Chapter 365: Second Generation Modification Potion

by karlmaks — The good show Heinrich spoke of naturally referred to the "battle" starting in the practical combat testing area. There was no pre-battle mobilization, nor any flashy starting stances. Just like countless similar tests before, these out-of-control "Sentinels" launched an attack on the trenches and bunkers where the Britannian and Gallic wounded soldiers were located in the simulated environment. "Master Heinrich, if I may be so bold as to ask." Morin stood before the observation window,…

Chapter 364: You Should Be Thanking Me

by karlmaks — "When the people from the 'Eye of the Loire' Mage Order confirmed my identity, what do you think was the first thing they did?" Heinrich turned his head, his cloudy gaze sweeping over everyone. "Did they heal me? Did they offer me sanctuary?" "Neither." "The very first thing they did was lock me in specially-made anti-magic shackles, and then secretly escorted me back to Paris like a rare animal." His voice was flat, but everyone present could feel the humiliation he must have endured back…

Chapter 363: Dusty Past

by karlmaks — Victor von Heinrich didn't pay attention to Morin, but continued to maintain that somewhat arrogant posture, leaning on his bone staff and turning to walk deep into the corridor on his own. In his view, explaining an exquisite magical concept like "underlying logic" to a Saxon soldier like Morin was tantamount to casting pearls before swine. However, after noticing the traces of spells on Morin, he still stopped and looked back at Morin. "Your Excellency the Lieutenant Colonel is also a…

Chapter 362: Heinrich

by karlmaks — Upon entering the second floor, the scene before Morin and the others, as well as the source of the gunfire, instantly became clear. Here was also a spacious circular corridor, but on a much larger scale than the first floor. The ceiling was higher, the corridor wider, and there were more emergency magitech lamps on the walls. Although the lighting was still dim, they could at least see the general surrounding environment clearly. The fierce gunfire was coming from deep within the corridor to…

Chapter 361: Search and Withdrawal

by karlmaks — "Victor von Heinrich..." Master Haber repeatedly muttered this name, his voice full of unbelievable emotion. "One of His Majesty the Emperor's enlightenment tutors, the Empire's top Necromancy master, is actually... the General Director of the Gauls' 'Sentinel Project'..." Obviously, the impact this news brought him was far greater than the impact of discovering a secret underground research institute. Morin didn't speak; he just quietly looked at Master Haber's face, which was twisted by shock…

Chapter 360: Traitor

by karlmaks — "Sir, confirmed 20 killed, no survivors." A combat engineer walked up to Morin and handed over a handful of blood-stained ID documents: "They're all from the Coldstream Guards. These guys were tough; no one surrendered until the very end." Morin took the IDs and casually flipped through them. They were all sergeants and privates; not a single officer was among them. It seemed the commander of this task force company had indeed taken the rest of the men and fled deep into the research…

Chapter 359: Wonders Ruin the Country

by karlmaks — As they continuously went deeper, the surrounding light seemed to be swallowed by some invisible monster, becoming darker and darker. The dim magitech lamps on the walls originally seemed to start striking in large areas at this section due to insufficient energy supply, leaving only a few scattered ones still lingering, emitting faint light. Morin stopped his steps, holding the double-barreled shotgun in one hand, freeing up the other to grope around in the small multi-purpose pouch on his chest rig…

Chapter 358: Underground Research Institute (Top Secret)

by karlmaks — "What are you hesitating for..." Major James Hamilton, commander of the 1st Task Force Company of the Coldstream Guards, fiercely pounded the ground beside him, staring red-eyed at the three messengers: "You three! Go into the research institute right now and notify the operation team to evacuate! Tell them the main force of the Saxons is here! Get out of here, quick!" The three young messengers looked at each other in dismay. The entrance to the underground research institute seemed to them…

Chapter 357: Coordinated Attack

by karlmaks — Sometimes Morin really wanted to slap himself a couple of times. He had realized that his mouth was truly jinxed. "Damn... why can't I control this mouth of mine?" But whether he slapped himself or not, it couldn't change the established fact that Major Nicolai had brought "bad news." With things having developed to this point, Morin had no other choice but to brace himself and continue. He first looked at his system map. After Major Nicolai synced the information, the relevant targets also…
