudden. Can you stay a bit after the farewell? I might need to borrow the angels' power after we finish the send-off!"

Wayne Peng put down his phone. He told someone to calm the crowd, then walked straight over to me and Cyra.

"Vampires, right?"

I nodded and got straight to the point. Of course we'd help. It was an easy way to earn goodwill, so why not?

"This is really embarrassing!"

Since I figured it out right away, Wayne Peng couldn't hide it anymore. He could only admit it with a bitter smile.

"Those two criminals we brought in yesterday somehow infected a bunch of soldiers guarding them! They not only secretly freed the criminals, but also tried to gather forces and break out of the base! Luckily, the troops stationed outside stopped and suppressed them. Now the base is working hard to count everyone involved. Also, those two escaped vampires haven't been caught yet. We don't know where they're hiding. We still don't really understand this light element, dark element stuff you talked about. To solve this quickly, I guess we can only ask you angels for help!"

"How could you be so careless? You knew about vampire powers but didn't pay more attention!"

Cyra couldn't help scolding them after hearing this. It was a bit harsh, but I agreed with her this time.

The H-country military had dealt with vampires before. Vampires are much stronger than normal people. If you're not careful, they can easily take advantage!

These two criminals were the ones who kidnapped Irene yesterday. I think since they knew how dangerous they were, they shouldn't have kept them alive in the first place. Why bother with interrogations?

"You're absolutely right. We'll definitely learn from this mistake!"

Since he needed our help, Wayne Peng was very flexible and polite. Seeing him so agreeable, Cyra felt bad about being lazy. She generously promised to help them find those two vampires!

"What exactly happened? Are we in danger? And is this farewell ceremony still going on? Your government officials left early, but what about us? We were supposed to go through the portal soon. How long do we have to wait?"

Katarina and her group couldn't wait anymore. They led the imperial delegation over to us.

As an imperial princess, and one who might rule in the future, she spoke a bit meekly to the Earth people. But for her own safety, she had to ask what was going on.
