As soon as Song Chenshi uttered the phrase “major change,” an air of tension enveloped everyone present.
Themander quickly approached her, showing utmost respect: “Mr. Song, may I inquire what you mean by this significant change?”
Mr. Song responded withposure: “Based on your reactions to those words, it seems you are already aware of it, correct? You Cavalry Guards are not cut off from the world, nor are you mere dead soldiers. For a matter of such magnitude, your special envoys must have informed you. Why ask me?”
Themander, lowering his head in trepidation, replied: “I do not wish to specte on orders from above. I ask because I heard you mention it, and if it’s not appropriate to share, please disregard my question…”
Mr. Song replied calmly: “It’s fine to share this with you, as it’s an important reason for my visit today. We need to start preparations now.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
After a brief pause, she surveyed the room and continued: “The major change indicates that the British Lord has ordered the rotation of all Cavalry Guards and their families stationed here. Some Guards will leave while their families remain, and some families will depart while their Guards stay.”
“For those whose families stay, other Cavalry Guards will take over their duties; for those whose families leave, other Cavalry Guards’ families will be brought in to be cared for by you.”
Upon hearing this, a wave of despair washed over everyone.
Even though these Cavalry Guards weren’t confined underground for eternity as the dead soldiers were, they stillcked freedom. Their lives and those of their families depended on the antidote provided by the Lord of Ennd. Defection? That was out of the question.
They would never dare to entertain such thoughts, as being cast out would mean certain death, regardless of whether the Po Qing Society pursued them.
Thus, the primary motivation behind their way of life was their families.
At least they still had their loved ones close by.
If they excelled and made significant contributions, promotions were possible. With a promotion, they could work in more crucial roles within the Governor’s Office, improving their families’ living conditions. They could even aspire to educate their children to be schrs, granting them a legitimate identity in society and a chance at a more normal life.
However, the Po Qing Society’s intent to separate them from their families was a devastating blow!
Themander, with a heavy heart, inquired: “Song Chenshi, does this mean the purpose of this blood transfusion is to sever all ties between the Cavalry Guards and their families?”<fn5d13> Newest update provided by find[?]ovel</fn5d13>
Song Chenshi, without evasion, nodded and replied: “Indeed, as long as they remain in the Cavalry Guard ranks, no one is exempt, not even you, Commander.”
He added coldly, “Loyalty to the British Lord is not merely a statement. The Grand Commander must ensure that if you ever consider defection, your family members will be rotated out. Before you decide to defect, you’ll have more ties to sever. You may escape, but if you do, your family members will be executed without exception! If you die in battle for the British Lord, your family will receive the highest level of support!”
Song Chenshi had hidden motives that he chose not to disclose to the group.
This directive for a blood transfusion did not originate from Grand Commander Wu Shutong, but from British Lord Sara.
The disappearance of all Cyprus members from the Cavalry Guards to the Death Squad led Sara to suspect that the mysterious enemy might possess a method of detoxification.
